Chapter 184: Reversal Again

After a night, two corpses were found in the Wuhou Mansion again, and this time, Wu Xiulin could no longer suppress the matter, the news disappeared, and everyone in the mansion knew it in a blink of an eye.

People were panicked, rumors spread everywhere, and when the news that Wu Zhenfang personally concluded that the murderer was a demon cultivator also leaked, this depressing atmosphere enveloped the entire Wuhou Mansion and was pushed to the extreme.

"Brother Jiang, there have been murders one after another in the Wuhou Mansion, and the murderer has no clue, this matter may be far more serious than we think!"

In the Wuhou Mansion, Wu Xiulin and Jiang Feng walked side by side, walking quickly towards the lobby of the Hou Mansion, both of them with serious expressions and frowning.

"It's inevitable that people will be panicked, what does Senior Wu say?" Jiang Feng asked tentatively.

"Father speculates that these three murders may have been committed by a demon cultivator for the sake of practice, no matter what, the top priority is to arrest the demon cultivator murderer!"

"Practice ......"

Jiang Feng's pupils shrank suddenly, his face turned pale, and Wu Xiulin tidied up his clothes and said that he had entered the lobby.

"My subordinates have seen the young master!"

In the lobby at this time, six middle-aged men in battle armor saw Wu Xiulin entering, and immediately got up to salute, Jiang Feng noticed that Dugu Shengyi was also on the side, and he didn't see the summer night and dreams.

"Six commanders, now that everyone knows about the incident, I won't talk nonsense anymore!"

Wu Xiulin also saluted the six commanders in the hall, then took out the talisman, showed everyone, and said solemnly: "Master Hou has been in retreat and cultivation recently, so he can't interfere too much in this matter, and he has been entrusted to me to take full responsibility." Recently, there is a demon cultivator who can sneak into the mansion under the heavy protection of the Wuhou Mansion and kill people, stirring up the panic and peace of the people of the Wuhou Mansion, this is a blatant provocation to my Wuhou Mansion, no matter who he is or which force he belongs to, I have only one order - find him out and kill him on the spot!"

The six commanders knelt down and clenched their fists at the same time when they saw the soldiers, and said respectfully: "Obey the young master's military orders!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, all the troops of the Wuhou Mansion are in your hands, and the work of the Hou Mansion guards is also your duty, and now that this kind of thing has happened, I don't want to say much about what it means, only one word of caution - don't let me down again!"

Wu Xiulin's majestic voice penetrated into the ears of the six commanders like thunder, and they trembled at the same time, and hurriedly bowed their heads and said yes.

Jiang Feng was silent, secretly smacking his tongue, he couldn't imagine that the polite Wu Xiulin on weekdays was so majestic. Wu Xiulin nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Dugu Shengyi on the side, and his tone was a little polite.

"Brother Dugu, it is important to capture the demon cultivator, but Wu still needs to sit in the Wuhou Mansion to lead the overall situation, and I want to ask Dugu Daoyou to help on my behalf, and personally lead a small team to Xishan Gulin and his party to search for the murderer of the demon cultivator, I don't know if it is possible?"

The scope of Wuhou County is too large, it can not be summarized only as a city, it can be directly defined as a territory, there is a deep mountain and ancient forest in the west of it, it is a wild land that has not been developed for many years, and there are even demon beasts living there, and occasionally monks will choose to live in seclusion here, so it is inaccessible, rarely populated, if it is hidden, this place is indeed suitable.

"It's easy!"

As soon as Dugusheng heard this, he immediately hugged his fists in agreement, nodded to Jiang Feng, and turned around and left with the six commanders. Wu Xiulin turned to the inner hall to collect and sort out clues, Jiang Feng wanted to follow, but suddenly remembered something, turned around and rushed out of the lobby, and ran towards the guest room.

"Little girl, stay!"

Jiang Feng stopped a maid who was passing by, and for the past few days, it was this maid who was taking care of their daily life.

"Do you know where my senior sister has gone in the summer night?"

The maid shook her head blankly and said respectfully: "The son forgives the sins, the slave doesn't know, I won't see Miss Xia from this morning!"

