Lin Yu's words surprised everyone.
Because in everyone's eyes, Liu Haoran died from a knife wound, so what does Alliance Leader Lin mean by this?
"Senior Lin, are you trying to protect Liu Jingwu? If that's the case, the Shadowless Sect will not allow it!"
Li Xin said angrily.
brush!
In an instant, all the disciples of the Shadowless Sect surrounded them.
"What are you trying to do? How dare you disrespect the leader of the martial arts alliance? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Liu Jingwu's grandson, Liu Yi, immediately shouted, and the disciples of Fenglei Martial Arts School all huddled together!
For a moment, tensions rose between the two sides.
Li Chengang frowned and waved his hand, saying, "I believe that Alliance Leader Lin is not a person who speaks carelessly. Alliance Leader Lin, since you say that my eldest disciple did not die from a knife wound, can you explain the cause of my disciple's death?"
Lin Yu glanced at him, nodded, and said, "Okay, but you have to put him down first and make sure he lies flat!"
Li Chengang was slightly taken aback, then waved his hand.
Several disciples hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and gently laid Liu Haoran's body flat.
Lin Yu stepped forward and touched Liu Haoran's body all over, finally fixing his gaze on Liu Haoran's neck.
Liu Haoran was a bit overweight, with many wrinkles on his neck. Lin Yu pulled the wrinkles aside, and immediately a very thin line of blood came into everyone's view!
"Uh, this..." Everyone looked surprised.
Even Li Chengang was greatly shocked.
The wound was so well hidden that even he didn't notice it!
Lin Yu shook his head and said calmly, "This is his fatal wound. The other party used a hidden weapon such as a thread to cut his throat, but in order to cover up this wound, before the deceased breathed his last, they inserted a knife into the artery of his heart. If we talk about cause and effect, the fatal wound is undoubtedly the thread wound in his throat!"
boom!
The scene erupted in uproar!
Those who were initially indignant are now convinced and mostly believe what Alliance Leader Lin said, because it makes perfect sense!
"Impossible! This is impossible!" Li Chengang exclaimed in disbelief. "If someone wanted to cut their throat with this thread without bleeding, how sharp would the thread have to be? Besides, this person's skill is probably beyond my reach!"
Li Chengang couldn't believe there was such a highly skilled person in the world!
Lin Yu said calmly, "Everyone has their own expertise. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't. Besides, the art of hidden weapons requires decades of immersion to even get started. Without a lineage, most people wouldn't bother learning it. But once you master it, you can stand out among your peers and even be invincible among martial artists of the same level!"
Li Chengang clenched his fists tightly. Although it was unbelievable, he had to admit that what Lin Yu said was very likely true. "As Alliance Leader Lin said, who exactly is the murderer?" Li Chengang gritted his teeth, wishing he could find the murderer immediately and tear him to pieces.
“I just remembered someone!” Liu Jingwu suddenly spoke up at this moment.
Li Chengang looked at him. Although the murderer had not been found, it was highly likely that someone had framed Fenglei Martial Arts School. He no longer harbored much hostility towards Liu Jingwu.
Liu Jingwu pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know if you've heard of her, but twenty years ago, there was a top-twenty master on the martial arts rankings named Red Buddha Hand. She rarely traveled the martial arts world, but every time she appeared, masters died mysteriously. It is said that her weapon was a golden thread that was invisible to the naked eye!"
"Red Buddha's Hand?"
Li Chengang's old eyes widened in surprise, and he immediately recalled that there was indeed such a person twenty years ago. However, this person had been out of the public eye for many years, and some juniors in the martial arts world had never even heard of him.
“This shouldn’t be the case. I have no grudge against Red Buddha Hand. Moreover, it is said that she has long since retired from the martial world. Why would she come to the pass to kill my disciple?” Li Chengang said with a puzzled look.
Liu Jingwu said calmly, "A person's life is nothing more than wealth, lust, fame and fortune. This person is most likely here for the Martial Arts Tournament. Everyone knows about the grudge between you and me. I suppose she also wants to use this method to make us both suffer heavy losses and clear the way for the Martial Arts Tournament in advance!"
"Despicable! What a vicious mind!!" Li Chengang was furious. He shouted to his disciples, "From now on, search the entire city for the whereabouts of Red Buddha's Hand. Report back immediately if you have any news! I want to avenge Haoran with my own hands!"
At this moment, Liu Jingwu also spoke up, "Disciples of Fenglei Martial Arts School, listen to my command: assist the Wuying Sect in finding the Red Buddha Hand. Report back immediately if you have any news!"
Li Chengang glanced at Liu Jingwu and said, "Jingwu, I wronged you in this matter. Thank you!"
Liu Jingwu snorted, "I was only trying to clear my name, I never intended to genuinely help you! I won't hold back at the Wulin Feng Tournament!"
Lin Yu gave a helpless, bitter smile.
He could tell that the two brothers still had some affection for each other. But when it came to a life-or-death situation, they might not be able to bring themselves to kill each other.
Let's not dwell on the grudges of the previous generation; in many ways, life is nothing more than obsession!
...
Just as the disciples of both factions were searching for the whereabouts of the Red Buddha's Hand.
Outside the city, in the desolate mountains stretching for miles, a middle-aged woman veiled in black stood on a hilltop gazing into the distance, her red dress fluttering in the wind.
Behind her knelt a stunningly beautiful woman in her twenties. She wore a thin cloth dress, which, although neat, showed signs of fading from washing. Her face was also thin and haggard.
After a long silence, the middle-aged woman finally spoke, asking in a cold tone, "Have you found my gold thread?"
