Finally, his gaze landed on the oddly pale Si Ma Hundred Households, who frowned and asked, "Si Ma Hundred Households, I remember not long ago, your men took these two into the great prison."
"Why have you brought them out now? And, you were just leading people into the great prison to inspect what was beneath, weren’t you? Something must have happened, right?"
Si Ma Hundred Households really wanted to say: I’ve been taken hostage! Stop asking and call for some powerful reinforcements to save me!
But he was compelled by the subtly domineering aura emanating from Fan Wu behind him,
and by Fan Wu’s astonishing display of combat power within the great prison.
The words in his heart, when they reached his mouth...
became another set of comments: "This is just a small misunderstanding. The two individuals behind me... the two stalwart cultivators, they are not any suspects. It was my mistake in arresting the wrong people, I was just taking them away from the Heaven Mandated Department."
Having said that, Si Ma Hundred Households added, "Inside the great prison... there is nothing unusual inside the great prison. I’ve already taken people down to check, whether it’s the first layer, the second layer, or the third layer, there are no problems."
When Si Ma Hundred Households heard this, his eyes narrowed subtly. He stepped aside, allowing Si Ma Hundred Households, Fan Wu, and Yun Jiuqing, to leave the Heaven Mandated Department.
After the three had walked a distance away,
he furrowed his brows.
"Sir Si Ma, Si Ma Hundred Households seems a bit off. In my memory, he is not usually like this. It feels as though he has more to say but dares not to speak."
"Moreover, the subordinates of Si Ma Hundred Households were running towards various places outside of the Heaven Mandated Department earlier, and it’s unknown what they were up to. They wouldn’t answer when asked."
"I always feel that there’s something strange about them."
A subordinate spoke up.
Si Ma Hundred Households nodded and replied, "I’ve also noticed that the guy is somewhat off. Get a few people to go down into the great prison and see what’s happened."
"The rest of you stay and guard the Heaven Mandated Department headquarters. And you two, follow me and quietly tail Si Ma Hundred Households."
One who could become a Hundred Households of the Heaven Mandated Department
was never a fool.
Anyone could see that there was something clearly wrong with Si Ma Hundred Households.
Just as Si Ma Hundred Households was about to take two men to quietly follow Fan Wu and the others... the subordinates he had sent to take a look at the great prison earlier came running back in a more flustered manner.
This made Si Ma Hundred Households pause: "So soon? What’s happened inside the great prison?"
"Sir... Sir Si Ma!" The subordinate had a look of shock on his face as he hastily replied, "The great prison... many of the strange creatures, evil cultivators, and wicked spirits imprisoned there... are mostly gone!"
"I just interrogated an evil cultivator who was still imprisoned there, and he said that a very burly and robust cultivator had..."
"practically killed a huge group of those strange creatures, wicked spirits, and evil cultivators... clean!!!"
"Hardly a few are left!!!"
The news made Si Ma Hundred Households’ mustache tremble as he stared wide-eyed in disbelief. He didn’t think about following Si Ma Hundred Households, but instead, without a second word, he ran towards the great prison.
Hearing is false.
Seeing is believing.
And the result.
When he saw the scene inside the great prison, he was almost dumbfounded... because what the subordinate had told was true.
The creatures, wicked spirits, and evil cultivators in the great prison...
had almost been wiped out!
"A burly and robust cultivator... burly... isn’t that the large cultivator behind Si Ma Hundred Households?"
Si Ma Hundred Households sharply inhaled, and hurriedly yelled, "Quick! Everyone follow me and catch up to Si Ma Hundred Households! It must be the man behind Si Ma Hundred Households who caused this mess in the great prison!"
"And!"
"Quickly inform the Head of Thousand Households!!!"
"..."
...
Walking among the bustling crowd of Nanjun Prefecture, Head of Fu Family’s mind was a tangled mess. He wondered if the signals he sent with his eyes were effective. His subordinates should understand his meaning, right?
And that Si Ma Hundred Households, should be able to barely notice that he was acting oddly by now, shouldn’t he?
All he could hope for was that his subordinates would quickly inform the Fu Clan so that they could make preparations in advance.
He only wished that his subordinates would also pass the message to the Thousand Households.
Because he felt...
Only the Thousand Households could capture such a ferociously extreme bandit.
If the Family Head of the Fu Clan, also his father, Head of Fu Family, were still at the peak of his cultivation, he believed that his father’s prowess would suffice to take down the bandit.
But his father had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation, and the lingering injuries from his youth meant that he required a unique secret technique just to cling to life.
He wasn’t confident that his father in such a state could handle a bandit so fierce.
Damn it! Had he known the bandit was this sharp, he wouldn’t have interfered with Xin Feng Building, he should have just given it up. However... giving up Xin Feng Building would lead to no small loss for the Fu Clan and impact his father’s recovery.
Because his father needed those evil spirits to collect a large amount of Yang energy to sustain the secret technique.
To cling to life.
Now...
Regret was futile.
...
A good while later.
The Fu Clan.
They had arrived! 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"Daoist Priest Fan, this is the Fu Clan, this collusion between officials and merchants, no tricks played." Yun Jiuqing looked at the vast estate of the Fu Clan in front of her and immediately confronted Fan Wu, "I came here with my father when I was little, and I remember the Head of the Fu Family being very sinister."
Yun Jiuqing continued, "Or rather, everything about the Fu Clan, from top to bottom, seemed very sinister. It always felt strange, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on how."
"If Xin Feng Building is really linked to the Fu Clan, then I feel my childhood impressions weren’t wrong!"
Hmm?
Head of Fu Family was startled and turned to glance at Yun Jiuqing, who was speaking, feeling a bit taken aback.
This bandit had been to the Fu Clan with her father when she was a kid?
What was her identity?!
It was at this moment, with a perplexed and astonished expression, that he looked more closely at Yun Jiuqing’s face. He vaguely felt that this face was somewhat familiar.
But it seemed the bandit had altered some details of her face.
Making it difficult for him to recognize her at a glance.
"Daoist Priest Fan, this Fu Clan is not so simple. For the Fu Clan to hold their ground among the major families of Nanjun, they must have something exceptional about them," warned Yun Jiuqing, "I think maybe we should first give a heads-up to my father..."
"Eh?!!"
As Yun Jiuqing was speaking, she suddenly realized... Daoist Priest Fan, who had been standing beside her, had vanished!
She turned her head, looking around.
And saw...
Daoist Priest Fan, with the Demon-slaying Sword on his back, had left Old Blue Ox behind and was heading straight towards the Fu Clan estate!
This...
This was way too direct and violent, wasn’t it?
Yun Jiuqing was dumbfounded.
