“Is that so?”

“Well, it seems like it.”

Jiang Xiaoyu scratched his head, finding Su Yang’s words reasonable.

After confirming that nothing had happened, they walked for a while and arrived at the headquarters of the Martial Suppression Division in Kaiyang

City.

“Officer Luo Hongsheng pays respects to the honorable guest.”

“Hmm.”

“Tell me, what’s the situation in Kaiyang City?”

Su Yang sat in the main seat, with Jiang Xiaoyu and Gu Xiu standing on either side of him.

Under Luo Hongsheng’s explanation, Su Yang didn’t obtain any useful information.

Because of everything Luo Hongsheng said, he had already heard from the people.

“So… you have no clues regarding this demonic cultivation?”

Demonic cultivation referred to special demonic beasts or evil immortals, it was a general term.

“Well…” Luo Hongsheng wiped the nonexistent sweat off his forehead. “Sir, I’m still investigating, and the entire Martial Suppression Division is taking action.”

Though Su Yang was displeased, he couldn’t do anything to Luo Hongsheng.

Even if he didn’t perform well, he hadn’t made any mistakes.

“I heard that the Luo Family and the Green Willow Villa in the city are also investigating the drought situation. Do they have any intelligence?”

Su Yang furrowed his brow and asked.

“The Luo Family inquired yesterday but didn’t gather any useful information,” Luohongsheng replied. “As for the Green Willow Villa, I went to inquire a few days ago but didn’t find any useful leads.”

Luo Hongsheng stood honestly before Su Yang.

“You’ve been stationed in Kaiyang City for six months and haven’t noticed anything unusual?”

“I truly haven’t noticed anything, perhaps because my abilities are

insufficient.

Luo Hongsheng could only come up with this excuse.

“Forget it… I’ll find out for myself.”

“You keep searching.”

Su Yang could only plan to investigate personally.

However, before that, he intended to visit the Green Willow Villa to gather information.

Perhaps after a few more days, they might have obtained some leads.

Su Yang left the Martial Suppression Division.

After he departed, Luo Hongsheng watched his direction with a hint of worry.

If he couldn’t find anything, then…

Soon, things would return to normal here…

After leaving the Martial Suppression Division, Su Yang’s sword intent diffused, spreading like a spider web throughout Kaiyang City.

Unfortunately, no matter how carefully he sensed, he couldn’t find any trace of a disturbance.

If there were really evil immortals present, their cultivation would cause fluctuations.

Even if they were slight, Su Yang’s sword intent would be able to perceive them.

But since there was nothing, it was possible that the evil immortals weren’t cultivating or weren’t within this range.

Su Yang didn’t retract his sword intent and instead let it envelop the entire city.

This way, he would be instantly aware of any situation that arose.

Next, Su Yang inquired about the location of the Green Willow Villa and hurried there.

Inside the Green Willow Villa.

After presenting his Patrol Department token, Su Yang was courteously invited inside.

Of course, it might also have been due to him arriving on a flying sword.

“Master Fu, my main purpose for coming here is to understand the cause of the drought,” Su Yang straightforwardly stated upon entering.

“I heard from the people here that you are also investigating. Do you have any leads?”

“The cause of the drought is likely due to an evil immortal cultivating within Kaiyang City,” Fu Zhong said. “However, there hasn’t been any recent activity, and we haven’t pinpointed their location.”

Fu Zhong shared what he knew.

“Oh? You’ve already narrowed down the general area?” Su Yang was surprised. He hadn’t expected Fu Zhong to have discovered something.

Luo Hongsheng didn’t mention anything about this…

This guy is truly useless, or is he hiding something?

Su Yang narrowed his eyes.

“Yes, we’ve narrowed down the area, but that’s about it,” Fu Zhong said. “If you want more detailed information, you may want to inquire with Luo Tian from the Luo Family.”

“He seems to have discovered something, but he hasn’t told me.”

Thinking back to the investigation, Fu Zhong had interacted with Luo Tian.

It seemed like Luo Tian held some clues.

Luo Hongsheng… Are you hiding something from me?

If Green Willow Villa knows some information that you don’t, that’s understandable.

But even Luo Family doesn’t know.

Then what do you know?

“Alright, I understand. Thank you, Master Fu, for your information.”

Su Yang clasped his fists and prepared to leave.

“Lord Su, no need to be polite. It is the good fortune of Kaiyang City to have you here to resolve the drought situation.”

Master Fu returned the gesture. It was a small matter in a small place, but having a grandmaster personally handle it was truly the good fortune of Kaiyang City.

After leaving the Green Willow Villa, Su Yang returned to Kaiyang City.

Instead of confronting Luo Hongsheng directly, he first went to the Luo Family.

Upon arriving at the Luo Family, Su Yang presented his identity and soon met Luo Tian, just as before.

“I heard from Master Fu that you have some understanding of the drought situation here. Is it true?” Su Yang inquired.

Luo Tian’s face showed a trace of hesitation. “Replying to Sir, I do have some information, but I’m not certain if it’s true or not.

“I have a question for you,” Luo Tian slowly continued. “If this person is an official, how do you plan to handle it?”

Luo Tian’s question seemed inexplicable, but Su Yang sensed an underlying meaning.

Perhaps Luo Tian’s gathered information involved officials, and he was afraid that Su Yang would protect them.

“Based on the current situation in Kaiyang City, where a region is suffering from drought and the people are in unbearable pain, if the person responsible is an official, then they should be executed!” Su Yang calmly expressed his thoughts.

Officials who allowed their jurisdiction to reach such a state were even more detestable than the wealthy families and powerful individuals.

And the situation was more severe here, with an entire region suffering from drought. How many people were affected?

The population within Kaiyang City alone started at sixty thousand!

Su Yang wouldn’t forgive someone just because they were an official, his colleague. He would punish them even more severely!

Upon hearing Su Yang’s response, Luo Tian also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.

“With your promise, Sir, I shall speak truthfully.”

“I suspect that the person responsible for this is Luo Hongsheng, the leader of the Martial Suppression Division.”

Although Su Yang had already started suspecting Luo Hongsheng, upon hearing this answer, his anger flared up.

Luo Hongsheng… You are an official responsible for the lives of the people! Su Yang closed his eyes and took a moment to calm himself before speaking.

“Do you have any evidence?”

“When I say this, it means that I do.”

Luo Tian took out a small, earth-yellow bead from his pocket. “I possess a special tracking method that allows me to sense vague changes in the world. It’s unstable, sometimes effective, sometimes not. About half a month ago, I sensed cultivation activity from the evil immortal.”

“Following my senses, I tracked it to an abandoned house where an underground space had been dug out.”

“I carefully entered it.”

“I saw Luo Hongsheng condensing this earth-yellow bead inside.”

“This item is formed by absorbing the essence of the earth, and it is the cause of the drought here.”

“When I was young, I had an adventure and obtained a Shadowless Foundation Establishment Talisman. Using it, I could move unseen. Using that talisman, I took the bead and concealed its aura with a special method.”

“As for whether what I’m saying is true or false, you will know when you confront Luo Hongsheng.”

Hearing Luo Tian’s confident and solid words, Su Yang understood that this matter was most likely done by Luo Hongsheng.

“Alright, please accompany me, Young Master Lu..”
