The next day.
early morning.
The people of the three major sects all walked out of their houses, cleaned up, gathered their heads, and prepared to set off.
"Senior Sister Jiang."
Jiang Yin, the fairy of Yunqin, was dressed in a long blue dress, holding Yaoqin in her arms. Under the admiring eyes of all her disciples, she stepped out slowly, emerging from the world elegantly, like a fairy descending to earth.
She walked up to Bai Liu, the head of Feiyun Sect, and saluted respectfully:
"Master, the number of people has been counted correctly."
Bai Liu is also no longer the angry and out-of-control look he had last night. He is handsome, elegant and personable:
"Okay, let's go."
At this time, there was a faint commotion in the Lei Jian Sect opposite, and many disciples were talking in low voices.
Bai Liu raised his eyebrows and looked at Zheng Mulin. Zheng Mulin understood, went over to ask, and soon came back to report:
"Master, Elder Huang of Lei Jian Sect is missing."
On the other side, Bao inquired that Zhou Ling'er was also reporting to Tantai Mingyue:
"Headmaster, Elder Huang of Lei Jian Sect has not come back since he went out last night. All his belongings were left in the room."
Tantai Mingyue and Bai Liu came to the Lei Jian Sect's camp, but saw Su Longxiang with an ugly face, angrily yelling at a group of disciples:
"Didn't I ask you to find him? Where is the person?"
Several disciples said tremblingly: "Reporting to the leader, we have searched everywhere, but there is no trace of Elder Huang."
Someone said weakly: "Did Elder Huang have something important to leave beforehand?"
Su Longxiang raised his fist at the man: "Is there anything more important than the Feixian Ceremony?!"
The man trembled, lowered his head and dared not speak. Su Longxiang looked around: "Where is Su Hongling?!"
A big hammer flew from a distance. There was no one on it, but it shook at Sulongxiang. Sulongxiang looked stern, jumped on the hammer, and flew away into the distance.
Tantai Mingyue and Bai Liu looked at each other, rose up with their swords, and followed.
Soon the three leaders came to a valley about a hundred miles away from the camp. They saw Su Hongling standing in an open space at the bottom of the valley, waving to Su Longxiang:
"Come down quickly, Huang Kezhou will die here!"
The three of them landed quickly. Su Hongling pointed at the open space: "There are traces of spiritual energy collisions around here, and there is also a smell. It's Huang Kezhou. This guy is finally dead!"
She said with a smile on her face, seemingly satisfied that Huang Kezhou was dead.
Su Longxiang couldn't help but shouted: "The elder of our sect died tragically in an unknown way, how can you still laugh?"
Su Hongling said disdainfully: "He's just a piece of trash who wants to repay kindness with hatred. If he dies, he'll die!"
"Rebellious girl!"
"Rebellious father! Still want to be beaten?"
"Master Su." Tantai Mingyue stopped the father and daughter who were about to fight, and said to Su Longxiang:
"Elder Huang has already cultivated Nascent Soul. There are not many people in the world who can kill him silently."
Bai Liu continued: "The head of Tantai is right. It is also possible that someone he knew suddenly killed him, catching Elder Huang off guard and leading to his death."
Su Longxiang narrowed his eyes: "Brother Bai, do you mean the murderer is among us?"
Bai Liu said: "Right now, this seems to be the most likely possibility."
Su Longxiang looked at Su Hongling: "Have you noticed the aura of the person who killed Huang Kezhou?"
Su Hongling shook her head: "This man is quite powerful. He has wiped away all the smells. If Huang Kezhou's body odor hadn't been too strong, I wouldn't have been able to smell it."
The three heads discussed for a moment and unanimously decided to go back and investigate the owners of the three major sects first to rule out the possibility that their own people committed the crime before unanimously reporting it to the outside world.
Soon the four of them returned to the camp, and the three masters gathered the disciples together. The Zhenyang Sect was still the leader of the righteous path in the world, so she explained the situation to the three major sect disciples.
