"Xiao Meng, can you stop talking nonsense?"

Xiao Chen looked at the spiritual roots of heaven and earth and said unhappily.

Although he did raise the spiritual root of heaven and earth as a child, he did not say that he was a "father".

"I'm not talking nonsense. Xiaogen is just a child. Why else would he call you? Brother?"

Su Xiaomeng asked.

"Given its age, it should call Brother Chen 'grandson', right?"

Bai Ye smiled.

"roll!"

Xiao Chen glared, this kid was indispensable everywhere.

After breakfast, Bai Ye and others prepared to leave.

"Old Zhao, are you sure you can walk by yourself? You don't need Xiaobai and the others to carry you?"

Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Lao Mo and asked.

"Not really. The external injuries have healed a lot."

Old Demon Zhao shook his head, his face turned pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Having said that, when he stood up, his wound was still affected, causing him a lot of pain.

However, he remained silent and persisted with gritted teeth.

How can a dignified old devil like Zhao deserve to be carried by others?

That's too embarrassing.

"It's a shame to die with dignity."

Xiao Chen curled his lips.

"Brother Mo, why are you being so polite to us..."

Bai Ye and the others also said so.

"You can't just lie down all the time. It's time to stretch your muscles."

As Zhao Lao Mo spoke, he walked slowly forward.

"Third brother, Zou Xiangming..."

"I know. I will definitely bring you back to Longhai."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Just go back and wait."

"good."

Old Demon Zhao responded and looked at Bai Ye and the others.

"Please come and help me, old man."

"hehe."

Bai Ye and his companions walked forward with a smile and helped Zhao Lao Mo walk out.

Half an hour later, everyone arrived at the mountain gate.

Even Long Zhuifeng gave enough face and came to see him off in person.

"We're leaving."

Han Yifei said.

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded and looked at Xue Chunqiu and others.

"Don't worry."

Xue Chunqiu said lightly.

This time they traveled together more to protect the safety of Han Yifei and others.

As for the teleportation array, they didn't hold out much hope and didn't plan to stay any longer.

Besides, they left for the other forces to see.

Although many people left, there were still many left... Xiao Chen thought about it and decided that it would be inappropriate to chase them away, so he simply let Lao Xue and the others leave as well.

In that case, these people might leave.

After all, even Lao Xue and the others had left, which gave them a feeling that the possibility of finding the teleportation array was slim.

Otherwise, would Lao Xue and the others leave?

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded and looked at the novel fans and others.

"Thank you for your hard work this time. I will treat you all to a meal when we get back."

"good."

Novel fans and others responded.

After chatting for a while, everyone got in the car and slowly left.

Sure enough, as Bai Ye and others left, more and more people also planned to leave.

If there really was an opportunity, would Xue Chunqiu and the others go?

Impossible things.

Now that they have left, there is not much point in staying.

At noon, the Kunyu Gate, which was originally crowded with people, seemed empty.

The rest are all bigwigs from powerful forces, like Jiang Lingyun and others.

Just when Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he could finally have some free time, someone ran over in panic.

"Master, something happened!"

"What's up?"

Xiao Chen frowned.

"Thank you... Thank you for fucking him..."

The visitor was out of breath.

"Xie Gan? What happened to Xie Gan? Did he run away?"

Xiao Chen was shocked.

"No, he is dead."

The visitor took a breath and said hurriedly.

"What?!"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen's eyes widened.

"Xie Gan is dead?"

"right."

The visitor nodded repeatedly.

"What's going on?"

Xiao Chen said this and walked quickly outside without waiting for the person to answer.

Xie Gan is dead?

How could this old guy die?

Death surprised him more than running away!

"We went to the dungeon just now and found him lying on the ground. We thought he was asleep, but then we felt something was wrong. When we got closer, we found that he was dead."

The person followed behind, jogging all the way, explaining the situation.

"What happened before that? What happened?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"That's what happened when we went to see him this morning. We thought he was asleep..."

The people who came were worried. They were guarding Xie Gan, but now he was dead, so they couldn't escape responsibility.

“…”

Xiao Chen's heart sank. Does that mean Xie Gan died last night?

He didn't ask any more questions and quickened his pace.

Soon, he arrived at the dungeon.

"Master!"

There were two people guarding the dungeon door. When they saw Xiao Chen coming in, they knelt down in panic.

"stand up."

Xiao Chen threw down a sentence and entered the dungeon, and saw Xie Gan lying on the ground at a glance.

He walked quickly forward and with a light touch, Xie Gan fell to the ground, face up.

Xie Gan was staring with a look of pain on his face.

The body has become stiff.

Xiao Chen frowned. Is he really dead?

He made a quick inspection and then looked around, but there were no signs of a fight.

Homicide?

Or suicide?

Xiao Chen felt that it was unlikely to be suicide.

Even if this old guy's mentality collapsed, there was no need for him to commit suicide.

If I wanted to commit suicide, I wouldn't have acted and negotiated with him before.

"Ruling out the possibility of suicide, but homicide..."

Xiao Chen's thoughts flashed through his mind and he looked at the person at the door.

"Did anything happen last night?"

"No."

Several people shook their heads.

