In Wushi, inside the Bureau of Strange Countermeasures, Deng Guannan took a sip of tea and couldn't help but rub his temples.
Who exactly was that cunning thief who attacked the Wu family outside the Wu market?
What level of attainment is it?
They acted so swiftly.
Deng Guannan also heard his subordinates' report that Wu Shan had turned into a dried corpse the moment he left a slave demon for just one second, and even his demonic aura had disappeared.
This is a third-rank slave cultivator, even stronger than him!!
Deng Guannan inwardly applauded this cunning traitor.
He knew that the Wu family, those scum, were still using ancient rituals to achieve their bizarre advancements.
It can be said that these ancient and bizarre promotion rituals are all remnants of a chaotic era, each one carrying the stench of blood.
A large number of lives are required to complete the ritual.
The Zhong family is the same. For example, Zhong Song's arrival this time was to complete a ritual for his strange promotion.
Chung Chung summoned many broadcasters to spread his bizarre stories.
At the same time, a ghost village was set up, with many fake ghosts and monsters, and then his real ghost was added in the middle.
When that happens, the streamers will be frightened and develop a sense of fear, and be consumed by his eeriness.
However, after these streamers leave the haunted village, they will definitely die one by one.
Zhong Song, a disciple of the Zhong family, died in the Wu family; one could only say that he died a very good death.
"What exactly is the higher-ups thinking?"
Deng Guannan was somewhat puzzled, even though he knew that these families used promotion ceremonies to achieve their strange advancements.
Why aren't the people above doing anything about it?
Hu Hao walked in from outside and saw the director drinking tea. He couldn't help but ask, "Director, another person from the Wu family has died, and it was a third-rank mysterious being who died."
"We don't know if it was the Slaves or some other supernatural entity that made this move. Should we intervene?"
Deng Guannan glanced at Hu Hao and casually said, "Make a move? How? Are you going to deal with that third-rank slave-devourer?"
Hu Hao chuckled awkwardly; naturally, he had no intention of dealing with that third-rank slave.
"But Director, we can ask our superiors for help."
"Once that treacherous servant plots against our martial arts market, it will be too late."
Hu Hao wanted to persuade the bureau chief that he couldn't just sit idly by and watch the danger go unchecked.
Deng Guannan shook his head. He would never make a move. He was too weak himself. How could he possibly deal with a third-rank slave?
Hu Hao left helplessly, and Deng Guannan glanced at him with a cold look in his eyes.
Wu family.
When Wu Feng heard that his Uncle Shan had died in the suburbs outside Wu City, his first reaction was disbelief.
How is that possible?
His Uncle Shan is a third-rank slave, who could possibly harm him?
He didn't believe the news at all, but then he saw one of his men reporting it with a panicked expression, as if he had seen something terrifying.
He couldn't help but feel suspicious, even anxious.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Wu Feng muttered to himself.
The Wu family disciples who returned from the outskirts of the Wu family were filled with fear, for they had seen Wu Shan's corpse with their own eyes.
Wu Shan, the burly pillar of the Wu family, was reduced to a dried-up corpse, his death gruesome and witnessed by everyone.
Many martial arts disciples broke down in tears.
They couldn't accept that Wu Shan, the pillar of their Wu family, was gone just like that, and even the strange things had disappeared.
He was taken away by that cunning swindler.
Wu Feng got up and prepared to go to the outskirts of Wu City to see if what these people were saying was true.
Wu Tian arrived and stopped him.
"You're not allowed to go. Haven't you seen clearly yet?"
There must be a powerful enslaved being targeting us. As soon as we step into the martial arts market, we will be ambushed by that enslaved being, and you will be no exception.
Wu Tian's face was extremely cold. He could no longer suppress his anger. He couldn't understand who dared to be so arrogant towards his Wu family, preventing them from even leaving Wu City. The fact that his Wu family couldn't leave Wu City had become a laughing stock in the Wu City's slave community!
Wu Feng was taken aback for a moment, then understood, and his expression turned ugly.
Who could be so ruthless?
They killed several of their Wu family's slaves and traitors, and now they won't even let the Wu family leave Wu City.
Wu Feng thought for a moment and then slowly said, "Father, is it possible that this matter was not caused by us, but by the Zhong family?"
"Don't forget that this whole thing started when Zhong Song from the Zhong family came to our Wu City for a promotion ceremony, and he was tragically murdered."
He is likely a cunning and righteous traitor who resents our becoming accomplices of the Zhong family.
The more Wu Feng talked, the more he felt that his speculation might be true.
Wu Tian thought for a moment and nodded.
"That's possible."
"Father, so let's not concern ourselves with this matter anymore. Just have the yamen bring the two girls from that lake city over, and then inform the Zhong family about it. Let the Zhong family handle everything."
So many of us have died, even Uncle Shan is gone. That's enough to give the Zhong family an explanation.
As Wu Feng thought about the people who had died in his Wu family in the past few days, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes. Too many people had died in the past few days.
Wu Tian agreed with Wu Feng's suggestion and immediately notified the Zhong family of Zhong Song's death.
Zhongfu City, the Zhong family.
The Zhong family's residence was incredibly luxurious, a manor villa.
The first person to learn of Zhong Song's death was his mother, Liu Lan. She heard the news from Wu Tian and her body trembled uncontrollably.
She didn't believe what Wu Tian said. How could her son, a slave-like demon, die in a small place like Wu City?
She didn't believe it at all.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
How could my son be dead?
Liu Lan spoke in a trembling voice, already having a premonition that her son Zhong Song might really be gone.
This time, she wanted her son to go to Wu City, bringing along an elderly man from the Zhong family, a powerful and cunning individual, to protect her son.
However, his son refused, and now something bad may have really happened.
Thinking of this, Liu Lan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Madam, I am very sorry, our Wu family failed to protect Young Master Zhong."
Our Wu family is doing its best to capture the murderer. Several slaves have already died, including two fourth-rank slaves and one third-rank slave from our Wu family, Wu Shan.
Our Wu family is now trapped in Wu City and unable to leave. We can only inform you of this.
Wu Tian spoke in a calm and respectful voice.
"You're trying to say that your Wu family has done its best, right?"
"Heh heh, it seems my son is truly gone, but your Wu family hasn't caught the murderer yet. Just you wait!"
Liu Lan hung up the phone with trembling hands.
She picked up her phone again and dialed another number, calling her husband, Zhong Ming, the head of the third wife's family in the Zhong family.
Upon receiving the news, Zhong Ming quickly appeared at the villa in the villa complex.
"Go to the Wu family! I want to see who dares to kill my son and then block the Wu market, preventing the Zhong family from finding the murderer!!"
Zhong Ming's tone was filled with icy killing intent. He wanted to see who dared to touch his son and be so arrogant!
That's practically suicide!
Not long after, Zhong Ming led a group of people to Wu City.
Their commotion also alerted the Strange Countermeasures Bureau within Zhongfu City.
