Chapter 044: The Assassin
Originally, Yan Shuangling wanted to talk to Yan Yunxiao, so as to find clues that Chu Tianshu suddenly became a cultivation genius, but she was embarrassed by Yan Yunxiao's sudden talk about "having the same room", so she naturally couldn't talk about it, so she had to return to her residence.
Flipping through the second half of the cheats of "Tianhe Yuan Gong", Yan Shuangling was ready to cultivate.
This secret book was given by the second uncle, and it was also full of his own exercise annotations and cultivation experiences. However, it has been a few days since he practiced the second half of the exercises, but there has been no obvious progress. Maybe it's because I've been having a hard time calming down lately!
It's all to blame on that bastard Chu Tianshu! Ever since he got married, he has hardly allowed himself to live in peace!
But...... What kind of method did this guy use to make his cultivation improve by leaps and bounds?
Finding that his thoughts involuntarily turned to Chu Tianshu's body, Yan Shuangling quickly shook his head, calmed his mind, and focused on cultivating according to the methods contained in the secret book.
The second uncle specifically explained in the cheats that after cultivating Tianhe Yuan Gong and reaching the Great Perfection of the Ning Yuan Realm, he would encounter a bottleneck. We must face it with great perseverance and a strong state of mind in order to have a chance to move forward. Otherwise, you will stop at the Great Perfection of the Ning Yuan Realm for the rest of your life, and you will not be able to touch the second realm of martial arts cultivation, the Chong Qi Realm.
It is said that there are many predecessors of the Yan family, all of whom have been stuck in this bottleneck. Although Yan Shuangling was talented, she didn't dare to be careless, referring to the second uncle's annotations, plus her own opinions, and cultivating steadily step by step.
However, a bottleneck is a bottleneck after all, and it is not easy to break through. Yan Shuangling urged the True Yuan, circulating in his body many times, but there was no progress at all.
Alas, it would be great if he could break through one after another casually like Chu Tianshu!
Thinking like this in his mind, Yan Shuangling suddenly realized that in the past, when he was cultivating, he was always engrossed and never wandered, how could his thoughts drift to Chu Tianshu twice today! This is not a good phenomenon!
Maybe...... Today, between Chu Tianshu's laughter, his cultivation soared one after another, and the shock he brought to himself was too great!
Yan Shuangling shook her head vigorously again, allowing herself to regain her composure and concentrate on cultivation again......
Just when Yan Shuangling was immersed in the cultivation world, the residence of Yan Zhenfeng, the fourth elder of the Yan family, Yan Qianlong quietly walked out of the courtyard, flashed by, and disappeared into the vast night.
Fang Cai Yan Zhenfeng made a big fuss at Yan Zhenyu's house, and after returning home at a loss, it didn't take long for Yan Qianlong to enter his home under the banner of visiting Yan Chaoying.
At this time, Yan Chaoying had already woken up from fainting under the care of the family physician, and his broken leg had been bandaged. Yan Qianlong cared about him for a few words, and then asked in detail about how he was broken by Chu Tianshu at that time.
Yan Chaoying was originally aggrieved. He obviously watched Chu Tianshu display his superb strength and break his leg, but no one believed it! Now seeing that Yan Qianlong didn't suspect that he had taken the wrong medicine like others, he was very relieved in his heart, and told him what happened at that time.
Although Yan Chaoying said that the picture is colorful, the details are abnormal. But Yan Qianlong also didn't believe that the person who injured him was really Chu Tianshu.
Today, his father, the head of the family, the four elders, and himself had all personally probed Chu Tianshu's cultivation, and he definitely couldn't hide it from these people. And that's just one of them.
In addition, Yan Qianlong also has an ironclad piece of evidence that he has never told anyone, which is enough to prove that Chu Tianshu has absolutely no hidden cultivation, that is, on the day of marriage, the person who assassinated Chu Tianshu was Yan Qianlong himself!
If Chu Tianshu really had superb cultivation as Yan Chaoying said, then when he assassinated him, how could he not resist at all and obediently wait for death?
No one will ever die, and they will have to keep a disguise. Therefore, Yan Qianlong firmly believed that Chu Tianshu's cultivation was really very low.
