Chapter 1756 - 647: Su Mo Administers Poison (Part 2)

In a moment, the crowd had already reached the scene.

They saw several mutilated bodies, gnawed full of holes, skinless and blood-soaked.

Several dogs had already been killed nearby, but even so, one dog had a skinless hand hanging from its mouth...

Judging by the broken state of the corpse, it’s likely that a lot of flesh has already been eaten by these dogs.

This scene was truly unbearable to witness.

All who were present furrowed their brows simultaneously.

Yang Xiaoyun turned pale, a wave of nausea surged in her heart.

Unable to bear it, she separated from the crowd and found a place to vomit.

Su Mo hesitated, didn’t look around much, and quickly followed Yang Xiaoyun, gently patting her back:

"Are you alright?"

"...I’m okay."

Yang Xiaoyun forced a smile: "It’s getting worse."

Su Mo slightly shook his head:

"As long as you’re okay."

Just as he said this, Wei Ziyi and Little Situ also hurried over.

Seeing Yang Xiaoyun’s pale face, Wei Ziyi quickly came to support her.

She also voiced her doubt:

"Sister Xiao Yun, are you okay? You’ve seen cruel scenes before, haven’t you? Not like this though."

"It’s likely because it’s been a long time since I’ve experienced such battles, my composure isn’t as strong as before."

Yang Xiaoyun smiled:

"Don’t worry about me, I’m alright.

"Sister Hua isn’t here, the people from Tianjing Sect should have only discovered Elder Zhou’s corpse, yet they didn’t catch the assassin."

"Could it be Elder Zhou?"

Little Situ suddenly spoke.

Wei Ziyi and Yang Xiaoyun couldn’t help but look up.

Little Situ spoke softly:

"That body is skinless, it’s already impossible to identify. I only think, if it were Brother Su, the first suspicion would be whether it’s really Elder Zhou."

"You, you’re becoming more like him."

Wei Ziyi glared at her.

Little Situ’s face immediately turned red: "No I haven’t..."

While speaking, she secretly glanced at Su Mo.

And saw Su Mo smiling quietly:

"Whether he is Elder Zhou isn’t important...

"The important thing is, who would do such a thing?

"At least from the current situation, Elder Zhou is dead, his human skin flayed, and his body dragged here to feed dogs."

As he spoke, he whispered:

"We all know how nefarious Sikong Hua Ji’s Heavenly Seizing God Transformation Great Technique is.

"The person who did this seemed to be recreating this, piecing together human skin and taking away flesh from someone lying on the couch.

"This person went to great lengths, why act in such a manner?"

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions slightly changed.

However, Su Mo did not continue talking.

This place was crowded, not the place for discussion.

Fortunately, now everyone was discussing, no one paid attention to these unimportant little escort masters.

After waiting a bit longer, Chen Dinghai and others also returned.

Lu Ren and Hong Tai did not find Hua Shiyi, and looked grim.

They wanted to search, but had no leads.

The person who killed Elder Zhou and fed the body to dogs, severed all traces.

The people from Tianjing Sect, belatedly, began to surround the area, seal off the information, preventing people from looking around the scene.

The group could only return empty-handed, thinking to discuss further after returning to the courtyard.

However, Lu Ren and Hong Tai held on to a sliver of hope.

If Hua Shiyi had already returned, things would be simpler.

Unfortunately, upon arriving at the courtyard, Hua Shiyi was still nowhere to be seen.

Lu Ren was momentarily distressed.

Currently, Imperial Court Mountain is a mix of dragons and snakes, a group of people each has their own agendas.

With Hua Shiyi not returning deep in the night, it truly makes them uneasy.

Yet, they dare not rashly inquire with the people from Tianjing Sect.

After all, they just had a elder die tonight, if they learn someone from their side is unreturned in the night.

Originally wouldn’t suspect Hua Shiyi, but might ponder a bit.

Helplessly, they end up in sheer anxiety.

Others shared in the anxiety for a while before returning to their rooms.

Thus awaited another two hours.

Once the courtyard was completely quiet, Yang Xiaoyun then took out the night clothes again, to help Su Mo wear them.

While tidying his collar, she softly said:

"Tonight, the security at Imperial Court Mountain will be tight.

"You must be cautious."

"You know me."

Su Mo pulled Yang Xiaoyun’s hand closer:

"If truly discovered, at most we’ll overturn the table."

"I know you, hence I know you absolutely wouldn’t act like that."

Yang Xiaoyun shook her head with a smile:

"The Jinglong Association must be eliminated, otherwise you won’t be at peace.

"Now is the time to find a way to catch them all.

"If you overturn the table now, and one or two escape, what then?"

Su Mo nodded gently, gave Yang Xiaoyun a kiss on the forehead:

"Just trust me... Speaking of which, Lady seems to be a bit sentimental lately?"

"Do I?"

Yang Xiaoyun was taken aback, shook her head with a smile:

"If you meet Sister Hua, remember to bring her back.

"Seeing her always makes me think of the past self.

"I don’t know why, things that never seemed a big deal now seem a bit sad when thought over."

As she said this, her eyes reddened slightly:

"Sister Hua doesn’t know our identity, but she is very good to us.

"Lu Ren’s group must have deep-seated grudges with this Tianjing Sect, tonight he inquired about the bloodstains, obviously knows something.

"Though it doesn’t concern us, according to the Jianghu Path of Chivalry, if we can help, we should."
