580. Fengyun sword, killing without blood
"What should I do now?" Qi Ningyuan asked.
Mu Yan was also wondering what to do now.
Yuanyin Temple must be visited. The current question is, how to deal with the false Chenji.
The false Chen Ji's identity is still unpredictable, so it would be a pity to kill him directly. If you use the puppet Gu, it is very likely that it is equivalent to killing him directly. He has also said this himself.
At this time, it is very important to improve his strength and obtain more information from the people behind the scenes. The former is sure to be able to operate, while the latter needs to use the puppet Gu, which has a great possibility of failure. So after thinking about it, she looked at Xiao Xinghan: "His internal strength is still there, do you want it?"
Xiao Xinghan thought for a while and said one word: "Yes." His Yuntian Heart Method is still a distance away from the highest level. Thanks to the Long Yanhua he took before, his internal strength has increased very quickly. Now he can try to take away the internal strength of another master and turn it into his own use.
In recent years, Xiao Xinghan has experienced many twists and turns in his martial arts practice. If Mu Yan hadn't been there, there would definitely be big problems in the middle. Without Mu Yan's words, Xiao Xinghan knew that the most important thing he should do now is to improve his strength. Better than Mu Yan and better than Chen Ji, it is not enough. He has to reach the limit because they have bigger enemies to deal with.
Qi Ningyuan thought silently in his heart that he was waiting for the matter to be finished and compete with Xiao Xinghan for martial arts. Now he felt that there was no need to compete. When Xiao Xinghan sucked the internal strength of the old bitch, Qi Ningyuan could not be his opponent.
"Then let's suck his internal strength, and it's useless to keep it." Mu Yan said.
"Get some blood in my heart first." Xiao Xinghan frowned slightly.
Mu Yan's heart was slightly moved: "You are suspicious. Maybe there is a blood relationship between him and the mastermind behind the scenes we guessed that there might be?"
"It's not impossible." Xiao Xinghan nodded.
"Well, you can try it and use his heart blood to raise a Blood Trace Gu. But there is a possibility that even if there is a blood relationship between them, if that person has taken the antidote of Blood Trace Gu, it will be useless." Mu Yan sighed slightly, "It's settled, take the Heart Blood to raise the Gu first, and then you suck his internal energy. Let's rest for two days and go to Xingzhe Island to meet the Master Yuantong to see if Xuanyuan Ye is dead or alive."
"Okay." Xiao Xinghan nodded.
"Let me do it." Qi Ningyuan took the initiative to suggest that he wanted to get the blood of Fake Chen Ji, because of the same thing, Fake Chen Ji had done both Zhen Chen Ji and Qi Ningyuan more than once.
But in fact, the fake Chen Ji is crazy now. What Qi Ningyuan does to him is not that meaningful of revenge.
"Cousin, there is one more thing you forgot." Qi Ningyuan looked down at him and said after taking the fake Chen Ji's blood.
"What's the matter?" Mu Yan asked.
"The treasure map is the one from the Qi family." Qi Ningyuan said, feeling a little ashamed, "I didn't expect that the six treasure maps would be lost in my hand in the end. Perhaps only this old bitch knew where the treasure map was. If he died, he would probably never find it again."
"If there is really someone else behind him, that treasure map may not be in his hands. The treasure map will eventually appear one day, and his mouth will not be pried open. You have also seen it in the past two days." Mu Yan said, "No matter what the treasure map is, we will deal with this person according to the original plan. We don't know who the biggest enemy we are facing and where we are hiding. We need to improve our strength, at least Xiao Hanhan's strength must be as high as possible."
Qi Ningyuan Zheng pointed: "I understand. But I am still sorry, I really dragged my back on the treasure map."
"It's okay." Mu Yan shook her head, "I've always found it a little strange about the treasure map."
Qi Ningyuan's expression moved slightly: "Does my cousin think the origin of the treasure map is very strange? I have thought about this before. It is said that the Xuanyuan family on Yunzhong Island has been completely destroyed. Who divided the treasure map into six pieces, so that each family can get one piece?"
Zhen Chenji said, "I know about this. There were originally seven families. After the accident in Yunzhong Island, the Xuanyuan family was gone. The people from the six families made an appointment to go to Yunzhong Island together. First, they checked that there were no living people on the island, and secondly, they were looking for the treasures of the Xuanyuan family. You may think that when Yunzhong Island was bleeding, we were still looking for treasures. However, no one was willing to give in to this matter at that time."
"Grandpa, this is nothing shameless, it's normal. Yunzhong Island is gone. If you can share the treasure peacefully, you can avoid the killing of each other for the sake of fighting." Mu Yan said calmly.
Zhen Chenji nodded: "Yes. We didn't find any living people on the island at that time. Later, we entered the city lord's mansion on Yunzhong Island together. After searching for a long time, we found a treasure map."
"Grandpa said, what you found back then was a whole treasure map?" Qi Ningyuan was a little surprised.
