Chapter 140: Death Penalty!

  "Sir, I..." Su Yan opened his mouth, but tears flowed down instead.

  "What are you crying about? What happened? Who killed them? Speak up!" Xiao Yang's eyes were filled with fierce anger, his face dark and menacing.

  It's no wonder Xiao Yang was so furious. Since he became the hundred-man commander stationed in Qinglan County, casualties among his subordinates were not uncommon, and the heavy armored cavalry had been replaced batch after batch. However, all of them died on the battlefield. It was the first time they encountered someone being killed secretly in the military camp!

  Such a thing has rarely happened in the entire history of the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry, and at least Xiao Yang had never heard of it. Now that such a thing has happened under his command, how can Xiao Yang not be extremely angry!

  Su Yan shook his head and tightly closed his mouth.

  What can he say? Can he say that because of himself, two comrades were killed? He's probably afraid that if he speaks out, Xiao Yang will immediately kill him!

  However, this is not what he worries about most. What he is worried about at the moment is that beautiful girl with clear eyes.

  It's daytime now, and with the passing of this night, where is she now? Has she safely returned to the territory within Kunyu Sect?

  Xiao Yang is a strong practitioner of the eighth level of Tiger Fist, and there are many strong practitioners of the seventh level in Qinglan County. If they all come out to search for her, she may be in danger again. Once she falls into Xiao Yang's hands, it will be impossible for her to survive.

  At this time, he was still thinking about that girl, and the thoughts in his heart made Su Yan extremely ashamed. However, he couldn't help but think of her. He didn't want to provide any information about her to Xiao Yang, and would rather be beaten to death by Xiao Yang than do so.

  Su Yan cursed herself in her heart, but still kept her mouth tightly shut.

  "Damn it, you little scoundrel! You want to drive me mad, don't you? Speak up!" Xiao Yang's face turned iron-blue with rage as he bellowed at Su Yan, who remained silent.

  "What exactly happened, tell me quickly, I need to find the right target for revenge!"

  Tears flowed again in Su Yan's eyes, and she closed them tightly.

  Xiao Yang was furious and raised his palm high, just as Shi Lang Chen Song rushed in quickly.

  "Chen Song, what's going on?";

  Xiao Yang slowly let go of his hand,

  "You've been to the scene, have you found anything?"

  Chen Song is meticulous and good at deduction, so he stayed on the scene just now.

  Chen Song's face was icy cold, and he glared at Su Yan with a fierce gaze, saying in a low voice: "Report to the superior, I have made some discoveries."

  Xiao Yang shouted.

  Under the wall not far from the gate of the barracks, there were some bloodstains that could hardly be noticed if one didn't look carefully!

  Su Yan's body trembled slightly.

  Chen Song continued: "On the wall inside the wall, there are more bloodstains, but they have been washed with clean water. It's possible that it was done hastily and not thoroughly cleaned. And under the wall, there are also large patches of bloodstains, which were buried with fine sand."

  "In Su Yan's bedroom, I found these things." Chen Song said, taking out several items from his pocket and throwing them on the ground.

  Those were a few rolls of bandages stained with blood, and half a piece of women's underwear with bloodstains.

  Su Yan opened his eyes and took a glance, his face slightly pale, and he remained silent.

  Xiao Yang took a look at those bandages and furrowed his brow as well.

  Among those bandages, two of them are the standard bandages of the Kunyu Zong army, and several others are the standard bandages of the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry. The woman's undergarments were torn apart, apparently cut by a sharp blade.

  The large bed in Su Yan's bedroom had been destroyed, with marks of rope bindings on it. The ropes used should be the special ropes of my Xuanwu Heavy Cavalry.

  "Chen Gang and Liu Kun were both killed by a dagger, and the wounds on Su Yan's body were also inflicted by a dagger. The person who did it was obviously an old hand, with extremely ruthless methods!"

