No man's land.
Dungeon.
"ah!"
A shrill scream came from the pool.
Chili's soul became much weaker, his long hair was flying, and his aura was terrifying.
The big scorpion showed its head again, glanced at the red fox, shook its body, and quickly shrank back into the water.
It could feel that the red fox was very scary at the moment, so it had to stay away from it as much as possible.
"Nine-tailed Fox, I will never stand against you... Next time, either you die or I live!"
The red fox roared continuously, and the water in the pool boiled even more violently.
The battle just now had left her seriously injured, even to the point of damage.
It cannot be recovered in a short period of time.
"And Xiao Chen, you dare to betray me... Sooner or later, I will make you wish you were dead!"
The underground city was filled with the furious roar of the red raccoon.
She had no idea that what she was facing was not the Nine-Tailed Fox, but the God-Destroying Arrow!
What she didn't know was that part of her soul power was devoured by Xiao Chen, making his soul even more powerful!
…
In Sifang City, Xiao Chen couldn't suppress his murderous intent.
Gongsun Zhen is definitely injured, this is a good opportunity to kill!
However, when his eyes swept over the strong men of Shanhai Tower, he suppressed his murderous intent.
Once he makes a move, the strong men of Shanhai Tower will definitely take action.
He can't win when he's outnumbered.
Not only the strong men of Shanhai Tower, but also Zhao Cangqiong and others would not let him kill Gongsun Zhen like this!
After all, Gongsun Zhen represents Shanhai Tower, one of the four forces in Sifang City.
"Chen Xiao, you keep provoking Shanhailou. Do you think Shanhailou can't do anything to you?"
Gongsun Zhen's voice was cold and murderous.
He didn't plan to take action himself, because behind him... there was a strong man from Shanhai Tower.
These strong men came for Shengtian Sect and also for Xiao Chen!
No matter how strong Xiao Chen is, he can't stop so many strong men!
He didn't believe it. Xiao Chen wasn't hurt at all!
"Chen Xiao, what happened just now?"
Zhao Cangqiong would not let a major conflict break out between the two, so he came up to Xiao Chen and asked.
"I was practicing just now, and suddenly I felt an external force appear, trying to tear my soul apart."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"The person who killed Wu Qingming has appeared."
"Humph, even Wu Qingming couldn't stop it, how can you stop it?"
Gongsun Zhen snorted coldly and temporarily suppressed his murderous intent.
He also wanted to know how Xiao Chen survived.
"none of your business."
Xiao Chen retorted.
"You must be very disappointed, right? Not only did you fail to kill me, but you also suffered backlash and got injured."
"I don't understand what you are saying."
Gongsun Zhen's old face sank.
"Don't pretend. You're the one who killed Wu Qingming. You're also the one who killed me..."
Xiao Chen sneered, his eyes sweeping over the strong men in Qingyun Tower.
He knew that he could not kill Gongsun Zhen by himself.
At least in Sifang City, in front of so many powerful people from Shanhai Tower, there is no chance.
But if Qingyun Tower takes action and helps him stop those strong men, then there would be a possibility!
Therefore, he had to direct the topic to Wu Qingming and confirm Gongsun Zhen's identity as the murderer!
Sure enough, after hearing Xiao Chen's words, the strong men of Qingyun Tower all looked at Gongsun Zhen.
They had long suspected Gongsun Zhen, but had no evidence.
"What do you mean by cultivation and becoming possessed? With your level of cultivation, how could you easily become possessed and get hurt?"
Xiao Chen sneered.
"Could it be that all your years of practice have resulted in your becoming a dog?"
"Chen Xiao, you're looking for death!"
Gongsun Zhen took a step forward, his murderous intent even stronger.
The strong men from Shanhai Tower also looked at Xiao Chen unkindly with cold expressions.
"Chen Xiao, tell me about the danger you encountered first."
Zhao Cangqiong shook his head slightly, signaling him not to continue staring at Gongsun Zhen.
"I felt my soul being torn apart, but luckily I had my master's secret method, so I escaped... City Lord Zhao, Wu Qingming is dead, and I was also attacked."
Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Cangqiong and said in a deep voice.
"This murderer definitely has a magic weapon that can kill the soul. Not everyone has the secret method of a master like me, so they can escape the disaster."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Zhao Cangqiong's heart skipped a beat and he felt a sense of crisis.
"In addition, as far as I know, Gongsun Zhen obtained such a magic weapon many years ago."
Xiao Chen looked at Gongsun Zhen again. He had not planned to say anything at first, but now he couldn't care less.
"What?"
"Spiritual treasure?"
“…”
Everyone's expression changed slightly and they all looked at Gongsun Zhen.
Gongsun Zhen's heart sank. How did he know that?
Those who knew about this matter at the time... are all dead!
This is a secret, one of his biggest secrets!
"Chen Xiao, you are talking nonsense!"
Gongsun Zhen shouted angrily. He knew that this could not be admitted.
"Am I talking nonsense? Oh, whether I am or not, you know it best."
Xiao Chen sneered.
"Everyone who knew about this matter has left Sifang City... Of course, you may have killed them to silence them."
"You actually made up such a lie to deal with me... Yes, you started planning since Wu Qingming's death. We all thought that the murder was caused by the soul leaving the body, but you said that such a magic weapon was involved..."
