Chapter: 5392

"The farm where Lin Wan'er used to live has already been sealed off by the police with strict surveillance."

"In the farm, that wooden structure villa has already been burned down to just a framework, but even so, multiple police warning lines are still set up around it."

"When the police initially discovered multiple charred corpses on the scene, most of which were gunshot deaths, this case was immediately classified as one of the rare major criminal cases in Northern Europe in recent years. The Northern European police have been working tirelessly to investigate, but they've never found any leads."

"Now, all the bodies have been taken away for processing, and any useful evidence or clues have also been extracted. What's left is just this former site where someone died."

"A vintage Porsche 911 convertible came speeding down a rural road and stopped at the edge of the farm ruin."

"The driver is a middle-aged Asian man in his thirties who looks tired, while the woman sitting in the passenger seat is an Asian beauty in her early thirties with a carefree air about her."

"After the car stopped, the driver looked at the burned-down ruins and sighed, saying, 'The English boss has too much of a temper. If it weren't for his old man insisting on killing that scout who came to investigate, this place wouldn't be in such a state. It's almost burnt down to nothing... what clues are left to find?'"

"The beautiful woman in the passenger seat raised an eyebrow and said, 'You've been serving the English master for so many years, yet you still don't know his temper? Lin Wan'er left behind those eight characters, not just mocking his old man, but also telling him that the ring is no longer on my hand. This is what makes the English master most angry! The English master wants the ring the most, and Lin Wan'er threw it away. This means that even if we find Lin Wan'er, we may not be able to find the ring!'"

"'Oh...' The man's face was gloomy: 'The scene evidence is gone, and the ring has disappeared. I really don't want to get involved in this mess. Do I have to shut myself off and practice cultivation again? I see Cheng Shengbo has mastered the art of spiritual energy even more than before. If we don't make an effort, we'll be left behind!'"

"The woman spoke in a soft tone: 'I don't want to come either. Why not let Cheng Shengbo investigate himself? I'm too lazy to compete for credit...'"

"After she finished speaking, she sighed helplessly: 'But who lets Cheng Shengbo not go to Hua Xia... The English master has recently felt that Lin Wan'er may not be in Hua Xia at all. He might be in Russia's Far East or North America's Arctic Circle, so he sent you and me to Northern Europe to investigate and fill the gaps.'"

"The man stretched his neck and lamented: 'Cheng Shengbo is indeed wise. People say he went to New York to investigate the previous failed assault case, but actually, he must have gone to relax in the vibrant world of New York. We two will have to suffer through this investigation.'"

"As he spoke, he pointed to the charred ruins and complained: 'Investigate, investigate, investigate... What's there left to investigate?'"

"The woman clasped her hands together and said: 'Since the English master has spoken, you and I must surely put our hearts into it.'"

"After that, she sighed again and continued: 'Let's do it this way. Now we have two paths. Either find out how Lin Wan'er escaped from Northern Europe or investigate why our mounted guards got lost in Northern Europe. We'll each take one path. Let you choose first.'"

"The driver, a middle-aged Asian man, stroked the steering wheel and said with a hint of annoyance: 'The lady goes first, then let's see what the English master has to say.'"

"Saying that, he couldn't help but tease: 'Ah, if the Marquess of Duan comes to power and becomes the Duke or Earl of Duan, don't forget about someone from Europe!'"

"The woman passenger was none other than Marquess Duan, Yun Ruoge. Yun Ruoge, although a mere female, had exceptional strength and had fought extensively for the English master in years past, earning her the title of Marquess of Duan and making her the only female among the four major marquesses."

"Originally, the English master established a system based on ancient Chinese tradition within the White-Clear Association, setting up five ranks: Duke, Earl, Marquess, Son, and Gentleman. However, due to the fact that the two higher-ranking titles of Duke and Earl were traditionally held by high-ranking officials who wielded great power, the association never actually implemented these titles."

"As a result, within the White-Clear Association, only the English master himself held such a title, with the four major marquesses below him. However, the English master had also made a promise: once someone helps him find Lin Wan'er and the ring, and fulfills his wishes, he will immediately grant them the title of Earl."

"Once one becomes an Earl, they have the opportunity to establish their own territory in this world and cultivate their influence, at which point they can listen to the English master's orders whenever needed, and freely act as they please otherwise. At that moment, Yun Ruoge smiled wryly and spoke up: 'If I really do find Lin Wan'er and the ring of the English master, I won't even think about receiving any title.'"

"The Marquess Duan laughed: 'How so? You're afraid of being too powerful for your own good!'"

"Cloud like song waved her hand: 'I'm just indifferent, what title means nothing to me, as long as I can achieve my goal, the English master will reward me with a few elixirs and that's enough for me.'"

"Eurober smiled and nodded his head: 'Come on, Duan Gong, choose one of the two directions. You go first.'"

"Cloud like song thought for a moment and said: 'I'll check out the Cavalry Regiment line. Lin Wan'er is too cunning, I may not be as clever as her.'" JrNovels.com
