Zhou Cheng first sent Ye Junyu back to Zangjian Pavilion, and then returned to Taihua Mountain. As for the purpose of the Tianshan Sword Sect, Ye Junyu would go and inquire.

After returning to Chunyang Sect, Zhou Chengxian went to pay homage to Taoist Huaizhen and explained his achievements during his travels during this period, including the affairs of the Divine Realm and the Tianshan Sword Sect.

Regarding the matters in the Divine Seed Realm, Taoist Huai Zhen only said that the star field is special and not as simple as it seems, but it does not explain in detail. However, the matter of the Tianshan Sword Sect made Taoist Huanzhen think about it, and even went to discuss it with Yuxu Tianzun. It seemed that it was not simple.

However, no matter what, Zhou Cheng threw all these things to the sect, so he didn't have to worry about it for the time being and could concentrate on practicing. Ye Junyu's cultivation speed really stimulated him, and he had to hurry up and improve his cultivation.

After dealing with many things, Zhou Cheng entered a state of retreat. More than half a month passed in a flash. When he came out of seclusion, he had already broken through to the middle stage of the Linghui Realm as he wished, and he was still a little less accumulation from the late stage of the Linghui Realm.

Originally, he planned to go out for a trip after leaving the customs, visit Zhong Qinyuan on Shenxiao Road, and then visit Du Guang in the Southern Jin Dynasty, and discuss the countermeasures for the next reincarnation mission.

However, Taoist Huaizhen suddenly called him over, and these plans could only be suppressed.

The top of Jinxu Peak, in Huaizhen Hall.

Zhou Cheng looked at the good-looking man on weekdays and seemed a little sad at this moment, and couldn't help but worry, "Master, what's wrong? But what happened?"

"Your Master Ji Hong was assassinated at home last night." Taoist Huaizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You go to Taifeng County City and be sure to find out the real murderer."

"Uncle Ji Hong was assassinated? Uncle Ji Hong, the governor of Taifeng City County?" Zhou Cheng was shocked when he heard this.

Ji Hong, the governor of Taifeng City, and Taoist Huaizhen, were from the same era. They also traveled around the world together, drank and sang, and were on the Yinghua List together. It’s a pity that Taoist Huaizhen’s cultivation speed is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Especially after clicking on the Spiritual Wisdom, the speed of cultivation was incredibly fast, unimpeded, until the seven souls returned to the truth, leaving Ji Hong far behind.

However, the friendship between the two did not decrease, and they would sometimes have some contact. When Zhou Cheng went to attend the sword-pinning conference, he passed by Taifeng County City. It was at that time that he and Ji Hong met one time.

At that time, Zhou Chengzheng was chased by Shangqing Dao and Handu, and killed many assassins in Taifeng City. It was Ji Hong who helped to cover it up, so it did not cause any disturbance. He was alarmed by Liushemen, so that he could not be chased by Liushemen.

Strictly speaking, Ji Hong also has kindness to Zhou Cheng.

"It's him." Taoist Huaizhen nodded and said with a little desolate: "It's a pity that he promised me the sixty-year Drunken Immortal Brew. I said I'll give it to me for another twenty years. Now it seems that it's a long way off."

"Master... Say sad." This is the first time Zhou Cheng has seen Taoist Huaizhen so lonely, but it is reasonable to think about it. In the era of Taoist Huaizhen, most people were suppressed by his absolute strength. There are probably not many friends who can really make friends with him, and Ji Hong should be one of them.

Such a friend was suddenly assassinated and died, and it is normal for Taoist Huai Zhen to be sad and lonely.

Taoist Huaizhen said: "At this time, the six local gates will intervene. It may not be easy if you intervene as a disciple of Chunyang Sect. It should be easier to use your identity as a prince of the Great Qi Tiance."

"Disciple follows the teachings of Master." Zhou Cheng nodded with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: "I will find out the real culprit as soon as possible and give Master Ji Hong justice!"

"Go." Taoist Huaizhen waved his hand and said, "I want to take a break."

"Disciple said goodbye." Zhou Cheng bowed his hand and said goodbye, turned around and left Huaizhen Palace, then turned into a stream of light and flew away, heading directly towards Taifeng City.

...

Inside the Liangyi transformed boat, Zhou Cheng sat cross-legged on the ground, frowned slightly, thinking about something. He was a little surprised why his master had to let him find out the truth of the matter.

If a friend dies in the eyes of ordinary people and let his disciples investigate, it is normal, but for a weapon refiner, you can use deduction and calculation methods to obtain nearly accurate answers for things like this.

In this way, as long as a murder occurs, there is no need to conduct investigation step by step. As long as a certain amount of information is collected and then deduced, the final real murderer can be pointed out.

"Using Master's deduction ability, under normal circumstances, it is impossible that no one can deduce the murderer." Zhou Cheng thought to himself: "Under such a situation, Master still asks me to investigate, which may indicate... this matter may also have something to do with me.

The only place where Master Ji Hong has something to do with me was that time to help me cook the corpses of those assassins... Wait, among those assassins, there was a female assassin, who had a close-fitting jade pendant of the Eighteenth Prince of Qi.

If the female assassin really had an unknown intimate relationship with the Eighteenth Prince, then the mastermind behind this murder would probably be locked in, but this is just a speculation. It is still necessary to find out the truth. "

After all, Ji Hong is the prefect of a county. Although his official rank is not too high, it is definitely not low. Especially when governing the people's livelihood in a county, this position can be said to be the top priority. It is definitely not an official who can be assassinated casually. This matter is mostly strange.

With Ji Hong's identity and cultivation, being able to assassinate him without knowing it should at least be the strength of the late stage of the Tianchong Realm, and his identity should not be an ordinary person in the martial arts world.

From this point of view, the status and status of the Prince of Daqi are very consistent. It was really easy for a prince to kill a county magistrate. He didn't even need to take action himself. There would be a lot of masters waiting for the prince's demolition below.

"If you find it in the end, you will find out the Daqi royal family." Zhou Cheng suddenly chuckled on his face: "Ha, that's really interesting."

...

Taifeng County City is only more than 7,000 miles away from Tianhua Mountain, not too far. Zhou Chengyu sent Liangyi to transform the boat and soon felt it.

Before he entered the city, Zhou Cheng felt an extremely sad atmosphere. The sides of the city gate were filled with white flowers. None of the pedestrians came and went, all wearing white clothes, consciously mourning Ji Hong, the county magistrate who was assassinated.
