Bang! Bang!
Two explosions resounded between heaven and earth.
The surrounding people were still in a daze.
Then, they saw that the Butcher and the Attendant Sword, the two assassins, had been turned into a mass of flesh and blood under the immense power.
Thick blood, with a fishy smell, and countless pieces of flesh exploded.
They were scattered all around the port.
They were also scattered on the people's bodies.
Then, the aura between heaven and earth gradually calmed down.
The atmosphere was still tense.
However, at this time, the people were not frightened or worried. They were just shocked.
He was too powerful!
Li Wuyou was unimaginably powerful at this moment.
Two experts in the Vajra Realm launched a sneak attack.
This was something that no one could resist.
However, Li Wuyou did not dodge.
He had forcefully blocked the attack with his own body and remained unscathed.
Then, he killed the two of them so easily.
He did not even leave a complete corpse for them.
It was unbelievable.
In just a few short months, why did the Superintendent's strength seem to have changed so drastically?
"Superintendent!"
After a short moment of silence, Qiu Yunhai and the others finally reacted.
They rushed to Li Wuyou's left and right, knelt at his feet and said in a deep voice.
"We did not protect you well and frightened you!"
"Please punish us, Superintendent."
As Qiu Yunhai and the others knelt down, the officials in charge of this matter from Qingzhou also knelt down at Li Wuyou's feet and shouted.
"We did not do our job well and frightened you. Please punish us, Superintendent."
"Forget it."
Li Wuyou smiled faintly. He activated his True Energy and shook off the flesh and blood on his body.
Then, he said,
"It's just two insignificant Assassins. It's not enough to scare me."
"Thank you, Superintendent."
When everyone heard Li Wuyou's words, their faces revealed a trace of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.
The Superintendent was attacked.
According to common sense, everyone present should be punished.
However, the Superintendent seemed to be in a good mood this time.
People were not punished.
This made everyone rejoice in their hearts.
"However …"
Just as everyone was rejoicing, Li Wuyou spoke again.
He clasped his hands behind his back, looked towards the south, and said with a smile.
"I don't want to let go of the mastermind behind the assassination."
"Qiu Yunhai."
"Your subordinate is here!"
Qiu Yunhai took two steps forward and cupped his fists.
"Tell the spies from the East Faction Guards to investigate the identities of the two assassins and send them to me before tonight. Then, send the experts from the East Faction Guards to me."
"After confirming the identity of the assassins, we will make the people behind them pay the price."
Li Wuyou's voice was eerie and terrifying, like a demon that wanted to eat people.
"Yes!"
Qiu Yunhai could hear the killing intent in Li Wuyou's tone and a sinister look appeared in his eyes.
He cupped his fists and brazenly retreated.
Then, a group of people from the Eastern Branch followed Qiu Yunhai and left quickly.
"Rise, all of you."
Li Wuyou looked at the rest of the officials who were kneeling on the ground. His expression returned to normal as he said with a smile, "Don't worry about it.
"Follow me back to Qinzhou."
"Yes!"
None of the officials dared to show the slightest bit of negligence. They all got up and surrounded Li Wuyou.
They accompanied the mighty group to the government office of Qinzhou.
…
Next.
It was an old-fashioned arrangement.
The officials and generals of the Ginkou Prefecture arranged a grand welcoming banquet for Li Wuyou.
Li Wuyou was really not interested in these things.
He was even a little annoyed.
However, he could not refuse.
This was a way for the people below to express their feelings to him and strengthen the bond between them.
If he really wanted to be a loner like before and did not care about anything.
Then, the people below him would panic.
Soon, they would be alienated from him.
Only when he expressed some of his needs, the people below him would know what he wanted and cater to his interests.
Only then would they feel that there was hope.
Then, they would work even harder for him.
Under such circumstances.
He could not be a loner.
The reception was busy until late at night.
It was finally over.
Many of the officials and generals left one after another.
Li Wuyou was still sober. Then, accompanied by his servants, he returned to the government office of Qinzhou.
He still had to wait for the news from Qiu Yunhai.
It was brightly lit.
The officials in the government office were a little listless.
But when they saw Li Wuyou's carriage, they immediately perked up.
They bowed to salute.
Li Wuyou did not care about these.
Accompanied by a few servants, he walked into the government office.
In a solemn room.
Qiu Yunhai was standing there respectfully, waiting for him.
"Greetings, Superintendent."
Qiu Yunhai knelt in front of Li Wuyou and said in a clear voice.
"Rise."
Li Wuyou walked into the government office with Qiu Yunhai. He sat in the seat that originally belonged to the magistrate of Qinzhou.
Shen Lianxin lit the lamps one by one.
Qiu Yunhai handed the file that he had prepared in advance to Li Wuyou.
"Reporting to the Superintendent."
Qiu Yunhai took the opportunity while Li Wuyou was slowly flipping through the dossier and reading it. Qiu Yunhai gave a simple explanation.
"After the investigation of the spies of the East Factory, they found that they were the Butcher and the Attendant Sword, who had disappeared from Jianghu for a long time."
"These two people belong to Gojoseon Zhennan and Seongdeokroku respectively."
"They are the Vajra Guards of these two people."
"They are responsible for the safety of these two people."
"This time, the two of them appeared together to assassinate the Superintendent. However, they did not join forces."
"The blankets of the East Factory are arranged around Gojoseon Zhennan and Seongdeokroku. These two people do not intend to cooperate. Instead, they are fighting for territory in Diannan."
"Therefore, according to my estimation …"
"The Butcher and the Attendant Sword met halfway and made a private decision to join forces to assassinate the Superintendent."
After that, Qiu Yunhai quieted down.
He waited for Li Wuyou's order.
"Well, your analysis is very detailed. It makes sense."
At this time, Li Wuyou had also gradually finished reading the contents of the file.
He nodded his head slightly.
He placed the file on the table and leaned forward. He looked at Qiu Yunhai with a smile and asked.
"Tell me, how do you think we should solve this matter?"
"This …"
When Qiu Yunhai heard this, his eyes flickered and he smiled sinisterly.
"The Superintendent's safety is of great importance!"
"We can't forgive anyone who dares to assassinate the Superintendent."
"Why don't we give Gojoseon Zhennan and Seongdeokroku a gift in return?"
"The East Factory has some blankets around them."
"This humble one can expose a portion of these people so that their backyards will become lively."
"Approved."
Li Wuyou said with a smile.
"Also, inform the Qinzhou Army to prepare for the march to Diannan."
"I will accompany the army personally."
"Let's meet Gojoseon Zhennan!"
