After Ning Zixu woke Ning Qi up, he went downstairs. There was a lot of discussion in the hall.
"Have you heard? Last night, the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan and his son were all killed! "
"Really? How dare someone attack the Zuoqiu Clan? "
Some of them had a horrified look on their faces.
"Why not? The Zuoqiu Clan is in a mess now. The Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan and his descendants were all killed overnight. The murderer must be extraordinary! "
"The Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan is dead?"
Ning Zixu's face showed a trace of astonishment. He called a waiter over and asked, "Is what they said true? The Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan is dead? "
"Customer, it's definitely true. Look at all the constables outside. They're searching the entire city for the culprit. However, in my opinion, the culprit could even kill the patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan without anyone noticing. How could he possibly be caught?"
The waiter said.
"How could it be so coincidental …"
Ning Zixu's expression was strange.
They were just planning to get even with the Zuoqiu Clan, but this happened to the Zuoqiu Clan?
It was too much of a coincidence.
Thinking of this, Ning Zixu suddenly looked at Ning Qi with a strange expression. He shook his head and denied his guess.
No matter how smart he was, it was impossible for him to sneak into the Zuoqiu Clan to kill someone in the middle of the night.
He ordered breakfast.
Ning Zixu ate and said to Ning Qi, "Now that something like this happened to the Zuoqiu Clan, should we change our plan?"
"If the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan is really dead, then there is no need to go. We can just go back to the Ning Mansion."
Ning Qi smiled.
"That's good."
Ning Zixu was relieved. To be honest, he did not have much confidence in going to the Zuoqiu Clan. If it were not for the fact that his cultivation was lower than Ning Qi's and he was afraid that Ning Qi would be in danger on the way alone, he would definitely not agree to this trip.
Now that Ning Qi had rejected this plan, it was like a stone had been lifted from his heart, and he was in a good mood.
"The Zuoqiu Clan got what they deserved. I wonder which Jianghu hero solved a big problem for us this time."
Ning Zixu could not help but laugh.
"There is one more thing."
Ning Qi smiled.
Ning Zixu was slightly startled. "What is it?"
"The Zuoqiu Clan is in chaos now. Our Ning Mansion can take advantage of the situation to annex their businesses."
Ning Qi smiled and said, "Yan Qing and Yan Dong are cultivating in the immortal sect. I'm afraid they will need a lot of pure gold."
"You're right, but our Ning family can only take over some industries that are close to Yanking City. If it's too far away, we won't be able to do anything. When other people find out about the Zuoqiu family, they will also try to annex them."
Ning Zixu nodded slightly.
"It's him. They're from the Ning Clan. I saw them sneaking into the city yesterday. I didn't expect that something would happen to our Zuoqiu Clan today. It must be related to them."
Suddenly, a group of constables walked into the inn. The leader was sneaky and shifty-eyed. He pointed at Ning Zixu and Ning Qi and shouted.
"Hmm?"
Ning Zixu frowned slightly. He hadn't expected that he and Ning Qi would be discovered when they entered Tausha City. However, what made them so certain that they were the ones who harmed the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan and the others?
"Looks like the Zuoqiu Clan wants to deal with the Ning Clan, and many people know about it."
Ning Qi looked at the shifty-eyed man indifferently.
After the group of constables heard the identification, the leader walked in front of Ning Qi and Ning Zixu and looked at Ning Zixu. He cupped his fists and said, "Are you from the Ning Mansion in Yanking City?"
This constable was a rare female constable. She had a curvy figure and a capable look.
"I'm Ning Zixu."
Ning Zixu nodded slowly.
"Someone said that the Zuoqiu Clan and the Ning Clan are not on good terms. Did you enter the city yesterday? Last night, there was a murder in the Zuoqiu Clan. Where were you? "
The female constable said in a low voice.
Ning Zixu glanced at the shifty-eyed middle-aged man and smiled at the female constable. "Xuan 'er and I were in the inn yesterday and didn't step out. Moreover, the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan is rumored to be an Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner. I'm only at the sixth tier of the physical body realm. How could I kill him quietly and let everyone know about it this morning? "
The female constable heard this and nodded subconsciously.
"Constable Shangguan, our Zuoqiu Clan has just started a feud with the Ning Clan. Now that our clan has encountered such a disaster, the Ning Clan will never be able to clear the suspicion."
Seeing this, the shifty-eyed middle-aged man hurriedly said.
"I brought Xuan 'er here to resolve the previous conflict. Constable, you should also know that there will inevitably be some friction in business. However, this is just a small feud. It's not fatal at all."
Ning Zixu said lightly.
Constable Shangguan nodded. "Indeed. Moreover, with your cultivation, you definitely can't let the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan die quietly. His heart was pierced by someone. The opponent's strength is definitely not weaker than the Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan."
Saying this, she ignored the shifty-eyed middle-aged man and cupped her fists at Ning Zixu. Then, she turned around and left with her people.
Seeing this, the shifty-eyed middle-aged man hurriedly turned around and followed. Without the constable present, he didn't dare to stay alone with the Ning Clan.
At this moment, Ning Qi's heart stirred, and he punched him in the back.
Scorching Sun Fist.
In an instant.
A fist print formed from Genuine Qi landed directly on the middle-aged man. The terrifying force sent his body flying and he landed in the middle of the street with a loud bang.
When the passersby saw this, they were shocked and subconsciously moved aside. When they saw that there was something interesting to watch and wanted to get closer, the middle-aged man's body suddenly burst into flames, causing him to scream miserably and gradually burn into charcoal.
Constable Shangguan and her subordinates subconsciously stopped in their tracks with a look of shock on their faces.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't come any closer!"
Constables immediately stopped the passersby.
These passersby didn't dare to approach. Their faces were all filled with horror. Just now, they had seen with their own eyes that the living man directly burned into a ball of fire after falling to the ground!
"This seems to be the steward of the Zuoqiu Clan."
"Could it be that someone has done too many bad things? After this incident in the Zuoqiu Clan, someone burned himself in broad daylight?"
The crowd discussed animatedly.
No one doubted it, and no one saw Ning Qi make a move.
Even Ning Zixu looked at this scene in astonishment.
"He's …"
Constable Shangguan walked to the corpse and squatted down. She found a very obvious fist print on the corpse. Although the corpse was charred, the fist print was still visible to the naked eye.
"Even if he wasn't burned to death, he wouldn't have survived such an injury. The person who did this is probably the murderer who killed the Zuoqiu Clan Master."
Constable Shangguan's eyes revealed a hint of seriousness.
"It's said that only those in the Embryonic Breathing Realm can use Genuine Qi to penetrate the body. I'm still not in the Embryonic Breathing Realm, but I can kill the enemy from a distance. It seems to be the effect of the 40th level of Scorching Sun Fist."
