"Qingfang Street's Liu Donggang. At that time, he had just finished drinking in a restaurant. He was accompanied by several people who competed with you in the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion. Among them, two died and two were seriously injured.
That killer's main target was Xia Yunqiang. Otherwise, none of them would have survived. "
Tang Zhanfei casually explained.
"Qingfang Street's Liu Donggang. Is he behind that alley?"
Ziyue suddenly pointed to the alley and asked softly.
Only then did he discover that there were several figures on the roof quickly investigating something. Among them, there were several tracking experts from the Law Enforcement Hall.
"That's right."
Nodding affirmatively, Tang Zhanfei said, "Someone discovered that he escaped from the roof. That's why the gang sent us to investigate this street.
Did junior brother find something? "
While speaking, Tang Zhanfei suddenly froze and lowered his voice.
"I might know who the killer is."
Ziyue said in a low voice.
"Who?"
Tang Zhanfei's body shook and his eyes widened.
"That's right, senior brother. Apart from Xia Yunqiang, who else died?"
Ziyue changed the topic and said.
Tang Zhanfei's expression was also alert. His eyes quietly swept around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he signaled Vivian to let Ziyue follow him. While walking, he said, "Jiang Yuankun, Li Yinru, Wu Junhao and Zhang Fang are seriously injured."
Slightly nodding, Ziyue didn't care. Soon, he and Tang Zhanfei arrived at a corner.
"Now, the gang hates this killer to the bone. Just by providing clues, you can get five hundred contribution points. If you can confirm the killer's identity, then you can get two thousand points.
Plus, the killer is becoming more and more rampant. I estimate that the contribution points will increase.
Junior brother, are you sure you know who the killer is?
If you are sure, don't tell me. Let's go find Hall Leader Zhao together. Hall Leader Zhao is in charge of the Internal Affairs Hall. He is very fair. He will certainly make sure that the contribution points fall into your hands. "
Tang Zhanfei calmed down at this time and said quickly.
Ziyue looked at Tang Zhanfei in surprise. It was not his style to be so generous and upright.
"I just know my limits. Junior Brother's future growth potential will definitely surpass mine. With these two thousand contribution points, your development will definitely be much faster.
As for me, even if I have an extra two thousand contribution points, I still won't be able to break through to the Inner Force Realm. It's better for me to hug Junior Brother's thigh tightly so that I can have more opportunities in the future.
Furthermore, I know that one of the ten most outstanding disciples among you will have the opportunity to join a cultivation clan.
The evaluation criteria was the contribution points.
No matter how greedy Senior Brother is, he won't take away Junior Brother's great opportunity. "
Tang Zhanfei said seriously with a solemn face.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Even if he didn't know how much of his cheap senior brother's words were true and how much was false, the other party was indeed thinking for him at this moment. Ziyue naturally had to accept this favor.
…
Half an hour later, Ziyue and Tang Zhanfei stood directly in a reception hall at the headquarters of the Scorching Sun Gang.
"You said that you know who the assassin is?"
A middle-aged martial artist with a somewhat scholarly figure looked at Ziyue with a somewhat sharp gaze.
This was a type of mental deterrence that belonged to the peak of third-rate. When an ordinary person was under such deterrence, they might not even be able to speak. Naturally, it was impossible for them to lie in front of such a person.
This was also a method that most experts liked to use.
"That's right. I only had suspicions before. But now, I can finally confirm the assassin's identity."
Ziyue raised his eyebrows, as if he was not affected by the deterrence at all. He said with a calm face.
In fact, he already had some suspicions when Chen Qingyun first made a move.
When the news of Jiang He's death spread to the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, most people were shocked and all gathered in front of those who knew about it.
However, Chen Qingyun, who was in the Courtesan Pavilion of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, was the last to appear.
Although he had some suspicions at that time, he was with Miss Yue 'e after all, so he could not be sure.
But now, he saw Chen Qingyun walk out of the dead end with his own eyes. Coupled with the coincidental assassination incident, he knew that the assassin escaped through the roof. Naturally, he could confirm the assassin's identity in an instant.
"Who is it?"
Zhao Lei, Hall Master Zhao quickly asked.
"The White-Clothed Swordsman, Chen Qingyun."
Ziyue said in a deep voice.
"It's him?"
"How could it be him?"
Zhao Lei and Tang Zhanfei exclaimed at the same time.
…
Wind Cloud Residence. It was said that it was an elegant name given to his residence by a scholar who called himself Wind Cloud Resident.
Later, because of the beautiful environment, the unique arrangement of the rockery and flowing water, and even the pleasant atmosphere, it became famous. Often, scholars with similar interests would come to Wind Cloud Residence one after another to recite poems and discuss elegant and humorous matters.
However, twenty years ago, Wind Cloud Resident was reported to be in prison because he openly discussed the state affairs. Since then, Wind Cloud Residence had been abandoned.
It was not until a few years later that someone bought it from the government.