  "Last night, Lin Feng was stabbed, the assassin was a female tiger-shaped fist seventh heavy. According to Lin Feng's report, the assassin escaped after being seriously injured by her. Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Wulin City searched for a whole night but couldn't find her."

  I just asked Wu Ruowang and he said that Su Yan did not participate in this action the night before last, and should have been staying inside the military camp all along.

  "Chen Gang and Liu Kun were both killed with one blow, without any signs of resistance. It's clear that their opponent was far stronger than them. Look at Su Yan's injuries again, they are all minor wounds."

  Xiao Yang's face turned extremely cold: "Chen Song, tell me your judgment!"

  "It's already very clear that the female assassin who was seriously injured by Lin Feng is being hidden by Su Yan in the military camp, which is why Lin Feng and his men couldn't find her!"

  Chen Song's eyes were cold and stern as he gazed at Su Yan, gritting his teeth: "That female assassin was indeed severely injured. After flipping over the military camp wall, she had already fainted. It just so happened that Su Yan discovered her and rescued her."

  "At this time, Su Yan is doing quite well. Even if she's an assassin, we need to capture her and interrogate her thoroughly. We can't let her die so easily. At this moment, Su Yan's reaction is still normal."

  "Afterwards, Su Yan brought the female assassin back to his own room, re-bandaged her wounds and then tied her up with a specially-made rope from the Xuan Jia Re Riding Sect."

  "Unfortunately, this kid was too stupid and didn't tie the rope completely around the assassin's body, but instead tied it to the wooden bed. How could an ordinary wooden bed possibly hold a strong man of Tiger Fist Seventh Level?"

  Later, Lin Feng and others searched for the assassin but to no avail. After returning, Su Yan did not report the news of catching the assassin to Lin Feng, but instead concealed it.

  Xiao Yang looked at Su Yan with a gloomy expression, and spat out a few words from between his teeth: "Because that assassin was a woman, and a beautiful one at that! So this little scoundrel forgot that he's a knight of the Xuanwu Heavy Cavalry!"

  Chen Song let out a cold hum and continued: "Just last night, Chen Gang and Liu Kun came to find Su Yan to drink wine. When Su Yan was entertaining the two of them, the assassin took advantage of the opportunity to break free from his restraints, killed Chen Gang and Liu Kun, injured Su Yan, and then left the military camp."

  Chen Song analyzed it again and surprisingly got to the bottom of things quickly. Wu Ruo Wang listened and also nodded secretly in his heart. Even Ji Songfeng couldn't help but secretly admire this unassuming captain.

  "It should be like this!"; Xiao Yang's face was cold and stern, his sharp gaze swept over Su Yan, and he nodded slowly.

  "Sū Yán, you said it was like this!" Xiao Yang suddenly shouted loudly.

  Su Yan's tears fell like rain, shaking her head without speaking.

  "Alas, Chen Gang and Liu Kun, the two brothers, ultimately ended up in such a state, killed by their own comrades! Chen Song sighed. "I don't even know what that female assassin looks like, so charming and beautiful, she's got this kid completely infatuated, to the point where he's forgotten he's a member of the Xuan Jia Heavy Cavalry!"

  Xiao Yang coldly smiled and said: "A beauty is a calamity, indeed! However, it's not surprising that this little kid has a soft heart. If it were another young whippersnapper, they might not have acted differently either! Do you know who that female assassin is?"

  "Who is it?" Chen Song asked.

  Xiao Yang said coldly: "The precious daughter of Liu Po Tian! Either it's Liu Fei Fei or Liu Qing Wu!"

  "It's them! Chen Song's face showed a strange expression, and he shook his head, saying: "No wonder! These two sisters both have 70-80% of Chu Xuehua's looks. For someone like Su Yan, who is still young and romantic, to meet women like them... Ah! It's just a pity for Chen Gang and Liu Kun, the two brothers!"

  "Su Yan, do you have anything to say?" Xiao Yang asked in a cold voice.

