Chapter 557: Chapter 557: Di Yelei’s Counterattack, County Magistrate Su’s Horror!
Right beside him lay a naked female body!

The body was none other than his anxiously sought-after niece, Cailian!

Just as he had ordered people to do, Cailian was **** all over her body and a knife was stuck into her chest.

Blood ran down from her eyes, mouth, and ears, sending shivers down anyone’s spine just by looking at her.

But that wasn’t the most important thing. His hand was still resting on a bountiful part of her body, and an unbearable smell kept wafting off of her.

Her eyes were wide open, her gray irises staring straight and unblinking at him!

Just like when he had stabbed her in the chest with his own hands.

“Ah! ——”

He tumbled and crawled off the head of the bed, unable to contain his fear, crying out loud.

“Help! Help! Help, help! Someone come quickly… ”

Soon, hurried footsteps and shouts of surprise came from outside.

“Over here! Hurry, hurry! It’s His Lordship’s voice!”

“Quickly, go see what happened? Has something happened to His Lordship?”

“Let’s go in! Everyone, break down the door! Quick, save His Lordship… ”

Bang! Bang, bang!

After several forceful blows, the door was finally broken down.

“Lord, how are you? You… ”

The door swung wide open, revealing the naked body lying next to County Magistrate Su, exposed for everyone to see!

The crowd exchanged glances, unsure how to react.

Fortunately, a runner suddenly remembered the most important question.

“Ah! Where’s His Lordship?”

Everyone hurriedly searched, only to find Su County Magistrate trembling under the table.

“Over here, over here! My Lord, please come out!”

“Your Honor, let us help you out… ”

The group of governmental office’s runners coaxed and dragged Su County Magistrate from under the table.

At the moment, Su County Magistrate was in shambles, his hair disheveled, his white inner clothes stained with blood, and his trembling hands were also full of blood…

“My Lord, what happened? You and your niece… ”

Could it be that something happened between them, so he killed her in the end?

A hint of uncertainty flashed through the eyes of the governmental runners.

“Bastard!”

Seeing his current situation, could Su County Magistrate not know that he had fallen into someone’s trap?

But Di Yelei had already been escorted out of Macheng County, and it was unknown how far he had traveled by now. Who would have done this to him, using such underhanded tactics?

A smiling face flashed through his mind, but he shook his head with all his might: Impossible! It absolutely couldn’t be her!

He was enraged and ashamed, and raised his hand to slap the man beside him.

Slap!

A loud smack left the runner dazed.

“Your Honor, you… ”

“You worthless fools, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get rid of the body! Throw it into the burial mound!”

“Yes, Your Honor.”

Everyone hung their heads, concealing their inexplicable feelings.

The group clumsily tried to carry Cailian away.

“What are you all busy doing?”

A sudden voice came from the doorway, and everyone turned around.

Di Yelei and Zuo Xingyu walked in, one after the other, just in time!

As everyone backed away, countless pairs of eyes focused on the embarrassed County Magistrate Su in the middle.

…

Dawn was approaching!

A streak of morning glow broke through the thick clouds, finally revealing a smiling face.

Liu Sisi took advantage of the darkness, left the manor and walked up a nearby hill, gazing towards Macheng County.

She was waiting for the final result to arrive.

As expected, it didn’t take her long to see a white light streaking across the sky, pointing skyward from the direction of Macheng County! Slowly, the white light in that part of the sky exploded, shining as brilliantly as a fire tree and silver flowers.

“They actually initiated the third contingency plan? County Magistrate Su, you deserve to die!”

Liu Sisi muttered to herself.

“Bring them here!” she shouted loudly.

A figure suddenly appeared out of thin air and immediately knelt on one knee: “Miss.”

“Order them that since Su County Magistrate’s eye-opening trick is useless, destroy it for me! I don’t want it to be an eyesore!”

A good man will be bullied, and a good horse will be ridden!

She had originally intended to give them a quick death, but now she had changed her mind!

She was going to play with them slowly until they died!

Enjoy a game of cat and mouse!

“Yes! I will order them to do so.”

“Remember, do it cleanly and smoothly, and don’t let anyone see anything unusual.”

“Yes, Miss!”

“By the way, who are the leaders of your Li Sect?”

Liu Sisi suddenly asked an extra question, stopping the figure who was about to turn around.

The figure paused and looked back: “This… Miss, I cannot say, it’s better for you to ask the heir yourself.”

“If you don’t say, it doesn’t matter!”

Liu Sisi suddenly lost interest, got up, and turned to walk away.

It didn’t matter if these people didn’t want to talk. The next time she saw Nan Tianzong, she would definitely dig out the truth from his mouth!

…

A fast horse on an 800-mile express run galloped past on the official road!

Ahead was a convoy of officers transporting a prisoner cart. Each of them carried a big blade and had a sharp look in their eyes.

Among them were Di Yelei and Zuo Xingyu’s acquaintances, Xiaoliang.

Xiaoliang was nervous, almost not daring to look up at Di Yelei.

They said they were escorting Di Yelei, the official criminal, to Gongzhou City, but in fact, they were headed further and further into a remote area. Up ahead was Black Wind Ridge, notorious for being infested with bandits.

At their current pace, they would be deep in the heart of Black Wind Ridge by nightfall.

It seemed like there was a lot going on in Gongzhou City!

He wanted to turn back countless times, thinking of his wife and children, but he steeled himself and kept moving forward.

Everyone’s thoughts were similar, and they exchanged glances in secret. However, the leader was the manager appointed by Lord Xin Quan, and no matter how many words they had, they couldn’t voice them out.

Finally, everyone communicated with their eyes, pushing Xiaoliang forward.

“Honorable Manager, should we set up camp here? Or should we speed up and pass through Black Wind Ridge ahead?”

The manager lazily scanned the crowd, his face full of discontent: “Do I really need you to teach me how to do my job?”

“No, not at all, Honorable Manager.”

Xiaoliang swallowed hard: “Honorable Manager, you may not have traveled this road before, so you don’t know. About ten miles ahead is Black Wind Ridge. You must have heard of it, Honorable Manager. It’s a notorious den of bandits. If we continue at our current pace, won’t we just be walking right into the hands of the bandits? So, what do you think, Manager…?”

Everyone nodded in agreement, endorsing Xiaoliang’s words.
