"Your Majesty, you've finally returned!"
Feng Xiaotian choked up and wept.
The Human Emperor has half divine blood, but it is the purest divine blood!
Therefore, for the Divine Blood, Lin Yu represents orthodoxy, faith, and even more so, a totem and hope.
Upon seeing Lin Yu's return, everyone in the Divine Blood Sect was excited and overjoyed, some even weeping with joy.
The feeling was as if Sun Wukong had returned to Flower Fruit Mountain and told the children, "I'm back!"
For those practicing ancient martial arts, however, there was some tension.
Although Lin Yu also possesses ancient martial arts blood, the Yun family has been destroyed, and the Tang and Tantai families maintained a neutral stance back then, not being particularly close to Lin Yu. His previous actions also had a strong element of currying favor. However, whether these connections will be effective in the face of right and wrong is uncertain.
But they were overthinking it. As the Human Emperor, Lin Yu always upheld fairness and justice, treating both divine blood and ancient martial arts equally.
Now that both sides are about to harm each other, he is naturally biased towards both sides, as they are both his flesh and blood.
“Patriarch Tang, there must be some misunderstanding in this matter. If you trust me, how about leaving it to me to handle?” Lin Yu said to Tang Peng.
Tang Peng was slightly taken aback. Since the Human Emperor had spoken, what could he say?
“I believe the Emperor is fair, but the matter is already clear. Even Liu Huan died in Feng Wan’er’s room. She clearly wanted to kill him to silence him!” Tang Peng hesitated for a moment, but still argued his case.
"Does his death in my room necessarily prove I'm the murderer? You're being completely unreasonable!"
Feng Wan'er couldn't hold back any longer and couldn't help but shout it out.
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback when he saw Feng Wan'er.
As expected of sisters, this girl does bear a striking resemblance to Feng Hongye.
Thinking of Feng Hongye, Lin Yu couldn't help but feel a little sad.
To bear the divine punishment for himself, the other party perished, leaving only his primordial spirit to be nurtured by his own heart's blood.
This can be called a lifelong pain.
He would never be able to live in peace if he couldn't save Feng Hongye.
Fortunately, he has now cultivated a Nascent Soul, which has the effect of nurturing the primordial spirit. When the opportunity comes, he may be able to try to reshape Feng Hongye's physical body.
However, Gu Wu was not buying Feng Wan'er's explanation.
"Someone died in your room, and you're still being stubborn? You're utterly absurd!"
"Wasn't it you who whipped our young master Tantai?"
"That willful and capricious vile woman!"
Everyone believed that Feng Wan'er killed Liu Huan in a fit of rage, and then kidnapped and killed him to silence him.
"Don't jump to conclusions yet, let me see the body first!" Lin Yu suggested.
He couldn't help but shake his head, feeling a headache coming on.
The entire Southern Continent is facing a major crisis. It is unknown how long the city of Bingdong can hold out. Yet these people are still arguing over such a trivial matter. The martial world is indeed a place of right and wrong.
Where there are people, there will be conflict.
Lin Yu sighed inwardly for a moment, and then followed the others to Feng Wan'er's room.
Liu Huan is indeed dead, completely dead, with a whip wrapped around him and hanging from a beam.
He looked like a hanged ghost.
This whip naturally belongs to Feng Wan'er and is the biggest piece of evidence at the scene.
Judging from the course of events, the time, location, and physical evidence are all there.
The only thing missing is witness testimony.
Liu Huan is dead. If no second witness can be found, this case seems to be a dead end.
But with Lin Yu around, he will never let it become a dead case.
Soon, everyone arrived at Feng Wan'er's room.
As soon as I entered the room, I smelled a faint woman's fragrance.
Lin Yu frowned, then turned to look at Feng Wan'er. "Do you usually like using incense?"
Feng Wan'er was slightly taken aback, and before she could speak, Feng Xiaotian said, "Wan'er likes incense, and she's a master of it!"
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, but then said nothing and walked straight into the room.
At this moment, a white sheet covers the ground, and the outline under the sheet reveals that it is a corpse.
A faint smell of decay wafted over, but the scent of incense just masked it.
However, Lin Yu still managed to notice it.
"Human Emperor, do we need to perform an autopsy?" Tang Peng asked from the side.
Lin Yu shook his head. "No need for an examination. The murderer is not Feng Wan'er!"
Everyone was stunned, even Feng Wan'er was somewhat surprised.
The white sheet hasn't even been lifted yet, and they're already saying they know the murderer? What kind of operation is this?
"Human Emperor, you are showing a bit too much favoritism towards the Divine Bloodline!" Tantai Guanlan's old body trembled as he gritted his teeth and glared. He dared not show it too obviously, trying his best to control his emotions, after all, he was facing the Human Emperor. But he couldn't control himself, after all, it was his own son who had died.
The other martial arts practitioners also looked very unhappy.
Because in everyone's eyes, Lin Yu was biased towards Feng Wan'er. If the Emperor were truly fair and just, he should have performed an autopsy before speaking.
But who can argue with the Emperor's reputation when he's the emperor? Even if he calls a deer a horse, who would dare to question him?
Lin Yu swept over the group of disgruntled people and couldn't help but shake his head. "I know you have doubts, but there's no need to. Although I didn't lift the sheet to examine the body, I could sense a putrid smell in it. This is left by practicing evil cultivation techniques. Therefore, the person who killed Liu Huan must have been an evil cultivator!"
"The smell of decay?"
Everyone was slightly taken aback. Apart from Lin Yu, no one else present could smell the rotten odor.
Firstly, the person who did it must have been highly skilled, enough to conceal the smell. Secondly, the faint scent of incense in the room would also confuse the senses.
