Because yesterday's news of Chen Xuan's ascension to the Tianwu world caused a huge sensation, not many people discussed the murder of more than a dozen martial arts geniuses in the Yishan restricted area.
Of course, the Huangyundi newspaper still made some space for reporting on this matter.
After the Xia family finished discussing the news related to the Ascended Ones, the topic turned to the news of a major murder in the Yishan restricted area.
Everyone was very lucky that Xia Guo and Xia He met Chen Xuan as soon as they entered the restricted area yesterday, and agreed to Chen Xuan's suggestion to come out as soon as possible, otherwise they would probably die at the hands of that murderer.
Xia Wenping specially expressed his gratitude to Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan just responded with a smile, and at the same time thought to himself, what would be the reaction of these Xia family members if they knew that he was not only the ascended person yesterday, but also the mysterious murderer in the restricted area of Yishan?
The Huangyundi newspaper's report on the murder in the restricted area of Yishan finally mentioned that the Wuying Department's branch in Kunshi City had sent people to Yishan to investigate.
Although Chen Xuan believed that it was basically impossible for the Wuying Department to investigate the real murderer, if the Wuying Department mastered some magical investigation methods and really found any clues in the valley, Chen Xuan felt that he would not necessarily stay in the Xia family in Kunshi City.
Safety.
After all, he came out of the Yishan restricted area. When the time comes, the Wuying Department will conduct door-to-door checks in Kunshi City, and sooner or later they will find him, an unidentified casual cultivator.
The more Chen Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that this matter should not be taken lightly. For a moment, he wanted to leave Kunshi City immediately and go directly to Imperial City Academy, or find a way to go up to the main star to find Gu Chenxiao.
However, the Huangyun Principality has a powerful official organization like the Wuyingbu. As a visitor from another world, there is no guarantee that his identity will not be suspected when he walks around the territory.
At this point, Chen Xuan can only choose to stay in Kunshi City for the time being, waiting for the investigation results of the Wuying Department to come out, and then make a decision based on the situation.
Because Xia Wenping couldn't figure out the thoughts of Shen Yucheng, the eldest son of the city lord's palace, he ordered the Xia family not to go out easily in the near future, and to stay in the family and practice well, not to mention Xia He and Xia Guo sneaking into the Yishan restricted area and meeting Chen
Xuan's matter must be told, unless the Wuying Department comes to investigate.
The atmosphere in the entire Kunshi City became tense, and there were obviously fewer pedestrians on the streets in the past few days.
Chen Xuan knew that Xia Wenping wanted to protect him, but the Xia family was just a nest of ants to the city lord's palace, let alone facing a national power like the Wuying Department.
Despite this, Chen Xuan still stayed in his room calmly and entered the second floor of the Eight-Bud Pagoda every day to practice diligently.
About two days later, Xia Wenping bought the latest Huangyundi newspaper, which published the investigation results of the murder case in the Yishan restricted area.
Wu Yingbu said that no major clues have been found yet, but the suspected murderer may have entered Kunshi City.
The City Lord's Office and the Wuying Branch jointly issued an announcement to close the city for three days to conduct a thorough investigation.
After reading this news, Chen Xuan and Xia Wenping looked at each other and saw a complicated look in the eyes of the old patriarch.
"Grandpa, Chen Xuan was lost in the restricted area of Yishan Mountain. Will he be taken to the Ministry of Military Affairs for interrogation?"
Xia Guo couldn't help but worry about Chen Xuan.
Xia Wenping forced a smile and replied: "Chen Xuan is just a sixth-level casual cultivator in the Yuan Shaping Realm. How could Wu Ying be suspicious of him?"
What really worried Xia Wenping was that if the three major martial arts families knew that Chen Xuan was in the Yishan restricted area that day and that he had sneaked in with Xia Guo and Xia He, their Xia family would definitely be angered.
By then, I'm afraid Shen Yucheng won't be able to save the Xia family.
As for whether Chen Xuan is related to the murderer, Xia Wenping has never thought about this issue.
At this time, Xia He said with an angry look: "If the Wuying Department wants to take away Chen Xuan, I will definitely stop them! If my sister and I hadn't met Chen Xuan that day, we would probably have met the murderer, but the Trial Department of the Wuying Department
Chen Xuan will definitely be arrested indiscriminately, those people are the most disgusting!"
"Uh, Xia He, isn't your ideal to join the Wuying Department and become a hero?
Why do you think the martial arts heroes in the martial arts department are disgusting?"
Chen Xuan was a little confused.
Xia He shook his head: "The Judgment Department is different from the Combat Department. They are not responsible for dealing with major disasters and do not dare to face those powerful beasts. They only engage in cruel methods such as examination and torture. They are not worthy of being called heroes at all!"
"Hey, Xia He, we cannot afford to offend any department in the Wuying Department. If they really come to question you, you must not act out of emotion."
Xia Wenping was afraid that this passionate grandson would offend the adults in the Trial Department of the Wuying Department.
Seeing that Xia Wenping was worried, Chen Xuan immediately said calmly: "Master Xia, don't worry. When the time comes for people from the Wuying Department to come, it will be fine for me to negotiate with them alone. The Xia family will definitely not be implicated."
"How can this work?
Chen Xuan, you are now a member of our Xia family, not to mention you have nothing to do with the Yishan murder case. As the head of the Xia family, I will definitely help you explain clearly."
Xia Wenping said it eloquently.
After hearing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile inwardly. It would be great if he could explain it clearly.
But so far, Chen Xuan is relatively calm. The worst he can do is leave Kunshi City early.
He was afraid that the Xia family would suffer because of him, so Chen Xuan decided to stay.
At this moment, a young man from the Xia family hurried in from outside with a worried look on his face: "Master, it's bad, people from the Judgment Department of the Wuying Department have investigated our Xia family!"
"Don't panic, everyone goes out to greet you."
As Xia Wenping spoke, he grabbed the corner of his clothes with his right hand without anyone noticing, then tried to look calm and led the Xia family members towards the door.
Chen Xuan also followed suit. Before he could walk out of the door, he saw several martial arts cultivators wearing black tunics walking in. The first one was a minor cultivator in the Creation Realm, and the others were beginners in the Creation Realm.
"No one is allowed to move! I am Cao Ji, deputy director of the Trial Department of the Kunshi City Branch of the Wuying Department. Today I am here to investigate matters related to the Yishan murder case. Who is Xia Wenping, the head of the Xia family?"
The middle-aged martial arts cultivator with a small level of cultivation in the Creation Realm looked at the entire Xia family with cold eyes.
"I am the head of the Xia family."
Xia Wenping took a step forward and answered respectfully.
Cao Ji's attitude towards this kind of little family leader who doesn't even have the realm of creation is certainly not much better: "Xia Wenping, regarding the Yishan murder case, does anyone in your Xia family know any relevant clues?
If there are any clues about the suspect, report it immediately and do not hide it, otherwise everyone in your Xia family will be regarded as accomplices by the Wuying Department!"
Hearing these words, every Xia family member's heart trembled violently. Only Xia He secretly glared at Cao Ji.
Xia Wenping knew that his next answer would determine the fate of the Xia family.
If it is revealed that Chen Xuan got lost in the Yishan restricted area, Xia Guo and Xia He sneaking into the Yishan restricted area will be exposed, and the entire Xia family will be doomed.
