The leaders of the four top sects were suddenly summoned to the Yunzhou on Shenxiang Cliff.
"What's wrong? You suddenly called us all over. Did something happen?"
Chi Yangbo looked at Bai Yanluo.
At this moment, Bai Yanluo's face was frighteningly gloomy.
He raised his head and glanced at Uncle Chi Yang and the others, and said in a dark voice: "Have any of the supervisors and elders you brought here found any traces of Lu Chengyan?"
Hearing this, Chi Yangbo and others frowned.
"At present, it seems that there is no... What happened? Is Lu Chengyan missing?"
The leader of Yuan Lun Dao Sect asked in a deep voice.
"No...although he is arrogant and domineering, the Lu family has set a goal for him in this competition in the Forest of Beasts."
"If he doesn't achieve that goal, he will never leave the Forest of Beasts!"
Having said this, Bai Yanluo paused and then said the next sentence.
"So... I suspect that he is most likely dead!"
When he said these words, he immediately raised his head and his sharp eyes swept across the faces of the other four leader elders like lightning.
However, he only saw four surprised faces.
Even Xia Gulin was quite shocked by this speculation.
That's Lu Chengyan!
He is a descendant of the Lu family, one of the eight inherited families!
How could anyone dare to kill him?!
"Could it be that our supervisors and elders did not inspect thoroughly enough?"
Some elders raised this speculation.
"This possibility is extremely small. Our supervisory elders will patrol back and forth from time to time. If such a big thing really happens, they will not hide it from us and not report it!"
"Could it be that he accidentally left the periphery of the Forest of Beasts and entered a deeper and more dangerous place?"
"This is basically impossible."
Bai Yanluo shook his head and said, "I said before that although he is arrogant and domineering, he still obeys the family's orders."
"Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for him to go deeper into the Forest of Beasts."
"What's more, we have also set up a forbidden air barrier. Once he walks out of the perimeter and enters the depths of the Forest of Beasts, our people will be able to sense it immediately."
"Did someone really kill him?"
The leader of Xiutian Sect frowned, as if he couldn't believe it.
Among these disciples who participated in the war, it was impossible for ordinary disciples to kill Lu Chengyan.
Not to mention the gap in strength, Lu Chengyan's background alone can scare them away.
And Lu Chengyan should not be so bored that he would go out of his way to find trouble for ordinary disciples.
As for those children from aristocratic families...
As far as they knew, there was no dispute between Lu Chengyan and the other children of the aristocratic family, and there was no reason for the other children of the aristocratic family to kill Lu Chengyan.
etc!
Bai Yanluo's eyes suddenly sparkled and he looked directly at Uncle Chi Yang.
"Lao Chi, do you know about Mo Junming's breakthrough into the Source Realm?"
Everyone present was stunned.
The name Mo Junming is not unfamiliar to them.
He can be said to be the one with the lowest cultivation level among the children of the same group of aristocratic families who were sent to the five top sects.
And I have never experienced "original energy nourishment".
Unexpectedly, he actually stepped into the source realm?
Chi Yangbo frowned, clearly hearing the implication of Bai Yanluo's words, and said calmly:
"I've known this for a long time...but what does this have to do with Lu Chengyan?"
"Have you forgotten? Yao Yuhan is Mo Junming's childhood sweetheart."
Bai Yanluo seemed a little aggressive and said: "The Lu family and the Yao family are ready to cooperate and form a marriage relationship for generations."
"And Lu Chengyan and Yao Yuhan are one of the couples among the children of this generation of aristocratic families."
"Under such circumstances, Mo Junming breaks through, and his threat and suspicion will naturally be greatly enhanced."
"Do you think... could he be the murderer of Lu Chengyan?"
Hearing this, Uncle Chi Yang couldn't help but sneered and said:
"You are really good at guessing."
"Let's not mention the grudge between the two of them. Just talk about the strength gap between the two of them. Who is more likely to kill whom?"
"Even if a sneak attack occurs, do you think that with Lu Chengyan's strength actually exceeding the second level of the Source Realm, it will be too late to react?"
Having said this, Chi Yangbo snorted coldly and said, "I can understand your eagerness."
"But please don't put such a blame on the disciples of my Wuyang League for no reason!"
Hearing this, Bai Yanluo frowned immediately.
In fact, he didn't think that Mo Junming would be the murderer of Lu Chengyan.
The main reason is because of the gap in strength.
Then there is the last suspect left...
Bai Yanluo's eyes moved to Xia Gulin, who was almost silent, and said lightly:
"Elder Xia, could you please tell me the identity of Ao Qiong?"
The other elders' eyes suddenly focused on Xia Gulin.
Ao Qiong's appearance was too sudden, and his identity was extremely mysterious.
Not only Bai Yanluo wanted to know his identity, but also other leaders such as Chi Yangbo also wanted to know.
