The news that Ge Hong's body was found swept through the entire Donghuang City like a storm. At this time, it was approaching the Nine Peaks Competition of the Juque Sword Sect, and many masters came to watch the ceremony in Donghuang City.

When they heard this news, many people found it unbelievable. Ge Hong was not only the second master of Juque Sword Sect, but also ranked sixth on the Dragon Ranking. In Cangxuan Sea, there were very few people who could kill him.

What's more, the place where his body was found was near the Juque Sword Sect.

For a time, all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, and a feeling of self-danger spread among everyone in Donghuang City.

In the main hall of the first peak of Juque Sword Sect, Ge Hong's body was placed in the center of the hall. All the principals of each peak were present. Gu Yunfei's face was gloomy and he fought with his back to everyone. Although he did not speak, everyone present felt a depressing atmosphere.

.

Ning Yu rarely showed a serious expression, and so did Lin Xiao beside him. The two looked at each other, feeling a little incredible.

After Lin Xiao returned to the Seventh Peak, he told Ning Yu about the attack by Ge Hong. He was sure that Ge Hong had indeed escaped alive, but now Ge Hong was dead.

What happened? Who had the strength to kill Ge Hong?

Suddenly, Gu Yunfei slammed the table, and the wooden table that had been placed in the main hall for more than a hundred years instantly fell into pieces. A wave of air spread out with him as the center, and some disciples were caught off guard and almost overturned.

Gu Yunfei turned around, his eyes already filled with bloodshot eyes. He gritted his teeth and said: "If we find out the murderer, no matter who it is, I will cut him into pieces!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sky outside suddenly darkened, and the originally sunny sky was gradually shrouded in dark clouds.

This is the power of powerful people in the Divine Sea Realm. If their emotions fluctuate violently, it can affect the celestial phenomena.

In a short period of time, the Juque Sword Sect lost two masters, Wang Chong and Ge Hong, in succession. Both of them were masters of the Divine Sea Realm. They could be said to be the mainstay of the sect. Every time one master of this realm is missing, it would be a big loss for them.

The entire sect suffered an immeasurable loss.

What's more, the Nine Peaks Competition is about to happen, but the second master of the sect is suddenly killed. This incident will definitely become a joke in the mouth of others. Gu Yunfei originally planned to hold a righteous event to show the strength of the sect and continue to consolidate his righteous path.

The identity of the first person, but now it has become a joke that people all over the world come to watch.

Before the grand event even started, the second master of his family was brutally killed.

Gu Yunfei's eyes lingered on everyone present, and finally he looked at Lin Xiao and asked coldly: "Lin Xiao, you went to Donghuang City a few days ago. Did you meet Master Ge Peak on the way?"

Lin Xiao immediately understood that Gu Yunfei was suspicious of him. He was even sure that he was ambushed by Ge Hong that day. Gu Yunfei must have known about it, and maybe he had arranged it.

At this time, Lin Xiao would naturally not admit: "I haven't seen it."

"You really haven't seen it before?"

This questioning made Lin Xiao angry. It was clear that they were following him and plotting against him first, and now they looked like they wanted to find him to blame.

Lin Xiao immediately asked Gu Yunfei: "The sect master said that he is doubting Lin Xiao?"

Gu Yunfei said nothing, but his eyes said everything.

He was doubting Lin Xiao, because he was the one who arranged for Ge Hong to intercept and kill Lin Xiao on his way back. Now Lin Xiao is standing here safe and sound, but Ge Hong has turned into a corpse. It must be said that Lin Xiao killed

The possibility of Ge Hong is indeed not small.

Lin Xiao then asked: "I would like to know why the sect master knows that the disciple has been to Donghuang City. Could it be that the sect master has been monitoring the disciple?"

Everyone was whispering nonsense in their hearts. Ever since Lin Xiao returned to the Juque Sword Sect, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the Seventh Peak overtly or covertly. He was under surveillance, and it had long been an open secret among the upper echelons of the sect.

But at this moment, Lin Xiao exposed it in public, which made Gu Yunfei feel a little embarrassed in terms of face. The head of a dignified sect actually spied on his disciples. If this matter was spread out, what kind of behavior would it be?

"How could this sect do such boring things?" Gu Yunfei really wanted to slap Lin Xiao to death. Ever since he entered the Juque Sword Sect, he had caused him trouble one after another.

First, he killed Zhou Tong, a close disciple he was optimistic about, and then stole the treasure in Qingyun Tower, which cost him a huge price. Not to mention that the five-hundred-year-old demon pill and a fragmented picture were not recovered yet. Gu Yunfei knew that

I'm afraid these two things will never come back.

Now, Lin Xiao was contradicting him again and again, completely ignoring his status as the sect leader. What Gu Yunfei could not accept the most was for others to challenge his authority in public.

Everyone felt that Gu Yunfei was suppressing the murderous intention. At this time, Zhang Bai from Sanfeng Peak stood up and said: "Sect Master, the top priority is to investigate the murderer."

While speaking, Zhang Bai also sent a message to Gu Yunfei: "Sect Master, I heard that all the members of the Seventh Peak are practicing and want to achieve good results in the Nine Peaks Competition, so I think it is better to send them to investigate the murderer.

Disrupt their deployment."

Gu Yunfei weighed the two and said hypocritically: "Now the disciples from all the peaks are preparing for the Nine Peaks Competition, and most of the disciples who are not participating are sending out invitations. We really can't spare anyone to investigate."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Xiao again and said: "Lin Xiao, you are familiar with the East Imperial City area. Your Seventh Peak will be responsible for investigating this matter. You must find the real culprit before the Nine Peaks Competition, otherwise

, deal with the door rules!”

Lin Xiao sneered and said to himself that there are less than ten days left for the Nine Peaks Competition. You are clearly targeting our Seventh Peak. However, Lin Xiao also knows that nothing will be changed if they continue to argue. They can only deal with this matter first.

But what should be said, Lin Xiao still said: "The Seventh Peak can go investigate, but time is urgent, and I can't guarantee that the real culprit will be found before the Nine Peaks Competition."

After saying that, he gave Ning Yu a look, and the two of them left the hall without looking back.

"Sect Master, they are so rude, they should be punished for the crime they committed above!" Zhang Bai said immediately. After Ge Hong's death, he naturally became the second-in-command of the sect, and he was now much more active than before.

Gu Yunfei said: "They can't be arrogant for long. You all should go back and prepare your respective disciples. After this Nine Peaks Competition, I will remove the Seventh Peak from our Juque Sword Sect!"

Gu Yunfei snorted coldly and disappeared from the main hall.

On the way back to the seventh peak, Ning Yu asked for Lin Xiao's opinion and said: "Lin Xiao, I'm going to investigate this matter. You should seize the time to practice with everyone."

Lin Xiao shook his head and said: "Gu Yunfei's purpose is to disrupt our cultivation plan. Even if I don't go to investigate, he will find other reasons to interfere with us, so I will go this time. Uncle Master, you stay on the mountain.

Everyone protects the law."