The only thing that puzzled him was that at that time, he made a sneak attack, and the force he used was very heavy, and with Chu Tianshu's cultivation, he would definitely die. But it is inexplicable that he came back alive later.
Fortunately, Yan Qianlong acted cautiously, and when he sneaked up, he didn't let Chu Tianshu see any traces. Therefore, even if he came back from the dead, he would not be able to testify against himself.
However, when he was at Yan Zhenyu's house today, this guy who didn't learn or knew how to do it suddenly pointed the finger at himself for assassination. Is this just a coincidence?
Also, who was the person who disguised himself as Chu Tianshu and broke Yan Chaoying's leg? Could it be that Yan Zhenyu specially invited him bodyguards in order to protect him?
One question after another, Yan Qianlong, who prided himself on being smart, had no clue for a while.
However, no matter what, Chu Tianshu is a person, Yan Qianlong must be killed! Even if Yan Zhenyu prepares a bodyguard for Chu Tianshu, it is impossible for the bodyguard to follow him around the clock. As long as you seize the opportunity by yourself and kill him again, it will still be like picking up something!
With infinite killing intent surging in his heart, Yan Qianlong returned to his home. After closing the door, I just wanted to light the lamp, when a cold voice suddenly sounded in the room: "Qianlong, where have you been, and you came back so late?"
Yan Qianlong was startled, and heard that it was his father Yan Zhentang's voice, so he calmed down and said, "Dad, why are you here with me! I just went to see how Yan Chaoying's injuries were. The Four Elders have always been your staunch supporters, and you should be more generous with his son. ”
Yan Zhentang said: "Is it really just a trap? Your real purpose, don't you plan to tell your father?"
Yan Qianlong forced a smile and said, "Dad, what are you talking about?
Yan Zhentang snorted coldly, lowered his voice, and said word by word: "On the day Yan Shuangling got married, the person who assassinated Chu Tianshu during the wedding was you, right?"
Yan Qianlong didn't deny it, but asked rhetorically: "Dad, your old man has always been wise and martial, how could you listen to what Chu Tianshu said so easily?"
"Hmph, you are my son, I am your son, what have you done, do I still need to listen to outsiders to know? I just can't figure it out a little, he is just an insignificant son-in-law, if you kill him, Yan Zhenyu can still find someone else for Yan Shuangling to intervene in the door, it can't change the fact that Yan Shuangling will stay in the Yan family at all, why do you have to risk attacking Chu Tianshu?"
Yan Qianlong shook his head and denied: "Dad, you really misunderstood, the person who attacked Chu Tianshu was not me. ”
Seeing that his son didn't admit it, Yan Zhentang laughed instead: "If you don't see the coffin, you won't cry, and you won't let go until the last moment, this is like me! Let me ask you, what are you asking the people below to keep an eye on Chu Tianshu's movements these days? Yan Chaoying is just a stupid person, if it weren't for your guidance, he wouldn't have been able to block Chu Tianshu outside the city so accurately!" Also, Chu Tianshu asked you today, who you were with during the wedding, and whether you left these things halfway, if it is really verified, even if it can't directly prove you, it will be enough to bring you great trouble!"
After a pause, Yan Zhentang continued: "I might as well tell you, your father and I have thought of this a long time ago, and we have already asked the people on the day of marriage to inquire carefully, and someone can prove that you did leave alone at the time when Chu Tianshu was assassinated!"
Hearing this, Yan Qianlong couldn't help but be moved: "This is indeed my negligence! Dad, Yan Zhenyu has also been tracking down these days, we must deal with it as soon as possible!"
"Hmph, when you think of this, I'm afraid you have already been approached by Yan Zhenyu! Don't worry, your father and I have already got all the people who can prove it, and if he checks the entire family, he won't be able to find any clues!"
"Dad, Jiang is really old and spicy, I really can't hide anything from you!" Yan Qianlong sincerely expressed his admiration.
Yan Zhentang's face showed a smug look: "Are you finally willing to admit it now?"
Yan Qianlong clenched his fists and said, "Yes, the person who killed Chu Tianshu in the world was indeed me!"
Yan Zhentang asked puzzledly, "I don't understand, why do you have to kill him?"
