Sister takes space and bravely enters the world of cultivation

Chapter 1308: The Zhu Family Makes Trouble at Midnight

In the evening, Lingyou and the other three came back. As soon as they entered the door, they couldn't wait to report to Wanqi Yuan's brother Fu Ling'er.

"Sister Ling, Brother Yuan, after listening to Sister Ling's description of those people today, we immediately went around asking around to find out their origins. There were so many witnesses at the scene, and we split up and asked around, and finally our efforts were not in vain. Just when we were about to give up, we finally got an extremely important clue from an eyewitness. He said with certainty that he had seen one of the dead among the Zhu family's guards. After we got this clue, we went to Qianji Pavilion again. Here, here is all the information about the Zhu family bought from Qianji Pavilion," Lingyou handed Fu Ling'er a booklet.

Fu Ling'er opened the booklet and saw that the yellowed paper recorded every detail of the Zhu family, from the family history and industry distribution of the Zhu family to the birth date and personality traits of each member, and even those unknown secrets and scandals were recorded one by one.

Her eyes fell on one of the pages, which clearly stated: "The son born to the concubine of the head of the Zhu family is actually the illegitimate offspring of her affair with a man outside her family." Such a private matter could be investigated clearly. Fu Ling'er couldn't help but take a breath, secretly marveling at the intelligence gathering ability and thoroughness of Qianji Pavilion. The level of detail of this information far exceeded her imagination, as if the entire Zhu family was exposed nakedly in front of her, with no privacy at all.

"Yuan, take a look." Fu Ling'er handed the booklet to Wanqi Yuan, and then continued to say to Ling You,

"Has the Zhu family had any dealings with the Ghost Demon Pavilion recently?"

"No, but someone from Qianji Pavilion said that an alchemist came to the Zhu family a few days ago. I heard that this alchemist is quite capable and should be here for the Alchemist Competition."

"Alchemist? I have no grudge against the Zhu family. They can't possibly send someone to assassinate me. The purpose is so clear, it must be related to the Ghost Demon Pavilion. Do you know where this alchemist is from?"

"I heard that the Zhu family invited foreign aid from Qianyuan City in the Central Region. Sister Ling, Qianyuan City is the headquarters of the Ghost Demon Pavilion."

"That's it. Let's go to the Zhu family tonight and meet the alchemist from Guisha Pavilion," Fu Ling'er said hatefully.

"Sister Ling, there is only one alchemist. I can handle it by myself. If you are worried, you can ask Brother Xuanchen to come with you. You can stay in the B&B and wait for our news," Xiao Zi volunteered. They were not with Sister Ling today and failed to help her in time. They were all angry and had no place to vent.

"I'll go too," Ling You also said, his tone was firm, and he looked like if he was not allowed to go, he would go secretly.

“…………Okay, you can make your own arrangements tonight.” Finally, Fu Ling’er compromised. Since they wanted to go, let them go. Anyway, she was not worried that they would encounter danger. She had confidence in their abilities.

"What about me? I want to go too. Brother Lingyou, please take me with you. I promise not to cause any trouble for you." Zhuge Qiao became anxious when she heard that there was no place for her. They had agreed to go together, so why did she have to be left behind?

"Qiao'er, don't go. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you. Be obedient, we will be back soon," Lingyou disagreed.

“But don’t we all have to advance and retreat together and make progress together? You can’t just let me hide behind you when there’s danger? I also need to make progress and improve my combat capabilities. I don’t want to stand still.” Zhuge Qiao looked at everyone with firm eyes and a stubborn expression.

"Sister Qiao is right, let's take her with us," Fu Ming'er finally made the decision. She felt that Zhuge Qiao's idea was correct and should be supported. As for the danger, she must have considered it more carefully than anyone else.

So, the friends prepared to go to Zhu's house at midnight.

However, that night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, they sneaked into the Zhu family like ghosts. They were very careful along the way, avoiding all factors that might expose their whereabouts, and finally successfully found the courtyard where the mysterious alchemist lived.

Just as they were about to approach quietly, three black shadows suddenly flew out from the courtyard wall like lightning. The three people were dressed in black and moved as swiftly as cheetahs. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the darkness, as if they had never appeared.

Ling You and the others were startled, fearing that their hiding figures would be discovered by the other party and return.

So Lingyou used his concealment skills to cover up the breath of several people, and quickly hid on a big tree beside the courtyard wall, holding his breath. At this moment, everything was silent, with only the rustling sound of the leaves in the night wind.

They pricked up their ears nervously, listening carefully to see if there was any unusual movement in the yard. Time passed by, but the yard remained quiet, without a single sound. This deathly silence made them feel uneasy, wondering what was going on inside.

Could it be that the people inside were killed? Who were those people just now?

This Zhu family is really something, they have too many enemies?

"You guys wait here, I'll go in and see what's going on." Ling You asked a few people to wait here, and without saying a word, he turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared on the tree branch.

After just a few breaths, a puff of black smoke stopped on the tree branch again. It was Lingyou who came back.

"Let's go, there's no one inside."

"No one? Who leaked the news? Ran away? Damn it, now that I'm here, there's no way I can go back like this. You guys go wait for me outside the Zhu family, I'll be back soon," Xiao Zi said and went to the Zhu family mansion like lightning.

"Xiao Zi..." Xuan Chen wanted to take him with him, but he spoke too slowly and Xiao Zi disappeared.

"Let's go, let's go out first." Ling You called out to Xuan Chen who was ready to move. When he didn't know what he was going to do, Xiao Zi alone was enough.

"Qiao Er, let's go."

After a while, the three of them appeared outside the Zhu family mansion quietly as if they were in an empty place.

Without letting the three wait too long, Xiao Zi rushed out of the courtyard wall without stopping, and flew away, leaving two words at the hiding place of the three people,

"Come on."

There was no time to ask Xiao Zi what was going on. The three of them followed Xiao Zi tacitly and disappeared from the spot.

The next second after they disappeared, five or six black shadows flew out from the courtyard wall and chased after them, but the thieves were nowhere to be found.

"Damn it, did you see what the thief looked like?"

"No, I just felt a flash of purple light. The light was too dazzling, so I subconsciously closed my eyes, and then the shadow disappeared."

"Let's go back and see if anything important is lost. Otherwise, the head of the family will skin us alive," the leading man quickly retreated to Zhu's house.
