Chapter 172: Unexpected News

  ♂?,,

  Haitian's eyebrows slightly furrowed upon hearing this, and he vaguely felt that this was the question Weizi Ming most wanted to know, but such a question seemed to have no particular significance, which left him perplexed.

  "Those who have reached the Xiantian realm, their daily movements are all recorded. And during the time when the Rosethorn Ruins opened, almost all of the Xiantian strongmen left Fanhai City. As for whether there were any strongmen hiding from Fanhai City's eyes, I don't know. On the surface, Haitian is cooperating, but whether he is truly cooperating or not, no one knows."

  "Is that so!" Wei Ziming didn't get the answer he wanted, and suddenly felt a slight disappointment. As for whether Haitian was telling the truth, this was not something he could know.

  "I can't tell if what you're saying is true or not!" Wei Ziming said, pausing for a moment before continuing, "So, the next question, if you answer correctly, everyone will be happy. If you can't come up with an explanation, then one of your body parts will be gone."

  "I know some things are not necessarily known, but I don't care about these, so it's all up to luck now." Wei Ziming was indeed learning and using at the same time, his tone was flat, but the threatening meaning was very clear.

  "How can this be?" Hai Tian's face changed instantly upon hearing the words, although Wei Zi Ming didn't say anything about any components, but thinking back to Luo Qing's previous threats, he always felt a chill down his spine.

  "There's nothing that can't be done, as I'm now the fish on the chopping board and you're the knife." Wei Ziming said with an unchanged expression.

  "I'll repeat the question I asked earlier, has there been any unusual person appearing in Fanhai City recently?"

  Whether he can keep his parts intact depends on his answer. Wei Ziming obviously didn't believe what Hai Tian said, so he asked again.

  Haitian heard this, his eyelids twitched slightly, and his face looked even more unpleasant, revealing his inner unrest. However, having lowered his head once before, it was much easier for him to do so a second time.

  "Jin Ruo's people from the Wu family appeared in Fanhai City, at the time of the Rosethorn Ruins' opening. The two innate experts leading the team followed the crowd to the Pirate Island, but their subordinates stayed in Fanhai City."

  "The people of Wu's family are quite mysterious and strange in their actions. They didn't seem to be heading towards the ruins of Rosethorn, but rather as if they were searching for someone!"

  They had obtained a large number of trivial intelligence reports from the city master's mansion regarding population movements, household registration and disputes among civilians.

  "Because Wu's family is one of the top wealthy families in Jinxiang, we were willing to send people to help, but were rejected in the end."

  Because lies can't stand scrutiny, Hai Tian doesn't dare tell lies.

  However, sometimes people's emotions are abnormally complicated. Hai Tian is one of them. He is now worried about how Wei Zi Ming will judge whether he is telling the truth, rather than whether what he says is true or not. So in the end, he added a sentence.

  "This is the only thing I know has something fishy about it!"

  This was not the answer Wei Ziming wanted to know, but after all, Wu Jia of Jin Rong Country was the mortal enemy of the Wei family, so this could also be considered an unexpected gain, although it was not good news.

  "Hmm!" Wei Ziming's emotions were somewhat unbalanced, but he didn't show it. He casually opened his mouth to ask, "I heard that the two people leading the Wu family team are innate experts. Now that the Rosethorn Ruins matter has been settled, have they returned?"

  "One person has returned, but another person hasn't" Upon hearing this, Hai Tian suddenly felt a sense of relief, and at the same time thought that their target was indeed the Wu family. Although he found it quite puzzling, he didn't ask any further questions.

  "Huh? One person has returned?" Inside the Rosetta Gate ruins, Wei Ziming had previously encountered two people from the Wu family and a fierce conflict had occurred, resulting in both of the Wu family members losing their lives. So when he heard that one person had returned, his face suddenly revealed an expression of astonishment.

  "Describe him!" Wei Ziming continued to ask, feeling puzzled.

  "That man is called Wu Kuanhua, his age is similar to mine, but his cultivation has already reached the Xiantian realm. It's said that he is deeply favored by the old ancestor of the Wu family and has been internally designated as the successor of this generation of the Wu family."

  Haitian thinks Weiziming's goal is the people of Wu's family, which makes him feel puzzled at the same time, but he is very happy to reveal the information of Wu's family to Weiziming, because Wu's family has a lot of power in the alliance of many countries, and the pirate force is against it, no doubt making an egg hit a rock.

  Upon hearing this, Wei Ziming's mind stirred slightly as he recalled the events within the Rosethorn Ruins. At that time, although he had killed Wu Kuan with a single strike, there was no corpse left behind. He had felt a slight sense of puzzlement back then, but hadn't thought much of it.

  "How much do you know about the Wu family's ancestor?" As for the Wu family, Wei Ziming didn't understand much either, he only knew that the Wu family was the archenemy of the Wei family, so he took the opportunity to ask the question that came to mind.

  "I actually don't know much about the Wu family, it's just that when someone from the Wu family came to Fanhai City, I heard some information from Grandpa"

  It is said that more than 600 years ago, Wu Jia Lao Zu's cultivation had already broken through the Xian Tian Three Realms and reached a higher realm. As for today, 600 years later, I estimate that it's not just some related big shots who don't know about Wu Jia Lao Zu's true strength. The more Wei Zi Ming asked, the more Hai Tian was willing to play dumb, until now he could be certain that Wei Zi Ming's target was indeed the Wu family.

  Upon hearing this, Wei Ziming let out a faint sigh and silently wondered to himself, "Why is the old ancestor of the Wu family so fixated on the 'Toad Stove'?"

  "One last question!" Wei Ziming pulled out a painting from his spatial ring, and the painting depicted a spirited young man, who was exactly Xiao Ge, the target of Wei Zimming's trip.

  "Do you know this person or have seen him somewhere?" Wei Ziming pointed at the person in the painting and asked.

  "I don't know him!" Haitian scrutinized the person in the painting for a moment before speaking bluntly.

  Wei Ziming's eyebrows furrowed instantly upon hearing this, his discontent fully revealed.

  "I really didn't know, if it were in the past, a young and extraordinary talent with an unusual aura came to Fanhai City, I would have definitely noticed. However, recently there have been many things going on, and I, Fanhai City, put all my energy into those innate powerful beings." Haitian hastily explained.

  Wei Ziming felt extremely disappointed, but he didn't make things difficult for Hai Tian, only slightly shaking his head.

  "When are we going to collect the ransom?" Ha Tian let out a slight sigh of relief, knowing that Wei Ziming had no more questions to ask, and hastily spoke up.

  Wei Ziming naturally heard Hai Tian's implicit tone: when will he let him go.

  "As soon as Fan Haicheng brings the ransom, I will let him go." Without finding any information about Xiao Ge, Wei Ziming spoke with great dissatisfaction.

  "Hmm! They should have left some signs or contact information on the dock, right?" Haitian seemed to ignore Weizi Ming's dissatisfaction, and his tone implied: they will go to contact me in Fanhai City.

  "Got it! Luo Qing left his grandfather's token at the dock, so Fang Hai City will take the initiative to find Old Pirate Luo." Suddenly, Wei Ziming seemed to remember something and replied readily.

  Hearing this, Hai Tian let out a thorough sigh of relief.

  "However! There's some bad news I need to tell you, Luo Qing has run away from home." Wei Ziming continued.

  "That's right! Now my grandfather can't find me" said Luo Qing with a smile.

  "What?" Hai Tian's face suddenly turned green upon hearing this.
