After searching the village carefully and finding no useful clues, the group headed towards the village entrance.
Walking along the village path, the atmosphere was somewhat silent, and for a moment, no one spoke.
When the group arrived at the village entrance, they saw the figure of Ghost Leopard walking over from the other side.
"Ghost Leopard, did you find anything on your side?"
Qian Renxue looked at the returning Ghost Leopard and asked.
"Young Lord, Young Miss."
"I found several corpses wearing our Spirit Hall uniforms over there, but there were no signs of a struggle in the surrounding area. Therefore, based on my deduction, it is highly likely that the perpetrator in this village is an Evil Soul Master."
Ghost Leopard's expression was very serious, and his voice was filled with gravity.
The reason he deduced it was the work of an Evil Soul Master was that a normal Spirit Master would basically never be so insane as to massacre an entire village, let alone kill people from our Spirit Hall.
"Take us to see it."
A trace of anger appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes, and her fair palms involuntarily clenched into fists.
"Yes, Young Lord."
Ghost Leopard agreed and led the way.
Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yue, Ling Yuan, and the others followed behind Ghost Leopard, walking forward.
Soon, the group arrived at the place Ghost Leopard mentioned. There were three corpses here, all dressed in Spirit Hall deacon uniforms.
Qian Renxue looked at the corpses on the ground, while Ye Xi began to examine the surrounding situation.
"There are absolutely no signs of a struggle in the surroundings."
"This means that these three deacons had absolutely no ability to resist before they died."
Ye Xi looked at the surrounding environment, her voice filled with seriousness.
"Let's head to the nearest Spirit Hall first."
"Let's see if we can get any clues, and by the way, have them send people to clean this place up."
After calming her emotions, Qian Renxue turned around and walked in the direction they had come from.
Ye Xi and Tian Yue didn't speak, walking on either side of Qian Renxue.
Ghost Leopard and Ling Yuan quickly caught up with their pace.
Returning to where the carriage was parked, Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yue, and Ling Yuan entered the carriage, while Ghost Leopard sat at the very front, driving the carriage towards the nearest Spirit Hall.
...
Fengning City.
Spirit Hall Main Hall.
As the person in charge of the Main Hall, Shi Yang was currently looking at the intelligence in his hand with a gloomy expression.
"Two villages, two whole villages were completely massacred, and three deacons have gone missing."
"Yet you haven't investigated anything at all."
"What are you all good for!"
Shi Yang slammed the intelligence heavily onto the table, the last sentence almost roared out.
Listening to Shi Yang's roar, the deacons standing below looked at each other, then uniformly lowered their heads, saying nothing.
