Chapter 535 19

Luo Guming was a swordsman who had been in the Sword Handling Pavilion for five years, and he was also the fellow disciple and brother of the Sunset Cloud Valley Sect Leader.

Normally, his death would be considered a major event, but it was far more than just trying to move the crowd. However, now that Luo Mo had just ascended to the Immortal Realm and become an immortal, Luo Gu's death was no longer as simple as the fall of a Great Evolution Realm expert.

Over the years, In order to support the tottering Sunset Cloud Valley, it could be said that Luo Guming endured humiliation. In order to buy time for his younger brother, there were also rumors in Great Xia Jianghu that Luo Guming had made many sacrifices. Now that the storm had dispersed, the Sunset Cloud Valley finally had a turning point. However, Luo Guming strangely died in Horizontal Imperial City, in Xu Han's mansion.

Thinking of this, Xu Han couldn't help but frown deeply when he saw the corpse lying on the ground with purple lips and teeth.

"When did you discover it?" Ye Hongjian's mind was calm. She naturally understood what kind of trouble Luo Guming's death would bring to Xu Han. The only way to solve this kind of trouble was to find out the culprit.

As soon as she received this news from Nangong Zhuo, she realized the seriousness of the matter. She immediately wanted to inform Xu Han and the others. This was also the first time she had arrived at the scene.

The surrounding swordsmen looked at each other. They couldn't say why they came. However, Nangong Zhuo thought for a moment before saying, "Fifteen minutes ago, I came to find Elder Luo. When I pushed open the door, I discovered this scene."

Hearing this, Xu Han couldn't help but glance at Nangong Zhuo. It was almost past the Reform Movement, and Nangong Zhuo had come here fifteen minutes ago to look for Luo Gu's life alone. This was in itself a matter worth discussing.

However, Luo Gu's life and death was not only related to Xu Han's safety, but also related to the Sword Handling Pavilion. Nangong Zhuo had no motive, nor did he have the strength to silently kill a Great Evolution Realm expert. Of course, the murderer was someone else. Xu Han understood the seriousness of the matter at this moment, and he did not intend to investigate why Nangong Zhuoye had visited Luo Guming.

At this moment, Chu Chouli, who was standing at the side, also approached. He carefully looked at the corpse that had fallen to the ground and suddenly frowned. He covered his nose and said, "It stinks!"

Hearing this, Xu Han finally came to his senses. Previously, he had deliberately thought about the calamity that Luo Gu Ming's death would bring to everyone, but he had forgotten about this matter. Only now did he smell the foul stench coming from Luo Gu Ming's corpse.

According to the surrounding swordsmen, someone had seen Luo Guming at noon today. In other words, Luo Guming's death occurred at most three to four hours ago. It was impossible for the corpse to stink in such a short period of time. Thinking about this, Xu Han quickly walked to Luo Guming's corpse and began examining it.

It was probably because they were too close that the stench became even more intense, causing Xu Han's nose to turn sour and his stomach to tumble.

He carefully examined Luo Gu Ming's corpse. Although there was a shocking wound on his chest, the amount of blood flowing out was faintly purple, and it was obviously lower than that of an ordinary person. Luo Gu Ming's tightly closed eyes were filled with purple blood lines.

"This is" Xu Han pondered slightly at that time. His gaze swept across the crowd, and he finally said, "It's poisoning."

Not to mention Ye Hongjian and the others, even the surrounding swordsmen's expressions changed.

One had to know that Luo Gu Ming was at least a Great Evolution Realm expert. Ordinary poisons would not be able to harm his life at this realm. Even if there was such a poison, it would be extremely difficult to silently kill him.

"Xiao Han, are you sure?" Ye Hongjian obviously thought of this as well, so she asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." Xu Han nodded and replied confidently. Although he was not sure what kind of poison it was, the cause of Luo Gu's death was undoubtedly so.

"Then the most important thing now is to find out what exactly this poison is!" At that time, Yan Zhan also took over the conversation.

As he said before, the poison that could poison a Great Evolution Realm expert was naturally not an ordinary product. Moreover, such poisons mostly had their own unique origins. As long as he found out what the poison was, he would be able to greatly narrow down the scope of the murderer.

However, these poisoners could probably have thought of this. Therefore, there were some things mixed within the poison that could conceal their true identities. Without a certain level of medical attainments, it was almost impossible for them to decipher this poison.

This was the case with Xu Han's medical skills that he had studied for at least half a year.

Thinking of this, Xu Han frowned. He thought that Luo Gu's death would not be a secret for long. With his brother Luo Mo's ability to ascend to the Immortal Realm, he would be able to arrive at the Horizontal Imperial City tomorrow. If he could not give an explanation at that time, then Xu Han and the others would inevitably have to endure the wrath of this Immortal.

"Should we go find Nangong Jing and ask her to ask Du Pingce for help?" Ye Hongjian, who was at the side, obviously thought of this as well. At that time, she walked to Xu Han's side and whispered to his ear.

Xu Han frowned and nodded. Although he was unwilling to owe Nangong Jing a favor, it seemed that this was the only way to go.

When Xu Han agreed, Ye Hongjian nodded and turned around to leave.

Although she didn't like Nangong Jing, In other words, she did not like Nangong Jing's strange attitude towards Xu Han. However, it was related to Xu Han's safety, so she had no choice but to ask him for help. However, she wanted to ask him for help herself. In this way, at least, she owed him this favor-she was too clear about Xu Han's temperament. Once he owed him a favor, some debts would not be repaid in a single word.

This was Ye Hongjian's cautious tactic as a woman.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" However, just as she took her steps, a tender voice suddenly came from the front of the crowd of swordsmen. A little girl with a horned braid squeezed into the room with an indignant expression. It was probably because this action was too difficult for her. When she arrived in front of the crowd, her face turned a little red.

