"But the people from Niuxin Village really were taken away by the Astrological Bureau."
Cao, the arrest officer's words sent a jolt through Li Huowang's heart. "How is that possible? Why would the Astrological Bureau take Bai Lingmiao's family?"
But the next moment, he snapped back to his senses. "Wait, maybe it wasn't really the Astrological Bureau—maybe someone else was pretending!"
Whether real or fake, it didn't mean anything good for Bai Lingmiao's family.
Li Wang had already seen it from Hong Da—those guys from the Astrological Bureau, as long as they get their way, won't hesitate to kill a few extra people.
And if it was someone disguised, even worse—the outcome could only range from bad to worse.
"Which way did they go?" Li Huowang asked Cao, the arrest officer, his face grim. Now he could only chase after them and hope he'd catch up.
"Seemed to be heading toward the capital, but I can't say how far they've gone."
