"Don't you have any clues yet?" Lang Wu led the people in a hurry and asked the two people guarding the city gate as they passed by.
Seeing the slightly anxious face of the fifth brother, Lang San shook his head: "Not yet."
Found nothing. Instead, they caught several island monks who were fishing in troubled waters and wanted to sneak in.
Looking at Xiao Wu's expression, Lang San also guessed that the other party must have found nothing, so he was so anxious.
It's no wonder that Xiao Wu behaves like this, even he himself is full of restlessness and can't vent it.
Half a day has passed, but there is still no news, whether it is the sword or the person. It's like it disappeared out of thin air, unable to be found.
No matter whether it was Wolf Five who searched from house to house or Wolf Ten who conducted guerrilla investigations, they couldn't find any useful information.
The unusual turmoil among the greedy people, various aristocratic families stirring up trouble, and the forces lurking in the darkness stirred up this pool of dirty water, plunging the entire Lianwu City into a gloomy haze.
People were in panic, and all the high-level and low-level monks did not dare to go out, for fear of becoming the fish in the pond that would be affected, so they stayed at home or in the inn and waited for the storm outside to pass.
I thought it would take a while for the storm to pass, but I didn't expect that just today, at noon on the same day that the chaos occurred, Greedy Wolf posted an announcement.
This is a notice announcing the entire process. Today, fourteen days later, the sword competition that everyone has been waiting for will be held.
Hearing the news, everyone looked at each other in shock, puzzled, how could... Greedy Wolf choose such a day to announce that he would hold a sword competition?
What did Master Qu think?
At this moment, the monks from the aristocratic families were rarely in sync with the thinking spirit of Tanlangmai's disciple. They couldn't tell what Elder Qu had in mind.
Greedy Wolf had mastered such a big event, how could they not receive the news immediately?
No doubt they were all relieved. The fact that the greedy wolf has taken advantage of them has been hanging over their heads like a knife these days, making them upset but unable to move. It would be bad if you are afraid of being punished by the other party and become the chicken that kills the chicken to scare the monkey.
The chaos of Greedy Wolf's Mace gave them a chance to breathe a sigh of relief, and they also had a little leeway to operate the forces under them to continue their activities, instead of being overwhelmed by Greedy Wolf's Mace like they did a few days ago.
As for the accusations made by the greedy disciples that they sent people to sneak into the dungeon to rescue people, it has nothing to do with them at all. I don’t know which kind-hearted person sent someone to stir up trouble, but it helped them a lot. Anyway, it was definitely not them.
It is undeniable that most of them have the idea of disrupting this situation. It is best to take the opportunity to weaken the power of greedy wolves or rescue their own juniors.
But they don't have the power. If they want to be able to force Greedy Wolf's Mace into him, their family's hundreds of families have not first destroyed Greedy Wolf's Mace's lair, why wait until now?
Needless to say, there is no need to describe the darkness and treachery in it. Anyway, Lianwu City will not be able to live in peace for a long time after this.

Mingyue Tower
"I heard that this sword competition will be held soon. I have never heard of such a hasty competition. I don't know what went wrong?" A man who looked quite old said the monk.
"It's strange to say that they picked such a time to hold a big competition. I think they are in a mess right now, and I'm afraid they won't be able to spare the energy to hold this grand event." The slightly younger one said, with a strange look on his face. There seems to be something in the words.
"Chaotic?" the monk who just spoke said curiously, as if he was a little confused about what the other party was saying and didn't know anything about it.
What's the mess? He felt that Lianwu City was quite strict these days, with patrols everywhere. He thought it was because the sword competition was about to be held, so it was so strict. I didn’t expect there to be articles here.
Looking at the expression on the man in front of me, he seemed to know something. He did become somewhat interested.
"...You don't know that Lianwu City has been in chaos for several days, and it must have been more than half a month."
"I heard that at first it was because the law enforcement team arrested a large group of children from aristocratic families and threw them into jail and refused to let them out. Those aristocratic families naturally refused, and many methods were used, but no one was able to get out. At that time, it was inevitable that the aristocratic families would continue If there is trouble, use some of your trump card to strengthen patrols."
"It was almost calmed down, but I didn't expect that just yesterday, it was the day when the sword competition was announced. I heard that there was another big commotion in the Greedy Wolf Mace Residence. I heard that a valuable treasure was lost. Now they are in a hurry to find something in the whole house. He is wanted in the city."
When he mentioned the "heavy treasure", the man's expression was a little confused, and there was a kind of imaginative meaning, as if he remembered something extremely wonderful.
"Ouch! What did you do to hit me? I was kind enough to talk to you about it. Why did you suddenly hit someone when you were so good..." The man was forced out of his thoughts, and he was a little dissatisfied after being beaten in vain.
"Fellow Taoist, what are you thinking about? We are also worried about other people's treasures? We ordinary people can't understand the struggles of the upper class. Don't get into trouble."
"I'm just thinking about it. What can I do? I'm a monk at the third level of qi training, and I can't do anything I want to do." Hearing the other party's earnest persuasion, the man said, somewhat dumbfounded. He didn't know where the other party wanted to go, so he just said that.
"I……"
"Shh!" The monk opposite suddenly stopped smiling and looked a little nervous. He glanced furtively at the next table, then quickly looked back.
The other person followed his gaze and noticed the monk at the next table, and fell silent for an instant.
There were several people sitting at the next table, some big and some small, with good cultivation. They were all wearing the same school uniform, and I couldn't tell which company made it. But it can be seen that this magnanimity must come from a big family or... a big organization.
Maybe he's just greedy for his own advantage. The two people who had just been talking about it were thinking to themselves, and thinking of their own frivolous remarks just now, it was inevitable that they would be a little guessing. This is why they immediately fell silent.
After a while, the two of them quickly paid the bill and ran away without even taking a few bites of the food, as if something was chasing them.
As for the table that was regarded as a savage beast, the people at the table were enjoying the dishes without moving, as if they didn't hear what those people said.
However, their hearts are not as calm as outside.
Xu Liangzhong suddenly stirred up a storm. Is the sword competition about to be held? They just knew.
A few days ago, he sneaked Tang Wen Anti back from Greedy Wolf's Mace. After that, he led a group of juniors and juniors to imprison themselves in the inn, waiting for the limelight to pass.
Unexpectedly, I heard the news about the sword competition just after I came out.
Others don't know, but Xu Liangke knows it very well. That day in Greedy Wolf's Mace, the island owner's confidant Qu Zunzhang made it clear that he would send them out of Fuyun Island after the sword competition. At that time, it was not stated when it would be held, only a time limit was mentioned.
Now, the sword competition will be held in fourteen days, which means that the day for them to leave Fuyun Island is also approaching.
Forget it, this time something like Tang Wen'an happened in the secret realm, their family has no intention of looking for any opportunities, so it would be better to end it as soon as possible.
Besides, they all had eyes these days when they entered Fuyun Island. This floating cloud island is weird and abnormal, with turbulent undercurrents. It is not a place to stay forever.
There's no chance here, it's clearly a muddy water, it would be nice to get out of it head-to-head.
Better leave.
