Chapter 348: Identifying the Murderer
Murray looked around, his face was extremely ugly, and he said angrily, "Who is it? Who did this qiΔ?"
At this moment, Murray shouted into the void and said, "Bring Zhou Yang and Tang He to me, I want to ask them, how did they protect Ling Zhan? Why did such a big thing happen, and they didn't react at all?"
Murray's words made Mu Kong's expression very ugly, because he was also tasked with protecting Ling Zhan! But now that such a thing happened on Liuyun Peak, he didn't even notice it, and it could be said that the other party made a move under his nose, which made Mu Kong very ashamed.
However, Mukong was most worried about Ling Zhan's safety.
In fact, Mu Hollow also knew in his heart that in this kind of Cheng DΓΉ's explosion, with Ling Zhan's cultivation, he would definitely not survive. But I don't know why, Mu Kong always felt that Ling Zhan shouldn't die so easily, because he had too many hole cards, and God knows if he had any way to escape.
At this time, Fang Qingzhi also appeared on Liuyun Peak.
When he saw the tragic scene on Liuyun Peak at this moment, a trace of killing intent flashed in Fang Qingzhi's eyes. For Ling Zhan, Fang Qingzhi had always been grateful, until now he hadn't forgotten the situation when Ling Zhan left the opportunity to accept the inheritance of Yu Ming's Array Dao to himself, and now that Ling Zhan was actually attacked in Liuyun Peak, how could this make Fang Qingzhi not angry?
Fang Qingzhi said: "Master, Senior Brother Mukong, our top priority now is to confirm whether Senior Brother Ling Zhan was really killed?"
Murray nodded and said, "Mr. Fang is right, the safety of Senior Brother Ling Zhan is the most important. β
After speaking, Murray closed his eyes, and then began to search for Ling Zhan's storage with his divine thoughts, and in an instant, the scene within a radius of dozens of miles was clearly presented in Murray's mind.
Hey!
Murray couldn't help but sigh softly, there was no trace of Ling Zhan within a radius of dozens of miles, how could this be?
Even if Ling Zhan was killed, there would have been some blood stains or something, but there was nothing around, which surprised Murray.
When Murray told him about the situation, Mu Kong's eyes lit up and said, "Senior Brother Ling Zhan has a lot of means to save his life, even if I want to kill him, it's not so easy. So I guess that Senior Brother Ling Zhan is not dead at all, maybe he is hiding somewhere. β
Murray nodded, it's not impossible.
At this moment, two people appeared on Liuyun Peak.
When they saw the scene on Liuyun Peak, a trace of horror and panic flashed in their eyes.
Seeing Murray standing there with a gloomy face, the two of them immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Zhou Yang (Tang He) has seen the sect master!"
Murray didn't look at them, but snorted and said, "If I'm not mistaken, your task should be to protect Ling Zhan! But look at how you protect Ling Zhan's junior brother, well?
Zhou Yang's face was depressed, and he said, "Sect Master, I was called away by Elder Hu just now, and he said that the Sect Master has something important to look for me. β
Murray's eyes narrowed slightly, two fine lights flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Is this what Elder Hu really told you?"
Zhou Yang nodded and said, "In front of the sect master, Zhou Yang didn't dare to say half a lie, it was indeed Elder Hu who asked me to leave just now." β
Murray shifted his gaze to Tang He's body again, and said, "What about you?
Murray's pressure made Tang He feel a lack of breath for a while, and he said tremblingly: "Just now, the painstaking elder of the torture hall came to his subordinates and said that he had something important to discuss with his subordinates. β
Elder Hu?
Looking at the two martial saints half-kneeling on the ground, Murray actually smelled a hint of conspiracy.
It was a bit too much of a coincidence that both of them were taken away at the same time, and they were both martial saints who protected Ling Zhan.
At this time, Murray had already concluded that this was a conspiracy against Ling Zhan and a killing game against Ling Zhan!
But what makes Murray wonder in his heart is, who is so desperate for Ling Zhan's life?
Could it be the Soul Eater Sect?
If it was really someone from the Soul Devouring Sect who did it, it would be terrifying.
Murray knew very well that among the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, there were no more than ten people who knew the identities of the two Martial Saints who protected Ling Zhan, and each of them had a pivotal position in the sect.
And if someone really instructed Elder Hu and Elder Painstaking to do this, then this person must be one of these ten people! But the problem is that the identities of these people are too sensitive, and if they want to investigate, it will inevitably cause a great turmoil in the sect, which is obviously what Murray does not want to see.
Just when Murray was confused, a look of joy suddenly appeared on Mukong's face.
Seeing Mukong like this, Murray's heart suddenly gave birth to a trace of dissatisfaction. You must know that now Ling Zhan's life and death are uncertain, as Ling Zhan's senior brother, Mu Kong will actually show a smile, this is too chilling!
But Mu Kong's next words made Murray's face also appear a little relaxed.
