"Little cousin, could it be that you know that boy?" Wang Quanfa, seeing the situation, immediately asked in shock.

"Yes, of course I know him. Even if that boy were to turn to ashes, I would still recognize him, because it was he who killed my son, Tiance." Wang Cui'e, as if she had gone mad, raised her head and let out a mournful roar.

"Miss, please calm down. In this vast world, there are many strange things. Perhaps that person just uses a combat technique similar to Lu Tianyu, but is not the same person. Why don't we ask Elder Hu about the boy's appearance first?" At this moment, Wang Xi suddenly spoke slowly.

Wang Xi did not believe that Lu Tianyu was still alive, because under the explosive power of over a hundred Tiger Roar Pills, even he would not have been able to escape, let alone Lu Tianyu, who was only at the late-stage Warrior realm.

"Right, Elder Wang is correct. Elder Hu, please describe the boy's appearance in detail." Hearing this, Wang Cui'e gradually calmed down and looked at Elder Hu.

"Sure, Miss. That person is about seventeen or eighteen years old. His appearance is not particularly handsome, but he is exceptionally refined and weak, like a scholar..." Elder Hu did not dare to be negligent and immediately described Lu Tianyu's appearance in detail.

The more she listened, the more difficult it became for Wang Cui'e to maintain her composure.

When Elder Hu finished his last word, Wang Cui'e screamed again as if she had lost her mind: "That's right, that's right, it's that little beast, it must be him. I never thought that little beast would have such a strong fate and still be alive. Elder Wang, what should I do? What should I do?"

Lu Tianyu was like a nightmare deep in Wang Cui'e's heart, a nightmare that would never wake up. As long as Lu Tianyu was alive, Wang Cui'e could not eat or sleep in peace.

"Miss, please calm down!" Seeing this, Wang Xi was immediately alarmed and quickly waved his hand, sending a thread of combat energy into Wang Cui'e's body, sealing all her major acupoints.

Wang Cui'e immediately fell limp into Wang Xi's arms, but her eyes remained wide open, filled with intense fear and shock.

Wang Xi knew that if Wang Cui'e continued to act so madly, she would truly become insane. He needed to let her calm down first.

"From what you've said, that boy must be Lu Tianyu. But I really can't understand how a late-stage Warrior could possibly survive the explosion of over a hundred Tiger Roar Pills." Wang Xi's old face instantly turned as dark as water, as if he was talking to himself or to Elder Hu and the others.

"Wang Elder, since that boy is still alive, I hope you can assist the experts from my manor to capture him and his accomplices, and bring their heads to offer in memory of my son. Will Wang Elder be willing to help with this?" Wang Quanfa, unwilling to listen to their rambling, immediately said through gritted teeth.

"No problem. Elder Hu, can you tell me about the white-robed man who saved Lu Tianyu?" Hearing this, Wang Xi immediately nodded without hesitation. They had been ordered to come here to kill Lu Tianyu, and since he was still alive, they had not completed their mission and could not return to the Wang family. Therefore, they had to continue hunting Lu Tianyu.

"That white-robed man..." As soon as Elder Hu said this, he was immediately reminded of the terrifying scenes involving the white-robed man, and his body trembled violently, his face turning deathly pale, unable to continue.

He had been thoroughly frightened.

"Hu Bing, what's wrong with you? I asked you to go and kill the murderer, but you found countless excuses and refused to go. Now, just by asking you to describe the white-robed man, you are so scared. What use do I have for you, a waste of space?" Wang Quanfa, seeing this, could not help but roar in anger.

"Sir, I am not a coward, but that white-robed man is truly terrifying. I cannot detect his cultivation level, and just one word from him can make my soul tremble. In front of him, I have no power to resist and no desire to fight. Please forgive me, sir!" Hu Bing immediately lowered his head, his eyes filled with intense fear, and muttered.

"It's normal that you, a late-stage War Master, cannot detect his strength. Quickly, tell me in detail about the white-robed man. With me taking the lead, there will be no problem." Wang Xi, hearing this, immediately glanced at Hu Bing with disdain and said slowly.

"Yes, I am useless. I will tell you. That man has a fair face and red lips, and his appearance is more beautiful than a woman's. His voice is very calm..." Elder Hu, of course, heard the sarcasm in Wang Xi's words, immediately gritted his teeth, and thought to himself, since you want to die, I will help you. You talk so righteously now, but I hope you don't end up like a frightened dog later.

Therefore, he no longer hid and described the white-robed man in detail: "... The most distinctive feature of the white-robed man is that when he gets angry, he smiles. The more he smiles, the more intense his killing intent becomes. Young Master Wang was killed because he angered the white-robed man. With just one finger, the white-robed man made Young Master Wang explode and die."

After saying this, Hu Bing sighed deeply, still feeling the lingering fear. No matter what, he dared not face the white-robed man again.

