Throughout the whole birthday banquet, Ma Guirong was in a very good mood. Especially when she presented the exquisite and beautiful agate box and introduced the function of "Qingxin Crossing Desire Pearl", the shocked expressions on everyone's faces made her

I felt extremely satisfied.

It can be seen from Ye Xingtian's smile that he is very satisfied with this gift. There is no doubt that Hanshanyuan will stand on the side of the Siqi Sect in the battle for the spiritual mineral veins.

Everyone in Liangyi Hall, Xuanyang Castle and Muling Peak were also very happy. Even if the dispute over interests was not over yet, as long as the mines were kept, even a 1% share would be better than nothing.

This is one of the reasons why Ma Guirong is happy. After making such a big contribution, Chixia Palace will definitely have more say in future resource allocation issues and gain more benefits.

Feeling happy, Ma Guirong drank a lot, and the other members of the Sanqi Sect took turns coming over to toast her. She drank so much that she looked rosy and dark.

After the birthday banquet, Ye Xingtian invited Ma Guirong to his study, intending to ask about the origin of the Tianfo Pearl. Ma Guirong did not intend to tell the story of Yu Ye, but planned to fabricate a story about a disciple who went through all kinds of hardships to find the pearl and protect it.

The bizarre experience of the beads to enhance the value of the beads, and at this time, the warning signal came.

Two disciples of Liangyi Hall were killed, one in the alley and the other in his dormitory. After seeing Wu Bin's body, the disciples of Hanshan Academy immediately went to Room 47, opened the door and saw Ren Xugang's body.

If the doors and windows hadn't been locked from the inside, everyone would have thought that the murderer suddenly broke into the room and escaped immediately after killing Ren Xugang in a sneak attack. Wu Bin chased him out and was killed by the attacker or his companions in the alley.

kill.

But the doors and windows are locked from the inside, which is not surprising. After all, there are many supporting skills that can penetrate walls. But after the timeline is disrupted, it is difficult to judge the murderer's route of action, making it countless times more difficult to find the murderer.

.

Ma Guirong immediately came out of Master Ye's study and rushed to Room 47, where she heard Bao Chengyi's roar from a distance.

Everyone from the three main gates is here. Those who are eligible to participate in the birthday banquet have alibi. Those who did not participate are a few young disciples who are quite talented but not very strong. They are brought here to give them more experience.

It is good for the state of mind. Even if all of these people add up, they are still no match for Wu Bin or Ren Xugang. After all, they are strong men of the same generation as Bao Chengyi. Without strength, Bao Chengyi would not be able to lead them around.

He couldn't even beat him, let alone kill people and escape without leaving any traces. One had his neck broken, and the other had his head pierced by his own flying sword, and neither of them could make a sound. People nearby also

Without hearing the fight, Bao Chengyi asked himself that he couldn't have reached this point. So how strong is the murderer?

The puzzles are one after another, and the mysteries are one after another. The heads and celebrities of the Sanzhengmen all admit that they can kill Ren Xugang and Wu Bin, but they will never let them die silently. A sneak attack can shock the heart and lungs.

They were able to achieve this. However, the two of them had no internal injuries at all, and they were still killed at close range. I am afraid that except for the super strong people in the integration stage, no one in the world can do this.

Bao Chengyi was furious. The person most suspected did not have the strength to complete such an assassination, so he could only accuse the other party of hiring a murderer to kill, and also involved the missing Liu Yanfeng and Lu Li.

Hiring murderers cannot be ruled out, but who can afford to hire a strong man in the integration stage? A cultivator can cultivate to the integration stage, and then he will prepare to survive the tribulation. It is impossible to be hired to do such boring things.

thing.

All kinds of speculations have pushed the murderer's strength up step by step, and there is even the idea of ​​an ascended true immortal descending to earth to kill people.

Ye Xingtian has already locked up the door, and no one is allowed to leave Hanshan Courtyard until the murderer is found. This is actually just a show. If it is really the person killed by the strong man in the integration stage, how can he find it out? Even if he is found out,

Could it be that Hanshanyuan can still prevent the other party from leaving?

Yu Ye, who was "awakened", squeezed into the crowd and watched the development of the situation happily. He was a member of Chixia Palace and had no reason to kill the disciples of Liangyi Hall who were standing on the same front; he was also an ordinary person and had no reason to do so.

It is possible to kill a cultivator like Wu Bin and Ren Xugang, and no one will doubt him anyway.

Who to kill next? Yu Ye yawned and thought about this question. No one cared about him, and no one noticed him. Even Ma Guirong had forgotten his existence at this time.

We must not let Ma Guirong die first. There are only two people coming from Chixia Palace. If Ma Guirong dies, no one knows how the people in Hanshan Academy will arrange for Yu Ye, an ordinary person. They might just let him leave, and then he will

It would be difficult to return to Hanshanyuan, and it would be impossible to kill Qianyulou.

It would be a good idea to kill Qian Yulou first. Yu Ye met this cultivation genius tonight who is said to be a once-in-a-ten thousand-year cultivator. If even the disciples of Hanshan Academy were killed, Ye Xingtian would not be able to let people leave. It is a pity that Qian Yulou

Yulou became a member of the investigation team, and most of the time someone would follow him, so he couldn't find a good time to make a move.

