Chapter 1747: The Head of the He Family

o said with a sullen face: "That's right, my own man wasn't protected by you, what does it have to do with you""I..."Xie An's team was speechless, with nothing to say. The other party truly didn't nee..."I think so too."

Luo Yudie nodded. She had carefully observed Ye Bufan's cultivation level before, and it was indeed only at the mid-Golden Core stage.

Such a person wouldn't be able to fight against the forces He Changsheng brought, let alone be unilaterally slaughtered like this.

“In that case, his teacher is quite remarkable. First and foremost, he's a master alchemist capable of refining top-tier pills. On the other hand, he's also an incredibly powerful warrior.”

"Speaking of which, she picked up the golden bullet on the table again. "This thing isn't sharp or special in any way. To kill someone from a distance with it unseen, that would take incredible cultivation."

"Nascent Soul Stage Core Formation Stage, or even stronger"

Fu Haishan shook his head: "This subordinate doesn't know either, only that it is unfathomable."

Luo Yudie said: "These things don't matter anymore. What's important is that we know they have a super powerful teacher who is not only proficient in alchemy but also has deep martial arts cultivation."

Fu Haishan said, "No wonder Mr. Ye is so confident. With such a powerful backer, he doesn't need to take any notice of the pathetic He family."

"That's right, such a powerful person is worthy of our respect." Luo Yudie said, "Remember this from now on, if you encounter Mr. Ye again, be sure to make friends with him as much as possible. This will only benefit our Ju Bao Ge and do us no harm."

Fu Haishan respectfully nodded. "Understood, Master!"

Outside the Treasure Pavilion, news of He Changsheng's murder had somehow reached the He family. At this moment, a large number of powerful figures arrived here, surrounding the scene.

Seeing the tragic scene, his most beloved son's head had been smashed in, Patriarch He Tiandao was furious.

"Damn it, find out what the hell is going on and who's behind this! Who dares to be an enemy of the He family"

Seeing the master's anger, everyone present fell silent, not daring to make a sound.

At that moment, He Tianda's eldest son, He Changqing, walked over with a middle-aged man.

"Father, this man says he knows who harmed my younger brother."

He Tian'da glared at him with icy eyes. "Tell me, who did it"

"Master, I witnessed the whole process of how Young Master He was killed. Please listen to me as I tell you..."

This man's name is Li Youcai. He had just participated in an auction before this and witnessed the entire process of He Changsheng being killed with his own eyes.

There were many people present at the time, and everyone else kept their distance. Only he dared to take the risk and try to climb onto the big tree of the He family for his own benefit.

Li Youcai recounted the events from beginning to end, finally saying, "Master of the House, if I'm not mistaken, it was that masked boy who made the move."

"Are you sure what you're saying is true"

Li Youcai quickly said, "Master Head of the Family, how could I deceive you At the auction house that day, the boy kept finding trouble with Eldest Young Master He. This matter must be his doing."

As for the process of how the young master was later murdered, I witnessed it with my own eyes and there would be no mistake.

"Did you see my son die with your own eyes"

Coming face to face with He Tian'da's murderous gaze, Li Youcai jumped in fright and said in terror, "Master Head, I really saw it with my own eyes, I didn't lie to you!"

"This isn't about whether it was a scam or not, why didn't you help my son when you saw him die with your own eyes Why didn't you die in his place"

"As He Tiandao uttered those words, a murderous aura suddenly erupted from his body."

"Uh..."

Li Youcai was completely dumbfounded. He had originally thought that by taking this opportunity, he could gain the gratitude of the He family and cling to their powerful branch, hoping to rise to success, but he never expected He Tian to have such an attitude.

"Master, I...I..."

He babbled for a long time, but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

At that moment, a He family member rushed over, holding several golden bullet casings in their hand.

"Master, we found these things at the scene. They are likely related to young master's death."

He Tian reached out, took the bullet casing and looked it over. Then he turned back to a black-robed old man.

"Grand Elder, this thing looks rather suspicious, doesn't it"

That old man in black robes was named Su Boya, the great elder of the He family. He picked up a bullet and weighed it, then shook his head.

I think it shouldn't be a problem. Even if the other party is skilled with hidden weapons, they wouldn't use something so clumsy.

He Tiandao nodded, plucked a golden bullet with his finger, and shot it directly at Li Youcai.

With a mere *pop*, the bullet plunged directly into his brow, leaving a bloody hole in his forehead.

"Ah!"

Li Youcai's eyes widened in an instant, his heart filled with unwillingness. He had originally been dreaming of soaring to great heights, but he never expected to die like this.

He Tian Da showed complete disregard for his death, and then said: "See Even with my full effort, this thing can only pierce his head, but it's still not enough to achieve a headshot effect."

So I agree with the Great Elder's statement, this thing must be what they used to mislead us, and it has nothing to do with the deaths of Changsheng and the others.

Su Bei nodded: "The patriarch is right. With our cultivation at the peak of Nascent Soul, this thing can only hurt people within 50 meters. It's definitely useless from too far away."

Furthermore, as a cultivator, no one would choose to use such a thing as a weapon. It's simply not worth the risk.

Then, He's family members checked the entire scene, but besides those bullets, they didn't find any other useful clues.

He Changqing said: "Father, based on the current scene, we can't find anything useful. What should we do next"

"According to Li Youcai, this matter is very likely the work of that masked man."

He Tiandao said, "Anyone who can enter the Jubao Pavilion and participate in the auction has to get an identity badge, so they must know who this person is over there."

He Changqing's eyes lit up: "So, we can just go to Ju Bao Pavilion and get the person."

He Tiandao nodded. "We'll go right now, but remember, don't get into any conflicts with them."

Although the death of He Changsheng enraged him, as the head of the He family, he still had a basic sense of rationality. He knew that a place like Ju Bao Pavilion could not be forced upon.

He Tian, accompanied by He Changqing and Su Beiyaya, entered the Treasure Pavilion together. After reporting, they went to the top floor to meet Luo Yudi.

In the room, Luo Yudie smiled brightly at the three people: "Master He, I haven't seen you here for a long time, welcome."

"Lord Luoge, I apologize for the disturbance."

Fu Haishan invited the three guests to sit down, then had tea served. Afterwards, he retreated to stand beside Luo Yudie.

He Tian Da wasn't in the mood for pleasantries, and got straight to the point: "Lord Luo, I have a favor to ask of you today."

"Master He, please speak. As long as this humble woman can do it, she will certainly do her best."

Luo Yudie still smiled brightly, her attitude remained good.

He Tiandao said, "Lord Luoge, my son was just murdered by thieves at the gate of Jubao Pavilion. I presume you are already aware"li walked through the air with a roar, and the pressure of a great consummation instantly swept across the entire imperial city."You old geezer, shut your mouth!"The Shadowy Man wasn't intimidated by...
