When Yin Tiancheng heard the news from the guards who followed him, he couldn't help but smile, he felt that this protector of Tianxin Pavilion was too bold, even if it was really as Sect Master Liu said, there was a murderous intent hidden in the Hou Mansion, then it should be investigated clearly before leaving.

After all, no matter how strong Murong Mansion's strength is, it is impossible to offend Tianxin Pavilion on the surface, so why should this Dharma protector leave in a hurry.

Yin Tiancheng had instinctively sensed Ming Zhiyuan's death, ostensibly because of stealing the elixir, but he always felt that this incident happened too suddenly, and there seemed to be an ulterior secret behind it.

In the blink of an eye, late at night, when Yin Tiancheng covered the door, he found that the two guards who had been accompanying him during the day had not left, but he was afraid of being discovered, so he hid behind the rockery and stretched out his head to spy on the movements here.

The corners of Yin Tiancheng's mouth outlined a snicker, knowing that he was being watched, it seemed that Murong Liang was only polite to him on the surface, and secretly he was also on guard.

Just as he was about to go to bed to rest, he suddenly saw a green light floating in the room, and it flew like a bug.

Yin Tiancheng was surprised, and then stretched out his index finger and flicked it, and suddenly a wave of energy burst out from his fingertips and hit the green light.

With a "snap", the green light dimmed, and it rolled in the air a few times before falling towards the table, and flew up strangely when it was about to get close to the table.

This also made Yin Tiancheng see that it was a flying insect that had never been seen before, and its body size was not much bigger than a mosquito.

After Yin Tiancheng hit the flying insect, the green light emitted from its body became fainter and fainter, and in the end, it no longer glowed.

There was no evil aura in the house, which made Yin Tiancheng realize that it was just an innocent creature, so he couldn't bear to hurt it again, but watched it fly out of the open window with his eyes, and finally merged with the night.

But then, Yin Tiancheng's gaze fell on the table and did not move.

At some point, there was an extra piece of pale gold cardboard on the spotless table, which did not belong in the room.

When Yin Tiancheng took this piece of paper in his hand, his eyes immediately widened, and this tattered piece of paper turned out to be a fragment of an invitation that he couldn't find after searching for a long time during the day.

Yin Tiancheng suddenly understood that the flying insect in the house just now was not an ordinary insect, it was driven by someone to give him this piece of paper.

"Is anyone secretly helping themselves?" Yin Tiancheng noticed that among the cultivators who were invited to come, there were also people like him, secretly investigating the secrets hidden behind the Immortal Ascension Conference.

There are a few blood words written on the piece of paper, and it is likely to be a clue left by Ming Zhiyuan.

This made Yin Tiancheng even more confirmed the judgment in his heart, a person who is dying is imperative to save his life, and he will never do such a boring thing as tearing up the invitation.

When Yin Tiancheng squinted to identify the blood word, he was suddenly shocked, and even his hand holding the piece of paper couldn't help but tremble.

In an instant, he felt as if he knew all the mysteries, although there were still some details that he couldn't figure out.

Due to Ming Zhiyuan's low cultivation, he had no chance to get the elixir when he participated in the ring competition, so he had an evil idea and came up with the crooked idea of stealing the elixir.

But he never dreamed that when he killed the guards and opened the box to check whether the elixir was genuine, he accidentally discovered Murong Liang's ultimate purpose of holding the Immortal Ascension Conference.

It was only at this time that Yin Tiancheng understood why when he was examining Ming Zhiyuan's body, he had a small wound on his right index finger that had been bitten.

At that time, Ming Zhiyuan had no time to tell the news to others, so he only tore off the corner of the invitation, bit his index finger and wrote the secret on the piece of paper with blood, and then started a life-and-death battle with those disturbed guards.

Although he eventually died by the swords of the guards, this small piece of paper remained, waiting for others to find out the truth of the matter.

Then a new question emerged in Yin Tiancheng's mind, that is, who found this small piece of paper that hid key clues?

What's even more strange is that the only people who can stay at the scene of the crime during the day are people from the Hou Mansion besides himself, could it be that the person who delivered the information to him was a certain guard in the mansion?

Just as Yin Tiancheng was pondering, the strange little green flying insect actually flew back again.

It kept circling around Yin Tiancheng's head, and when it saw that it had successfully attracted the attention of the other party, it flew in the direction of the window, but it did not fly out of the window, but stayed at the window.