Gongsun Zhen said coldly.
"At that time, you were thinking of slandering me. What a scheming person... I really can't let you go!"
"Lord City Lord, there is nothing found nearby..."
At this time, the law enforcers also came back to report.
"Nothing?"
Zhao Cangqiong frowned.
"Yes."
The law enforcer nodded.
"Humph, everything that happened tonight was staged by Chen Xiao himself, just to frame me and put the blame for Wu Qingming's death on me."
Gongsun Zhen snorted coldly.
"Wu Qingming is dead, and if he is attacked again, then the suspect is naturally me... He was attacked? Does he look like he was attacked? Where are his injuries? He was able to kill Wu Qingming, but he wasn't even injured? Do you believe it?"
Many people nodded. Indeed, Wu Qingming was dead, but Xiao Chen was not injured. This was a bit unreasonable.
They felt that what Xiao Chen said made sense, and what Gongsun Zhen said also made sense.
“…”
Xiao Chen was also a little speechless. He didn't expect Gongsun Zhen to bring this up.
But he was not injured. He just felt the severe pain of his soul being torn apart, but after consuming so much, he had already recovered.
Not only did he make up for it, he became even stronger!
"Chen Xiao, you can't explain it? I now suspect that it is very likely you who killed Wu Qingming. Otherwise, why would you stage this incident yourself? Sifang City has been in chaos since you came here."
Gongsun Zhen said again.
"Even if you are not a member of the Holy Heaven Sect, you must have some unspeakable secrets and conspiracy!"
“…”
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen, then at Gongsun Zhen. This old guy was talking nonsense... and he was actually right.
Wasn’t it Xiao Chen who caused the chaos in Sifang City?
Even the Holy Heaven Sect... died before they had time to do anything.
At the same time, he was a little puzzled. Xiao Chen had clearly been in great danger just now, but how come he didn't have any injuries at all?
What's going on?
Could it be that he really directed and acted in this film himself?
It shouldn't make such a big noise.
"Let's put this matter aside for now."
Zhao Cangqiong spoke slowly.
"As for the murderer, we still need to investigate thoroughly..."
"OK."
Xiao Chen thought about it and nodded.
It seems that Gongsun Zhen cannot be killed tonight.
It is impossible for the strong men in Qingyun Tower to rush up and fight to the death with Gongsun Zhen just because of a few words from him.
The most important thing is that in the battle during the day, Qingyun Tower was at a disadvantage and suffered greater losses.
They don’t have as many strong people in Sifang City as in Shanhai Tower.
"Everyone should disperse first... In addition, considering what happened with Chen Xiao, everyone should be careful."
Zhao Cangqiong raised his voice.
"good."
The powerful men nodded and dispersed.
Gongsun Zhen looked at Xiao Chen deeply, then left with the people from Shanhai Tower.
Xiao Chen looked at Gongsun Zhen's back and narrowed his eyes.
He was almost certain that the person who had just attacked him was Gongsun Zhen.
But at the moment, it’s hard to do anything.
This made him very unhappy, but the situation was stronger than he was.
"Don't look at it. You can't kill him in Sifang City."
Lu Hongyun came to Xiao Chen and said lightly.
"It must be him."
Xiao Chen retracted his gaze and said.
"Even if it's really him, there's no evidence, right? Without evidence, Zhao Cangqiong and the others won't let you kill him, not to mention Shanhailou."
Lu Hongyun shook his head.
"Don't be impatient. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."
"No, I prefer to avenge my grudges immediately. Ten years is too late. I can't wait."
Xiao Chen looked at Lu Hongyun and said seriously.
"Haha, there's no need to rush for that."
Lu Hongyun smiled.
"Aren't you going to Xuanyuan Realm next? Do you think Gongsun Zhen will go?"
Hearing Lu Hongyun's words, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed and he understood what he meant.
"Once you leave Sifang City, you will have more opportunities."
Lu Hongyun patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Young man, don't just look at what's in front of you, look one step further."
"hehe."
Xiao Chen also laughed.
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Lu. I'm grateful for your guidance."
"I didn't say anything."
Lu Hongyun waved his hand.
"Whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with me."
"What bad ideas are you giving Chen Xiao again?"
Zhao Cangqiong came over.
"Why are you talking? We're just chatting casually."
Lu Hongyun was not happy.
"By the way, Lao Zhao, I believe what Chen Xiao said."
"No evidence, what can we do?"
Zhao Cangqiong shook his head.
"Chen Xiao, tell me in detail what happened just now."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded. He knew that Zhao Cangqiong also suspected Gongsun Zhen.
However, Gongsun Zhen has a special identity and must be treated with caution.
"Brother Chen, are you really okay?"
Wang Pingbei also came up and asked.
"It's all right."
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei, smiled and shook his head.
"Thanks to you... But how did you find City Lord Zhao and the others so quickly?"
"Well, I didn't go to the City Lord's Mansion..."
Wang Pingbei told what had happened.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless, no wonder it was so fast!
But think about it again, even if they didn't come, Gongsun Zhen and Chi Li would probably be finished.
Regardless, tonight was a safe night and a blessing in disguise.
Not only did he escape the calamity, but his spirit and soul also became stronger.
As for Chili's methods, he couldn't say for the time being.
