Chapter 565: Chapter 61 Decision

"Hmph, if it weren’t for Xiao Qianxiu’s delay of over four months, we would have definitely caught that person’s tail, instead of coming up empty-handed," Qin Xihai coldly snorted.

She was exceedingly dissatisfied with Xiao Qianxiu; had she not been incapable of defeating him, she might have already visited him to deliver a lesson by now.

"Now it seems I was wrong. The killer of Qi Feng couldn’t have been Qing Yu. Even though Qing Yu is exceptionally talented, it’s utterly impossible for him to escape with his life from Xiao Qianxiu," Ning Wuming sighed lightly.

"Wait a moment, Lord Ning, are you saying that the one who killed Mr. Lu and Luo Yan is this masked person?" Bu Lengchuan exclaimed in shock.

"Wasn’t it said that no one saw the killer’s exact appearance?"

When Lu Qifeng and Luo Yan were killed, Bu Lengchuan was one of the first Six Gates constables to arrive at the scene.

Most of the onlookers of the battle died from the aftermath, and the few survivors, due to their low realms, were intimidated by the spiritual power of two True Pill Realm experts and only had a vague impression of the two individuals.

Under such circumstances, the Six Gates didn’t even know the killer’s clothing. Ultimately, Ning Wuming, always known for his clever strategies, boldly conjectured that the killer was Qing Yu.

The speed at which Qing Yu’s Martial Arts power improved had always been frightening. Had he not immediately hidden himself after advancing to Divine Origin, the Six Gates might have invited him for a chat over tea, perhaps to share some secrets.

That Qing Yu, holding a very deep secret, could break through to the True Pill Realm, which was beyond ordinary understanding, was also a rather reasonable guess.

However, this conjecture now collapsed with this letter.

Ning Wuming nodded, "Those wandering people from worldly society have a certain strength, but there’s a vast difference between them and Mr. Lu and the masked person. That they were unable to describe the appearance due to their shock is normal too."

He paused, "However, they did see it after all. The appearance of that person is in their memories; they just can’t make sense of it. That’s why it’s not impossible for us to know the appearance of the killer."

"Since they can’t make sense of their memories, we’ll look ourselves."

Qin Xihai was the one who spoke. Her face was now indifferent, and there was a brutality in her words that even made Bu Lengchuan, known for his fierce Sword Technique, feel intimidated.

Look for themselves? How?

Actually, it’s quite simple—Soul Searching Technique. They would treat these people as criminals, invading their memories with strong spiritual power and digging out these memories.

This would cause these people mental harm, and the best outcome would be they would become idiots. But such sacrifice among the wandering people was negligible in comparison to clarifying the death of the "Chasing Wind Divine Constable."

"All those present should have their souls searched. Stitch together the murderer’s attire at last. Dark golden armor, a mask that’s divided between top and bottom, and black hair. Although Qing Yu now has white hair, changing hair color is no difficulty for Qing Yu who is skilled in the Disguise Technique. Therefore, I always believed the person to be Qing Yu. But now..."

Now, the killer had changed.

Even if Qing Yu’s power advanced rapidly, he could not have improved so quickly as to escape from Xiao Qianxiu.

Keep in mind, even the top ten experts of the True Pill Realm on the Earth List would find it difficult to escape from someone of the Divinity Realm. Not to mention, this Divinity Realm expert is Manor Master Xiao Qianxiu of Yu Jian Manor.

"We once thought that it might also be the doing of someone sent by the Shadow King, especially since Mr. Lu arguably stood on my side during the Divine Constable election. However, we’ve had eyes on the Shadow King Sect’s experts the whole time, and it would’ve been very difficult for them to act.

Now it seems we underestimated the Shadow King’s power," Qin Xihai shook her head and sighed bitterly.

Actually, there was another reason. Those True Pill Realm experts under the Shadow King, although some had not revealed their true faces, had their Martial Arts characteristics all recorded by the Six Gates.

If it were found that the assassin of Lu Qifeng was one of the Shadow King’s people, even if it were just a suspicion, it would be problematic for the Shadow King and stir up a hornet’s nest. After all, such rash killing is very taboo.

It’s just that the people from the Six Gates didn’t expect the Shadow King to have such formidable experts hidden.

"A traitor from Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhang Xuanji, and that masked person. Heh, the Shadow King really has quite a few hidden pieces!" Ning Wuming opened his eyes wide, his lifeless pupils at that moment also filled with deep murderous intent.

"Assassinating Qi Feng, so even if Xihai won, he couldn’t stop that guy from ascending to the position of the Divine Constable. What a scheme, truly a clever scheme!"

"Does the Shadow King consider the people of my Six Gates as pigs to be slaughtered?! Ah?!"

Toward the end, Ning Wuming roared in a low voice, his voice containing indescribable bitterness and hatred.

Kill when needed, isn’t that treating them like pigs to be slaughtered? The Shadow King’s brazenness made everyone from the Six Gates feel a sense of hurt. Not to mention, Ning Wuming and Lu Qifeng had actually been very close friends. Over the years, with Lu Qifeng mainly dealing with external affairs and Ning Wuming with internal affairs, the two could be said to be two extremely important brains of the Six Gates.

"We must show the Shadow King a thing or two..."

His resolute words filled Qin Xihai with joy.

In the past while, this strong-minded Goddess of Capture had always proposed to directly strike at Shadow Pavilion, but Ning Wuming, always considering stability, had never agreed. But now, Ning Wuming was also angered.

"It should be so!" Qin Xihai declared forcefully.

She had been looking forward to this day for quite some time.

"Xihai, go to Jixia Academy and invite the Philosopher Sacrificial Officer Ming Jijiu for assistance. The Divinity Realm experts of the Shadow King have seldom been revealed, and we need to make preparations," Ning Wuming instructed Qin Xihai.

"Don’t summon the Divine Captors?"

"Is the leader of our Six Gates supposed to come out and deal with an enemy’s underling?"

"I understand."

Qin Xihai moved swiftly. She immediately changed her clothes and went to request the Philosopher at Jixia Academy.

Once again, the garden became peaceful. However, the two people left behind were far from calm.

...

Outside Divine Capital.

A carriage slowly made its way towards the Northern Zhou’s capital.

The carriage looked very ordinary, not much different from others on the road. If there was a difference, it was only that the carriage was driven by a woman.

However, inside the carriage, another exquisitely beautiful woman marked the distinctiveness of this carriage from any other.

"In the end, one has to come to Divine Capital to find clues." Yun Wuyue opened the carriage window, revealing a slight crack, and gazed at the distant majestic city.

On her face, there was a hint of mild exhaustion.

During this time, she had traveled everywhere to find that person’s whereabouts. Her spies had also been continuously tracing the Blood Robe Building.

Sadly, even after she finally found Ji Tang, she did not learn the whereabouts of Gong Ziyu.

Therefore, ultimately she came to Divine Capital, the place where the Azure Dragon Association and Gong Ziyu had completely disappeared.
