Cultivating for Immorality: I Evolved Martial Arts into the Immortal Path – Chapter 90

Chapter 90: Law Enforcement Hall

Third Aunt believes that Chu Liang killed Third Uncle.

But she doesn’t dare to question Chu Liang.

Chu Liang’s strength is too great, and he simply doesn’t acknowledge these relatives of his.

In the small Qing Shi Village, Chu Liang is the sky, able to easily kill anyone.

Previously, when Chu Liang was in Qing Shi Village, Third Aunt didn’t even dare to appear before him.

But now, Chu Liang has gone to the county town to learn martial arts, and his enemies have appeared in Qing Shi Village to investigate him. This gives Third Aunt some other ideas.

“Master, your Third Aunt has been exaggerating the matter of Third Uncle’s disappearance, and she keeps trying to direct the blame towards you. She definitely wants Wu Neng’s teammates to connect the two disappearances.”

On the surface, these two incidents seem unrelated.

One was dragged away by a bear, and the other disappeared while traveling at night.

But as long as someone connects the dots and pins both incidents on Chu Liang, it will be easy to make the relevant people suspicious.

In fact, these two incidents were indeed committed by Chu Liang.

However, he did it very well, using Corpse Melting Liquid and Corpse Dissolving Powder to destroy the corpses and eliminate all traces, leaving no evidence for anyone to find.

“Master, Rat Two wanted to deal with Third Aunt, but she is, after all, related to you by blood. Moreover, taking action now would be too obvious and would only arouse more suspicion. So he held back and asked me to come back and ask for your instructions.” Rat One, holding his furry little belly, stood on the stone table and asked Chu Liang.

“No need to do anything, don’t be rash.” Chu Liang was calm. “Let them investigate, there’s no evidence.”

“Alright.”

“Keep an eye on Wu Neng and see when he leaves the city.”

“Yes.”

Rat One flicked his gray tail and hurried away, disappearing into the night.

At this time, Wu Neng’s teammates were rushing back overnight.

They originally thought that Wu Qian was most likely killed by a demon beast, and Chu Liang was the second possibility.

But after hearing Third Aunt’s words, they changed their minds.

“Could that woman be lying to us?” One of them asked.

“No, we are martial artists. Didn’t you see how she was trembling in fear? I’ve made inquiries, and Chu Liang doesn’t have a good relationship with most of his relatives in the Chu family, only with that Chu Erniu.” Another replied.

“That’s true. There’s no reason for that woman to lie to us.”

“In that case, Chu Liang most likely did kill his Third Uncle and used some method to make his Third Uncle’s corpse disappear.”

If Chu Liang could make Third Uncle disappear, he could naturally make Wu Qian disappear!

Everyone had the same thought.

They must hurry back and inform Wu Neng.

Wu Neng had promised that after this matter was over, he would take out half of his Martial Alliance Merit Points and distribute them among the teammates who helped.

He was very sincere.

In addition, everyone had a good relationship with Wu Qian and were already wondering why he had disappeared.

Therefore, for more than a month, they had been doing their best to find Wu Qian’s whereabouts.

It was late at night, the sound of horse hooves was rapid, and dust billowed as the group rushed into the county town. They rushed to the Martial Alliance overnight and found Wu Neng, who was discussing matters with others.

“Boss Wu!”

“Big Brother!”

“Boss, we have very important news!”

The group was covered in dust and didn’t even have time to rest before they told Wu Neng everything.

After listening, Wu Neng stood up abruptly, his body surging with killing intent.

“Chu Liang!”

He growled, his voice full of anger: “I suspected him from the beginning. Damn that Song Zhong! If he hadn’t stopped me, I would have already captured Chu Liang and interrogated him thoroughly!”

“Boss, it’s not too late to act now.”

“It’s troublesome now!” Wu Neng clenched his fist. “Now that he’s hiding in the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall, if we forcefully move against him, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. Not to mention whether we can break into the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall, even if we have the ability, we have to be mindful of the rules!”

There are rules in the county town!

These rules were not written down anywhere, but they were well known.

You can’t cause too much of a disturbance in the county town, otherwise, it’s disrespecting the County Magistrate.

The reason why the Green Robe Gang dared to make trouble was that they had the backing of the county government, so they could be considered to be making trouble under orders.

They had searched the entire city before, and although they didn’t find the Nineteenth Wife, they did discover some small actions of some of the county town’s forces.

Wu Neng and his group were no match for the Green Robe Gang.

◈◈◈

Besides, they couldn’t even break into the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall.

Didn’t you see that the Green Robe Gang was thwarted at the gate of the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall?

“Even the Green Robe Gang couldn’t do it, and we are far less powerful than the Green Robe Gang.” Wu Neng was filled with resentment. Just because he missed the first opportunity, he could no longer find a good opportunity to move against Chu Liang.

He didn’t know that Chu Liang was also looking for an opportunity.

If he had acted the first time, Wu Neng and the others would probably be dead by now and wouldn’t have lived until now.

“Boss, what should we do?” Someone asked.

“Borrow power!”

“Borrow power?”

“That’s right!”

Wu Neng suppressed his anger and calmed himself down.

He looked at the others and said solemnly: “Why did that Chu Liang dare to face the Green Robe Gang directly? It was because he was borrowing the power of the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall! If he can borrow power, so can we.”

“Boss, whose power are we borrowing?”

“Let me think.”

Wu Neng pondered for a moment. The power he borrowed had to be able to overwhelm the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall, so that he could free his hands to deal with Chu Liang.

In the entire county town, only the four forces with Skin Tempering Realm experts could overwhelm the Autumn Blade Martial Arts Hall.

The Black Market and the Qin Clan Merchant Guild were out of the question. These two would not interfere.

As for the county government, the County Magistrate would probably not bother with this matter.

It could only be their Martial Alliance.

“Go to the Law Enforcement Hall.” Wu Neng said coldly.

“The Law Enforcement Hall?”

“That’s right! That Chu Liang killed my brother Wu Qian to seize the tiger demon’s corpse. I must seek justice for this!”

“This…”

The others looked at each other. They weren’t stupid, so they naturally understood Wu Neng’s meaning.

Wu Neng wasn’t trying to seek justice.

He made up this excuse of fighting over benefits just to get Chu Liang into the Martial Alliance’s dungeon.

Once he was in the dungeon, everything would be out of Chu Liang’s control.

“If this matter is brought to the Law Enforcement Hall and handled as the boss said, then even if Chu Liang doesn’t die, he will lose a layer of skin.”

“Boss, will the Law Enforcement Hall believe us?”

“Success depends on the person!”

Wu Neng said decisively: “The Law Enforcement Hall doesn’t enforce the law, they enforce relationships. Do you understand?”

“Understood!”

“We all understand.”

Everyone nodded.

The martial world is not only about fighting and killing, but also about relationships and connections.

As for how to build relationships, that was Wu Neng’s own business.

“You go and inform the others. Tell them to come to the Law Enforcement Hall as well and wait for me outside. I need to go to the bank to retrieve a treasure!”

“Alright!”

Wu Neng and the others split up, acting quickly and decisively without any hesitation.

About an incense stick’s worth of time later, Wu Neng and the other ten or so members of the team met outside the Martial Alliance’s Law Enforcement Hall.

He was carrying a package.

Although they didn’t know what was in the package, everyone understood that it must be something extremely valuable.

“Wait for me here. I’ll go in and pay a visit to the Law Enforcement Hall Master!”

Wu Neng gave instructions and then entered the Law Enforcement Hall alone with the package.
