I Can See Through All Things' Information

The city gate guards, being individuals of low status, naturally were unrecognizable to the Azure Dragon City Lord.

However, upon seeing that Hu Lao San stepped out from behind Lu Qing, his demeanor instantly became amiable,

and he said, "There's no need for excess formalities. You just said that you know where there is evidence of the Qi Family's involvement in triggering the Fenzhou plague, is that true?"

"Yes, I wouldn't dare to fabricate such a claim!" Hu Lao San replied.

"Where is the evidence now?"

"The evidence is not with me, but in the hands of Third Young Master Ji."

At this revelation, everyone was once again shocked.

How did this matter involve the Ji Family's youngest son?

"Fei'er?" At this moment, a startled cry rang out, and a figure dropped down from the roof, "Honorable warrior, do you know where my Fei'er is?"

The crowd saw that it was the Ji Family Master, who had landed in the courtyard.

Seeing the anxious look on the Ji Family Master's face, everyone understood the situation.

Rumor had it that the Ji Family's youngest son had been missing for some time, so it was no wonder that he was so distraught upon suddenly hearing news of him.

"Ji Family Master, please be assured, the Third Young Master should currently be safe from any fatal danger," Hu Lao San reassured.

Hearing that his son was still alive, the Ji Family Master's heart eased, and he continued to ask urgently, "Where is the young one now?"

"I'm sorry, I cannot disclose his location at present, Ji Family Master. Although the Third Young Master is not in life-threatening danger, he has still sustained serious injuries.

I cannot reveal his whereabouts carelessly."

"Right, right."

The Ji Family Master suddenly realized that Hu Lao San had said his youngest son possessed evidence regarding the Fenzhou plague.

Clearly, his recent disappearance was related to this.

Should the hiding place be leaked now, the consequences could be unimaginable.

He broke out in a cold sweat, realizing that, had Hu Lao San not been cautious, he might have inadvertently brought doom upon his own son.

With this in mind, the Ji Family Master looked at Hu Lao San with a touch of gratitude.

"Hu Lao San, you just mentioned that there is evidence of the Fenzhou plague in the hands of Third Young Master Ji, is that so?" the Azure Dragon City Lord asked with composure, waiting until the Ji Family Master had calmed down before inquiring.

"This is according to a personal letter Third Young Master Ji left for me, it's absolutely true."

"Where is that letter now?"

"The letter has been destroyed by me. When I had just finished reading the letter and hadn't yet notified the Ji Family, Qi Family's Fourth's men broke in, led by him.

In desperation, I had to destroy the letter at once, to avoid exposing the whereabouts of Third Young Master Ji."

Upon hearing this, Qi Family's Fifth, who had been feeling uneasy, was somewhat relieved.

He first glanced at the corpse of Qi Wenzheng, resenting him for not reporting such a significant matter to the family in advance.

Then, he began to play the victim: "City Lord, you've heard them as well. These are just their side of the story.

These people are all suspicious, and their only intention is to slander our Qi Family. You must certainly render justice for us!"

Seeing Qi Family's Fifth with a face full of grievances, Lu Qing looked at him curiously, which only made Qi Family's Fifth more uneasy.

But he knew that this was no time to back down.

Otherwise, if the blame for causing the plague were to be confirmed, their Qi Family would fall into an irretrievable abyss.

Despite his trepidation, he still shouted fiercely: "You scoundrel, what are you looking at? Don't think that with your formidable cultivation, you can cover the sky with one hand.

If you're really so overbearing and want to defame our Qi Family, then I'll simply petition Holy Mountain and request that the three Saint Masters see justice is done for us!

You dared to incite combat at the Innate Level within the city and violently massacred our Qi Family's Innate, violating the Holy Mountain's edicts.

I refuse to believe that even Holy Mountain won't give our Qi Family fair judgment!"

The mention of Holy Mountain sent a shiver through everyone's hearts.

While Holy Mountain seldom intervened, the rule against sparking Innate Level battles within the city was an edict of Holy Mountain.

Once someone violated it, even if they escaped to the ends of the earth, they would still be held accountable by Holy Mountain.

However, when Qi Family's Fifth made his stand, before Lu Qing had any reaction, the Azure Dragon City Lord was already looking at him with a strange expression.

