Who could the murderer be?
Everyone was guessing. After all, there were many people in the Huangfu Clan who could kill Miss Wu 'er without anyone noticing.
At this time, the crowd parted to form a path. Two figures rushed out, and the one in front was Huangfu Yu. His face was pale, and there were tears in his eyes. He looked sorrowful. Everyone felt pity for him when they saw him in such pain.
After all, Miss Wu 'er was Huangfu Yu's fiancée. Although they had only known each other for a short time, they definitely had deep feelings for each other.
At this moment, Huangfu Yu roared Wu 'er's name and staggered into the building. His father, Huangfu Fengyun, also had an ugly expression on his face as he hurriedly followed behind him. The others saw that they had already entered. Within the family, those with higher status could also enter.
"Big brother, let's go in and take a look."
With Huangfu Qi leading the way, no one stopped Long Chen, even though Long Chen was just an outsider.
Just like that, there were more than twenty people who entered.
Long Chen didn't say anything. He stared at Huangfu Yu in front of him. Huangfu Yu's current behavior puzzled Long Chen. He could roughly guess the truth, but if that was the case, why would Huangfu Yu act like this? Could it be that he was pretending? Did he have some ulterior motive?
Very soon, everyone entered Wu 'er's boudoir. Along the way, there were Huangfu Clan's guards, and they firmly controlled the scene. At the door of Wu' er's room, a middle-aged man said to Huangfu Yu, "Young Master Yu, after discovering the accident, we didn't touch anything inside."
"Investigate. We must find out who the murderer is. I, Huangfu Yu, will definitely turn his bones into ashes. I will definitely, definitely. I will let him experience the most terrifying torture." Huangfu Yu said with a sinister expression.
Beside him, Huangfu Fengyun ordered with an ugly expression, "Huangfu Yang, who was the first to discover Wu 'er's death?"
"It's Wu 'er's servant girl. She found it fifteen minutes ago. I heard her calling so I rushed here. Cui' er, come here." Huang Fuyang called a girl dressed like a servant girl over.
Before Huangfu Fengyun could say anything, Huangfu Yu had already rushed into the room. Huangfu Fengyun's expression was filled with pain as he said, "Let's talk inside. I want to see who it is that dares to kill a member of my Huangfu Clan in our territory."
Everyone rushed in like a swarm of bees. Fortunately, Wu 'er's room was big enough, so everyone had enough space to stand. At this time, more than twenty people with relatively high status were surrounding her, and there were even one or two warriors in the Earth Martial Arts Realm.
Long Chen also followed Huangfu Qi in. Huangfu Qi could be considered the little devil of the Huangfu family. She hurriedly shouted for everyone to make way, and the others couldn't stop her. They all moved aside, allowing Huangfu Qi to pull Long Chen to the front.
"Wu 'er."
Suddenly, there was a painful scream. At this time, Huangfu Yu was already in tears as he threw himself at Wu 'er's corpse. Long Chen looked over and saw that there was a pale woman kneeling on the ground. Her arms and head were on the edge of the bed, and there was a deep red mark on her neck. It was obvious that she had been strangled to death. Most importantly, Wu' er's clothes were messy, and her snow-white skin could be seen. It was obvious that before she died, someone had violated her, but she had sworn to resist. That was why she had died.
"Someone wanted her, but she didn't allow it, and then she killed him."
Long Chen's mind was a bit muddled. He looked at Huangfu Yu, who was currently throwing himself at Wu 'er's corpse. Huangfu Fengyun stopped him and said, "Little Yu, don't be impulsive. Don't do anything rash. First, let's see if the murderer left any clues."
"Father, we must find that murderer. We must. He dared to lay his hands on my woman. Luckily, Wu 'er was chaste and fought back with all her might, so he didn't succeed. I didn't think that she would lose her life because of this. We must skin that thief alive!" Huangfu Yu roared with a sinister expression.
At this time, his ferocious gaze actually swept past Long Chen.
Long Chen suddenly had a bad feeling.
He began to analyze carefully.
"Last night, I saw Huangfu Yu following Wu 'er. At that time, his expression didn't seem right. Clearly, they had an argument. Before, I thought that Huangfu Yu was the murderer, but now it seems that the murderer really did want to get close to Wu' er, but she resisted. If they were engaged, why would Wu 'er resist and even be killed for resisting?"
This was a question that Long Chen didn't understand, but when Huangfu Yu's gaze swept past him, he suddenly understood.
He had inadvertently seen Huangfu Yu's murderous intent towards him.
Long Chen instinctively knew that Huangfu Yu's target was actually him.
