Chapter 1378 - 310: Heavenly Patrol (Part 3)
Just like when Ye Guichen previously released the residual souls, Panlong would immediately focus its attention on those souls.
However, if a sorcerer could deceive Panlong, then even if the Demon Clan were to appear, they would not be discovered.
After Ye Guichen understood this, he felt inexplicably that sorcerers seemed quite impressive.
According to Yang Huai’an, if a sorcerer is powerful enough, they could kill someone from thousands of miles away with just one word.
This kind of sorcery is called incantation magic.
It seems that the cultivation system truly allows for a hundred flowers to blossom.
Ye Guichen remained silent.
Yang Huai’an pondered for a moment and then stated his intention: "Mr. Ye, since you know the Second Prince, could you help us find him as soon as possible?"
Ye Guichen did not agree hastily.
Judging by the situation, there should indeed be Evil People appearing in the city.
And the person controlling the black cats is very likely an extremely powerful sorcerer.
In Yang Huai’an’s view, this kind of sorcerer is a Demon Path practitioner.
However, since he had a connection with Qin Muge and Qin Muge recognized him as an elder brother, Ye Guichen naturally couldn’t stand idly by.
After some thought, Ye Guichen was about to nod and agree when someone suddenly rushed in from outside in a panic.
That person knocked the teacup out of Shen Lang’s hand as he entered, covered in blood, and fell directly in front of Yang Huai’an: "Boss, something terrible has happened, we, we were attacked by a group of black cats, and the casualties are severe, brothers, brothers, they are all dead, only I barely escaped."
"What?" Shen Lang pulled the person up: "Liu Tongluo, were you also attacked by black cats?"
Liu Tongluo hesitated, seeming to hear something amiss: "Were you also attacked by black cats?"
Yang Huai’an immediately stood up: "Now is not the time to discuss this, immediately notify everyone, let all the colleagues of the Heavenly Patrol be alert, if they encounter black cats, do not confront them directly, immediately send a signal for help."
Shen Lang knew the gravity of the situation and didn’t dare to delay, so he turned to issue the order.
After that, Yang Huai’an helped Liu Tongluo up and gave him a pill to swallow: "Where did it happen?"
"In the area we were patrolling." Although Liu Tongluo was covered in blood, he was obviously not badly injured, it was just the blood of those black cats and his companions, otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have been able to escape at all.
Then, Liu Tongluo briefly described what happened.
It was basically similar to what happened with Shen Lang.
First, they heard someone scream in agony, then a group went to check and ended up being trapped in the alley.
They had never really considered the black cats a threat, but who could have imagined that those black cats were extremely terrifying, and anyone caught would die on the spot.
As Liu Tongluo recalled, he couldn’t hide the terror in his eyes: "Boss, what should we do? All of my subordinates are dead, what should we do now?"
Yang Huai’an looked grim: "You go rest first, remember, keep this matter confidential, I will decide what to do next."
Liu Tongluo, although unsure of Yang Huai’an’s intentions, nodded and turned to leave.
Very quickly, Shen Lang returned after passing on the command.
"Boss, what should we do next?" Shen Lang asked with a serious expression.
Two patrol teams were consecutively attacked by black cats. If the culprit isn’t quickly found, Dragon City will be in unrest.
Yang Huai’an was also at a loss for a moment, pondering before speaking in a deep voice: "Let’s go check the East City West Gate Alley that you mentioned."
Then he turned to Ye Guichen and cupped his fists: "Mr. Ye, sorry to trouble you."
Ye Guichen didn’t evade, nodding: "Let’s go, I have nothing better to do anyway."
Ye Guichen was particularly eager to meet this sorcerer.
This kind of person was fascinating.
But he wondered, would this sorcerer still be so terrifying when facing him?
Seeing Ye Guichen agreeing, Yang Huai’an was pleased: "Thank you, Mr. Ye!"
Subsequently, the three headed straight for the East City, arriving at West Gate Alley No. 53.
According to Shen Lang, this was originally an outer residence bought by a minister named Situ Jingtian, seemingly for housing women.
However, later on, Situ Jingtian seemed to have harassed the Emperor’s woman and was directly made a eunuch, imprisoned.
Soon after, Situ Jingtian died.
All of his properties were taken back by the Emperor.
Most have become abandoned residences by now.
Shen Lang was familiar with this because he lived nearby; the case of Situ Jingtian’s harassment shook the entire Dragon City which he personally investigated.
"Since this is Situ Jingtian’s outer residence, no one has been here for more than three years. Look, even the gate is rusted." Shen Lang pointed to the gate of the residence.
This residence isn’t particularly big, but considered quite extravagant for a home.
Yang Huai’an nodded, suddenly asking: "By the way, Shen Tongluo, you were also involved in this case. When Situ Jingtian’s harassment caused such an uproar and the Emperor was outraged, what happened to Situ Jingtian’s body after he died?"
Shen Lang thought for a moment, then replied: "According to the people at the prison, after Situ Jingtian died, his body was simply thrown into the mass grave."
"Thrown away?" Yang Huai’an continued to ask: "Does Situ Jingtian have any relatives?"
Shen Lang replied: "Interestingly, Situ Jingtian held a rather high status in the Daqian Dynasty, reaching the second rank in the civil service, but he was a civil official who never married. Yet, he had quite a few concubines outside, but none bore him any children. Since it was discovered he had provoked the Emperor’s woman, those concubines disappeared overnight without a trace, as if they never existed. We searched all over Dragon City for them back then but found no clues. After Situ Jingtian died, the matter was simply left unresolved."
