Guan Ya was stunned, her first reaction was to doubt and not believe. She clicked on the post and glanced at it. The content described that Yuan Shi Tian Zun was unexpectedly attacked last night and died at home, the cause of death was unknown.
The process was not described in detail.
But the experienced official practitioners immediately understood.
Assassination!
Cause of death unknown, bizarre appearance, it must have been an assassination.
The official practitioners of Songhai Branch and even the branches in other places, after reading the content of the post, were filled with anger. They had a strong sense of identification with their colleagues being assassinated.
"Who did it? The Spirit Power Association or the Xiahou Family? Are they provoking our Five Elements Alliance?"
"It can't be the Xiahou Family. Yuan Shi Tian Zun has a B-level merit. Did the Xiahou Family go crazy and assassinate him? If they really did, the elders and the leaders of the alliance will definitely sanction the Xiahou Family."
"Are the people in Songhai Branch all useless? We can't even protect such a genius. I just took a look at the Taiyi Gate forum, and it's full of mockery towards us, saying that the Five Elements Alliance can't even protect a person."
"What does this have to do with us in Songhai? It's the people in Kangyang District who are useless."
"He died just like that? What a pity."
Guan Ya's face didn't look good. After reading a few comments, she exited the forum. She still didn't believe the content of the post.
She decided to open her contact list and dial Yuan Shi's phone number.
If the other party answered, she would laugh and tease him, asking how he could still be alive if he was dead.
If the call wasn't answered, if the call wasn't answered...
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later!"
Guan Ya's face gradually collapsed, her face turned pale. She stood still for a few seconds, then suddenly grabbed her handbag and rushed towards the stairs, stumbling and panicking.
She wanted to go to Yuan Shi's house to confirm.
As she rushed out of the glass building, about to get into the car, Guan Ya suddenly paused. She remembered that Yuan Shi's cousin, Chen Yuanjun, was the captain of the Security Division of the Kangyang District Public Security Bureau.
She immediately changed direction, stepping on her high heels, and ran towards the Public Security Bureau building.
She hurriedly entered the administrative building and asked the clerical staff at the reception desk:
"Has your captain, Chen Yuanjun, come to work today?"
The clerical staff obviously recognized Guan Ya and was somewhat surprised that she took the initiative to ask about Captain Chen. She smiled and said:
"Captain Chen is upstairs. Shall I call him down for you?"
After glancing at the female clerical staff upstairs, Guan Ya suddenly shook her head and said, "No, it's not necessary!"
Chen Yuanjun was working normally. The curious and gossiping look in the female clerical staff's eyes made Guan Ya, as a scout, immediately realize that something was wrong.
Either Chen Yuanjun didn't know about his cousin's sacrifice, or Yuan Shi was not dead.
She turned and left the Public Security Bureau building, basking in the warm sunshine. She found a quiet place, took a deep breath, and dialed Fu Qingyang's phone number.
"What's the matter!" Fu Qingyang's cold voice came through.
"Where is Yuan Shi? Is he dead or alive?" Guan Ya whispered.
After asking, she held her breath.
"I staged a death with him for a few days." Fu Qingyang's voice was as calm as ever. "I have already informed Li Dongze. Since you know, you should cooperate."
Guan Ya let out a breath and completely relaxed. "Can I ask why?"
"Your level is too low, you don't have the qualifications to know." Fu Qingyang said indifferently.
Guan Ya gritted her teeth. "I should have beaten you harder when we were kids."
"I still have work to do. Don't bother me if there's nothing else." Fu Qingyang hung up the phone.
Under the bright sunshine, Guan Ya put away her phone and her mood brightened. She carried her handbag and walked towards the glass building.
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.
Among all the officials, only she, Li Dongze, and Wang Tai knew Yuan Shi's true identity. Fu Qingyang informed Li Dongze to cooperate, but he didn't inform her, his cousin.
Fu Qingyang put down his phone, his elbows on the table, his ten fingers interlocked against his chin.
His cousin cared about Yuan Shi Tian Zun more than just a normal colleague. During the past period of time, Guan Ya often praised Yuan Shi Tian Zun in front of him, saying that this young man had talent and qualifications, and had a good mind. Fu Qingyang initially thought that this was normal admiration within limits.
And it was indeed true.
But he secretly kept an eye on Guan Ya's attitude towards Yuan Shi. Just now, he tried it out and found that his cousin's favorability towards that kid had increased another level.
This was not a good thing. The Fu family would never allow Guan Ya to be with a small character, a son-in-law chosen by her aunt, when there was a family behind him that was comparable to the Fu family.
Looking at it from another perspective, if this could stimulate his cousin's ambition, it might not be a bad thing.
Hmm, Yuan Shi might not even like her. Fu Qingyang suddenly remembered a sentence: Unlike me, who only likes women with black stockings and long legs, and has a preference for the weak.
His mouth twitched.
Guan Ya returned to her office and saw Jiang Jiwei and Teng Yuan, who were talking with serious expressions.
When they saw her coming up, Teng Yuan pushed his glasses up his nose and said in a low voice, "I've heard about Yuan Shi Tian Zun's matter. He died for the organization, he died in the line of duty. I think we should give his family some compensation."
Jiang Jiwei also looked sad. "I didn't protect him well."
Guan Ya pondered for a moment and said, "What do you think, Captain? How much is appropriate?"
Teng Yuan said in a deep voice, "Set a small target. What do you think?"
Are you crazy? No one will pay attention to you. Guan Ya's mouth twitched. "As long as you're happy, you can try to submit an application."
