The great elder opened his mouth and proposed four suspects.
Yu Lianqin, Tang Wei, Lin Bai, Li Yuanzong.
The Great Elder also said firmly that these four people are no match for Mu Huaqing alone, so if they want to kill Mu Huaqing, they can only join forces.
Li Yuanzong was a disciple of the great elder and Mu Huaqing's junior brother, so he was naturally the first to be eliminated as a suspect.
After all, no one would have imagined that Li Yuanzong would kill Mu Huaqing.
After excluding Li Yuanzong, there are only three people left, Yu Liantan, Tang Wei, and Lin Bai.
Among these three people, Yu Liantan was in the same position as the Tianshui Sect. If he promised a large amount of money and joined forces with Lin Bai or Tang Wei, it would be possible to kill Mu Huaqing.
But Mu Huaqing's body was discovered by Tang Wei and Lin Bai, which made the great elder immediately focus on these two people.
The great elder looked gloomy and said: "This is just my guess, I have no evidence to prove it."
"However... no matter who killed Mu Huaqing, once I find out, I will definitely avenge my disciple!"
Rumble!
When the great elder said the word "revenge" loudly, the power of the Taiyi Dao Fruit spread out from his body, causing the entire hall to shake violently.
The sect leader said coldly: "Mu Huaqing is a genius disciple who is fully supported by our Tianshui Sect. His death is also a huge loss to the sect. The sect will definitely investigate to the end and catch the murderer of Mu Huaqing.
, bring him to justice.”
"Lee Jae-en!" the sect leader shouted.
Among the elders below, Li Zai'en flashed out, raised his hands and said, "Please give me your instructions, sect leader."
The sect leader said: "I will leave this matter to you to investigate. You must find out the real culprit who killed Mu Huaqing in the shortest possible time. Give an explanation to the great elder, and give an explanation to all the disciples of Tianshui Sect!"
Li Zai'en glanced at the great elder, nodded and said, "Follow the order."
The sect leader said: "Great Elder, Li Zai'en went to investigate this matter personally, do you feel at ease?"
The First Elder walked to the palace without saying a word, picked up Mu Huaqing's body, and walked to the door of the palace alone, saying: "Since the sect master ordered Li Zai'en to investigate, I naturally believe in the justice of the sect. If the sect cannot give me a disciple,
If you want justice, then I have to come in person."
After saying that, the great elder had disappeared inside the palace gate.
Looking at the back of the great elder, the sect master, Li Zai'en and other elders felt chills in their hearts. They all truly sensed the great elder's anger and murderous intent.
After completing the political discussion in Fushui Hall, Li Zaien came to the Valley of Flowers where the sect leader lived.
In the Flower Valley, the sect master bent down and cut off the excess branches on the plants.
Li Zai'en came quickly, raised his hands and said, "The sect master just sent a message to Fushui Hall to ask me to come here to see you. I don't know why?"
The sect leader responded coldly: "Put everything aside now and find out who killed Mu Huaqing as quickly as possible."
"After you find out the murderer, don't make any announcement or tell the Great Elder. Tell me first!"
Li Zaien's face darkened, of course he knew the seriousness of this matter.
Mu Huaqing is not only an outstanding disciple of Tianshui Sect, but also a direct disciple of the Great Elder.
The First Elder is famous for protecting his enemies. If Mu Huaqing dies, he will not let it go. Once the murderer is found, that person will inevitably die.
Li Zai'en asked: "Does the sect master have any doubtful candidates?"
The patriarch said: "Based on the current accusations against Li Yuanzong, Lin Bai and Tang Wei are undoubtedly the most suspects."
"The Great Elder also said that he is very aware of Mu Huaqing's strength. Among the warriors in the ancient secret territory, unless the two of them join forces, no one can kill Mu Huaqing."
"Tang Wei and Lin Bai were the first to discover Mu Huaqing's body, so they naturally became the biggest suspects."
Li Zai'en's eyes flashed shrewdly and asked: "What if Lin Bai and Tang Wei really killed them? I wonder what the sect will do? Should these two be handed over to the great elder?"
The sect leader took a deep breath and said: "So, after I ask you to find out the murderer, don't tell the great elder yet!"
"If it is true that Lin Bai killed Mu Huaqing, I will also protect Lin Bai!"
The sect master was holding the scissors, and seemed to be distracted and cut off a delicate flower by mistake, which made the sect master frown and feel quite displeased.
"I understand."
Li Zaien immediately understood and bowed his hands.
The sect master said: "Give Lin Bai and Tang Wei a ticket to the Demon Refining Tower, and ask them not to leave the Demon Refining Tower until the matter is cleared up."
Li Zai'en nodded and said: "I will obey the order of the sect master."
After the sect leader made the arrangements, Li Zai'en turned around and left.
After Li Zai'en left, the sect leader straightened up from the flowers, holding the delicate flower that he had just cut by mistake in his hand, and whispered: "It's best not to be killed by you, otherwise, it will be difficult. Even if you and Da Da
The elder has a grudge, so he shouldn't kill Mu Huaqing at this juncture."
In fact, in the sect leader's mind, she also guessed that Lin Bai and Tang Wei might have killed Li Yuanzong.
It's easy to agree. Lin Bai and Li Yuanzong have already been at odds with each other, and Mu Huaqing was ordered to go to the ancient secret realm to protect Li Yuanzong. If Lin Bai wanted to kill Li Yuanzong in the ancient secret realm, and Mu Huaqing stopped him, Lin Bai might really do it.
In anger, he killed Mu Huaqing.
In terms of motivation, Lin Bai is the greatest.
But the sect leader can also see that with the potential and strength Lin Bai has shown now, he is undoubtedly the leader among the contemporary disciples of Tianshui Sect.
If Lin Bai dies, it will be a great loss to the sect.
…
The great elder returned to his residence with Mu Huaqing's body.
He did not bury Mu Huaqing's body, but froze it in the courtyard.
"Disciple pays homage to master."
At this time, Li Yuanzong came to the courtyard of the great elder with tears in his eyes and knelt down in front of the great elder.
"Yuan Zong, tell me everything that happened in the ancient secret territory in detail. Don't miss any details." The great elder's face was gloomy, his eyes were blood red, and he clenched his fists tightly. A bloody aura could not help but flow out from the air.
It permeates the body.
Obviously, the great elder was at the extreme level of rage.
"Yes." Li Yuanzong told the great elder what had happened in his mind: "On Wuwei Peak, after Lin Bai killed Qi Liang, Wu Di and others, he wanted to kill me again. In order to save me, the third senior brother
, he stopped Lin Bai and asked me to go first."
"After I escaped for a while, I hid in the forest. Unexpectedly, I was eventually found by Lin Bai."
"Subsequently, Senior Brother Mu Huaqing and Tang Wei also dared to come."
"Senior Brother Mu Huaqing fought bloody battle with Lin Bai again in order to save me."
"Lin Bai, a young man, naturally cannot be the opponent of the third senior brother. Just when the third senior brother and Lin Bai were fighting, Tang Wei suddenly attacked the third senior brother from behind, causing the third senior brother to be attacked from both sides and suffered heavy injuries.
.”
"Lin Bai pierced the heart of Third Senior Brother with one sword stroke!"
Having said this, the great elder was so angry that he was shaking all over.
Old Li Yuanzong burst into tears and said to the great elder: "Master, the third senior brother died miserably. You must avenge the third senior brother!"