Jiang Feng was puzzled, and was about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly looked around, as if looking for something, and finally asked again, "Where is your young lady?" Why haven't you seen her?"

"Miss went to the Xishan Ancient Forest with Miss Yumeng half an hour ago......"

"Not good!"

Before the maid's words were finished, Jiang Feng's face suddenly changed, and the feather marks were spread, and the person had turned into an afterimage and rushed towards the outside of the Wuhou Mansion, leaving the dazed maid still in place and didn't know what to do.

"Da!"

Suddenly, there was the sound of crutches on the ground, and the maid's eyes suddenly became blank, her expression was dull, and her body shook slightly, and she only recovered after a few breaths.

"What's wrong with me? Why am I here? What just happened?"

The maid stroked her forehead and shook it gently, and finally left blankly. And where she was standing before, an old man with a cane suddenly appeared out of thin air, just like this ordinary and ordinary standing there, but none of the people who came and went noticed his existence, as if there was no one there at all, there was only a cloud of air from beginning to end, as if he never existed.

The old man looked in the direction of Jiang Feng's departure, showed an unfathomable smile, and whispered, "Jiang Feng, what kind of wonderful drama will you put on for the old man because of your distrust of the dream in your heart?"

In the low laughter, the old man's figure disappeared again, coming and going without a trace!

......

The soldiers of Wuhou Mansion were led by six commanders, and they were divided into six teams, one to search the interior of Wuhou Mansion, one to search the surroundings of Wuhou Mansion, one to go to Xishan Ancient Forest with Dugu Shengyi, and the remaining three to search the entire Wuhou County in a scattered manner.

Jiang Feng's face was like cold frost, and his cultivation was running at full strength, and he also rushed towards the ancient forest of the West Mountain, and the anxiety in his heart became more and more intense.

"The murder in the Wuhou Mansion was caused by the demon cultivator for practice, and according to Ye Di, the two-day retreat of Youmeng was practice, plus she went out late at night twice in a row, and even went to Bi Cong and Dai Zhen's manor, all these abnormal movements, is it really ......?"

Jiang Feng went deep into the ancient forest of the West Mountain, burying his head in a hurry, and a sword suddenly shot out from the side, making him have to stop in a hurry and look at it vigilantly.

"Who?"

Jiang Feng slapped out with a palm, shattering a towering tree and forcing out the people who were hiding behind to make a sneak attack. I saw a figure flying out, looking at Jiang Feng with cold eyes, and the seven flying swords around him were suspended, and the blades of the swords were pointed directly at him.

"Xuanhuo Gate?!"

This young man was dressed in clothes that were clearly the regular clothes of the disciples of the Xuanhuo Sect, but at this moment, he appeared in the Xishan Ancient Forest, and the timing was too delicate.

"You are from the Wuhou Mansion, right! What are you planning when you lead the crowd into the Xishan Ancient Forest?"

The Xuanhuo Sect disciple blocked all of Jiang Feng's retreats and forced him to leave at this time. Jiang Feng looked at him and was silent for a few breaths before asking, "Did you do the things in the Wuhou Mansion by your Xuanhuo Sect?"

There was doubt and expectation in his eyes, but the young disciple of the Xuanhuo Sect didn't seem to hear what he was asking at all, and was still immersed in his own world.

"I didn't expect that I would find this kind of strange thing when I went out, if there is really something greasy in it, I will be rewarded when I return to the sect!"

Jiang Feng looked at him, his eyes gradually became impatient, and at this moment, a woman's exclamation suddenly came from the dense forest in the distance, and the sound finally stopped abruptly through the piercing fear, as if it had been cut off by life.

Jiang Feng's face changed greatly, and he immediately ran in the direction where the scream came from, but the disciple of the Xuanhuo Sect was in front of him, pointing at his sword, and the flying sword stabbed out in the air, wanting to cut off Jiang Feng's limbs and bones and capture him.

"I don't have time to talk to you, get out of here!"

Jiang Feng was furious, this person was only five zhang immortal gate, and he dared to stop him, and immediately summoned a thousand feather shuttles, and the feather blades turned into hundreds of silver rays, like a dense rain of swords, and like a frenzied storm, instantly slashing all the enemy's seven flying swords, and completely strangled the young man's eyes that were about to split.

