This place is the most secret place of the Zhaoxing Division, where news from all over the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm gathers.
The secret room was similar to an antique study room. Lin Bai walked straight to the chair and sat down.
On the desk in front of him, a light naturally lit up, and a woman's shadow appeared inside.
"I've seen the sword-wielding master." This is the weapon spirit in the secret room of the Zhaoxing Division's archives, Miss Wuchang.
"Miss Wuchang, could you please retrieve the files from Qi Jue City in Qitian Sect's territory?" Lin Bai said calmly.
Miss Wuchang's expression froze when she heard this, and after a while she said: "The authority is sufficient, sir, please wait a moment."
Not long after, scrolls appeared one after another on the table in front of them, but there were not many, only about twenty or thirty.
Lin Bai picked up the file and opened it one by one and looked at it carefully!
"Qijue City is located in the territory of Qitian Sect and belongs to one of the nine sects of Qitian. It was jointly founded by seven extraordinary heroes who destroyed the Jiuyou Demon Palace 100,000 years ago."
"The warriors living in Qijue City are not only the descendants of these seven extraordinary heroes, but also the disciples of Qijue City!"
"The seven skills in the city are divided into Dan Jue, Formation Jue, Poison Jue, Sword Jue, Puppet, Weapon Refining, and Talisman Making."
"The top of the seven paths is Qijue, so it is called Qijue City..."
"..."
The Zhaoxing Division is spread throughout the Eastern Territory of the Demon Realm, collecting all the news in the Eastern Territory of the Demon Realm and sending it back to the secret room of Chu State's archives.
However, the largest area of the Zhaoxing Division's influence is in the Chu Kingdom. In the territories outside the Chu Kingdom, although the Zhaoxing Division also has warriors, there is not much information collected.
For example, in the territory of Qitian Sect, there are only twenty or thirty files on Qijue City. For a top sect, these files are very few.
Moreover, most of the chapters in the dossier are about introducing the inheritance and rise of Qijue City. This information is actually of little value.
After reading it, Lin Bai put down the file and said, "Miss Wuchang, retrieve the file on the Divine Light Sword Technique of Qijue City."
Miss Wu Chang's expression was slightly dull for a moment, "The authority is sufficient, please wait a moment."
Immediately, two more files appeared on the desk.
Lin Bai picked up the first file and opened it. It read, "The Divine Light Sword Technique is a secret that is not taught in Qi Jue City. Only the core disciples of Qi Jue City can practice it outstandingly."
"This technique was created by 'Lu Wei', the ancestor of Qijue City's swordsmanship. The swordsmanship is famous for its swiftness and speed. When it reaches its peak, it can kill people invisible."
"This is the miraculous swordsmanship that all disciples of the kendo lineage in Qijue City dream of!"
"..."
After reading the first file, Lin Bai picked up the second file, which read, "In the year 9998 of the reign of Emperor Chu Liang, the suspected light sword technique of the Seven Jue City God appeared in the imperial capital of Chu State, and was executed in Zhiyun Palace of Mingyuefang.
He killed Zuo Feiyu, the holy son of Qitian Sect, and half a month later, Sun Hongxuan, the eldest son of Beidou Sect, also died under the divine light sword technique."
"The Emperor of Chu was furious and ordered His Royal Highness King Chen to take the lead, with the Zhaoxing Division and Tianji Pavilion as assistants, to jointly investigate the deaths of Zuo Feiyu and Changsun Hongxuan."
"Then, Chu Liang secretly ordered Lin Bai, the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect, to take charge of the Zhaoxing Division's sword command and assist His Royal Highness King Chen in the investigation!"
"No results so far."
The information in the second file refers to the news that the Seven Jue City Divine Light Sword Technique appeared in the imperial capital.
However, Zhao Xingsi was stricter and did not state that this was the Divine Light Sword Technique. Instead, he used the word "suspicious".
