<h4>Chapter 832: Chapter 834: Still Want a Reward</h4>
Chu Ge looked at his deste expression, which didn’t seem like he was lying at all, and sighed inwardly, "What’s the point of this?"
Chu Ge slowly raised his hand, a wisp of True Qi swiftly shot out from his palm, and as it neared that man, it transformed into several sharp swords, piercing directly into the man’s body.
The man didn’t even understand how he died, as he didn’t even have a chance to strike back.
Chu Ge coldly nced at the corpse on the ground, shook his head helplessly, and then turned back to the Gambling Stone Field.
By this time, Zhang Cheng’s body had already been carried into the meeting room because Jian Chunqiu had discovered something suspicious. If they had examined the body downstairs, it would have caused unnecessary panic, so Jian Chunqiu had them bring Zhang Cheng’s body upstairs.
When Chu Ge returned, Jian Chunqiu was almost done with the examination.
"Have you found out the cause of death?"
Chu Ge asked.
Jian Chunqiu nodded. "The real cause of death is at the top of the head, a sword wound. Without deep cultivation, it’s impossible to cause such an injury."
Chu Ge squinted, in their Ancient Martial Arts world, there were people who used swords, but those who used sharp swords as murder weapons were rare.
"Could it be the work of a Shadow Killer?" Chu Ge spected.
Jian Chunqiu nodded, "I think so too. By the way, did you just chase after the killer?"
Chu Ge lightly shook his head, "Those people don’t seem like the killers, but one thing is certain, they were here to seek vengeance against me, but now they can’t speak anymore."
"Oh? You dealt with all of them?"
Chu Ge nodded, "They didn’t even have a chance to strike. Such people wouldn’t be able to inflict such wounds on Zhang Cheng."
Jian Chunqiu pondered for a moment, "I think their true purpose is to sow discord between us and the Dragon n."
Chu Ge looked at Jian Chunqiu, and the two of them reached a mutual understanding.
Unspoken.
If that’s the case, I’m afraid the Dragon Group on their side has also received a corpse.
If there’s no one in the Dragon Group with sense to analyze the current situation, they’ll be easily led by the nose.
"What should we do now?"
Chu Ge asked.
"Now we can only wait."
Jian Chunqiu covered Zhang Cheng’s body with a white cloth, feeling deeply pained and regretful. Zhang Cheng was a capable worker who had saved him a lot of trouble, but now he met such an end, and as the Pavilion Master, he was powerless.
Chu Ge knew that Jian Chunqiu was deeply pained, but in the face of such circumstances, he didn’t know how to console him.
Chu Ge stepped forward, helping Jian Chunqiu cover the body with the cloth, "Uncle Jian, I know you’re heartbroken, but now is not the time for us to grieve. What we need to do now is find the killer and avenge Zhang Cheng."
Jian Chunqiu nodded, taking a deep sigh, "I just feel sorry for Zhang Cheng, that’s all."
But now he is powerless.
Zhang Cheng was taken away, and Jian Chunqiu, in low spirits, sat for a long time without speaking, and Chu Ge instructed others not to disturb him.
Gu Tong had been busy in the Gambling Stone Field, but he overheard the general details from those around.
Hepiled all this information into a text message and sent it to Dao Liu.
Momentster, Dao Liu replied with a message, "Remember, don’t let Chu Ge act rashly."
Gu Tong looked at the message and couldn’t help but roll his eyes. Could he really control Chu Ge? Besides, if his words were heeded, wouldn’t Chu Ge suspect his identity?
What’s up with Master now? Why is he getting more confused?
Gu Tong suddenly realized that telling these things to Master was a huge mistake.
Gu Tong pocketed his phone, talking to himself, "Gu Tong, you’re such a busybody!"
Let Chu Ge do as he pleases, since when have you been so concerned about his affairs?
Lin Dong coughed lightly behind him, "Cough cough, Gu Tong, I heard everything you were just mumbling."
Gu Tong’s heart skipped a beat, he coughed lightly and red back at Lin Dong, "Lin Dong, what nonsense are you talking about? When was I mumbling?"
Lin Dong stepped forward and shed a sly grin at Gu Tong, "I know you’re worried about Mr. Chu, don’t worry, I won’t tell Mr. Chu about your concern. Who’d have thought, Gu Tong, you’re actually a reserved type."
Gu Tong rolled his eyes at Lin Dong, "Pah! What nonsense are you spouting! You’re the reserved one!"
Lin Dong shrugged, "You’re wrong, I’m not reserved, I’m outspoken!"
Gu Tong: ...
Lin Zhao chuckled helplessly, "Alright, let’s get back to work. Gu Tong, we all know you care about Mr. Chu, but since you do, you should show it. That way, you seem friendlier and easier to get along with."
Lin Dong nodded approvingly, "Exactly, you’re usually so cold and distant, I never expected you to be warm-hearted."
Gu Tong was practically driven mad by them. He had just mumbled a bit, and they both overheard it. Overheard it, fine, but they even mocked him for it! It really frustrated him!
"Hey, hey, hey! You two, are you ever going to stop?"
Gu Tong feigned anger, his face darkening, ring at Lin Zhao and Lin Dong.
Seeing this, Lin Zhao and Lin Dong knew this guy couldn’t take a joke, so they stopped teasing him and went off to mind their own business.
Gu Tong watched their backs as they left, feeling a bit stifled, and as he turned around, he saw Chu Geing down the stairs.
Gu Tong gave Chu Ge a re—damn this guy!
Chu Ge was puzzled, not knowing where Gu Tong’s annoyance stemmed from. He shrugged helplessly and went to the front desk to start working.
When Nangong Man Sha arrived, the Gambling Stone Field was back to normal.
Nangong Man Sha cheerfully came to the front desk, and upon seeing Chu Ge busy with his head down, couldn’t help but giggle softly, "Mr. Chu, so you can be so diligent."
Chu Ge finally noticed Nangong Man Sha. He looked up, putting down the pen in his hand, "Miss Man Sha, what brings you here?"
Nangong Man Sha looked at Chu Ge with a bright smile. She was in particrly high spirits because everything had gone smoothly, "I’m here to see Elder Jian. Is he around?"
Chu Ge nodded, but remembering Jian Chunqiu’s mood, he didn’t let Nangong Man Sha go up to find him, "Uncle Jian is busy. If you have something, you can tell me directly."
Nangong Man Sha yfully winked at Chu Ge, "If I tell Mr. Chu, will there be a reward?"
Chu Ge was taken aback, a reward?
"Did Miss Man Sha aplish something extraordinary?"
