Leng Shiqi suddenly stopped in his tracks. He clutched his chest, and his eyes were filled with a sinister glint.
He took the risk and deliberately let Li Xuanyang plant the Mind Controlling Gu in his body so that he could lurk around them.
This way, he could collect evidence of their crimes and wait for an opportunity to find out what they were going to do next.
As for the Mind Controlling Gu?
This Gu worm was indeed strange. From a certain point of view, it could control a person's mind, and the person being controlled wouldn't know that they had become a puppet.
Unfortunately, no matter how powerful this Gu worm was, it was nothing in front of the rank 7 Nine Leave.
After Leng Shiqi left, Nine Leave had already swallowed most of the Mind Controlling Gu's soul.
In other words, the Mind Controlling Gu was in a half-dead state, but it was still in Leng Shiqi's heart.
This way, Li Xuanyang and Du Hechang could sense the Mind Controlling Gu, but they couldn't really control Leng Shiqi.
At this time, a purple light flew out from between Leng Shiqi's eyebrows and fell into his hand. It was a purple gem-like thing.
Nine Leave said, "Everything that happened just now has been recorded here."
Leng Shiqi was overjoyed. This was one of Nine Leave's secret techniques. It could record all images and sounds for a period of time.
He watched it carefully. This video recorded the incident where Li Xuanyang and Du Hechang self-destructed and smuggled refined iron to sell to Zhu Luguo. This could be considered as solid evidence.
However, this wasn't enough to take down a third rate faction!
It would be best if he could catch them red-handed. That would be a great contribution!
Then Leng Shiqi used the 'fate' skill and teleported back to his room in Dark Thunder Manor. Then he went back to his room through the ground.
The reason why he was so troublesome was because there was another 'Leng Shiqi' in the room.
The other 'Leng Shiqi' was naturally Thousand Face.
Leng Shiqi went out for two purposes. One of them was to use Li Xuanyang to get rid of Xu Zhi.
Only a few people knew that Xu Zhi had left the city. Of course, these people would not leak it out.
His body had also been disposed of. If nothing unexpected happened, no one would know that he was dead for a very long time.
At most, he could only be considered missing.
However, the sudden disappearance of the commander of the city guards, a Spirit Aperture Realm expert, was not a small matter. The City Lord's Mansion would definitely send people to investigate.
Xu Zhi had come to Leng Shiqi a few days ago, but he disappeared not long after. Leng Shiqi was more or less suspicious.
Therefore, he had to have an alibi.
Thus, Leng Shiqi instructed Thousand Face to disguise himself as him after delivering the letter. Furthermore, Thousand Face had to deal with the affairs under the light of the lantern. From time to time, Thousand Face would call for someone to deliver some tea, pretending that he had always been at Dark Thunder Manor.
When Thousand Face saw Leng Shiqi return, he didn't say anything. He just nodded and quietly left.
Leng Shiqi sat down and rested for a while. Too many things had happened in one night, but fortunately, everything was still under his control.
Now, he needed to cooperate with Du Hechang to collect large amounts of fine iron.
When the sun rose, Leng Shiqi called the three Dark Thunder Envoys to the meeting hall.
Qiao Qian, Qiu Cheng, and Pang Yuan bowed, "Greetings, sir."
Qiao Qian and Qiu Cheng were a bit confused. It was still early in the morning, yet Leng Shiqi had called them over. Was there something urgent?
Unexpectedly, Leng Shiqi opened his mouth and said, "From today onwards, withdraw all surveillance of the Du Clan."
Hm?!
This time, they were not confused, but shocked. Two days ago, he said that he would constantly monitor the Du Clan's every move. Now, he was suddenly giving up?
However, they didn't ask any questions. They all nodded in agreement.
Leng Shiqi asked, "I mentioned last time. Are there people in the surrounding cities transporting fine iron?"
Qiu Cheng was in charge of intelligence, so he knew the situation in the other cities the best. He replied, "Sir, I didn't know before investigating. After investigating, there were actually many clans secretly transporting fine iron!
However, this humble one is curious. Fine iron itself isn't very profitable, and the Imperial Court has repeatedly forbidden private sales. Why are they still doing this? "
Leng Shiqi said, "Pass down the order. Have the subordinates continue to monitor and collect evidence, but don't do anything.
If possible, help them secretly transport fine iron! "
Qiu Cheng's doubts deepened, but he seemed to feel that this matter wasn't simple.
Qiao Qian's body trembled slightly. An idea appeared in his mind. He muttered, "Casting a long line to catch a big fish."
Leng Shiqi heard this and looked at Qiao Qian with praise.
Qiu Cheng also realized that there were people secretly transporting fine iron in the surrounding cities. This couldn't be a coincidence!
But why would they do this?
Where did the fine iron go in the end?
There must be a conspiracy behind this!
Catching a few clans secretly transporting fine iron wouldn't be much of a merit. If they could catch a bunch of the masterminds, it would be a great merit!
Qiu Cheng hated that he wasn't as smart as Qiao Qian.
Leng Shiqi asked again, "In the past, what should we do if we encounter trouble that we can't solve?"
A Dark Thunder Manor like Lan Qi City's was usually led by a Spirit Aperture Realm Supervisor, a few Spirit Pulse Realm Dark Thunder Envoys, and dozens of Spirit Transformation Realm Dark Thunder Guards.
This kind of strength was equivalent to 50% of a third-rate sect. It wasn't weak.
However, Leng Shiqi was dealing with a third-rate sect!
He definitely wasn't a match for Li Xuanyang, so how could he take down the Profound Yang Sect?
Qiu Cheng was the most senior of the three. He didn't guess Leng Shiqi's intention just now, so he hurriedly said, "Sir, we did encounter this kind of situation before. Generally speaking, we can directly report it to Sir Duan Chun, who is in charge of the North County."
Leng Shiqi tapped his fingers, "If we report it to Sir Duan Chun, we won't get much credit. Is there any other way?"
"This …" Qiu Cheng hesitated and said, "It's not that there is no other way.
Our Dark Thunder Guards have more power. Sir, you can actually mobilize some city guards.
In addition, our Discipline Commission in the North County is also within the scope of mobilization.
However, the rules are the rules, but it's hard to say whether they will contribute or not. "
"City Guards, Discipline Commission."
Leng Shiqi muttered these two names. He was in urgent need of a large number of people now, but the Discipline Commission was the first to be ruled out by him.
The Discipline Commission was different from the Dark Thunder Guards. There was only one branch of the Discipline Commission in the entire North County. There were several Spirit Astral Realm experts in the branch, which deterred the spirit cultivation sects in the North County.
As a Spirit Pulse Stage Supervisor, the chances of him being able to recruit people were very slim. Thus, he could only set his sights on the city guards!
