Chapter 100: The Death of Luo Qianyun
Chapter 100: The Death of Luo Qianyun
Su Yun looked at Luo Qianyun's condition, furrowing his brow slightly.
Her clothes were mostly torn, bruises covering her body, with a new coat draped over her, obviously from Xiao Yi Xian.
Even so, some of her snow-white skin was still exposed, her face showing a flicker of fear.
Su Yun took out a bottle of external wound medicine from the system space and handed it to Qing Lin, telling her to take care of it herself, then walked over.
"Sister Luo."
Su Yun called out softly.
Xiao Yi Xian, who was taking care of Luo Qianyun, turned her head, her face showing a hint of concern.
"Sister Luo."
Su Yun approached the two.
"Weren't you and Qing Lin out having fun?
What happened?"
Xiao Yi Xian's delicate jade hand was placed on Luo Qianyun's back, gently comforting her, as she recounted what had happened.
It turned out that Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were happily strolling on the streets of the Jia Ma Empire capital when a ragged woman rushed out of an alley, who turned out to be Luo Qianyun.
Seeing Luo Qianyun in a panic, Xiao Yi Xian stopped her, wanting to ask what was going on.
Just as the three of them met, several tall men rushed out of the alley and wanted to attack them without any explanation.
At this time, a middle-aged man, Kuang Tang, rushed out and shielded the three of them.
After a brief confrontation, a group of people came out from the crowd and escorted them back.
"That's what happened."
Xiao Yi Xian looked at Luo Qianyun with a worried expression in her eyes.
She had lived with Luo Qianyun for most of the past year, and both Sister Luo and Mister Luo had taken good care of her.
Su Yun observed Luo Qianyun's condition, which was not optimistic.
There were obvious abrasions between her legs, and they seemed unnatural.
Combining Xiao Yi Xian's words just now, it was obvious that she had been...
At this moment, Hai Bodong, who was standing aside, spoke up.
"Kuang Tang was arranged to protect the two girls openly, while the group of people that Xiao Yi Xian mentioned just now are the Shadow Guards.
The Shadow Guards are the most powerful force in secret under the Miteer family, with several dou spirit experts among them.
It took the Shadow Guards to make those people back off, indicating that their background is not simple."
Hai Bodong frowned tightly, fortunately, these two girls were not in trouble. Otherwise, the entire Jia Ma Empire would probably be overturned.
Su Yun nodded. This power was already quite good within the Jia Ma Empire.
Apart from Miteer Tengshan and Hai Bodong, they were already the strongest force within the Miteer family.
"Kuang Tang, tell me what happened at the time."
Su Yun said to Kuang Tang.
He was now using Zhang Xiaofan's alias, and Kuang Tang hadn't recognized his identity.
Kuang Tang hurriedly explained the situation he knew.
"If I'm not mistaken, those people should be guards from the Mรน family.
Among those people, there is one dou spirit expert. If it weren't for the Shadow Guards, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to bring the two ladies back safely alone."
The Mรน family?
Su Yun glanced at Luo Qianyun.
If he remembered correctly, when he went to the Alchemist Guild at that time, the people there said that Luo Qianyun had gone to visit a friend with Luo Qianchen?
How did she get involved with the Mรน family?
However, she probably couldn't explain the situation now and needed to rest.
A woman encountering such a situation was probably under a lot of mental stress, and she probably wouldn't recover in a few days.
"Hai Bodong, have a few female guards take her to freshen up and rest, and take good care of her injuries."
Hai Bodong nodded. Just as he was about to leave, Luo Qianyun spoke up.
"Wait, wait..."
Luo Qianyun's disheveled face was filled with a hint of panic as she tightly grasped Xiao Yi Xian's hand.
Xiao Yi Xian's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, comforting Luo Qianyun.
"Sister Luo, take it slow and tell us."
The confusion in Luo Qianyun's eyes gradually returned, replaced by fear and urgency.
"Xian'er, save Teacher!
I beg you, save Teacher!"
Tears streamed down Luo Qianchen's delicate face.
"Sister Luo, take your time," Su Yun said with a slight frown. It seemed Luo Qianchen was in trouble.
"Teacher is still at the Mu Family. Xiao Yi Xian, please, save my teacher!"
"Grandpa Luo!"
Xiao Yi Xian's face showed a hint of panic as she turned to Su Yun, conveying her meaning without words.
Su Yun nodded, then looked at Hai Bodong.
"Hai Bodong, accompany me to the Mu Family."
"Alright."
The two stepped outside, their Dou Qi spreading their wings as Hai Bodong led the way to the Mu Family.
Meanwhile, at the Mu Family in the Jia Ma Empire.
Mu Chen, the head of the Mu Family, frowned as he looked at the four individuals before him, feeling a surge of anger.
"A Dou Qi user, three Dou Grandmasters, yet you let a girl of lower cultivation escape! What use are you!"
The four trembled in fear.
At this moment, the Dou Qi user spoke up.
"Master Mu, that girl was initially unable to escape. It was only because that old man swallowed some kind of pill, forcibly advancing his strength to the Dou Qi level, that he held us back for a moment. After we dealt with him, we were about to catch up to the girl. However, when we reached the main street, it seemed she had some connection with the Miteer Family and was intercepted by them, preventing us from bringing her back."
The Dou Qi user recounted the events after Luo Qianchen encountered Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin in detail.
Mu Chen frowned.
Two young girls, accompanied by a group of guards, including several Dou Qi experts. It seemed they held high status in the Miteer Family, but what exactly was their background and why had he never heard of them before?
"How about that old man?"
Mu Chen inquired further.
"The backlash from the pill he swallowed was severe. He died as soon as its effects wore off."
Mu Chen's eyes flashed with impatience.
"Good riddance. That old fool, who knows why he dared to come back after I let him off decades ago."
At this moment, a powerful aura emanated from nearby.
Mu Chen's expression changed. This aura belonged to a Dou Emperor!
A sense of unease washed over Mu Chen. Without hesitation, he flew out into the courtyard.
With their Dou Qi turned into wings, Su Yun and Hai Bodong arrived.
Mu Chen flew up to them.
Upon seeing the newcomers, Mu Chen's unease grew stronger.
Hai Bodong and the sixth-grade alchemist!
Over the past few days, Su Yun's portrait had been circulated among the major powers in the Jia Ma Empire.
As one of the three major families of the Jia Ma Empire, the Mu Family naturally knew what Su Yun looked like.
Both of these individuals had a significant connection with the Miteer Family.
The fact that they arrived right after the incident with that girl was self-explanatory.
Despite knowing their intentions, Mu Chen forced a smile.
"Master Zhang, Ice Emperor," Mu Chen greeted them.
Hai Bodong remained silent, clearly deferring to Su Yun.
"Head Mu, do you happen to know someone named Luo Qianchen?" Su Yun asked directly.