Having a rare day off and no professional classes in the morning, Zhang Yuanqing had a good sleep. When he woke up, he saw Little Silly running around the room with his uncle's wallet on his head, entertaining himself.
He sighed at this silly kid.
He thought, can't you find something else for me? It's either Aunt's underwear or Uncle's wallet.
If this continues, the TV station will come to our house for an interview. The headline will be:
Aunt's underwear frequently stolen, Uncle's wallet repeatedly missing. Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality? Tonight at 8 o'clock, let us enter the world of the crazy nephew Zhang Yuanqing!
In the living room, Aunt had already had breakfast and dressed up beautifully, ready to go to work.
Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback. "Are you going to be late?"Auntie poked her head out, glanced at the kitchen, and whispered, "Shush! Your hot-tempered grandma just scolded me. Don't bring up this topic again. If she hears it, she'll go on and on. It's so annoying."
She had overslept this morning, unable to wake up, and slept until half past eight, still wrapped in her blanket, only to be rudely awakened by a smack from her irritable mother.
Zhang Yuanqing studied his aunt's beautiful face. Underneath her soft eyes were heavy eye bags, but they didn't detract from her beauty. Instead, they added a touch of delicacy.
"What were you doing last night?" Zhang Yuanqing criticized, "Did you take the opportunity to practice the Great Method of Absorbing Yang and Supplementing Yin?"
Auntie spat out a "pah" and pinched her fingers like an orchid, "I was practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra!"
Zhang Yuanqing: "Then I will have to break your Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with my Dog Beating Stick Technique that I've been practicing for twenty years."
The two playfully sparred in the living room until their grandmother stormed out of the kitchen, roaring, "Get to work!!"
Jiang Yu'er sashayed out the door.
After a quick breakfast, Zhang Yuanqing returned to his room, took his wallet from the little goofball's head, pulled out three red bills, and instructed, "Pay it back."
Speaking of which, his uncle, the fool, hadn't noticed the money was missing yet. No, he probably didn't even realize his wallet was gone.
Watching the little goofball crawl out of the room, he withdrew his gaze and focused on the matter at hand.
"If the operation in three days is successful, we will indeed be one step closer to Hei Wuchang. But 'Heaven is Unjust' probably doesn't know where Hei Wuchang is hiding. It depends on what information we can get from the Spirit Inquiry."

"Fu Qingyang must know this too, but I don't know what he's thinking next."
At this moment, his phone 'dinged' with a new message.
It wasn't from the Transcendent Zhang Yuanqing. He had removed the SIM card from the "Transcendent" phone last night.
Sender: Xiao Yuan.
The phone number associated with the mailbox was a prepaid SIM card that Zhang Yuanqing had asked his cousin to help him get.
Of course, he wouldn't be so foolish as to use the name "Transcendent" to communicate with Auntie Xiao Yuan.
What information did she find out? Zhang Yuanqing's spirit perked up as he focused on reading the message:
"One of the vice presidents of the Spirit Power Association, a subordinate of the Gu King, recently put out a bounty for Hei Wuchang and his subordinates in the black market. The Gu King may have information on Hei Wuchang, but I can't find out.
"I've got the contact information of one of Gu King's subordinates. His Spirit Realm ID is 'Human Blood Bun'. His contact information is...
"The second thing, the bounty list set by the evil profession was updated yesterday. On the Saint List, Fu Qingyang and Fire God are tied for first. On the Transcendent List, the official practitioner of the Songhai branch, Transcendent, is on the list, at the bottom. But I heard that guy is already dead, probably beheaded for the bounty after the list was updated. This information should be useful to you, you can report it to your superiors."
"The third thing, Li Xianzong, a level 3 Gu Master from the Bishop's Army, single-handedly assassinated a level 4 saint from the South District branch of the Spirit Power Association a few days ago. With this single battle, his ranking can be promoted to the top five of the evil profession, Transcendent stage."
It seems like the fifty thousand was not well spent. Auntie, why don't you consider paying in kind? Zhang Yuanqing complained in his heart.
But after careful analysis, he felt that the fifty thousand was well spent.
The news of "Transcendent's death" appeared in the black market where the evil profession gathered, indicating that the information had been disseminated, and tomorrow night's operation had a better chance of success.
In addition, he also learned about the bounty list. It turns out that not only the official organizations have bounties, but the evil organizations also issue bounty lists, hunting down the elite members of the Five Elements Alliance.
He, who had cleared two levels of Night Wanderer in a row, was also on the list, although he only made a brief appearance at the bottom.
Who are you looking down on? I want to be at the top. He joked to himself.
"The first piece of information can be used well. Although 'Human Blood Bun' is from the evil profession, the enemy's enemy can also be a friend. In the matter of getting the roster, I am both an enemy and a friend with the official side."
Zhang Yuanqing had been worrying about "stealing the roster" and didn't have a clear plan. In his initial thoughts, he planned to ask the Palace Master of the Stop Killing Palace to help steal the roster.
But because Hei Wuchang disappeared and couldn't be found, he couldn't make a detailed plan and felt insecure.
Now, a bold idea suddenly popped into his head. Besides the external aid of the Palace Master of the Stop Killing Palace, he could also collude with the enemy.
Stir up the water.
The attention of the official side, Dark Night Rose, Hei Wuchang, and Gu King must all be focused on the Holy Grail. At this time, the Palace Master of the Stop Killing Palace, a master-level figure, makes a move to snatch the roster, the resistance won't be too great.
"Try to contact Gu King's people."
