In the Su family manor.

In an underground secret room located in the depths of the manor, Su Yuanding, who had a solemn face, and several henchmen stood in the corner, silently watching the situation in the room.

On the platform in the center of the secret room, a large crystal coffin was placed, and Su Yuqian's body was lying inside.

Thirty centimeters above his head, a strange indigo-blue sphere about half a meter in diameter was suspended, covered with countless earthworm-like patterns, and the surface was filled with a pale black light mist. Directly on the side below, there is a pattern of seven concentric rings of different colors inside and out, which looks like a strange eyeball!

Several shriveled, thin and short old men gathered around the crystal coffin, chanting mysterious and complex prayers in their mouths, their voices were sharp and piercing, and they were slow and slow, containing a thick sense of death, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable!

With the sound of their chanting, the strange eyeball followed a certain rhythm and kept contracting! A pillar of gray light emanated from the center of the "eyeball", covering Su Yuqian's head, and deep and obscure energy fluctuations were drumming endlessly.

A moment later, a gray screen of light condensed in the air, and scenes began to appear on it, but the shadows were not very clear.

The voices of several old men suddenly became urgent, and the light screen flickered for a while, and the picture finally became solid and realistic!

Su Yuanding, along with the henchmen around him, immediately came over and carefully observed those pictures.

Although the quality of the picture is still not very good, the characters and environmental features can already be recognized. That was exactly the scene that the young master of the Su family saw before he died! Including his bravailing in the fortress, molesting female soldiers, dining, practicing, meeting his boss, going out to play, sleeping, etc., are all vivid!

Looks. This is a pampered young master's normal experience! Of course, Su Yuanding didn't care about these. He wants to see who his precious son had a confrontation with before he died. And the real cause of his death!

The so-called suicide, it is impossible to hide a character like Su Yuanding!

The picture on the light screen changes very quickly, similar to the kind of film that is set to fast-forward, of course, everyone present is a little cultivated, and it is not difficult to see the process clearly.

About two hours later, the picture finally arrived at the moment before the young master of the Su family died, including him suddenly waking up from his deep sleep and then taking the lightsaber. Pierce yourself in the brain until you lose all consciousness and the picture returns to darkness!

At this time, several old men were exhausted, and it can be seen that maintaining this strange thing for a long time is indeed extraordinary in its consumption!

"Your Excellency, we have done our best!" An old man has the strength to speak.

Their faces are oval, their pupils are eerily golden, and they are the kind of snake-like shuttles! There are several tentacles of different lengths on the lower jaw, and it also looks like an unknown intelligent creature!

Su Yuanding nodded lightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work!" Agree on a good remuneration. I'll pay it all! ”

The old man nodded in satisfaction, and put away the strange utensil. After the salute, I went down to rest!

After they retreated, the head of the Su family's face turned cold and asked his henchmen, "Have you found any clues?" ”

Several people glanced at each other, and one of them said:

"Patriarch, judging from the image above, the young master did not have an obvious conflict with anyone in the three days before his death! Especially Xichen Qinglan and Xiao Junling, who you suspected in advance, although they had contact with the young master, they did not have any unpleasant trouble! So ......"

That instrument could reproduce all the pictures that Su Yuqian had seen three days before his death, but it was obvious that there was no information that interested Su Yuanding.

"Su Tonghe, you are the best wise man in the family, can't you see anything suspicious?" The face of the head of the Su family darkened, and he said with some displeasure.

Su Tonghe shook his head and said, "It's a pity, patriarch! If you are based on this information alone, it is not feasible for you to publicly accuse the Temple of the Silent Star of murder through legal means! Even if that big man is willing to help secretly, it won't solve the problem! After all, Xichen Qinglan and her students are not idle characters, and without ironclad evidence, it is impossible to get them! ”

"Of course, it is not undoubtful that the young master had a verbal and physical conflict with the Holy Maiden of the Northern Hell on the afternoon before the young master met with him!"

Su Yuanding looked stunned, and immediately said: "Let's take a look at that picture again!" ”

The scene just now has been recorded by the light brain, so it is not difficult to replay it, and Su Tonghe used the blurred deduction function of the light brain to perfectly reproduce the entire scene, including the dialogue between them!

When he saw that the Holy Maiden Yanli slapped Su Yuqian, Su Yuanding frowned and asked with some uncertainty:

"Could it be that this person can't do it? But Qian'er just said a few innocuous words, so he wouldn't just kill someone, right? There doesn't seem to be any big enmity between them! ”

Su Tonghe groaned: "Isn't that holy woman still in the emperor and hasn't left?" Or, we should ask her directly! Maybe you can find something! ”

The head of the Su family was a little moved, thought about it, but shook his head to deny his opinion: "No!" She is from the Northern Hell Empire, and we can't use any drastic means! Otherwise, it will give rise to diplomatic disputes......"

