Han Yi stood up with a roar, ready to walk outside.

Although his face looked fierce, at this moment, Han Yi’s inner heart was tense.

What he had done wasn’t too much, and with the Myriad Immortal Command, even the cultivators of the Immortal Pavilion wouldn’t dare to attack him.

“Fellow Daoist, please wait.”

The shopkeeper who appraised the broken black sword hurriedly called out to Han Yi, his face showing a troubled expression: “Fellow Daoist, even if you go to the Profound Immortal Pavilion now, you won’t be able to find Zhuo Qun.” Hearing this, Han Yi’s heart skipped a beat, not expecting to gain something from his first stop.

His original plan was to cause a commotion in the Immortal Pavilion first, giving everyone a solid impression. As for this shopkeeper, he guessed that he would definitely not go with him.

Next, he would go to the Profound Immortal Pavilion, framing the broken black sword as being sold to him by Zhuo Qun. After all, Zhuo Qun had disappeared, and he knew about Zhuo Qun. In addition to the various bits of information obtained from Liu Ruyan, the Profound Immortal Pavilion couldn’t argue with him.

At that time, he would become a creditor of the Profound Immortal Pavilion. He would make a scene and demand a statement. However, Zhuo Qun had disappeared, and only his disciple, Wei Tushen, remained. Under these circumstances, Wei Tushen would naturally be unable to deal with it.

After that, Han Yi would openly seek out Zhuo Qun with the aim of taking revenge.

This way, there should be some gains.

Of course, this was Han Yi’s initial idea, to intervene in Zhuo Qun’s disappearance with another identity and take things as they come. If he encountered an enemy beyond his own strength, he would naturally choose to show the inspection order and make use of the Daqian Six Ministries’ power, or even directly hide in the Daqian Six Ministries’ Palace and wait for Zhuge Wu You’s arrival.

However.

He didn’t expect that even a normal shopkeeper of the Immortal Pavilion would know about Zhuo Qun’s disappearance. Something must have happened during the ten days he had been away.

“Hm?”

With thoughts flashing through his inner heart, Han Yi had already turned his head back. His thick eyebrows raised, and amidst a puzzled expression, an invisible fierce aura revealed itself, causing the shopkeeper’s face to change slightly. Han Yi looked too ferocious, as if the next moment, a fight would break out.

Although there were Gold Core cultivators stationed in the Immortal Pavilion, they would not interfere unless absolutely necessary, especially since Han Yi’s behavior was reasonable and appropriate, without any intimidation or coercion.

“Can’t find him? What do you mean by that?”

Though it was a question, Han Yi interpreted the momentum as if he was about to unsheathe his sword and slash someone in the next instant.

The shopkeeper wiped the nonexistent cold sweat from his forehead. “Fellow Daoist, don’t be impatient. Let’s sit down first, and I’ll explain slowly.” This time, Han Yi did not refuse again. He walked back to the shopkeeper and sat down. The other cultivators nearby, seeing that there was no drama to watch, withdrew their gazes. As for Han Yi, who had returned, he noticed a divine sense sweeping over his body. He had been prepared, staying calm and not reacting.

“Fellow Daoist, Zhuo Qun from the Profound Immortal Pavilion has been missing for ten days.” The shopkeeper explained.

Han Yi was puzzled: “Missing? Does that mean he’s dead? What am I supposed to do with this sword?”

Han Yi didn’t beat around the bush, showing a clear expression of disbelief and asking more questions without waiting for the shopkeeper to finish.

“And how did you know he’s dead? Your Immortal Pavilion is a business rival of the Profound Immortal Pavilion. Did you kill him?”

Han Yi’s words frightened the shopkeeper, and his face turned solemn as he became more serious.

“Fellow Daoist, you can’t speak nonsense. My Immortal Pavilion has been in Daqian for so many years and has experienced all kinds of storms. We wouldn’t resort to attacking a shopkeeper no matter how desperate we were.” Although Han Yi also felt that it was unlikely for the Immortal Pavilion to be involved, the possibility of such a crime couldn’t be ruled out completely.

A saying from his previous life went:

False business warfare is strategizing and plotting against each other, with both sides fighting each other evenly and winning by wit in the battle.

Real business warfare is trespassing, taking secret photos, poisoning in food, stealing the official seal and computer, signing fake contracts, and direct brute force.

Therefore, the Immortal Pavilion wasn’t entirely free of suspicion, but that suspicion was small.

“Tell me, what happened? I just came back from the Evil Mountain Range, and you’re saying Zhuo Qun disappeared. When you finish, 1’11 go to the Profound Immortal Pavilion, and I’ll know.”

Han Yi’s expression was still puzzled, but the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. The fellow Daoist with the Myriad Immortal Command in front of him was not an unreasonable person, which was good.

“Fellow Daoist, even if you go to the Profound Immortal Pavilion now, I’m afraid you won’t find anyone.”

“After Zhuo Qun’s disappearance from the Immortal Pavilion, his disciple Wei Tushen went mad on the third day. He killed three Qi Cultivating Cultivators who had entered Profound Immortal Pavilion to buy magical artifacts on the spot. Then, Wei Tushen rushed out of Profound Immortal Pavilion and attacked passing cultivators, only to be killed on the spot.”

“These are the conclusions drawn from the investigations of the Daqian Six Ministries. Now, the cultivators of Xuandan Sect are required not to leave their residence and wait for the people of Xuandan Sect to arrive in the Immortal Official Department to cooperate with the investigation before the ban on the Profound Immortal Pavilion can be lifted.”

“Moreover, I heard that it was the officers of the Demon Slaying Army who gave the order. As for why the Demon Slaying Army was involved, I don’t know.”

“This matter has been widely discussed, and the whole Jinyun Immortal City already knows about it. Fellow Daoist, go and inquire about it in any tavern, inn or business establishment outside, and you shall naturally know the truth..”