Ye Hongjian was slightly stunned. She recognized that this was the girl who had returned with Xu Han, but because Luo Guming's death, Ye Hongjian did not have time to inquire about her identity.

"Who is this?" Seeing the other party, she couldn't help but hesitate to turn around and look at Xu Han.

Before Xu Han could respond to this question, Fang Ziyu, who was standing beside him, supported his forehead and sighed, "Whoever deserves it will always come back."

Chu Chouli also sighed and said sadly, "It's raining all night."

Hearing this, Xu Han rolled his eyes at the two of them who were still in the mood to fight. He was just about to open his mouth to explain the background of their encounter with this strange little girl.

However, before she could say anything, the little girl walked over to Luo Gu Ming's corpse with an old face. She stretched out her hand and opened Luo Gu Ming's pupils, carefully examining the eyes that had long since lost their vitality.

The indifference and calmness on his face did not resemble what an eight or nine year old child should look like when facing a corpse.

"What are you doing?" Seeing this, Su Muan was about to shout loudly.

However, just as she said that, the little girl turned her head in dissatisfaction and widened her eyes at Su Muan. She said in an old tone, "Stop messing around."

Being lectured by a little girl who was a few years younger than him, Su Muan naturally felt a little embarrassed.

To a macheteman, face was an extremely important thing.

This was the ancestral instruction of the Su Clan.

So Su Muan was very dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but at this moment, the little girl stood up and walked to Xu Han with her hands behind her back.

Her tiny body looked up at Xu Han at that time. '"Blood contains purple. It's caused by the poisonous Meiya Grass. The stench in my body is caused by the stench of blood worms. However, it's far from enough for the two of them to kill a Great Evolution Realm expert. In the end, these are all illusions used to confuse outsiders. The real cause of death is …"

At this point, the girl paused and blinked at Su Mu'an, who was already shocked by her long speech. Only then did she say in her tender voice, "Mo Luo Xue."

"Mo Luo blood?" Hearing this, Xu Han was stunned. He had probably heard of the first two during his cultivation with the Headmaster for half a year. They were indeed capable of creating such a phenomenon. It was obviously not an ordinary thing for a girl of this age to be able to accurately tell the two. He could not help but ask why this girl had such abilities.

Xu Han had never heard of what Mo Luo's blood was.

Seeing everyone cast curious gazes at him at this moment, the expression on the girl's face became even more serious. She blinked her eyes and said, "The Moro Blood is a poisonous mutated Moro Flower. It is refined from 37 poisonous substances. Its color is bright red and it has a strange fragrance. The poisoned person will be paralyzed and lose consciousness in a very short period of time. Then, he will slowly die. The corpse will turn into blood in the strange fragrance of the Moro Blood."

"The Smelly Blood Bug is only trying to conceal that strange fragrance. Although Meiya Grass is not poisonous, it can prevent the corpse from decaying, so as to create an illusion that can mislead others. Of course, it may also be so that people can clearly know who the person who died is."

After hearing this, everyone's faces were filled with astonishment, both because the little girl from unknown origins was able to say such a reasonable and well-founded statement so easily, and because of the treacherous plot of the person who killed Luo Gushu behind the scenes.

"Where are you going!" Just as Xu Han was thinking about this, Yan Zhan suddenly let out an explosive shout.

Recovering from his shock, Xu Han looked sideways and saw a swordsman dressed in a three-stringed golden robe, like a stray dog, turning around to push away the crowd and flee.

Xu Han still knew this person. He was the swordsman who had taken the lead in causing trouble and said that he had lost something. This person was called Bai Xu. He was an elder of Changchun Valley in the twelve towns. This sect was famous for its medical skills in Great Xia. However, many times, it was similar to poison medicine. At this moment, it was likely that only Changchun Valley could cultivate such poison.

Xu Han naturally understood that this Bai Xu clearly knew about this matter. Before he could think about it, he quickly walked out to stop the person who was about to flee. With his fleshly body cultivation, the speed at which he instantly erupted was naturally not something an ordinary Great Evolution Realm expert could compare to. With a flash, he arrived behind Bai Xu.

Xu Han stretched out his hand to press down on the man's shoulder, and was about to capture him.

But at that time, Bai Xu's body trembled under Xu Han's slapping. In the next moment, his entire body fell to the ground like a puppet that had lost its body line.

Seeing this, everyone present was stunned again. Ye Hongjian quickly walked to the front of Bai Xu, who could not stand up at all. She extended her hand to probe for a bit, and then her expression became serious. She frowned and looked at Xu Hanyan and said, "Dead."

Xu Han also regained his senses. Although he had used a bit of strength in that palm strike just now, he knew that it was far from enough to kill a Great Evolution Realm expert like this. However, once Bai Xu died, especially in front of so many swordsmen, it was very likely that Xu Han would kill Luo Guming and kill Bai Xu, leaving behind a dead end.

Things had progressed to this point. Xu Han also felt that a huge conspiracy was wrapping around him, but he didn't have a clue about it.

He furrowed his brows and froze in place, silent.

The surrounding people, whether it was Ye Hongjian and the others or the swordsmen, were all frightened by this change, and all of them fell silent.

However, there was only one person who didn't seem to be able to sense the strange atmosphere at this moment. She jumped up and down to Xu Han, smiled at him, and said in her tender voice.

"Look, I found the poison for you. Do you want to thank me?"

"How about this, can you teach me your martial arts?"

"Oh, right, I forgot to introduce myself."

"My name is Nineteen."

"From one two three to nineteen nineteen."
