Tang Siqi spat out a small mouthful of blood. Her pretty face paled slightly as she waved her hands and recollected her spirit artifacts.
“How are you?” She looked towards Qin Lie who was struggling to sit up.
“I’m fine. Two of my chest bones broke, but I won’t be dying anytime soon.” Qin Lie’s gaze was cold as he stared at the hole and asked, “Who would try to kill us?”
“I don’t know. I’ll investigate this thoroughly once we get back,” Tang Siqi hatefully replied.
“Liang Shaoyang. It should be Liang Shaoyang!” Qin Lie suddenly exclaimed, “He’s the only one we offended as of late. It must be him!”
Tang Siqi suspected him as well. Hearing Qin Lie’s words she nodded slightly and said, “If I find evidence that he is the one behind this, I won’t let him off easy!”
“You two, come and rest for a moment at my shop.” The fat owner of Cloud Sky Mountain’s commercial building popped out of nowhere and stood beside Qin Lie and Tang Siqi. His little eyes were narrowed as he looked at the members of the crowd surrounding them and unleashed an incredible aura. “Please give way!”
“Cloud Sky Mountain’s Wu Tuo!”
“It’s actually Wu Tuo!”
The crowd that had gathered changed their expressions and quickly retreated after hearing his yell.
Amongst the crowd, Liang Zhong was also secretly shocked. He seemed to be wondering why Wu Tuo was in Armament City.
Both Tang Siqi and Qin Lie felt inwardly surprised when they saw the fat, middle-aged man who was flattering them earlier had abruptly changed his aura.
“My apologies. My place is slightly far away, so when I heard of the fight and rushed over, they had already escaped.” Wu Tuo’s expression was apologetic. “If I had arrived earlier, then you would not have been hurt.”
He had said this with strong confidence.
Qin Lie tried sensing the aura from his body, and suddenly, a shudder rippled within his heart. “Netherpassage Realm!”
This fat, middle-aged man was actually a Netherpassage Realm expert!
“Milord!”
“Milord!”
The two shop clerks had also hurried over before standing beside Wu Tuo with steady expressions.
Wu Tuo nodded, bowed slightly, and said, “Will the two of you come back with me to rest your feet or head straight back to Armament Sect? Don’t worry, those two people should not dare to return with me watching over you.”
“Then we will rest for a bit at your shop. We are both hurt, and we need to nurse ourselves and recover.” Tang Siqi stared at him in surprise before asking with uncertainty, “Are you really Cloud Sky Mountain’s Wu Tuo?”
“It’s me.” Wu Tuo smiled kindly, “I’ve only come to Armament City recently. Please take care of me in the future.”
Hearing his words, Tang Siqi immediately relaxed and withdrew her Cloud Shield.
