After hearing Xiao Chen's words, the experts from Qingyun Tower looked at each other and nodded.
This is just a small favor. They have no conflict with Xiao Chen, so there is no need to stop them.
Besides, it's human nature, who would stop you?
If he finds anything, the murderer can be found earlier.
Zhao Cangqiong saw that the people from Qingyun Tower had no objection and would not stop him: "Okay, I'll take you there."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked at Gongsun Zhen with a provocative look.
"What? Is this something you can stop? If you admit that you killed him, then you have the right to stop me."
“…”
Gongsun Zhen glared at Xiao Chen. He decided to kill this little bastard as soon as possible!
Originally, he was thinking about dealing with the Shengtian Sect's affairs first, and then killing Xiao Chen.
In other words, he didn't have to do anything at all, because the Great Venerable Lie Snake could kill Xiao Chen just to break the sword.
But after waiting for so long... Xiao Chen is still alive.
This Great Lord Fierce Snake is not a man who can get things done!
"Let's go, let's go and have a look together, maybe we can find something new."
Zhao Cangqiong greeted and walked inside.
Everyone thought about it and followed.
Soon, they arrived at the place where Wu Qingming was 'imprisoned'.
It’s called detention, but in fact it’s more like house arrest.
Given Wu Qingming's identity and status, especially since it has not been confirmed that he is a member of the Demon Cult, it is impossible to really lock him up in jail.
This is the guest room, where Wu Qingming is temporarily placed under house arrest.
Since it is the guest room of the City Lord's Mansion, it is naturally good in all aspects... There are also quite a few guards transferred by Zhao Cangqiong.
But even in this situation, Wu Qingming was still killed!
Zhao Cangqiong was also very annoyed and unhappy.
Not only did he kill Wu Qingming, he also slapped Zhao Cangqiong in the face!
Killing someone on his territory is really embarrassing for him!
"City Lord Zhao, I heard that Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang were also imprisoned in the City Lord's Mansion? Where are they?"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen asked.
"They are over there, some distance away from here."
Zhao Cangqiong pointed to the guest room on the other side and said.
"oh."
Xiao Chen took a look and saw that there was about a hundred meters between them.
Not too close, but not too far either.
"If it was really the Great Venerable Fierce Snake who killed people, then there is no reason for him not to kill Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang...the two of them escaped from the Great Venerable Fierce Snake. Now they are only about a hundred meters away, so he can kill them in passing."
Xiao Chen retracted his gaze and said.
"After all, they are not as strong as Elder Wu. He can kill Elder Wu, so why can't he kill them? Unless they are 'his own people', then he will let them go."
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, everyone was stunned and their expressions changed slightly.
Before, their minds were all on Wu Qingming, and they really didn't think about Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang.
Now that Xiao Chen has reminded me of this, I realize... it is indeed the case.
If it were them, if the captured person ran away and they had the chance to kill him, how could they let him go?
It must be killed!
But Gongsun Zhen's old face suddenly changed.
Although Xiao Chen's words seemed like an analysis, he actually kicked Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang into the abyss.
These words are almost as lethal as Lu Hongyun's previous words.
Originally, Wu Qingming was dead and no one cared about Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang. After his operation, the matter was over.
Now, Xiao Chen has pushed them to the forefront again...
As long as they suspect that Great Venerable Fierce Snake killed someone, they cannot explain why he did not kill Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang.
Unless...like Xiao Chen said, they are 'our own people'.
"That's great. Young people are really smart. You can think of things that we can't, and they make sense."
Without waiting for Gongsun Zhen to say anything, Lu Hongyun clapped his hands and made the final move.
“…”
Gongsun Zhen's heart sank, something bad was going to happen!
"City Lord Zhao, Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang, if you can't figure it out, you can let us at Qingyun Tower investigate... This involves the death of Elder Wu."
As expected, Elder Qian said coldly.
His words seemed to be directed to Zhao Cangqiong, but actually they were directed to Gongsun Zhen.
"Don't even think about it!"
Gongsun Zhen narrowed his eyes.
"They are from my Gongsun family. I'll see who dares to touch them!"
"The City Lord's Mansion will investigate this matter thoroughly, please rest assured."
After all, Gongsun Zhen was one of the four forces, so Zhao Cangqiong had to defend him.
"Either they are from the Holy Heaven Sect, or they are the ones who killed Elder Wu. It is highly likely that they are not the Great Venerable Fierce Snake..."
Xiao Chen said as he walked forward.
He still suspected Gongsun Zhen, and he said this in order to trick Gongsun Zhen.
At this time, the one who is most likely to pass the blame is the Shengtian Sect.
If Gongsun Zhen really killed the person, then he would definitely hand it over to the Holy Heaven Sect...
But now, he has blocked the way. Gongsun Zhen dares to put the blame on Shengtian Sect, so the identities of Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang must be thoroughly investigated!
“Gah gah gah…”
Gongsun Zhen almost bit his teeth off when he looked at Xiao Chen's back.
He really wanted to rush forward and chop Xiao Chen to death with one powerful blow!
