“Hmph, if Xiao Qianxiu hadn’t been more than four months late, we would have been able to catch that man’s tail, which would have prevented us from being able to keep coming up empty-handed.” Qin Xihai snorted coldly.
She was extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Qianxiu, and if she hadn’t been unable to beat him, she would have gone to his door to teach him a lesson.
“Now it seems that I was wrong in my expectations. The person who killed Qi Feng would not be Qing Yu, and even if Qing Yu was a natural talent, there is no way he could have escaped under Xiao Qianxiu.” Ning Wuming sighed softly.
“Wait, Lord Ning, you said that the person who killed Lord Lu and Luo Yan was this masked man?” Bu Lengchuan exclaimed in shock.
“Didn’t you say that no one could see the exact appearance of that murderer?”
When Lu Qifeng and Luo Yan were killed, Bu Lengchuan was one of the first Department Six constables to arrive at the scene.
The onlookers who had fought at that time had basically all died from the aftermath of the battle, and the few who survived had only a vague impression of the two due to their low realms and the mental shock of the two True Dan realm experts.
Under such circumstances, Department Six had no way of knowing even the clothing of the killers. In the end, Ning Wuming, the ‘Flawless Divine Constable’, who had always been known for his wisdom, made a bold guess that the murderer was Qing Yu.
The speed of Qing Yu’s martial arts improvement had always been appalling. If Qing Yu hadn’t gone into hiding and not seen anyone once he had advanced to the Divine Origin, perhaps Department Six would have invited him for a cup of tea and a secret by the way.
It was also a more reasonable inference that Qing Yu, who had a very deep secret, was able to break through the common perception and advance to True Dan.
Now, however, that presumption was broken with this letter.
Ning Wuming nodded, “Although those Jianghu scattered people have some strength, they are worlds apart from Lu Qifeng and the masked man. It is normal for them to be deterred by the two of them and not be able to tell their appearance.”
He paused, “But they did see it after all. They had the man’s appearance in their memories, they just couldn’t make sense of them. This leads to the fact that there is not no way for us to know the appearance of the murderer.”
“Since they can’t sort out their memories, we’ll see for ourselves.”
The one who spoke was Qin Xihai. At this moment, her face was actually indifferent, and the cruelty in her words caused even Bu Lengchuan, who was ruthless with his blade, to wince a little.
See for yourself. How to see?
It was actually very simple, soul searching techniques. Directly treat these people as prisoners, invade their memories with powerful mental power and dig those memories out.
This would result in these people’s minds being traumatised, and the best outcome would be to become idiots. But this point of sacrifice by the Jiang Hu casual practitioners was not worth mentioning in front of the matter of finding out the death of the ‘Wind Chasing God Catcher’.
Ning Wuming said, “Search the souls of all the people present. The clothes of the murderer were finally pieced together. Dark golden armour, a mask with two parts at the top and bottom, and black hair. Although Qing Yu’s hair was now white, the colour of the hair was not a problem for Qing Yu, who was proficient in disguise techniques. That is why I always thought this person was Qing Yu. But nowadays ——”
Now, this murderer has changed.
Even if Qing Yu had refined his kung fu as fast as he could, he could not have progressed to the point where he could escape from Xiao Qianxiu’s hands in such a short period of time.
One had to know that even those ten supreme experts in the True Dan Realm on the Earth Ranking would have difficulty escaping from the Tong Shen Realm. Not to mention, this Tong Shen realm was also the Lord of the Imperial Sword Villa, Xiao Qianxiu.
“We had thought that it was also possible that the Shadow King had sent someone to do it, after all, when we were running for the Divine Constable, Brother Lu was undoubtedly on my side. But with the experts on the Shadow King’s side, there were always people watching, it would have been difficult for them to strike.
Nowadays, it seems that we have underestimated the Shadow King’s power.” Qin Xihai shook his head and sighed bitterly.
There was actually one more reason. That was the True Dan Realm under the Shadow King, although some of them had not revealed their true appearance, their martial arts characteristics had all been recorded by Department Six.
Once it was discovered that the person who had a*sa*sinated Lu Qifeng was one of the Shadow King’s men, even if it was only a suspicion, it would be enough to put the Shadow King in a pot. After all, it was taboo to kill someone at the drop of a hat.
It was just that the people on Department Six’s side had not expected that the Shadow King was still secretly hiding such a powerful expert.
“The Dragon Tiger Mountain traitor Zhang Xuanji, and that masked man. Hey, the Shadow King is really hiding quite a few secret moves!” Ning Wuming opened his eyes, his godless pupils, at this moment, were actually filled with a deep murderous intent as well.
“The a*sa*sination of Qi Feng, so that even if Xi Hai wins, there is no way to stop that guy from ascending to the position of divine constable. Good plan, really good plan!”
“Is the Shadow King treating the people of Department Six like pigs? Ah?!”
At the end of the sentence, Ning Wuming growled in a low voice, his voice carrying unspeakable bitterness and hatred.
Killing when needed, wasn’t this just slaughtering as pigs? The Shadow King’s recklessness was such that anyone who was a member of Department Six had a feeling of things hurting. Not to mention the fact that Ning Wuming and Lu Qifeng were actually very close to each other. Over the years, Lu Qifeng has been the main outsider while Ning Wuming has been the main insider, so they are two of the most important minds in Department Six.
“We must give the Shadow King a little bit of a show ——”
The resolute words caused a burst of joy in Qin Xihai.
For some time in the past, this strong-minded goddess catcher had actually been proposing to directly step in to combat the Shadow House, only that Ning Wuming had never agreed to it due to his stable considerations. But now, Ning Wuming was also moved to anger.
“As it should be!” Qin Xihai said forcefully.
She had been looking forward to this day for quite some time now.
“Xihai, you go to the Jixia Palace and invite the Lord of Science, Sacrificial Wine Ming, to come and help. The Shadow King’s side of the Tong Shen realm has rarely been revealed so far, so we still need good insurance.” Ning Wuming said to Qin Xihai.
“Won’t we invite the Sheriff God to come forward?”
“The Sheriff God is the leader of my Department Six, have you ever seen a leader come out to deal with the enemy’s minions?”
“I understand.”
Qin Xihai thundered and immediately went over to change his clothes and went to the Jikei Palace to invite someone.
In the garden, silence returned once again. It was just that the two people left behind were hardly at peace in their hearts.
————————
Outside the Divine Capital City.
A carriage slowly drove towards the capital city of the Northern Zhou.
The carriage looked extremely ordinary, not much different from other pa*sing carriages. The only difference was that the driver was a woman.
In the carriage, however, was another woman of great beauty who made the carriage different from the others.
“After all, we have to go to the divine capital to look for clues.” Yun Wuyue pushed open the carriage window, revealing a slit, and looked at the majestic city in the distance.
On her face, there was a slight hint of exhaustion.
During this period of time, she had searched everywhere for that person’s whereabouts, and the scouts under her had been chasing after the Blood Cloth House.
It was just a pity that even when she had finally sought out Ji Tang, she had not learned of Gong Zi Yu’s whereabouts.
As a result, she eventually came to the Divine Capital. This place where the Green Dragon Society and Gong Zi Yu had completely disappeared.