"Oh? This person is quite interesting. Do you know where he and Lu Tianyu are now?" Wang Xi, hearing this, immediately laughed coldly, clearly not taking the white-robed man seriously.

"Lu Tianyu was injured by my Death Seizing Demon Claw and is not suitable for long travel. Therefore, I speculate that they are still hiding in Lihua City." Hu Bing immediately said slowly.

"Since that's the case, please have Second Master immediately dispatch the experts from the manor to search for their hiding place. Once we find them, I will ensure they have no way out." Wang Xi thought for a moment and immediately looked at Wang Quanfa.

"Rest assured, I have already dispatched all the experts from the manor to search the entire city. We will have news soon." Wang Quanfa immediately replied.

"Ha ha, very good. I will wait here." Wang Xi, hearing this, immediately laughed arrogantly, looking very confident.

"Second... Second Master, I have found out that the two are staying at Yunlai Inn in the city." At this moment, a servant, out of breath, rushed into the hall and shouted joyfully.

"Really?" Wang Quanfa, hearing this, immediately stood up, his eyes shining with excitement, and stared at the servant.

"Yes, Second Master. One of them is wearing a white robe and has an exceptionally handsome appearance, making him easy to recognize. To ensure there was no mistake, I disguised myself as a servant at Yunlai Inn and served tea to the white-robed man, confirming that he is indeed the real murderer of Young Master." The servant immediately said loudly.

"Good, Xiao Wu, go to the steward and collect the reward of a hundred taels of gold." Wang Quanfa immediately said loudly.

"Yes, thank you, Second Master, thank you, Second Master." The servant, overjoyed, his voice trembling, immediately rushed out of the hall to find the steward and collect the reward. With so much gold, his family of three would be well-off for life. How could he not be happy?

"Wang Senior, since we have found the real murderer, please take care of the next steps." Wang Quanfa immediately looked at Wang Xi, extremely excited.

"Second Master, rest assured. I will go and take the heads of those two boys." With that, Wang Xi immediately moved, leaving only a shadow behind and disappearing without a trace.

"You all follow me." Wang Quanfa, still not fully reassured, immediately waved his hand, leading the experts from the manor straight to Yunlai Inn.

Hu Bing deliberately lagged behind the group. After leaving the hall, he immediately slipped away when no one was paying attention. He did not want to go to his death.

As for Wang Cui'e, she was still sealed and was taken by a maid to rest in the back hall.

This time, the Wang family had mobilized all their forces, including the several experts brought by Wang Cui'e. A group of over a hundred people marched in grand procession towards Yunlai Inn.

"Whoosh," a black shadow quickly cut through the night, like a meteor, landing at the entrance of Yunlai Inn, and strode into the inn.

This person was none other than Wang Xi, who had arrived first.

"Sir, are you here to stay? I'm sorry, our inn is fully booked. Please come back another day." The innkeeper, about to close for the night, immediately said apologetically upon seeing Wang Xi enter.

"I am here to find someone. Where are the white-robed man and the injured boy staying?" Wang Xi immediately asked sternly.

"Sir, they are staying in rooms No. 1 and No. 2 on the second floor, east side." The innkeeper, having already received a bribe from the Wang family's servant, immediately answered truthfully.

"Good, you are dismissed. Close the door." With that, Wang Xi immediately moved, quickly rushing up to the second floor and heading towards the east side.

Reaching room No. 1, Wang Xi stood at the door, immediately raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and fiercely punched the door.

"Boom" With a deafening sound, the door collapsed, and a figure in a white robe came into view.

But the white-robed man was still sitting cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, unmoving, seemingly unaware of the door's collapse.

"Boy, was it you who killed the young master of the Wang family?" Wang Xi, with a grim face, strode into the room and roared at the white-robed man.

The white-robed man's eyes finally slowly opened, but strangely, he did not get angry at Wang Xi's intrusion. Instead, a smile slowly spread across his face.

"Hmph, you want to kill, right? I will send you to the afterlife." Wang Xi, seeing this, immediately remembered Hu Bing's words. It seemed that the white-robed man's smile indicated he had killing intent. He immediately let out a cold snort and charged at the white-robed man like lightning.

"Step back!" The white-robed man's smile grew wider, and a strange red light flashed in his eyes. His mouth opened slightly, and he softly uttered two words.

"Boom" These two words, though spoken calmly, sounded like a thousand thunderclaps to Wang Xi. His chest felt as if hit by a massive rock, and he flew backward like a straw dummy, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood as he flew.

"Thud" Wang Xi drew a bloody arc in the air and finally landed heavily on the street outside the inn.

At this moment, Wang Quanfa was leading the group, and they saw something fall from the sky in front of them. Upon recognizing what had landed, everyone's faces changed.

What had landed was Wang Xi, but at this moment, he was a bloody mess, his eyes dull and lifeless, barely breathing.
