When Liang Jiunan opened his eyes, he found that he was already in the Demon-Conquering Division's bedroom.
The sunlight from the window was a bit dazzling, obviously it had been a long night.
"Uh..." Liang Jiunan stood up, but his head hurt as if it had been penetrated by a chisel. The feeling of dizziness and nausea made Liang Jiunan instantly recall the painful memories of his previous life.
"Oh, it's the same as when I was a social worker in my previous life... I had migraines after working too much overtime!"
"Tsk, there are no painkillers in this era, I'm going to die!"
While Wu Zi was mumbling, the door was gently pushed open.
When Yu Langya saw Liang Jiunan getting up, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly placed the meal on the table:
"God bless you, you're fine!"
"The boss was so worried that he didn't sleep all night, and he was afraid of disturbing you, so he was sitting alone in the lobby!"
With that said, Yu Langya walked quickly to Liang Jiunan, looked left and right, and asked with concern:
"How are the injuries on your body?"
"The doctor said that the meridians may be injured where the orb penetrates!"
Liang Jiunan twisted his neck, rolled his eyes, and said with a playful smile:
"Actually...it's not bad."
"But, Sister Langya, if I am shirtless and unclothed, won't you avoid it?"
Yu Langya was stunned for a moment, then slapped Liang Jiunan on the back of the head with a hint of anger.
Liang Jiunan, who was photographed with stars in his eyes, grimaced in pain.
Come on!
Now not only does the inside of my head hurt, but the outside of my head also hurts!
"Okay, seeing as you are still thinking and talking, there shouldn't be anything serious wrong!" Yu Langya pointed at the biluo and decoction brought to him angrily: "Eat quickly, the boss is still waiting for a reply!"
Liang Jiunan scratched his head, put on some clothes and sat across from Yulangya:
"I haven't finished what I just said. Flesh injuries are fine. If there are internal injuries, the elixir given by the Governor last night will be fine."
"My mind is still groggy and I feel very uncomfortable."
A trace of worry flashed in Yu Langya's eyes: "The boss said that if you are in this situation, your soul may be damaged."
Liang Jiunan nodded.
He is no exception to this.
Speaking of which, he himself underestimated the enemy this time.
I thought that if I had a chance encounter and obtained the "Tai Sui Demon Conquering Picture", I would be able to use the spiritualism in it to wreak havoc in other people's consciousness.
But he just forgot that some people would play tricks on their own souls and the souls of others.
Although "Wenqu Spiritualism" is a hundred times more mysterious than ordinary methods of summoning spirits, his ninth-grade combat power is a fatal flaw.
Thinking of this, Liang Jiunan became a little anxious, hurriedly put on his clothes, bit Biro and was about to go to the lobby.
"Oh, please slow down a little." Yu Langya couldn't help but said, "It won't take more than an hour and a half!"
Liang Jiunan waved his hand: "There are indeed some important things that need to be reported quickly!"
…
Li Shangjing, who had not slept all night, had bloodshot eyes.
But someone who was enduring the same hardship as him was Governor Chen.
They saw it when Liang Jiu's secret technique for summoning souls was reversed.
What frightened the two seventh-grade warriors was that they could manipulate the soul of an ordinary person, Pei, and give him a string of Xuan-grade magic weapons to enhance his strength.
What was involved behind this matter was probably not just the female-washing witchcraft that they originally expected.
Even...not just the lives of hundreds of babies!
At this time, with the sound of hurried footsteps, Liang Jiunan quickly came to the hall, raised his hands and saluted: "I'll see you, the Governor, and see the Chief."
Governor Chen nodded:
"The Nine Difficulties are all our own, so there is no need to be so polite."
"You are still injured, please sit down and talk."
Liang Jiunan was not polite. After sitting down, he told everything he had seen in Pei's memory.
"Oh? Yang family?" Li Shangjing seemed to have thought of something: "Pei Ji's side rooms...it seems that Yang family is not seen?"
Governor Chen twitched his beard and frowned:
"I briefly asked yesterday that Mrs. Yang is the second wife. She said she happened to go back to her parents' home to visit relatives."
"In that case... we can start with the items in Yang's room to see if there are any clues."
