Barrier of Light

"check!"

"Check carefully for me!"

The Holy Inquisitors spread out and searched the port where the Gu family mission was parked. In order to ensure nothing was missed, the cloud ship hanging above the port also lowered a light similar to [Enchantment]. For these actions, Gu Nanfeng just He waved his hand to indicate it was okay.

Every extraordinary person in the Gu family mission was summoned.

Yao Jin checked one by one...

[Guangmingjian] completely failed. After the glow mark dimmed, it never appeared again.

Yao Jin could only identify people based on their wounds, but this search was a failure. No one in the Gu family's delegation was injured... let alone an arrow wound on the shoulder.

in his knowledge.

There are only a few people in the entire Five Continents who can eliminate the arrow wounds of the [Red Phoenix Crossbow] in just one night!

Not to mention, the escaping target has been tracked by Yun Chuan... How long has it been since he escaped to the docking port? Even if the conversation with the Gu family delays for some time, there is no way he can recover from his injuries!

If not in the mission, he must be hiding in the cabin.

After Yao Jin checked the members of the mission, he immediately set off to participate in the search of the port of call. He had a strong foreboding in his heart.

Half a day passed.

The sun rises at dawn and reaches the blazing noon.

This absurd search came to an end. The previously aggressive Holy Judges fell silent one by one. They gathered their teams and returned to Yao Jin.

The sun is burning.

Yao Jin, who was thin and frail, looked as pale as paper.

"Has the investigation been completed?" Gu Nanfeng asked.

"...Finished."

Yao Jin's voice was hoarse: "Young Master Gu, this matter is a misunderstanding."

"laugh."

Luo Yu on the side couldn't help but laugh.

Yao Jin clenched his fingers, but had nothing to say.

"Now that the investigation is over, what are you still doing here?"

Gu Nanfeng said calmly: "Remember to tell the great elder of the temple that when I arrive in Guangming City tomorrow, I will see him to apologize in person."

Yao Jin opened his mouth and finally swallowed back those useless words of apology.

He saw Luo Yu's sarcastic smiling face, and all the veins on his forehead were bulging... This was the first time in his long gloomy life that he had suffered such humiliation.

Until leaving the docking port, Yao Jin didn't understand which part of the problem had gone wrong.

…

…

After the Holy Inquisitor left, the shadow of the cloud ship hovering over Gu's giant ship gradually dissipated.

Under the huge shadow, the port of call was depressing.

At this moment, the sky finally became clear, and the night watchmen of the Gu family were also busy... Today was already busy with trivial matters, and they needed to deal with a lot of items for the westward journey. As a result, Yao Jin and others interfered with it, which delayed half a day. The next trip Need to be postponed again.

"Young Master, those few words you just said were so relieving!"

Luo Yu lay down in front of the railing and said cheerfully: "This bitch named Yao looked like a dead person when he left!"

Gu Nanfeng looked at the departing figures of the Holy Judges and hummed softly.

He suddenly said: "So who was the person who sent you to Ghent last night?"

This sentence was not meant for Luo Yu.

Among the Gu family's night watchmen, Zhong Fan slowly stood up.

He looked a little pale, but the arrow wound on his shoulder had healed. After Gu Shen used the fire of vitality to remove the "Mark of Light" last night, the wound scabbed off in just tens of seconds, which was like a miracle!

"Lord Nanfeng, I once told you...at the Ice Sea Ruins, the advance team encountered an 'evil ghost' of unknown origin."

When Zhong Fan escaped to the port of call, it was too urgent.

That one came out just now.

He didn't have time to talk to Gu Nanfeng anymore...

At this moment, he slowly told what happened last night.

After hearing this, Luo Yu hated the iron and said: "You kid, you seem to be quite smart on weekdays, why do you do such stupid things without saying a word? Do you know that if that 'evil ghost' hadn't rescued you, you would have It’s already a corpse!”

"I……"

Zhong Fan sighed.

He knew last night that he was acting impulsively.

"This matter is in the past, so there is no need to hold anyone accountable again."

Gu Nanfeng was as gentle as ever. He patted Fatty Luo on the shoulder and signaled the latter not to be angry. He asked softly: "You mean... the 'evil ghost' you met has the power of fire. Just use it." Will your injuries be repaired in ten minutes?"

"yes."

Zhong Fan said with a solemn expression: "He also pulled out the so-called [Guangmingjian] mark easily, which is simply miraculous... Yao Jin could not have guessed that there is someone in this world who can scatter the [Red Phoenix Crossbow] I found all the thousands of rays of spiritual light and pulled them out instantly. In order to lure Yao Jin away, the evil ghost senior specially left a mark and asked me to destroy it after arriving at the port of call."

Thinking back to last night's scene.

He couldn't help but ask: "Lord Nanfeng, don't you know this person?"

"Using fire, you can heal serious injuries, and your mental power is extremely outstanding..."

Gu Nanfeng recalled the titles of everyone in Dongzhou now and shook his head.

Don't talk about Dongzhou.

Looking across the entire five continents, he couldn't think of anyone who fit Zhong Fan's description.

Zhong Fan murmured: "That's strange. From his tone, it seems that he knows you and is very familiar with you..."

"Very familiar?"

Gu Nanfeng's heartstrings were touched for no reason.

He suddenly thought of a figure.

