"..." Zhao Yuexi naturally knows this truth, but now she is afraid that she will also be targeted.
Yang Ling was killed silently. If she was targeted, she would not end well.
So...she just wanted to take a gamble.
I bet Three Faces won't leave the city because of these people.
"Then we can pretend to leave, turning from light to dark, and wait for response." Gong Huan said harshly.
If the murderer is not caught, he will never forgive himself in this life.
"From now on, you and I can't be separated for a step!"
"I understand..." Zhao Yuexi was silent for a moment and could only nod.
The three of them were about to get up and leave, when beautiful women in pink dresses quickly stepped out of the crowd of people watching.
These women were dressed strangely, with long skirts on their lower bodies and white tight-fitting vests on their upper bodies that looked like fancy clothes.
All of them wore slender riding boots and exquisite makeup, looking like rich ladies who had just returned from an outing.
The girl at the head has a beautiful appearance and a lively temperament. It is obvious that her appearance and figure are no longer that of a young girl, but deep in the eyes of this beautiful woman, one can feel a rare liveliness and innocence.
The woman had a small bamboo ring wrapped around her hand, and the bamboo ring kept spinning around her fingertips, round and round.
"I, Wan Fei, a palace magistrate, have met two real people from the Xuanmiao Sect."
With a snap, the bamboo ring in her hand stopped.
"Two real people, why are you in such a hurry to leave the city? Three Faces is so rampant, how about we work together to investigate the case? We, Wan Fei Palace and Xuan Miao Sect have always been close neighbors, have many contacts, and have a good relationship. If we join forces, maybe we can catch them
The possibility of the murderer is higher." Ling Xian'er said in a brisk tone.
"Feel sorry...."
In fact, originally such a proposal was quite appropriate.
But now, Xuanmiao Sect has been abandoned by the coalition forces, and Wanfei Palace is also among the coalition forces. The relationship between the two parties has fallen to an extremely low level.
More importantly, Gong Huan also found a faint trace of the power of Master Wanfei on Yang Ling's body.
Wan Fei Gong majors in the Tai Sui Sutra. It has strong strength and has the effect of beautifying the skin and delaying aging. The strength has quite obvious characteristics.
Although the murderer was deeply hidden, Gong Huan still found a trace and recognized what the murderer used. It was Wan Fei Gong Tai Sui Sutra's power.
"My Xuanmiao Sect's coordinator will be here soon, so I don't need to worry senior sister." Gong Huan suppressed the sadness in his heart and said with cupped fists.
"Forget it..." Ling Xian'er originally wanted to leave the body behind to facilitate the investigation of clues. Looking at the emotions of the two real men of Xuanmiao Sect, it was obviously not suitable to bring up this statement.
She also pressed down and waved people to get out of the way.
Gong Huan took the corpse, together with Zhao Yuexi and Han Xiangqi, and quickly left the crowd and rushed towards the city gate.
Not long after, Gong Huan's waist suddenly trembled, and there was a message from a messenger.
His expression remained motionless, but he was overjoyed in his heart. He quickly took out the message bug, turned around, and flew towards the direction where the message bug hit.
These insects come in pairs. As long as one of them is released, the other one will fly at full speed to where the other one is.
So the person who came here obviously brought over another message bug that he left behind in the sect.
Not only Gong Huanyi was overjoyed, but Zhao Yuexi was also overjoyed when he saw the message bug flying up and pointing.
The two of them took the corpse and Han Xiangqi, who didn't know what was going on, and quickly rushed in the direction indicated by the Xunzhong.
Not long after.
In a remote alley, Gong Huan landed lightly and looked into the depths of the alley.
Two people were standing there.
One of the men had a strong build, but his ordinary Taoist robe was bulging to the point of bursting. He had long black hair hanging down, a strong back and a strong waist, and his eyes were full of dazzling eyes.
The other person is a woman. Her whole body is not strong, and she does not even have the aura of true strength that is unique to real people. She should be just a follower or a strongman of the former.
"This senior brother...? Is it just the two of you?" Gong Huan hesitated slightly.
He was full of joy and was quickly stunned by the situation in front of him.
"That's right, I, Wei He, just left the inner mountains. I came here specifically to solve the murder case here. Did someone die just now?"
Wei He didn't bother to explain and asked directly.
"Yes! It's my Taoist companion Yang Ling, who was also killed by that thief just now!..." Gong Huan's eyes were red and he replied in a deep voice.
Wei He also saw the corpse he was holding in his hands. The corpse was slowly turning into black smoke, but the speed was a bit slow.
This is a real person. After a real person dies, he will slowly sink into reality, which ordinary people cannot perceive.
In a sense, real people are no longer the same species as ordinary people.
"Are there any clues?" Wei He asked.
"Not found...but the traces on the body are related to the Tai Sui Sutra in Wanfei Palace..." Gong Huan replied in a deep voice.
He felt a little hopeful. The Wei He in front of him seemed to be the person sent by the sect to take care of them.
Facing the corpse of a real person, Wei He's face remained calm, and his words still contained some strong self-confidence.
It can be seen that this person is extremely confident in his own strength.
Looking at it this way, the Wei He in front of them was definitely not someone sent by the sect to take them back, but someone who might actually come to investigate and solve the case.
