Chapter 464: Chapter 176 Slash! Slash! Slash! (6k)_4
After taking the Spirit Stones, the two dared not stay any longer and quickly left.
Whether it was Li Hanshan or the Blood Bone Old Ghost, both of their Soul Lamps were surely extinguished at this moment. Although the Sect Leaders of the Three Sects Alliance had left, those from the Cangyan Daoist Palace and Phecda Sect were still unaware.
"Don’t worry, I have the Imaging Stone of them making the first move!" Lu Yaoyao held the Imaging Stone tightly while speaking on the flying sword.
Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "Only what is presented in front of others is evidence."
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao nodded thoughtfully and then increased the speed of the flying sword again.
Two days later, they appeared in a city named Lin’an City. Looking at the bustling crowd, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense nerves relaxed.
"In a couple of days, our sect members will come to investigate. We just need to wait quietly now!" Zhou Qing said slowly, looking at the lively city.
Lu Yaoyao also smiled and hurriedly took Zhou Qing to a clean and tidy inn.
They asked for a quiet room so Zhou Qing could rest well, while she guarded the door of the room to protect him.
Fortunately, the injuries were relatively light this time, mostly due to exhaustion, and would only need time to recover slowly.
Day by day passed. On the fourth day, Lu Yaoyao excitedly ran inside, followed closely by He Han and Pei Yan.
At this moment, the two had respectful and complex expressions on their faces as they looked at Zhou Qing. They never expected that in just a few days, Zhou Qing had killed both Li Hanshan and the Blood Bone Old Ghost.
"Junior Brother Zhou, you are safe!" He Han said, looking at Zhou Qing.
But after saying this, he felt his words were a bit redundant and could only smile awkwardly.
Zhou Qing stood up and thanked the two profusely.
"Are any elders here?" Zhou Qing asked.
Pei Yan nodded and said, "The nine cities around Canglan Mountain are key targets of the investigation. My master and an elder from the Golden Thunder Sect have come. Besides them, there are hundreds of disciples. By the way, I saw people from the Cangyan Daoist Palace earlier."
Zhou Qing nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Please contact Uncle Tong for me. I have something to report."
Pei Yan nodded, took out her Identity Token, and made contact.
About half an hour later, Peak Master Tong Min of Yuqing Peak hurried over. Pei Yan briefly explained the situation outside first. Tong Min listened, his face first showing anger, but soon turning to shock.
After entering the room, Zhou Qing took out a corpse and Lu Yaoyao’s Imaging Stone.
"Please, Uncle Tong, uphold justice!" Zhou Qing bowed respectfully and said.
Although the two were slain, with Blood Bone’s very body destroyed, it was still unclear whether they had acted under someone’s orders.
At the very least, for the Demon King Hou Mountain, it showed no respect and indifference to the loss of the Holy Medicine.
How to handle this would be up to the Sect Leaders.
Tong Min looked at Li Hanshan’s body and his iconic weapon, the halberd, with disbelief.
Five prodigies of the Cangyan Daoist Palace, all fallen at Zhou Qing’s hands. Who would believe this?
Our Taiqing Sect has a chance to rise!
"Rest assured, we will give you a proper explanation!" Tong Min solemnly promised Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing thanked him again.
"By the way, regarding the gray-robed man who stole from Senior Hou Mountain, I found some clues." Zhou Qing quickly shared the brief information given by the system.
Everyone’s eyes lit up at once. If it was like finding a needle in a haystack before, now at least they had a more precise target.
Lu Yaoyao looked puzzled.
When did you find this out? Why didn’t I know?
But soon, her confusion turned into full admiration.
