Martial Arts Becomes Invincible Starting from the Golden Body

Chapter 49 Misunderstanding
After taking a walk to relax himself, Fang Chen returned to the martial arts gym.

In the front yard study

As soon as Fang Chen came in, he saw Li Zhen sighing and crying. Out of curiosity, he moved closer.

"Brother, what happened?"

Li Zhen raised his head, smiled at him, and then handed him a small piece of paper.

"See for yourself!"

Fang Chen took it doubtfully, unfolded the letter, and began to read it.

……

After a long time, he closed the letter and understood what was going on.

This records the number of missing persons over the past month.

In the past month, nearly twenty people have disappeared in the outer city of Tongcheng for no apparent reason!

This is absolutely abnormal!

Now all the major forces in Tongcheng are still trying their best to maintain stability. After all, they are the king of this area. For the time being, chaos will not do them any good.

Although there are gangs everywhere in the outer city, they are basically under the control of major forces, and they mainly use intimidation to extort money from the people.

After all, they are just a group of small fry who are used to being bullied. Killing one or two of them to serve as a warning to others can keep them in check for several years!
But the most important thing is that this is a disappearance without reason, not death!

It would be fine if they died and their bodies could be found. A few people die in every gang fight. Twenty people died in the past month. Although it is a bit too much, basically no one cares.

But disappearance is different. No one sees the person alive or dead, which proves that someone is behind the scenes, destroying the balance that the major forces have worked so hard to maintain. This is something the major forces absolutely cannot tolerate!
Once panic and chaos break out in the outer cities, their interests will be the first to be affected.

However, Liyang Martial Arts School is not the most anxious one. Their master is careful about his reputation and does not interfere in the business of plundering the people's wealth.

Li Guiyuan is not a good person, but he is definitely not a bad person either. In troubled times, it is enough to be able to do what Li Guiyuan did, and his good reputation is not groundless.

In this case, their martial arts school does not have much interest in the outer city, so there is no need to worry about it. Let other forces worry about it first.

But they know something that others don't...

"Brother, do you suspect Hu Rui has taken action?"

Fang Chen looked at Li Zhen who was drinking tea and asked in a low voice.

"Yeah!" Li Zhen put down the teacup and nodded slightly.

"Why would he do that?"

Fang Chen was puzzled. Why would Hu Rui pick on some civilians? Was it just to vent his anger?

"According to what Shi Shi said, Hu Rui must have been seriously injured. Without the healing elixir, he might not have recovered by now, and his injuries might even get worse."

"Maintaining a serious injury state for a long time will damage your bones!" Li Zhen sighed.

Fang Chen nodded. In a state of severe injury, the leakage of Qi and blood would not be a problem in the short term, but if it continued for a long time it would damage the essence and even shorten one's lifespan!
"And I've heard that there's an evil method in the world that can replenish one's own body with the lives of others!" Li Zhen said with emotion.

"Brother, are you saying that Hu Rui might be using this method to heal his wounds? He can't bear it anymore?!"

Fang Chen understood that this proved that Hu Rui's injuries were indeed serious to a certain extent!
Shaking his head, Fang Chen threw away all the thoughts in his mind. He had no intention of picking up the remaining blood.

Not to mention that these are just speculations of the two. Even if they are true, he is not interested. The gap between him and Hu Rui is too big. As long as the latter has the strength left to strike, he will have to kneel!

"Forget it, there's no use thinking too much. This is not something we can control. Let City Lord Shangguan figure out a solution!" Li Zhen said with a smile.

Fang Chen also nodded. As the lord of Tong County, Xingliu Valley would definitely inform Shangguan Hong about such a big thing as Hu Rui.

Shangguan Hong is the county lord of Tong County who was personally appointed by the Daxuan court. Xingliu Valley has no intention of rebelling now, so he must be informed of certain situations.

……

Shangguanfu

Shangguan Hong is very annoyed now. Hu Rui has not made any movement for such a long time. He thought that he might have left Tongcheng, but he didn't expect that he would do this to him now.

