Chapter 10 The Terrifying Dark Moon Division
Suddenly, Zhong Lifei laughed loudly like a night owl.
Chu Fan suddenly panicked and couldn't help but step back, almost trying to escape through the door to avoid being killed and silenced by his master.
But at this moment, Zhong Lifei's expression calmed down and his voice returned to its original state.
"Do you want to laugh to death and become a teacher so that you can inherit the unspent star coins?"
"Master, don't be ridiculous! I think about it, my disciple, who else in the world besides you would go to Qingxu Palace to kill everyone?"
Now that the words were made clear, Chu Fan simply broke the casserole and asked the question.
Zhong Lifei said calmly: "Qingxu Palace has offended many people, why do you think I am the murderer?"
"Those beasts have always bullied the weak and feared the strong. It's too late to fawn over them, so how can they become enemies! And the only ones weaker than them, our Xuanwu Sect, can resist because you are in the gang!"
"So, do you think I am a hidden master of cultivation?"
"That's right. Otherwise, how would you understand the knowledge of cultivation so clearly? For ordinary martial arts practitioners, it would be great if they only know a little bit about it!"
"This is easy to explain, because I am an orphan like you. I have been wandering around since I was a child. I have interacted with people from all kinds of religions and schools. I have seen all kinds of strange things, and I know much more than ordinary people. However, knowing does not mean that you are certain.
You know how to master the secrets!"
Chu Fan was stunned, and then said without giving up: "How can there be such a coincidence in the world? You stopped everyone from going out, and everyone in the Qingxu Palace behind you died!"
"It's really a coincidence. Neighbors, including you, can all prove that I didn't have the time to commit the crime."
"This just shows that your cultivation has reached the highest level of the Three Meridians Realm, and you killed everyone in just the time it took to go to the toilet!"
"Registration place?" This time it was Zhong Lifei's turn to be stunned.
Chu Fan woke up and realized that there was no word for toilet in ancient times. He quickly changed his words and said: "My disciple is confused, I am talking about latrine!"
Zhong Lifei smiled and said: "If I want to have the terrifying strength of the Heavenly Soul Realm, why do I stay in this ghost place?"
Then, he sighed and said: "I really want to cut these beasts into pieces, but I didn't kill them."
"I don't believe it." Chu Fan shook his head.
"To tell you the truth, the murderer is neither in Xuanwu Gate nor Changshan County, nor is he even from Gushe Country!"
Chu Fan remained silent, but his eyes told Zhong Lifei that he did not believe what his master said.
Zhong Lifei sighed again: "Last night, I went to Qingxu Palace in the dark."
Chu Fan was stunned and said: "Why did you go to the crime scene?"
"Of course we are looking for evidence left behind by the murderer."
"The government has already inspected the scene, what other useful evidence can you find?"
"Don't believe it, I really found what I was looking for."
Zhong Lifei flicked his fingers, and a small object fell into Chu Fan's palm.
It was a piece of jade smaller than a fingernail, with an unusually smooth cut on one side. Chu Fan could tell at a glance that it was a fragment cut from the edge of the jade pendant.
This small fragment has half an animal claw remaining on the front. From this, it can be inferred that the entire jade pendant should be engraved with some kind of large beast or mythical beast pattern.
Zhong Lifei directly answered Chu Fan's question: "The jade pendant worn by the murderer has the mythical beast Feilian carved on it."
Feilian is said to be a mythical beast with the head of a deer and the body of a bird, and can fly in the wind.
Chu Fan asked suspiciously: "How are you sure it is Feilian and not another divine beast?"
"How many paws do you count?"
"One, two, three, four, five, six, that's not right. Isn't Fei Lian five claws?"
"There is only one place in the world marked by Six Claws Flying Lian. You must have heard of that place, right?"
When Chu Fan heard this, he trembled with fright and almost dropped the fragment in his hand to the ground.
A picture immediately appeared in his mind.
That night, Master Liu led all his disciples in a decisive battle with the murderer.
Countless attacks hit the murderer, but they didn't hurt him at all. Only a flying sword cut off the jade pendant at his waist!
With such terrifying strength and a jade pendant with such a symbol on his body, it can only mean that the murderer is from the Dark Moon Division!
