Semua Bab Martial Dragon Emperor S3 (fire emperor): Bab 71 - Bab 80

“Hey, looks like we’ve failed!” said the merchant who had arrived in the city, but they had indeed failed in the plan they had devised themselves. The other merchants nodded in agreement; they had indeed failed, but it didn’t matter because they had already discussed it with the person who wanted the item. Besides, they’d already obtained everything they needed for their trade; you could say that a single failure wouldn’t stop the money from coming their way. Of course, they didn’t care about the deaths of the people on the train either; in their eyes, those lives were a mere trifle compared to their money. “This time we managed to get away using a bit of a sneaky trick, but after this it’ll be hard for us to get away. Luckily, I’d already made a copy of the item on the train, so that guy was satisfied even though it was just a copy!” said another, feeling that his plan had succeeded and that if he hadn’t acted, they might not only have lost the money but could have even had their he

“Captain, this is a major problem! The merchants’ deaths are raising questions among our superiors. None of the women who served them realized they were dead!” said the soldier, who seemed confused about how the perpetrator had moved. They had already checked the roof but found no signs of it being breached; thus, in one case, it was certain the killer had entered the room, but in the others, the victims died from poison whose source they themselves did not know. The absence of any objects or needles at the crime scene made it impossible for them to find evidence of how the perpetrator had acted. “This is going to be tough! The victims were major merchants in this city; if we can’t find evidence of their deaths, our superiors will question our performance!” He was also worried about the consequences he might face for failing to determine the cause of these deaths. Although, in truth, he himself was pleased by the deaths of the merchants who always raised prices on the city’s resident

“No evidence against that man? Wait, have you even investigated him?” the man asked in astonishment. Wasn’t it Tian Sen who did all that? Then why did that man come to this city? And even though they’d received information that Tian Sen had disappeared on the second night, they still found no trace to suggest that Tian Sen was the one who killed him. In fact, almost everyone who got involved in the case ultimately failed because they were convinced that the young man hadn’t done anything. And besides, with the symbol on his hand, as the lead investigator, how could he possibly dare to accuse Tian Sen? Of course, he didn’t tell this man about Tian Sen’s identification mark, because he knew the young man’s arrival in town wasn’t just over some trivial matter. “Sir, I really can’t help you anymore. But as someone who’s always helped you, I’ll give you one piece of advice that might upset you a little. Don’t get into trouble with that young man at the brothel! Or, as long as he’s here, d

“Ah, we’re all grateful to you, young master.” Tian Sen couldn’t accept their thanks; it was clear they were just using him as bait. He already knew that the person they were actually targeting was the city ruler, and the man he had killed was also connected to the city ruler. Moreover, there was a possibility that the city ruler was still a member of the royal family, since they would need a strong reason to arrest him. The man explained that there was a possibility the city ruler wanted to arrest Tian Sen; all Tian Sen had to do was let himself be captured by them. Hearing this, Tian Sen immediately felt a surge of anger—not fight back? Not putting up a fight wasn’t Tian Sen’s style; how could he lose to such weaklings? It would be the same as humiliating himself in front of his enemies. The man standing before Tian Sen warned him that if he refused to cooperate, he would inform Tian Sen’s parents immediately that very day. Consequently, We Yan might have to mobilize the full might

Young women whom he kidnapped and turned into sex slaves or sold to nobles who craved the company of young women. “You’re truly cruel, Mayor!” said Tian Sen, opening his eyes and glaring coldly at the mayor, who was startled when Tian Sen suddenly opened his eyes while he was in the middle of something. “You… are awake?” asked the mayor, looking at Tian Sen in confusion. It was clear that there had been no signs that Tian Sen was awake just a moment ago, but why did he now see the young man suddenly open his eyes just as he let his guard down for a moment? The soldiers were also startled; they had been guarding Tian Sen since nightfall and hadn’t noticed the young man opening his eyes. It was clear that he had been waiting for the mayor to arrive before finally opening his eyes at that very moment. “That’s right, I’ve been awake for a long time. And do you really think restraints like these can hold me? You pathetic creature!” CRACCKKKK.. BOOOOOMMM… The chains binding Tian Se
