Chapter 5300

"..."

Zhao Ritian was speechless, why did it blow up again?

"No, Wu Qingming is dead."

"What? Wu Qingming is dead?"

Hearing Zhao Ritian's words, Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei were very surprised.

Although Wu Qingming was seriously injured, he couldn't die, right?

How could people die in just one day?

"He killed?"

Xiao Chen looked serious and asked.

"Um."

Zhao Ritian nodded.

"When he was found, he was already dead."

"Where's the soul?"

Xiao Chen asked again.

"With Wu Qingming's strength, the soul is not considered weak."

"I didn't find it, maybe I lost my soul."

After Zhao Ritian sat down, he took a sip of tea.

"Now the city lord's mansion is in a mess... Wu Qingming's death is a big deal."

"Wu Qingming died in the City Lord's Mansion. Even if he had nothing to do with the City Lord's Mansion, he cannot escape the blame."

Xiao Chen said slowly.

"Yeah, the most important thing is... in broad daylight, people are in the city lord's mansion, and people are killed quietly."

Zhao Ritian nodded.

"The people from Qingyun Tower have already gone to the City Lord's Mansion and want an explanation."

"When did it happen?"

Wang Pingbei hurriedly asked.

When he went to inquire about the news in the afternoon, there was still no movement in Qingyun Tower.

"Just now... I was thinking of coming to you guys to give Brother Chen a storage device, but this happened."

As Zhao Ritian said, he took out two storage devices and handed them to Xiao Chen.

"See how it goes."

"very good."

Xiao Chen simply looked at it and put it away.

"Wu Qingming's death should be inseparable from Gongsun Zhen..."

"Gongsun Zhen? But even if he wants to kill Wu Qingming, it's impossible for him to go to the City Lord's Mansion and do it quietly, right?"

Zhao Ritian frowned. In terms of suspicion, Gongsun Zhen was indeed the biggest.

"It's hard to say what method to use, but it definitely has something to do with Gongsun Zhen."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Besides him, there is the Holy Heaven Sect. Maybe it's the Great Snake? He knew that Wu Qingming had been arrested, so he killed him to silence him for fear of revealing any secrets?"

Zhao Ritian said.

"I think his suspicion is also great."

"..."

Wang Pingbei couldn't help but glanced at the bone ring on Xiao Chen's left hand. The Lord Snake is very suspicious?

Big wool!

The old guy's head is still in the ring!

Only when he becomes a ghost can Wu Qingming be killed.

No, he couldn't do it even if he wanted to be a ghost... Xiao Chen sacrificed Xuanyuan Saber, which directly made Venerable Lie Snake lose his soul.

"It shouldn't be the Holy Heaven Sect. It would be more risky for them to do so."

It's not easy for Xiao Chen to directly say that the Great Snake is dead, so he said slowly.

"Even we all know that Wu Qingming will definitely not admit it, so it is impossible to tell the secret, so there is no need to kill... Even if we want to kill, there is no need to kill so early, we can look for opportunities later."

"That's right, if you put it that way, Gongsun Zhen's suspicion is indeed the biggest."

Zhao Ritian nodded.

"Based on their conflict and hatred, it is not impossible to assassinate secretly."

"It's not just about conflict and hatred. After Wu Qingming dies, the situation of Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang will be much better."

Xiao Chen said slowly.

"After all, the dead don't justify themselves. Once Wu Qingming died, his identity as a Demon Sect was crucified...Yesterday, Gongsun Zhen kept trying to kill Wu Qingming, and this was also his intention."

Listening to Xiao Chen's words, Zhao Ritian thought for a while, thoughtfully, it seemed that this was really the case.

"Let's go, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion together."

Xiao Chen got up.

"Perhaps, I can help City Lord Zhao give an idea."

"Yeah, let's go."

Zhao Ritian nodded. Others are not qualified to participate, but Xiao Chen must be.

The three left the inn and came to the City Lord's Mansion.

Here, the martial law is obviously a lot.

A burst of noise came from the depths of the City Lord's Mansion.

It was a strong man in Qingyun Building, Wu Qingming died in the City Lord's Mansion, they must have something to say.

Not only the people from Qingyun Building, but also Gongsun Zhen, Ji Wuji, Huai Tianlei and others arrived.

"Zhao Cangqiong, man, we handed it over to you, now that he is dead, what should I say?"

That 'Elder Qian' looked at Zhao Cangqiong and said coldly.

"I will investigate this matter and give Qing Yun Lou an explanation."

Zhao Cangqiong said in a deep voice.

As the city lord, as one of the leaders, he couldn't evade his responsibility.

This is what he has to face.

Not only him, but also Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei.

On this matter, the three of them had the same opinion, and some decisions were made together.

After all, Gongsun Zhen was involved.

"Brother Chen."

Zhao Yuanji noticed Xiao Chen and hurried over.

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Why is he here?"

Gongsun Zhen looked at Xiao Chen with a cold expression.

"Why, you can come, but I can't?"

Xiao Chen was also not polite, and directly responded.

There is no possibility of peace talks between them. Even if he doesn't kill Gongsun Zhen, Gongsun Zhen still wants to kill him.

"you……"

Gongsun Zhen was furious.

"I was thinking, isn't this Gongsun's house?"

