"Lord Ling Xu, my father has gone missing! I've searched the entire Yuzhang City, but I couldn't find him! In the end, I asked the headquarters of the Sword Committee, and they told me that my father's life signal has already stopped responding! They said that my father is dead! Is this true?" Third Young Master Shi asked anxiously.
Saying this, Sword Immortal Ling Xu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Actually, Third Young Master Shi had already asked him about Shi Jueyuan a few days ago, but he was deceived by Sword Immortal Ling Xu.
Third Young Master Shi saw that he was being thwarted by Sword Immortal Ling Xu, so he could only ask the Sword Committee Headquarters about Shi Jueyuan.
After all, Shi Jueyuan was the head of the Emperor Sword Family. His life and death was something that the Sword Committee Headquarters had to pay attention to. Therefore, the Sword Committee Headquarters would take the initiative to investigate Shi Jueyuan's situation. This way, Sword Immortal Ling Xu couldn't deceive them.
Previously, Sword Immortal Ling Xu kept the news of Shi Jueyuan's death in Yuzhang City, and the information was also kept in Yuzhang City. He didn't report it to the Sword Committee Headquarters.
However, the Sword Committee Headquarters had the highest authority in the human world. They had the right to access all the information stored in Yuzhang City's highest level AI system. Sword Immortal Ling Xu didn't have the right or ability to stop them. The news of Shi Jueyuan's death could no longer be hidden.
"Since the Sword Committee Headquarters said that your father's personal terminal has lost its signal, then your father's personal terminal has really lost its signal. He's probably dead," Sword Immortal Ling Xu said calmly.
"But that's not what you told me a few days ago. Didn't you tell my father that he only went missing in the battle with Yuan Kou?
Didn't you tell me that he might still be alive? "Third Young Master Shi couldn't suppress his emotions and roared.
"Watch your tone, Shi Tianshou!"
Sword Immortal Ling Xu slammed the table a few times in dissatisfaction. "You're now facing the chairman of the Yuzhang City Sword Committee, a mighty Immortal Sword Tier sword wielder. As an Ancient Sword Tier sword wielder, have you forgotten the etiquette between superiors and subordinates?" he scolded with a look of disgust.
"You … I …" Shi Tianshou was Third Young Master Shi's real name. When he heard Sword Immortal Ling Xu say his name out loud, Third Young Master Shi knew that things were a little different from what he had expected. Yuzhang City was no longer the Yuzhang City of a few days ago.
"My apologies, Lord Ling Xu, I was rude."
Third Young Master Shi lowered his head. "As a child who has lost his father, I want to know how his current condition is.
How did he die? "
"Didn't you already go to the Sword Committee to ask?
Didn't they tell you how your father died?
Is there a need to ask me? "Sword Immortal Ling Xu looked at Third Young Master Shi with a teasing expression.
"It's that woman … it's that beautiful bitch who killed my father, isn't it?!" Third Young Master Shi's face turned hideous. "Why?
You already knew that my father died in the hands of that bitch. Why didn't you tell me?
Why didn't he arrest her right away?
Avenge my father? "
"You better watch your mouth."
Sword Immortal Ling Xu scolded again, "She is the savior of Yuzhang City. If it weren't for her, everyone in Yuzhang City, including you, would have died. She is not only your savior, but also the savior of the entire Yuzhang City. You must make this clear to me, or I will definitely make you bear the corresponding consequences!"
"Bah!
I don't need her to save me. "
The third young master of the Shi family spat. "Our family has already packed up everything, and there are several spirit sword bearers protecting us. We can hide in Yanjing City anytime, anywhere. We don't need that bitch to save us."
"Shameless scum!"
Hearing Third Young Master Shi blatantly say that his family had already packed everything, and was even preparing to recruit Spirit Sword level sword bearers to protect them as they escaped, Sword Immortal Ling Xu could no longer contain his anger. He directly slapped Third Young Master Shi across the face. Third Young Master Shi's entire body spun 360 degrees in the air, and finally fell straight to the ground with a crisp thud.
"This is the reason why Miss Xuanyuan killed your father. Based on your father's cowardly attitude of wanting to abandon the lives of 40 million people in Yuzhang City, even if Miss Xuanyuan didn't do anything, I, Sword Immortal Ling Xu, would have killed him and gotten rid of this scum," Sword Immortal Ling Xu said in a powerful voice.
"Heh!
You finally admitted that you conspired with that bitch to kill my father. You are also one of the murderers! "Third Young Master Shi clutched his face that was swollen like a piece of bread.
"Whatever you say!" Sword Immortal Ling Xu had a look of disdain on his face. Who cared about such things?
"Hmph!
Let me tell you, Sword Immortal Ling Xu, I've already recorded our entire conversation today. I'm going to share this conversation with all the Spirit Sword Rank sword bearers and have them uphold justice for my father! "the Third Young Master of the Shi Family yelled.
"Justice?" Sword Immortal Ling Xu seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. "You actually have the face to talk about justice with me?
Then go ahead!
Go tell all the Spirit Sword level sword bearers what you said to me. Let's see whose side justice they're on! "
"I'll send it to them right now!"
Third Young Master Shi panicked. Without another word, he took out his personal terminal and began to send messages to all the Spirit Sword level sword bearers stored in his personal terminal.
