After doing all this, Ling Yu sneaked back to his house quietly, and it was the ugly time at that time.

On the second day, Ling Xiao was still on his way back to Xingyue City, and he was called by the Great Elder, and he heard that a fire burned down the Xuancao Hall last night, causing two deaths and one injury.

The one who died was the proprietress and the other was a supervisor of the clan, both of whom were stabbed to death with daggers.

One stabbed in the front of the heart, and the other stabbed straight into the vest from behind, both of which were killed with a single sword, apparently done by a veteran murderer.

No useful clues were left, except that the male genitals were cut off, and it was suspected that it was most likely a love killing.

According to the only surviving little girl, the proprietress gave the guys in the store a holiday that night, and let their family go to see their parents, leaving her alone to take care of the proprietress.

Shortly after she lay down, she seemed to hear the voice of someone talking from the hostess's room.

But the proprietress told her not to come out no matter what she heard, because the shop was near and haunted at night.

It wasn't until she heard that the fire had burned into her courtyard that she ran out of the house in fright.

It's a shame to know that the small corner door in the backyard is open, otherwise she won't have time to escape, and she will definitely be burned to death in the courtyard.

This Xuancao Hall is not big, it is not small, and the most subtle thing is that at such a moment, the Great Elder personally inquired about this matter.

He asked Ling Xiao to solve the case in the shortest possible time, and give the Council of Elders a handover, as well as a handover to the shopkeepers in the city.

Those who know the inside story know that the clan supervisor who died is the distant nephew of the Great Elder.

He relied on the big tree of the Great Elder, bullied some low-level disciples, and engaged in some forced buying and selling, which had already made him complain.

There are even rumors that he has a warm relationship with the proprietress of Xuancaotang...

But all this is gone because he is the distant nephew of the Great Elder.

The dog's urine moss is not good, who let it grow on the Jinluan Palace!

The Great Elder didn't see this distant nephew very much, but you have to see who the owner is when you beat the dog, right?

It's too faceless, it's arrogant!

If you dare to kill my nephew, you just didn't take me, the Great Elder, seriously!

How else is this possible?

If you don't find out what is going on, if you don't find out who is behind the scenes, where do you put the old face of the great elder?

After Ling Xiao received this task from the Great Elder, he didn't have a clue when he went back.

Thinking that he hadn't gone to see his son Ling Yu since he came back, he put aside the matter at hand and came to Ling Yu's side.

Ling Yu was continuing to practice in the secret room of the study at this time, because his divine thoughts were strong and his perception was particularly strong, even if he was deep in the secret room, he also sensed the arrival of his father.

Ling Yu hurriedly stopped practicing, walked out of the secret room, and came to see his father.

As soon as Ling Yu saw Ling Xiao, he couldn't help but have a sour nose.

The current Ling Xiao is much darker and thinner than the Ling Xiao in his memory.

It's just that at the age of less than forty, he can already see the gray hair that has been born, which can be seen that he is heartbroken for Ling Yu.

"Father! You've lost a lot of weight! Ling Yu exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.

"Why, I'm a lot tougher."

This is the responsibility of a father, no matter how bitter his heart is, he will not say half of his bitterness to his children.

On the contrary, he will take pleasure in his misery so as not to transmit negative feelings to his children.

"Father, don't carry all the burdens yourself, the child has grown up and can share it for you."

Ling Xiao smiled with relief, he was very content to hear his son say this.

"Silly boy, don't think so much, take care of your body with peace of mind. Father doesn't ask for anything else now, only that you can be content in peace, and I don't ask you to share anything for me, I don't need anything at all, because this is my father! "Fatherly affection is beyond words.

Ling Yu's tears almost burst out of his eyes, and he said excitedly, "Father, I can cultivate Xuan Qi again!"

"What do you say? Say it again," Ling Xiao was incredulous when he heard it.

"I've already started cultivating Xuan Qi, and I've just broken through the third level of Xuan Qi!"

This sudden amount of news is indeed a bit large, not to mention that Ling Xiao is not mentally prepared, even if there is, he can't believe it.

Not to mention Ling Yu in his current state, how could it be that the high-spirited genius boy at the beginning, after a few days of not seeing him, suddenly went from not being able to cultivate Xuan Qi to directly ascend to the third level of Xuan Qi?

Ling Xiao immediately swept his divine thoughts over, but found an even stranger phenomenon, Ling Yu's Xuan Qi was sometimes there and sometimes not. One moment level one, another moment level three, or level two, what the hell is going on?

"Father, do you believe it now? I have really cultivated the Xuan Qi, and I can control the display of the Xuan Qi level, I want to be as many levels as I want, and I can be as many as I want! “

Hearing this, Ling Xiao immediately fell into an incomparably shock...

"My current rank is only known to my father, and Xiang'er doesn't know anything about cultivation, so she doesn't know why. I don't want others to know my exact level yet, but I just reveal that I can cultivate Xuan Qi..."

"Yu'er, you don't need to say it, I know your intentions, do whatever you want, my father will never reveal any of your information to the outside world..."

"Thank you, Father!"

Ling Xiao felt that Ling Yu had a different feeling this time, Ling Yu would never talk to him so politely before, just like an adult.

Is it because my son has grown up after going through these tribulations?

Perhaps, there is no need to worry about this, the most important thing is that Ling Yu's talent has finally recovered.

The aura that once had been on him is coming back, and as a father, what could be more joyful?

"If there is anything that your father needs to do for you now, just say it, and your father will do his best to help you!"

"Thank you, father, not yet."

"Well, well, seeing you like you, it's very relieved for my father. There's one more thing to do for the Father, and I'm leaving. “

"What's the matter?"

"Ahem, ahem... Not to mention, the Great Elder's distant nephew was killed in the Xuancao Hall last night, and he was also set on fire..."

Xuancaotang?

Murder and arson?

No way! Isn't that what you just did?

It's just that it seems that this ass is going to be wiped by his father, and it's really unpleasant!

Root? I just wanted to get rid of a scumbag, but I didn't expect it to get to the Great Elder all of a sudden, what should I do now?

"Is there any progress?"

"It was preliminarily judged to be a love killing, because there was an act of cutting off the ****... Others can only be further judged after a careful investigation at the scene. “

"It's just a mystery..."

Ling Yu originally wanted to say that it was just a fourth-level supervision of Xuanqi, but he suddenly realized that his father was the organizer of the case, and the information revealed in this way was too dangerous, and he regretted telling his father that he was a third-level Xuanqi.

With the wisdom of his father, it is very likely that he will doubt himself, so he hurriedly changed his words: "It's just a Xuancao Hall, why bother my father?"