At the same time, Yin Tiancheng found that this was not the little insect that he had just seen delivering pieces of paper, but another one.

Because this flying insect is much larger than the previous one, if you don't distinguish it carefully, you will think that it is a mutated green fly.

Seeing Yin Tiancheng standing still, the green worm flew back again, circled around him, and then flew towards the window.

This time, Yin Tiancheng finally understood what it meant, it turned out that this insect wanted to let himself go out with it.

He couldn't help but walk to the door, and when he looked through the crack in the door, he saw that the two guards watching him seemed to be gone.

Yin Tiancheng was a little surprised, and in order to confirm his judgment, he opened the door and pretended to go out.

Sure enough, as soon as the two guards saw that Yin Tiancheng was going out, they immediately poked their heads out from behind the rockery, and when they saw Yin Tiancheng looking towards them, they immediately shrank back.

Yin Tiancheng suddenly became angry, walked directly to the back of the rockery, and stared at the two guards with interest.

"Dao Chief, you haven't rested yet?" the expressions of the two guards suddenly became a little embarrassed.

Yin Tiancheng said coldly: "Don't you also have a rest? Why don't you go and sit in my room?"

Seeing that these two guys hesitated and didn't move, Yin Tiancheng said again: "Since you two like to blow the night breeze so much, then the poor Dao has no choice but to fulfill your wishes." ”

He burst into laughter, and the two guards laughed along, but then they couldn't laugh anymore.

Because Yin Tiancheng did not leave just now, on the contrary, his eyes became cold.

By the time they realized that the situation was not good, Yin Tiancheng had already made a move like lightning and hit the sleeping hole of the two.

The two guards immediately slumped to the ground as a puddle of mud.

Yin Tiancheng took one of their feet in one hand and dragged the two guys to his room, where they were thrown into the corner like dead dogs.

The cyan flying insect lay quietly on the window lattice, waiting for Yin Tiancheng.

After Yin Tiancheng eliminated the two guards who were watching, he came to the front of the green worm and wanted to catch it.

But the little insect deftly flew up and stayed outside the window, and it didn't continue to fly forward until Yin Tiancheng jumped out as well.

At this time, the night was already three watches, the light moon was sparse, Murong Mansion was as quiet as a ghost domain, and Yin Tian followed the flying insect like a wandering soul on a path that he had never walked before.

Although the end of the road was still in the Murong Mansion, there was a courtyard, which was gloomy and dark, without any lights, as if the people who lived in it had already fallen asleep, and they didn't realize that there would be a sudden visit from strangers.

The cyan insect flew straight into the courtyard and never came out, which made Yin Tiancheng know that he had reached his destination.

Just when Yin Tiancheng was thinking about whether to cross the fence and sneak into the courtyard to spy on the movement, he was surprised to find that the gate was not locked, and it opened a crack slightly.

Yin Tiancheng gave up the idea of climbing over the wall, came directly to the courtyard gate, looked in through the crack in the door, and found that it was a smooth and mirror-like flat ground inside, with a faint silver light under the moonlight.

Strangely enough, there were no houses or buildings in the courtyard, and it seemed that there were no secrets here, otherwise the door would not have been closed in the middle of the night.

This disappointed Yin Tiancheng, and he couldn't understand why the cyan flying insect brought him to this ghost place.

And at this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps on the road where he came, which made Yin Tiancheng realize that someone was coming, but he immediately found that except for this courtyard, there was grass all around, and he couldn't even see a big tree, so he couldn't find a hiding place at all.

Yin Tiancheng had to push open the courtyard door and sneak inside, when he covered the door, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and he could already hear that two people were about to come here.

Yin Tiancheng turned around in a panic and walked into the yard, but when he stepped on the air, he fell into the water with a "plop".

The water was so deep that he felt like he was sinking several feet and couldn't see the bottom.

Yin Tiancheng realized that there was a deep pond in the yard, and he quickly kicked his legs upstream, and then his head was exposed to the water.

But then the two night walkers pushed open the courtyard door and stood in the doorway looking in.

In case they discovered his whereabouts, Yin Tiancheng hurriedly shrank his body and dived back into the pond.

Under the water, Yin Tiancheng heard the voices of the two of them, although it was a little hazy, but he could still hear it clearly.

