The faces of the few refugees who had spoken up earlier to explain everything had turned pale in an instant, and their eyes were filled with shock.
"Oh?" Jun Wu Xie raised up an eyebrow and looked at the City Lord who could no longer hold himself back any longer. She then said calmly: "There is no such thing. If the City Lord does not believe me, you can search every single corner of this place. If you find even a single corpse, I will bear the crime of murder."
"Guards! Search them thoroughly! Search them thoroughly! Do not miss a single spot! " The City Lord glared at Jun Wu Xie with his teeth tightly clenched. With a single command, the soldiers he brought with him immediately surged forward.
The refugees stood in their spots, silent like cicadas in winter. The faces of the few who had blabbered earlier were now deathly pale, their jaws clenched so tightly that their legs were trembling, their hearts filled with endless regret. They had never thought that their naive and naïve minds would bring Jun Wu Xie so much trouble, and had never thought that the "benevolent" City Lord would turn hostile so quickly, going back on his word!
It had only been an instant, and the "benevolent" image of the City Lord in the hearts of the refugees had been completely destroyed. The slander they had thrown at Jun Wu Xie earlier had been quickly and accurately countered by Jun Wu Xie, and he had then pinned the crime of murder onto Jun Wu Xie's head.
Unless one was an idiot, who would not be able to see that the City Lord was purposely making things difficult for Jun Wu Xie?
The eyes of the refugees had fully revealed their hearts. The gazes they looked at the City Lord were no longer filled with respect and gratitude.
However, the City Lord did not care about any of that. In his eyes, these refugees were destined to not live for more than a few days and they would all die sooner or later. As long as this batch of refugees were completely wiped out, in the eyes of the other refugees who came into the city later, he would still be the "benevolent" City Lord!
The City Lord had wanted to throw Jun Wu Xie into prison. As long as he pinned the crime of murder onto Jun Wu Xie, he would have an excuse to confiscate all these lofts.
But, after the soldiers searched for four whole hours, carefully searching through every nook and cranny of every loft, they still could not find any trace of a corpse, not even a single drop of blood.
Such a result, caused the City Lord to be completely dumbfounded.
Liu Er and his companions had just been killed by Jun Wu Xie today. According to what the refugees had said, Liu Er and his companions had died horribly and their blood had stained the ground. It had only been two to four hours and even if Jun Wu Xie had been prepared, it would not have been possible for him to have completely wiped out every single trace.
"Go search again! This time, dig up every inch of this land for me! " The City Lord glared at Jun Wu Xie through gritted teeth. Jun Wu Xie's face was still the same cold and indifferent expression, unable to tell whether she was happy or angry. That kind of calm and indifferent demeanour continued to incite the City Lord's rage.
However, even if the soldiers dug three feet into the ground, they still did not find anything. The city lord stubbornly stayed in the northern part of the city until the moon was dim, but he still did not find the evidence he wanted.
Having gained nothing, the City Lord wished for nothing more than to grab Jun Wu Xie by the collar and demand to know where he had hidden all those bodies!
"Are you satisfied?" Jun Wu Xie's arms were crossed over her chest as she looked calmly at the City Lord whose face was twitching, her clear eyes cold and clear.
The City Lord gritted his teeth secretly but he did not have any chance to retaliate. He could only glare fiercely at Jun Wu Xie as he retreated.
Not only did the City Lord find it strange, even the refugees who had witnessed the massacre of Six Two and his gang were completely baffled, not knowing when Jun Xie had managed to erase all the evidence.