"Can I see the body?" Wei He asked.
His friend Zhongyue Xiaodie is from Wanfeigong. He once asked about the content of the Taisui Sutra, so he has some understanding of Wanfeigong's basic major exercises.
Gong Huan was silent for a moment. He put down the body and took off the clothes.
Wei He stepped forward and looked at the body carefully.
The injuries to the body were mainly on the neck, and he was decapitated to death with a knife.
On the edge of the wound, there are traces of the conflict between the forces. It can be judged that Yang Ling was not killed unprepared.
Instead, after exerting all his strength, he was killed abruptly in front of his face.
The murderer's strength is at least above the Transformation Realm.
Because Yang Ling is the real person in Huajing.
Wei He checked briefly and found that there were indeed traces of the power of Tai Sui Sutra.
"You are right, there are indeed traces of Wanfei Palace's power."
"So Brother Wei, what should we do now?" Zhao Yuexi asked from the side.
"Let's go." Wei He shook his head.
"??" Several people looked at him with some confusion, not knowing what he meant.
"Where to go?" Gong Huan asked doubtfully.
"Go and arrest people." Wei He was puzzled, "Isn't it the trace of Wan Fei Gong's power? Then go and arrest all their people first, isn't it over?"
"......!!?" X4.
The four of them were stunned, completely expecting Wei He to say that.
"But...but..." Gong Huan wanted to say something else. No matter how impulsive he was, he knew that a power like Wanfei Palace could not be easily provoked.
"But what? You lead the way."
Wei He didn't bother to pay attention, glanced at it, grabbed Han Xiangqi, jumped up, and quickly rushed into the city.

the other side.
Ling Xianer from Wanfei Palace was standing by the well, checking the remaining traces around her.
Trying to find the clues left by the murderer.
But it's a pity that the traces here are too messy. People come and go. Even if there are traces, they have long been covered by the traces of countless hearts.
There is no way to find out the trace.
"What a pity..." She sighed and looked up at the sky.
The sun was in the sky and it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. It was the hottest time of the day.
"We can't find any clues here. Let's go back first and wait for the next action." Ling Xian'er frowned and said.
The real person of Xuanmiao Sect is dead. This time things have become a big deal, and Xuanmiao Sect will never let it go.
The names of many real people in Xuanmiao Sect's inner mountain flashed through Xian'er's mind, and he listed some real people who liked to act outside, and guessed who might be here this time.
She looked around at the crowd, and saw that there were many people watching, many of whom were martial arts practitioners and more courageous.
The rest of the ordinary people walked in a hurry, for fear of getting into trouble and causing disaster.
Three faces... actually have the strength to attack and kill real people.
It seems that the plan to hunt him down has to be reworked.
"Sister, the people from Xuanmiao Sect are back again." Suddenly a junior sister whispered beside her.
"Huh?" Ling Xian'er looked back towards the city gate.
What made her frown was that she saw no one in that direction.
"Where are the people from the Xuanmiao Sect you mentioned?" Xian'er turned her head in confusion.
call.
She suddenly froze, and less than two meters away from her, a figure suddenly appeared.
It was a man, an extremely strong and burly man.
He has a plain face, fair skin, and calm eyes. He looks like an ordinary good-tempered martial arts instructor.
But with such an ordinary man standing in front of him, Xian'er felt as if his heart had been grabbed and he couldn't move.
"My name is Wei He." Wei He smiled peacefully at her.
Now, after practicing hard for many years, he is no longer as irritable as before.
The boring ascetic practice allowed him to endure loneliness, temper himself, and his mind became calmer.
"Senior Brother Wei..."
Snap.
Xian'er's body trembled, and she suddenly felt a big hand on her right shoulder.
The huge invisible violence was so powerful that it enveloped her instantly like a wave.
Her powerful body-protecting power had just stirred up a little ripple before it was forcibly suppressed.
She instinctively raised her hands to resist, but her body was numb and unable to move.
A finger was gently pressing the skin on her shoulder, sending out a slight tingling force.
These powers were like a spider web, defeating her own power in a blink of an eye and completely controlling her whole body.
"Senior Brother Wei...what do you mean!!?" Xian'er was horrified.
As one of the Ten Flowers, even though she is ranked ninth, her cultivation has reached the third level of concentration.
But the person in front of her... actually completely defeated her whole body with one move.
It's so terrifying and powerful that I can't see the end of it. I don't know how much it is.
Xuan Miao Sect...what level of monster came this time!?
Xian'er was horrified, and for a moment she didn't know how to deal with it. She didn't remember any information about the person in front of her. She had recited all the people in the Xuanmiao Sect who were on the Taoist Records, but there was absolutely no such person in front of her.
In other words, is the Wei He in front of me a newcomer!? Or is he an old monster from Xue Zang!?
At this time, the surrounding women of Wanfei Palace also reacted, became nervous, and surrounded Wei He.
"Let go of Senior Sister Xian'er!" Under the leadership of a white-haired woman.
More than a dozen beautiful women surged with strength, glared angrily, and surrounded Wei He.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Wei He's expression remained unchanged, he just grabbed Ling Xian'er's hand and used a slight force to free up his other hand.
Open your fingers.
The massive strength in his body began to surge, like a rolling ocean tide.
