He came without a shadow, and left without a trace, a dragon seen by the head but not the tail.
This was the most fitting description of Shen Zui.
No one knew he would appear in Nangang tonight, nor would anyone have thought that he would take Caesar away as a captive and leave silently.
Just like no one knew that he had joined the Underworld Hall.
Jiang Wuming watched the direction Shen Zui left, recalling everything Shen Zui had just said. He suddenly felt that Shen Zui's appearance tonight should have been to carry out the order of the Underworld Hall Master—to take him to the Underworld Hall!
As for kidnapping Caesar, that was like killing two birds with one stone.
And Shen Zui, due to his consideration for his fellow disciples, did not strictly execute the order of the Underworld Hall Master but instead extended an invitation to him on behalf of the Underworld Hall.
In such a situation, how would Shen Zui report back?
"Brother Wuming, are you okay?"
After that, before Jiang Wuming could figure anything out, Dongfang Xiaoyao returned to the villa courtyard and appeared in front of Jiang Wuming.
Seeing Jiang Wuming's furrowed brow and somewhat unusual expression, she asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Xiaoyao, let's leave here now."
Jiang Wuming came back to his senses, shook his head, and said.
According to Shen Zui, the Director of the Martial Arts Enforcement Department, Zhu Jian, was nearby, temporarily knocked unconscious. Ye Feng had witnessed what happened earlier. Thus, the people from the Martial Arts Department should appear here soon, and it was not suitable for him and Dongfang Xiaoyao to stay.
Just as Jiang Wuming had predicted, twenty minutes after he left the villa with Dongfang Xiaoyao, people from the Nangang office of the Martial Arts Department arrived, a group of five.
Because of Ye Feng's call, Wang Liang, the director of the Nangang office of the Martial Arts Department, felt uneasy. He called his subordinate and asked him to take people to the villa where Jiang Wuming was staying to see if anything special had happened.
"Uh..."
The five personnel from the Nangang office of the Martial Arts Department, before even reaching the villa, saw the corpses in front of the villa gate and were all stunned.
"Something has indeed gone wrong!"
The flat-headed man in the lead came to his senses first and gave instructions, "Let's go and see!"
As soon as the words fell, he took the lead and rushed towards the villa.
Soon, the flat-headed man and his four colleagues arrived at the villa gate and saw the corpses of Niesen and Jack.
"Jack! This deceased is Jack! It is said that he has cultivated to the peak of a two-star War God and ranked in the top ten of the two-star War God list!"
Soon, one of them walked to Jack's corpse, flipped over Jack's body, saw Jack's face clearly, and exclaimed on the spot.
Swish swish swish...
As his words fell, everyone's expression, including the flat-headed man in the lead, changed!
They did not expect that the person who died here was Jack, the former martial arts prodigy of Europe!
"Who is this person?"
After the shock, another person walked to Niesen's corpse.
"Niesen is also a master of the two-star War God! I saw an evaluation of the two-star War God list on the Shenwang forum. The article said that Niesen is one of the few underestimated two-star War Gods in this world. He is fully capable of ranking in the top ten, or even the top five, of the two-star War God list!"
This time, it was the flat-headed man in the lead who spoke. He was the intelligence chief of the Nangang office of the Martial Arts Department and often browsed the Shenwang forum, paying attention to the global masters.
"Two masters of the two-star War God, both dead here! What happened? Did they come to assassinate Jiang Wuming? Were they killed by the leader of the War Dragon Hall who was secretly protecting Jiang Wuming?"
Upon hearing the words of the flat-headed man in the lead, someone couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart, and then looked at the flat-headed man in the lead.
The other three also looked at the flat-headed man in the lead, expecting him to provide an answer.
"Let's go inside and check the situation."
The man in the lead frowned and gave instructions.
He also guessed that Jack and Niesen were both killed by the leader of the War Dragon Hall, but guesses were just guesses, and he couldn't respond to his colleagues with speculation.
However, even though he didn't know the real answer, he knew that what happened here was a major event, and he needed to figure out all the situations here immediately and report to Wang Liang!
Immediately, the flat-headed man in the lead, with his subordinates, entered the villa courtyard and saw the corpses of the other three one-star War God killers, and recognized their identities.
Besides that, they also inspected the villa and confirmed that there were no other deceased.
After doing all this, the flat-headed man in the lead calmed down and then dialed Wang Liang's number.
"Is everything alright over there?"
As soon as the call was connected, Wang Liang's voice rang out.
After returning home, he couldn't sleep at all and had been waiting for his subordinate's report.
"Di-Director, something big has happened here..."
The flat-headed man in the lead immediately reported everything he and his colleagues had seen to Wang Liang, his heart pounding throughout the process.
Because he knew very well that such a major event had occurred in Nangang, but the Nangang office of the Martial Arts Department was unaware of it, which was serious dereliction of duty!
Even he realized this, let alone Wang Liang?
"You... you all wait for me there, I'm coming over now!"
On the other end of the phone, when Wang Liang heard half of it, he jumped up, and at the same time, Ye Feng's words echoed in his ears: You've gotten yourself into big trouble!
...
After the call ended, the flat-headed man in the lead and his four colleagues waited for Wang Liang's arrival at the villa as per Wang Liang's orders.
During this time, they did not notice that a figure appeared on the roof of the villa like a ghost and then silently left.
Zhu Jian.
The Director of the Martial Arts Enforcement Department, and also the personal disciple of Qi Wufu.
After leaving the villa, he quickly left Shallow Bay and returned to a car he was temporarily using.
Zhu Jian sat in the car, carefully reviewed everything that had happened tonight, then raised his wrist, looked at the time, and after thinking about it, used the special communication watch of the Martial Arts Department to call Qi Wufu.
"Master, is it convenient to report the situation in Nangang to you?"
Zhu Jian spoke first. When he was alone, he habitually called Qi Wufu "Master."
"Speak."
Qi Wufu only replied with one word.
"Master, tonight..."
Zhu Jian immediately reported the events of Shallow Bay tonight in detail to Qi Wufu.
Including Jiang Wuming consecutively killing three one-star War God killers and Niesen and Jack, as well as the details of him being knocked unconscious by a mysterious person when Caesar appeared.
"Did you get a clear look at the person who knocked you out?"
Qi Wufu asked after quietly listening to the report.
"No."
Zhu Jian replied truthfully, his expression somewhat unsightly.
As the Director of the Martial Arts Enforcement Department, he was knocked unconscious without even seeing what the other person looked like. This was simply a great humiliation.
"With your strength, to be knocked unconscious without even the slightest reaction, that person's strength is at least a nine-stage four-star War God."
Qi Wufu said after thinking for a moment.
"Master, who exactly is that person? Could it be a strong individual from abroad?"
Zhu Jian asked with some unease.
The reason he appeared in Nangang was because he received a secret order from Qi Wufu to secretly protect Jiang Wuming in Nangang and seize members of foreign forces at the same time.
If the person who knocked him out was a foreign strong individual, then Jiang Wuming would definitely be abducted, and his mission would be a failure!
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Caesar should be the last member of the foreign forces. The person who knocked you out is a martial artist from China, and he has no hostility towards you or Jiang Wuming. Jiang Wuming will also be fine, so you don't need to worry."
Qi Wufu spoke, dispelling Zhu Jian's worries and doubts.
"Yes, Master!"
Zhu Jian was relieved, then hesitated and asked, "Master, did you know long ago that Jiang Wuming is the leader of the War Dragon Hall?"
"Mm."
Qi Wufu did not hide it.
Because he knew that hiding it was meaningless.
After tonight, this secret would no longer be a secret!
