It was obvious that the Four Poison Hall intended to handle this matter privately.
As the main disciple of Ma Bomeng, Chen Chongyue naturally became involved in the search for the murderer.
Today’s alley fight made him wonder if it was related to the grandmaster who killed Tan Yuejin.
Walking into the alley, the cracked ground and the broken walls made Chen Chongyue frown.
This scene simply didn’t look like a fight between martial artists, but rather should be described as beasts battling here; the destructiveness was no less than that of professional machinery.
Those killed by Wang Longhu had their bodies laid side by side by the officers.
Once Chen Chongyue had viewed the scene, they would be sent back to the station for forensic examination.
At this moment, one of the bodies caught Chen Chongyue’s attention: it was Sodaimura Yujiro, with a cross-shaped spear in his chest.
As the largest martial artist force in Vietnam, the Four Poison Hall was also a major power in Southeast Asia.
Naturally, they’ve had contact with the martial arts world of Japan Island. Sodaimura Yujiro and Yagyu Ito were both familiar acquaintances of Chen Chongyue.
However, Yagyu Ito was brutally shot in the head by Wang Longhu, leaving him unrecognizable; even his own mother couldn’t identify him, let alone Chen Chongyue.
Thus, the only one he could recognize was the deceased Sodaimura Yujiro.
"An iconic figure of modern extreme karate died here..." Chen Chongyue promptly instructed the officers following him, "Bring the photo of the injured who was sent to the hospital."
An officer quickly handed over a phone, and Chen Chongyue saw in the album the unconscious Cyan Dragon Mount Tai.
"Interesting, very interesting. Even Japanese experts are involved; it seems this time we might be able to communicate with the Heaven and Earth Alliance." Chen Chongyue revealed a mysterious smile, then took out his phone to dial a number he hadn’t called for a long time.
Soon, a hoarse voice came from the other end of the line.
"Moshi moshi, Mr. Chen, what’s the sudden matter?" Google seaʀᴄh Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt
"Mr. Xiaogong, Sodaimura Yujiro and Cyan Dragon Mount Tai are dead, on my territory; I wonder if you are interested in acquiring them." Chen Chongyue said in a low voice.
The other end of the phone fell into silence before replying after a long time.
"The weapon that killed Sodaimura Yujiro was Yagyu Ito’s cross-shaped spear. I can’t determine it at the moment, but perhaps among the many dead at the scene, one could be Mr. Liu Sheng." Chen Chongyue continued.
Silence for three seconds.
The hoarse voice on the other end suddenly carried a hint of excitement.
"Five hundred thousand US dollars for each; keep them safe for me, and I’ll send someone to Vietnam to contact you."
"No, no, no!" Seeing the other party take the bait, Chen Chongyue immediately shook his head in refusal.
"Mr. Xiaogong, I don’t want your money. I just want to ask you to help me with something. If you’re willing, I’ll not only give you these three bodies, but also an additional million US dollars."
"Our Four Poison Hall has recently encountered some trouble. My fifth uncle has died, killed by a true Huajin. My master said everything happened within ten moves,
now that person is likely still planning to go after my master and Uncle Qiao. I need you and your brother to come to Vietnam and assist."
"Deal, Mr. Chen. I don’t want money, either; as a reward, after the task is completed, you will give me Tan Yuejin and the Huajin grandmaster’s bodies."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Chongyue took a deep breath.
Heaven and Earth Alliance has five elders. Aside from holding immense assets, one requirement is to be a disciple of an ancient martial arts school.
Yagyu Ito was one of them, and the Xiaogong Clan, represented by Xiongong Chuanben, was also one of them.
Furthermore, Xiongong Chuanben’s brother, the patriarch of the Xiaogong Clan, ’Xiaogong Huangquanfeng’, was a master far superior to Yagyu Ito.
A master who had already surpassed the level of Huajin six years ago.
With this man’s assistance, dealing with Wang Longhu would become much more stable.
"Within three days, turn the entire Zhiming City upside down inch by inch; I refuse to believe that we can’t find the murderer. A Huajin grandmaster cannot simply become a mole and burrow underground to hide."
Chen Chongyue murmured to himself, concluded the photo session, and headed back to his Rolls-Royce, driving towards the hospital where Cyan Dragon Mount Tai was being treated.
He still wanted to see Cyan Dragon Mount Tai one last time; if everything went smoothly, it might even result in gaining another formidable ally against Wang Longhu.
