I Can See Through Everything

Lu Qing was on his way to the Grand Bazaar.

Yes, the person he was looking for was none other than the overseer of the bazaar, Mago.

Mago could even contact people from the Wei family, so he must have some knowledge about the Black Wolf Gang.

Walking slowly, Lu Qing's expression remained calm.

He felt that his current state was somewhat peculiar.

Although he had just killed quite a few people, his heart remained largely unaffected.

If there was any change, it felt more like a shackle had been removed, making his entire being feel somewhat lighter.

What did this mean? Was he naturally a murderer?

After killing so many people, not only did he not feel any fear or anxiety, but he actually felt relieved.

Lu Qing pondered this strange thought.

Since achieving some success in martial arts, he had always avoided falling into a cycle of killing, unsure of what he would become if he started.

This was probably a trace of inexplicable sentimentality from being a person who had crossed over from a modern, law-abiding society.

Now, it seemed he had overthought it.

Killing was not something to be happy about, but it did not affect him as much as he had imagined.

As long as he could maintain his true self, killing would not disturb his inner peace.

With these strange thoughts in mind, Lu Qing arrived outside the Grand Bazaar.

Today was not a market day, so the bazaar was empty.

After a quick glance, Lu Qing walked towards a nearby house.

When he reached the house, he found the door tightly shut and knocked a few times.

Soon, someone came out to open the door. Upon seeing Lu Qing, they were first stunned, then surprised.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, why are you here?"

It turned out that the one opening the door was Xiao Tian, a subordinate of Mago whom Lu Qing had met before.

"I'm here to visit Master Ma. Is he at home?" Lu Qing inquired.

"Yes, yes, Master Ma is in the backyard drinking. I'll go call him out." Xiao Tian replied hurriedly.

"No need to trouble yourself. I will go to the backyard to see him directly."

Lu Qing did not want to waste time.

Xiao Tian thought for a moment and saw nothing wrong with it.

He knew that Master Ma had always wanted to befriend Lu Xiaolangjun, even gifting him a treasured knife.

So after a brief hesitation, he nodded, "Please, follow me inside."

Lu Qing followed Xiao Tian into the house, passing through two doors, and arrived at a quaint little courtyard.

In the courtyard, under a vine trellis with a stone table, a man was drinking alone. Who else could it be but Mago?

"Lu Xiaolangjun, please wait here."

Xiao Tian stopped Lu Qing and then ran ahead to whisper in Mago's ear.

Soon, Lu Qing saw Mago stand up with a look of surprise and delight, looking towards him.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, why have you come?"

"Master Ma, you seem to be in high spirits, drinking this early in the morning." Lu Qing walked forward with a smile.

"Just a few casual drinks to pass the time," Mago said cheerfully. "How about it, Lu Xiaolangjun? Will you join me for a drink?"

Of course, he was in a good mood.

The recent incident with Young Master Wei was resolved perfectly. Not only was he not punished by the Wei family, but he was also rewarded generously by the Wei family's head steward, making him very happy lately.

"Maybe another time. Today, I have something to ask Master Ma." Lu Qing declined.

It was then that Mago noticed the battle knife on Lu Qing's back.

His heart skipped a beat, and his expression became somewhat serious.

"Xiao Tian, go keep watch outside and don't let anyone approach."

"Yes, Master."

After Xiao Tian left, Mago invited Lu Qing to sit.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, what has happened?"

Instead of answering directly, Lu Qing asked, "Master Ma, do you know someone named Han Lao Wu?"

"Han Lao Wu?" Mago thought for a moment, then shook his head, "I've never heard of this name."

"This person claims to be a disciple of the Black Wolf Gang. He has a sworn brother named Zhao Xiong, who is also a disciple of the Black Wolf Gang."

Zhao Xiong was the man with the mole on his face whom Lu Qing had kicked to death. This name was obtained through his abilities.

"Black Wolf Gang?" Mago was startled, "How did you get involved with this gang?"

"Is the Black Wolf Gang very powerful?" Lu Qing asked.

"Not exactly powerful, but they are known for their underhanded and ruthless methods. Their usual businesses are unsavory, involving brothels and gambling dens, so they have considerable influence in the county and are one of the three major gangs."

"I see." Lu Qing nodded thoughtfully.

"Why, have you had a conflict with the Black Wolf Gang?" Mago asked.

"Something like that." Lu Qing nodded. "I believe my parents were killed by them."

Mago: "..."

This wasn't just a conflict; it was a deep-seated blood feud!

However, he was unaware of this matter. Previously, according to Xiao Tian's investigation in Jiuli Village, Lu Qing's parents had accidentally drowned.

It seemed there was more to this story.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, have you confirmed this information?" Mago asked.

"I'm still investigating, but this is what the elders in my village told me, so it should be accurate."

"And what about Han Lao Wu and Zhao Xiong that you mentioned earlier?"

"This morning, a group claiming to be members of the Black Wolf Gang broke into our village, trying to take Xiao Yan and me away, claiming it was to repay a debt my parents owed to the Black Wolf Gang. Han Lao Wu and Zhao Xiong were among them."

"Later, they were stopped by the villagers, and I learned that my parents' deaths were related to the Black Wolf Gang." Lu Qing explained.

"And those members of the Black Wolf Gang?"

"I killed them all."

"..."

Mago did not expect that his little brother had just killed some people.

However, considering Lu Qing's identity as a martial artist, he understood.

These days, which martial artist didn't have a few lives in their hands?

As long as it didn't involve massacring civilians, even the county magistrate wouldn't care about martial artists fighting and killing each other.

After thinking for a moment, he continued to ask, "Then, you didn't manage to ask Han Lao Wu and Zhao Xiong about the truth behind your parents' deaths?"

Lu Qing shook his head, "I struck too hard in the heat of the moment and killed them before I could question them."

Mago: "..."

His little brother seemed to have a heavy hand when it came to killing.

"So, although you killed some members of the Black Wolf Gang, you still don't know the exact circumstances of your parents' deaths?"

"That's correct." Lu Qing nodded. "But I know that Han Lao Wu and Zhao Xiong seemed to be peripheral members of the Black Wolf Gang, and they had a few brothers in the area who were also involved in my parents' deaths."

"Peripheral members?"

Mago was taken aback, then as if recalling something, his eyes suddenly brightened.

"I think I know who you're looking for."