"Chen Xiao, it's right here... At that time, there were six guards here, just like now."
Zhao Cangqiong introduced.
"It was still morning. I saw nothing was wrong, so I withdrew four of them... Last night, there were ten guards."
"If we really want to kill someone, no matter how many guards we have, it won't help."
Xiao Chen shook his head. It seemed that Zhao Cangqiong was also worried that something might happen to Wu Qingming, so he sent so many people to guard him.
"Yes, I thought it would be safe enough in the City Lord's Mansion... There are still strong people in this City Lord's Mansion."
Zhao Cangqiong was also somewhat helpless.
They talked and walked in.
When the door opened, Xiao Chen saw Wu Qingming slumped in the chair, and his heart skipped a beat.
Wu Qingming was leaning back in his chair. There was a teacup on the table next to him. He was obviously drinking tea.
At this moment, he stared with his eyes wide open, as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying.
It just so happened that the direction he was staring at was the door… When he opened the door and came in, he saw a dead person staring at him, which was scary enough.
"Damn, with that expression, it's impossible for him to commit suicide."
Xiao Chen cursed inwardly and walked in slowly.
He looked around and it seemed that everything here remained the same as before and was not damaged.
"You know how to protect a murder scene."
Xiao Chen muttered again and came in front of Wu Qingming.
“That’s what we found when we came here.”
Zhao Cangqiong said slowly.
"Until the murderer is found, this will be kept here temporarily to prevent any clues from being destroyed."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. However, from the perspective of the people from the Mother Realm, with so many people entering the murder scene and trampling all over the place, many clues would inevitably be destroyed.
"Would you like to see if there are any other fingerprints or something like that?"
Xiao Chen thought of the equipment in the bone ring, but when he looked at the group of people behind him, he gave up the idea.
Not to mention that it cannot be taken out, even if you really try, you can't get it out.
Whether it's fingerprints or footprints... there are probably dozens of them.
"The door was closed at the time, and they were guarding outside..."
Zhao Cangqiong said again.
"Then how did you find out he was dead?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"Because there has been no movement for a while, they are afraid that Senior Wu will leave, so... they will check on him from time to time."
Zhao Cangqiong said 'euphemistically'.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. If you want to run away, just run away. Why leave?
Obviously, this was Zhao Cangqiong's instruction, asking them to keep an eye on Wu Qingming.
"The door was closed, the windows were closed... and the windows were facing the direction of the guards. There was no movement."
Xiao Chen looked at the layout of the room and analyzed it secretly.
"He really killed someone so quietly... Damn, that's a bit scary."
Soon, Xiao Chen's gaze fell on Wu Qingming again.
Wu Qingming did not die suddenly. His expression was enough to prove what he had been through.
"The soul is scattered, and the divine palace is damaged..."
Xiao Chen thought about it, and released his spiritual sense to cover Wu Qingming.
This method was something he had never seen before, and he wanted to study it carefully.
It's not to find the murderer, but to get some experience and be prepared.
What if... someone kills him like this?
What's more, he also suspected that Wu Qingming's death was related to Gongsun Zhen.
Gongsun Zhen wants to kill him all the time and has such means, so he shouldn't be careful?
Zhao Cangqiong and others nearby noticed Xiao Chen's consciousness and were secretly surprised.
His soul is so strong?
This was something none of them had expected.
Gongsun Zhen wanted to stop Xiao Chen, but after hesitating, he did nothing.
He was afraid that if he did something else, Xiao Chen would say he was guilty and that he was the murderer...
Besides, he didn't think Xiao Chen could see anything.
Xiao Chen's spiritual sense fell on Wu Qingming, feeling him carefully.
"The divine palace is damaged, which means the upper dantian is damaged..."
Xiao Chen had never studied it before, so now he could only try to do something.
He thought of the 'Snake God'. At that time, he was standing in the skull of the 'Snake God' and established a connection with his divine palace.
Then he thought of Chi Li again. This woman was a powerful spiritual cultivator... Could she use her spirit to leave her body and kill people thousands of miles away?
The answer...most likely is yes.
"Impossible. Although I don't know how strong Chili is, he is still a top-level existence even in the Heaven Beyond Heaven... Such an existence would not come to secretly kill Wu Qingming."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"In other words, maybe it wasn't the top experts who took action, but some other means? Could it achieve a similar effect?
Xiao Chen felt Wu Qingming carefully, and only felt coldness, without a trace of spiritual fluctuation.
Indeed, the soul was scattered and no trace was left.
There is no Wu Qingming in this world anymore.
Soon, he noticed something unusual again.
“Is this the damage to the Divine Palace?”
Xiao Chen thought about it, slowly raised his hand, and pressed his fingers like swords on Wu Qingming's brow.
He closed his eyes again to strengthen his spiritual perception.
When everyone saw Xiao Chen's actions, they frowned slightly. What was he doing?
Could it be that he could really find new clues, or even the murderer?
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Xiao Chen with some anticipation in his heart. Maybe he could give him a surprise?
"A violent spiritual energy instantly tore apart Wu Qingming's soul..."
Xiao Chen sensed and muttered to himself.
