While Lou Qianxue was hurrying back, the Lou Family in Qingyun City was on the brink of death.
At that moment, the sounds of the massacre gradually faded. Blood flowed like rivers, and corpses piled up into a big heap. The intense stench of blood could be smelled even from outside the City Lord’s Mansion.
More and more members of the Lou Family died, leaving behind only a few. These few tried their best to survive.
“Lady!”
Suddenly, someone from the Mo Family reported to Lady Mo, “Some of the younger Lou Family members escaped from the back door, but I have already sent some men to chase after them. The only thing is that… even after searching the entire building, we can’t find any traces of Lou Qianxue!”
“What? Lou Qianxue’s not here?” Lady Mo’s expression darkened. “Go quickly! Tell the men to search more carefully. You must find Lou Qianxue!”
When the severely wounded, bloody, and faltering Lou Potian heard this, he could not help but throw his head back and laugh. “Hahaha… Find Lou Qianxue? Dream on!”
As he spoke, he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood. “Didn’t you properly investigate before attacking? Qianxue is not even in Qingyun City, and she won’t return anymore! Hahaha, you want to find Qianxue? Not in this lifetime!”
“What?” Lady Mo’s face turned ugly. She had immediately rushed over to the Lou family when she had received orders from the Prefectural Governor. Therefore, she was unaware that Lou Qianxue was not in the City Lord’s Mansion.
“Damn it!” Lady Mo cursed. She did not know what to do.
The battle in the mansion had reached its conclusion.
Apart from the silver-masked assassin, the strongest mercenary Leng Qianhan, Lou Potian, Lou Jingfeng, and the two elders, everyone else had died.
Although they were still alive, they only had half a breath left.
Since the silver-masked assassin had a special identity, the Mystic Martial realm experts from the Zhu Family restrained him instead of killing him.
Leng Qianhan was the main target of the Mystic Martial realm experts from the Zhu Family and the Prefectural Governor mansion. He was covered in wounds and was on the brink of death.
Lou Potian, Lou Jingfeng, and the other elders were not in a better state. Their robes were completely stained with blood, and their eyes brimmed with sorrow, pain, anger, and despair.
The only lucky thing for them was that their opponents did not benefit much either.
The three Mystic Martial realm experts from the Zhu Family and the two from the Prefectural Governor mansion were also severely injured. More than half of the men the Prefectural Governor mansion had lent to the Mo Family had also died.
“What’s wrong?” When Zhu Luo noticed that the situation over at Lady Mo did not seem right, he gripped his wounds and flew over.
“Sir.” Lady Mo was very respectful to the Mystic Martial realm expert. “Lou Qianxue is not in the City Lord’s Mansion. What should we do?”
“What?” Zhu Luo’s expression fell. Only the five Mystic Martial realm experts knew that what Young Master Zhu wanted was Lou Qianxue’s treasure; what Lou Xingchen wanted was to massacre the Lou family and kill Lou Qianxue.
Both aims were closely related to Lou Qianxue. However, Lou Qianxue was not even here.
“You fool, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Without Lou Qianxue, all of our efforts are wasted!” The furious Zhu Luo slapped Lady Mo.
Even though she had been slapped all of a sudden, Lady Mo did not dare to show any signs of resentment. She only fearfully suggested, “Sir, I have an idea to lure Lou Qianxue out.”
Zhu Luo glared at her. “Speak.”
Lady Mo’s eyes malevolently flashed. “As far as I know, the ones that are still alive are Lou Qianxue’s close relatives who are important to her. We can keep them alive and tie them to the main gates of Qingyun City, killing one person each day. We’ll send her a message that if she doesn’t appear, we’ll kill all her friends and family. I believe that Lou Qianxue will definitely take the bait!
