Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1812 - 1849: Searching for the Culprit

At this moment, the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang listened to the report from his subordinates, his brows furrowed deeply, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he spoke to the elders and disciples in the hall with a soft voice:

"Oh? It seems that Zhang Heng is indeed one of our Wild Wolf Gang disciples. Guard Commander, you just mentioned that a mysterious youth appeared with Zhang Heng at the exit of the Teleportation Array. Could you elaborate on this?"

As he spoke, the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang slowly turned his gaze toward the Personal Guard Commander, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.

Feeling the leader’s gaze, the Personal Guard Commander trembled all over, cold sweat slowly seeping from his forehead, and he spoke in a trembling voice:

"Reporting to the leader, some time ago, as I and many Personal Guards guarded the Teleportation Array, our Wild Wolf Gang disciple Zhang Heng appeared at the exit. Upon my observation, he seemed like a deceitful person, so at first, I did not pay much attention."

Hearing the Guard Commander’s words, many members of the Wild Wolf Gang couldn’t help but nod secretly. The Guard Commander’s words were true; Zhang Heng indeed had such a personality.

At this moment, the Wild Wolf Gang leader heard the Guard Commander’s words, furrowed his brows deeply, and faintly curled his lips, signaling the Guard Commander to continue.

Upon receiving the leader’s gaze, the Guard Commander dared not delay any further, clearing his throat slightly before speaking in a soft voice:

"Just after Zhang Heng appeared, he somehow enchanted all my Personal Soldiers, making them want to defy your orders, leader, and let Zhang Heng out secretly."

"Letting Zhang Heng go wouldn’t really matter, since he is one of us in the Wild Wolf Gang, and I do have some interactions with him usually. But who would have thought, just as the Personal Guards were about to release him, Zhang Heng insisted on taking some sworn brother out with him."

When the Guard Commander reached this point, the Wild Wolf Gang leader’s eyes slightly narrowed, a gleam flashing in them. He had a premonition that the crux of the matter lay with this sworn brother of Zhang Heng’s.

Thinking of this, the Wild Wolf Gang leader did not respond but slightly narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the expression on the Guard Commander’s face.

As the Guard Commander was about to continue, the Wild Wolf Gang members standing in the hall exchanged surprised glances, then collectively spoke faintly to the Guard Commander:

"No way, Guard Commander. From what we know of Zhang Heng, although he is extremely slick and sensible, he has never formed any sincere friendships. Possibly due to being too crafty, nobody could ever win his respect."

"That’s right, Guard Commander. You must have heard wrong. Zhang Heng is an outright villain who doesn’t have any real friends. Claiming to have a sworn brother is simply nonsense!"

Standing in the hall, the Guard Commander looked somewhat embarrassed upon hearing the words, his mouth twitching slightly, and then turned his head slightly toward the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang.

The leader of the Wild Wolf Gang listened to everyone’s voices, a dangerous arc forming on his lips, his eyes flickering slightly, signaling the Guard Commander to continue.

Feeling the leader’s gaze, the Personal Guard Commander swallowed hard twice, pondered briefly, and then softly spoke to those present:

"Indeed, we were puzzled about where Zhang Heng suddenly found a brother, but as we were bewildered, Zhang Heng revealed a huge secret to my Personal Soldiers."

"A big secret?"

The Wild Wolf Gang leader tensed slightly, and after a slight twitch of his lips, he spoke in surprise to the Guard Commander.

Those present, upon hearing the Guard Commander’s words, widened their eyes, filled with greedy light.

The Guard Commander, feeling the gaze of those around him, showed a bitter smile, coughed lightly twice, and then softly spoke to those around him:

"Indeed. Zhang Heng claimed he discovered a treasure in the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range, full of countless Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills. Only he and his sworn brother knew of this secret. Zhang Heng said that if my Personal Guards could let him out, he would hand over all these Medicine Pills and Spiritual Materials to us."

The Wild Wolf Gang leader felt irritable hearing these mysterious claims, unable to fathom why capturing the culprit who stole from the Wild Wolf Gang’s Treasure Vault involved so many complications.

As the leader was preparing to lose his temper, the Guard Commander paused his speech and then softly told those around him:

"At the time, we also found it unbelievable. After all, such immense benefits that Zhang Heng wouldn’t hide but give to us were ridiculous."

Those listening to the Guard Commander’s words nodded secretly, thinking it reasonable, based on their usual understanding of Zhang Heng, the Guard Commander’s words were true; Zhang Heng usually behaved that way.

