"Pfft..."
A mouthful of black blood spurted from Cui Xi's mouth.
The next second, Cui Xi's body completely recovered. Cui Xi scanned the assassins, raised his leg, and kicked an approaching assassin to the ground with full force.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen assassins had been dealt with by Cui Xi.
The fat nobleman was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected Jiang Yi to detoxify Cui Xi in just seven or eight seconds.
The fat nobleman had no time to be surprised and shouted loudly at the assassins, "Don't let this brat continue to detoxify Jinmen, kill them quickly!"
Now that Cui Xi was detoxified, these assassins were already difficult to deal with. If Jiang Yi were to detoxify Jinmen as well, he would be completely finished. Not only would he be unable to kill Cui Xi and Jinmen, but he would also be captured by Cui Xi today.
Cui Xi was very skilled. The assassins tried to attack Jiang Yi and Jinmen, who were being detoxified, but with Cui Xi around, they had no chance to get close. Before they could even reach them, Cui Xi had already knocked them to the ground.
In just a few seconds, Jinmen was also detoxified by Jiang Yi.
The fat nobleman's face turned extremely ugly. Everything was within his calculations. Cui Xi and Jinmen were not supposed to survive, but with Jiang Yi's appearance, his plan was completely ruined.
Cui Xi and Jinmen had never suffered such humiliation before. They were filled with anger and showed no mercy when they started fighting. Within a minute, all the assassins were eliminated by them.
Finally, only the fat nobleman was left!
The fat nobleman knew he was doomed. He took out a poison pill from his pocket, preparing to commit suicide.
He knew very well that if he fell into Prince Matthew's hands, it would be worse than death. Therefore, it was better to die now.
"It's not that easy to die!"
Jinmen rushed forward, grabbed the fat nobleman's wrist, and knocked the poison pill to the ground. Then, he raised his fist and punched the fat nobleman hard, sending him to the ground.
The fat nobleman's nose started bleeding. Due to his extreme obesity, he struggled to get up from the ground.
"Speak, who is the murderer? Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
Jinmen grabbed the fat nobleman by the collar.
"Even if you kill me, I won't tell you. I will never betray my benefactor!"
The fat nobleman gritted his teeth and said.
"Do you think I don't dare to kill you? I've killed countless nobles, killing one more is no big deal!"
Jinmen's eyes showed a murderous intent.
"Then do it! If you're a man, kill me and show me your skills!"
The fat nobleman deliberately provoked Jinmen, as he was determined to die.
"Jinmen, it's better to take him back for interrogation slowly! Use all the torture devices on him then. No matter how tough his bones are, he will eventually confess honestly. It's useless to question him now; he won't confess easily!"
Cui Xi said to Jinmen.
Cui Xi was worried that Jinmen would directly kill the fat nobleman. Once the fat nobleman died, there would be no way to find the murderer.
Without the murderer, there would be no way to explain to Prince Matthew.
Upon hearing Cui Xi's words, Jinmen calmed down and released his collar.
Cui Xi made a phone call and ordered people to take the fat nobleman away. Then, he and Jinmen searched the fat nobleman's villa, hoping to find some clues. After several hours of turning the villa upside down, they found nothing.
This left Cui Xi and Jinmen very disappointed.
"It's fortunate you came, otherwise, Cui Xi and I would have died at the hands of that scoundrel!"
Jinmen said to Jiang Yi.
"How did you get poisoned?"
Jiang Yi asked.
Jinmen recounted the incident.
Jiang Yi's brow furrowed slightly after hearing this. The poison that Jinmen and Cui Xi had been afflicted with was a very rare one, and no one could cure it except himself.
Anyone who could possess such means was definitely not ordinary.
The fat nobleman was merely a pawn of the murderer. The fat nobleman knew the murderer's identity, and the murderer would surely take further action upon learning that the fat nobleman had been captured.
Just as Jiang Yi thought of this, Cui Xi's phone rang.
After answering the call, Cui Xi's brow furrowed deeply, and his face was filled with anger.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Yi asked.
"The car that was escorting the fat nobleman had a car accident, and the fat nobleman is dead!"
Cui Xi said. "This is too coincidental. Clearly, someone killed the fat nobleman to silence him. Our only clue is gone again. We wasted our efforts just now!"
Jiang Yi was stunned upon hearing this.
He had just speculated that the murderer might make a move, but he hadn't expected the fat nobleman to die in a car accident.
Jinmen was so angry that he started cursing, "If I find out who did this, I will kill him."
Cui Xi was also very angry.
However, the fat nobleman was already dead, and no amount of anger would help. What they needed to do now was to continue investigating until the murderer was caught.
"Now all the clues are broken, and I don't know where to start the investigation. It's really troublesome!" Su Dan Novel Network
Jinmen rubbed his temples.
"I think Jiang Yi definitely has a way!"
Cui Xi said, looking at Jiang Yi, and asked, "To find the murderer, we can only rely on you. Don't worry, we won't steal your credit. We'll tell our godfather that you led us to catch the murderer!"
"That's right. Cui Xi and I just want to find that murderer!"
Jinmen also looked at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi was their only hope.
"In that case, I will gratefully accept your request!"
Jiang Yi said with a slight smile. "Actually, there are still clues. That fat nobleman said that the murderer was his savior. You can start your investigation from the people around the fat nobleman."
"Right!"
Jinmen was overjoyed. "Why didn't I think of that? Even though the fat nobleman is dead, he must have friends. If we investigate properly, we might really find clues."
"Then let's start investigating now! There's no time to delay!"
Cui Xi said.
"En!"
Jinmen nodded.
"You go investigate, I still have something to do!"
Jiang Yi said. "My student, Menasha, is participating in a fencing competition. I have to go and watch!"
"Okay, you go ahead! We'll handle the investigation. I'll notify you immediately when we find a clue!"
Cui Xi nodded.
Jiang Yi said nothing more and drove away.
An hour later, Jiang Yi's car stopped on the street outside the Imperial Plaza. A sea of people filled the plaza, a dense crowd as far as the eye could see.
Fencing competitions were major events in the Eagle Kingdom, so it was not surprising to see so many people.