The only one left was Bao Chengyi. He was very angry and restless. It was a good time to kill him. However, after this incident, too many people would focus on Bao Chengyi.

Especially those from the Sanzhengmen must be on guard against him at all times and cannot take action at any good opportunity.

After struggling all night, everyone finally dispersed at dawn. Yu Ye went back early and had a good sleep. No one noticed him anyway, and he became an invisible man.

The next day, the person in charge of the investigation knocked on his door.

Still going through the motions, he asked Yu Ye if he had seen anything. Yu Ye said that he saw Wu Bin in the cafeteria, but not Ren Xugang, so he didn't know what happened.

His words were similar to others. The investigators asked a few random questions and then left. Yu Ye also walked out of the room.

The Hanshan Academy was also very lively on this day. Only the Liangyi Hall disciples were killed. Except for the Sanzhengmen and Siqimen, which would be tense, the other sects didn’t care at all. This was a good time to visit around and keep in touch with each other. Mr. Ye Xingtian

We cannot lock everyone up and prevent them from leaving the house.

Other small sects or casual cultivators huddled in their own rooms to practice. Firstly, they wanted to avoid suspicion so that no one would suspect them. Secondly, Hanshanyuan had a good geographical location and Xueding Mountain was full of spiritual energy, which was very suitable for cultivation.

It is said that there are at least three spiritual mineral veins in Xuedingmu, but no one dares to touch them.

The heads of the Four Qi Sects gathered together and held a day-long meeting, mainly to discuss how to deal with the Sanzhengmen. In their view, the recent disappearances, coupled with the murders last night, were exactly what they needed to do with the Sanzhengmen.

There is proof that Zhengmen has lost patience and started to take the initiative, but no one can find the evidence.

After that, Ye Xingtian also came to Bao Chengyi's room to express his condolences. Hanshanyuan was going to send disciples to the major cultivation sects to explain the situation. The bodies of Wu Bin and Ren Xugang also planned to be sent back to Liangyi Hall first. In order to avoid

The disciples of Liangyi Hall were too excited, and together with the disciples of Siqi Sect, they ran to find trouble for Sanzhengmen. Ye Xingtian asked several heads for autographed letters, and the disciples of Hanshan Academy were responsible for delivering them.

Two days later, Ye Xingtian summoned the heads of various sects to discuss it and decided that if there was no news about the murderer within eight days, the matter would have to be discussed later. We cannot let everyone live here for a year and a half.

.

Bao Chengyi had no objection. Since the murderer had been identified, it didn't matter whether he stayed or not. It would be good to go back early and think about how to take revenge.

After the decision was announced, Hanshanyuan became quiet. Eight days is a very short time for cultivators. When they feel something in their hearts or have made great progress in cultivation, some people can even meditate for seven or eight days without eating or drinking.

The heads of the Four Strange Sects no longer gather together for discussions every day. The main reason is to avoid any bad associations with Hanshan Academy. The Four Strange Sects must not be twisted into one, otherwise it will harm Hanshan Academy.

In terms of status, it has a great influence. If Hanshanyuan is allowed to fall to the side of the three main gates, the gains of the four strange gates will outweigh the losses.

Then, Yu Ye's opportunity came.

Early that morning, while the cultivators were getting up to have breakfast, he took advantage of the crowd and came to Bao Chengyi's door and knocked gently.

"Please come in." Bao Chengyi was putting on his shoes. When he saw the person who came in through the door was Yu Ye, he was stunned for a long time.

He knew Yu Ye. He had asked Yu Ye about Lu Li and also heard from Ma Guirong that Yu Ye had found the golden bead. He had a good impression of this young man who was unable to cultivate.

Seeing Yu Ye standing awkwardly without speaking after entering the door, Bao Chengyi asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

"Um...Master Bao, there's something I don't know whether to talk about or not. It's something related to Uncle Ren and Uncle Martial Arts..." Yu Ye said in a very embarrassed tone.

"What is it about them?" Bao Chengyi frowned. He knew that Yu Ye was not a confused person. If this matter was related to the death of the two of them, Yu Ye would not have kept it secret for so many days, but he must have kept it secret for so many days.

It's a big deal, otherwise Yu Ye wouldn't come to the door.

"On the night when they had the accident, I went to the cafeteria to finish my meal and wandered around, and then... then I happened to walk outside Room 47 and heard the quarrel between the two uncles, the sound was very low.

It seems to be deliberately suppressed." Yu Ye secretly looked at Bao Chengyi, looking very scared.

"Arguing? Are they quarreling or are they quarreling with someone else?" Bao Chengyi frowned.

"It was the two uncles who were arguing. I...I was curious, so I eavesdropped outside the door for a while." Yu Ye's voice became smaller and smaller, obviously because he was afraid that Bao Chengyi would be blamed.

Bao Chengyi frowned and said: "You are worried about the discord between the disciples of Liang Yi Hall and want to show some concern. This is a good thing. I will never blame you. You can continue talking."

"Yes." Yu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard the two uncles talking about the... colorful lotus seeds found in the mine."
