When Qing Yi Ke got the news and came over, it was almost dawn. When he saw the bodies of Zhu Shaoming and Xiao An, he couldn't help but shake.
The same way of death, the same brain being eaten. Perhaps because he failed to escape in a panic, Zhu Shaoming had an extra pustule on his head, which easily made things a little different.
"Have the people in the woods come back?"
"They're all back."
"No one got into trouble, right?"
"……No."
The disciples of the Xuanmu Sect were panic-stricken at this time. They all looked at each other in shock and doubt. The people who died this time were not the ordinary people in Qingmu Town, but the immortal cultivators, who were members of their Xuanmu Sect. They looked at the guests in Qingyi. When they arrived, they all hesitated to speak, especially the two people who followed Qingyi Ke to stop the Yinnu Cult elder yesterday.
The guest in Qingyi had a gloomy face and said nothing. Not long after, the Xuanmu Sect members who came back from the woods stood silently beside them. They had already heard about what happened on the way here.
Among the two people who died, there was one person they were familiar with, that is, their young sect leader Zhu Shaoming. Although the identity of the young sect leader has not been finalized yet, it was Qing Yi Ke's choice after all. The key is that Zhu Shaoming never pretends to be pretentious when dealing with others. Very popular among fellow students.
"Master." The two people who went to the inn with Qingyi Guest yesterday hesitated. After a while, one person stood up and said, "Could it be..."
He hesitated to speak, but Qingyi Ke understood what he meant, and also knew that many disciples in Xuanmu Sect had this meaning.
There have been more than a dozen murders so far. Xuanmu Sect disciples have been active in Qingmu Town for a long time. Although they cannot catch the murderer, in order not to cause panic in the town, they will dispose of the corpses as soon as possible. When the news came out, it still caused quite a stir, and there were fewer and fewer residents.
However, the person who died before was not an immortal cultivator, let alone a member of the Xuanmu Sect. It happened that they found the elder of the Yinnu Sect through clues, and then a fellow sect was killed. It was too much of a coincidence to say it was a coincidence.
Zhu Shaoming's cultivation is not outstanding among the younger generation of Xuanmu Sect, but he is still young after all, and because he is from the same sect, it is easy for people to think of him. When he thinks that he may die in such a way, he can't calm down. To right.
But the person they suspected was, after all, the elder of the Yinnu Sect. That sect full of women was not someone they could provoke from the Xuanmu Sect, so they could only appeal to the sect leader, and this kind of thing could only be done by the sect. The Lord makes the decision.
The guest in Qingyi remained silent.
Seeing this, another person gently reminded: "Master, they will leave early this morning."
It's almost dawn now.
Looking across the faces of the disciples one by one, the man in green shouted in a deep voice: "Let's go!"
…
…
It was completely light.
When the woman came out of the inn with Yang Chan, the residents of the town had been evacuated. The streets outside the inn were completely occupied by Xuanmumen disciples, who were all staring at her as if they were on the road. The enemy is a big enemy, and Qing Yi Ke is standing in front of them.
Yang Chan was stunned by this scene, and then went to look for Gu Chen. She found that Gu Chen had not left, but was still sitting in the corner, just looking at her with some worry. She quickly smiled back and said He was fine, but Gu Chen was still worried. He was worried about what was going to happen.
The woman's eyes became cold, and even those cultivators felt their bodies and minds go cold. They could only hear her cold voice, but there were no unnecessary words.
"Step aside."
It was only at this moment that Qing Yi Ke realized how terrifying this elder of the Yin Nu Cult was. His cultivation was completely superior to his. He immediately secretly regretted it, but there were some things he had to do, even if he had known the result earlier.
The guest in Tsing Yi did not get out of the way, but waved, and someone brought the three corpses over. Yang Chan pointed at one of the corpses and shouted, her face turned pale. She recognized the old man in Tsing Yi, and then remembered the guest in Tsing Yi yesterday. Those words he said made him feel sick.
Gu Chen was also confused when he saw Old Man Xu's body, because when he left the night before yesterday, although Old Man Xu was dead, the body was still intact, unlike now that there was a hole in the brain and it was empty inside.
The other two corpses lined up next to Old Man Xu also met the same fate as him, but their clothes were those of Xuanmumen disciples. Gu Chen vaguely knew what Qing Yi Ke wanted to do.
When the woman saw this, she naturally understood, but it didn't make her face look any better. She said in a deep voice: "I should have said it yesterday, it was not me."
She killed Old Man Xu, and she admitted it, but what happened after death had nothing to do with her. In her opinion, killing was a simple thing, so she would do it, and she wanted to do something like taking people's brains. Simple, just too troublesome. As an elder of the Yinnu Sect, there is no need to explain to the people of Xuanmu Sect, and naturally there is no need to lie.
Qingyi Ke also knew that she was not lying, and he did not want to offend the Yinnu Cult, but there were some things he had to deal with. As the leader of the Xuanmu Sect, he could not only consider himself when considering things. He was not the only one in a sect. He could believe what the woman said, but everything required evidence, and a few simple words could not be regarded as evidence.
He can now ask his disciples to step aside and let the master and disciple leave, but in this way, how will the disciples view him and the sect in the future?
If the people in a sect are not united, it will only make him, the sect leader, miserable. If a sect cannot protect its disciples, it cannot even seek justice for its disciples. How can this sect continue to survive?
So when he got here and saw the woman, the guest in Tsing Yi regretted it, but he regretted it. He opened his bow without an arrow to turn back, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Please, elder, stay for a while longer to help us find out the truth. "
"The truth?" The woman was completely impatient, her murderous intent was rising, and there was a stern domineering air in her body. "I didn't kill the person, why should I stay to assist you in your investigation?"
Qingyi Ke said hurriedly: "I also believe that people are not..."
"Even if I am the one who killed the person." The woman coldly interrupted Qing Yi Ke's words again, "If I kill him, I will kill him. What can you do to me?"
The whole street suddenly became audible.
Gu Chen nodded secretly, thinking that if a Kunlun disciple killed someone, he would still say the same thing. Of course, Kunlun disciples would not kill people indiscriminately.
After the silence, there was the sound of heavier and heavier breathing. These Xuanmumen disciples clenched their fists, with angry faces, staring at the woman for a long time, and suddenly they all turned their attention to the guest in Qingyi, because he had also been silent for a long time.
Whether to advance or retreat, Qingyi Ke knew that he had to make a decision, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head, thinking how great it would be if he were alone, and he could advance or retreat at this time.
People who obey the decision will never know the inner suffering and pressure of the person who made the decision. Although everyone present knows the difference between Yinnu Cult and Xuanmumen, it seems that as long as the person who makes the decision is not them, then the real Those who offended the Yinnu Cult elders were not the same as them.
"In that case, elder, it's offending."
Qing Yi Ke finally made a decision.
The woman suddenly laughed, without any anger at all. Everyone present was stunned for a while, but the woman turned to Yang Chan and said: "When you step into the path of cultivating immortality, you are not on the road of mortal world. As I said, I will wait for you to come back in the future." Take a look at your current life, and you will feel lucky, because you will live a completely different life."
Yang Chan was dumbfounded, but did not listen to what the woman said. She just felt that this frosty woman was so beautiful and charming when she smiled.
Gu Chen's heart was also filled with worry. He quickly gathered his thoughts, suppressed the impatience that surged from within, and secretly said vigilantly: "Charm!!"
