Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension Chapter 1466: 793: Killing to Break the Seal (Part 2)

Zhao Sheng visited the Weng Pavilion bookshop in Mingxi Town to see Old Shopkeeper Chen, only to learn from Manager Chen that the elder was unwell.

Rushing to the Chen Mansion, they found the study eerily tidy, with the elderly man slumped lifeless behind his desk and a prized Yellow Springs Other Shore Painting mysteriously absent from the wall. Under interrogation, the servant claimed the painting had already vanished when he discovered the body, casting suspicion over the abrupt demise.
