For a past promise, Xiao Chen makes a powerful return, becoming the personal bodyguard to a beautiful CEO. He sweeps aside all enemies, forging his own legend as a true king!
He climbs to the...
Xiao Chen called Han Yifei.
Unable to connect.
"Well, not yet..."
Xiao Chen muttered something, sent a message to Han Yifei, and put away his phone.
"Have you found out the reason?"
Xiao Yi asked.
"It's not completely certain yet, but suicide can be ruled out."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"As for homicide... the probability is not high."
"Not likely? What do you mean? It wasn't murder?"
Xiao Yi and others were stunned. It wasn't suicide, and it was most likely not homicide. So how did he die?
They looked at Xie Gan’s old face. What happened? Did he die of old age?
"Don't tell me he died suddenly."
Xiao Yi said.
"Even if his Dantian and meridians were sealed, and he had used a forbidden move before, which made him look much older, his physical fitness is definitely not comparable to that of an ordinary person."
"It won't lead to sudden death."
Xiao Chen shook his head and was about to say something when his cell phone rang.
He took it out and saw that it was Han Yifei calling.
"Hey, Yifei."
Xiao Chen answered the phone.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong?"
Han Yifei's puzzled voice came from the receiver.
"What happened that made me call you the first thing I did as soon as I got off the plane?"
"Thank you for being so good."
Xiao Chen said.
"Who died? Hmm? The Moon Reverend Xie Gan?"
Han Yifei didn't react at first, then her tone became surprised.
"How could he die?"
"Who's dead? Who's dead..."
Su Xiaomeng's voice came from the receiver again.
Obviously, the people over there also heard what Han Yifei said.
"Who knows? I'm trying to determine the cause of his death."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Give the phone to Lao Yan. I have something I want to ask him..."
"good."
Han Yifei didn't waste any words and handed over the phone.
"Mr. Xiao..."
Soon, the voice of the novel fan came from the receiver.
"Old Yan, I have something to ask you..."
Xiao Chen asked.
"You suspect someone has killed Xie Gan, and you want to confirm whether there are any traces of the murderer on your body?"
Fans of the novel understand.
"right."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"How did you do it?"
"Mr. Xiao, we will go back immediately."
The novel fan said immediately.
"Don't bother. I have all the equipment here. Just teach me and I'll operate it. You've taught me before, but not in such detail."
Xiao Chen said.
"Or we can start a video call and you can give remote instructions."
“That… is fine.”
The novel fan hesitated for a moment, then agreed immediately.
After the two chatted for a few more words, Xiao Chen hung up the phone and pointed at Xie Gan's body: "Carry it to the temporary studio."
"yes."
Someone responded and came forward to lift up Xie Gan's body.
"what are you up to?"
Xiao Yi asked.
"Wait a minute, I'll give you an explanation."
Xiao Chen said as he walked towards the temporary studio.
"He probably wanted to use those devices to determine whether it was homicide."
Long Zhuifeng looked at Xiao Chen's back and spoke slowly.
"It's not suicide, it's not homicide, so the problem lies with Xie Gan..."
"As long as it's not homicide, the problem is not that serious."
Jiang Lingyun said in a deep voice.
"otherwise……"
He didn't finish his words, but everyone present understood his meaning.
They looked at each other, who could be the murderer?
Or has he already left Kunyu Gate?
"Please don't think too much for now and add some misunderstandings."
Long Zhuifeng said again.
"Let's wait for Xiao Chen to determine the cause of his death."
"Um."
Everyone nodded.
"You are guards, right?"
Long Zhuifeng looked at the guard and asked.
"Yes, Lord Dragon."
The guard replied respectfully.
"Was there anything unusual last night..."
After asking around, Long Zhuifeng didn't get any useful information.
In the temporary studio, Xiao Chen took out the equipment from the bone ring, made all the preparations, and made a video call.
The novel fan introduced the operation steps in detail and remotely commanded it, which Xiao Chen found quite novel.
He had heard about it before, but it was different to actually do it.
"Mr. Xiao, please give it a try. There is no problem with the steps. It should work."
After more than half an hour, the novel fan said.
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"That's it for now, I'm busy now."
"Okay, if there's a need, we can always go back."
The novel fan said seriously.
"Haha, it's just a small matter, so I won't bother you to make another trip... I have my own way of judging, I just want to be more sure."
Xiao Chen smiled, said a few more words, and then hung up the phone.
Then he continued to operate and soon became immersed in it.
"This is my trace. Whose trace is this? Hmm, this position should be guarded..."
An hour later, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then called the guard in and compared them.
"really……"
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, glanced at Xie Gan's body, and left.
"It can almost be ruled out that he was murdered. His death was caused by himself."
Xiao Chen arrived at the main hall and found that everyone was there. He didn't waste any words and directly stated the conclusion.
"Self-inflicted?"
Everyone was surprised. Could it be that he really died suddenly from staying up late?
