The Qiangu Changkong carried people down the mountain.

At the same time, Iron Bull Soul Douluo led his team to eliminate the Patrol Team located on the mountainside, which then came to their aid.

Iron Bull Soul Douluo said, "Jin Luo, you and Young Master Qian Gu take the men back to the city, and leave the rest to us."

After rescuing the people, the next step was to purge the disciples of the New Mountain Sect.

As for these student teams, they were also taken away.

Faced with the siege, the disciples of the New Mountain Sect will inevitably put up a stubborn resistance.

The trainees lack combat experience, and in such situations, they often suffer heavy losses.

However, they are not without purpose; they can escort the miners to safety on their way back to the city.

Wu Qi, who was conducting aerial reconnaissance, no longer wanted to fight and followed Qiangu Changkong and the others to retreat.

After all, he was only there to investigate the Wu Family's involvement, not to act as a thug.

Having obtained the final piece of the puzzle from Wu Qinan, his task was complete.

If the miners here weren't in dire need of rescue, he would have led his team to the Poisonous Land long ago.

Once in the city, the miners were properly resettled, and Wu Qi was finally able to rest a bit.

However, he did not rest, but stood on the city wall with Qiangu Changkong and others, observing the situation in the distance.

Chen Ping said, "Wu Ge, there's not much commotion outside the city. Has the New Mountain Sect deployed a large number of people near the Mine Mountain?"

Previously, he had not gone out with Wu Qi and the others, but stayed in the city to coordinate with the local Spirit Hall and the City Lord Mansion to receive the miners.

However, judging from the sounds of battle coming from outside the city, it wasn't as intense as expected.

Wu Qi said, "Most people have probably already left; those left behind are just the last ones clearing the area."

"However, for us, the matter is over, and we can now go on our training journey. The remaining matters of the New Mountain Sect can be handled by our two grandfathers."

"Let's go, there are some trivial matters that need to be taken care of."

The three left the city wall and found He Niannian and her father in the crowd.

After learning what had happened from He Niannian, He Guangyi immediately knelt down upon seeing the three of them, his eyes filled with gratitude.

"Thank you so much for saving my daughter and everyone in the Mine Mountain."

The Spirit Hall and the City Lord Mansion jointly issued a statement informing the miners that the New Mountain Sect had planted explosives in the Mine Mountain. Although the miners still had some doubts, they had no choice but to believe the statement issued by these two authoritative forces.

Wu Qi helped He Guangyi up and waved his hand, saying, "I'm not doing this entirely for you; I also have my own interests to consider."

"You can understand it as rescuing all of you miners being a natural next step."

"However, you will need to testify in court about the exploitation you have suffered by the New Mountain Sect over the years, and the fact that the Mine Mountain were transferred to the New Mountain Sect's control a long time ago."

He Guangyi responded repeatedly.

Previously, He Niannian had already informed him of the facts.

He Guangyi finally understood that Mr. Charles had not abandoned them, but had been harmed by the people of the New Mountain Sect.

In addition to being exploited by the New Mountain Sect for many years, they will eventually be put to death.

His resentment drove him to want nothing more than to bring the New Mountain Sect to its doom.

Therefore, when the hearing is held later, He Guangyi and others will naturally know what to say.

"As for He Niannian, whether she goes to study at the Spirit Hall Academy is entirely up to your own wishes."

As he spoke, Wu Qi took out a personal token from his Soul Tool.

The Dean of the Spirit Hall Academy is the son of Golden Crocodile Douluo, and his family still owes Wu Qi a favor.

Moreover, He Niannian's Talent is not bad, so there is no reason for the Spirit Hall Academy to turn her away.

"Can I really do it?" He Niannian asked excitedly.

Going to study at the Spirit Hall Academy has always been her dream.

It's important to know that Advanced Spirit Master Academy on the mainland either restrict the background of Soul Master or limit their Martial Soul attributes.

Only the Spirit Hall Academy doesn't consider background or Martial Soul, focusing solely on the student's Talent.

Unfortunately, He Niannian was unable to leave because of the New Mountain Sect.

Wu Qi smiled calmly, "That's up to you. If you're willing, contact the local Spirit Hall later, and they'll arrange for someone to escort you to the Spirit Hall Academy."

With that, he turned and left. "I have other things to do, so I won't stay. If you'd like, we can meet again at the Spirit Hall Academy in the future."

The rest can be handled by Qian Jun, Subduing Demon Douluo, and other powerful figures from the Spirit Hall.

Wu Qi led the team towards Lipton Forest to complete his training.

The next morning, the local City Lord Mansion held a hearing.

No one from the New Mountain Sect attended the hearing; of course, even if they had been invited, they might not have come.

The hearing was straightforward, with the miners accusing the New Mountain Sect of exploitation and their experiences in recent years.

Furthermore, the Spirit Hall also presented evidence collected from the Mine Mountain.

The New Mountain Sect group seemed to have no intention of causing any accidents, having buried countless explosives in the Mine Mountain. Once detonated, the entire Mine Mountain would inevitably collapse, and it might even trigger a large-scale earthquake.

Such heinous acts are simply too numerous to recount.

This hearing was essentially giving the Spirit Hall a Legal Grounds basis to take action against the New Mountain Sect.

This incident became known to everyone across the mainland.

Such heinous acts deserve to be punished by everyone.

The Spirit Hall then naturally assumed the role of acting on behalf of Heaven.

Meanwhile, inside the Wu Family...

Since returning to his family, Wu Qinan has been secretly searching for the identity of the mole.

He already had some guesses.

Early this morning, the butler rushed in with the news. "Clan Head, there's fantastic news!"

The butler's topic of conversation was, of course, about the Mine Mountain.

After investigation by the Spirit Hall and the local City Lord Mansion, it has been confirmed that the New Mountain Sect was involved, and no evidence has been found that the Wu Family was involved.

In this way, the Wu Family was removed from the list.

Wu Qinan knew that this was the result of Wu Qi's help.

However, this does not mean that the Wu Family can pretend nothing happened.

Even if Xue Qinghe didn't pursue the matter afterward, Wu Qinan knew what to do.

But before that, he needs to find the mole.

"Sir, you seem quite unhappy. What's wrong? Is something wrong with your master, and you're starting to get anxious?"

The steward was initially startled, but quickly regained his composure and said, "Clan Head, what are you saying? Nothing has happened to our Wu Family. On the contrary, we have benefited from this misfortune. Why should I be anxious?"

Wu Qinan sneered, "Do you really need me to produce evidence before you'll admit it?"

"They conspired with the New Mountain Sect to kill Charles and a group of the Wu Family members, and then secretly colluded with them to deceive me!"

"If I didn't have evidence, why would I say it so easily?"

"You still won't admit it!"

When reporting the news, the butler's expression was clearly abnormal, a sign that he was guilty.

Wu Qinan had no reason not to increase his suspicions about him.