Thinking of this, everyone gazed at the Guard Commander with puzzled eyes.

The Guard Commander, upon reaching this point, showed a hint of pride on his face, taking a moment before softly speaking to those around him:

"You might find it unimaginable, but then Zhang Heng suddenly took out a pile of Spiritual Materials and Spiritual Medicine from a storage ring, many of which even I had never seen before!"

Listening to the Guard Commander’s words, everyone was left gaping, eyes filled with disbelief, briefly pausing, then exclaimed to the Guard Commander in surprise:

"How is that possible? Zhang Heng, normally just a regular disciple, how could he have so many Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills!"

"Exactly, exactly. Normally, Zhang Heng’s status is even less than mine. Where did he go to find so many Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills? Could it be that Zhang Heng was right? Is there really some kind of treasure hidden within the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range?"

"It seems that next time I go out, I must pay more attention. Who knows when such a good fortune might fall upon me."

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but start making their own calculations, but the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang, upon hearing the Guard Commander’s words, suddenly had a slight contraction in his gaze, and a sharp gleam instantly shot out from his eyes.

"Guard Commander, you said Zhang Heng suddenly brought out a large number of Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills?"

At this moment, the Personal Guard Commander was momentarily taken aback by the leader’s words, lightly nodded, and then responded blankly to the Wild Wolf Gang leader:

"Reporting to the leader, at that time I indeed saw Zhang Heng take out a large number of Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills from the storage ring."

Upon hearing the Personal Guard Commander’s words, the Wild Wolf Gang leader’s tone began to tremble slightly. After pondering for a moment, he urgently addressed the Guard Commander:

"What happened to those Medicine Pills and Spiritual Materials? Where are they now?"

Upon hearing the leader’s words, the Guard Commander had a brief moment of reflection flash across his face, then responded softly to the Wild Wolf Gang leader:

"Those Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills should still be in the hands of the Personal Guards under my command."

The Wild Wolf Gang leader’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and with a large wave of his hand, he loudly commanded the Guard Commander:

"Quickly gather them all and have them hand over all the Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills they hold."

Upon hearing the leader’s words, the Guard Commander’s face showed a moment of hesitation. After a slight pause, he accepted the command and began summoning all the brothers under his command.

Before long, numerous Personal Soldier Guards had all assembled, numbering up to two or three hundred. They stood beneath the grand hall, looking in confusion at the Guard Commander standing before them.

"Guard Commander, what happened? Why are we all being gathered?"

"Exactly, Guard Commander, can’t this matter be discussed privately? Has something big happened in the gang?"

Upon hearing the words of many brothers, the Guard Commander slightly furrowed his brow, his mouth twitching slightly. Then, he softly spoke to the crowd:

"Brothers, it’s not me calling you this time, but the leader has something to discuss with you..."

Saying this, the Guard Commander gestured toward the middle-aged man in a black robe who was currently seated in the great hall. A peculiar and eerie black aura surrounded the man.

"Leader? What does the leader want to discuss with us?"

"Exactly, Guard Commander, are you kidding us? Does the leader really have something to discuss with us?"

At this moment, looking at the black-robed middle-aged man seated in the grand hall, everyone couldn’t help but show a look of confusion. Seeing the crowd gathered, the corner of the Wild Wolf Gang leader’s mouth twitched slightly, and he addressed the crowd softly:

"Everyone, the reason I’ve gathered you today is actually because I have a matter to seek your assistance with..."

Upon hearing the Wild Wolf Gang leader’s words, all the Personal Soldier Guards exchanged a glance with the Guard Commander and then promptly bowed to the Wild Wolf Gang leader:

"If the leader has any orders, we will do our utmost!"

Upon hearing everyone’s words, a satisfied expression flashed across the leader’s face, and then he softly addressed the crowd:

"In that case, I ask you all to hand over the Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills obtained in the past few days!"

Upon hearing the Wild Wolf Gang leader’s words, the faces of the Personal Guards instantly showed a look of shock. After a brief moment of being stunned, their eyes revealed a look of realization.

Each of them looked toward the Guard Commander, their eyes filled with a venomous expression. Despite their reluctance, since the leader had spoken, they knew they had no choice.

With this realization, everyone began taking out their storage rings from their bosoms and poured out the invaluable Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills.

"Just as I thought..."

As the Wild Wolf Gang leader watched the group pour out the Spiritual Materials and Medicine Pills, a look of understanding crossed his mouth, and his eyes flashed with a bright gleam.
