"How... how is it possible?!"
Over the central area of Yunyan Lake, he faced many glances and saw that Sima Chun's name on the standings had indeed disappeared. An old man wearing gray clothes shrank his pupils and his expression changed drastically.
At the same time, a powerful aura swept over him involuntarily, causing some of the weaker people around him to feel palpitations.
"So strong!"
"Who is he? His aura is so terrifying!"
"You don't know him? He is the eldest elder of the Sima family, a seventh-grade family!"
"The eldest elder of the Sima family? Why did he come in person? With his status, he would not normally come to such an occasion, right?"
"It seems that the killing of Sima Chun is difficult for the elder of the Sima family to accept."
"This is normal... With Sima Chun's talent and understanding, he must be the focus of the Sima family's cultivation. It would be difficult for any senior member of the Sima family to accept the loss of such a person."
…
Although many people recognized the old man, few knew about the 'relationship' between the old man and Sima Chun.
This old man in gray clothes is the leader of the Sima family who came here this time. He is also the eldest elder of the Sima family, 'Sima Pingdong'. The existence of a leader other than the leader of the Immortal Sect.
It was also the first time for him to lead a team to join in the excitement of the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm.
And this time, the reason why he personally led the team was because among the Luo Tianshang from his Sima family was his most beloved and valued grandson.
Sima Chun is his grandson.
"Chun'er...Chun'er is dead?!"
Sima Pingdong's face changed, and he murmured as if he was crazy, as if he didn't want to believe that this thing was true.
"Great Elder, my condolences."
Standing next to Sima Pingdong was a middle-aged man who was also the elder of the Sima family, but his status in the Sima family was far inferior to that of Sima Pingdong. He was just an ordinary elder.
"That Sima Chun, the great elder's most beloved grandson, is now dead inside... The great elder, I am afraid that he regrets letting Sima Chun enter the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm."
The elder of the Sima family sighed in his heart. He knew that Sima Chun's position in the heart of the eldest elder of their Sima family could not be replaced by anyone.
But now that Sima Chun is dead, one can imagine how the eldest elder of their Sima family feels.
However, he was also filled with shock.
Sima Chun actually died inside?
You must know that Sima Chun is the most outstanding genius in their Sima family for thousands of years. He is only in his early 200s. Not only has his cultivation reached the peak of Luotian Immortal level, he has even understood the two secrets of the wind law.
Such a being can definitely be ranked among the top ten in terms of strength among all Luotian Immortals who have entered the Nantian Ancient Realm this time.
But he is dead now!
boom!
The void beneath Sima Pingdong's feet shook. In a flash, he was already near the five leaders of the three sects and two tribes.
His eyes first fell on Bi Hai Mingfeng, the third sect leader of Hehuan Immortal Sect, and then he slightly bowed his hands and said, "Master Bi Hai."
"Elder Pingdong."
The Sima family is, after all, a seventh-grade family, so Bihai Mingfeng naturally knows the elder of the Sima family.
"I can probably guess your purpose of coming... However, even the few of us have no way of knowing the situation in the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm."
"So, whoever killed your grandson, even if we want to tell you, we can't do anything about it."
Bihai Mingfeng said.
"I know this."
Sima Pingdong nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "I came here because I wanted to do a favor with Sect Master Bihai... If the people inside come out and I can confirm who killed my grandson, I also ask Sect Master Bihai to kill him." Give me your life."
From the beginning to the end, Sima Pingdong did not look at the leaders of the three sects and two clans and the other two sects and two clans, because these four people could not stop the person he wanted to kill.
Only Bihai Mingfeng has the ability to stop him.
"I'm afraid this won't work."
Bihai Mingfeng shook his head, "It's not that I don't give you face, Elder Pingdong, but it's that we, the three sects and the two clans, cannot be the masters of matters related to the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm... After all, Xuan Xuan also has the authority to open the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm. You Mansion delegated it to us."
"Master Bihai, as one of the top ten inspectors of Xuanyou Mansion, as long as you are willing to give me a favor... I believe that Xuanyou Mansion will not blame you after this incident, considering your identity."
Sima Pingdong is very persistent.
However, Bihai Mingfeng still rejected him, forcing him to retreat.
From the beginning to the end, many people's eyes followed Sima Pingdong, and they also vaguely guessed what Sima Pingdong was looking for Bi Hai Mingfeng.
"Sima Pingdong, the eldest elder of the Sima family, is the grandfather of Sima Chun... Sima Chun is dead, he must be eager to cut the murderer into pieces!"
"He went to the Bihai Sect Master, and he must have wanted to ask the Bihai Sect Master not to stop him from taking revenge."