The Dark Moon Division is a mysterious organization of the Zhou Dynasty. On the surface, it is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, but in fact, it directly takes orders from the emperor.
Its duty is to maintain the majestic imperial power of the Zhou Dynasty and eliminate any hidden dangers that may cause unrest.
This is a bit like the East Factory and West Factory in the Ming Dynasty. Anyone can be arrested and killed when performing tasks, and even relatives of the emperor and the kings of various vassal states are not looked down upon.
The difference is that the Dark Moon Division is not as cruel as the two factories, nor does it act as recklessly as they do. Instead, it strictly follows a set of rules, regulations and procedures.
Therefore, everyone hates and fears Dark Moon Division, but it is difficult to find any reason to do so.
What's even more terrifying is that the people who are qualified to join the Dark Moon Division are all masters in the world of immortality.
According to unconfirmed news, half of the people in the three realms of cultivation in the world are secret members of the Dark Moon Division.
Who would dare to mess with such a terrifying secret government organization?
Only then did Chu Fan realize that Qingxu Palace had been in bad luck for eight lifetimes.
If this massacre of families was caused by Dark Moon Division, let alone the small Changshan County, not even the king of Gushe Kingdom would dare to interfere with this matter.
He said with some disbelief: "Could someone pretend to be someone from the Dark Moon Division to commit such a major crime?"
Zhong Lifei said: "If it were me, I would rather pretend to be Boss Bai than dare to pretend to be Dark Moon Division."
Chu Fan was silent when he heard this.
If you pretend to be Bai Zhongfa, you may be able to survive. If you pretend to be Dark Moon Division, you may die a miserable death.
Since the establishment of the Dark Moon Division, there has been a proverb circulating in the world: I would rather go to heaven to slay an immortal or go to the sea to slay a dragon than to offend the Dark Moon Division!
Chu Fan couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Dark Moon Division actually personally massacred an unfashionable small immortal sect like Qingxu Palace. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world and losing all your prestige?"
"This is exactly what Master Wei couldn't figure out! After thinking about it for a whole day, I came up with an answer."
Zhong Lifei said slowly: "There is only one possibility. This matter is related to the Star of Light in my hand!"
"No!" Chu Fan's face turned earth-colored.
Could it be that there is a shocking secret hidden in the USB flash drive, and that Master and I have not yet set out on our journey, will it lead to competition among various forces?
Zhong Lifei seemed to realize the importance of the USB flash drive and said in a low voice: "Disciple, don't you think it's strange? As soon as I mentioned the signing of the contract to you, a man named Liu came to the door and said that other sects in the county also came to visit.
Knowing this, the news spread too quickly, right?"
"Who leaked the news in advance?"
Chu Fan was suddenly startled. He didn't care to ask about the identity of the traitor, and said in a voice: "Master, this is too scary! Why don't you accept this escort? The thing belongs to us anyway, so we can just cheat!"
"Broken the contract? Aren't you afraid of offending Boss Bai? Then he will send someone to kill us..."
As Zhongli Fei spoke, he made a wiping motion on his neck with his hand.
Chu Fan was frightened, and then suggested: "Then give the Star of Light to Boss Bai and let him go to Yiguo by himself. The worst we can do is charge less money."
"It's too late. He's already on his way to Youyi State to find out what's true. We can't catch up."
"This won't work, that won't work either, what should we do?" Chu Fan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Zhong Lifei smiled and said: "Get on the road as soon as possible, meet Boss Bai as soon as possible, and throw away this hot potato."
Chu Fan thought to himself, rather than sit at home and wait for death, it would be better to run away as soon as possible.
When the crowds are huge and you encounter danger, the probability of escaping will increase many times.
Zhong Lifei frowned: "My only worry now is your incompetent senior brothers!"
"Why don't we take everyone with us? There will be someone to look after us on the way."
"Hmph, if you let these losers follow you and I have to take care of them when they start fighting, won't I die faster?"
"Master, don't leave them alone!"
"Who said we don't care? I have already arranged a good place for them to live. We will know tomorrow."
When he said this, Zhong Lifei smiled evilly.
