What's going on?
Upon seeing a handsome, unfamiliar man, Shushu was completely stunned and remained in a daze for a while before she came to her senses.
Subconsciously, he used the jade slip to memorize the other person's appearance. He looked at it for a long time but still couldn't figure out who it was.
Sensing that this was important, Shushu didn't delay and immediately knocked on Lu Li's door next door and sent a letter to Hou Yuanxun.
Hou Yuanxun and Shu Chi arrived very quickly; almost as soon as Shu Shu left, the two of them arrived as well.
Upon welcoming the people over, Shushu immediately played the video.
Upon seeing the image, both Shu Chi and Lu Li looked confused, while only Hou Yuanxun showed a surprised expression.
Upon seeing this, Shushu realized that Hou Yuanxun seemed to know the other person, and immediately asked, "Third Senior Brother, do you know this person?"
Hou Yuanxun didn't hide anything. Looking at the image, a fleeting look of nostalgia crossed his eyes: "He is Hua Shi."
Shushu looked puzzled: "Who is Huashi?" Shuchi and Luli beside her also looked puzzled.
Facing three pairs of eyes filled with curiosity, Hou Yuanxun lifted his robe, found a seat, and began to speak in detail: "Hua Shi, he was the former young master of the Nine Star Palace..."
It is quite clear that Hou Yuanxun held a degree of admiration for this man named Hua Shi.
This story lasted for almost half an hour, recounting nearly the entirety of the person's life.
The text also emphasizes Huaiyu's love for the other person, which is said to be common knowledge not only in the Nine Star Palace but throughout the entire Immortal Realm.
There are also rumors that Huaiyu may have taken revenge because the old palace master killed the young palace master Huashi, and thus plotted to have the old palace master take over.
The guess was reasonable, but Shushu always felt that something was wrong. She always felt that everything was Huaiyu's design to hide herself.
If she were to be even bolder, it's possible that even this young master Hua was set up by her.
Thinking this, Shushu asked, "Third Senior Brother, did any of you see the body of Young Master Hua back then?"
Hou Yuanxun was a perceptive man, and when Shushu asked this question, he understood the unspoken meaning: "You mean, the clue is with him?"
He paused for a moment before answering Shushu's question: "None of us have seen Hua Shi's body."
After saying that, worried that his words might be ambiguous and mislead people about the sweet potato, he explained.
"After the incident at Nine Star Palace, we investigated together and found that the death of Young Master Hua Shi was indeed caused by the old palace master. The Immortal Token was indeed passed to Huai Yu after his death. As for why the old palace master would pass the Immortal Token to Huai Yu, we have no idea."
Upon hearing this, Shushu felt somewhat helpless, but still believed that Huashi's death was inextricably linked to Huaiyu.
But what exactly would make a woman kill the man she loves?
Power? But looking at Huaiyu's behavior over the years, he doesn't seem like someone who craves power. So what else could it be? Shushu was so anxious he was practically scratching his head.
Suddenly, she met Lu Li's eyes. The dream she had when she obtained the Three Lives Grass floated through her mind, and she grasped something from it.
She wasn't the kind of person who would go crazy. If Lu Li didn't like her, she might leave quietly instead of clinging to him for life.
But what if it were a madman? What might he do? Perhaps he would kill the person he loves but cannot have, or like those crazy people, fake someone's death and imprison them.
The more Shushu thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, Hou Yuanxun had mentioned that Hua Shi didn't love Huaiyu and that he had a fiancée.
"Yes, Hua Shi's fiancée," Shushu's eyes lit up as she looked at Hou Yuanxun again, "Third Senior Brother, you just said that Young Master Hua has a fiancée. Where is she?"
Hou Yuanxun hadn't yet understood why Shushu suddenly asked about other people, but after thinking about it carefully, he still gave an answer.
"You mean He Xin? I heard that this Miss He disappeared after she went to a secret realm not long after her death in China."
Having received this answer, Shushu was 70% certain that it was exactly as she had guessed.
So she looked at the three people in front of her one by one and then told them all her guesses.
After she finished speaking, Hou Yuanxun and Shu Chi both gaped, speechless for a long time.
On the contrary, Lu Li, miraculously, thought the same way as Shushu and nodded in agreement: "I also think this guess is quite possible."
Seeing the serious expressions on their faces, Hou Yuanxun and Shu Chi also began to think seriously.
Perhaps influenced by the two, Hou Yuanxun thought about it more and more and felt that this guess was reliable.
Especially considering that they never saw Hua Shi's body afterward, relying only on the destroyed life tablet, the more they thought about it, the more suspicious they became.
And right beside them is a glaring example – the millet-like creature, who had a similar experience when he was in the lower realm.
Thinking of this, Hou Yuanxun hesitated for almost no time. He picked up the communication jade tablet beside him and quickly issued several orders, all of which were to have people investigate Hua Shi.
Seeing this, Lu Li thought for a moment and also sent a letter to his ancestors.
Then, the group discussed the other videos that Shushu had seen before, and after taking notes of the main points, they dispersed.
At the same time, Phoenix Feather Palace and Sky-Shaking Palace also received the messages sent back from here. Holding the communication jade tablets in their hands, their respective owners fell into deep thought.
After pondering for a while, they each consulted with their trusted confidants, and then one order after another was issued.
Soon, the instructions reached different people, who quickly took action and began to investigate the relevant information according to the instructions.
The more they investigated, the more they realized that things seemed to have deviated from what they had previously thought; they appeared to have been blinded by a single leaf.
Thinking of the destroyed Immortal Branch of No Trace, the group quickly realized that the Immortal Branch of No Trace had probably played a significant role in the destruction.
After all, they are divine objects that can conceal the truth from Heaven, so it doesn't seem difficult to blind these Immortal Emperors.
Thinking of this, the group felt both annoyed and relieved. They then began to investigate more carefully to prevent Huaiyu from possessing any similar divine objects.
They were surprised to discover so much during their investigation.
After carefully destroying all these things, they found even more information.
Even the whereabouts of the Immortal Token, which had been impossible to find before, now have clear clues.
Given time, it's only a matter of time before it's discovered.
This result made everyone very happy, but also made them more vigilant.
After much deliberation, I finally decided to do something to Huaiyu to make her fall into a deeper sleep, so that she wouldn't discover anything.
The elders were busy working, and Shushu and the others finally arrived at the Azure Sky Domain.
