With regards to Cui Cui being taken away, Sun Qi was definitely the person who blamed him the most. He had spent the past few days in the Shattered Leaf City searching for news without eating or sleeping, and he could feel that his heart was filled with guilt.

After three days without any news, even though he was a Sky Realm expert, he was starting to get impatient. When Gui Ning said the three words' Thunderbolt Hall ', he didn't even need to think for a moment before rushing out. It was clear to see.

After listening to Gui Ning's explanation, he was finally able to calm down. However, when Gui Ning said those words, Sun Qi was completely stupefied.

"What do you mean? Cui Cui isn't in Thunderclap Hall? " Sun Qi asked anxiously.

"Aiya, Uncle Sun, I already said not to rush."

"How can I not be anxious!"

Seeing Sun Qi's anxious expression, Gui Ning quickly explained, "I just said that this thing was manufactured by the Thunderbolt Hall, but I never said that the person who used it must be someone from the Thunderbolt Hall."

"Miss Gui, I'd like to hear more about it!" Yang Muyun also came closer to him. However, he wasn't as excited as Sun Qi because he knew that he couldn't solve any problems due to his anxiousness.

"Yes." Gui Ning nodded. "Although Thunderclap Hall specializes in producing gunpowder for the imperial government, some people would definitely smuggle some unimportant gunpowder out and sell it in the martial arts world."

"As long as you don't do something too excessive and don't sell some important prohibited gunpowder, you will turn a blind eye to it and don't care much about it."

Yang Muyun nodded, this wasn't the first time he had seen something like this, after all, everyone had their own selfish thoughts.

"Due to the appearance of this situation, some gangs in the martial arts world have some firearms. Although they came here for trade, this is something that the Great Yu Dynasty has explicitly forbidden. Therefore, most gangs do not use it lightly."

Gui Ning continued, "As for the one in our hands right now, it's just a high-grade smoke bomb. As long as we have money, we can still get some of it."

"Therefore, who can still say that the culprit who kidnapped Cui Cui was the Thunderbolt Hall?" Gui Ning asked.

Sun Qi also shook his head. He finally understood what was going on. He was still a bit upset that he, an old martial artist, had not been thoroughly analyzed by a little girl.

"Let's not talk about that from a distance. Miss Gui, which sects in this Jiangnan territory have a firearm like this? How did you find out?" Yang Muyun grabbed hold of the key point and asked Gui Ning.

"Yes, we've already sent people to investigate this matter." Gui Ning took out a piece of paper and said, "According to the information on Skynet, although there aren't many sects in Jiangnan Province that can afford to use this type of Smoke Bomb, there are still quite a few."

"After we streamlined it, we chose a few of the most representative sects." Gui Ning read out, "They are: 'Canghai Gang', 'Xuankong Monastery' of Hanhai City, 'Golden Blade Gang' of Golden Chop City and 'Eighteen Boats' of Shattered Leaf City."

"Wait! Three Boats Eighteen!" After hearing about the few gangs from Gui Ning, Yang Muyun suddenly understood, "Why didn't I think of that earlier?"

Yang Muyun's thoughts jumped back a long time ago when he was still in the city.

At that time, a group of yellow-robed people from San Fang Eighteen Dock, led by Liao Hua from the Liao family, arrived at Su Mengfan's courtyard. They wanted to abduct Su Mengfan by force.

In order to avenge Su Mengfan, he had gone through a forest to chase Liao Hua. Later on, outside the Feng Mountain, he had met Liao Cheng, the head of the family, who came to help Liao Hua.

Although Yang Muyun wasn't able to defeat Liao Cheng, it was enough to stall for time. However, Liao Cheng didn't even bother fighting and gave up his advantage, directly bringing Liao Hua with him.

Yang Muyun clearly remembered that when Liao Cheng had left, he had used this type of smoke bomb as a cover. Although it wasn't exactly the same, it was more than 90% similar.

Both Liao Cheng and Liao Hua were members of Jiangnan Liao's family, and the Liao family was a subordinate of the 318 Boats. Thinking about it this way, the person who bought the Smoke Bomb must have been the 318 Boats.

And since he had enmity with someone and also needed to be told not to act rashly, then in the Jiang-Nan territory, there would only be three workshops and eighteen docks. Of course, he couldn't rule out other possibilities.

The Cao family was the number one gang on the water path. Yang Muyun didn't have any connections with them, so there was no need to talk about conflicts between them. They had no reason to act.

The Mystic Skies Temple was a large sect in the Yangzhou city of Hanhai City. It trained mainly in the Taoism and was said to have a close relationship with the current Taoist holy land, the Wu Dang Sect. They had no reason to act.

The Golden Blade Gang, one of the big clans in the city, was extremely famous in Yangzhou. Its leader, the "Eighty-One Swallow Blade Technique", Old Hero Shen Jin Dao. It could be said that he was a person from the previous era, a person from the older generation. He had no reason to do so.

If that was the case, then Cui Cui must have been taken away by the people from Three Ship's Eighteen Docks!

Thinking of this, Yang Muyun heaved a sigh of relief, because Cui Cui was the safest there, even safer than at the rouge button.

Cui Cui was Cui Rong's daughter after all. Which father would let their daughter be harmed? Perhaps it was because of this that Cui Hua had sent someone to kidnap Cui Cui.

However, Cui Cui was still by his side. Even though she was his daughter, was she still someone she could take away as she pleased?

What had he done long ago? Why hadn't he gone to rescue his daughter when she was in trouble? Now, he knew that he was truly worried.

Yang Muyun steadied the sword at his waist. Then, he moved Sun Qi away from him and walked towards the door.

At this moment, Gui Ning was discussing Cui Cui's location with Sun Qi and Yang Qianqian when she suddenly saw Yang Muyun move. They were stunned for a moment.

"Brother, where are you going?" Yang Qianqian was the first to react as she asked Yang Muyun.

Yang Muyun didn't even turn around as she continued walking, "I already know where Cui Cui is. I'll go bring her back."

"What, you know?" Sun Qi shouted, "I'll go with you!"

As he spoke, he was about to follow.

"Uncle Sun, I'll go alone. I can handle it." Yang Muyun stopped and stopped Sun Qi.

"No, I'm going." Sun Qi said.

"What if someone ambushed Qian Qian or Miss Gui again?" Yang Muyun said, "So, I'll leave the heavy responsibility of protecting them to Uncle Sun."

"Then …" Sun Qi hesitated for a moment, "Why didn't you stay?"

"Then does Uncle Sun know where Cui Cui is?" Yang Muyun asked with a smile.

"I don't know." Sun Qi was like a rooster that had lost a fight as he sighed.

"Isn't that enough?" Yang Muyun smiled and said, "Alright, stop saying so much, Uncle Sun, I'm leaving."

However, before Yang Muyun could walk out of the door, Sun Qi seemed to have thought of something and shouted again, "Wait, Mu Yun!"
