The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Although Murong Qiu Shui rejected Tang Qishan's invitation and Xiao Zhu also put forward the condition that the missing woman must be found first before agreeing, this result has already made Tang Qishan overjoyed.

Among these two people, the one Tang Qishan values ​​the most is Xiao Zhu, who resolved his Black Rock Hand attack. Now that he can cooperate with him, no matter whether he can find the woman or not, he can be regarded as having made a friend like Xiao Zhu. What's more, with the influence of the Black Hand Gang, let alone finding someone, they are capable of finding even an ant in Sanbianzhou.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Tang Qishan said yes three times in a row, and then said cheerfully: "In that case, you two should go to the Black Hand Gang to rest for a while. Brother Xiao Zhu, please help describe the characteristics of the person you need to find in detail. I will immediately mobilize all members of the Black Hand Gang to search for him. As for Miss Murong, you just mentioned that you have important matters to attend to. If there is anything you need the Black Hand Gang's assistance for, please feel free to ask."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu and Murong Qiu Shui looked at Tang Qishan with gratitude. Although this man's main purpose was to win them over, the open-mindedness and generosity he showed really made them feel good.

"Thank you for your kindness, Boss Tang, but my business is a private matter and I can only do it myself." Murong Changtian's affairs were Murong Qiu Shui's heart knot, and she was absolutely unwilling to reveal anything to the outside world. However, when she said this, she glanced at Xiao Zhu intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiao Zhu and Murong Qiushui followed Tang Qishan back to the Black Hand Gang. Tang Qishan arranged accommodation for them and told them that he had dismissed the women detained by Tang Mu and compensated them with a large sum of money. This made Xiao Zhu and Murong Qiushui like Tang Qishan even more.

Over the next three days, the Black Hand Gang used all their strength without reservation to help Xiao Zhu find Xia Shi. In fact, the Black Hand Gang did not have to put so much effort into doing this, but they gradually discovered that Xia Shi’s disappearance might be related to the mysterious sandstorm. The sandstorm caused huge losses to Sanbianzhou, and tracking down the sandstorm was the Black Hand Gang’s top priority at the moment, which led to the spectacle of the gang using all their strength to find one person.

Three days passed, and the Black Hand Gang searched Sanbianzhou and the surrounding area within a hundred miles. With their searching ability, not even an ant could escape their sight, but Xia Shi seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, and no one had seen any trace of Xia Shi.

If it weren't for the Acacia Bell on Xiao Zhu's body still emitting a faint light, indicating that Xia Shi was still safe, Xiao Zhu would probably have been driven crazy by this aimless search.

Although the Black Hand Gang did not find Xia Shi in the end, they got another piece of news that another group of people from Nuowan College had recently come to Huanling Country. After hearing this news, Murong Qiushui specifically asked the Black Hand Gang who they were, and the Black Hand Gang also fully demonstrated their powerful intelligence capabilities this time.

After several days of investigation, the Black Hand Gang learned that the leader of the Nuowan Academy this time was the newly promoted elder Yu Han. More importantly, Xie Guli, who had sold information to the Feng family and directly led to Murong Changtian's death, was also among them. After learning this news, Murong Qiushui formally bid farewell to the Black Hand Gang and Xiao Zhu, and chased in their direction alone.

Looking at Murong Qiu Shui's departing back, Xiao Zhu could not persuade him and just sighed silently.

Five days later.

As night fell, Tang Qishan found Xiao Zhu. He looked at the starry night sky, patted Xiao Zhu's shoulder gently, and said, "Brother Xiao Zhu, the Black Hand Gang is very sorry that we couldn't help you find Xia Shi, but over the past few days, Tang feels that some things are too strange. I have some speculations that I want to share with you, Brother Xiao Zhu."

Hearing Tang Qishan say this, Xiao Zhu looked at him in confusion and asked, "Boss Tang, please speak!"

Tang Qishan thought for a moment and said slowly: "I guess that the sandstorm was actually aimed at Xia Shi."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Why did Gang Leader Tang say that?"

"I have lived in Sanbianzhou for more than 30 years, and I have never seen such a strange sandstorm. It came and went quickly. Apart from damaging some property, it did not cause serious casualties. So far, all the casualties have been found. The living have been found, and the dead have been found, but Xia Shi is the only one who has disappeared!"

"What's even more strange is that after the sandstorm, neither the cause of its formation nor Xia Shi's whereabouts could be traced. It was as if someone had deliberately erased all traces. I have been thinking about this matter these days, and the more I think about it, the more I feel that the formation and arrival of this sandstorm was for the fundamental purpose of taking Xia Shi away." Tang Qishan expressed his speculation in detail.

Hearing Tang Qishan's words, Xiao Zhu fell into deep thought. Tang Qishan's words were well-reasoned and Xiao Zhu quickly believed his speculation. Xiao Zhu asked: "Boss Tang is knowledgeable. Can you deduce who took Xia Shi away?"

Xiao Zhu's question was just a tentative one, and he didn't hold out much hope, but Tang Qishan gave a clear clue: "In fact, I have thought about this question for a long time. If the sandstorm was man-made, judging from its power, only a hunter king-level demon hunter could have caused it. Moreover, even if they are both hunter kings, the difference in strength is huge. I can feel that this person's strength is far superior to mine. And in Huanling Country, there are only two places I can think of that have demon hunters of this strength."

"Which two places?" Xiao Zhu asked anxiously.

"The Red Lotus Sect and the Divine Snow Sect!" came Tang Qishan's deep voice.

Hearing Tang Qishan's answer, Xiao Zhu unconsciously glanced at the Acacia Bell in his hand, and saw the light flowing on the surface of the bell. This light was like the Acacia Bell was born with, so calm and without any waves. This light gave Xiao Zhu a strong comfort in his heart. He thought about it and said: "Thank you for your advice, Boss Tang, but the Red Lotus Sect and the Shenxue Sect are located in the east and west of Huanling Country respectively. If I go to look for them without any clue, I am afraid I will go in the wrong direction. Between the two, Boss Tang, can you make a preliminary judgment on which one is more suspicious? Please give me your advice!"

Tang Qishan hesitated for a moment and replied, "As the war between the two sects continues, the Shenxue Sect has retreated to the endless Yashan Mountains in the northwest. Judging from the current situation, I think the Red Lotus Sect is more suspicious."

"Thank you for your guidance, Boss Tang! I will set off for the Red Lotus Sect immediately." Xiao Zhu bowed solemnly towards Tang Qishan.

Over the past few days, Tang Qishan has gradually seen through Xiao Zhu's character. He knew it was useless to try to keep him, so he nodded and said, "Okay! But once we enter the Red Lotus Cult's territory, the Black Hand Gang will be powerless. You can only rely on yourself from now on."

Xiao Zhu said to Tang Qishan in gratitude: "I have disturbed your gang a lot these days with my work. I will always remember the kindness of Gang Leader Tang and the Black Hand Gang. From now on, I will take on the responsibility alone. Even if I have to search the entire Huanling Country, I will never give up the search."

Xiao Zhu's eyes were filled with determination.
