"You're Ma Zhiyong. Work with us to kill Chu Qingyun."
"Hmph, why should I help you?"
"It's not about helping us. That Chu Qingyun is here to cause trouble for you. It's not just us who want to deal with him; you should be worried too."
"What do I have to be worried about? In another eight days, if he can't find anything, he'll leave on his own."
"If you don't cooperate, we'll kill you."
...
The next day was spent investigating around town, but unfortunately, it was another fruitless effort. That Ma Zhiyong was indeed incredibly cunning and had left no clues behind.
That evening, Town Mayor Qu Yuanhang once again threw a grand banquet, inviting Chu Qingyun and insisting he attend, saying some distinguished guests had arrived today.
Chu Qingyun found this very strange.
