readx;
Although the grand dinner party was held very late and ended in the light of day, the Spirit Demon King was obviously on the rise, so after everyone else said goodbye and left, he deliberately pulled Yu Xiu in this palace hall and chatted happily. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
For this kind old man who has no fight, Yu Xiu is not annoyed at all, on the contrary, he feels that chatting with him can be said to be of great benefit.
And just when the two of them, an old man and a young man, were talking happily, a palace maid came with two cups of fragrant tea, and walked lightly, the rich tea fragrance, which was more than ten meters apart, could clearly enter the nose and give people a refreshing feeling.
However, at this time, Yu Xiu was not immersed in this wonderful fragrance because of this, and looking at the handsome maid getting closer and closer, his heart couldn't help but move slightly.
Suddenly, Yu Xiu stood up and exclaimed coldly at the maid who was less than three meters away from him: "This girl, your wrist!"
As if frightened by Yu Xiu's exclamation, the nervous maid subconsciously flipped her wrist, ready to observe what was wrong, but she didn't expect that her violent movement made the fragrant tea that was held immediately lose its balance and fall directly out of her hand.
But at this moment, Yu Xiu just happened to reach over with lightning and steadily caught the fragrant tea that almost fell to the ground, and when the maid saw this, her pretty face suddenly changed and immediately knelt down and said to the Spirit Demon King and Yu Xiu.
"Okay, you can step down, I'll serve this tea!" Yu Xiu smiled playfully at the maid, then turned his back to her, walked slowly to the side of the Spirit Demon King, and put the two cups of tea that were still fragrant in front of him.
The maid seemed to be very uneasy, although she stood quietly not far away, but her nervous little eyes still glanced towards Yuxiu and the Spirit Demon King from time to time, until she saw the two of them slowly and methodically finish the two cups of fragrant tea, and then left the hall with a slightly happy face.
And not long after the maid left, Yu Xiu also said goodbye with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, but when he walked out of the main hall, he did not return to his residence immediately, but immediately found a very hidden place nearby when there was no one around, and hid quietly.
After a long while, when the familiar figure once again entered the range of Yu Xiu's soul sense, the sneer on the corner of Yu Xiu's mouth became even thicker, and he immediately hid his breath and quietly followed the figure, and sneaked into the apse dormitory like a maggot on the tarsal bone......
The next morning, a mournful cry from the apse dormitory woke up Yu Xiu and Lu'er who were sleeping soundly, and with incomprehension and curiosity, several people rushed to the source of the sound.
However, when Yu Xiu and others rushed in and squeezed into the scene, the scene that happened in front of them suddenly stunned the little friends, and even the two little girls, Yu Zishan and Lu'er, were so frightened that they covered their mouths with their pink little hands.
It turned out that at this time, in the apse dormitory, which is where the Spirit Demon King lived, there was a pool of blood that had just solidified and a thick snow wood branch, of course, this was only one of the key points, and the other point was that at the root of the snow wood branch, there was a pair of luxurious boots.
If you look closely, you will recognize that these boots are the boots that the Spirit Demon King specially wore when the feast was held last night! Of course, in addition to the boots, not far from the snow wood branch, a shining crystal ring belonging to the Spirit Demon King was also lying on the ground alone.
All the signs on the scene are conveying a message that makes all the Spirit Demon Clansmen almost suffocated, their Spirit Demon King, who has reigned for many years, has the highest cultivation of the whole clan to the Xuanzong Realm, has passed away last night, and the corpse is in front of their eyes!
Although the spirit demon clan will change into the image of human beings after receiving the aura of heaven and earth, and appear with the characteristics of the demon race, they are evolved from the snow wood beast after all, so after the death of these spirit demons, they will all change back to their original form, that is, the appearance of the snow wood beast.
Therefore, at this moment, the corpse will be presented in front of everyone in the shape of blood and snow wood branches, and the clansmen of the spirit demon clan will also determine that this is the corpse of their old clan king.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Just when Lu'er and the others were shocked and inexplicable, a hurried and irritable voice suddenly came, followed by the Marquis of Laba Zhou with a large group of his own guards, and quickly squeezed into the scene.
"This, what the hell is going on? Can anyone tell me, is this really my father-in-law?" Lamba Zhou Marquis looked incredulous, pointed to the surrounding high-ranking clansmen, and shouted loudly and angrily.
The appraisers and physicians in the clan stepped forward one after another, and replied tremblingly: "Report, report to Master Hou, after identification, we can basically confirm that this is the corpse of the old clan king, and the old clan king has really passed away!"
"What?" Hou Ye Laba Zhou immediately jumped up, as if he was extremely shocked, but no one saw the fleeting smug smile at the corner of his mouth.