"Stop dreaming!"

Jiang Feng didn't stop, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared at the edge of a narrow clearing in the dense forest, but his roar stopped abruptly, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

In the clearing, Wu Xiuchuan leaned against a piece of bluestone and collapsed to the ground, his limbs hanging weakly on the ground, his right hand seemed to want to grasp something last. There was a stinging streak of blood on her neck, blood gushing from the wound, staining her clothes red, but she was dead. Yu Meng's eyes were cold, his back was to Wu Xiuchuan's corpse, and the black short sword in his hand was dripping a few points of red.

Jiang Feng looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, thinking of Wu Xiuchuan's voice before his death, this little girl who was younger than him, although she was a little arrogant and willful in the past, but her existence reminded Jiang Feng of Ye Bingqiao who was far away in the Cloud Palace.

But such a fresh and lovely life has now ended in front of Jiang Feng's eyes, and the person who ended her is his fellow friend, how can he explain to Wu Xiulin and another friend.

"Zheng!"

The long sword was unsheathed, Jiang Feng glared at the dream, his eyes gradually saw blood, his chest rose and fell, the tip of the sword pointed directly, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Why?"

Yu Meng clenched the short sword in his hand, looked directly into Jiang Feng's eyes, his cold and indifferent eyes were the same as before, and after a long time, he whispered: "There is no reason ......"

Silent, silently looking at each other, Youmeng looked at Jiang Feng, as if waiting for something, Jiang Feng stared at Youmeng's eyes, as if he wanted to see something.

Time passed bit by bit, the atmosphere was depressing and terrifying, Jiang Feng's mind was spinning, he didn't know what he was thinking, and finally, a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Feng put his sword back into its sheath, and the blood in his eyes gradually faded.

He didn't notice that the moment he put away his sword, a happy smile quietly bloomed under the black veil of the dream, and the eyes looking at him were much softer than before.

"What are you not going to explain to me?"

"Where's Dugu Shengyi?"

Jiang Feng looked at Youmeng again, Youmeng didn't answer, and asked Dugusheng where he went. Jiang Feng pondered for a moment, and finally told her what he knew.

"Sheng Yi was entrusted by Wu Xiulin to lead the team to search for the murderer in this ancient forest of the West Mountain, and he should have been in the depths of the mountain forest at this time!"

"Oops!"

Jiang Feng told the truth, who knew that Yu Meng suddenly exclaimed when he heard it, and his body technique was running to the limit, and he instantly passed by Jiang Feng and rushed towards Dugu Shengyi.

"Huh?"

Jiang Feng glanced back at the departing dream, his eyes rolled, constantly rethinking everything, and suddenly stepped forward to investigate Wu Xiuchuan's body, but found that Wu Xiuchuan's frightened face hid a deep unwillingness, there was a quenched dagger hidden behind her waist, and in the sleeve of her right arm, there was a set of sleeve arrows, and the tip of the arrow also implied poison.

"Oops!"

Jiang Feng's mind instantly exploded like a thunderbolt, and he realized that there was fraud in this matter, put away Wu Xiuchuan's corpse, ran with all his strength, and left a remnant of the Dao behind him, and ran towards Dugu Shengyi.

He once experimented with whether he could use the Yuan Shen Power to control the Thousand Feather Shuttle and ask him to move forward to achieve the purpose of flying an alternative Imperial Object, and found that although this method was feasible, the speed was far less fast than his method of transporting a thousand feathers.

Jiang Fengyuan's divine power dispersed, and he immediately noticed that there was a fierce battle in the depths of the mountain forest in front of him, but when he was close to it, he saw the hidden figure of the dream lurking aside, Jiang Feng suddenly realized, and immediately hid in the towering tree on the side with the help of the Tongling Treasure Jade to hide his breath.

He lowered his eyes and looked down, and saw that Dugu Shengyi and Xia Yeyan were deeply trapped in the fierce battle in the field, and the besiegers turned out to be Bi Cong and Dai Zhen and other Suwanggu and his party!
