Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1464 (One Thousand Four Hundred and Sixty Four) Source

Seeing his reaction like this, Tie Hongyan felt it was abnormal and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tie Jinjue said, "It's very dangerous! When I went out this time, I heard people talking about Jingxi Mountain. There is a Jingxi Taoist priest there, and no one dared to provoke him for a long time. Not long ago, two people went there to look for the snow-cold grass, but only one person came back. The one who came back said that the other person disappeared on Jingxi Mountain. He also said that Jingxi Taoist priest told him that if anyone else goes there to look for the snow-cold grass, they will not be able to leave Jingxi Mountain alive."

Tie Hongyan's heart trembled, and the fire of anxiety burned even more fiercely. She hoped that what Tie Jinjue heard was not true, so she asked: "Is the source of this information reliable?"

Tie Jinjue said: "I don't know whether it is reliable or not. Many people in the place I went to knew about this matter. They said that the two people who went to Jingxi Mountain were local people. Only the locals knew more about this matter. When they talked about it with people from other places, they generally said they had never heard of it."

Tie Hongyan said: "I hope it's false!"

"I also hope it's fake." Tie Jinjue said. At this time, Tie Jinjue remembered that Tie Wandao sent Wu Xunsheng to take care of Tie Hongyan after he was injured, so he asked: "Where is Wu Xunsheng?"

Tie Hongyan said: "He went to Jingxi Mountain."

"What?" Tie Jinjue asked, "Him?"

"Yeah." A hint of sadness flashed in Tie Hongyan's eyes.

"Is there anyone else?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"Yes. My father sent some top masters to go with him." Tie Hongyan said.

Tie Jinjue asked: "Did the clan leader ask Wu Xunsheng to go?"

"Yes." Tie Hongyan said.

"Why must he go?" Tie Jinjue was puzzled. "I don't know why either." Tie Hongyan replied. After that, she immediately asked what she wanted to ask Tie Jinjue that day: "Uncle, do you know about the disappearance of a large number of blue-armored people in Tiecang Court?"

“I haven’t heard of it.” Tie Jinjue said.

"I have sent someone to investigate secretly. The day before yesterday, I went to Hongfeng Hall to find my uncle just to talk about this matter. At that time, I didn't know anything about the situation, and I wanted to ask my uncle whether he knew about it before making a decision. After learning that my uncle was out, I felt that the matter could not be delayed, so I secretly sent someone to investigate." Tie Hongyan said.

"How's the investigation going?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"From the day the investigation was ordered... I started lying here and have not received the results of the investigation yet. However, I also learned some information through other methods," said Tie Hongyan.

"What's going on?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"Someone captured the blue-armored people to practice their skills, and I used the same method as before to transfer some of the blue-armored people I found away." Tie Hongyan said. Then she said, "Uncle, there is something... This is what I have never told anyone other than you that I saved the blue-armored people, but now, in addition to you, other people in Tiecang Court also know that I saved the blue-armored people."

Tie Jinjue suddenly became nervous and asked, "Ah? Who knew? How did they know? Were you not careful enough when you did it and were discovered?"

Tie Hongyan said: "I will not be careless, uncle, don't be nervous. Someone has used kung fu to 'see' what I did."

Tie Jinjue asked, "What kind of Kung Fu?"

Tie Hongyan replied: "The art of detecting hidden things. I wonder if my uncle has heard of it."
