“What does he want?”
“That man has targeted you. What do you think he wants? Your attire doesn’t look like that of a wealthy person, and there are aphrodisiacs on his body. He’s a womanizer.”
Qiao Mai instantly emerged from the space, scanning with her spiritual power. She hadn’t used the main entrance, choosing instead to jump out of the window.
In the pitch-black night, with snow falling silently, there wasn’t a soul on the streets of County She.
Qiao Mai teleported in front of the two men. The moment the man saw her, he knew they were in trouble. The man greeted her with clasped hands.
“The one who wanted to make a move on you is him. It has nothing to do with me. Please spare me, lady.”
With that, he tossed the person on his shoulder to the ground. Qiao Mai smirked, swiftly appearing in front of the man. Before he could react, she snapped his neck.
She glanced down at the man and conjured a wind blade, cutting his major artery on the neck.
Then, in a blink, she teleported away.
The next day, as snow continued to fall, someone stumbled upon two stiff corpses on the street.
County She erupted in chaos. Such incidents hadn’t happened for many years. The county governor and officials rushed to the scene.
Examining the bodies, the governor concluded it was a grudge between martial artists.
The identities of the two men were under investigation.
Qiao Mai emerged from her guest room very late. When settling the bill with the innkeeper, he stared at her in shock.
“Madam, you- last night?” “What happened last night?”
“Nothing. Nothing at all.”
Qiao Mai rolled her eyes. From the stable, she led out Dong Zhao, mounted it, and rode away.
The reason she stayed the night was to inspect the pine forest today.
Incidentally, she wanted to water each pine tree with the spiritual river water.
As she stepped outside, she overheard people on the main street discussing the corpses.
She sneered and left, disappearing into the snowy mist.
In the afternoon, the governor found out about the inn. The innkeeper concealed the fact that the two men asked about Qiao Mai. He said they left the inn in the middle of the night, and their whereabouts were unknown.
The investigation halted there, but before nightfall, the governor identified the two men.
When he learned that the one who had his throat slit was the son of the Martial Arts Alliance’s leader and the other was the deputy leader’s son, the governor’s face turned gray.
What should he do? With these two individuals dead on his turf, even if it’s considered a vendetta, he bears responsibility as the governor in the eyes of others. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗯𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺
Although it might be fine on the surface, the blame and hatred would be placed on him.
Even if he managed to keep his position, he was uncertain about the safety of his life.
Soon, the deceased’s relatives arrived. In the county office, the leader and deputy leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, along with their wives and children, surrounded the two bodies, weeping bitterly. free(w)ebnov(e)l
After their grief, they questioned the governor about the incident.
“When were my son’s remains found?”
“Early in the morning, someone stumbled and fell, discovering the bodies. The coroner inspected it. It was a midnight death with a fatal blow.” “Did you investigate who my son interacted with these past few days?”
“I’m not sure about others, but someone saw your son at the lamb soup restaurant, pestering a young woman. The woman left, and your son followed her.”
“It wasn’t late at that time. Did anyone see them?”
“The woman ran away, but your son stood there for a while. The other deceased came over to him, and they lit a charcoal brazier together. They left two hours later.”
The leaders exchanged glances and simultaneously asked, “Were they acupunctured?”
“It seems so. What happened next?”
“They checked into the Juhu Inn that night. Was the woman also at that inn?”
“Most likely. However, the two left the inn that night. One carried the other while continuously slapping the other man’s face.”
The leader glared at the governor. It seemed he was annoyed with his phrasing.
“I want the identity of that woman now.”
The county governor immediately sent officials to the inn, and under constant questioning from the officials, the innkeeper finally couldn’t hold back and showed them the registered identity information.
When the officials held the identity information and solemnly handed it to the county governor, he was also dumbfounded.
“This- there must be some misunderstanding.”
After snatching the paper and reading it, the alliance leader fell silent. It turned out Qiao Mai’s information was written on the paper.
Qiao Mai, female, twenty-eight years old, married, from the capital, residing on Huangdao Street in Lucky Garden.
Don’t think people in the martial world are ignorant of court affairs; quite the opposite, they closely monitor them. Similarly, people in the court pay close attention to martial world affairs.
Every high-ranking official has a book with records of martial world matters and important figures.
Similarly, people in the martial world also have information about high-ranking officials and their families.
Yuan Jiaqi holds the position of the Ministry of Personnel, so how could they not have information about him? Qiao Mai’s name is especially well-known.
The county governor in County She is well aware that beyond the town lies thousands of acres of pine forest, all belonging to Qiao Mai. Not to mention the workshops; the annual profits make everyone envious. One cannot forget Madam Qiao.
And the Qiao’s Small Eatery in Tianshui Town – who could forget that without facing senility?
The alliance leader stared at the paper in a daze. “How could it be her?”
The deputy leader leaned over to glance at the information on the paper. “Yeah, how could it be her?”
The governor hastily explained, “Madam Qiao visits her properties outside the city around this time every year. She should be at the Lucky Garden in Tianshui Town now.”
“Is she attractive?”
“Ordinary, but she is fair. Her skin would make any woman envious.”
“No wonder my son took an interest in her.”
It seemed the leader knew his son well. The deputy leader, aware of his son’s character, nodded.
“It seems we won’t be able to avenge this grudge.”
The alliance leader glared at the deputy, then turned to the county governor.
“You can leave.”
“Alright.”
The county governor left. The alliance leader, gritting his teeth, said, “This death must be avenged.”
“Killing the family member of a high-ranking official in the court? If the one on the Dragon Throne finds out, chaos will surely erupt in the martial world. That man is his apple of the eye.”
“Well, it’s just his family member. Let’s not harm the man, just his woman.”
“Leader, our sons have formidable martial arts. They were killed with a move. That woman’s martial skills should not be inferior to ours.
“Tomorrow, we will bury the child properly. Then, we will go to Tianshui Town, find an inn, and wait for the right moment. Bring more people; the two of us will act together. No matter how high her martial skills are, can she surpass the two of us?”
“Better to be cautious.”
“Should we just do nothing for our son’s death?”
The deputy alliance leader sighed. “It’s all because we spoiled our children too much, or they wouldn’t have caused such a disaster.”
“Humph, this is not a reason for the other party to kill our children. They just enjoy sleeping with women; it’s not murder.”
The deputy alliance leader glanced at the alliance leader and sighed lightly.
At this time, Qiao Mai had already returned to Tianshui Town. She had sorted out everything. For the sake of her cultivation, she didn’t hurry back to the capital.
Instead, she entered the space, instructing her family not to disturb her unless it was significant.
While she was immersed in cultivation, a voice echoed in her mind.
“Master, someone is attacking. There are many people, and two are top-tier experts. We are struggling a bit.”
Qiao Mai opened her eyes instantly, left the space, and found the room in darkness. Outside was also pitch-black.
The snow had stopped long ago. Opening the door, the white snow outside illuminated the night.
She twitched her ears and immediately shot towards the southeast.
At this moment, the three sheep were entangled with the black-clothed individuals. Two of them kept launching sneak attacks. Although the sheep were not injured by ordinary weapons, they were still in pain..
