readx;? These two fingertips were covered by a large amount of sand and stones, almost revealing a little flesh color, and if it weren't for Ian's habitual and careful search with his consciousness, I am afraid that they would not have been able to be detected by the naked eye alone.

Ian, who had made his discovery, turned back and came to the pile of rocks that blocked the passage, crouched down and dug up. He knew he had to be fast, the rumbling sound and the dust that fell reminded him all the time that this place was about to collapse, and if he slowed down a little, he was afraid that he would lose the clue that he had so hard to find.

As the minutes passed, as the earth and rocks were gradually excavated, a woman's arm appeared in front of Ian's eyes. He was slightly stunned, and hurriedly sped up the speed of digging a little, and his heart intensified irrepressibly.

This arm was faintly familiar to him, he knew the owner of this arm, and he was here for her.

But he couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe that such an existence would die here quietly.

Yes, there was no breath of life on this arm, suggesting that its owner might have died before the tide erupted.

But how is this possible!, Ian only felt a chill in his heart. He had stopped digging because half of the deceased's upper body was already exposed to the air. However, when he saw this familiar figure again, even though he had a premonition in his heart, he still couldn't believe his eyes.

"Ms. Amanda"

He froze in place, muttering only that he felt that the heavens had played a big joke on him. He had thought of countless possibilities, but he had never considered such an outcome. The lady's words and actions still echoed before his eyes, but when he saw her again, she was already a corpse.

He entrusted the other party to guard it, and she died here because of it.

Huge guilt and anger welled up from the bottom of my heart like a flame. However, in just a moment, he suppressed these feelings and forced his state of mind to be calm. He knew that guilt and anger meant nothing, and that only by calming down could he have a chance to avenge the dead lady.

After calming down, he began to fall into deep thought.

Ms. Amanda's strength is unquestionable. Although she is a woman, as the warden of the Northern Regions, her strength is definitely one of the best among the superiors in the Northern Regions. The strongest might be able to kill her easily, but there are only four supreme beings in the world, and only one of them is here, and that is Fei'er.

Of course, Fei'er can't be a murderer, so the question now is, apart from those who are the strongest, who can kill a high-ranking person so easily without letting people notice the slightest trace?

Wait, maybe it doesn't have to be absolute strength!

As soon as the thought came to him, Ian immediately struck a thrill. He began digging again, trying to dig out Lady Amanda to see if there was any trace left on the other side. He realized that if it wasn't for absolute strength, then it could only be a sneak attack. And to sneak up on a top high-level powerhouse, then this is only possible

Traitor.

Ian's mind flashed through what Esther had said. Only the trusted traitor could inflict fatal damage on the defenseless superiors.

The passage shook violently at this moment, and countless cracks suddenly extended, and in these cracks, small and complicated rubble spilled down and covered Ian. Unmoved, however, he sped up his excavation.

Just moments ago, a strange force suddenly enveloped the entire sky. Ian knew it was Phil who had once again ascended to the clouds. And this sudden shock is obviously the aftermath of the battle between gods and demons. He knew it was going to collapse, and in the short time before that, he had to find clues in Lady Amanda. As long as he can find even the slightest clue, then he may be able to find the mastermind hidden in the shadows through these, and make him pay for everything he has done!

The cracks in the walls of the passage are more and more numerous and larger. As countless rubbles fell, Ian couldn't help but become more and more anxious. He didn't have time to dig any further, so he gave up on the option after a moment's hesitation, grabbed Ms. Amanda's exposed arm, and tried to pull her out of the dirt.

However, as soon as he moved the position of Ms. Amanda's arm, he suddenly found that under the palm that covered the ground, a pattern painted with blood was lying quietly.

"This is," Ian's eyes widened, and he was shocked by the unexpected discovery, and he fell to his knees, completely forgetting that he was in danger at the moment.

It's a very simple pattern, crooked like a child's graffiti, and anyone can easily draw it. Because it itself is just two threads of silk that are entwined together. However, at this time, these two silk threads were dyed with the color of blood, which made this "graffiti" more heavy and cruel.

This is left to him.

Ian knew that this was the clue that Lady Amanda had left him before she died. She knew she was going to come here, so she painted this pattern with blood, using it to tell herself who the real murderer was.

Anyone else would have lost sight of the pattern, but Ian could read it. And Ms. Amanda was also sure that Ian could understand, so she left such a pattern for him.

Yes, Ian understood. He understood everything the moment he saw the pattern.

He already knows who killed Lady Amanda?

He already knew who the traitors were hiding in the North?

Of course, he already knows the mastermind behind all this, who is the "master" of the Black Balance Society?

Because the pattern was so familiar to him, he had seen it countless times, and he had doubted the person it represented.

It's just that he really can't believe that the other party would do such a thing. Because in his opinion, the other party has no reason to do this at all.

However, he also knew that Ms. Amanda could not joke with her life. Since he can't figure it out now, instead of wasting time here dreaming, it's better to ask me directly.

Ian stood up calmly and bowed down to Lady Amanda's body with the highest courtesy. Then he turned and left the passage in a cloud of falling rocks, walking slowly towards the center of the Northern Regions, where the Fallen Star Tower was.

He knew someone was waiting for him there.

Because that motif is a coat of arms, the coat of arms of the nobility.

The two intertwined threads should not be red, but black and white. No, it wasn't a thread at all, it was two snakes, it was a black and white snake entwined together. (To be continued.) )
