Xue Tianhan and the others had never heard of the inner power of immortals and demons, but they had heard of similar martial arts.
Taiyi Immortal Magic Sword Technique.
Also from the extinct Taiyi Sect, the two will inevitably arouse suspicion.
"The Taiyi Immortal Demonic Sword Technique is the unique skill of Taiyi Sect. Back then, that little guy Ling Xiaowu caused several sects to join forces to pursue him. It was also because of this."
Long Zun explained.
Xue Tianhan nodded, they also knew this section.
But since Old Man Xiejian had been killed, why would his martial arts reappear after a hundred years?
Could it be that there really is a successor?
Huo Yuanji's expression changed slightly. If the murderer really used Heart-Destroying Sword Qi this time, it would be difficult to arrest him.
Among them, no one can crack this evil heart-destroying sword energy.
"Did you say that Old Man Xie Jian was killed by the Taiyi Sect Master just because of the special nature of the immortal demon's internal power?" Ling Miaoyin pondered for a moment and asked.
The sword master nodded.
"Yes, the inner power of the Immortal Demon and the Dragon Lord's Dragon War Internal Power are similar, that is, they both have two completely different internal power fluctuations. These two kinds of internal power fluctuations come from the same source, but they can be regarded as two kinds of internal power. He came to use it, so he became the only nemesis of the Heart-Destroying Sword Qi."
Hearing this, Ling Miaoyin's eyes lit up!
"In that case, can Senior Long Zun or Brother Chen also do it?"
"impossible."
It was Long Zun who spoke.
"When the Dragon War's internal force enters the stage of Gang Qi leaving the body, it has been integrated with the dark dragon energy and transformed into an internal force. It can no longer be used like the inner force of immortals and demons."
The three of them were a little frustrated.
"Isn't there nothing we can do?" Huo Yuanji asked.
"Things in this world are not perfect. If the murderer this time really cultivates the Heart-Destroying Sword Qi, then besides us, there is only one person in the world who can deal with him."
Xue Tianhan nodded, he knew who the Sword Master was talking about.
And coincidentally, that person also had contact with this case.
…
…
Gyeonggi Road is a winding and flat road, extending in all directions from Xuandu, the capital city, and passing through several prefectures and counties along the way. It is the only way for people to come to Xuandu.
In addition to the main road, Gyeonggi-do has several branch roads.
Although these branches are not as flat and open as the main roads, they wind through several towns and become roads for villagers to go to the capital.
At this moment, on one of the divided lanes, a slightly crude carriage was slowly approaching.
Although the carriage was simple, in addition to the coachman, there were four big men with swords accompanying it, which looked a bit strange.
Sitting in the carriage was a woman in her thirties, still charming, wearing a simple set of coarse cloth clothes, with an ordinary wooden box beside her.
They were escorts from a nearby town.
Today, a strange customer came to the escort agency and offered a high price, asking them to deliver the box to a certain place in the capital before dark.
The woman who was the head escort wanted to refuse, but because of the high price paid by the customer, she decided to personally select the best escorts in the escort agency.
They set out from the town in the morning and traveled for nearly two hours.
In front, you can already see Gyeonggi Province.
"Tiemu, it's getting late. Tell the brothers to take a rest and then hit the road again."
The woman wiped her sweat lightly.
It is already early summer, the spring chill has not completely dissipated, and the summer heat is gradually beginning to show its signs.
Therefore, people's spring clothes have not yet been completely taken off.
It was noon again, the hottest time of the day. Everyone was still wearing spring clothes, and the clothes were thicker. They had been walking for such a long time, and they were already sweating profusely.
"I understand, Chief Bodyguard."
The groom responded softly and then slowly stopped the carriage.
The four big men with swords also stopped and wiped the sweat from their faces, whether it was because of heat or fear.
After all, the reward for this escort trip is too generous.
They have been working as escorts for so many years, but they have never taken on such a big business.
So they all got very energetic.
"Chief escort, please come down and have a rest!"
The groom helped the woman in the car out of the car. When the four big men saw the woman, their faces showed respect.
To be able to become the head escort of this escort agency as a female-born person shows that this woman is not simple.
The group of people rested for a while. The female escort looked at the carriage and was lost in thought. She didn't know what she was thinking.
