Night falls.
Song Family Castle.
Hundreds of people stood in front of a residential building like quails, their expressions fearful.
Around them, more than twenty armed guards stood watch.
Upon closer inspection, it wasn't just the people within the perimeter who were frightened; even the guards encircling them were anxious.
Captain Guan is dead.
He died in this ordinary residential building.
It is said that the manner of his death was horrific, most likely a murder.
He was a member of the Guan Family, which speaks volumes. If that Awakener noble knew that his younger brother died under mysterious circumstances here...
What would happen then?
Wouldn't he bury the whole Song Family Castle with him? Who would dare to say anything against it?
On the third floor, in a room, lay two corpses, one male and one female. The bodies were already decayed, the stench so strong it could make someone vomit bile.
Cheng Lei looked at the male corpse's face, his own visage pale.