"After all, if Mr. Pei really believed the words of the sorcerer who appeared out of nowhere, there would be no reason not to retaliate."
"And what Ms. Pei said was that she was trying to protect those children."
"I'm afraid this second lady only knows more about the reason."
Liang Jiunan was a little confused:
"Although my subordinate is injured, he can still hold on."
"Why don't you let me explore Pei Sima's soul?"
However, when he finished speaking, Liang Jiunan found that everyone present smiled bitterly.
"Did I... say something wrong?" Liang Jiuna scratched his head and asked.
"Nine difficulties." Yu Langya whispered: "During the inspection yesterday, the governor and the chief discovered that... Pei Sima... his soul had dispersed. Pei's death-by-death move directly caused Pei Sima to disappear into ashes!"
Liang Jiunan's pupils shrank, a little in disbelief.
What kind of method, not only cutting people into pieces, but also leaving their souls scattered!
On the side, Li Shangjing changed the topic: "Nine Difficulties, are there any other clues?"
Liang Jiunan thought about it carefully and suddenly said:
"Speaking of which, the person who caused me to suffer backlash once said two things before he appeared."
"It's called...'Praise the eternal sky, look back and know the other side.'"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shangjing stood up with a "chun" sound, his expression horrified.
Even Governor Chen looked solemn: "Nine Difficulties, are you sure?"
Liang Jiunan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I'm sure, I'm sure. Those are the two sentences!"
On the side, Yu Langya saw something was wrong in the atmosphere and couldn't help but ask: "Two adults, may I ask... what is the purpose of these two sentences?"
Li Shangjing murmured: "How could this matter... involve Changshengtian?"
Governor Chen seemed to see more:
"The question now is not why Changshengtian is in Yangzhou City."
"But, is Changshengtian just using Pei Ji? Or... is it involved with the Pei family!"
The more Liang Jiunan listened, the more confused he became: "Sir, Governor, what exactly is this Immortal Heaven? I have never heard of you talking about it."
Li Shangjing spoke solemnly: "Before His Majesty ascended the throne, there was a fraternal feud at Xuanwu Gate. Do you know about it?"
Liang Jiunan's heart skipped a beat.
Xuanwu Gate Change?
Of course he knows!
But Li Shangjing continued:
"Back then, the power under His Majesty's command was not weaker than that of the deposed prince Li Jiancheng."
"Although the two sides fought fiercely at the beginning, it was just a battle for imperial power."
"Neither of the two brothers wanted to kill the other!"
"But at this time, Qi King Li Yuanji's help was so ruthless that he forced the deposed prince Li Jiancheng and the current His Majesty to face each other with swords at Xuanwu Gate."
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, he sent people to investigate the matter. It turned out that Li Yuanji had been controlled by a kind of evil spell early on."
"Then I followed the clues and found a secret organization like Changshengtian!"
On the side, Governor Chen also said solemnly:
"This Immortal Heaven is very mysterious. I heard... people in the organization are people who will do whatever it takes to seek immortality!"
"No one knows how far they can go in order to gain immortality."
"Later, the Soul-Suppressing Division and the bad guys teamed up to encircle and suppress Changshengtian, so that the opponent's vitality was severely damaged and he fled to the Western Regions."
“After so many years of peace, it’s so chilling to hear these words again.”
Li Shangjing and Governor Chen looked at each other, seemingly hesitant to speak.
Liang Jiunan saw that the two of them were in trouble and immediately stood up:
"Lord Governor, Chief of Staff. My subordinates and Sister Langya, it is better to start with the Pei family first."
"Since there is still a Yang family that is suspected, let's go to the Pei Mansion to have a look."
After saying that, after getting the consent of the two of them, Liang Jiunan pulled the confused Yu Langya out of the lobby.
"No, that's right. What are we doing here?" Yu Langya couldn't help but ask.
Liang Jiunan smiled helplessly:
"Sister Langya, Changshengtian is involved in the Xuanwu Sect's affairs back then, and it is a knot in His Majesty's heart. Do you think there is any benefit for the two of us to know about this kind of thing?"
"It's better to go to Pei's house to see the situation."
"If Changshengtian is really causing trouble, then it's not us who should have a headache, but the governor!"
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at Pei's mansion, which was blocked by the Demon Subduing Division.
