Chapter 567
Yuan Wenhao was dead. When Ye Xiu received a call from Hong Hu, he rushed back to Shudu overnight, and even returned to Ye's manor.
When he arrived at Wuxiang Villa, Yuan Wenhao had already turned into a cold corpse.
There was a black dagger in his heart.
It was this dagger that took his life.
"What the hell is going on?" Ye Xiu asked in a hoarse voice when he looked at Yuan Wenhao's pale face.
He and Yuan Wenhao are not in deep feelings, but Yuan Wenhao was the one he chose to rule the underground world of Shudu, and now he is slaughtered alive.
Who has such ability in the entire Shu capital?
After all, Yuan Wenhao is also a warrior who has cultivated internal strength, and he is surrounded by many experts to protect him. How could he be killed by someone in this way?
Nalanchu, Apu and Hong Hu stood aside.
Hearing Ye Xiu's angry rebuke, Nalan Chu and A Pu raised their heads one after another, and first told Ye Xiu what happened, but when they thought that Yuan Wenhao was killed under their noses, they couldn't say anything.
Guilt, self-blame, grief, anger, despair...
All kinds of emotions filled their bodies.
"Mr. Ye, that's it..." Finally, Hong Hu sighed and told the story.
The Lantern Festival will be in a few days. A week-long lantern festival will be held in Taiping County, a southern suburb of Shudu, every year. Yuan Wenhao has been busy with work, and only in these few days, he took his daughter Yuan Xiaoyuan to Taiping County to enjoy the lantern festival.
Nalanchu, Apu, and many masters from Wuxiangmen accompanied him, but at the lively lantern festival, an ordinary man walked through Nalanchu like a ghost, and Apu and others secretly arranged a protective circle and came to Yuan Wenhao.
When Nalan Chu, A Pu and others reacted, the man had already stabbed Yuan Wenhao's heart, and the blood was squirting into Yuan Wenhao's face, and the girl fainted on the spot.
Nalanchu, Apu and others wanted to chase after him, but the man raised the girl and threw it at them. When they caught the girl, the killer had disappeared without a trace.
It seemed as if it had never appeared before, and Yuan Wenhao was killed on the spot and was sent back overnight!
After listening to Hong Hu's story, Ye Xiu's brows frowned tightly.
A Pu and Nalan Chu are now masters with great internal strength. With the protection of others, it is difficult to kill Yuan Wenhao.
In particular, Yuan Wenhao is still a warrior himself.
Those who can do this are at least the peak of internal strength, or even masters who enter the innate realm.
But why did a great master in the innate realm kill Yuan Wenhao with such means?
Vengeance?
Not very similar!
Yuan Wenhao is the leader of Wuxiang Sect. If he really had an enemy in the innate realm, he would have been here openly. How could he still have to be so useless? He ran to Taiping County, dozens of kilometers away, to start?
Is it to hide something?
Also, how did the killer know that Yuan Wenhao went to Taiping County?
"How many people know about Yuan Wenhao going to visit the lantern festival in advance?" Ye Xiu pondered for a moment and looked at the three of them.
This time, Hong Hu didn't speak.
Nalan Chu and A Pu were stunned for a moment. Is Mr. Ye doubting something?
"Before leaving, no one except me and A Pu, knew the itinerary of the sect leader..." However, Nalan Chu still spoke honestly.
"How many people have you been there in total? After arriving, those people left your sight?" Ye Xiu continued to speak.
A Pu and Nalan Chu, are Yuan Wenhao's brothers who live and die together. Even when facing the coercion of masters such as Leng Wufeng and Lin Shanhai, they did not choose to compromise, but faced it with Yuan Wenhao, which was enough to prove their loyalty.
But no matter how powerful the killer is, it is impossible to predict the future. He rushed to the lantern club in advance to ambush. Someone must have notified the killer.
"There are thirty-six people in total. As for leaving our sight?" Suddenly, Nalanchu and Apu's faces changed at the same time.
"Come..." Nalan Chu didn't bother to answer Ye Xiu's question, turned around and shouted outside.
Immediately, a brother from Wuxiangmen rushed in.
"Go and call Zhang Xuehu..." Nalan Chu ordered.
A moment later, the man from the Wuxiangmen hurried back, bringing even more shocking news that Zhang Xuehu was missing.
In other words, Zhang Xuehu didn't return with them at all!
A Pu, Nalan Chu's face became as ugly as it was.
After Yuan Wenhao was attacked at the Lantern Festival, it caused chaos. They wanted to send Yuan Wenhao to the hospital, but Yuan Wenhao was already killed on the spot. After pursuing the murderer, they rushed over immediately. However, everyone's heart was filled with sadness, and no one noticed Zhang Xuehu's disappearance.
It was not until Ye Xiu mentioned that he remembered this person.
The first reason why the two of them thought of this person was that this person was the only person who had left their sight at the lantern festival. He had just arrived at the lantern festival site and went to the bathroom.
Those who were selected as Yuan Wenhao's guards by Nalanchu and A Pu were absolutely loyal to Yuan Wenhao. Because of this, none of them cared about it.
Who doesn’t have a three-rush?
But who would have thought that this young man who was just a wanderer back then was discovered and promoted by Yuan Wenhao, would betray Yuan Wenhao.
"This beast..." After thinking it through, Abu suddenly punched the wall, and the huge force made the wall make a dull "bang" sound.
Ah Pu's fist even scratched the skin! Blood flowed!
But such pain is no more than the pain in the heart.
"Go and pass me the order. Once Zhang Xuehu's whereabouts are discovered, arrest him immediately!" Nalan Chu ordered directly.
The member of Wuxiangmen responded and turned around and retreated.
In Yuan Wenhao's room, there were only four people, Ye Xiu.
"Mr. Ye..." Nalan Chu looked at Ye Xiu.
This matter is obviously not that simple, but who arranged all this behind the scenes?
"I have no idea yet. Let's find that guy first!" Ye Xiu shook his head. This matter was full of strangeness.
"Yeah!" Nalan Chu nodded vigorously.
"In addition, Lao Yuan's funeral cannot be delayed. Just find someone to be buried in peace!" Ye Xiu sighed softly.
A Pu and Nalan Chu both nodded, but when they thought of the man who led him and others to carry forward the Wuxiangmen, leaving like this, their eyes turned red.
"Jie Ai, brother..." Hong Hu also sighed and patted the two of them on the shoulders.
Ye Xiu didn't say anything more. With a heavy heart, he left Wuxiang Villa and returned directly to the community where he lived.
He vaguely felt that a storm was brewing!
