before, I went to find them. Each one said they weren't there, leaving me with a cold shoulder.""Well, Xiao Ye did a good job and made those people look like they'd been through the wringer. Now it's..."This…"

Liu An was instantly dumbfounded. He now understood why the Great Elder had such a temper, it turned out he had lost his precious sword manual.

"Grand Elder, didn't you put it in the wrong place No one has been to the library these days, let alone a thief."

He began to look around as they spoke.

"Don't look any further, I remember clearly. I put it here after finishing it last night. It's impossible for me to have misplaced it."

This is what happens when someone steals from you. If I find out who did this, I'll make sure they pay.

Long Sun Wugong's face was filled with fury: "Sound the alarm immediately and gather everyone from the Long Sun clan. I want to get to the bottom of this and find out who did it."

"Yes."

Liu An hurriedly followed Changsun Wugong's instructions, not daring to delay in the slightest. After all, this elder held a position of immense power within the Changsun family, second only to the head of the household.

The alarm sounded quickly. There was a rule in the Changsun family that whenever the alarm was raised, it meant something important had happened and everyone had to gather at the square.

Soon, hundreds of members of the Changsun family arrived at the square.

Among them were nearly a hundred direct descendants of the Changsun family, and the rest were warriors like bodyguards and elders.

The head of the household, Sun Wenzhi, was napping in his study when he heard the alarm and rushed out. Seeing Liu An, he asked, "What happened Who told you to pull the alarm"

Though he was not a martial artist, he exuded the aura of someone in command.

Liu An quickly said: "Master, it was the Grand Elder who asked me to pull you."

Changsun Wenzhi looked at Changsun Wugong: "Second brother, what's the matter"

"Big brother, the lost pages of Dragon Slaying Nine Swords…"

Long Sun Wugong briefly summarized the situation, finally saying, “I just looked at the sword manual last night, which means it wasn’t lost for very long.”

In such a short time, the sword manual was stolen silently. It is very likely that there is a traitor among our family.

"How is this possible Our Changsun family has tight defenses, outsiders can't get in at all, let alone someone entering the library."

It was Changsun Qiulan who spoke, taking a step forward as she said, "Second Uncle, could it be that someone else from the family took him"

Changsun Wugong said, “This is impossible. According to our family rules, the books in the library are absolutely not allowed to be taken away, let alone the sword manual for the Zhanlong Sword.”

And I just asked Liu An, no one has entered the library since last night.

"That's strange." Changsun Qiulan, as the current head of the family, turned to face the hundreds of people behind her and called out, "Who among you entered the library from last night till now"

Hundreds of people bowed their heads, not a word spoken among them.

Although many people don't know what happened, seeing the solemn expressions of the head of the family and the elder, they also know that something major has occurred.

After waiting for a long time, there was no movement at all. Changsun Qiulan thought about it and turned back to say: "Second Uncle, I still feel that it's unlikely that it was done by our family."

If someone wanted to steal the Zhānlóng Jiǔjiàn swordsmanship manual, they probably would have done it by now.

"Could it be an outsider then " Changsun Wugong looked at Liu An, "Has anyone visited our Changsun family recently"

"Grand Elder, there haven't been any visitors in the past three days. Speaking of outsiders..."

He hesitated for a moment.ooking to be around six or seven hundred thousand. There are also some spirit herbs and grasses, even including high-level sixth and seventh order ones.These treasures and his cultivation level are co...
