The two of them sat down in a pavilion in the garden and the servants brought them snacks and beverages right away.
Even with the snacks and beverages in front of them, neither one of them was able to stomach them. Her brows still furrowed, Gong Zixuan said to the man in front of her, “Shi Xiong Luo, Aunty Luo mentioned that your older sister and her family are in City Yan. How come I haven’t seen them?”
“My big sister…”
Taking about that person, Luo JunHao frowned slightly and his look became fierce all of a sudden. Even the qi coming from him has changed. Gong Zixuan, not knowing the details, asked in surprise, “What’s the matter, Shi Xiong Luo?”
“Xuan-er, I have almost forgotten about them until you brought them up. I need to look into them as well,” said Luo JunHao, his voice deep and his look cold.
“Shi Xiong Luo, you mean to say….” Asked Gong Zixuan in disbelief.
Seeing the look on her, Luo JunHao couldn't help but smiled bitterly. “Xuan-er, you have no idea how greedy they are. I won’t run it pass them.”
“But…” Gong Zixuan was still baffled. “They are their closest family members. How could they do that?”
“Well, we don’t know if it was them yet but I need to send someone to look into them. It better not be them, if it was….” There was a killer’s intent in Luo JunHao’s eye by the time he got to the end of his sentence.
Even though he had been in the Clan of Magical Swords for the last dozen or so years and didn’t know the Tian’s very well, but he had a pretty good idea what type of a person his older sister was since he was a little kid.
The Young Miss had always enjoyed taking what’s others since a very young age. It wasn’t a big deal when she took what belonged to him or his second sister. They were, after all, a family. Nevertheless, as long as Luo Yujie, his big sister, had an eye on what belonged to others, she was not above taking it with force. And if they wouldn’t let her have it, it was not above her to kill the person and take what she had wanted.
Naturally, her son couldn’t be that different from her. It would certainly not surprise Luo JunHao had his nephew tried to harm his family.
Thinking of that, Luo JunHao immediately got up and said, “Xuan-er, let me go make some arrangements.”
“Alright,” said Gong Zixuan as she nodded.
Luo JunHao hurried to make arrangement. He sure hope it wasn’t them, but he needed to find out for sure.
A day later.
Luo JunHao, who had been waiting for words to get back, was looking more and more somber. None of the two guards that he sent out has returned. The Tian’s were only located just outside the city limit, two hours would have been more than enough for a round trip. Even if something happened and took up some time, maybe it would have taken them up to 4 ~ 6 hours’ time.
But now, it had already been a whole day!
If they hadn’t returned yet, something must have happened!
“Elder Zhengzong, what are your thoughts?” There was only three people inside the study. Luo JunHao did not have elders from the Luo’s join in. If what he suspected was true, it would be a big issue.
Elder Zhengzong was the elder from Sacred Land Zhongyuan who came with Luo JunHao. He was here to assist, normally he’d just do what he was told.
“Mr. Luo, one way or another, we should go take a look outside of the city by ourselves.” Without knowing all the intricate details, Elder Zhengzong could only share his own thought.
Gong Zixuan gave them a look and asked, “What if they deny it when we get there.”
“We can’t just go like this. What I meant is for us to observe from a distance first.”
“The guards that Young Master Luo had sent were both martial masters. Normally speaking, they should at least be able to get away safely should something happened. The fact that they never returned was very odd,” said Elder Zhengzong with a frown.