What made Lin Bai dumbfounded was that... he was actually included in this file and was recorded by the Zhaoxing Division.
After reading these two files, Lin Bai frowned slightly. There was not much valuable information in the files.
Lin Bai's eyes narrowed and he pondered a little, "Miss Wuchang, retrieve the files of Lu Shulin from Qijue City."
Miss Wuchang looked dull after hearing this, and after a while she said, "The authority is sufficient. Please wait a moment, sir."
A file was placed in front of Lin Bai.
Lin Bai picked it up and opened it and read: "Qi Jue City Lu Shulin, a descendant of the Lu family of Qi Jue City swordsmanship, a hundred years ago, he briefly served as the Holy Son of Qi Jue City. Later, when he was traveling, he met a woman and fell in love with her.
"
"Three years later, he returned to Qijue City with his daughter, hoping to get married to her because she was now pregnant with Liujia."
"After a secret investigation by Qijue City, it was discovered that this woman once had extremely close contacts with the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and her father is a remnant of the Nine Nether Demon Palace."
"Qi Jue City refused and wanted to put the woman to death together with the child in her belly."
"Lu Shulin knew that it was difficult to have both loyalty and righteousness. Between the sect and his wife and children, he chose his wife and children."
"I took this girl out of Qijue City overnight. I was discovered by Qijue City and sent strong men to chase her. However, Lu Shulin's sword skills were extraordinary and he fought his way out of the siege. He escaped from Qijue City and has been missing since then."
"After Lu Shulin betrayed Qi Jue City, the position of Holy Son of Qi Jue City was taken by Lu Qingjun, a member of the Swordsman lineage and the Lu family."
Lin Bai's pupils shrank slightly, although Lu Qingjun also told Lin Bai the news about Lu Shulin.
But after all, Lu Qingjun wanted to protect Lu Shulin's name and didn't say the matter so cruelly.
According to Lu Qingjun, Lu Shulin left Qi Jue City with his wife and children, and it was considered a peaceful exit.
However, according to the files of the Zhaoxing Division, Qi Jue Cheng intended to kill the woman and the child in her belly. Lu Shulin was forced to fight out of Qi Jue City with a sword.
Lin Bai's face hardened. Lu Shulin's cultivation strength was really extraordinary. There were so many masters in Qi Jue City, and he actually had the strength to lead people out of the siege.
"Is this something that happened a hundred years ago?" Lin Bai narrowed his eyes and noticed the time mark. This was something that happened a hundred years ago.
Regarding Qi Jue City, Lin Bai read many files, but found nothing fishy. It seemed that the clues were broken here again.
"Then it seems that the only way to start is with Miss Lanyue!"
Lin Bai shrank his eyes, stood up and left the secret room of the file.
As soon as I walked out, I saw a familiar figure standing at the door. It was Zhu Mo, the commander of the Zhaoxing Division!
"I've seen the Sword Master." Zhu Mo looked at Lin Bai walking out of the secret room with a smile, bowed his hands and said respectfully.
The sword bearer of the Zhaoxing Division was the person who inspected the Zhaoxing Division on behalf of the Chu Emperor.
According to official rank, Lin Bai's status as the swordsman was superior to that of the commander of the Zhaoxing Division.
"Why are Lord Zhu Mo here?" Lin Bai asked with a smile. He came to Zhaoxing Division today and did not inform Zhu Mo, but Zhu Mo was waiting for him at the door.
"Shengzi Lin Bai." Zhu Mo looked helpless and sighed, "I have been disturbed by the deaths of Zuo Feiyu and Changsun Hongxuan."
"I heard someone from below came to report that you arrived at the Zhaoxing Division and entered the secret room of the files. I thought you might have a clue."
"That's why I came here to wait."
Zhu Mo looked slightly helpless, with tiredness in his eyes. He was obviously very distressed by the deaths of these two saints.
Lin Bai smiled softly, "I do have some clues, but I don't have enough evidence..."