Xiao Chen pouted.

"Meddle less...Meddle more, and die early."

"Chen Xiao, you are here."

Zhao Cangqiong opened his mouth, which can be regarded as interrupting the conflict between the two.

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Heard what happened here, come and see."

"Come and see the excitement, come, come to my side... I am also watching the excitement here."

Lu Hongyun waved.

"Let's watch the excitement, just move to the side, don't make trouble for others."

"..."

Zhao Cangqiong's face turned dark, the wine last night was for nothing!

"haha okay."

Xiao Chen smiled and came to Lu Hongyun's side.

"Who do you think is the murderer?"

Lu Wudi asked bluntly.

"Gongsun Zhen."

Xiao Chen's answer was also very straightforward.

"This old guy is the most suspicious."

"..."

Listening to the conversation between the two, the veins on Gongsun Zhen's forehead kept throbbing.

"Shut up, old man!"

"Look, is he guilty? Is he angry from embarrassment?"

Xiao Chen pointed at Gongsun Zhen and said to Lu Wudi.

"yes."

Lu Wudi looked at Gongsun Zhen seriously and nodded.

"Click..."

Gongsun Zhen clenched his fist and made a noise.

He wanted to do it.

But he held back, he now has a full understanding of Xiao Chen's strength.

If you really do it, he won't be able to take advantage of it for a while!

"Senior Lu, what's going on? Tell me?"

Xiao Chen ignored Gongsun Zhen, looked at Lu Hongyun and said.

Although Zhao Ritian had already said it, he was not so clear, he just said that Wu Qingming died quietly.

"It's not complicated. Someone avoided the guards and killed Wu Qingming."

Lu Hongyun said.

"Where's the guard? Dead too?"

Xiao Chen hurriedly asked.

"The weirdest thing is here... the guard is not dead, and nothing abnormal was found."

Lu Hongyun shook his head.

"It's equivalent to someone quietly killing Wu Qingming under the guard's nose."

"..."

Xiao Chen was surprised, this is really weird.

Wu Qingming is very strong, even if he was hit hard, he shouldn't have struggled and reacted at all.

But now, he is dead, without alarming the guards outside at all!

"How can we be sure that it was homicide? According to this statement, homicide is almost impossible."

Wang Pingbei couldn't help but said.

"Did he have a motive for suicide? Not at all."

Lu Hongyun shook his head.

"The most important thing is that we have checked just now, and his body is still a little abnormal. Although the murderer wanted to pretend that he committed suicide, it is impossible not to leave a little clue."

"What's abnormal?"

Xiao Chen was curious.

"Also, Wu Qingming's soul is not weak. He is dead, and the soul should exist... His soul is gone."

"That's right, the first anomaly is that he has lost his soul... The second is that his Divine Palace has been destroyed."

Lu Hongyun said.

"The person who killed him should be a strong cultivator, who is very good at spiritual methods... Maybe it's all out of his body, and he came to kill Wu Qingming."

"The soul is out of the body, killing people thousands of miles away?"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen blurted out.

"Thousands of miles away may be an exaggeration, but he is very likely to be nearby... Besides, if he is really out of his body, he can also hide it from the guards and kill him quietly."

Lu Hongyun said slowly.

"..."

Xiao Chen was quite restless, his body could not come, but his spirit could come out of his body to kill people. Such means are only in the legend.

At least... no one in the ancient martial arts world should be able to do it.

No, can the old fortune teller do it?

There is also Amaterasu who is good at cultivating gods, can she do it?

"We also suspect Gongsun Zhen, but there is no evidence. Such methods are not possessed by Gongsun Zhenneng, nor is he a strong cultivator."

Lu Hongyun said again.

"Indeed, if he could have such unpredictable means, he would have killed me long ago."

Xiao Chen nodded, also a little confused, if it wasn't Gongsun Zhen, then who?

"What we are most suspicious of right now is the Great Snake... There are rumors about him in the Jianghu, but there are not many, so we don't know much about him, we only know that he is very strong."

Lu Hongyun said.

"Is he strong? That's it...you can doubt anyone, but you can't doubt Venerable Snake."

Xiao Chen murmured in his heart, and was a little thankful that he used the sleeping fruit directly, so he didn't give Venerable Serpent the chance to play.

In a real head-to-head battle, it's really hard to say who will win the battle.

"It shouldn't be Venerable Snake."

Xiao Chen shook his head, and repeated what he said to Zhao Ritian just now.

"It also makes sense, so now I am like a fan..."

As Lu Hongyun said, he glanced at Zhao Cangqiong.

"Old Zhao is going to have a headache."

"I want to see Wu Qingming's body, can I?"

Xiao Chen thought about it and said.

"You have to ask Lao Zhao and the others, I'm just a spectator."

Lu Hongyun smiled.

"good."

Xiao Chen also smiled, and walked towards Zhao Cangqiong.

After he said the words, before Zhao Cangqiong could open his mouth, Gongsun Zhen said coldly: "The idlers are waiting, how can they just watch?"

"Aren't you an idler? Oh, yes, you are a murderer... You are indeed not an idler."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he looked at the people in Qingyun Building again.

"Seniors, I have met Elder Wu several times, and the chats were quite speculative. I want to see him one last time, and I hope it will happen."
