Chapter 177: I Love My Master

After thinking over all the details of the room, several important clues came to his mind.

Judging by the cause of the victim's death, they died by crushing their skulls in an instant.

You know, in the composition of the human body, the skull can be regarded as a relatively hard part.

Moreover, after the monk enters the path of cultivation and cultivates spiritual power in his body, the bones in various parts of his body will also be strengthened accordingly.

Although it is not as strong as the physique, the bones of the monk's head are not so casually destroyed.

What's more, the perpetrator was still killed in one blow in an extreme amount of time.

If he wants to do this, either he has mastered an extremely powerful palm technique, and the palm power is different from others.

Either they have mastered a spiritual skill that can increase their strength, so that their grip strength can be quickly improved.

Secondly, from the small hole left in the clothes of the deceased, Liu Qing also came to a conclusion.

These small holes are the result of being subjected to high temperatures.

In other words, the perpetrator mainly used the fire attribute spiritual skill, otherwise he would not have left these traces at the scene.

Furthermore, it combines the motive for committing the crime and the ability to commit the crime.

Liu Qing's mind once again resurfaced the figure of Elder Li Mu.

He is still the one who is the most suspicious.

According to Liu Qing's understanding of Elder Li Mu, he did indeed master a very powerful palm technique, coupled with the strength of his Yuan Infant Realm.

It was not too easy to crush the skull of a Foundation Realm monk in an instant.

Secondly, Elder Li Mu was very proficient in refining pills, and his alchemy skills were also well-known in the entire Zhao Kingdom's immortal cultivation world.

And if you want to refine the perfect elixir, the requirements for monks are very harsh.

In addition to having a high affinity for the fire attribute in the aura, one must also be proficient in the art of fire control.

Elder Li Mu naturally has all of these.

Powerful palms, extremely proficient in the art of fire control, and has full ability and motivation to commit crimes.

No matter how unwilling Liu Qing is, he doesn't want to believe it.

But all kinds of signs show that Elder Li Mu is the biggest suspect in this incident.

But it was this inference that made Liu Qing's heart even more puzzled.

Just now, Elder Li Mu made an oath with his Dao heart in front of everyone, and what he represented was not just himself, but the entire elder group of the Qingling Sect.

If any of the six elders moved, the six of them would immediately shatter their hearts and explode to death.

The effect of the Dao Heart Oath will naturally not be doubted.

This can be said to be the most serious and domineering way of commitment in this immortal cultivation world.

If a monk breaks the promise he made with his Dao heart, punishment will come immediately.

However, the elders of the Qingling Sect, including Elder Li Mu, did not have the slightest abnormality at this time, which showed that these dead disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were really not their hands.

"No, almost all the evidence now points to Li Lao as the biggest suspect. ’

'If he is excluded, is it really the hands of the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect themselves? ’

Although what Elder Gong Huo said earlier was reasonable and well-founded, Liu Qing believed that the probability of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect doing it by himself was very small.

Because judging from the current situation, the overall strength of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect is not much stronger than that of the Qingling Sect at all.

Moreover, Xiao Sheng, the sect leader of the Qingling Sect, has never been missing, and no one knows whether he is really missing.

Before this issue was investigated, the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect would definitely not rashly make a move against the Qingling Sect.

Now, the two Yuanying Realm masters on the Pingding Peak, Li Lao and Jiang Lingyin, are all excluded.

The possibility of the elders of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect doing something to their own disciples was also almost none.

Then there is someone else who does this. ’

His purpose may be to intensify the contradiction between the Qingling Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. ’

Thus the fisherman profits! ’

If you think about it this way, it seems that the other three major sects can't get rid of suspicion.

Things are getting more and more troublesome. ’

Shaking his head vigorously, Liu Qing finally stopped thinking about it.

In his previous life, he hated mathematics and other subjects that relied on logic and reasoning.

Now for him to find the key to breaking the situation from such a complicated situation, it is even more difficult than sitting in the position of the sect master of the Qingling Sect.

Forget it, when the sky falls, there will naturally be a high top. ’

"Above me, there are six elders in the Qingling Sect, elders from the inner and outer sects, and disciples whose strength is several grades stronger than mine. ’

It's not my turn to do this investigation right now. ’

When Liu Qing was just thinking about it, Elder Li Mu had already assigned tasks to everyone.

