only explain to the school authorities that he had never done such a thing.The school also arranged for someone to conduct an investigation, and Ripples was among those being questioned."On the day of...Taking a glance at Chang Wei who fled in a panic, Lian Yi lowered her eyes and continued sipping her tea. Luo Ying and Luo Huai were still somewhat baffled, what was this group of people here for

At this time, Wen Lu held her sword and leaped directly from the second floor. After landing, she scanned her surroundings before asking Luo Ying:

What about the people from Changwei鏢局

"The young lady waved her sleeves, and swept them all away! Look! They haven't gone far!"

Luohuai pointed to the group of people who had disappeared outside the door and said.

Wen Lu frowned, just about to chase after Chang Wei and have a final showdown with the old man, when Lian Yi stopped her.

"I've already sent him away. If you get into a conflict with him in Huafeng City, it won't be good for us. You have Minmin too, so there's no need to cause trouble for yourself over someone like this. He won't last long anyway."

Wenlu, hearing Lianyi's words, finally stopped her steps. A tinge of shame flashed across her face as she said:

"I'm sorry to bother you."

"Nothing to worry about, get yourselves ready, we're leaving tomorrow. We've been here long enough already."

"Yes!"

Wuyu Daochang, who was resting at the county office, knew that Lu Yao Xianzi wasn't planning to get involved in the Bai Mang affair. He found this puzzling, since when evil qi appeared in Bailing Town, she was always the first to act. There was no reason for her to give up the merit of subduing demons this time.

"Master, what do we do That magistrate pretends to be one way on the surface but acts another behind closed doors. He won't listen to your advice. If something happens..."

“Don't panic. Keep an eye on the county magistrate's residence. If they make a move, we'll step in to stop them. These officials are best at scheming and maneuvering. If he thinks this is a good opportunity, he won't give it up. And if we can't catch him in the act, he definitely won't admit anything.”

"Yes! Master, your disciple understands! It's just that Master, your injury hasn't healed yet. If you forcefully make a move, it would worsen the damage."

Feng Yu frowned and said.

"It's fine, just bring some realgar powder. If things get tough, make sure you have enough time to escape."

"Disciple obeys, and will prepare at once."

At noon, Feng Yu returned to the temporary residence in the county government's backyard carrying a bag about his size.

"Master, the message from Lady Luyao was accurate. Those people have already left. Although the county magistrate is behind this and assembled the manpower, he didn't appear himself. There are quite a few martial artists involved."

Feng Yu Bian said as he put down his burden, and continued:

"Master, I have bought all the realgar powder available in town, and I have also hired a carriage. This way, Master can rest before reaching the waterfall bamboo grove."

"Okay, let's get going now."

Wuyou got up and off the bed, put on his Fengyu, got into that carriage, and fell behind that group of martial artists, heading towards the waterfall bamboo forest.

Chang Wei failed to find Wen Lu and her daughter, and already a fire was burning in his belly. Acting alongside the martial artists brought by the magistrate also made him unhappy; he wore a sullen expression throughout.

The common people in the martial world thought that bodyguards were at the bottom of the social ladder, a disgrace to those who practiced martial arts. As for Chang Wei, he believed that these Jianghu folks who spent their days killing each other didn't hold any value either.

In the evening, a group of people arrived at their destination. Chang Wei immediately called his men to check the boxes. This was the batch of goods that One-Eyed had lost.

Some people couldn't stand Chang Wei's domineering style and immediately said with displeasure:

"Chang Biaotou, what do you mean Everything here is ours to share. How can you take it all for yourself!"

"Humph! What do you mean by hogging it all This belongs to our Changwei鏢局. It's even sealed with our bureau's seal. Why should we split it with you"

"If we weren't here, do you think you'd dare come here to find these things You wouldn't have gotten anything without our help!"

A man wielding double hammers shouted.

"Humph! Our鏢局 is cooperating with the county magistrate to recover lost items. You just joined in on your own, how can you be so shameless as to demand an equal share of our鏢局's belongings!"

"Once the dart is out of your hand, it's no longer yours!"

For a while, both sides argued vehemently, and ended up fighting in the open space beside the waterfall. Some of them, with bad tempers, even started throwing punches. The sound of "thwack" and "bang" filled the air, interspersed with shouts and curses.

Neither party involved realized it at the time, but in the waterfall and bamboo grove, those startled white snakes had silently emerged. Most of them slithered towards where Chang Wei was standing.

"Snake! White snake!"

"Ah! Where did so many snakes come from"

"Could there really be a white python"

"Where is it"

The two groups, who were originally huddled together, quickly separated. Facing the appearance of the white snake, their faces changed drastically. However, they were all martial artists after all, and immediately drew their swords, beginning to slash at the small white snakes that charged forward.

The little white snakes gathered around Chang Wei the most, and they desperately drilled into his body as if seeking shelter. No matter how many small white snakes Chang Wei shattered, it was useless. The guards around him also noticed something and quickly distanced themselves from Chang Wei.

Without their assistance, Chang Wei found himself in a dire situation. He stumbled and fell, but before he could get back up, it was too late. A swarm of white snakes engulfed him instantly, swiftly entering his nose and mouth. Chang Wei's screams were terrifying; everyone who heard them felt a chill run down their spines. They hacked at the small white snakes while hurriedly retreating from the waterfall's edge.

Worry-free's carriage hadn't even reached the edge of the waterfall when the horse suddenly stopped, refusing to move forward another step. It was as if there were a ferocious beast lurking there, and it started backing up.

"Master, I hear the sound of fighting over there, and this horse refuses to move forward."

Fengyu wiped the sweat from his brow, trying hard to control the agitated horse, while addressing Wuyou who was meditating in the carriage.

Wuyou also noticed something was amiss. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and jumped down directly, addressing Fengyu:

"You drive the carriage a little farther, and I'll go and have a look."

"Master, I'm going with you too!"

"Wait for me here."

Wuyou slung a backpack over his shoulder, gave Fengyu a couple of instructions, and rushed toward the scene.

Without Worry's arrival was just in time. With a sprinkle of realgar powder, those little white things immediately wilted, buying some time for those martial artists.

Seeing Wuyou in a Taoist robe and effortlessly suppressing those small snakes, the group of people quickly fled from the snake swarm, looking rather embarrassed as they rushed out. They didn't hesitate for a moment and started running back.

When Youwu finally left, his breathing grew labored. Fengyu's eyes lit up immediately, and he rushed over.

"Master, are you alright Did you see the white python"

"I'm fine, just a few people died. They looked like鏢師, this time all that came out were little snakes, I didn't see the white python."

Worry-free frowned and said.

"That's great! Master, let's head back quickly as well! If it weren't for saving these people, Master wouldn't have come here injured."

Feng Yu went up and supported his own master, immediately pulling him towards the carriage.

“Those martial artists all slipped away, not even waiting for their master!”Longxi.""You're a pretty good accountant.""There's no other way. We're about to go to war. Even if I gain the upper hand this time and defeat Meng Guo, the snow disaster afterwards will be the most di...