"Elder Huang was actually killed?!"
"With such a big noise, why didn't we hear any noise last night?"
"This person can actually kill Elder Huang silently. How terrifying is that?"
"Is it another half-step to becoming a god?"
"Or someone from the Demon Sect?"
"It's impossible. The Qinglian Sect has been destroyed. Where can the remaining Tianyun Sect and Chiyun Mountain have such powerful people?"
While the disciples were discussing, Tantai Mingyue continued: "The murder of Elder Huang is not a trivial matter. In order to rule out that there are evil people within the three major sects, every disciple must report where he was last night, and everyone must have a witness."
Last night, the leaders and elders of the three major sects were punished, and the disciples all lived in one room. Unless two people committed a crime together, if one person made any unusual move, the other person would definitely notice it.
This step is also a preliminary investigation, and someone may reveal something during the investigation.
This is also the purpose of the three masters asking each disciple to tell what happened last night.
Soon every disciple began to report what happened last night. Everyone was practicing or resting in their own rooms, and their companions in the same room testified to each other.
It was Qin Gengyun's turn. He hesitated a little and looked at Jiang Yin and Bai Liu: "I was in charge last night, can I not tell you?"
Everyone looked at him in surprise. Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling'er, who were standing next to him, jumped away subconsciously with shock on their faces.
Oh my god, I forgot that Senior Brother He is from the Qinglian Sect!
Could it be that he killed Elder Huang last night?
Su Longxiang's face darkened, and thunder and lightning surged in his hands: "Why don't you say it?!"
Su Hongling opened his hand with a snap: "What are you doing? He is my old lover!"
"What the hell are you talking about?!" Su Longxiang stared at his precious rebellious girl in shock.
Tantai Mingyue frowned slightly: "He Zhiqiu, why can't you tell where you went last night?"
Qin Gengyun smiled bitterly and said, "If I say it, I'm afraid it will damage others' reputation."
Jiang Yin suddenly said: "Junior Brother He was with me last night!"
Wow!
Wow? !
As soon as these words came out, everyone opened their mouths and looked at Jiang Yin blankly.
"Fairy Yunqin was with He Zhiqiu last night?"
"How could Fairy Jiang have a tryst with a man if she doesn't like the fireworks of the world?"
"That's not right, why would you know that Qiu is not Fairy Su's old lover?"
"That's not right. Doesn't He Zhiqiu already have a Taoist partner?"
"Oh my god, Fairy Jiang is actually with a married woman."
Just when everyone was shocked, Bai Liu said with a stern face: "Last night I was teaching Jiang Yin Kung Fu, and I happened to meet this He Zhiqiu."
Everyone suddenly realized, and many male disciples breathed a sigh of relief. Bai Liu looked at Jiang Yin with a warning in his eyes.
Jiang Yin lowered his head, but didn't know what he was thinking.
In this way, Qin Gengyun was no longer suspected. Su Longxiang frowned and said:
"Wait a minute, don't you still have a Taoist companion?"
Qin Gengyun looked at Ruomei beside him and said with a smile: "Master Su, my wife went to bed very early last night. I went out to see Fairy Jiang and then returned to the room. My wife was always there."
Xu Zhenqian, the elder of Lei Jian Sect, suddenly said: "Friend Daoist He, this is wrong. During the time you left, your wife might have secretly gone out to kill people."
Qin Gengyun said: "Elder Xu, my wife went to bed very early last night, not to mention that she has just entered Nascent Soul, how can she be Elder Huang's opponent?"
Xu Zhenqian said: "Young Taoist He's remarks are hard to prove for your wife."
Su Longxiang said to Tantai Mingyue: "Master Tantai, this is your disciple. Should you judge him or me?"
Qiu Zhihe's eyes became colder, and the aura on his body began to become gloomy.
"After Junior Brother He went out last night, Junior Sister Ruo was with me."
At this time, an elegant and dignified voice sounded.
