At this moment, a group of white-clad figures slowly arrived at the site of the great battle between Li Changfeng and Elder Wang. After searching the area, they found only Elder Wang's broken sword and nothing else.
The white-robed leader slowly said, "It seems Elder Wang has perished! If I'm not mistaken, he died at the hands of Li Changfeng!"
Upon hearing this, a figure in white cupped his hands in greeting. "Commander Bai! Then we'll go back and issue a warrant for Li Changfeng's arrest! That brat dared to kill someone from our Wind and Rain Pavilion; he's utterly courting death!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Bai waved his hand and said, "I'll investigate this matter first! Elder Wang and Li Changfeng have no grudges against each other, so why would Elder Wang suddenly kill someone? Moreover, I've met Li Changfeng before, and he doesn't seem to be a murderer. There must be something hidden here!"
The figure in white frowned upon hearing this. "Li Changfeng isn't a murderer? Then how come so many people outside the city have died at his hands!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Bai gave him a deep look. "Little Wang! If you were surrounded and attacked by so many people, you'd probably be even more ruthless than him!"
Upon hearing this, Little Wang's expression darkened slightly, a fleeting look of resentment crossing his eyes. He lowered his head and said, "Commander Bai! You're right!"
Commander Bai nodded upon hearing this and said calmly, "I know your uncle died at Li Changfeng's hands, and you resent him, but you must not act rashly before the matter is thoroughly investigated! Do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Little Wang lowered his head even further and bowed, saying, "Your subordinate understands!"
Commander Bai nodded upon hearing this, pondered for a moment, and then his gaze fell on another figure in white. "Chu Xiong! You are Elder Wang's subordinate. Have you discovered any grudge between Elder Wang and Li Changfeng?"
Chu Xiong pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Commander Bai! I know that Elder Wang and Li Changfeng met once, when he Fung Yu-sau to buy the information on the three bounties. Later, he asked me to sell this information to the three family heads. I wonder if that's how the enmity was formed?"
Commander Bai nodded upon hearing this. "I see! It seems they have a grudge! But why would they make a move here?"
Suddenly, Chu Xiong seemed to remember something and cupped his hands, saying, "Reporting to Commander Bai! I was also present when Li Changfeng was fighting in the suburbs. I remember that Li Changfeng seemed to be in bad shape and fled the battlefield. Then I inexplicably received Elder Wang's order to leave this place!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Bai narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You received orders from Elder Wang? It seems the truth has come out. This Old Wang actually broke the rules and became greedy, chasing after Li Changfeng, only to be killed by Li Changfeng instead. He has no one to blame but himself!"
Upon hearing this, Little Wang looked incredulous and quickly said, "Impossible! Uncle Wang isn't that kind of person! It must have been Li Changfeng who killed Uncle Wang out of hatred!"
Commander Bai's eyes turned cold upon hearing this. "You... are you questioning my judgment? Then tell me, Li Changfeng has clearly already escaped, so why is he fighting Elder Wang here? And given his current state, do you think he would directly seek revenge on Elder Wang? Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
Little Wang, still unwilling to accept it, said, "Perhaps... perhaps he went mad and wanted to take revenge by killing Uncle Wang!"
Commander Bai scoffed, "Stop fooling yourself! I won't explain anything to you anymore. I don't need you to teach me how to do things!"
After saying that, Commander Bai transformed into a tattered scroll and left without a trace.
Chu Xiong glanced at Little Wang with a mocking expression, "I really don't know how you became the captain of the spy team at the Wind and Rain Pavilion! You don't even have this much judgment! You're a piece of trash!"
Upon hearing this, Little Wang flew into a rage, "What did you say! How dare you be so disrespectful! Are you looking for death?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiong laughed loudly, "Looking for death? With your pathetic skills? Do you think you're a match for him? If Elder Wang were watching you, do you think you'd be capable of sitting in the position of spy captain? What a joke!"
After saying that, Chu Xiong sneered and suddenly slapped Little Wang hard with his palm. Little Wang saw this and immediately tried to fight back, but unfortunately, his strength was far from being a match for Chu Xiong. He was slapped away and flew out, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood. He lay on the ground like a defeated dog.
"Is that all the strength you have? You dare to provoke me? You're utterly foolish!" Chu Xiong sneered, then vanished in a blur.
The remaining spies in white glanced at Little Wang with mocking smiles before leaving, leaving Little Wang lying on the ground, his face contorted with humiliation. He clutched a handful of dirt, his expression twisted with rage, and cried out, "Li Changfeng!! It's all your fault! You're the one who made me this way! I'll make sure you suffer!!"
At this time, Li Changfeng had already traveled dozens of miles away from the imperial city. He lit a fire in a mountain cave, took a healing pill, and then sat cross-legged on the ground to practice his internal energy to heal his injuries. Under the influence of the healing pill and his internal energy practice, Li Changfeng's injuries were completely healed in less than an hour!
Li Changfeng slowly opened his eyes, picked up a tiger leg from the fire, and ate it in large mouthfuls. "My injuries are healed now! Let's set off tomorrow morning!"
The next morning.
After tidying his clothes, Li Changfeng headed towards Cloud City. Suddenly, a series of system voices rang in his head.