Obviously, his first suspect was also Hu Rui.

"It's really going to cause trouble for me!"

Shangguan Hong tugged at his collar and said hatefully that sometimes he was really afraid that he would not be able to resist and would personally pull that brat out and beat him to death!

"Forget it, I'll endure it for a while." Shangguan Hong slowly calmed down.

"I don't know what's going on with Xingliu Valley and Li Laogui?"

Shangguan Hong couldn't help but think, and then anger appeared in his eyes again, it was all because of this little brat, otherwise I would have gone with him!
He swore silently in his heart that even if he was allowed to escape this time, he would find him and beat him to death in the future!

"Cao Yi!"

"My subordinate is here!"

The black-faced man trotted in hurriedly. The city lord has been very angry recently and he is walking on thin ice!
"How's the investigation going?" Shangguan Hong asked with a stern face.

"This..." Cao Yi hesitated.

Seeing him like this, Shangguan Hong snorted coldly: "Speak!"

"Yes!"

"I have arranged for all the people in the Criminal Law Department to go out, and other forces are also actively cooperating. I believe the mastermind behind this will be caught soon!" Cao Yi said with sweat on his forehead.

"Yes, Master Xu is the most cooperative!"

"Xu Yao? Humph!"

Shangguan Hong curled his lips. This old guy had the greatest influence in the outer city, and almost half of the gangs were under his control. No wonder he was anxious.

The disappearance of twenty people was actually nothing, but the signal it gave was not very good. He had to hand over all the profits from many businesses in the inner city to his superiors, so old man Xu Yao could only hope to make a fortune by plundering the people.

When the outer city was in chaos, Xu Yao was the most anxious one, so Shangguan Hong did not doubt why this old man was so active this time.

"Just right, let this old guy take the lead!"

Shangguan Hong snorted in his heart.

"Go quickly!" He waved his hand and Cao Yi hurriedly retreated.

……

Tian Dao Martial Arts School
Xu Yao frowned, and after a long while, he said unwillingly: "That's it, stop for now, and remember to clean up the beginning and the end!"

After hearing this, Li Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been scared to death these past few days and couldn't sleep for whole nights. He even had no interest in touching his newly married 42nd concubine!
"Go quickly, I will do my best to cover it up." Xu Yao waved his hand.

Li Tao retreated quickly as he was told, but he was thinking in his heart, I can't stand it anymore, if this goes on I will be killed by this old bastard Xu Yao!

I don't know how Zhong'er and Fang Chen are getting along...

After Li Tao left, Xu Yao still frowned, puzzled. "Is Shangguan Hong crazy? Did I mess with his mother's nest?"

With so many people missing in such a short period of time, Xu Yao had thought that various forces would inevitably react, but he didn't expect it to be so big!
"Oh, if only I could find anyone outside, it would be no big deal if so many people were missing!" he sighed in his heart.

"Damn Shangguan Hong, he's always picking on me!"

As he thought about it, Xu Yao became extremely angry, and then he thought of Li Guiyuan, who was also a bastard!
"Snapped!"

He smashed the table in front of him into pieces with one slap, and the servants outside the hall trembled with fear.

……

After sending away another wave of criminal justice officers who came to inspect, Hu Rui and the short man Liu Bo looked at each other.

"Are you exposed?"

"Are you exposed?"

The two asked at the same time.

"fart!"

"fart!"

Then they cursed at the same time.

"Ugh!"

The two of them sighed. There was definitely no exposure, especially if Liu Bo’s matter was exposed, then the people who came today would be people from Xingliu Valley.

Why is that?

Liu Bo was a little confused. Hasn't Tongcheng always been peaceful?
"Forget it, just bear with it for now!" Liu Bo advised.

"Damn, I can't stand it. Why haven't the people from Xingliu Valley arrived yet?"

