Chapter 944:

In the grand residence of the Qiantang Sect, there were numerous corpses. Signs of slashing and chopping were evident on the walls, and there were craters from thunder and fire bombs. One building had collapsed halfway, with a large hole in the roof, appearing as though it had been struck by a magical weapon.

As soon as Shisu entered, tears welled up in her eyes. Senior Brother Liu

On the ground, a humanoid rabbit had been bisected at the waist, dead beyond recognition. This must be the Senior Brother she mentioned.

A nearby constable calmly recorded the identity of this corpse.

Shisu walked further into the house, and then the sorrowful part began. As the author dislikes writing about sorrow, lets fast-forward through this section.

Ah, Master, you died so tragically.

Ah, Masters wife, you died so tragically.

Ah, Senior Brother, you died so tragically.

Fast-forward complete! From this repetitive list, a profound sense of misery and despair emanated. Can you feel it?

Shisu cried until she was a tearful mess.

The constable beside her continued to document without any emotional response. It was a common trait to remain composed when facing death that one had no personal connection to.

Robb was the first to return to the periphery, where no one could see, and deactivated his stealth mode behind a street corner. He then casually walked out, coincidentally encountering Shisu as she exited the crime scene. The constable was still in the distance, waving and reminding her, Remember not to go too far and be prepared to be summoned at any time.

Accept my condolences, Robb added casually, offering the standard words of comfort.

Shisu looked up and gave him a glance, You havent left?

Robb smiled, Dont forget Im here for Xuanyuan Black Iron too. With the Qiantang Sect in this situation, how could I leave? Of course, I need to investigate the whereabouts of this piece of Xuanyuan Black Iron.

Shisus current expression must have been quite interesting, but Robb couldnt interpret the emotions on her rabbit-eared face, so he didnt pay much attention. She spoke in a low voice, My sect has been destroyed, and the Xuanyuan Black Iron has been taken by the enemy. I dont even know who took it. If you want to find clues about Xuanyuan Black Iron, following me wont be of any use. You should go and ask those constables. Maybe they can find something.

Oh, really? Robb responded, I dont quite think so. I feel that it might be better for me to follow you.

Upon hearing this, a glint of suspicion flashed in Shisus rabbit-like eyes, the kind of look that implied she was ready to draw her sword and attack. However, she wasnt a member of a ruthless and evil sect. The Qiantang Sect leaned more toward the righteous side, so she forcefully suppressed her urge to draw her sword and lowered her voice, Why do you say that?

Robb said, I have two assumptions right now. Assumption one: the enemy killed everyone in your sect and took Xuanyuan Black Iron. In that case, youll undoubtedly pursue the real culprits. If I follow you, you can help me find the murderer, and naturally, well also find Xuanyuan Black Iron from the culprit. This is much easier than me going alone, considering Im not familiar with the area. Assumption two: even if the enemy killed your fellow sect members, they may not have found Xuanyuan Black Iron. In that case, the only clue lies with you, and by following you, I can still find Xuanyuan Black Iron.

Shisu remained silent.

She had initially considered drawing her sword because she thought Robb had discovered the clue she had obtained. However, after hearing Robbs analysis, she abandoned the idea of drawing her sword. It seemed that this person was just making baseless speculations.

Feeling slightly relieved, she replied in a solemn tone, Youre a boring person! If I understand you correctly, you intend to kill me and seize Xuanyuan Black Iron if I obtain it? Hmph! Dont think your firearm is effective against me. It might work against small fry, but it wont be so easy with me.

Robb chuckled, Miss Shisu, youve got it all wrong. I have no intention of forcibly taking anything. Im a principled person, and I never steal from others. Even when dealing with less-than-honorable individuals, I always engage in thorough negotiations and friendly discussions. I believe in mutually beneficial transactions. Resorting to theft is entirely against the values of the modern era.
