Immortal Creation

"Is this all the evidence?" Zhu Xuanji came to Zhou's house.

The head of the Zhou family entertained them personally.

Zhu Xuanji got straight to the point, saying that he came immediately after hearing the attack.

"This may be the work of the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator! According to our previous guess, someone secretly let him go."

"This is an evil force lurking in the dark!"

"If we hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid the two qi-refining geniuses of my Zhou family would have died."

The head of the Zhou family looked heavy.

Zhu Xuanzhi pinched the dead ant corpse in his hand, his eyes glowed with golden light, and activated the trace-tracing technique.

He remained silent.

The head of the Zhou family looked hopeful and asked him if he had discovered anything.

Zhu Xuanji shook his head.

"Your family's evidence alone is not enough. I'll go look at other families." Zhu Xuanji said goodbye to the head of the Zhou family.

He successively visited the City Lord's Mansion, the Zheng Family, and the Ningzhuo Courtyard.

The results of the investigation did not surprise him.

The clues are there, and they are many.

The problem lies in "a lot"!

The tracing method can detect closely related things, but this close relationship can be in many aspects.

For example, from the residue of the poison that poisoned Ning Xiaohui, Zhu Xuanji found the relevant raw materials, the boy who cooked the medicine, the slave who delivered the medicine, etc.

Based on this alone, can we judge that the boy who cooked the medicine and the slave who delivered the medicine were the murderers?

cannot.

Because they decoct and deliver medicine respectively, and they are closely related to poison.

But are you sure they are not the murderers?

also can not.

Because, they may secretly administer the medicine while decoction or delivering it.

Tracing back to the source is just about finding clues.

If you really want to conduct an in-depth investigation, you have to rely on Zhu Xuanji's various interrogation methods.

But Zhu Xuanzhi planned to stop.

There were too many clues, and if he wanted to continue investigating, the energy and time involved would be frightening.

Zhu Xuanzhi was very suspicious: this was specially arranged by the murderer to delay the progress of his investigation!

Just like the previous Fire Persimmon Festival, the trap monkey acted strangely and attacked Yuan Er.

Afterwards, Zhu Xuanji traced many clues from the remains of these trap-fiery monkeys.

Are these clues useful?

Very little value.

What Zhu Xuanji likes to see is that there are only a few clues revealed under the tracing method. The fewer clues there are, the more valuable the investigation is!

But now, every piece of evidence has so many clues.

Then, the murderer's attempt to trace the source is very obvious!

However, this was also within Zhu Xuanji's expectation.

The reputation of Tracing the Source is spreading more and more widely, and many powerful individuals or forces will consciously take precautions against it.

All the skills in the world are tools to help monks better realize a certain vision.

Since it is a tool, it can be targeted.

Those who are difficult to target have always been the strongest among people, rather than excellent tools.

There are no invincible techniques, only invincible monks.

"I originally hoped that the murderer would reveal his flaws, but I thought it was a bit too good."

Zhu Xuanzhi left the four forces and decided to proceed according to the previous investigation plan.

"Perhaps, my step-by-step investigation has put pressure on the murderer. That's why these attacks were carried out in an attempt to attract my attention!"

Zhu Xuanji kept frowning.

After investigating for a while, he felt that something was not quite right or strange.

But when he thought about what was wrong specifically, he found nothing. Not only that, the weird feeling before has also dissipated.

Zhu Xuanzhi's subsequent actions disappointed all the patriarchs of the three major families.

The heads of the three families met in secret to discuss plans.

"Zhu Shenqi is really disappointing."

"Perhaps, he has found out which force did it. But due to his identity, he cannot make it public."

"you mean?"

The three clan leaders fell silent.

Although they didn’t say it clearly, they all knew it was referring to the City Lord’s Mansion!

Whether it was the last attack or this time, the City Lord's Mansion actually suffered the least losses.

No, more accurately, a blessing in disguise.

Because Meng Chong eliminated the assassins twice, his reputation soared, putting the Qi refining geniuses of the other three families firmly at a disadvantage.

"Meng Kui has gotten along well with all three of our families since he took office. This time it may not be his fault. After all, Meng Chong has always been far ahead in exploring the Immortal Palace." The head of the Zheng family said.

The head of the Ning family also analyzed: "In the last attack, I did doubt the City Lord's Mansion. But this time, the assassination was extremely intense, with the momentum of killing all the qi refining geniuses of our three families. Maybe there is really a secret force plotting something evil?"

The head of the Zhou family shook his head and sneered: "Isn't it true that none of the talented descendants of your three families have died?"

"Even if he is dead, can he find the City Lord's Mansion?"

The head of the Zhou family sighed deeply: "The Meng family is the big family of our Nandou Fairy Kingdom."

"When Meng family monks act, they are generally impulsive and have a strong temperament."

"Especially the four generals of the Meng family, all of them have made great achievements in battle and killed thousands. Not to mention the other three fierce generals, Meng Kui is also one of the four generals. He seems to be peaceful and amiable, but in fact it is all an illusion."

"Think about it, how have our three families been doing since he took office?"

"Isn't it much more repressed than the previous city lords?"

"I don't know if you two fellow Taoists have investigated Meng Kui's past battle reports. This man is better at making decisions than our Zhou family. He is nicknamed the 'Mountain Prime Minister'."

"Would such a person be easy to get along with?"