I only heard one person scolding: "Hmph, I'm really right, you kid knows how to drink all day long, and often forgets to lock the door." ”

Another person said with a smile: "Brother is still cautious, I will definitely quit drinking in the future, and I will never neglect my duties." ”

After a pause, the man said again: "I seem to have heard a loud sound of water just now, it can't be that someone fell into the water, right?"

"Hmph, who's going to run to this hellish place in the middle of the night! ”

"What my brother said is very true. ”

The two men said no more, locked the door, and went back to sleep.

Yin Tiancheng was afraid that they would go and return, so he hibernated in the water for a quarter of an hour before he dared to dive out of the water to breathe.

At this time, he found that there was a pond in the yard, and there were some debris floating on the water, but the night was too dark for him to see what these debris were.

The pond is surrounded by a wall three or four feet high, and the waning moon hangs on the high wall, and the whole pond is shrouded in darkness, giving people a terrifying and eerie feeling.

"It's strange, why did Murong Liang use a wall to hide this pond and send someone to guard it?"

Yin Tiancheng muttered as he swam towards the door, when suddenly he stopped moving, and there was a look of horror in his eyes.

It was only because he could see the floating object in front of him clearly when he was swimming, and it turned out to be a human head.

When Yin Tiancheng swam over and grabbed the cold human head into his hand to check it, he could no longer keep his composure, this human head turned out to be the dead Ming Yunfei!

Yin Tiancheng suddenly gasped, although the misdeeds of the Ming Zhiyuan brothers angered Murong Liang, they were already dead, even if Murong Liang hated them, he shouldn't cut off their heads, which was a bit too inhumane.

But why did Murong Liang throw his head in the pond, and did Ming Yuanfei's body also abandon it in the pond?

As far as the eye could see, there was no floating object like a corpse on the water, which made Yin Tiancheng more and more frightened the more he thought about it, so he gave up the idea of going ashore and dived into the water again to find Ming Yuanfei's body.

What he didn't expect was that the pond was very deep, and he dived down more than ten zhang in a row before approaching the bottom of the pond.

At this time, he saw a faint light flickering in front of the right side of the pond bottom, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but be stunned, and then swam towards the light.

It was a black door that emitted a faint glow, and I don't know what metal it was made of, and it had been soaked in water for a long time, and there was not a trace of rust on the façade.

Yin Tiancheng pushed hard with his hand, and the black door actually gave him the feeling of weighing more than a thousand catties, but a crack was slightly exposed.

So he pressed his hands on the door and pushed it with all his strength, and this time, the black door was finally slowly pushed open by him.

As soon as Yin Tiancheng squeezed in and swam in, the person was already standing on the ground.

Looking back, the pond seemed to be blocked out of the Black Gate by a mysterious force, and the location of him was a cave.

The cave was full of stalactites, and they emitted the same luminescent light as the Black Gate, which gave Yin Tiancheng a very strange feeling, as if he had come to the legendary Crystal Palace, but he didn't know if there was a giant dragon hidden in the cave.

There was a deathly silence in the cave, and Yin Tiancheng smelled a faint smell of blood in his nose, which made him feel as if he had come to the hell world under the Nine Springs.

But even so, Yin Tiancheng has to take a peek at it, after all, he has seen too many horror scenes when he was handling cases before, which is nothing to him.

Walking along the road, when he reached the deepest part of the cave, what appeared in front of Yin Tiancheng was a piece of artificially trimmed flat land, and a huge gossip pattern was paved with stones on the ground.

The smell of blood became stronger and stronger, Yin Tiancheng covered his nose, and saw a stone tripod with a height of a zhang in the middle of the gossip, and a black stone statue was erected in front of the tripod.

Yin Tiancheng suddenly felt that the face of the stone statue was a little familiar, and he hurriedly walked in front of the stone statue to take a closer look.

When he saw the face of the stone statue clearly, he was immediately taken aback, it turned out to be extremely similar to the face of the mirage Sun Wangye, and even the costume carved out of the surface of the body was also that kind of strange royal costume.

"Damn, Murong Liang is really not a good thing, he really has a connection with that mirage, and he worships this demon as a god!"

After Yin Tiancheng scolded angrily, he noticed that the heavy smell of blood was wafting out of the stone ding, he hurriedly walked to the edge of the ding, tiptoed to look inside, and almost vomited with nausea because of this.