The groom came over. He was the deputy chief escort of this escort agency and the husband of the chief escort.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked.
The head escort replied: "I always feel that there are some problems with this escort trip."
"What's the problem?" The deputy escort glanced at the carriage, puzzled.
The head escort shook his head and said: "You don't know, when I was young, I went to the capital with my father. That address was a large pool. My father and I watched the fireworks there."
The deputy head escort knew that the address she mentioned was the address where the escort was sent this time.
No one would send a dart into the pool...unless he had evil intentions.
The deputy head escort frowned.
The chief escort continued: "And I kept holding those two boxes along the way, and I always felt a faint smell of blood coming from inside."
"The smell of blood?" The deputy head escort was even more surprised.
The female escort nodded and said, "I have an ominous premonition that this escort trip may not be a job to make a fortune, but a job to lose one's life."
The deputy head escort opened his mouth wide.
The chief escort stood up slowly, looked at the four escorts who were not paying attention at all, and walked towards the carriage.
The deputy head escort quickly followed her. He knew what she wanted to do.
And that's what I want to do.
The box was still intact on the carriage.
The female head escort's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, looking at the wooden box, there seemed to be hesitation and hesitation in her eyes.
The deputy head escort looked at her and took the box.
"If you don't dare to do it, then let me do it." He said.
The female head escort looked at him in surprise.
He smiled.
"You are my most beloved person, and I will not let you be harmed in any way. Including your most cherished escort."
The female head escort's face turned slightly red.
Immediately all the look in her eyes disappeared, and she calmly stared at the box.
The seal on the box has been torn open by the assistant escort.
The chief escort glanced at him again, their eyes met, and the deputy escort's hand slowly opened the mysterious wooden box.
As the lid of the box opened, a thick smell of blood suddenly came out.
The beautiful eyes of the chief escort suddenly widened in the next moment, and a look of incredible fear flashed across!
The hands of the deputy head escort were also trembling. If he hadn't been afraid of disturbing the escort who was resting behind him, he might have screamed in surprise.
The next moment the lid slammed shut.
"You're right, this is really a life-threatening job."
The deputy head escort gave a wry smile as if he was distracted. The scene he just saw was so terrifying that he had not recovered yet.
The head escort also looked ugly.
But she is much calmer than her husband.
"We can't send this escort, we must hand it over to the government immediately." In just a moment, she made a response strategy.
The deputy head escort nodded and said, "This is best."
The chief escort said: "Now ride your horse and go straight to the capital, present the contents of the box to the government, and then explain everything to them clearly... This is our only chance."
The deputy head escort nodded seriously: "I understand."
…
…
"It seems that your investigation over there is not going well either."
Chen Yutian looked at the frowning Bai Fan and the four others and said with a hint of ridicule.
Bai Fan looked at Chen Yutian and said with a wry smile: "It seems that Brother Chen's experience is similar to ours. We didn't get any new clues."
Tang Fengling smiled and said: "But it's okay, at least we went to the Wu Manor. We didn't get nothing."
"Oh? What did you find?" Chen Yutian asked curiously.
"Nothing, I just met two strange people when I went to the manor..."
When Tang Fengling said this, she stopped abruptly, leaving Chen Yutian stunned for a while.
"The rest is better to wait until Tianhan and the others arrive."
The girl deliberately let it slip, causing Chen Yutian to rub his nose and smile bitterly.
Could it be that this girl still holds grudges about what happened in Baishui County?
At this moment, Xue Tianhan and the others came to the hall.
Gongsun also came to the hall.
Except for Chen Jing, almost everyone in the Jiulong Mansion was present.
Chen Yutian glanced at everyone's faces one by one and found that several people who came back from the backyard seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Brother Xue, what happened?" he asked.
Xue Tianhan showed a rare wry smile and told everyone what the Four Saints had said about the Evil Sword Old Man and the Heart-Destroying Sword Qi.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this!
What kind of martial arts did the murderer use?
Then in this world, isn’t there almost no one who can rival him?
"Can only Brother Ling's sword skills of immortals and demons be able to restrain him?" Hearing Xue Tianhan's words, Chen Yutian's eyes flashed slightly, and he gradually began to worry about it.
Immediately he looked at Gongsun.
Since returning from the scene, Gongsun has been hiding in the autopsy room, and it is unknown what kind of discovery he has made.