Regrettably, Qi Family's Fifth did not notice his look.

At that moment, all his hatred was focused on Lu Qing.

"Indeed, the guilty party files the suit first."

Lu Qing shook his head, no longer wanting to waste words with them.

With a minor thought, a Sword Qi materialized and slashed towards Qi Family's Fifth.

Qi Family's Fifth's eyes bulged in an instant.

He never expected Lu Qing to strike at this time.

Though he wanted to dodge, severely injured as he already was, how could he possibly evade Lu Qing's sharp Sword Qi?

He was instantly cleaved in two by the Sword Qi, dying immediately.

"What gave you the illusion that I would worry about Holy Mountain's view if I wished to kill you?"

With a casual slash, Lu Qing executed Qi Family's Fifth, and his voice rose calmly.

"What?!"

Lu Qing's move took everyone by surprise.

All the experts looked at him in astonishment,

none of them had expected that after he mentioned Holy Mountain, he would still dare to kill someone in public.

This was clearly a sign of complete disregard for Holy Mountain!

Only the Azure Dragon City Lord, despite his heart skipping a few beats, managed to keep his face calm, seemingly not surprised by this turn of events.

"City Lord, since Third Young Master Ji has the evidence in hand, I will not mince words further.

If you still have doubts, you may investigate the truth yourself. I won't stay any longer."

After killing Qi Family's Fifth, Lu Qing showed no change in expression,

as if he had merely stepped on an ant.

But he no longer had the desire to stay here any longer.

"Young Master Lu jests, Qi Family's Fifth's threatening demeanor just now clearly indicated his guilty conscience.

Even if the Qi Family is not the mastermind behind the epidemic in Fengzhou, they must be connected to it.

I, Zhang, will certainly investigate thoroughly and will not let the Qi Family escape justice," the City Lord stated.

Hearing these words, everyone's eyelids twitched.

Good heavens, it seems the City Lord is already condemning the Qi Family.

Could this young man's background really be that frightening,

to the point that even the usually fair City Lord completely abandons his principles, seeking only to please him?

"In that case, I shall take my leave."

Lu Qing turned away and said to Hu Zezhi, "Miss Hu, Uncle Hu, it seems you can no longer stay in Azure Dragon City.

Why not leave the city with us for the time being?"

"Okay."

Hu Zezhi didn't even think before agreeing immediately.

As for Uncle Hu, he hesitated briefly but did not object.

This time they had thoroughly offended the Qi Family.

Whether the Qi Family would seek revenge, he did not know.

But he and his daughter definitely couldn't stay in the city any longer,

otherwise, who knows if they might be found dead in their home one day.

"Dad, let's pack our things!"

After the experience in Central State, Hu Zezhi had grown tougher.

Immediately, she helped her father gather their belongings, ignoring the strong experts still around, and went inside the house to pack their luggage.

Before long, the two emerged with their valuable possessions all packed, each carrying a bundle.

"Mr. Lu, we are ready."

"Hmm," nodded Lu Qing and turned to walk out, "Let's go."

"Ji Family Master, Third Young Master Ji's location is on this piece of paper.

He's been seriously injured; you should hurry. I'm afraid he won't last if you're too late,"

Uncle Hu took out a slip of paper and handed it to Ji Family Master.

After Ji Family Master received the paper, Uncle Hu glanced at his house of many years one last time with Hu Zezhi's assistance and followed them out.

Seeing Lu Qing and the others leave as if no one else mattered, the Innate Realm Experts exchanged glances,

but likewise, not a single one dared to speak out or intervene.

After all, even the City Lord had just stood by, so they dared not make any moves themselves.

It wasn't until they could no longer sense the presence of Lu Qing and his group that someone approached the Azure Dragon City Lord.

"City Lord, are we truly letting them go just like that?"

"Would you like to try stopping him?" the City Lord countered with a glare at the foolish man before him.

"City Lord, who exactly is this individual that commands such fear from you?

He started an Innate-level conflict right in the city and just leaves triumphantly, while we show no response.

If Holy Mountain faults us, I'm afraid none of us will escape punishment," another said.

"Rest assured, Holy Mountain will not punish us," the Azure Dragon City Lord said enigmatically.

"Because this individual is now an existence that even Holy Mountain does not dare to provoke lightly."