The second elder, Cheng Sheng, and the eight personal disciples continued to be responsible for the placement and service of the four major sects.

The remaining five elders, plus the Jindan Realm elders who were in charge of the inner and outer gates, were doing their best to investigate the murder of the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter is related to whether my Qingling Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect can continue to be safe and sound, and please do your best!"

After everyone dispersed, Liu Qing was also about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Elder Li Mu.

"Boy Liu Qing, I have something to tell you!"

Liu Qing stopped and turned to look at the Great Elder of the Green Spirit Sect.

When the two first met, Li Lao gave Liu Qing the impression of an old naughty boy who was addicted to alcohol, free and easy, and unruly.

And now, from his somewhat old face, Liu Qing clearly saw tiredness and helplessness.

"Elder Li called the juniors, is there something wrong?"

Elder Li Mu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he never said a word.

Just stood like this for half a minute or so before he slowly spoke:

"Go to you and tell me."

In this way, Liu Qing took Li Lao to his room on the top of the Pingding Peak.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Lao set up an isolation barrier around the room.

Liu Qing performed fire control techniques and quickly made a pot of tea.

"Old Li, let's have a cup of tea first."

Seeing Liu Qing bring a cup of hot tea to him, Li Lao sat down.

Picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The rich aroma of tea is tangy, and the sweet tea soup enters the throat.

The tiredness on his face was slightly soothed.

"What is the matter with Elder Li looking for me?"

Elder Li Mu looked at Liu Qing in front of him, and his face was full of seriousness.

Then, he asked a question that shocked Liu Qing very much.

"Jiang Lingyin, the valley master of Miaoyin Valley, did you look for you last night?"

Hearing that there seemed to be something unkind in Li Lao's tone, Liu Qing's heart chuckled.

Normally, in order to ensure the safety of the sect, Liu Qing should have reported to the sect about the secret infiltration of the sect masters of other sects.

This was his duty as a disciple of the Qingling Sect.

But for some reason, Liu Qing didn't tell Li Lao about this matter as soon as possible.

Now, such a big thing has happened in the Qingling Sect again.

It's hard not to be skeptical.

What Liu Qing is thinking now is that Li Lao is looking for himself to ask for guilt.

But before Liu Qing could admit his mistake, Li Lao took the lead in speaking.

"Actually, I knew about this matter a long time ago, otherwise how do you think she could enter my Qingling Sect so easily?"

The reason why Jiang Lingyin came to Qingling Sect in the form of Chu Feixue was mainly to prevent those elders in Miaoyin Valley from catching the handle.

But she also knew very well in her heart that in addition to Xiao Sheng, the sect master who had disappeared for many years, there was another powerhouse in the Yuanying Realm.

That was Great Elder Li Mu.

The fact that she entered the Qingling Sect in disguise could be hidden from those elders of the Jindan Realm, but she couldn't hide it from Li Mu, who was also a powerhouse in the Yuanying Realm.

Therefore, for the smooth progress of this trip, Jiang Lingyin got in touch with Elder Li Mu before coming to Qingling Sect.

After paying some price, he was able to enter the Qingling Sect with his consent.

Hearing Elder Li Mu say this, Liu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

"It turns out that Old Li, you already knew, and you thought that you were going to ask the teacher for guilt."

Veteran Li drank the remaining tea in the cup, and then continued to look at Liu Qing and asked:

"You say, the death of these twenty or so disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was not done by this Jiang Lingyin?"

Facing Elder Li's question, Liu Qing immediately shook his head.

"No, last night when the Lord of the River Valley came to me, he made an oath with his Dao heart in front of me, and I promised her to help her keep this secret."

"She definitely didn't do this!"

Seeing that Liu Qing's expression was very serious, Li Lao laughed.

"I know that with your character, you will never allow the interests of the sect to be harmed."

"The time that this Jiang Lingyin has been sitting on the Miaoyin Valley Lord is too short, and some elders in the sect are not so obedient to her."

"That's why Jiang Yu was sent to Qingling Sect."

"Actually, according to Jiang Yu's qualifications, he can directly become a disciple of his own lineage, but because of his identity, he ......"