Mu Kong said softly: "Just now, my master sent me a message, saying that Senior Brother Ling Zhan is not dead, but he has entered a secret realm, and it won't be long before he will return to the sect." β
Mukong's words were like a reassuring pill for Murray, which instantly calmed down his somewhat restless heart. For Mishan Wuzun's words, several people present were convinced.
Murray said: "Senior Uncle Mishan, his old man has spoken, Senior Brother Ling Zhan is at least safe now." Then the most important thing for us now is to find out the murderer who planned this assassination, and at least get justice for Senior Brother Ling Zhan!"
Mu Kong nodded, and said with some gritted teeth: "What the head of the sect said is right, we must find out this person, this person is too dangerous for the sect." β
Fang Qingzhi said: "But obviously, this person is very deeply hidden, and it is not so easy to find him." β
Murray snorted and said, "Even if this person hides deeply, this seat must find him out!"
At this moment, a disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect came to Murray's approach and said, "Sect Master, Wu Xin, the housekeeper of Liuyun Peak, asks to see you!"
Murray snorted and said, "Hmph, as the housekeeper of Liuyun Peak, it is a dereliction of duty to let such a big thing happen to Liuyun Peak!"
Of course, Murray just said this, and he also knew in his heart that the least person who participated in this assassination was a martial saint-level master, and Wu Xin was just a martial king, which was not something he could mix at all.
At this time, Wu Xin already knew what was happening on Liuyun Peak, he came to Murray's approach, bowed tremblingly, and said, "Wu Xin has seen the sect master, Elder Mukong, and Elder Fang. β
Murray snorted and said angrily: "Okay, let me ask you, before the explosion just now, was there anything different on your Liuyun Peak from what it was on weekdays?"
Wu Xin shook his head and said, "There is no change. β
Although he already knew the answer, after Wu Xin said it, Murray still felt disappointed. In fact, Murray knew in his heart that since the other party could know who the protector he sent to Ling Zhan's side was, this operation must have been carefully planned. It would be really strange if Wu Xin could find out what was wrong.
Murray waved his hand to Wu Xin and said, "Okay, it's okay, you go down!"
At this time, Mu Kong saw that Wu Xin seemed to be talking and stopped, so he said, "Wu Xin, you seem to have something to say?"
Wu Xin nodded, and under the gaze of the three Martial Saint-level masters, he said stubbornly: "Sect Master, I want to ask, how is our Peak Master now?"
Seeing the worried look in Wu Xin's eyes, Murray sighed and said, "Even if you kid has a little conscience, don't worry, your peak master is blessed with a great life, and nothing happens, but it won't appear in a short time." β
Hearing that Ling Zhan had nothing to do, Wu Xin breathed a long sigh of relief, and he even felt that the pressure on his body seemed to disappear all at once.
After Wu Xin left, Murray said: "This Wu Xin is not bad except for his cultivation to be a little lower. β
Mu Kong nodded, Wu Xin walked out of his Aoki Peak after all, if Wu Xin's character was not good, Mu Kong would not let him be a housekeeper on Ling Zhan's Liuyun Peak.
At this time, Mu Kong said in a deep voice: "If a Martial Saint-level master appears on Liuyun Peak, with my spiritual sense, I can detect it in an instant, but why didn't I feel anything tonight? This is very strange. β
Murray also fell into deep thought, which was also what surprised Murray.
At this moment, Fang Qingzhi suddenly picked up something similar to dead wood from the ground, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Seeing that Fang Qingzhi had made a discovery, Murray hurriedly asked, "Mr. Fang, what did you find?"
Fang Qingzhi lit up the pitch-black dead wood in his hand and said, "Do you know what this is?"
Mu Kong said: "Is it part of Ling Zhan's house?"
Fang Qingzhi shook his head and said, "This is the Thunder Fire Wood Pith!"
Thunder Fire Wood Pith?
Mukong and Murray glanced at each other, and they both saw a deep incomprehension in each other's eyes.
Mu Kong said: "Mr. Fang, what is this Thunder Fire Wood Pith for?"
Fang Qingzhi said with a smile: "This is the material for arranging the formation!"
Murray thought for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Ling Zhan is a formation mage himself, so there shouldn't be anything strange about finding formation materials in his room!"
Fang Qingzi shook his head and said, "No, it's very strange! As far as I know, Senior Brother Ling Zhan pays attention to practicality when arranging formations, and generally speaking, he would never use such precious materials to arrange formations. Moreover, this Thunder Fire Wood Pulp is a material for arranging the Gathering Formation!"
As soon as Mu Kong and Murray heard the word Gathering Formation, their eyes immediately lit up, and they seemed to have figured out something.
Mu Kong said: "Mr. Fang, are you saying that the other party arranged a breathing formation outside Ling Zhan's room, blocking all the qiΔ breath, so I didn't find any trace of the other party?"
Fang Qingzhi nodded and said, "It should be so!"
As soon as they thought of the formation, the three of them glanced at each other, and then almost said in unison: "It's Nanming!"
