Chapter 211: Killer Behind The Scenes

But because Wan Qian’s mother’s identity needed to be kept a secret, as well as the details of her work, she could not appear in the Yan Shen Empire’s capital.

Thus, on the surface, only Senior Wan Qian was the inheritor of the Wan clan’s many properties.

And if this was the other party’s goal, then their actions could be explained.

But they could not make the Gu Immortal Sect give in.

Because Senior Wan Qian’s assets were controlled by the Gu Immortal Sect, the Gu Immortal Sect was very concerned about Senior Wan Qian’s safety.

And if they encountered such a situation, the Gu Immortal Sect would definitely send elders or even people on the sect master’s level to fight against any force.

Even if they could obtain what they wanted at the last minute, it would not stay that way for long.

Fang Yuan thought of these possibilities and immediately focused his gaze, looking at Junior Gu Tianqing in front of him and asked.

“Gu Tianqing, did you ask that servant of yours, did the underground force of this local organization have any more information?”

“Since they could track Senior Wan Qian when she just left the Gu Immortal Sect’s residence, they must have a lot of people around here, so there should be quite a number of them in this Yan Shen Empire’s capital.”

“Did they discover anything else today?”

“Based on the information I have, they don’t have any other information, otherwise, I would have known about it long ago.”

Fang Yuan silently calculated in his heart. The incident that happened in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire today, this huge disturbance must have huge demands.

And according to what he knew, the Wan clan behind Senior Wan Qian had quite a lot of assets in the past. And this time, it was unknown which faction was interested in the Wan clan’s assets and wanted to make a move?

At this moment, Fang Yuan thought for a moment.

He immediately understood that this was the enemy’s conspiracy.

On the surface, such a huge commotion in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire today was orchestrated in order to cover up their true operation while diverting the attention of the various factions.

And in the dark, they had kidnapped Senior Wan Qian, who was the only descendant of the Wan clan.

Taking into account the chaos in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire, it was not entirely caused by the factions behind them. They only played the role of a guide at the beginning and a catalyst for the subsequent events.

Fang Yuan was almost certain that the mastermind behind the chaos in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire this time was definitely after Senior Wan Qian.

Thus, Fang Yuan hurriedly said to Junior Gu Tianqing beside him, “Gu Tianqing! Go back and investigate quickly. What exactly happened in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire today?”

“And what exactly was the force that was driving the waves and causing this material looting to happen!”

“I have a bad feeling, they are probably the main culprit behind Senior Wan Qian’s disappearance!”

Fang Yuan said to Gu Tianqing with certainty.

Gu Tianqing was stunned when he heard this. He quickly agreed and ran out of the Gu Immortal Sect’s residence.

At this time, Fang Yuan no longer hesitated, and he followed closely behind Junior Gu Tianqing, heading towards the Gu clan’s location in the Yan Shen Empire’s capital.

Since he had already guessed the other party’s final goal, what he should do now was to rescue his Gu Immortal Sect disciple. If he continued to stand here, he would only delay the battle!

When Fang Yuan, Gu Tianqing, Qin Han, Zhou Chang and the other disciples arrived at the Gu clan’s location, another group of Gu Clan servants who had gone out to gather information also returned.

“Reporting to the young master! According to the latest information from the imperial palace, the current emperor of the Yan Shen Empire, the Yan Shen Saint, was furious and requested the Supreme Court to immediately mobilize manpower to investigate the culprit behind these events.”

At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Fang Yuan’s mind!

Just last night, Bai Yao from the Gu Demon Sect suddenly came to the small courtyard in front of his room to have a close conversation with him and told him to be careful of the Zhang clan, which was also one of the four top clans in the Yan Shen Empire’s capital.

However, only half a day had passed, and his Senior Wan Qian had disappeared.

Moreover, the way she disappeared was exactly the same as the two juniors Ruan Qinghe and Gu Yuange who had been kidnapped previously.

The moment this thought crossed his mind, Fang Yuan subconsciously guessed that this was definitely done by the Zhang clan.

They had done something similar before!

Immediately, Fang Yuan’s heart was filled with rage.

The Zhang clan, are they done yet?

Time and time again, assassinations and attacks were directed at him and the people around him.

In the past few times, I didn’t pursue the matter and gave you a chance, but you actually went overboard after each time!

It seemed that the Zhang clan was really tired of living!

Thus, Fang Yuan no longer controlled the anger in his heart, and he cursed loudly on the spot.

Fuck!

“This damned Zhang clan, I will not let you off!”

Fang Yuan then activated the Gu worm in his body, causing the spirit essence to flow to his feet.

Under the effect of the movement Gu worm, Fang Yuan quickly rushed towards the location of the Zhang clan.

At a brightly lit courtyard gate that was as majestic as the Gu clan’s courtyard gate, a large number of servants were entering and leaving.

This was the order of their Zhang clan head. Because the Yan Shen Empire’s Gu Dao Convention was currently being held, they had dressed up their courtyard to be very festive and lively.

At this moment, the Zhang clan’s butler Zhang Changpu was leading the eighteen leaders of the Zhang clan’s guards to maintain order at the Zhang clan’s entrance.

Since the Zhang clan had already made the decision to maintain prosperity during the Gu Dao Convention and add a bit of glory to the Yan Shen Empire’s capital, then in order to make their actions more worthy of their name, they sent out a group of experts to maintain order at the entrance.

In order to maintain peace in front of their own entrance, they also wanted to show off the strength of a top force of the capital, the Zhang clan, to the many passers-by as well as the many sects from the Yan Shen Empire’s territory.

This Zhang clan’s butler and the eighteen leaders of the Zhang clan’s guards were all very powerful!

Just from their aura alone, each of them had the strength of a sixth layer Enlightenment Realm expert. In addition to their exposed limbs, they displayed their huge bodies and muscles.

As the saying goes, in the Gu Dao Jiuzhou world, the number of experts was extremely few!

Thus, under such circumstances, the intermediate experts were often the most sought after existences. They might not be able to take on a top-tier expert alone, but when they gathered in groups of three to five, or when more than ten of them gathered together, there was a Lollapalooza Effect, where one plus one was greater than two.

However, in such a situation where their strength increased, when they had just a few more people, it would instead cause their overall strength to rapidly decline.