"But, can he know who killed his grandson Sima Chun?"
"He definitely can't confirm this...but you have to be prepared for everything. What if he can confirm who killed his grandson later? In that case, once the Bihai Sect Master takes action, it is impossible for him to kill that person. , to avenge his grandson."
"So, he wanted to go to Sect Master Bihai first and ask Sect Master Bihai to promise him that he would not stop him from taking revenge... But, looking at his ugly face now, it is obvious that Sect Master Bihai rejected him."
"This is normal. If Master Bihai doesn't reject him, this will set a precedent. Who will dare to kill people randomly in Nantian Ancient Realm in the future?"
…
Obviously, many people have guessed why Sima Pingdong went to find Bihai Mingfeng.
"After Sima Chun's death, it seems that no one in the standings suddenly gained eight points..."
A middle-aged man glanced at the standings and murmured.
"Nonsense! Of course this can't happen!"
But an old man not far away from him said matter-of-factly: "If someone suddenly gets eight more points now, isn't it telling everyone that he killed Sima Chun?"
"In this case, the eight points gained by the person who killed Sima Chun will shuttle through the standings and increase slowly... This is also a method similar to a blindfold to prevent anyone from knowing who killed whom."
said the old man.
"I see... In this way, unless the person who killed Sima Chun personally admitted that he killed Sima Chun, or someone saw him killing Sima Chun, no one would know that he killed Sima Chun!"
"exactly."
"If this were not the case, wouldn't everyone who enters have to be afraid of the rat? In that case, what is the meaning of opening the Nantian Ancient Realm?"
…
Many people who originally didn't know the rules of the standings also knew the rules of the standings at this time.
"Huh? Duan Lingtian's points have increased by two more!"
Hu Linyi, the emperor of Fuqiu Kingdom, who had been staring at the standings, suddenly lit up.
Although, at the same time, several people's points increased by one or two, this increase was not noticeable at all, but he still saw it.
After all, those were the only names he was staring at.
"Five points...Duan Lingtian, you really didn't disappoint me."
A smile appeared on Hu Linyi's face, but when he saw the people at the top of the standings, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "However, the people ranked first have already received eleven points."
"Even the person ranked tenth got seven points."
"Hopefully he can break into the top ten soon."
Hu Linyi's eyes showed hope.
Although he had just paid attention to the death of Sima Chun, the genius of the Sima family, he did not connect Sima Chun's death with Duan Lingtian.
In his view, that Sima Chun was the pinnacle Luo Tianxian who had comprehended the two mysteries of the wind laws, and it was said that the other mysteries of the wind laws that Sima Chun had comprehended was the 'mystery of disease'.
In this case, he did not think that Duan Lingtian had the ability to kill Sima Chun.
In fact, he may even subconsciously believe that:
Duan Lingtian is no match for Sima Chun!
"Great Elder, in fact, even if the Hehuan Immortal Sect agrees to you, it may not be easy for you to find the murderer of your grandson."
Another Sima elder looked at the returning Sima Pingdong and said with a wry smile.
"I will kill whoever is the most suspicious!"
Sima Pingdong's eyes were cold and he said in a deep voice.
Although he had many sons and even more grandchildren, the one he valued most was Sima Chun.
Sima Chun's death made him extremely angry, and he wanted to go directly to the lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm, find out the murderer, and avenge Sima Chun!
Hearing Sima Pingdong's words, Sima's parents smiled bitterly.
This time, the Immortal Luo Tian who entered the Nantian Ancient Realm, the only people he knew who could compare with Sima Chun in strength were a few seventh-level forces.
However, those few people can only compare with Sima Chun in strength, and it is difficult to kill Sima Chun.
Of course, there is another situation:
Sima Chun was killed by a team of people!
If this is the case, it will be even harder to find out who killed Sima Chun...
Duan Lingtian naturally didn't know what was happening outside.
Although his points continued to increase slowly in the following period, he added eight points not long after.
However, no one doubted that he was the one who killed Sima Chun.
First of all, he is not the only one who has gained eight points during this time.
In addition, some people vaguely knew about his strength. Through their mouths, Sima Pingdong could easily remove Duan Lingtian from the list of suspects.
Shortly after Sima Chun's death, Sima Pingdong deliberately stared at the standings, memorized the names of those whose points had increased rapidly, and included them on the list of suspects who killed his grandson Sima Chun.
The lower realm of Nantian Ancient Realm.
"It finally came out..."
In the blink of an eye, another month passed. Duan Lingtian followed the guidance and finally walked out of the seemingly endless forest.
Moreover, he was still traveling at an extremely fast speed.
This also shows how vast the forest is.