"Yes." Zhen Chenji nodded, "After finding the treasure map, the Wei family was the first to take action to take it for themselves. The Han family also tried to attack the masters of other families. The six families originally united to step on Yunzhong Island, and quickly turned against the interests."
"How did the conflict calm later?" Qi Ningyuan asked.
"How could it be calmed down?" Zhen Chenji smiled bitterly, "The treasure map was still in its original place at that time. After the people from the six families watched it together, each family sent an elder to guard it, and the six city lords went to discuss how to allocate it. I suggested that I follow the treasure map together to find the treasure, and then the six families were divided equally. Only Qi Yuan agreed, and the other four city lords disagreed because they all wanted to monopolize it. At that time, the heads of the Chen family and the Qi family died on Yunzhong Island, and Qi Yuan and I were young.
As the city lord, compared with the other four families, there was no room for even speaking. They once wanted to unite and resolve our two cities first. However, they were not one mind between the four cities. In the end, the stalemate was held for a long time. The result of the negotiation was that the treasure map was divided into six equally. One family took one, and which one company had the ability to get all six treasure maps and could get all the treasures. In this way, everyone started the same starting point and had the exclusive opportunity. After leaving Yunzhong Island, they all rely on their abilities."
"So that's it." Mu Yan thought, "I guess there have been many storms in secret because of the treasure map in those years, but each family is very strict. It is almost impossible to get other families. Qi Ningyuan, do you still remember that in the Han family in Poyang City, you were ordered by this old bitch to steal Long Yanhua and the treasure map. Did he tell you where the treasure map is?"
Qi Ningyuan nodded: "I remember. What he said at that time was that he and the Old City Lord Han were old friends and talked about everything, so he knew the Han family's secrets, but I think he was lying. As for why he knew where the Han family's treasure map was hidden, I think it might have used the puppet Gu to control the Old City Lord Han?"
"It's possible." Mu Yan nodded, "As a master of witchcraft, he actually had many opportunities to get all the treasure maps of other families in those years, but he was not so active in this matter, and he did not give up, because he kept his grandfather's life for the treasure map of the Chen family. In short, there are many strange things in his behavior, and maybe we won't know the reason."
Since it has been decided, Xiao Xinghan has taken the fake Chen Ji out, and he has to go back to the room to raise the Gu first, and then suck the fake Chen Ji's internal strength.
"Grandpa, I also want to ask you, how did my biological mother Feng Qingran come to my grandfather?" Mu Yan looked at Zhen Chen Ji and asked, "Did Feng Xiaoting escape from Yunzhong Island with her children?"
Zhen Chenji sighed and said, "Not long after the accident in Yunzhongdao, one morning I opened the door and saw Qingran, who was still in her infancy, being placed at the door. A letter was written by Feng Xiaoting, saying that he was seriously injured and his life was not long. I hope I can help raise his young daughter. In the letter, the child's name is Feng Qingran. I have searched, but I didn't find Feng Xiaoting, and I don't know whether he was dead or alive or where he went."
"Is it possible that he has something to do with the destruction of Yunzhong Island?" Mu Yan looked at Zhen Chen Ji and asked.
Zhen Chenji frowned: "It shouldn't be. Feng Xiaoting and I are good friends. He is a very decent person. On Yunzhong Island, I saw the body of his parents, his wife, and the bodies of a pair of twin sons. I think he might only have time to rescue the daughter who was not long ago."
"Feng Xiaoting has been hiding in Shuoshui City for a long time, but she didn't let her grandfather know." Mu Yan told Zhen Chenji about the day before yesterday that she and Xiao Xinghan went to search on the Qingxue Mountain and found a mysterious cave.
Zhen Chenji was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't understand why Feng Xiaoting refused to meet him for so many years in Shuoxuecheng. Instead, he hid alone in the mountains and watched Feng Qingran grow up little by little from afar.
Mu Yan showed Zhen Chenji the album that he took back from the cave. Zhen Chenji saw the portraits of Feng Qingran from childhood on the album, and his eyes were red again, and he was filled with emotion. But what did Feng Xiaoting encounter back then and why he made such a choice? I am afraid that only he himself has the answer.
"I didn't see the body, but I suspect that Feng Xiaoting should be gone." Mu Yan said, "If he were there, he would definitely be by his daughter's side at all times, and his Fengyun Sword was also left in that cave."
"That should have been left to Qingran, but now it is God's will to be found by you." Zhen Chenji looked at Mu Yan and said.
"Grandpa, what do you think about what happened next in Shuo Xuecheng?" Mu Yan looked at Zhen Chen Ji and asked, "The great elder Cong Yun, who once had the best relationship with you, has never had any problems. He has been in seclusion recently. His nephew and I have had an intersection in Tianyuan Da 6. When he comes out of seclusion, he will know the truth about Shuo Xuecheng these years."
