Chapter 3287: Chapter 3287: Are We Really Going to Live Here?

All dead? How is that possible? This time, the mission to chase down the fleeing townsfolk was meant to send a harsh warning, to let the people of Rock City know that those who betray their masters will meet a grim fate.

That’s why so many people were sent out this time, almost half of his division.

Even if those townsfolk had extraordinary skills, it’s impossible for them to kill so many people; unless someone helped them.

"Explain to me clearly, what’s the real situation?"

"Leader, we aren’t sure of the exact situation yet. However, the people we lost were all poisoned before they were killed. It seems a powerful alchemist had a hand in killing them."

The subordinate replied in a timid voice.

"A powerful alchemist? Haha."

The leader let out a cold laugh, looking at the person in front of him as if viewing a joke.

Even if he were a fool, he knew it was impossible. Who were those people? They were the ones he sent out. How could he not know?

Even if they weren’t elites, they had a cultivation base. Could they be killed by an alchemist so easily? Besides, they were all killed at once, with no one left to report back?

This isn’t child’s play, is it?

"Do you think I’ll believe such nonsense?"

"Uh."

The subordinate was at a loss for words.

He wasn’t sure if the leader believed him, but that’s genuinely what he thought.

"Leader, although I don’t know who did it, according to those guarding the city gate, a small group of people entered the city today. They didn’t look like they were from a Sect, but the aura of the two driving the horse carriage seemed like they came from a Sect."

Hearing this, the leader narrowed his eyes.

So, were the people from the Sects the ones who killed so many under his command?

"Immediately investigate. I want to know where those people are now."

Daring to attack his people, and so many at once, there’s no way he would let them go. These people must die, whether or not they were involved!

"Yes, leader."

The subordinate responded, turned, and left.

After leaving the courtyard, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the leader didn’t take out his anger on him; otherwise, he would have been the one to suffer a miserable death.

He still didn’t understand who on earth could have killed so many of their comrades all at once.

It seemed unlikely that the people who entered the city could have done it. With just one beast cart and two horse carriages, how many people could they have? Yet, they managed to poison so many of his people?

But the investigation had to be done. What if they really were the culprits?

At the very least, if it wasn’t them, and the leader held them accountable, they had no choice but to blame those people.

If those people don’t die, death will surely come to him.

...

Inside the newly vacated courtyard, Qian Yizheng was the first to walk in.

"Are we really going to live here?"

Min Yi seemed uncertain. The courtyard was quite large but completely empty, with nothing in it.

If they were going to stay there, they’d need at least a few beds, or they’d have nowhere to sleep. Also, although they still had food, they’d prefer to have a hot meal, right?

"We’ll make do for now. Once we’ve settled in, you can walk around the city, find a family who’s moving out, and bring their beds back." Qian Yizheng said.

If someone is moving, they usually don’t take their beds with them. Items of value are what they take, not beds.