But what happened next shocked Third Young Master Shi. When he clicked to send the message, his personal terminal didn't give him the usual notification that the message had been delivered. Instead, it told him this.
"Sorry!
You're not the other party's friend and cannot send a message!
"Why?
Why aren't we friends anymore?
We were just eating together a few days ago! "Seeing this notification, Third Young Master Shi was completely enraged. He couldn't accept this result at all.
On the other hand, Sword Immortal Ling Xu was well aware of this result.
In reality, immediately after the battle, Sword Immortal Ling Xu had called for a meeting with all the Spirit Sword level sword bearers.
As for the specific content of the meeting, no one revealed it. But the first thing these Spirit Sword level sword bearers did after the meeting was to delete Third Young Master Shi's friend list.
After all, Shi Jueyuan was already dead. These Spirit Sword level sword bearers knew very well what kind of person Third Young Master Shi was. He was someone who couldn't do anything right. Who would be willing to suck up to him? They just hoped that he wouldn't spread the fire to them.
"Dong!"
Right at this moment, Sword Immortal Ling Xu's personal terminal suddenly emitted a crisp and pleasant sound. Sword Immortal Ling Xu closed his eyes and looked at this message. A bitter smile appeared on his face.
"The arrest warrant has been issued. Take a look!"
Sword Immortal Ling Xu projected this message in the air. Third Young Master Shi raised his head and saw that this was a notification letter returned from the Sword Committee Headquarters.
[Yuzhang City Sword Committee,
We have received your notification regarding the death of Spirit Sword level sword bearer Shi Jueyuan. After verification, Shi Jueyuan did die at the hands of a female sword bearer. However, because the female sword bearer's personal terminal has been destroyed and her DNA information cannot be collected, no one matching the appearance of all the female sword bearers can be found. The criminal is temporarily determined to be an unknown female.
At the same time, regarding the criminal named Gu Xuanyuan that you reported, after comparison with the system's database, there is no female sword bearer named Gu Xuanyuan in the database. This criminal is actually out of all the database, and the Sword Committee Headquarters is unable to confirm her detailed identity.
However, the Sword Committee Headquarters will not tolerate any kind of fratricide. After a meeting of the Sword Committee Headquarters, this criminal has been named Gu Xuanyuan. At the same time, due to the highest level arrest warrant for the eight cities that have been issued globally, any sword bearer who discovers the criminal Gu Xuanyuan must immediately report it to their respective Sword Committee … If the criminal is too strong, it is not recommended that normal sword bearers arrest her. The arrest shall be carried out by the Discipline Committee of each base.
December 12th, 3011.
World Sword Bearers Joint Committee Conference]
"This is …" Third Young Master Shi looked at the document and didn't know what to say.
"Looks like the Sword Committee Headquarters reacted very quickly!
I reported it to them yesterday, and they sent me a reply today. Sure enough, the death of an old man from the Emperor Sword Family is a big deal! "
Sword Immortal Ling Xu showed this reply to Third Young Master Shi to tell him that he, Sword Immortal Ling Xu, did not make any mistakes in the procedure, and that he shouldn't say anything more.
"Then when does Sword Immortal Ling Xu plan to send people to arrest this criminal?" Third Young Master Shi raised his head and asked.
"Let's talk about this later … Right now there is a lot of reconstruction work to be done in Yuzhang City, and Miss Gu Xuanyuan's strength is not weaker than mine. How can normal sword bearers catch her? Sending her would just be a waste of time.
In a few months, when I'm free, I'll look for her myself and see if I can find Miss Gu Xuanyuan! "
Sword Immortal Ling Xu waved his hand. "Alright, you can go now. To be honest, I don't really want to see you again."
"You …" The veins on Third Young Master Shi's face instantly bulged. Even an idiot could tell that Sword Immortal Ling Xu was trying to brush him off. It would take a few more months before he could relax. Let's see if everyone has already forgotten about this matter after a few months.
Thinking back to what Sword Immortal Ling Xu had just said, Sword Immortal Ling Xu didn't say that he was going to capture Gu Xuanyuan, he only said that he was going to look for her … The meaning behind this was even more worth pondering.
However, there was nothing wrong with Sword Immortal Ling Xu's words. There were indeed a lot of things to be done in Yuzhang City, and now was not the time for Sword Immortal Ling Xu to leave Yuzhang City. Third Young Master Shi had nothing to criticize Sword Immortal Ling Xu for.
In the end, Third Young Master Shi could only clench his fists and silently leave Sword Immortal Ling Xu's office. Only now did he fully understand what his father's death meant to him.
…
"Come here for a moment!"
After Third Young Master Shi left, Sword Immortal Ling Xu ordered a man in a suit and leather shoes to come in. Then, he pulled out a large pile of photos from his dimensional space and handed them to this man.
When this man saw the contents of these photos, he couldn't help but tremble. His face turned bright red … These photos were all of beautiful young girls whose bodies had been modified to look like animals. Their behavior was also completely similar to that of animals.
And in the photos, Third Young Master Shi was smiling in an exceptionally happy and perverted manner.
"Investigate all of this for me!" Sword Immortal Ling Xu said indifferently.
"Yes!" the man replied.