"We all take turns to rest. There are at least two people on duty. We didn't hear any movement."

Xiao Chen nodded. If someone came to kill Xie Gan, they should not only kill Xie Gan, but also the guards outside.

But now, the guard is fine, but Xie Gan is dead, which is a bit unreasonable.

This is a dungeon with only one entrance and exit. There is no possibility of entering from anywhere else.

What kind of strong man could enter the dungeon silently and kill Xie Gan silently?

"Xie Gan's Dantian and meridians are sealed now. He has no strength at all. Any ancient warrior can kill him, but he shouldn't be silent at all."

Xiao Chen felt that there were too many contradictions in Xie Gan’s death.

"Suicide is impossible, and homicide... it doesn't meet the conditions either. It's hard to explain. How did that person die?"

Xiao Chen thought of something, grabbed Xie Gan's body, activated the "Chaos Technique", and his internal energy poured in.

He was wondering if there was any poison or something like that.

"If we use a powerful Gu to kill Xie Gan silently, it is possible..."

Xiao Chen was thinking while examining Xie Gan's body.

To his disappointment, nothing was found.

"If he didn't die of poisoning, then if he died of the insect, then he killed Xie Gan and then left?"

Xiao Chen muttered to himself, his eyes a little cold.

Was it done by the Sun Moon Divine Sect?

Did they silence Xie Gan?

But what kind of strong person can hide from everyone and quietly enter Kunyu Gate to kill people?

Or rather...

Xiao Chen's eyes flashed. Are there people from the Sun and Moon Sect in Kunyu Sect? Or should I say, people from the Holy Heaven Sect?

If that's the case, that would explain it.

Someone has been hiding, looking for an opportunity to kill Xie Gan!

As for how to avoid the guards outside, this is not too difficult. After all, the guards are not that strong, so there are ways to avoid them.

At least he could enter the dungeon and kill Xie Gan without alerting the guards!

"Carry his body outside."

Xiao Chen ordered.

"Also, notify Patriarch Xiao and the others."

"yes."

The guard nodded quickly.

After Xie Gan's body was carried away, Xiao Chen searched the dungeon again but found nothing unusual.

"It's a pity that Old Yan and his team are gone, otherwise they could have played a more useful role."

Xiao Chen exited the dungeon and came outside.

"Master, we..."

The guard wanted to explain something.

"No need to explain, I believe you."

Xiao Chen looked at them and said.

After hearing Xiao Chen's words, the guards' eyes turned red. They were moved by Xiao Chen's trust.

"Did this old guy do anything unusual last night?"

Xiao Chen looked at Xie Gan again and asked.

"No, you gave instructions, and he complied, so we served him well with good food and drink... We didn't scold him or provoke him."

The guard shook his head.

"What's going on?"

Without waiting for Xiao Chen to speak, Xiao Yi and others hurried over.

"Thank you for being so good."

Xiao Chen said.

"It's probably not suicide, but homicide cannot be ruled out."

"Can't rule out homicide?"

Xiao Yi and the others were stunned, and then their faces changed slightly.

No matter who killed him, things will not be simple.

"Did you find anything?"

Long Zhuifeng asked in a deep voice.

"There were no signs of a fight, and he didn't die of poisoning."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"The heart veins are damaged. I haven't examined them carefully yet."

"First determine the cause of death."

Long Zhuifeng looked at Xie Gan's body with a serious expression.

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded.

Soon, Jiang Lingyun and others came over.

The news of Xie Gan's death spread.

"How could he die?"

Jiang Lingyun and others were very surprised.

"The cause cannot be determined yet, but suicide can be ruled out..."

Xiao Chen replied.

After hearing Xiao Chen's words, Jiang Lingyun and others' faces changed.

If he committed homicide, the situation would be serious.

Outsider?

Or are there people from the Sun Moon Sect or the Holy Heaven Sect among them?

Whether the former or the latter, it is enough for them to take it seriously.

Especially the latter!

"Let Xiao Chen find out the cause of his death first, and then consider other things. Otherwise, no matter how much we speculate, it will be useless."

Long Zhuifeng said in a deep voice.

Everyone nodded and stopped talking.

Xiao Chen took out a silver needle and pierced it into Xie Gan's body. After checking, he was completely sure that he did not die of poisoning.

Afterwards, he opened his spiritual consciousness, and his internal energy surged in, traveling along his meridians, passing through his dantian, and finally stopping at his heart.

"The heart veins are severely damaged..."

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, pulled open Xie Gan's shirt, and observed him carefully.

There were no signs of external trauma, and it didn't look like the heart was shattered by external force.

"Did the insect destroy the heart meridian?"

Xiao Chen frowned. There are thousands of ways to kill people, and many of them can kill people silently.

Especially killing an 'ordinary person'.

He carefully examined Xie Gan's body again, especially some wounds, to see if there were any signs that the poisonous insects had entered.

To his disappointment, nothing was found.

"The poisonous insects can almost be eliminated..."

Xiao Chen shook his head, his eyes fell on Xie Gan's pale face again, and an idea flashed through his mind.

"Not really?"

Xiao Chen muttered something, thought about it, took out his cell phone and made a call.

He needs to verify it.
