A lightning strike transmigrated Zu An into another world. In that world, he was known as the tr*sh of Brightmoon City, but for some reason, he was married to the gorgeous and highly talented daugh...
“Of course not,” Zuan said, somewhat speechless. “We are also investigating why they suddenly died.”
"Sudden death?" The giant, who held the snake in his hands, frowned. "What do you mean?"
“Just a short while ago everyone was fine, and then it was as if everyone was suddenly murdered,” Zuan explained.
"The Chang clan has many experts. Who has the ability to kill them all at once silently in an instant?" another giant wielding a large axe and shield said in a deep voice, while sizing up the three of them. "And who are you, and why are you here?"
The Mermaid Queen knew that revealing the three men's true identities would be difficult to explain, so she said, "I am Chang'e, the Holy Maiden of the Chang Clan. Today is my wedding day with my fiancé, and the entire Chang Clan is very lively. However, not long after we entered the bridal chamber, we noticed something strange outside. When we came out to check, we found that they had all died tragically."
"The Holy Maiden Chang'e?" the giant holding the snake in his hands murmured. "I seem to have heard some legends about you. I remember your fiancé was Yi of the Youqiong clan..."
His gaze then fell on Zu'an: "You are Yi?"
Zu An's heart skipped a beat. The other party actually knew about Chang'e and Yi's engagement. This was going to be troublesome.
But now it's really hard to explain the reason, so he could only say, "Today it was indeed the old clan chief who presided over my wedding with Chang'e."
The other giant, wielding a large axe and shield, said coldly, "How could that be? I've heard of Yi's reputation; he seems to be a rising star of the Wu Clan in recent years. But this kid doesn't have a trace of Wu Clan blood in him."
The Mermaid Queen immediately became anxious: "He is indeed Yi, recognized by the old patriarch and the entire Chang clan. The reasons behind this are quite complicated..."
The giant who had captured the green and yellow snakes interrupted them, saying, "Judging from your affectionate manner, you've obviously been hooking up for a long time. Tell me, did you plan to impersonate Yi to marry him, but your plan was exposed and discovered by the Chang clan, who then killed you in anger?"
As he spoke, his companions from afar had already arrived. Although they were not as imposing and majestic as Xing Tian and Kua Fu, they were still burly and were clearly all members of the Wu tribe.
They naturally surrounded the three of them in the center, each poised to strike, their powerful auras locking onto the three.
Zuan said coldly, "You've come here and started throwing accusations around. I'd like to say that we're investigating the murderer of the Chang clan, and you just happen to show up here. Aren't you highly suspicious?"
Kuafu, who was holding two snakes, snorted: "We were invited by Chief Chang to witness the wedding ceremony, but some things happened on the way, which delayed us for a while, so we are only arriving now."
Xing Tian, wielding a giant axe and shield, nodded in agreement.
Zuan said in a deep voice, "Where's the evidence?"
The two giants were speechless for a moment, and Kuafu couldn't help but angrily say, "What evidence do you need for this kind of thing!"
Kuafu's anger level increased by 114...
Zuan nodded secretly. He hadn't misheard. It was Kuafu, and the other one was Xingtian.
The thought of facing two legendary big shots gave him quite a headache.
Xing Tian, standing to the side, said, "It was Clan Chief Chang who sent us the message using magic. We already knew each other, so why would we need to keep any proof? Wait, I was the one asking you questions, so how did it become you asking us questions?"
Seeing the unfriendly looks around him, Zu An said in a deep voice, "Could you ask them to leave first? I have something confidential to tell you."
Xing Tian and Kua Fu exchanged a glance, then gestured for their companion to move away before glaring at Zu An with hostility: "Just say what you want to say. I advise you not to have any bad ideas. Even if it's just the two of us, you can't escape."
They were all powerful figures in the witch clan, so naturally they weren't worried about any problems arising.
Zu An pondered for a moment. Since the two of them had been invited by the Chang Clan Chief, they were obviously friends with the Chang Clan.
Moreover, although the two looked ferocious, given their size, it would be difficult for them to silently kill many members of the Chang clan without being discovered.
So he recounted how the clan chief had made him impersonate Yi and marry Chang'e in order to prevent the ancient prophecy from coming true.
His voice was calm and unhurried, and he explained the whole story clearly in no time.
"What? The real Yi is dead?"
"The Chang family actually made such a prophecy?"
The two were utterly shocked after hearing this.
"Who exactly killed Yi?" Xing Tian asked in a deep voice.
Zuan shook his head slightly: "I originally wanted to ask the old clan chief, but he insisted that I tell him after the wedding. Who knew something like this would happen?"
He had actually suspected it for a while, but he had no evidence and wasn't sure himself, so he couldn't say anything rashly.
"You mean the murderer killed them to silence them?" Kuafu rested his chin on his hand, the snake above him swimming intimately around his neck, giving the mermaid queen goosebumps.
"We can't rule out that possibility." Zuan was still a little doubtful, since he didn't seem to sense the special power that had been present at the place where Yi had been killed.
"Then why did the murderer let you go?" Kuafu's doubts remained.
“That’s beyond my knowledge,” Zuan said, frowning. “If you continue to waste time here, the real culprit will probably be long gone by then.”
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Xing Tian snorted. “We’ve already checked the surroundings, and there are no other living people besides you.”
"So you still suspect we're the murderers?" the mermaid queen asked, frowning.
"You two were in your wedding night, but where was she?" Kuafu pointed to Mikado Baiqing, who had been silent all along.
Mikado Baiharu gave him a cold look but did not answer.
The mermaid queen immediately panicked: "She's with us."
"Together?" Kuafu and Xingtian were stunned, their gazes shifting back and forth between the group.
He wondered how he could bring other women along on his wedding night?
The bride and this woman are both stunningly beautiful, yet they both agreed to this?
The two men looked at Zuan with admiration in their eyes.
Mikado Baiqing said irritably, "It's not as sordid as you think! I was just taking a walk outside town."
"A break? Alone?" Kuafu and Xingtian's eyes immediately became wary.
“Of course it’s just one person.” Mikado Baiharu stood there, seemingly unconcerned about being misunderstood.
Kuafu and Xingtian exchanged a glance, and their eyes confirmed their suspicions.
This woman is not as simple as she seems on the surface; there seems to be a force about her that makes them uncomfortable.
"In that case, you are the prime suspect. Come with us!" As Kuafu spoke, the green snake in his right hand coiled around Mikado Baiqing.