Now, it had fallen into the hands of the White-Clothed Swordsman, Chen Qingyun.
The moment Ziyue revealed the identity of the assassin, even though Zhao Lei was also suspicious, he was very decisive and led a group of people straight to Wind Cloud Residence.
As someone who knew the truth, Ziyue naturally followed suit.
Of course, there was a middle-aged constable who also had the surname Zhao with them. It was said that he was one of the constables of Wujiang County and his strength was also at the level of inner force.
Dong dong dong!
There was a series of knocks on the door.
Soon, a person who looked like a housekeeper opened the door. When he saw Ziyue and the others, his expression changed and he asked in surprise, "Who are you people?"
"I'm a constable of the government. I have a case that I want to ask your master, Lu Qingyun, about."
Constable Zhao stood out and said politely.
Chen Qingyun's name in the entire Wujiang County was too well-known.
Even though Ziyue had already identified him as the murderer of the three heroes of the Scorching Sun Gang, he did not dare to be too presumptuous.
After all, there was always a possibility.
What if he was not the murderer?
A third-rate master, and a twenty-year-old one at that, was not someone he could offend.
"I'll go ask for instructions first."
The housekeeper replied in a low voice and closed the door with a bang.
"Something's not right."
Which one of the people present was not experienced in the Jianghu?
Naturally, they saw the housekeeper's strange behavior clearly.
"Break it open!"
Zhao Lei shouted. Soon, two disciples rushed out quickly. They had no place to use their weapons and slashed down fiercely.
Boom!
Boom!
There were two consecutive sounds and the door was slammed open.
"Chen Qingyun, you've committed a crime. Come with us."
Constable Zhao had also confirmed that there was something fishy about the other party. He shouted and rushed in first.
Immediately after, more than ten of the sect's experts rushed into Wind Cloud Residence.
"The Scorching Sun Gang is on business. Don't act rashly. Otherwise, you'll be killed without mercy."
After a series of shouts, the figures rushed in one after another.
Ziyue naturally followed closely behind.
The first thing that caught his eye was a screen. On the screen was an ink painting of mountains and rivers. It was quite grand and vigorous. Beyond the screen, there was a courtyard that looked like a manor with rockery, flowing water, swaying willow trees, and fragrant flowers.
From afar, he saw the housekeeper rushing to the backyard. As he ran, he shouted, "Young Master, run!"
"You're courting death!"
A long sword, like a sharp sword, quickly pierced out.
Just as it was about to pierce the housekeeper's back, a stone suddenly shot out rapidly.
Clang!
With a loud bang, the longsword was broken. Even the Radiant Sun Faction martial artist who was holding the sword spat out a mouthful of blood. He had been injured by the internal energy contained in the stone.
"I didn't expect to be exposed so quickly. I thought I hid it well."
A white-clothed figure with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes walked out from the backyard and muttered to himself.
Beside him, there was an old man and a strong man. Two figures that looked very similar.
"It's good that you admit it."
Constable Zhao shouted, but he didn't dare to move a muscle.
Although he had the strength of the internal force realm, he was far from being able to match up to Chen Qingyun, who was already a third-rate expert.
Not to mention, there were two experts beside him who did not look weak.
"Liao Yuansheng, Liao Qing … Aren't you and your father disciples of the Tie Yi Sect? Why did you follow Chen Qingyun and attack the Scorching Sun Gang?"
Zhao Lei's body trembled as he took a deep breath and asked.
The Tie Yi Sect was destroyed by the Nine Seals Sect.
The Tie Yi Sect disciples were either dead or had fled.
The Liao father and son had mysteriously disappeared after the great battle three years ago. Who would have thought that when they reappeared, they would be standing on the opposite side of the Scorching Sun Gang?
"Leader Zhao, I didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance the moment we returned to Wujiang County."
Liao Yuansheng raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "As for the Tie Yi Sect disciples?
We stopped being them a long time ago.
Now, we and Brother Chen are the Di Family's retainers.
We're not afraid to tell you that the Di Family has set their sights on Wujiang County.
If the Scorching Sun Gang knows what's good for you, you might be able to survive for a while. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape the fate of destruction. "
"The Di Family?
Heavenly Spirit Lord, the Di Family of cultivators? "
Zhao Lei took a deep breath, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.
He naturally knew that the Di Family was one of the two major cultivator families in the Heavenly Spirit Lord.
In recent years, they had been developing rapidly and were in the midst of expansion.
There were already a few counties in the Heavenly Spirit Lord. Apart from the government, the rest were already under the Di Family's control.
It was obvious that the Di Family had set their sights on Wujiang County this time.
"I didn't expect the White-Robed Swordsman Chen Qingyun to publicly reject the Heavy Sword Sect's recruitment because he had already climbed up the social ladder.
However, a mere retainer doesn't make me think highly of him. "
Suddenly, a figure slowly walked in from behind Ziyue and the others as he spoke in a low and hoarse voice.
