After carefully probing with the Human Bone Staff, he sensed a faint spiritual power reaction on Fu Qingzhu’s body, but it was already very weak.
Based on his experience, Yang Xiao determined that soone had used a Magic Artifact to drain Fu Qingzhu’s spiritual power and trap him, which was why his body was in this state.
This tactic was indeed vicious. If the opponent could do this to Fu Qingzhu, then killing him would be a simple matter, but the opponent did not do so.
Yang Xiao could think of two reasons for this: First, the opponent wanted Fu Qingzhu to die ambiguously, after all, he was the vice president of the United Federation and a senior official of the Three-party Action Bureau, with certain social influence, killing him directly would be unwise.
The second reason, which Yang Xiao found more plausible, was that the opponent wanted to extract secrets from Fu Qingzhu’s mouth.
It was not that Yang Xiao looked down on Fu Qingzhu; he was just a Low-level Apostle touching the threshold of the Fierce Grade, not of much value. The fact that such figures were mobilized to deal with him was most likely directed at Yang Xiao.
Realizing that his good brother was injured because of him, Yang Xiao could not forgive the occurrence of such events, he would definitely investigate the entire matter thoroughly and pull out the mastermind behind it.
Even if Yiling Academy really sent experts, Yang Xiao didn’t fear them.
Not to ntion that his actual combat power could already contend with masters of the Upper Ghost Level, he also had a group of brothers behind him.
Sui Chengguo was without a doubt, at critical monts, he could go to Xiang Ma Town to ask Second Demon Uncle for advice.
There was also the Jiangbei Province Office, if anyone wanted to harm him, the Province Office would stand up for him, as he had made significant contributions during the Esoteric Sect expedition.
Moreover, ever since his alliance with Elder Sheng, the Jiangbei Province Office had already taken a stance; they would fully support Elder Sheng’s takeover of Yiling Academy.
And this was not sothing that the Jiangbei Public Office could decide alone; there was definitely approval from the senior levels of the Patrol General Bureau. Yang Xiao was relying on a strong backing.
Looking at Fu Qingzhu on the sickbed, Yang Xiao took a deep breath. Considering his good brother’s current state, sustaining for a few more days was the limit. The bastard who attacked him was doing it without spilling blood.
The only fortunate thing was that he returned in ti, any further delay, and all hope would have been lost.
From the hallway outside ca hurried footsteps, presumably the people from the monitoring room had detected a problem with the surveillance caras and were rushing over.
Without further hesitation, Yang Xiao had a thought, flashed back to the Mirror World, and returned ho as quickly as possible, at which point Nalan Shuo had already left, leaving only Sui Chengguo.
After briefly explaining the situation to Sui Chengguo, Sui Chengguo imdiately judged that it was Old Monster Pu and his lot causing trouble, they captured Fu Qingzhu and extracted his spiritual power to imprison him, certainly to interrogate about Yang Xiao.
Knowing that Yang Xiao was anxious, Sui Chengguo shifted the conversation to comfort, "Brother Yang, don’t worry. From the current perspective, things aren’t too bad, after all, Fu Qingzhu is still alive, which ans the opponent hasn’t extracted crucial information, otherwise they’d have acted sooner."
"But he can’t hold on much longer, his spiritual power sensing is already very weak." This was what Yang Xiao was most worried about.
The urgent task now was to find the perpetrator, and release Fu Qingzhu’s spirit.
Sui Chengguo inford Yang Xiao that before Director Nalan left, he made arrangents to imdiately use various connections to track the whereabouts of Elder Pu from Yiling Academy, as long as he remains in Rongcheng, he won’t escape.
Additionally, Director Nalan uncovered a key piece of information; currently, the Apostles Union is secretly hunting a few people, all close to Fu Qingzhu. A female secretary, a bodyguard, and a driver, it is said that these individuals betrayed Fu Qingzhu, leading to him being severely injured by the Evil Cultivator.
That night, tossing and turning in bed, whenever Yang Xiao closed his eyes, he saw the pale, haggard face of Fu Qingzhu, until late in the night when Yang Xiao suddenly received a ssage from Tong Han.
Upon reading its content, Yang Xiao imdiately sat up from the bed.
"We captured a person in the town, from Rongcheng, asking everywhere for the residence of Pingxi Marquis, claiming to have vital information to see you. He won’t say anything until he ets you personally."
Upon returning, Yang Xiao first assured Tong Han of his safety, not expecting such news just a few hours later.
Without hesitation, Yang Xiao got Sui Chengguo up, reported to Director Nalan, and set out imdiately under the cover of night for Xiang Ma Town.
Before leaving, Yang Xiao didn’t forget to bring gifts for the Second Demon Uncle and two fellow brothers, as he genuinely needed help this ti.
Arriving at Xiang Ma Town as quickly as possible, without ti for formalities, Yang Xiao t a nervous young man in a secret room.
Not yet 30, sporting a traitorous split hairstyle, greasy hair, clothes slightly dirty, sallow complexion, eyes bloodshot, evidently lacking rest for a long ti, looking quite anxious.
As soon as he saw Yang Xiao, he imdiately recognized him and stood up excitedly, "Director Yang! Director Yang, it’s !"
Yang Xiao also found him sowhat familiar but couldn’t recall.
Seeing Yang Xiao was scrutinizing him, the man almost cried from grievance, "Director Yang, I’m President Fu’s driver, you’ve seen !"
Hearing this, Yang Xiao frowned, and the next second, he imdiately rembered, indeed, this man was Fu Qingzhu’s private driver, he had ridden in Fu Qingzhu’s car several tis before, always driven by this man.
