Chapter 49: Three major secular institutions

Chapter 49: Three major secular institutions

Chuanjiang City.

The original Wanfu Residence was now a charred ruin.

One after another, corpses exuding a burning stench were carried out by the police, lined up not far outside the courtyard, and covered with white cloths.

A large group of onlookers watched this miserable scene from a distance and talked about it.

"Half a month ago, Wanfu was still a prominent figure in the city. In the blink of an eye, Wan's gang leader was killed, and Wanfu was reduced to the situation where his family was wiped out."Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

The two young masters of the Wan family are among this pile of corpses. The Wan family has been completely wiped out. It is said that the only one who escaped was Mrs. Wan, whose whereabouts are unknown.

Do you think it was Daluo Sect who did it?

I heard that Gang Leader Wan was killed because he robbed the Hongyan Mine and killed three Daluo Sect residents before he was found out.

"It's possible that the Da Luo Sect felt that just killing Wan Gang Leader was not enough to vent his anger, so he silenced Wan Fu to deter those with bad intentions."

Thats impossible to say.

"I don't think so. Wanfu has many enemies. In the past, Gang Leader Wan was in charge, so naturally nothing happened. Once Gang Leader Wan dies, no one will take Wanfu seriously, and Wanfu will naturally not be able to escape disaster. .

At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew by, and a figure seemed to appear out of thin air, standing quietly in the field.

This terrifying speed frightened many people.

One of the middle-aged men with a strong face crossed his fists and said politely:

The chief arrester in Xiachuan Jiangcheng is Huo Gaofei. You are Mr. Jiang from Daluo Sect, right?

Jiang Heng also cupped his fists and returned the greeting: "My name is Jiang Heng, an outer disciple of Daluo Sect."

He looked at the scene and asked solemnly:

Huo Captou, whats going on? Did my junior brother die here too?

Huo Gaofei took him to one of the corpses, lifted up the white cloth, and revealed the charred corpse inside.

On this corpse, we found the identity plate of your sects inner disciple.

Jiang Heng knelt down, took the identity card, and looked at the body again.

Thats right, this is my junior brother.

Who is the murderer? Have you found any clues?

Huo Gaofei took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone:

The case occurred in the early morning, but because it was too dark to clean up the scene, the investigation started early in the morning.

Currently, everyone, including this inner disciple of your sect, had their throats cut with a sword, and then set on fire and burned.

"This is natural. There are disciples of your sect among the deceased. Any progress will be shared with your sect as soon as possible."

To a certain extent, the sect has a certain degree of autonomy. As long as it involves the sect, the sect can handle it on its own. For example, in the previous convoy robbery and murder case, the life and death of Gang Leader Wan was freely handled by Daluo Sect.

When it comes to the death of a large number of civilians, it is mainly handled by the court.

Hence, the case of the Wanfu family extermination was naturally handled by the imperial department.

After the two continued to talk for a while, Jiang Heng turned around and left.

He knew that he was not professional in investigating cases and could only wait for the results of Captain Huo's investigation.

After leaving the Wanfu Ruins, Jiang Heng did not return to the mine immediately. Instead, he went to the Wanhe Merchant Alliance in Chuanjiang City to purchase some Qi and Blood Pills.

In fact, cultivation materials such as Qi and Blood Pills are not exclusive to the Daluo Sect, nor are they even refined by the Daluo Sect. Instead, they are purchased in bulk from the Wanhe Merchant Alliance.

In this world, sects have clear levels.

Elementary sect, intermediate sect, advanced sect, and top sect.

All sects are under the jurisdiction of the Holy Land. Every five years, they conduct joint martial arts competitions and re-evaluate their levels.

Different levels, the difference is not only in reputation, but also in various substantive benefits.

One of them is the purchase discount from Wanhe Merchant Alliance.

The higher the sect level, the greater the discount.

Looking at the entire sects five-year consumption of various materials, there is a huge gap in interests between sects at each level.

In the Sutra Collection Hall of Daluo Sect, Jiang Heng read books that introduced the sect system of this world.

While it was an eye-opener for him, he also had a suspicion in his mind that with the great strength of Daluo Sect, he could only act honestly and according to the rules under the suppression of the Holy Land.

And the high-altitude holy land is only in a corner.

Books do not even record any wars between holy places.

All of this seems to indicate that there is a more powerful force that secretly controls the balance of the entire world at a higher level.

Just like the Holy Land secretly controlling the order within the dynasty.

Level after level, this constitutes a world where martial arts is respected but orderly.

However.

There are still three secular institutions in this world, but they span many dynasties. They are equivalent to official forces and are respected by all forces.

That is: Wantong Bank, Wanhe Merchant Alliance, and the mysterious Qianshan Tower.

Obviously, these three secular institutions are also powerful forces that dominate the holy land.
