"I heard my brother Lei Qing died. Did you leak his whereabouts?" I asked coldly.
"What? I didn't know anything! Xia Yitian, you can't wrong me like this, can you? The Arcane Sect's affairs are one thing. I don't get involved in mortal matters. I have my principles, all right?" Nong Guofu said, startled.
"It wasn't you? Fine, then I want the Purple Emperor Sect's recent hideout. I'll pay you as usual. Finding out this kind of information shouldn't be difficult for you, right?" Lei Qing was a famous figure in Dalong County. How could Nong Guofu not know something?
"They're hiding in the Tang family's western estate. I heard about it before, and lots of people know it. I won't charge you for this. I didn't provide the information, either. Whether you wipe out their household or their sect has nothing to do with me!" Nong Guofu immediately pushed all responsibility away.
I had a history of wiping out households and sects. If someone came after me, it was no big deal—I could run if I couldn't beat them. But when someone close to me died, the matter became serious. Nong Guofu dared to make a profit off my black heart, but when it involved his own life, he didn't dare take a single cent.

"Yitian, the Purple Emperor Sect is also a major sect of the Daoist Order. Its strength isn't something any Aristocratic Clan can compare with. You have plenty of corpse soldiers, but against these major Arcane Sect powers with centuries of inheritance, your foundations may still be somewhat lacking. Why don't you put this matter aside for now? Find those few killers, and let the matter end there, all right?" Xia