  Su Yan shook her head woodenly and remained silent.

  "Get out of my sight, you little beast! I'm still treating your injuries for you!" Xiao Yang slapped Su Yan's face with a loud smack. Su Yan's face immediately swelled up, and he smiled wryly without saying a word.

  "What should we do with this little guy?" Chen Song asked.

  "No matter how many reasons there are for killing someone, there is only one outcome: death!"

  Xiao Yang said coldly, "However, Lin Feng and the others are all on vacation, so for now we can't directly enforce military law on him. Let's just imprison him in the army camp for now, and wait until Lin Feng comes back a month later to deal with it. After all, Lin Feng is the next leader of the Hunting Hawk Squad, we can't directly execute his subordinate."

  "Moreover, I will immediately report this matter to the sect! As for how to punish Liu Po Tian's daughter, whether to send someone to kill her directly, we must wait for the sect's instructions!"

  Su Yan listened and his body trembled again.

  "Yes, sir." Chen Song nodded.

  "This matter is left to you, you and Sharon stay behind to watch him. We suffered too much loss in the last battle, I really don't have any more manpower." Xiao Yang said.

  "Yes, sir!" Chen Song bowed again, and another Decurion, Sha Long, responded simultaneously.

  "Liǔ Bòtiān's daughter dares to be so reckless! It seems that Liǔ Bòtiān not only wants his son to die, but this time he also wants his daughter to die!"

  "This matter concerns the face of our sect, so no one should spread it outside. Master Wucheng, you also tell your people to keep their mouths shut. If it leaks out, don't blame me for being impolite!" Xiang Yang looked at Wu Ruowang and said.

  "Yes, sir!" Wu Pangzi hastily bowed and said.

  Xiao Yang stood up, took a look at Ji Songfeng who was speechless, and walked out in big strides. Several soldiers from the City Master's mansion lifted Su Yan onto a stretcher and quickly left with Chen Song and others.

  …………

  The Tian Nan mountain range separates the territories of the three major sects from the outside world, and in areas close to the Tian Nan mountain range, the control of the three major sects is extremely loose.

  Like the nearby towns near the Tian Nan mountain range, such as Wan Shou Town, they are not controlled by the three major sects at all.

  Because most of the people who come and go here are real strongmen. Among them, many have even crossed the Tian Nan mountain range to get here. In the eyes of these people, the strongmen of the three major sects are not worth fearing at all, and no one will care.

  Although the exotic beast blood trade is thriving here, the three major sects do not dare to collect taxes. Offending any of the intermediate sect's strongmen would bring catastrophic disaster to the sect.

  The nearest garrison of the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry to Wan Shou Town is also two hundred miles away from Wan Shou Town. A hundred-man squad of Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry is stationed here, mainly monitoring the nearby Kunyu Sect garrison and not interfering with those who enter the mountains to hunt alien beasts.

  In the morning, Lin Feng came to this military camp, left Chui Feng here, and then walked to Wan Shou Town on foot. After all, this time must be entering the mountain, bringing Chui Feng is not suitable.

  "Zhuang Lao, do you know about the Dark Night Blade and the Sanctuary Warrior?" Lin Feng's figure flew swiftly along the Grand Dao as he transmitted his voice to ask.

  "Nonsense! I'm the ancestor of assassins, how could I not know?"

  "Wulin City's Dark Night Blade assassin is really formidable! Old Zhuang, tell me about the situation with these assassination organizations!" Lin Feng said.

  "That's also impressive? You haven't seen my methods back in the day! --Forget about me. On this continent, within the underground world, the number of assassin organizations far exceeds that of sects. Among them, there are four most famous and mysterious assassin organizations: Phantom Assassins, Dark Night Blade, Blood-colored Ghost Orchid, and Sanctuary Warriors!"

  "Which of these killer organizations is a bit more formidable?" Lin Feng asked.
