The Jiang Lan Who Had Once Again Gone into Hiding

At this moment, Gongsun Haoyue couldn't understand it either. She had been quite tolerant of the Grandmaster and elders in the Sects.

Some of these elders embezzled public funds, while others installed their cronies and interfered recklessly in local governance.

However, as long as they didn't go too far, she tolerated it.

As a result, her tolerance was rewarded in this way.

They actually colluded with outsiders and betrayed the Sects; this can no longer be tolerated.

Gongsun Haoyue looked at the remaining four people: Yun Ye, Yun Tian, Yun He, and Yun Fei.

He said coldly, "I'm giving you one more chance now. Confess properly. If the truth comes out later, your fate will be even worse than theirs."

After saying that, before they could react, he flashed and sealed all the meridians and dantian of these people.

Then he turned to Yun Wu and said calmly, "Separate them into different lockups. You can torture Yun He and Yun Xian."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ye, Yun Tian, Yun He, and Yun Fei turned pale with fright and begged for mercy repeatedly.

Yun Wu, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned by the series of changes on the field before he could even react.

Upon hearing the sect leader's order, he immediately came to his senses and hastily waved his hand, leading his men to take them all away.

When Flowing Cloud Matriarch saw that Gongsun Haoyue had finished dealing with the matter, he stood up and said, "Since you have finished, I will go back first."

Gongsun Haoyue nodded without saying anything, watching Flowing Cloud Matriarch walk out of the Council Great Hall.

In fact, she understood why Flowing Cloud Matriarch was so nervous about this matter; he was afraid that her marriage to Jiang Liu might encounter some unexpected changes.

If things go wrong with this marriage, it won't be so easy to bring up the engagement again later.

After all, the Star Moon Sect's majority of centrists did not entirely agree with the joint proposal between the two sects.

This time, it was only because Gongsun Haoyue suddenly brought up this idea that we were caught off guard.

When they finally realized what was happening, they discovered that their sect leader had already agreed to the marriage.

That's why they reluctantly accepted it; after all, they couldn't go back on their word!

But if we had to do it again, it probably wouldn't be so easy.

The six people who were just taken away were merely the elders who opposed the movement the most.

However, while they may object, betraying the Sects's interests is absolutely unacceptable.

That's why, in her fury, she crippled Yun He without hesitation.

Because she learned from the confession that Yun He had been in contact with the Great Qian Imperial Family for a long time.

However, she never thought of reporting this matter to higher authorities.

This shows that Yun He no longer cares about the interests of the Sects.

Including Yun Xian and the others, judging from their reactions, Gongsun Haoyue believed they were also aware of the situation, yet none of them reported it.

Therefore, Gongsun Haoyue was disappointed in them all.

This led Gongsun Haoyue to finally decide to begin reorganizing the entire Sects.

The previous corruption will also be formally and rigorously investigated.

However, all of these things will have to wait until after the wedding. Right now, the most important thing is to ensure that the wedding takes place as scheduled.

Jiang Liu hurried along the way and finally arrived at Yanhsia City below Jing County, at sunset on the second day.

When Jiang Liu stepped into this city, he felt that it truly lived up to its name, Yanxia.

He looked back at the horizon, where the setting sun cast a crimson glow, painting the entire city sky a fiery red.

Jiang Liu thought that it was the dead of winter, and the sun was shining so brightly in this city. He could only imagine how hot it would be when the weather got hot.

It's no wonder that there are so few ordinary people living here; Jiang Liu could see that almost everyone here was a different kind of martial artist.

Jiang Liu concealed his aura, donned his cloak, and slowly walked into the city along with the flow of people.

The Star Moon Sect disciples guarding the city only glanced at Jiang Liu with slight curiosity before letting him pass.

After all, there are all kinds of people among the martial artists who travel in the Jianghu. What's so strange about wearing a cloak when you come to such a hot place?

Even in the dead of winter, in places where it's freezing cold, there are still many people wearing only a single layer of clothing.

After entering Yanhsia City, Jiang Liu went straight to an inn by the roadside, booked a room, and prepared to rest and freshen up before making his move after dark.

There are so many warriors in this city. If the enemy realizes that they have come to capture them, they will simply hide in the shadows.

Finding the other person in this vast sea of people is like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Therefore, Jiang Liu was particularly careful in order to act cautiously.

The only way to capture Jiang Lan and her group is to trap them inside their house.

Jiang Liu didn't want them to escape again. After all, he would be going to sea again soon, and he was not at ease leaving these troublemakers behind.

As night fell, Jiang Liu, dressed in black, slipped out of the inn and flew towards the place where the eunuch had confessed.

Upon arriving here, Jiang Liu immediately released his Divine Sense to envelop the entire house.

However, Jiang Liu discovered that although there were quite a few people here, there wasn't even a Grandmaster, and most of them were just ordinary martial artists who hadn't even Entry Grade.

Jiang Liu felt strange. According to the eunuch's confession, the people here should be quite strong. How come there isn't even a Grandmaster?

Moreover, the strongest martial artist here is only a Minor Grandmaster, and there are only one Minor Grandmaster.

Jiang Liu flashed into the courtyard, stretched out his hand, grabbed the Minor Grandmaster, and then used his mental power to invade his Divine Sense sea.

A loud "Bang!" rang out in the man's Divine Sense.

Jiang Liu frowned immediately. It seemed that Wei Jin had already made preparations. The people he left here would automatically explode if anyone invaded his Divine Sense sea.

Looking at the lifeless eunuch in his hand, Jiang Liu casually tossed him aside. It seemed that Wei Jin was indeed very shrewd.

Perhaps this place is just a smokescreen, and not their real hiding place at all.

Since Wei Jin was able to plant the mark of self-destruction in this person's Divine Sense sea, the others left here should have done the same.

This reveals how cautious Wei Jin was about the place where he and Jiang Lan were hiding.

Jiang Liu was still not giving up. He continued to stretch out his hand, sending out his energy-generated hand that randomly grabbed a few people.

As it turned out, it was pointless for these people to ask, because they had no idea who Jiang Lan and Wei Jin were, which left Jiang Liu speechless.

Immediately, Jiang Liu unleashed his Divine Sense to its maximum, spreading it outwards.

In the end, no clues were found, because the surrounding residents were just ordinary people.

In the end, Jiang Liu had no choice but to leave, leaving behind dozens of corpses.

It wasn't until the next morning, when a farmer came to deliver something, that he discovered someone had died there, and then reported it to the authorities.

After inspecting the area, the leaders from the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect concluded their investigation shortly afterward.

After all, feuds and killings in the Jianghu happen all the time. Once someone dies, they're gone. Who cares about you?

Jiang Liu followed the farmer who discovered the dead body all the way to the outskirts of the city and to his home, but he found nothing wrong with the man.

Jiang Liu even searched the area around his residence but found nothing unusual.

Only now did Jiang Liu finally give up hope. It seemed that Jiang Lan and Wei Jin were indeed cautious enough not to send anyone to check.

In the end, Jiang Liu had no choice but to leave Yanhsia City and head towards Qian Prefecture.