"Brother Xue, from your description, the condition of the deceased is indeed similar, but this is only for the third corpse." He said.
After hearing his words, everyone was stunned.
It only applies to the third corpse, and the implication is...
"After my detailed examination of the first and second corpses, I can confirm that no damage was found on their bodies, only the wounds where their heads were cut off."
really!
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
With the strength of the four masters of Ling Xiaowu and Taiyi Tianfu, if the deceased really had internal injuries, they would definitely be able to see it.
But when they told themselves about it, they never mentioned it.
From that moment on, he knew that perhaps the second corpse really did not have any internal injuries.
At present, Gongsun's words can also prove this point.
"Where are the tattoos? Is there any progress in restoring the tattoos they erased?" Chen Yutian asked.
Gongsun shook his head slightly, "I've been doing autopsies and haven't had time to do that kind of thing."
"Oh." Chen Yutian nodded. This is indeed Gongsun's style. As soon as there is a corpse, he doesn't care about anything.
"Speaking of tattoos, we have made some discoveries here." It was Bai Fan who spoke. He looked at Chen Yutian and said, "When we went to the Wu family manor, we met two people. According to Mrs. Wu, these two people People claim to be Wu Chengtian’s old friends, and they also have tattoos and scars on their bodies in the same position as Wu Chengtian, and they also say that they are witnesses of their relationship with Wu Chengtian when they were young.”
"Is it a witness to the relationship?"
Chen Yutian's eyes flashed slightly, revealing a thoughtful look.
Immediately, his eyes flashed at the same time as Gongsun and Xue Tianhan, and they said in unison: "You mean... the other two deceased people are probably similar to these two, and are Wu Chengtian's old friends?"
Bai Fan nodded slightly and once again admired the three people's tacit understanding and wisdom.
"If this is the case, then the two people you met today may be the next victims."
Gongsun frowned slightly and said solemnly.
Xue Tianhan nodded slightly, he thought so too.
Chen Yutian also thought of this, but he thought more deeply than the other two.
After Wu Chengtian was killed, his old friends were killed one after another, and everyone had tattoo scars on their right arms...
What does this tattoo mean?
Is there a direct connection with the killing of Wu Chengtian and others?
The problem seems to be back to square one.
He smiled bitterly. If the murders of Wu Chengtian and the others were directly related to the tattoos, then why did the murderer kill them?
What is his motive?
While Chen Yutian was thinking about this problem, Li Qing hurried in from outside.
He brought extremely shocking news.
…
…
The severed head of the deceased appeared!
These were the exact words spoken by the government servant who had just been sent from Gyeonggi Prefecture.
He was breathless when he said this and seemed very anxious.
After Chen Yutian inquired in detail, he found out what was going on.
Just now, a man suddenly came to Gyeonggi Prefecture with a wooden box and beat drums to express his grievances.
Xing Enming went to the hall to ask questions as usual, but when the drummer came to the hall, before he could ask questions, he knelt in front of the hall and said that the master is in charge.
Xing Enming inquired in detail and found out that this person was an escort from a nearby town. He received a strange escort this time. Out of caution, he opened the dart box without sending the escort to its destination. After checking it, whoever wanted to open the box saw...
Having said this, the man stopped speaking and gently opened the box in front of him.
The moment the box was opened, Xing Enming was stunned. Not only him, but also the government officials and policemen on both sides, and the chief bookkeeper on one side, all froze on the spot.
Everyone felt a creeping fear!
Because, in that box, there was a human head with a horrified face and blood dripping from it!
Hearing this, Chen Yutian and everyone in the hall were shocked!
Is this head a new dead person? Or is it the heads of the three headless corpses that have appeared?
No one at the scene could be sure about this.
After all, except for Wu Chengtian, the identities of the other two deceased are still unknown. Even if the head has been found, it is difficult to judge whether the head belongs to these two people.
This is another reason why Xing Enming is so anxious to inform Chen Yutian.
And just when Chen Yutian was about to go to Gyeonggi Mansion with everyone from Jiulong Mansion to have a look, a sudden change occurred!
A vast fluctuation of internal energy suddenly spread from a certain direction in the backyard!
Chen Yutian looked back at the center where the energy spread, frowning slightly.
That location seems to be Wu Linling's room...
