Chapter 564 - 313: Chaos in the Flying Fish Pavilion, Disciples of Mo Lin

"Is this commotion an enemy attack?"

Su Mu instantly disengaged from his cultivation state, frowning slightly, his instincts alerting him to rise.

But in the next breath, he returned to meditation, not leaving his small room.

Those few loud bell sounds must mean some kind of incident happened within the Cyan Fish Gang; otherwise, it wouldn’t create such a big disturbance.

"As long as they don’t come to provoke me, it’s none of my business; the Cyan Fish Gang can resolve it themselves."

With the Cyan Fish Gang being one of the seven major powers in Donglai County, the incident occurring internally, any ordinary disturbance can quickly be subdued and suppressed. I just need to watch and not get involved in this mess.

The Flying Fish Pavilion is undoubtedly one of the critical places of the Cyan Fish Gang, where various cultivation techniques and secret manuals are displayed, containing the foundation built over hundreds of years since the separation from the Cao Bang.

Cultivation inheritance is extremely important for a gang, noble family, or power; it’s one of the gang’s foundations.

Genius martial artists might encounter a break, and great cultivators might face gaps, but as long as the complete cultivation inheritance remains, there’s always hope to rise again. Once the inheritance is broken, it’s extremely difficult.

The Flying Fish Pavilion, as part of the Cyan Fish Gang’s Scripture Pavilion, is guarded tightly all twelve hours of the day, always having at least several Fourth Grade elders from the gang in place openly and covertly.

However, tonight the Flying Fish Pavilion is far from peaceful, smoke billowing, and inside fire ablaze!

"Fire’s broken out, quickly extinguish it, extinguish it!"

Inside the Flying Fish Pavilion, with various cultivation techniques and secret manuals, the ancient texts are fragile. Several elders dare not rashly use cultivation to extinguish the fire, instructing the disciples to fetch water to put it out.

"This is no accident; someone deliberately started the fire and took advantage of the chaos to break into the Flying Fish Pavilion... Seal the surrounding area of the Flying Fish Pavilion, block all exits from the gang, capture any suspicious person immediately!"

An enraged roar reverberated for miles, a Law Enforcement Hall Elder, eyes bloodshot, issued commands.

Flying Fish Pavilion’s secret location.

"Got the item?"

"Yes."

"Give it to me."

A masked figure in black didn’t hesitate, immediately handing over the tightly wrapped item from his bosom, but just as it was handed over.

The black-clad man’s body trembled violently, his eyes exposed suddenly constricting, showing disbelief and anger, looking down to see a hand like a steel blade piercing through his chest.

"Why, why..."

The responding black-clad figure in the dark did not voice any reply, just swiftly withdrew the hand, blood splattering three steps away, the later figure swaying, merging into the night without turning back, rushing out from the firelight.

"Someone is there?!"

"Make way, let me through!"

Soon, the dead black-clad man was discovered, the Law Enforcement Hall elder arrived furious, power surged in his palm, and he whipped the mask off the man’s face from a distance.

Seeing such a familiar visage, many present were taken aback.

"It’s him; it really is him..."

"He turned out to be an internal spy? Someone stole the Flying Fish Pavilion’s secret manuals!"

Once the gang members recognized the face of the corpse, all were filled with rage; tonight, the guards at the Flying Fish Pavilion were especially shocked and angry, such a thing happening right under their noses, and an insider managed to infiltrate the guard ranks.

"Clang clang clang——!"

The already urgent bell sound at this moment fell onto the ears of all disciples outside the Flying Fish Pavilion, growing more grand, more urgent, causing everyone present to grow more furious.

In no time, Cyan Fish Gang disciples, like a tide, converged from all directions, illuminating the area around Flying Fish Pavilion vividly, this giant of a gang awakening quickly, beginning operations.

The commotion continues to expand; tonight seems intent on digging three feet deep, not resting until the culprit is caught, even if it means turning the Cyan Fish Gang upside-down!

"The commotion is growing... it’s from the Flying Fish Pavilion’s direction. Could someone really be brazen enough to steal the Cyan Fish Gang’s secret manuals?"

Su Mu calmly pushed open the wooden window, watching through the window slit as numerous disciples carrying torches swarmed toward the Flying Fish Pavilion.

Hmm?

But amid the dense and chaotic footsteps, Su Mu noticed some subtle, unusual noise, the sound of someone maneuvering on the rooftops.

The faint sound of movement cleverly merged with the evening wind, the waves of early winter’s chill blowing, yet the Cyan Fish Gang disciples were utterly unaware, demonstrating the stealthy person’s exceptional lightweight skill.

If not for Su Mu having a terrifying five senses from repeated transformations, it would be difficult to detect someone stealthily moving in the dark.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh——!"

The wind continued, Su Mu’s gaze slightly elevated, landing on a rooftop, seeing a figure in black leap several meters onto another rooftop.

"Could this person be the instigator of tonight’s chaos?"

"That direction... is it the Alchemy Hall?!"

As the Flying Fish Pavilion’s fire light flickered vaguely, someone was stealthily moving in the dark, evidently with malicious intent; even if this person is not the instigator, they must be an accomplice related somehow.

"Not coming for me... then I’ll keep watching."

Su Mu’s thoughts raced, reaching out to close the window lattice, stepping back half-step into the darkness inside the room, observing the rooftop figure’s movements.

"By the order of the Law Enforcement Hall Master, immediately seal all exits from the gang!"

"Seal all hall entrances, immediately check all hall disciples, capture any anomalies directly, those daring to resist or obstruct may be killed instantly!"

One after another Law Enforcement Hall disciples, clad in robes with fierce black dragon patterns, pronounced the sealing order, their voices carrying across the Cyan Fish Gang sky amidst Qi Blood or Spiritual Qi Infusion.