He began to carefully recall what happened in the side chamber. In the side chamber, Huangfu Yu had suffered a crushing defeat at his hands, so he must have held a grudge against him. Back then, Wu 'er also saw him lose. This Huangfu Yu was arrogant and had such a bad temper. He might have had some conflict with Miss Wu' er. Their engagement was probably forced by the Huangfu family … "
"… If that's the case, Miss Wu 'er might not like Huangfu Yu. Huangfu Yu was defeated yesterday, so he was naturally in a bad mood. The two of them must have had an argument, and then Huangfu Yu wanted to use force, but the other party wouldn't allow it. If she wasn't careful, Huangfu Yu might have killed her …"
"After killing her, Huangfu Yu was thinking about how to cover it up. Then, he thought of me and wanted to use this to frame me."
If that was the case, Wu 'er's death had a lot to do with Long Chen's arrival. Of course, with their personalities, if they continued to interact with each other, there would be such a conflict sooner or later.
As soon as Long Chen figured this out, Huangfu Yu flew into a rage. As Huangfu Fengyun pulled him, he rushed to Wu 'er's side and cried bitterly. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked at Wu' er's tightly clenched hand. "What is this?"
As he spoke, he took out the item. It was a piece of cloth that seemed to have been torn from the bed.
"When Wu 'er died, she held onto this thing so tightly. She must have wanted to tell us something," Huangfu Yu said agitatedly.
Huangfu Yu said excitedly. He unfolded the cloth, and a golden divine dragon was embroidered on it.
"Dragon? Why is it a dragon?"
Huangfu Yu was startled. At this moment, Huangfu Fengyun's face darkened. He took the cloth and looked at it carefully. When he raised his head, his eyes seemed to have turned into two sharp swords that shot towards Long Chen.
"Dragon … Dragon … Long Chen, this is clearly referring to you. Wu 'er still held onto this thing in her hand before she died. She's trying to tell us that you're the murderer, right?"
Huangfu Fengyun's words caused a huge uproar in the room. Those who were still beside Long Chen retreated and surrounded Long Chen. They looked at Long Chen cautiously.
Their eyes were filled with hatred.
They had all heard about Long Chen's background, especially the fact that Long Chen had defeated the number one genius of the Huangfu Clan in the side chamber.
At this moment, Huangfu Fengyun's face turned ashen. He laughed coldly. "Bastard, you think you can do this without anyone knowing? Who would have thought that Wu 'er would use this method to warn us before she died? Wu' er was alive and well all this time. She even danced for you last night. You must have been infatuated with her beauty. You brat, you bastard, you actually dared to do such a thing in my Huangfu Clan."
"So it's you! Bastard! Even if I, Huangfu Yu, lose my life today, I'll tear you into a thousand pieces and make you unable to reincarnate."
Huangfu Yu's expression turned crazy. He wanted to pounce on Long Chen, but Huangfu Fengyun knew that he wasn't Long Chen's match, so he hastily stopped him.
Before Long Chen could say anything, Huangfu Qi, who was standing next to him, anxiously said, "Nonsense! My big brother isn't that kind of person. Furthermore, he was with Qiqi the entire time last night. He only went back late at night. I've been here for four hours now."
"Four hours isn't enough for him to commit crimes? His residence is only a lake away from here. With his strength, he can easily come over. Bastard!" A powerful aura erupted from Huangfu Fengyun's body as he approached Long Chen step by step.
"Today, I'll send you to hell on behalf of my son and my poor daughter-in-law."
Long Chen had been calm the entire time. After Huangfu Fengyun finished speaking, he indifferently said, "It's just a piece of cloth. Anyone who wants to frame me can just tear it off and place it in the hands of the deceased. If that's the case, then I have nothing to say. It's just that the Huangfu Clan's intelligence is only at this level."
Long Chen knew who the culprit was. He looked at Huangfu Yu and said, "You can fool everyone, but you can't fool me. This is the first time I, Long Chen, have seen such a deranged person like you. You acted very well, I admire you."
The entire Huangfu Clan, with the exception of Huangfu Qi, hated Long Chen. They were all prepared to make a move. Trying to explain to them was futile, so Long Chen didn't want to waste any effort. In fact, he wasn't afraid of this trouble at all because he knew that the strongest person in the Huangfu Clan hadn't arrived yet.
Huangfu Fengchen only needed to know who the culprit was.
"What do you mean? After being exposed, you still want to quibble? You killed an important member of the Huangfu Clan. Today, I don't care whether you're the master's guest or not. You must pay with your life. Go to hell!" After saying that, Huangfu Fengyun's strength at the second level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm exploded.
Huangfu Fengyun was one of the two masters at the second level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm in the Huangfu Clan. He was one of the famous masters in the Divine Wushu Sage Dynasty. In the Huangfu Clan, he was second only to the master of the Huangfu Clan. He had a very high reputation, so no one thought it would be a problem for him to catch a kid.
After all, they weren't even at the same level in terms of seniority.
"If you dare touch my big brother, I won't call you uncle anymore," Huangfu Qi said angrily.