Elder Li Mu did not continue to say the following words.

Liu Qing also understood and nodded.

No matter what world you are in, people are extremely important when it comes to their origins.

Jiang Yu, as the son of the valley master of Miaoyin Valley, even if he had the best qualifications, it was absolutely impossible for him to be arranged to become a personal disciple.

"Having said that, what do you think about such a bad thing happening in the sect?"

After getting along with Liu Qing for more than half a year, Li Lao also has some understanding of him.

This is a matter that makes everyone have no clue, maybe Liu Qing may have other opinions here.

At the very least, his brain circuitry is very different from everyone else's.

Hearing Elder Li's question, Liu Qing was slightly stunned.

"Do you really want to hear what I think?"

"At this point, we don't have any clue about our investigation.

Just say what you know, and maybe it will help you with the investigation. ”

This is Elder Li Mu's current way of thinking, and it is better to have one more direction than not to have any clue at all.

As long as they have been working hard to investigate, they can also give the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect a little emotional comfort.

"Actually, I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I've indeed found some clues."

Next, Liu Qing told Elder Li Mu some of his thoughts and inferences.

After hearing this, Elder Li Mu couldn't help but gasp.

"If you continue to investigate according to your ideas, in the end, I will really be the most suspicious."

"If I didn't clearly know that I didn't do this, I'm afraid I can't help but doubt myself."

Seeing the wry smile on Elder Li Mu's face, a thought suddenly flashed through Liu Qing's mind.

"Wait, is there such a possibility, that murderer just wants to push this matter onto Li Laoyou's head."

"And then use this to deepen the contradiction between the Qingling Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?"

After Liu Qing's reminder, Li Lao also became a little conscious.

"Push it on my head, then this person must be more familiar with me......"

"In the past few decades, I have rarely appeared in the outside world, and I have hardly participated in the affairs of the sect.

Speaking of being familiar with me, I'm afraid that there are not a few people in the entire Zhao State Immortal Cultivation Realm. ”

"Who are these people?"

Suddenly found a new direction of investigation, which instantly raised a glimmer of hope in Liu Qing's heart.

So he hurriedly asked Li Lao.

"Let me think about ......"

"In the Qingling Sect, the people who know me best at the moment are the other five elders of the Elder Sect."

"But they all made an oath with their Dao hearts just now, and this matter is definitely not something they did."

"Moreover, they have no motive or ability to commit crimes."

"Besides them, the one who is most familiar with me is Lao Huang, Lao Huang has always been by my side, and it is impossible for him to do these things."

After excluding these people one by one, Li Lao fell into thinking again.

"Also, the scope can not be limited to our Qingling Sect."

Li Lao shook his head slightly, and then nodded.

"There are two more people, but they also have no possibility of committing a crime.

One of them is Sect Master Xiao Sheng, who has been missing for decades, and the other is my master, the late former Sect Master Lin Shou. ”

Hearing Elder Li Mu talk about these two people, Liu Qing's train of thought suddenly opened.

"Huh?"

"Is there a possibility, Sect Master Xiao Sheng, he is not missing at all......

Liu Qing remembered what Zhu San and his wife from the Spirit Spider Clan had said to him in the Spirit Plantation Garden before.

Decades ago, for the sake of the development of the sect, Sect Master Xiao Sheng innovatively carried out the experiment of dual cultivation of the spirit body.

After some effort, the experiment was finally successful.

But overnight, Sect Master Xiao Sheng himself mysteriously disappeared, and all the people who participated in the experiment fell.

Only Zhu Sanyi was able to save his life under the timely rescue of the Great Elder.

At this moment, when Liu Qing heard the name Xiao Sheng again from Elder Li Mu's mouth.

He couldn't help but make a conjecture in his heart.

At that time, could it be that some elders in the elder group secretly attacked him in order to seize the power of Sect Master Xiao Sheng.

Not only did he destroy all his experimental results, but he himself was also directly damaged.

Sect Master Xiao Sheng, who was forced to be helpless, left the Qingling Sect in a hurry to save his life.

And now, after snooping in the shadows for decades, he has finally found an opportunity.

An opportunity to frantically take revenge on the elder group and the sect...... (End of chapter)
