C149 The Red Soul Stone(2)

Thus, Lee Zhuohua used the first move of the Holy Spirit Sword Technique and rushed over. Fortunately, he caught up with him and successfully stopped his movements.

Lin Wunian had only just arrived. When he saw that someone had stopped the thief, he was slightly surprised and couldn't figure out who it was.

When he saw that it was Lee Zhuohua, he no longer felt that it was strange. Obviously, he felt that it was normal for the other party to have such speed. After all, Lin Wunian still felt that his strength was somewhat unfathomable.

"Thanks for your help, Young Master Lee." Lin Wunian cupped his fists and said.

"No worries, it's what I should do. Keep the thing well. As for him ..." Lee Zhuohua said as he handed over the embroidered box with his left hand.

Lin Wunian quickly took the brocade box from Lee Zhuohua's hand. He first opened the brocade box to check it, and after making sure that the things inside were not damaged, he relaxed.

When Lin Wunian opened the brocade box, Lee Zhuohua accidentally saw the scene inside from the corner of his eye.

He had originally thought that there would be some kind of treasure inside, but he didn't expect it to be this kind of thing, but he didn't say anything.

"Young Master Lee, just leave this person to us." Lin Wunian said to Lee Zhuohua after putting away the embroidered box.

When Lee Zhuohua heard what the other party said, he did not hesitate to hand over the thief that he had captured with his right hand.

However, when he looked at the masked man, he found that the person who was originally struggling was no longer breathing.

"Hmm?" Lee Zhuohua frowned. He did not expect that this person would actually choose to commit suicide.

When Lin Wunian saw that Lee Zhuohua still did not hand the thief over to him, he felt a wave of doubt in his heart.

"Young Master Lee, what are you doing?" Lin Wunian looked at Lee Zhuohua in confusion.

Zhao Hanyan, who was outside, walked over at this moment. She saw that Lee Zhuohua had stopped the thief's actions and was about to thank him.

"He's dead." Lee Zhuohua said in a deep voice.

Lee Zhuohua's words rang in the ears of Lin Wunian and Zhao Hanyan, who was walking over.

At first, the two of them were stunned, but after they regained their senses, their expressions became serious one after another.

Lee Zhuohua slowly placed the corpse on the ground, and then took off the black cloth covering his face.

An unfamiliar face was reflected in everyone's eyes.

"Do you know this person?" Lee Zhuohua asked.

Lin Wunian and Zhao Hanyan looked at each other, as if they knew something, but they still said, "I've never seen this person before."

Lee Zhuohua had naturally noticed the exchange of glances between the two. He could tell that the assassin and the item in the box were related to the private matters of the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce. Since the two of them didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't ask too much.

"Since you have brought the thing back, this person has been executed. I will go back first. I am halfway through my cultivation, so it is not appropriate to interrupt. "Lee Zhuohua said indifferently.

After saying that, he stood up and walked back without even looking at the expressions on Zhao Hanyan and Zhuohua's faces.

The two of them did not say anything about Lee Zhuohua's actions. They just looked at Lee Zhuohua's back with a deep meaning.

"Uncle Lin, should we tell him about this?" Zhao Hanyan looked at Lee Zhuohua's back and said to Lin Wunian.

Lin Wunian was a little nervous when he heard Zhao Hanyan's words.

"Miss, you can't do this. This matter concerns the secret of the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce. If outsiders find out..." Lin Wunian quickly advised.

It seemed that this matter had a great deal to do with it, which was why Lin Wunian looked like this.

"Alright, Uncle Lin, I was just asking. Hanyan knows the seriousness of the matter. Right now, we should first get rid of this corpse." Zhao Hanyan retracted his gaze and no longer looked at Lee Zhuohua's back as he left.

"It's good that Miss is clear about it. This corpse will be handled by this old servant. Miss, you should go back and rest early." When Lin Wunian heard Zhao Hanyan's words, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Yes." Zhao Hanyan did not say anything else and turned around to walk back to his room.

"It seems like they also want to take advantage of the decline of my Zhao Family to get a share of the pie as well. The human heart is not ancient, sigh." Zhao Hanyan thought in his heart and could not help but have a headache.

After Zhao Hanyan left, Lin Wunian arranged for the guards to carry the corpse down and bury it. He put the embroidered box back to its original position, locked the door, and looked around vigilantly before leaving.

...

Lee Zhuohua, who was on his way back, was thinking about what had just happened.

However, what flashed in his mind was more of the thing in the brocade box.

"Red Soul Stone, I didn't expect that the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce would actually hide such a thing. It's not simple. But who is going to snatch this thing?" Lee Zhuohua thought about these doubts in his heart.

The Red Soul Stone was not one of the many spirit stones. It was the essence of a lifetime's worth of comprehension that had been condensed in the body of an Earth Surge Star Lord when he sat down.

This was something similar to a kind of relic. When a cultivator reached the Earth Surge, their own comprehension would condense into a substance. As the cultivation of the cultivator increased once again, over time, they would turn into this Red Soul Stone in their body.

The Red Soul Stone was not of much use to an expert who was also at the Earth Surge Realm, because even if they were both at the Earth Surge Realm, it did not mean that they did not have it.

And this thing had incomparable magical power for cultivators below the Earth Surge Realm, because it contained the lifetime comprehension of an Earth Charge Realm Cultivator, as well as some residual memories.

If one could obtain this thing, it would save them a lot of time and effort in their cultivation.

That was why Lee Zhuohua was curious about how the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce obtained this Red Soul Stone.

It belonged to the ancestors of the Zhao Family, or it was obtained from somewhere else.

"Looking at what happened today, the origin of this Red Soul Stone is obviously not simple. But what does this have to do with me? If they don't say it, it means that they don't want me to interfere. Since that's the case, why should I care so much?" Lee Zhuohua stopped thinking about it when he thought of this.

He shook his head and walked back to his room with light steps.
