Nie Xiaochun said, "Actually, it doesn't matter how we set off. Our movements can't be hidden from those who are determined to find us."

"Because the map Xue Shaoyuan left here doesn't have an end point. It only marks 'Shi Dakai's Treasure' near the supposed destination."

I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Where's the map? Let me see it."

Nie Xiaochun said, "There's no original map. Xue Shaoyuan forcibly imprinted the map into that woman's memory after he drew it. So, I can only draw it out."

I muttered softly, "Why is Xue Shaoyuan so unreliable?"

Lin Zhao retorted, "The Sect Leader was guarding against enemies! If he directly marked the specific location, what if someone else got it?"

"I still feel something's not right!" I shook my head and said, "Forget it, I don't want to think about it. Let's get to the place first. We're still a long way from entering Sichuan!"

Driving from the Bu family's side into Sichuan would take at least thirty hours. I'd have plenty of time on the road to slowly consider these things.

Not long after we set off, we received news that made my blood boil: rumors in the world of magic claimed that I had massacred Bu's Village and killed countless people.

Lin Zhao said, "Those people Old Liu arranged are all supporting us. Zero is also controlling the public opinion. But, there are still people who want us to come out and give an explanation."

I glanced at Lin Zhao's phone and said, "Ignore them. We don't have time to get entangled with them right now."

"But…" Lin Zhao said worriedly, "This time, it's not just the world of magic, but also officials who want us to come out and cooperate with the investigation!"

I replied, "Contact Xiang Kai and have him find a way to resolve the official matter. If that doesn't work, ask Wang Hun to step in."

Before Xiang Kai retired from the jianghu, he had always been an official. His mediation should solve the problem.

Nie Xiaochun couldn't reach Xiang Kai, so she had to contact Wang Hun.

Although Wang Hun had become a ghost deity of the underworld, his subordinates who remained in the human world had always held positions in special departments. Some of them were even at the absolute top.

Wang Hun originally wanted to leave the matter to Xiao Mao'er to explain, but unexpectedly, Ye Mu received the news first. He directly barged into the person's office and beat them up. Not satisfied, he took all the people in charge of handling the matter away for questioning.

This matter blew up, and the entire department was in chaos, with everyone coming to Ye Mu for reckoning.

Who knew that the guy would go all the way, not only did he not let anyone go, but he also brought the captured people into the interrogation room and questioned them thoroughly.

As a result, he really got something out of it. The Reincarnation Department (Lunhui Si) had actually planted spies in the special department.

Now the department was truly in an uproar.

Unfortunately, Wang Hun suppressed the officialdom but couldn't suppress the jianghu.

As our car approached the entrance to Sichuan, we saw a long banner standing by the roadside. It was a sign for jianghu people blocking the road, meaning: they wanted to invite us over for a chat.

I glanced at the "Invitation Banner" and said, "Ignore it, keep going!"

Not long after our car passed the invitation banner, several whistling signal arrows were fired into the sky from the woods on the side of the road. The jianghu people hiding in the dark were getting impatient and issued a warning to us.

Lin Zhao, who was driving, couldn't help but ask, "What do we do? Should we go over and take a look?"

"Ignore them, keep going!" As my face darkened, three cars simultaneously followed us, surrounding us in a triangular formation, like an escort, suppressing my car's speed.

I slowly said to Lin Zhao, "Follow them!"

Lin Zhao slowed down and followed the other party's car to a secluded clearing, where someone was already waiting for us.

After I got out of the car, the person sitting in the grand master's chair also raised their eyes and looked over at me, "The people of the Two Realms Hall (Liang Jie Tang) are really hard to invite!"

I said with a cold face, "Spit it out. I don't have time to waste with you."

The person didn't expect me to be so fiery as soon as I got out of the car, and their expression immediately turned ugly, "I am Jiao Jian, the Sect Leader of the Spirit Boat Sect (Ling Zhou Men). This time, at the invitation of fellow cultivators, I invited Hall Master Li over to ask you to explain the cause of the 'Bu Village Massacre'."

"Spirit Boat Sect?" I sized up the other person a few times. "Why should I explain to you? And what qualifications do you have to make me explain?"

Jiao Jian didn't expect that I would be so direct. He was stunned for two or three seconds before sternly saying, "Hundreds of villagers were killed, and Bu's Village became a dead zone overnight. And you just happened to be in Bu's Village. Shouldn't you explain?"

I said with a half-smile, "How many thefts, robberies, and murders occur in your city in a single day? Explain to me why these cases have nothing to do with you. Explain!"

"Why should I explain to you?" Jiao Jian was stunned as soon as he said the words.

I sneered and said, "You cheap thing! Don't bother yourself for nothing in the future. Let's go!"

I was about to turn around when I heard someone say, "Li Po, if you don't give a reasonable explanation today, we won't let you leave."

When I looked over in the direction of the voice, I saw several old men with white hair and beards.

The leader said, "You released the Nine-Tailed Fox and entered Bu's Village at night. Shouldn't you give an explanation to the world of magic for either of those things? Aren't you apologizing to the world of magic for these things?"
