C116 West Prefecture

On the other side, Chu Jingli and his group had arrived at a county town called the West Prefecture.

"I wonder if that person was right. Does the Empress really pass by here?" In her heart, she whispered to herself.

On the way, they asked around for the Empress's whereabouts. There was a Chai Fu who said that he saw an extremely similar woman in the Western Prefecture, but he didn't know if that was true or not. Chu Jingli naturally couldn't let go of any clues and rushed over without stopping.

"Young Master, let's find an inn to eat first." Otherwise, it's not convenient to look for it if you're hungry. " The Phantom Shadow was not for herself, but for her Young Master's body. Even though it was important to find someone, it could not mistreat her body.

Chu Jingli nodded, "En."

Just like that, the four of them tied up the horses and entered an inn.

The footman was a meticulous person. Taking advantage of the waiter's greeting, he took out a portrait and asked, "Has second brother seen this girl before?"

The waiter took the portrait and looked at it carefully, then shook his head, "My apologies, but I've never seen it before. However, this West Prefecture County is not small, so why don't you ask a few more people."

"Sorry for disturbing you." Following his example, he cupped his hands. Because he was in charge of all the businesses in the Zhao Family, he had a lot of experience in dealing with people.

"Waiter, please give us a few of the signature dishes here." Phantom Shadow always cared a lot about food. In the general's manor, she could fully assume the role of a food butler.

"Do you want wine?" The waiter asked.

Chu Jingli shook his head, "No need."

He wouldn't make a mistake like drinking wine or causing trouble.

"Alright!" The waiter nimbly placed the cleaning cloth on his shoulder and smiled as he bowed next to Chu Jingli, "Master, you're so handsome."

When she heard this, she couldn't help but laugh. It seemed like the general's beauty was already 'unstoppable', anyone who saw her would praise her.

Of course, the waiter was different from the Ba-Serpent. The Ba-Serpent was greedy, and the waiter had only said this out of good intentions as a reminder.

Why do you say that? Listen to the other guests in the inn.

"Ai, another man has gone missing. I heard he's a young master from Emissary Wang's house. Now Emissary Wang has paid a hefty sum of money to hire someone who's capable enough to track down Young Master Wang."

"It's already the eighth. That witch is truly arrogant. I wonder where she's hiding the person?"

"I'm guessing we won't be able to find her. That demoness is a fox spirit who kidnapped that handsome man and absorbed his Yang energy."

Upon hearing this, Phantom's mouth opened wide. What? A vixen? And he was even absorbing the yang aura from these handsome men? Wouldn't his young master be in danger?

He turned to look at his young master, who was drinking tea with absolute calmness.

She left her seat and walked over to the side of the chattering crowd and asked softly, "What you just said, is it true?"

Seeing that this girl didn't seem like a bad person, one of them answered, "Of course it's true. The handsome men in the Western Prefecture went missing one after the other and had already alarmed the government. However, the old master of the government couldn't find anything.

"Is it really a woman? But how can a woman have so much strength? " She spoke out the doubts in her heart.

Aren't most women weak? He couldn't possibly be a match for a man.

"I can only say that the martial arts of that girl is too powerful."

"I don't think so." Another person interjected, "It's obviously a lustful fox. Otherwise, why would it be a handsome man that didn't go missing and had an ordinary appearance?"

It could be seen that the witch was extremely greedy.

"Miss, you have to remind your master." The man pointed at Chu Li. "His appearance suits that demoness perfectly."

Chu Jingli bitterly smiled in his heart. He really had to thank him for his affirmation of his appearance.

"Thank you for your guidance." After blessing her, she returned to her original seat. "Young Master …"

Chu Jingli interrupted her, "Eat your food."

After he finished eating, he paid the silver and the shopkeeper reminded him kindly, "I heard that you guys are here for someone. If you really can't find anyone, then hurry up and leave. That witch is very powerful."

Sui Xiong didn't seem to care. "Coincidentally, my Young Master is in charge of catching demons."

After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes landed on Chu Jingli. His lips curled up into a smile.

It seemed that the only one who understood him now was his shadow.

Exiting the inn, she was puzzled. "Young Master, aren't we here to look for someone?" Are you sure you want to take care of this matter? "

"Could it be that this world is filled with kings? As an official, it is my duty to share my worries. Besides, if I don't quickly find the culprit, even more people will be killed."

Ru Ying expressed her appreciation for his words. It was only the manner of a general when a young master risked his life to save someone else.

"Then Young Master, where are we going now?" Ru Ying asked.

"I'm guessing it's someone else's residence." Another prophecy.

Chu Jingli nodded. He didn't think that before, but today, he realized that this little fella understood him quite well.

"Ah?" "Then, Young Master, you can't be doing this for the reward of one thousand silver, right?" These words sounded quite like a joke.

Chu Jingli gave Suifeng a look and indicated for him to take the place of a reply.

"One thousand silver taels is just one of them, because you don't want the money for nothing. Two, we also have a place to stay, so there's no need to stay at the inn. Three, the disappearance of the young master of the Wang family and the murder scene of the Wang family, if we go there, we might be able to obtain some clues."

"Exactly." Chu Jingli clapped.

This form definitely had the potential to be his trusted aide.

Outside of Wang Yuan's room, he saw Chu Jingli and the others as if they were Bodhisattva trying to save a disaster.

First, Chu Jingli had an extraordinary appearance and his entire body was emitting a righteous aura.

Second, Steward Wang also knew a bit about appearances. Chu Jingli's face signified that he was a great general. He must be a person of high status.

Very easily, they became distinguished guests of the manor.

"My son went missing for three days, it's hard to find his whereabouts. Now, I can only rely on you and Young Master Chu." Speaking of which, there were tears of bitterness in his eyes. What was the crime in having a handsome son? Yet he had to suffer the evil hands of this man.

"Lady Wang, don't worry. I will do my best."

If it was done to commit evil, he would definitely punish it. If it was done by a demon, he would definitely exterminate the devils and exterminate the demons.

The butler next to Steward Wang did not understand. Why did the master treat these four people as reinforcements? They don't look anything special.

On the other hand, this Chu Jingli was even better looking than his own young master. Maybe he wouldn't be able to kill the demon and would end up throwing his life away instead.
