After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 58 What, Something Big Happened Again?

Chapter 58: What, another big event?

In the Zhou family genealogy, the number of people decreased by one.

After Zhou You's death, Zhang Chi was worried that it wasn't secure enough, so he cremated his body.

Cultivators are more likely to turn into ghosts, but as long as their bodies turn to ashes, they can't.

Afterwards, Zhang Chi also found the cold arrow shot by Zhou You and used spiritual fire to burn it, then he cleaned up the traces he left in the small forest.

After confirming that there were no loopholes, he calmly left.

In his previous life, he was a criminal lawyer, so he had a lot of experience in breaking the chain of evidence... Ahem, it's not convenient to talk about this.

Later, Zhang Chi calculated the time to arrive at Sword Sect at the speed of a Qi Condensation disciple.

Since Zhou You's assassination was done in secret, it was impossible for too many people to know about it.

He was the only one ambushing in the small forest, without even finding a helper.

Perhaps, no one knew about his assassination.

When Zhou You died, Chong Xu, who was in a meeting, had a sense of foreboding. His eyebrows twitched as if something bad had happened.

"Elder, what do you think?"

Chong Xu didn't have time to think deeply, Jiang Qingyun had already thrown a question at him. They were now discussing the appointment of the new head of the Spiritual Stone Sect.

Helpless, Chong Xu had to deal with the matters here first.

Zhang Chi returned to Sword Sect and visited Chen Runyu again. Chen Runyu's injuries had recovered well. After staying for a while, Zhang Chi left.

When he left, Chen Runyu was still lying in bed resting, so he instructed, "Xiao Zi, go and see off Senior Brother."

Zi Mian was reluctant in her heart. She always felt that Zhang Chi came to see Chen Runyu because of her.

But she had no choice but to comply.

Her intuition was correct. After leaving, Zhang Chi gave her a signal and said, "I still have some healing medicine at my place, come with me to get it!"

Zi Mian: "..."

She started to panic.

Yesterday, Zhang Chi didn't do anything to her, probably because the situation was complicated and he was worried that someone would come looking for him at any time.

But today, he had no reservations.

Thinking of what Tang Ruoling had said about her being repeatedly humiliated, Zi Mian's steps became slower and slower.

Zhang Chi knew what she was afraid of and didn't urge her.

He wanted her to experience the feeling of gradually falling into the abyss.

Wanting to escape, but unable to.

Zi Mian dragged her feet all the way, but still arrived at Zhang Chi's room. After entering and closing the door, Zhang Chi's originally kind face became very stern.

"I'm glad you came obediently, but I'm very dissatisfied with your procrastinating attitude."

Zi Mian's heart sank, feeling immense pressure.

Zhang Chi remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "I called you here to help me with something. Elder Qinghui has escaped, go and kill him. Tomorrow, I want to hear news of Qinghui's death."

"Ah?"

"What's wrong, can't do it?"

"It's not that, it's just that killing someone as an assassin also takes some time. One day is too rushed."

The Fengyu Tower can complete their tasks so well not only because they have a professional team of assassins, but also because they have professional intelligence personnel.

They can accurately locate the target, customize the assassination opportunity, and finally let the assassin make a move, rather than the assassin directly going over and killing.

"That's your problem, figure it out yourself. I only want results."

Zhang Chi wouldn't show any mercy to Zi Mian. After all, this was someone who had tried to kill him.

"I understand."

Zi Mian felt angry in her heart, but could only swallow her anger.

Zhang Chi asked again, "If I asked you to assassinate Chong Xu, could you do it?"

"With the influence of Fengyu Tower in the southwest, it's difficult to do that."

This statement from Zi Mian could be understood as the main influence of Fengyu Tower not being in the southwest, and it wasn't a lie.

Zhang Chi didn't mind. It was just a casual question, and finding out that Zi Mian was the assassin was a pleasant surprise. He had already thought of other ways to deal with Chong Xu, but assassination was the simplest.

"If you can't do it, forget it. As long as you do your job seriously, I won't make things difficult for you."

This was the way of a boss. When it was necessary, exert pressure, but when it was time to relax, don't push people too hard.

He took out a few medicine packets and handed them to Zi Mian, indicating that she could leave.

Zi Mian hurriedly took the medicine and went back, while also controlling a puppet near Qinghui.

At this time, Qinghui had already reached the border of He You.

The boat that sent him away was controlled by Zi Mian.

Because Qinghui was Zi Mian's subordinate.

Qinghui's plan failed, causing subsequent plans to be unable to be carried out. This time, the Purple Green Sword Pavilion also suffered heavy losses.

The heaviest loss was that the boss had also suffered.

Fortunately, Zi Mian's identity as the only boss had not been exposed yet. Otherwise, the Purple Green Sword Pavilion would be surnamed Zhang in the future.

Seeing Qinghui, Zi Mian couldn't help but feel some anger.

"Lord Zi Mian."

Qinghui knew that his situation was not good, and his attitude became much more humble.

"Somebody has put a price on your head."

Zi Mian became angry when he mentioned this.

To have a killer kill someone and not pay, isn't that freeloading?

This kind of behavior cannot be tolerated, so she had to say that she had paid.

Upon hearing this, Qinghui immediately became anxious.

"Who wants to kill me? I'll pay double, just don't kill me."

As Qinghui retreated, he also guarded against Zi Mian's sudden attack.

Zi Mian said coldly, "I want to kill you. Is your vigilance useful?"

"I dare not."

Qinghui's scalp tingled, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

This Zi Mian person brought him too much pressure.

"In the future, you will hide your identity and lurk in He You to do things for me. I will publicly announce that you are dead. If someone finds you, you should know the consequences."

"I understand."

Qinghui agreed quickly. Hiding his identity was not a big deal.

What he was actually afraid of was the latter.

Chong Xu helped him escape from the Sword Sect, but of course, he also left a means to restrict him.

That was Qinghui's soul lamp.

No matter where Qinghui was, as long as Chong Xu held Qinghui's soul lamp, he could find him, unless he was dead.

Qinghui was well aware of this, but he didn't dare to tell Zi Mian, lest Zi Mian kill him right away.

Anyway, as long as others didn't know he was still alive, Chong Xu had no reason to betray him, right?

At this time, Qinghui still didn't know that he had killed Zhou You.

Zhou You's death was only discovered after nightfall.

After the meeting, Chong Xu remembered his previous uneasiness and decided to call his children and grandchildren over.

As a result, his grandson Zhou Ran was still there, but Zhou You was nowhere to be found.

They searched everywhere but couldn't find him. Chong Xu knew that something had happened.

He sent more disciples to search, and finally, in a small grove, they found Zhou You's sword, some partially burned clothes nearby, and ashes all over the ground.

If his guess was correct, Zhou You should be here.

Of course, he might not be intact.

The wind today was a bit noisy, and it might have blown away some parts...

The news spread to the Left River League, shocking all the factions!

Just when they had just returned home, they had to go and watch the show again?
