"Yes, it's this woman. Does Minister Sang know this woman?"
Fang Ping asked in surprise.
"Yes. Her name is Wu Zhenzhu. She's an independent Tier 5 Demon Hunter. Occasionally, she would take on some demon-hunting missions from the Demon Countermeasure Department.
"In recent years, there have been several cases where members of the Demon Countermeasure Department were attacked and killed by demonic beasts, but in the end, they were unable to find the culprit."
Sang Hua nodded.
"The Demon Countermeasure Department once suspected that the demonic beasts were created by an Awakened with their ability, so they investigated the related ability.
"One of the suspects was Wu Zhenzhu, but because there was no evidence, they could only let it go. This time, we finally have evidence. After returning, I will immediately issue a warrant."
The two talked for a long time, but in the end, Fang Ping was unable to inquire about the person or force behind Wu Zhenzhu.
Yan Xue and Wu Zhenzhu obviously didn't know each other, so the possibility of Wu Zhenzhu having a grudge with Yan Xue was almost zero. There must be someone behind Wu Zhenzhu.
He faintly felt that Sang Hua should know something, but she seemed to have some misgivings, so she didn't say anything.
After saying goodbye to Sang Hua, Fang Ping teleported and disappeared with Yan Xue.
Now that Yan Xue was injured, she couldn't continue with the missions she had accepted. Moreover, now that Yan Xue was being targeted, for the sake of her safety, he couldn't let Yan Xue continue with the missions.
Bang!
Zuo Family's production base. Wu Zhenzhu and the locust monster suddenly appeared and fell to the ground. The locust monster couldn't maintain its body and collapsed, while Wu Zhenzhu was like a dehydrated fish, breathing with difficulty.
The commotion alarmed the Awakened on duty in the production base. After a while, the Awakened on duty from all over the production base rushed over.
The leader of the group was a man in his thirties. After arriving, he immediately surrounded Wu Zhenzhu with his companions.
"Who are you?"
"Contact … Zuo Wei. He knows … who I am."
Wu Zhenzhu said in a hoarse voice.
Although she was a freelance Demon Hunter to the outside world, in fact, she had secretly become a consecrator of the Zuo family.
If possible, she didn't want to appear in the Zuo Family's production base so blatantly. But now that she was seriously injured, she couldn't survive in the wild. She could only seek help from the Zuo Family's production base.
"You know Zuo Wei?
Take her to the infirmary. "
As the son of a writer, the man naturally recognized Zuo Wei. He signaled his companion to bring Wu Zhenzhu to the infirmary while he made a call to Zuo Wei.
A few hours later, Zuo Wei rushed to the production base and saw Wu Zhenzhu lying in the infirmary.
"Is this the foolproof plan you promised me?"
Zuowei glared at Wu Zhenzhu, his eyes spitting fire.
Before coming, he had already learned from the Zuo family's influence in the Monster Countermeasure Department that the assassination attempt on Yan Xue had failed.
Assassinating Yan Xue to make up for his mistakes was his only chance to turn the tables. But he didn't expect that a Fifth-Order hunter assassinating a Fourth-Order hunter, which should have been a sure thing, would fail.
"Can you blame me? Didn't your intelligence say that Fang Ping wasn't in the base city? How did he get here so quickly?"
Wu Zhenzhu, who had already taken a healing potion and bandaged her wounds, was lying on the bed and snorted coldly.
Thinking of what happened not long ago, she couldn't help but feel a trace of fear. Fang Ping's strength was too terrifying. Facing him, she even felt that she was facing a Morning Star.
A Rank 5 Magical Beast was crushed in his hands without even the slightest strength to struggle.
If not for the tattoo on her body, which was a Spatial Magical Beast with the ability to teleport, she would have died without a doubt.
"He only returned to the base city this morning. Who knows how he could have returned at this time."
"Besides, it took several minutes from the time Yan Xue's team was attacked to the time the rescue team arrived. You can't even deal with a Rank 4 Awakened in such a long time?"
Zuowei questioned.
"It's not like you don't know that guy isn't an ordinary Rank 4 Awakened. Anyone who can get on the list is at the top of the Rank 4 Awakened. Even if he manipulates a Rank 5 Magical Beast, it would still take some effort to kill him."
Wu Zhenzhu argued and then asked with some worry.
"What's the situation now? What's the attitude of the Monster Countermeasure Division regarding this assassination?"
Zuowei frowned slightly.
"The Monster Countermeasure Division has issued a warrant for your arrest. You should stay in the production base and recuperate. Don't go anywhere without permission."
"What, I'm wanted? Can't the Zuo family think of a way to cancel the warrant?"
Wu Zhenzhu's expression changed. Being wanted by a large base city like Yinchuan Base City was no joke. Once you were wanted, you would become a wanted target not only in Yinchuan Base City, but also in other production bases.
"There's no other way. You assassinated Rank 27 on the list and your identity was exposed. Even if the Zuo family wants to cancel the warrant, it'll be difficult."
Zuowei shook his head.
"Damn it, do I have to stay in the wilderness for the rest of my life?
No, the Zuo family must cancel the warrant for my arrest. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite. "
The woman said angrily.
"Are you threatening the Zuo family?
If you really do that, it won't be good for you or the Zuo family. I advise you to give up the idea. "
Zuowei first warned her coldly, then comforted her.
"Although it's difficult to cancel the warrant, it's not impossible. However, it requires careful planning."
"First of all, you have to have enough merits and then use them to exchange for amnesty. The Zuo family is already helping you, but it's certainly not something that can be done in a short time."
"Knowing that you were injured, Lord Zuo Gaofeng specially asked me to bring you a bottle of this. This is a special potion that's better than ordinary healing potions. It's very good for your recovery."
Zuowei took out a small brown bottle. Half of the bottle was filled with a clear liquid. The bottle was engraved with exquisite patterns and the words "Special Healing Potion".
From the appearance, it seemed to be a bottle of recovery potion that was better than ordinary healing potions. However, when Zuowei took out the bottle, there was a trace of imperceptible ruthlessness in his eyes.
In fact, he had another purpose this time, and that was to turn Wu Zhenzhu into a dead man who couldn't speak.
Wu Zhenzhu was wanted by the Demon Countermeasure Department. If he was caught, it was likely that the Zuo family would be exposed. Therefore, the best way was to turn Wu Zhenzhu into a dead man.
"Thank Lord Zuo Gaofeng for me."
Wu Zhenzhu happily took the "Special Healing Potion", but the next moment, he suddenly burst out.
He punched Zuowei with the strength of a fifth-order hunter. Zuowei's body flew out uncontrollably and crashed through the wall.