Of course, for Su Yuanding, who is used to being arrogant and domineering, if he is replaced by someone else, he will do it! Regardless of whether the other party is a human or an alien race, but the Holy Maiden of the Northern Hell Temple is obviously not such a soft persimmon! Just in terms of her own strength, there is no one in the Shuoyue Consortium who can match her! So it is obviously not feasible to use force!

Could it be that you have to settle this loss? The son is gone, the two core clansmen have fallen, and Su Yunhe is also dead! In the end, he was even caught by the high-level of the empire and the Silent Star Temple, and he had to make a ruthless blood to cover up the matter!

Since his debut, Su Yuanding has been calling for wind and rain, and he is invincible! When did you suffer such a big grievance?

"Patriarch, there may be something to be done!" Su Tonghe pondered,

"Why don't you let me bring some gifts and try to visit that one for once! Let's see if you can ask for some valuable information! ”

Su Muchen looked at his father's face, lowered his voice and said, "Actually, your plan may still have a chance to continue to be implemented!" If she's willing to help! ”

"You mean......" Su Yuanding's spirits perked up, and he immediately understood what he meant.

The people of the Northern Hell suffered a great loss in this battle, and the Temple of the Silent Star can be said to have made great contributions, standing in the position of the Holy Maiden, if she can manage to make this nemesis suffer some losses, she should be happy to do it, right?

Once he figured out the trick, Su Yuanding immediately made up his mind and said decisively: "That's good!" You go right away! As long as she is willing to stand up and testify against Xiao Junling, she can only mention what conditions she needs! ”

…………

In the next few days, Xiao Junling went to meet with Marshal Xue Cangyun and the Grand Consul Wei Zhenhua, and reached an agreement on his future stay and departure.

Subsequently, his application for retirement was approved by the Ministry of Defense, and considering his previous contributions, the marshal still gave him the status of a lieutenant general, and he was not stingy in terms of material and honorary rewards, which were issued according to the marshal's standards, which was regarded as compensation.

This also means that if he has the opportunity to return to the army in the future, he can get the status of no less than a lieutenant general from the beginning! In the future, as long as you have made enough achievements, your promotion will not be affected in any way!

The various preparations for the expedition were carried out in an orderly manner, and according to the laws of the empire, citizens who were not old were allowed to participate in the affairs of the wilderness, but fortunately, he would be sixteen years old after the year, and with Xichen Qinglan coming forward to vouch for it, this problem was easily solved!

The only thing that made him a little depressed was that the batch of star zirconia jade that Saint Maiden Yanli put out at the auction basically fell into Qin Yayu's hands, plus she still had an amazing amount of inventory in her hands, so there was no need to talk about the next thing!

In the time before the Chinese New Year, Xiao Junling basically had to be called by this teacher every day to refine the batch of star zirconium jade with her spiritual power, as well as some strange materials!

The price of the Mirror Warrior is so expensive, in addition to the cost of raw materials, the scarcity of the number of high-level psychic abilities is another important reason! Xiao Junling's spiritual energy, which is not inferior to that of the powerhouses of the Supreme Star Realm, is really difficult to find a better replacement in today's imperial capital! Being caught by Qin Yayu as a coolie is a natural thing!

After the news spread that he was about to go to the wilderness, An Yulong, Zhao Ziyan, Wei Qinghao and others, as well as the families behind him, all made corresponding statements, and each family sent logistics materials worth 10 million to 20 million energy points, which can be regarded as support for his first trip to the wilderness!

However, for Xuanyuan Xiaofeng's cooperation agreement, Xiao Junling declined after careful consideration and discussion with the two teachers. After all, his current entrepreneurship is still in its infancy, and it is really difficult to say where he can go in the future! It's not a wise decision to be tied up in these cooperation agreements too soon!

Although this wealthy daughter admires herself more, when it comes to matters involving practical interests, the family behind her is very realistic! rashly agreed to the other party without being sure, but in the end, you couldn't see the expected benefits! This will not only offend the Xuanyuan family, but also make her situation awkward, and it will be difficult to be a person in the middle!

And then there are those family tycoons who are hostile to him, after learning the news, they don't say anything, but they are all relieved in private.

Pioneering the wilderness has always been a situation where the risks far outweigh the benefits, no matter how amazing and brilliant the characters are, because of all kinds of accidents buried in unknown star fields! This young man, whom they regard as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, had better be like those unlucky ghosts, and die in the wilderness and never come back, which is the result that is in their best interests!
