Great Master Liu was confused: “Ore, what ore?”

Hua Wu Xiang realised that he didn’t seem to be lying, and his eyes darkened.

“The ore in Great Bridge Mountain, where did you take it?” Envoy Zuo asked.

“The ore in Great Bridge Mountain? I didn’t take the ore!” Great Master Liu said, “When I left, the mining hadn’t started!”

“Then why did you run away?”

“Aren’t Envoy You and the others dead? So many people have died but I am still alive, that makes me look guilty!” Great Master Liu said.

Envoy You was indeed dead. Envoy Zuo felt a trace of sadness in his heart for a second, then he continued to interrogate him: “How did Envoy You and the others die? Why are they all dead and you’re still alive?”

“They were killed by forces!” When he recalled the scene of their deaths, Great Master Liu’s face showed deep fear, “Dead, dead, they’re all dead! None of them died with a complete corpse, they all died so tragically.”

Envoy Zuo glanced at Hua Wu Xiang, he knew that Hua Wu Xiang also believed Great Master Liu’s words.

“Tell me what happened from the beginning to the end, if you dare to tell me anything false…”

“I’ll speak, I’ll speak.” There was no need for threats to make an impact.

Great Master Liu told them everything that happened after he entered the mountain and didn’t leave out a single detail. It wasn’t the first time anyone in the room had heard of those things, so they weren’t shocked. What shocked them was the person Great Master Liu mentioned.

According to Great Master Liu, when he left, the mining hadn’t started, so the ore in the mountain should still be there. It took three or four days from that time to when the soldiers reported that the chill had weakened and disappeared. Therefore, that meant that the big mountain was evacuated in three or four days!

This news was so shocking that no matter who it was, or what method the person had used, was just too incredulous!

If this person was their enemy, then the consequences were unimaginable!

After Envoy Zuo had finished the interrogation, he had someone take him away, then he said to Hua Wu Xiang: “If what he said is true, then that soldier is probably not our soldier.”

“Of course not. We can’t afford to maintain such a powerful soldier.” Hua Wu Xiang sneered, “Tell him to draw a portrait of that person, he is wanted all over the world.”

“Yes!” Envoy Zuo replied: “Commander, can the closure of the city be lifted? It’s been many days and quite a number of people are starting to voice their opinions. Some umbrella loose cultivators are starting to cause trouble.”

“Let the city lord here deal with it, get rid of those who cause trouble.” Hua Wu Xiang said with indifference.

“Yes, Commander.” Envoy Zuo indicated with his eyes at the person beside him and the person went out and made the arrangements.

“No news from Nan Yu Miao yet?”

“No. They have appeared in Wu Xiang City previously, but for some reason, they were able to escape.”

Hua Wu Xiang glanced at him faintly: “Tell them to come over here to receive their punishment. If it happens again, they won’t keep their lives.”
