Chapter 992: Clues
Seeing Xiao Chen leave, Ouyang Tongfu's face looked a little better, until now, he felt that he had fallen for Xiao Chen, otherwise how could the family have fallen into such a field,
Knowing his father Mo Ruozi, Ouyang Weiyi persuaded: "Father, in fact, Brother Xiao has always been kind, if you didn't insist on going your own way and had to go against Worthering Heights, we wouldn't be in a desperate situation today, fortunately, when a foreign enemy appears, no matter what the considerations, everyone should abandon their previous suspicions and fight the enemy together,"
Ximen Yucheng also said: "Yes, the head of the family, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the livelihood of the family in the future, what is face, saving your life is the most important thing,"
Ouyang Tongfu finally nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Tianxiao Heights Villa, don't worry, I will lower my posture and try to say good things to the surnamed Chen, so that he can accept us,"
......
In the underworld, the sky is still gray, and there is a pungent smell in the air,
Piao Piao has a veil on his face, one is to filter the air, but in fact, it is to cover the extinct face, so as not to be recognized.
"Chen, what's your plan, we won't be looking for it aimlessly," she asked.
"To be honest, I really don't have any plans," he shook his head and said, "When I first saw Qin Lang claiming to be the God King, I almost subconsciously thought that I should come here to find out the truth, as for how to investigate, I still haven't figured it out,"
"Okay, anyway, we have time, let's find it slowly," the goddess said helplessly,
He looked around, and everywhere he looked, there was not even a single figure.
This is not surprising, because of the harsh living environment in the Netherworld, the total number of people is not much, after Qin Lang issued the order to levy the Imperial Extreme Realm, he asked everyone who had the Imperial Extreme grade to join the army, and even some people who did not meet the requirements were forcibly taken away and took on tasks such as transporting baggage, washing and cooking, etc.,
Along the way, the two did not encounter any checkpoints for interrogating passers-by.
I don't have to worry about my identity being exposed, but it also causes a very serious problem, I don't know who to ask about the situation here.
Finally, an hour later, they met an old woman digging wild vegetables and inquired about the approximate location of the God-King's Palace.
The Palace of the God King, which used to be the most prosperous place, is now the same as other places, it is so deserted, except for a few guards who are responsible for guarding the gate, only the black and gray tall walls remain,
The two of them looked outside, but found no useful information.
Piao Piao lowered her voice: "Shall we go in and take a look, maybe there are clues inside,"
He frowned: "But we don't know the situation inside, and it is likely to be dangerous to rush in, so let's wait...... Hey, that guy looks familiar,"
A young woman walked across from her, although she was wearing a rough linen dress, she couldn't hide her inner elegance.
"Who is she," Piao Piao asked,
"Cai Qing's maid captain, named Rou'er," Xiao Chen replied, then strode over, greeted the other party and said, "Sister Rou'er, it's really you,"
The other party was stunned at first, because Xiao Chen was wearing a hat, and when he saw his appearance clearly, he suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Xiao Chen, why are you here,"
Xiao Chen didn't answer her question, but asked rhetorically: "Why are you here, and you are still wearing such clothes, Sister Rou'er is the chief maid of the God King, and she should stay in the palace,"
Rou'er smiled bitterly, glanced at the palace wall next to her, and said, "I don't know what happened, Lord God King suddenly disappeared, Qin Lang became the new God King, and couldn't help but dismiss us and drive us out of the palace,"
"There is such a thing," Xiao Chen was even more incomprehensible, and said: "What happened to Cai Qing, why did he let Qin Lang replace him, and let the entire Netherworld pour out of the nest to attack the Emperor Extreme Realm,"
Rou'er shook her head: "I really don't know what happened, I just remember that one day, Qin Lang came to visit the God King in a panic, saying that there was something important, under normal circumstances, when the God King received the Demon Shuai, we slaves and maids must stay away, everyone left as usual, but it didn't take long for Qin Lang to announce that he was the new God King, and the God King disappeared,"
Piao Piao also walked over and asked, "At that time, there was no sign of a fight in the Divine King's Palace, and before you left, did you go to investigate?"
"It seems that there is, but I can't be sure," Rou'er replied, "As soon as Qin Lang came to power, he had already suppressed those who opposed him with iron and blood, and at the same time drove us out of the palace, and he didn't even allow us to bring our personal belongings, let alone check the scene,"
Xiao Chen frowned, and said to the palace wall: "Are there many people in there now?"
"Not much, most of them went with Qin Lang to conquer the Emperor Extreme Realm," she replied,
"That's good, Sister Rou'er, tell me about the situation in the palace, and we'll go in and check the clues," Xiao Chen demanded,
"It's very big in the palace, it's not clear just to say it, I'll draw you a picture,"
Two quarters of an hour later, Xiao Chen and Piao Piao quietly sneaked into it with a detailed topographical map of the palace.
They soon came to the inner palace and found Cai Qing's living room, and at a glance they saw the pillars covered by the veil, with traces left by the release of intense soul power.
Xiao Chen also found clues on the wall, and it was almost certain that there had been a fight here.
"It's very strange, since Qin Lang has already occupied the Divine King's Palace, why don't you erase these traces and simply cover them up," she said suspiciously,
"It's because he's in a hurry to enter the Emperor's Extreme Realm, and he doesn't have time to do anything else," Xiao Chen analyzed: "Besides, this is already his territory, and whoever rushes in without his order doesn't have to worry about being discovered at all,"
Piao Piao nodded, and said, "But Caiqing, although there are traces of a fight here, it doesn't look like a murder scene, and no one should die here,"
He pointed to the window frame behind him and said, "The person left from that side, or was beaten out, go over and take a look, you should be able to find clues,"
The two searched carefully, and finally came to the edge of the poisonous dragon cliff after half an hour.
Looking at the black cliffs below, Piao Piao concluded: "There is no bottom to probe the situation below,"
"I'll try," he sent out the Ye Zi Martial Spirit, which also ended in failure,
It is not difficult to judge the traces left by the Ya Ya, if someone falls down, it is likely to be Caiqing,
"I think we should go down and have a look," he said.
"Is it necessary like that," Piao Piao raised her eyebrows and said: "With such a deep cliff, those who fall down have no chance of survival, and besides, Cai Qing is very likely to be thrown down after being killed by Qin Lang, in the battle a few days ago, you also saw that that guy used the evil skill to absorb stars, but whoever is recruited will become a dry corpse because his soul power is absorbed,"
He insisted: "I think it's better to go down and take a look, even if it is Cai Qing's corpse, then at least we can be sure that she is dead, and we can concentrate on dealing with Qin Lang, but my intuition tells me that she is probably not dead,"
"Okay, since you want to go down, I'll accompany you," Piao Piao said without thinking: "There must be unknown dangers below, two people take care of each other, it's better than one,"