According to Zhong Fan's description, such a number one person does not exist in the Five Continents today... But if the time is pushed forward a few years, there is a very suitable candidate, but that person died in Sangzhou Cave. The volcano erupted and was completely submerged in the torrent.

In his spare time, he also joined the Nagano investigation team, trying to find the truth behind Gu Shen's death.

at last.

Gu Nanfeng had to admit this fact and then slowly accept it.

"My lord, have you thought of that person?"

Luo Yu on the side saw Gu Nanfeng in a daze and couldn't help but speak.

"They are all deceased..."

Gu Nanfeng shook his head, smiled in a self-deprecating voice, and said, "The deceased is gone. This kind of thought should be considered a delusion."

He looked at Zhong Fan and said, "What else did the evil ghost say to you?"

"He told me what to do when I arrived at the port of call."

Zhong Fan said slowly: "I followed what he said and left a ray of light. I waited until the cloud ship hovered close and the Holy Inquisitor collided with the envoy before extinguishing it... What happened after that was just as he expected, that Yao I choose to search by force."

In the end, there will naturally be no results.

After hearing this, Luo Yu couldn't help but sigh: "This evil ghost is really good at calculating. Yao Jin is definitely not a good person... If you hadn't calculated the timing so accurately, it would have been difficult for him to suffer such a big loss. "

[Guangmingjian] The glow goes out just right!

At that time, Yao Jin had only one choice left... to search hard.

As long as he chases him to the port of call, he is bound to have a conflict with the Gu family mission!

"not that simple."

Gu Nanfeng suddenly said: "If he just wants Yao Jin to suffer, why would he let you run around all night and come here at sunrise..."

Luo Yu was stunned for a second, and then he understood what the young master meant.

"He is using the Gu family's help to delay Yao Jin."

Gu Nanfeng said calmly: "The chief judge has deliberately warned that none of the five Nagano families and the three major offices need to intervene in the 'Uto case'. The third judge who fled has brought a lot of Nagano's secrets with him... The chief judge It was impossible to allow him to live, and there was only one explanation for this arrangement. Nagano was already convinced that someone was going to kill him."

Zhong Fan said in disbelief: "So what you mean is..."

Gu Nanfeng looked at Zhong Fan and said: "It is not easy to kill Wu Tuo. Guangming City has a thousand ways to hide him from us. And the best time to kill is now... Wu Tuo The identity had just been revealed and the 'assassin' had been brought out. Everyone thought that the farce was over. Because in their eyes, the real 'murderer' had been identified by Yao Jin."

"Yao Jin chases you, and he kills people."

"The reason why I asked you to run up until midnight was to see Yao Jin's reaction..."

"Obviously, the Holy Inquisitor let you run. From the beginning, Yao Jin didn't believe that the assassination last night was a coincidence. How could the 'assassin' who has been waiting for so long have no one behind the scenes?"

Gu Nanfeng smiled in a low voice, "And who is that person?"

Looking at Dongzhou, there is only one person who best fits the image of the "man behind the scenes" in Yao Jin's mind.

"That's me."

Gu Nanfeng sighed softly: "So Yao Jin had to lead people to search the giant ship no matter what, because he waited all night and finally waited until the target arrived at the docking port... As long as he found the 'Guangming Jian Mark' here, everything would be over. It's all over. The purpose of the Gu family mission can no longer be explained. My journey to the West has just begun and is about to end. If the mission's hidden evil becomes a fact, Xizhou will have very good reasons to refuse me to step into the light. city."

"This guy is so insidious..."

After Luo Yu listened, a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"To deal with people like Yao Jin, you have to use this method. He is indeed a person who knows me very well..."

Gu Nanfeng looked towards the inland of Ghent City and murmured: "He knew very well that even if he sent you to the mission, even if he had no time to explain, I would definitely protect him with all my strength. As for the subsequent conflicts, it was a matter of course. After knowing that Yao Jin is looking for the 'man behind the scenes', I will take advantage of the situation and act as the 'man behind the scenes'."

"So he's killing people now?"

Zhong Fan looked ugly and said, "Is there any danger?"

"Killing Uto is a dangerous thing at any time."

Gu Nanfeng said: "According to my information, the second elder of the temple, Yuan Yang, has disappeared for a long time. He must have been punished. The reason why Yao Jin was reused by the temple is because he saved the most important secret line No. 1. character... So no matter what he wants to do with Wu Tuo, he must ensure the safety of this important person. This time the huge ship of the Gu family mission was searched, but the murderer was not found, which was nothing to Yao Jin. The great elder came to apologize. , it just hurts the face and does not touch the fundamentals."

"But if Uto dies..."

"Through the incident of Secret Line No. 1, half of the 'power' he has accumulated in the temple will be dissipated, and the half that belongs to the great elder's trust will be lost."

Luo Yu followed the young master and continued: "So for such an important figure as Wutuo, Yao Jin will definitely use all his strength to protect him, either by sending him to an absolutely hidden place, or by sending experts to guard him who will never have any accidents. .”

"I have been looking for him for a long time some time ago... but there has been no news about Utuo."

Zhong Fan suddenly said: "I guess he was sent outside Guangming City?"

"Yao Jin is a soft-spoken person, and there are probably very few strong men who can listen to his orders."

Gu Nanfeng smiled and said: "But even if there is a strong man in Guangming City protecting Wutuo... it will be useless. After all, according to your description, the evil ghost can easily tear two people into pieces with one against two. He is a peerless ruthless person who has been banned."
