After a moment, he scanned his surroundings and suddenly reacted, exclaiming: “Where have you taken our tribe members!”
Lou Yingbai recalled Xia Xianning’s previous words: “It seems Xianning is right. You are indeed the Chiqiong tribe, hiding under the banner of Miyuan Sect, coming to cause trouble at my Changliu Sect. What are you thinking?
Lou Yingbai explained to Lu Heng: “Mie Meng Hill is isolated from the outside world and rarely interacts with external parties. The people of the Chiqiong tribe probably haven’t even heard of the word ‘mobile phone’. Additionally, the ‘tribal chief’s wife’ they mentioned is likely the wife of the tribal chief, Sunda. In these societies, the chief is revered like a god, with deep reverence.”
Lu Heng said: “It seems they won’t tell the truth. Senior Brother Lou, Junior Brother Xia, do either of you have any thoughts?”
His meaning was actually asking whether the special investigation unit would intervene. However, the Chiqiong were not part of the human race, and some members of the Miyuan Sect were present, who had come for private sect disputes. Without any casualties, government departments would not interfere in matters between practitioners.
Xia Xianning said: “We’ll follow your lead.”
Lu Heng nodded and smiled at Qiao Guanglan: “Sect Master’s wife… oh, Sect Master’s husband, do you have any insights to share?”
Master Ji, originally from the Miyuan Sect, colluded with the Chiqiong tribe for benefits. Seeing everything now, he couldn’t help but regret it.
While they were discussing, he sidled up and grabbed Qiao Guanglan’s sleeve, whispering: “Young Sect Master, the Yingmen is affiliated with the Miyuan Sect, so I’m half your subordinate. Please intercede with Sect Master Lu on my behalf! Our Buddhist sect has been disgraced by the Taoist sect, and it’s embarrassing!”
His words were shameless. Qiao Guanglan simply flung him off, succinctly saying: “Scram. Where were you earlier?”
Lu Heng subtly furrowed his brow, pulling Qiao Guanglan close, calmly saying: “I don’t care about sects or schools. I only know that those who attack our Changliu Sect are enemies. Lin Xing, lock all these people up. Starting tomorrow at 4 AM, make them work until they repair everything damaged on the mountain, then they can leave.”
Lin Xing was somewhat reluctant, hesitating: “This… do we also have to feed them?”