Xia Gulin seemed to have known that the spearhead would be aimed at him, he smiled and said:
"It's not convenient for me to say the identity of the child Ao Qiong, because his identity involves... a big event!"
"A major event that even the five top sects are not qualified to interfere in!"
The pupils of Uncle Chi Yang and other elders shrank slightly.
As Xia Gulin, there was no need for him to scare them with these mysterious words.
Could it be that Ao Qiong...
"In addition, I can vouch for my personality. With his temperament, he will not kill Lu Chengyan, who is not a threat to him."
Bai Yanluo frowned slightly.
Mo Junming did not have the ability to kill Lu Chengyan.
Xia Gulin also assured that the murderer was definitely not Ao Qiong.
So how did this kid die?!
"Is it the Baili family? No, it can be said that the Baili family nowadays basically does not interfere in secular affairs at will, and they are not too concerned about the suppression of the Mohist family by the other major inheritance families."
"Then Baili Hongsheng shouldn't be the murderer..."
"As for Yao Yuhan, it is even more unlikely. Regardless of the difference in strength, if she dares to kill Lu Chengyan, once she is found out, the Lu family will definitely turn their anger on the Yao family!"
"She shouldn't do such stupid things."
The more Bai Yanluo thought about it, the more confused he became, and the more he thought about it, the more irritated he became.
Lu Chengyan died in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts. No matter who the murderer was, this matter was definitely related to his Shen Xiangya!
When the Lu family takes the blame, he will definitely be pushed out by Shen Xiangya and take the blame!
"Okay, Elder Bai, you don't have to be so anxious."
The leader of the Xiutian Sect said: "In a few days, after the competition in the Forest of Beasts is over, we will have plenty of time to find out the real culprit behind this incident."
"In addition to not being able to touch the children of the inherited family at will, we can investigate the other ordinary disciples in more detail and not let go of any clues."
When it comes to the eight major inheritance families, the other four top sects cannot easily remove themselves.
After all, Lu Chengyan died in the Forest of Beasts jointly supervised by the five top sects.
"Speaking of which, after all these years, the magic cores we collected have still not been able to react on the 'stone tablet' in the Forest of Beasts?"
The leader of the Yuan Lun Dao Sect suddenly changed the topic.
The "stone tablet" he mentioned also made the eyes of all the elders present quietly condense.
That "stone tablet" appeared in the depths of the Forest of Beasts at some unknown time, attracting the attention of the eight inheritance families and the five top sects.
But no matter how they tinkered, the "stone tablet" never responded at all. Only the magic core could make the "stone tablet" emit a faint light.
Therefore, the five top sects thought of holding a "Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts Competition" with the number of magic cores collected as the competition point.
The eight major inheritance families also readily agreed, and sent their descendants to enter the five top sects to practice respectively.
Not only to train them, but also to let the younger generations show themselves in the "Contest in the Forest of Beasts" to show the strength of their own families.
By the way, you can also collect magic cores, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.
But what disappoints the five top sects is that after so many years, the number of magic cores collected can be said to be extremely terrifying, but they still fail to cause more reactions in the "stone tablet".
"If after this competition in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts is over, the collected magic cores still cannot make the 'stone tablet' react, then from now on, this competition in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts will be cancelled."
Chi Yangbo suggested.
This proposal also made other elders nod in agreement.
What happened with Lu Chengyan also made them realize that in such a large-scale event where they are allowed to fight each other, it is easy for some accidents to happen that even they cannot bear.
In this way, the title of "The Last Competition in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts" was decided.
at the same time.
At the edge of the "forbidden air barrier".
Ye Qingchen, who was covered in [Mimetic Fog] and hid his aura, sensed the barrier in front of him and didn't know what he was thinking.
Mo Junming was fighting with monsters in another place, so he came to this place.
"There seems to be something mysterious deep in the Forest of Beasts that can react with the Dragon God's blood in my body..."
Ye Qingchen thought to himself.
Yes, it was no accident that he asked the question why the Forest of Beasts became a forbidden area.
Instead, he noticed the strange movement of the Dragon God's blood in his body.
Being able to react to the divine blood left by a true god must be extremely difficult!
"Although I have [Mimetic Fog] with me, I can't pass through the barrier, otherwise I will definitely be noticed."
Ye Qingchen whispered to himself.
"Forget it, it's not a big deal to spread your spiritual sense and feel the front. After the competition in the Forest of Beasts is over, you can find time to come here alone."
Ye Qingchen closed his eyes, and his spiritual sense passed through the "forbidden air barrier" and spread forward.
Not long after, his brow suddenly moved.
A dozen miles ahead, there was a lonely stone monument standing there.
Its existence seems out of place with the surrounding environment.
"What it is?"
Ye Qingchen was just about to focus his spiritual senses on the stone tablet to investigate, but suddenly he felt that the stone tablet was shaking violently!
At the same time, the entire Forest of Beasts trembled violently!