I saw him pull the appraiser who spoke, and refuted as if he couldn't accept it: "Impossible, impossible! My father-in-law is so brave, how can he be so immortal? Impossible! You tell me, this is not true, this is not true!"
Alas, looking at the Marquis of Laba Zhou sitting on the ground with a dejected face, the surrounding high-level people in the clan were all moved, and said in their hearts, it is worthy of the old clan king who pulled the big child with one hand, and he really did not forget his roots!
But they never thought that at this time, Lord Hou, who was highly respected by them, was secretly overjoyed by his exquisite acting skills!
After a long time in this way, Hou Ye Laba Zhou seemed to have finally recovered from the immortal death of the old clan king, and slowly stood up, his face showing a serious and resentful look again.
"Come on, immediately block this place for Ben Hou Ye, make every effort to investigate this major matter, don't let go of any clues, be sure to find out the murderer of my father-in-law as soon as possible, Ben Hou Ye must break him into ten thousand pieces!"
"Yes, Master Hou!" the guards replied in unison, and then they all got busy and investigated.
Soon, the first message came, "Report to the Hou Ye, the guard in charge of guarding the old clan king woke up last night, he said that he had seen the murderer, but he was knocked unconscious later, and he only woke up now, and said that he would come to see you immediately!"
"Oh, bring him over immediately, and let this marquis personally interrogate him!" Laba Zhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered his men to do it.
Not long after, the guard was brought to the front of everyone, and as soon as he saw the corpse of the old clan king and the Marquis of Laba Zhou, he immediately began to cry bitterly, as if he was very sad that the old clan king was murdered.
"Tell the Hou Ye and all the adults, last night, I was guarding outside the old king's dormitory, and at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared, it was him! It was this person! I could see it clearly!"
The guard wiped his eyes and tears and was just halfway through speaking, when he suddenly saw Yuxiu standing quietly not far away, and immediately exclaimed loudly.
And as soon as he shouted like this, Yu Xiu and the others, who were originally playing soy sauce nearby, suddenly became the focus, and the eyes of all the high-level officials and guards of the Spirit Demon Clan were projected on Yu Xiu's body.
The guard's exclamation continued, "Master Hou, you quickly let this kid be arrested! When I was fighting with him last night, I tore off his face covering cloth, and what I saw was such a face, and besides, there was that jade pendant hanging on his chest!"
This guy's voice was very eager, as if he couldn't wait to identify Yu Xiu as the murderer, and after listening to his identification, the corners of the mouth of the Marquis of Laba Zhou immediately crossed a sneer.
Then, he gave an order and ordered his guards to immediately surround Yuxiu and the others, looking eager to try, as if they were going to do something to them at any time.
Seeing this situation, Yu Xiu's face was still calm, but Zishan, Lu'er and the others immediately pointed at the guard with indignation, and refuted in a coquettish voice: "You are talking nonsense and spewing blood! My brother Yuxiu will not do such a thing, you are simply slandering!"
"Heh, slander?" Who knows, but the Marquis of Laba Zhou sneered cruelly, "What evidence do the two young ladies have to prove that the most loyal guard in our palace would slander this kid in this matter? If it weren't for his murder against my father-in-law, do you think he is worthy of being slandered?"
Besides, if this Hou Ye remembers correctly, I would be surprised that a few of you just arrived in my spirit demon area yesterday, why didn't we come here when you didn't come, why did my father-in-law die that night as soon as you came? Could it be that all this is a coincidence?"
As soon as Hou Ye Laba Zhou's cold words with extremely obvious metaphors came out, the hearts of the high-level people in the clan suddenly moved, and almost everyone at the same time, concentrated their extremely unkind gazes towards Yuxiu, and the meaning contained in it was doubt, incomprehension, and of course, a large amount of resentment.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and at this moment, the doctor's appraisal results came out, "Tell Master Hou, the cause of death of the old clan king has been confirmed, it should be that he first fell into the poison of the traitor's Dry Yuan Devouring Spirit Gu, and then was killed by the traitor with a knife under the lack of energy!"
"Withered Yuan Devouring Spirit Gu?" All the Spirit Demon Clansmen, including the Marquis of Laba Zhou, were all shocked, and then the Hou Ye, who was secretly happy, continued, "Isn't this Withered Yuan Devouring Spirit Gu only visible to the outside world, why did it suddenly appear in my Spirit Demon Area?"
As soon as these words came out, the meaning of the inner was obvious, and the spirit demon clan present at the moment basically did not doubt the previous assertion anymore, and they all looked at the center with resentment, and Yu Xiu, who had never said a word.
"Stop it, we believe that Yuxiu Gongzi is innocent!"
