Inside a pitch-black room, with the only source of light being a lamp in the middle of it, five people were sitting in a circle as if they were discussing something.
They were none other than the five people with the highest authority in the Jing Cha Secret Organisation: master Yien, the old man Jiang Fan, Yan Guan, Ding Sheng, and Lu Yi.
Their facial expressions were different from before. They were now intense and serious. Five pairs of eyes stared at each other.
“Does anyone know what happened to Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo?”
Master Yien broke the silence.
They already knew that Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo had been murdered in Xing Zhou city.
Due to this, the meeting of the five organisation authorities was being held again.
“I don’t know what happened to those two, but I do know that they’ve been murdered!” Yan Guan said with a cold tone.
To have their people killed was as if they had been slapped in the face.
Yan Guan was furious with the man who’d killed Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo!
“Maybe the killer was a cultivator!” the old man Jiang Fan said after sitting there thinking.
His words were effective. The rest of them suddenly changed their facial expressions.

“He must be a cultivator like what elder Jiang Fan said!” Lu Yi was the last to say anything. His face was deadly serious.
“Just think about it. If he wasn’t a cultivator, how could he have killed two formation realm cultivators like Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo?”
Hearing Lu Yi, the youngest one in the room, say that everyone went quiet.
What he said was like a confirmation that the man who’d killed Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo was actually a cultivator!
“No doubt about it. The man who killed Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo was a cultivator for sure. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to kill both of them who were formation realm cultivators!”
Master Yien said this while sweeping his eyes around the room. His wrinkled face was deadly serious.
“It is even possible that he may be an earth solid realm cultivator!”
“An earth solid realm cultivator!” the rest of them shouted after hearing what master Yien said.
If the man who’d killed Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo was actually an earth solid realm cultivator, would that not mean he was as strong as all four of them here?!?
“Is this…true, master Yien?” The old man Jiang Fan inhaled deeply. He stared at master Yien.
Master Yien turned to look at the old man Jiang Fan.
“I’m not certain about this. However, considering that Zhao Suan and Zhuang Mo did not die because of any weapon, only cultivators at the earth solid realm and higher could have killed formation realm cultivators like them with their bare hands!”
After hearing this, everyone in the room went quiet for several minutes.
“It seems the Xi family got involved with the wrong man. I did not think that there would be an earth solid realm cultivator hiding in Xing Zhou city too.” The middle-aged Ding Sheng finally broke the silence.
“Just let it go. We have to think about our next move.” Yan Guan looked at everyone.
Lu Yi raised his brows high. “Like what Yan Guan said, we should think about what we should do. If we send another unit out, I’m afraid the result will turn out the same…”
Lu Yi stopped for a moment and continued, “Unless one of us is dispatched!”
“One isn’t enough. It has to be at least two of us,” Master Yien said immediately after Lu Yu finished speaking.
He thought that if that man was really an earth solid realm cultivator, two earth solid cultivators should be sent. Or he had to go by himself.
The reason why he thought that they had to send two earth solid cultivators was because they did not know how strong the target was.
If the target was stronger than the one they sent, would that not mean the person who had been dispatched had been sent to die in vain?
That was why they had to put two earth solid realm cultivators on the job.
“Two?” The rest of them tried to follow master Yien.
With their intelligence, they could follow master Yien’s line of thinking within seconds.
“Who among the four of us should go then?” The old man Jiang Fan looked at Ding Sheng, Yan Guan, and Lu Yi.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I volunteer. I don’t care who’s going to go with me!” Ding Sheng suddenly laughed. His face was serious, but still full of excitement.
“I haven’t been in a battle with anyone for a long time. This is a good opportunity to fight with a strong earth solid realm cultivator. Maybe I’ll find a different way to improve my power.”
Yan Guan flashed a look at Ding Sheng and nodded. “Not a bad idea. If that’s the case, I’ll go with you.”
The old man Jiang Fan and Lu Yi looked at each other for a while and nodded. They did not object.
Master Yien thought the same. “Be careful. Don’t underestimate him at all!”
“Don’t worry, master Yien. We won’t.”
Ding Sheng and Yan Guan made a pledge and put their hands together to show their respect to master Yien.
They knew that master Yien said this because he was worried about their safety.
The target was an earth solid realm cultivator whose strength was unknown.
Even though it was two of them, nothing could guarantee that they would come back safely.
Therefore, it was only normal for master Yien to tell them not to underestimate the target.
“Well then, when do you want to go?” Lu Yi asked. He looked back and forth between Ding Sheng and Yan Guan.
“Today, of course. We won’t let those who dare to challenge the Jing Cha Secret Organisation live for long!” Ding Sheng was determined.
“Like what Ding Sheng said. We’ll go to Xing Zhou city today after this meeting,” Yan Guan said.
Master Yien, the old man Jiang Fan, and Lu Yi nodded in agreement and wished Yan Guan and Ding Sheng a safe trip.
Half an hour later, the meeting ended. Yan Guan and Ding Sheng quickly traveled to Xing Zhou city right away.