Hu Rui cursed angrily, I am Hu Rui, a seriously injured Hu Rui, where are you?
He waited so long that even the food got cold!
Although they would not take action immediately even if Feng Chengxuan came now, Hu Rui was still very angry. He felt that he was not given the attention he deserved!

You simply don't treat Tianjiao as a human being!
"Calm down! Calm down!" Liu Bo grabbed his arm and comforted him.

Hu Rui struggled for a while and then his eyes lit up, "Hey, do you think it could be that bastard Feng Chengxuan who is here?"

Liu Bo paused and felt that it was possible.

"Then I'll go out and take a look, you stay!"

Hu Rui did not refuse. He couldn't wait any longer and had to make some noise.

Feng Chengxuan, your grandpa is still here!

……

A small courtyard in the outer city

Wang Yiyun sent the pair of runners away and returned to the secret room.

When several big men saw him come in, they surrounded him.

"Brother Wang!"

"Brother Wang, what's going on?"

"..."

Wang Yiyun pressed his hand and the others stopped talking. The Yellow Turban Army was also called the Brotherhood, and everyone called each other brothers.

In the meeting, yellow scarves embroidered with stars are distributed according to strength and status. The more stars there are, the higher the status, and the more brothers they are.

The star-embroidered yellow scarf is the symbol of honor of the Yellow Turban Army, and many brothers regard it as more important than their lives!
"Oh, I feel like something is not right in Tongcheng." Wang Yiyun sighed.

"Are we exposed?" asked one of the big men.

Wang Yiyun frowned, "It shouldn't be. Our trip is top secret. There are definitely only a few people in the army who know about it. And we have only been here for a few days. How can it be exposed?"

Several people looked at each other and nodded. They had come through the Liuyin Mountains and had not come into contact with anyone during the trip, so there was no reason for them to be exposed!
"Oh, forget it, let's not go out for the next few days!" Wang Yiyun emphasized.

"We have already found out some information, so let's use the Cloud Pigeon to pass the message back!"

"Well, according to investigation, the strongest person in Tongcheng should be a man named Li Guiyuan, who is the owner of Liyang Martial Arts School." A big man spoke.

"Moreover, the city is ruled by eight major forces, and there are probably nearly ten warriors in the Blood Coagulation Realm!"

"Hey, Tongcheng is quite powerful. It's much stronger than our county town in Xuzhou!" another big man exclaimed.

"Xuzhou is not as strong as Liuzhou, but that's it. Under the leadership of Brother Wang Wen, we will definitely be able to take this city!" said another big man.

Wang Yiyun glared and warned, "Nonsense!"

"Remember, the commander never said he wanted to attack Tongcheng!"

"Yes, I said the wrong thing!" the big man said hurriedly.

"Forget it, I won't do it next time!"

Wang Yiyun waved his hand. He couldn't possibly punish his brothers for this. But although they knew the purpose of this trip, there were some things they couldn't say!
Brother Xu Mao ordered them not to enter Liuzhou. Although only the top leaders knew about this, it would be better not to expose their private actions.

……

In a secret room
"What happened to Shangguan Hong?"

Shi Zhang looked at the skinny man in front of him and asked.

"What's going on? How should I know?" Zhao Peng said casually while biting a fruit.

"you!"

Shi Zhang was so angry that he wanted to slap him to death!
Then he thought that he might not be able to win, so he suppressed his anger.

"Don't be so angry!" Zhao Peng said with a smile.

"This is your business. I've already done it for you. Don't forget my share!"

"Wang Wen's people are here?" Shi Zhang frowned.

"Of course, just a few days ago, hey, they wanted to hide it from me. Haha, it's so funny. I even wanted to make friends with them!" Zhao Peng said sarcastically.

"Remember, give me my share next time, otherwise I will be angry!" Zhao Peng said with a smile.

"Let's go. I'm going out to make friends. More friends means more paths to take!"

Shi Zhang looked at his gradually disappearing figure and cursed inwardly, "Bah, you're a psychopath, a jerk!"