The head of the Ning family thought thoughtfully: "Now that you say so, I actually feel the same way."

"For the Lava Immortal Palace, the City Lord's Mansion was the first to discover it."

"The second is the Zhou family and the Zheng family."

"According to the intelligence gathered by our clan, we learned that the two families joined forces and privately bribed Meng Kui heavily so that he would not report it to the court."

"But if you think about it carefully, if Meng Kui had reported it immediately when he discovered it, what would have happened to us?"

"On the surface, it was the Zhou and Zheng families who took the initiative to ask him to cooperate, but was this already within his plan?"

The head of the Zheng family snorted coldly: "It's very possible!"

"Meng Kui is actually more difficult to deal with than the rest of the Meng family because he is more insidious."

"Relying on the Lava Immortal Palace, he allowed all three of our families to actively cooperate with him. He has been in charge of the Immortal City for these years, and he has been able to understand the government orders and be harmonious."

"Before, he deliberately released the news and relaxed surveillance, attracting countless casual cultivators and demon cultivators to explore the Red Flame Demon Melting Cave."

"I don't know how many people have died in these years. These people sacrificed their lives to kill countless red flame monsters, which caused the pressure in the Immortal Palace to drop sharply, and the City Lord's Mansion gradually learned about the Immortal Palace, the Red Flame Demon Melted Cave, etc. Detailed information.”

"If we really want the City Lord's Mansion to do it alone, I'm afraid all the city guards will be dead by now."

The head of the Zhou family added: "Since the birth of Lava Immortal Palace, Meng Kui has personally been in charge and suppressed the Immortal Palace with all his strength, strictly prohibiting anyone from approaching."

"snort!"

"His excuse was brilliant and high-sounding."

"In fact, his actions have completely prevented the three monks from us from entering the Immortal Palace to explore the Immortal Palace's relics."

In the past, it was very troublesome for monks from the Zhou and Zheng families to enter the Immortal Palace.

You have to climb to the top of the volcano, enter the red flame demon molten cave, and choose the correct path to enter the fairy palace inside the mountain.

In the process, they also have to face the red flame monsters along the way.

Eventually, the monks made contact with Asgard, but were unable to break through. Only those whose machine skills have been recognized by the palace spirit can enter the immortal palace.

Originally, when the Immortal Palace was born, monks from the three families could enter and exit frequently easily.

But Meng Kui's personal suppression made it impossible for the three families to contact the Immortal Palace.

Although there are no monks in the City Lord's Mansion who have entered the Immortal Palace, the three families know very well that the competitiveness of the City Lord's Mansion in this regard is far inferior to that of the Qi Refining Period.

In the competition during the Qi refining period, Meng Chong was extremely talented - this advantage was really huge!

The head of the Zhou family had a look of sincerity on his face: "At this stage, it doesn't matter whether we can find the real culprit or not. The important thing is Lava Immortal Palace!"

The other two clan leaders nodded.

The head of the Zhou family struck while the iron was hot: "Only by uniting and cooperating more closely can we possibly be able to compete with the City Lord's Mansion."

"To show my sincerity, I am willing to fully open the Gathering and Dispersing Ruyi Lingtide Formation and provide it for your family to use."

The two heads of the Ning family and the Zheng family were a little surprised.

The opening of the gathering and dispersing Ruyi Lingtide Formation was a point that the head of the Zhou family never let go of during their previous negotiations.

Unexpectedly, the two geniuses of the Zhou family were the most injured in this assassination, which prompted the head of the Zhou family to make up his mind and take out the Gathering and Dispersing Ruyi Lingtide Formation.

"Okay." The head of the Zheng family gave a high-five, "In that case, I will take out the secret of my family - sharp needle."

The head of the Ning family nodded: "Then my Ning family will take out the Ice Light Strengthening Pulse Talisman."

The Gathering and Dispersing Ruyi Lingtide Formation can help monks breathe out faster and accumulate mana.

The sharp needle can open up the Qi veins in the monk's body in advance during the Qi refining period, saving the monk the painstaking work of digging.

The ice light strong pulse talisman can cover the inside and outside of the Qi veins in the monk's body with a layer of ice light. With this layer of protection, the monk can breathe at a speed that is 30% higher than the limit without worrying about the energy being unable to support it and being washed away by the magic power and collapsing.

Three genius monks were injured one after another and needed to be nursed back to health.

They urgently need to modify other members of the team to improve their respective cultivation levels.

These assassinations made the heads of the three families aware of the cruelty of competition and how powerful and domineering their opponents were.

They put themselves down and collaborated more actively.

I'd rather be responsible for the family home.

Dining room.

"Mom, how long do we have to wait?" Ning Ji just stretched out his chopsticks to pick up some food, but his mother, Wang Lan, slapped the back of her hand with the chopsticks.

Ning Ji felt pain and jerked his palm away.

Wang Lan glared at Aizi: "What if we wait a while?"

"Your father is still in a private prison, how can you afford to eat?"

Ning Ji covered the back of his hand: "But we don't have to wait for Ning Zhuo to come over before eating. We have never had this rule before, don't we always eat first?"

Wang Lan snorted coldly: "How can we compare the present with the past?"

"Ning Zhuo is so valued by the Young Patriarch. As long as he says something nice to the Young Patriarch and begs for mercy for your father, your father will be able to come out!"