"His Dantian and meridians were sealed, and he lost his fighting power... He wanted to leave, so naturally he wanted to recover his fighting power."
Xiao Chen explained.
"So, he tried to break the restriction by himself, but ended up killing himself."
“…”
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, everyone was stunned. They wanted to break the restriction and then kill themselves?
This... is a bit magical, right?
But after thinking about it again, they all nodded, saying that this possibility existed.
Moreover, the probability of death is not low.
"There was only pain on his face, no other expression, which means he didn't see the murderer... If he had killed him, he would definitely have reacted."
Xiao Chen said again.
"In addition to what I just said, there are other possibilities, but they are beyond my understanding..."
"It was just a false alarm?"
Prime Minister Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, we didn't kill anyone, and there's no murderer among us. It was indeed a false alarm."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"call……"
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a Zou Xiangming hiding in Kunyu Gate before. We just dealt with him, and now there’s another one?
Who can stand this!
“What a pity.”
Xiao Chen thought of something and shook his head again.
He was also thinking about asking Xie Gan about the matters of the Sun and Moon Altar, including the Sun and Moon Sect's formation.
As the Moon Venerable, he has a very high status and it is impossible for him to know nothing.
Now that Xie Gan is dead, there is nothing we can find out about him.
"A powerful seventh-level warrior actually died in my hands..."
Some people feel a little emotional and sigh.
"If you want to escape, you must restore your strength..."
"Yeah, but as long as it wasn't murder."
"Um."
“…”
Everyone's expressions were obviously much more relaxed.
They didn't care whether Xie Gan lived or died.
As long as there is no murderer hiding, that's enough.
"Now that the cause of Xie Gan's death has been determined, let's end this matter here."
Long Zhuifeng said.
"What we have to do is continue to look for the teleportation array."
"Um."
Everyone nodded.
After chatting for a few sentences, everyone dispersed.
"Did he really die in an accident?"
Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Or, can't you say it in public?"
"It was an accident."
Xiao Chen replied.
"I didn't expect this to happen, but all the murder methods I know of have been ruled out..."
"Okay, let it be an accident. It's not the worst outcome."
Xiao Yi took a sip of tea.
"Otherwise, whether it is an outsider who silenced the witnesses or the murderer hiding in Kunyu Gate, it is enough for us to be cautious."
"yes."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Old Xie is such a jerk. I told him that as long as he cooperated with me, I would spare his life and let him go... Why didn't he believe it? Now he wants to escape secretly, but he ends up losing his life."
"It can be seen that he doesn't believe your words at all, so he took such a big risk."
Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Alas, I am a person who values integrity the most. I will always keep my word... He may have some misunderstandings about me."
Xiao Chen said seriously.
“…”
Xiao Yi was speechless. Don't even mention Xie Gan. I even misunderstood him.
"Since Xie Gan's death was an accident, there's no need to dwell on it too much. Just deal with his body and continue doing our work."
Long Zhuifeng said.
"The important thing right now is the teleportation array."
"Well, I'll have him buried."
Xiao Chen thought about it and said.
"At least you cooperated with us, so you don't have to leave your body exposed in the wilderness..."
"You kid, are you so kind?"
Xiao Yi curled his lips.
"Death is the greatest thing."
Xiao Chen stood up.
"I'll go make the arrangements."
"Go ahead."
Long Zhuifeng nodded.
"You guys, dig a hole and bury Xie Gan..."
Xiao Chen came outside and found a few guards.
"This is your punishment. Even though it has nothing to do with you, he is dead after all."
"Yes, Master."
Several guards looked relieved. If Xiao Chen hadn't given them some "punishment", they would have been really unsure.
"Master, where should we bury him? In the Kunyu Sect's cemetery?"
Someone asked.
"Do you think it's appropriate? Aren't you afraid they'll crawl out and start fighting again?"
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"Kunyu Mountain is so big, just pick a place at random."
"Understood."
The man nodded.
"He is an important figure after all. Let's carve a stone tablet for him."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Go ahead."
"yes."
Several guards responded and walked away quickly.
"Old Xie, Old Xie, isn't it nice of me to do this?"
Xiao Chen looked in the direction of the temporary studio and muttered.
He only felt regret for Xie Gan's death, without any sympathy, let alone anything else.
In other words, 'death is the greatest thing', otherwise he would have to say 'it served him right', it was the old guy's fault for not believing him!
He really intended to let Xie Gan go, but of course, he had to destroy his martial arts.
"Xiao Gen, come on, accompany me to patrol the mountains."
Xiao Chen took out the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth from the bone ring, let it sit on his shoulder, and then went into the mountain.
"#%..."
The Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth sat on Xiao Chen's shoulders with his legs hanging down, looking very leisurely.
"You're acting like this, making me feel like I'm your pet... No, I'm your donkey, and I have to carry you."
Xiao Chen felt a little angry when he saw the leisurely appearance of the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth.
"Tell me, where is your ability? Hurry up and find the teleportation array. I will work like a slave for you!"