"Cong Yun, I'm afraid he won't recognize me when he sees goodbye." Zhen Chenji's expression was a little sad, "Little Huaer, what did you plan? I lost all my skills and am a useless person now. Not to mention Shuo Xuecheng, I can't even take care of myself, and I have to rely on you to protect me. You can arrange this Shuo Xuecheng."
"Qi Xiaoyuan, what do you think?" Mu Yan looked at Qi Ningyuan.
Qi Ningyuan shook his head: "Don't look at me, I know what you are thinking. I don't even want Luoying City, let alone be the lord of Shuoxue City. I think it's better to let Cong Yun take care of Shuoxue City."
"Does grandpa think he can trust him?" Mu Yan asked Zhen Chen Ji.
Zhen Chenji nodded: "We were like brothers back then, but it has been so long. You should see him first."
"Okay, I'll send a message to Cong Wen to come over to see if Cong Yun has come out of seclusion." Mu Yan said, and said a few more words to Zhen Chenji, then got up and came out.
Mu Yan sent a letter to Cong Wen, and then entered her and Xiao Xinghan's room.
The Blood Trace Gu that was raised with the fake Chen Ji's blood has been prepared, and it will take about three days to develop it.
Xiao Xinghan sat cross-legged on the ground, with his eyes closed, and a white mist lingered around his body. It should be caused by the sudden infusion of a large amount of internal force into his dantian.
But the fake Chen Ji fell aside and was completely exhausted. He was searched by Qi Ningyuan and there was no treasure map, which was expected.
Xiao Xinghan was adjusting the large amount of internal force he was ingested. Mu Yan didn't dare to disturb him. Soon he went out gently again. He held the sword score of Fengyun Sword Technique in his hand and sat at the door to guard Xiao Xinghan. At the same time, he planned to memorize the formula of Fengyun Sword Technique because this thing seemed to be really powerful. Xiao Xinghan's strength had surpassed Mu Yan's strength, and Mu Yan wanted to try his best to chase him.
As a result, before Mu Yan could finish reading Fengyun's sword technique from beginning to end, she saw Cong Wen coming.
"Miss Ajiu." Cong Wen's face looked ugly, his eyes were full of pain, and his emotions were very different from the last time he met. He seemed to have something that Mu Yan didn't know.
"What's wrong?" Mu Yan asked curiously.
"My grandpa..." Cong Wen said with red eyes, "He's gone."
Mu Yan's expression narrowed: "What's going on? Didn't Elder Cong always practice in seclusion? Is there something wrong with practicing qigong?"
"No..." Cong Wen shook his head, "not only my grandfather, but the two uncles who guarded the pass for my grandfather were also dead. They all pierced the heart with one sword, the same move."
"When did it happen?" Mu Yan's face was slightly dark.
"One hour ago, Miss Ajiu didn't look for me, I was going to come to find Miss Ajiu." Cong Wen looked at Mu Yan and said, "Miss Ajiu, come with me to see. The murderer left some things, and I can't bring them."
"Wait." Mu Yan nodded.
Mu Yan asked Mu Lin to come over to guard Xiao Xinghan's pass, and asked Qi Ningyuan to take a look here, so that there would be no trouble. She followed Cong Wen and left.
On the way, Cong Wen asked if Zhen Chen Ji was saved, and Mu Yan gave him a positive answer.
"There was an accident in Qian Xueju last night. Today, all the masters of the Chen family disappeared. So many masters were missing in the city lord's mansion, and people were in panic. Before I could tell my grandfather about the secrets that Miss Ajiu told me, I didn't expect something to happen to him." Cong Wen looked sad.
Mu Yan followed Cong Wen to an area where the Cong family lived specifically in the Shuoxue City Lord's Mansion. There were several yards. The most quiet one was Cong Yun's residence, and it was also the place where he had been retreating and practicing before.
The yard was covered with snow and there were no signs of fighting at the door, but the marks left by someone slumped in the snow and some messy footprints were left by the Cong family who took the body away.
Mu Yan felt something was wrong, so she took a look inside the snow again, and followed Cong Wen into the room in front of her.
This was Cong Yun's room. At this time, he was lying on the bed. Apart from the sword wound on his chest, there was no other wound on his body. His clothes were also neatly worn, and even his face was peaceful.
"Miss Ajiu, look over there." Cong Wen pointed in one direction and asked Mu Yan to look at it.
Mu Yan turned her head and her eyes shrank slightly. Originally, there was a large natural purple jade bonsai in the room. It was about one person tall next to the bookshelf by the window. Now, there were three words "Xuanyuan Ye" engraved with a sword on it...
Cong Wen said to Mu Yan with an ugly expression: "I wonder if Miss Ajiu has ever heard of the name Xuanyuan Ye. He is the culprit of the destruction of the Yunzhong Island. He is a murderer. Unexpectedly, he has not died yet and appears again!"
"It's not necessarily Xuanyuan Ye based on this engraving." Mu Yan felt something strange. She looked at Cong Yun's body again, with an inexplicable look on her face and asked, "Why did the three people die and didn't see a drop of blood?"
