The assistant led Yu Ling around and around, and finally stopped in front of a small, dark house, and reminded him in a low voice: "This man is a Xuanwu Breaker after all, so he must be careful and safe."

Yu Ling nodded, indicating that she was ready.

The assistant communicated with the two guards in front of the door again, and then they hesitantly opened the lock and followed Yu Ling into the house with some uneasiness.

In the dim light, Yu Ling vaguely saw a disheveled man sitting in the corner, staring blankly at the beam diagonally above, as if thinking about a serious philosophical issue.

Four people came in at once, but he didn't respond at all, like a lifeless sculpture.

"When I walked ten meters away from him, he would act very violently, but he would not answer any questions I asked him. This has been the case for several days." A guard complained like a grumble.

While talking, he also verified it. Sure enough, as soon as the guard stepped into the ten-meter limit, the man who was sitting still began to dance excitedly and shouted hysterically: "Don't come over, I told you not to come over! Don't even think about harming my family.

Master! Get out, get away!"

The guard stopped in place expressionlessly and shouted: "Qiu Tan! We are here to help you!"

"Don't come here. If you don't get out, I'll do it!" Crazy Qiu Brown subconsciously made a motion to draw a knife, but his waist was empty, which made him startled slightly.

The guard stopped provoking him and silently took two steps back.

Qiu Tan suddenly returned to normal and sat down on the ground again, staring blankly at the sky.

The guard turned to look at Yu Ling and the two of them, and said impatiently: "So, what can you do to make him talk properly?"

"He is a soul master." The assistant explained.

The guard was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh, you are... the young lady's new follower?"

Yu Ling didn't bother to pay attention to the guard's strange look and walked straight towards Qiu Brown.

"Hey, wait a minute, he's very dangerous..." The guard stopped mid-sentence.

Because Yu Ling had already walked up to Qiu Brown and pointed a finger between his eyebrows, but Qiu Brown seemed to be immobilized and remained motionless obediently.

"Damn, the soul master is so evil." Another guard couldn't help but feel frightened, and couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.

"Next, I want to ask questions alone. Please go out and wait for a while." Yu Ling said calmly.

The two guards looked at each other, and finally reluctantly went out and continued to stand guard. After all, they were still afraid of the mysterious soul master.

The assistant was left to watch Qiu Brown cautiously, fearing that he would get angry and hurt someone.

It took Yu Ling a lot of effort to completely wipe out the black runes in Qiu Brown's soul sea, especially since the rune's final backlash directly consumed 60 to 70% of his soul power.

This was obviously not because Qiu Chen was stimulated and went crazy, but because someone had tampered with him.

Things have become more complicated. There is actually a high-level soul master among the murderers?

Yu Ling roughly estimated that that person was probably in the Soul Condensation Realm.

Isn't it said that there are very few soul masters in the North? Why did he meet an equally matched opponent not long after he arrived?

The more Yu Ling thought about it, the stranger he got, what kind of combination was the murderer's team? They included Xuanwu cultivators, Xuanwu breakers, and soul-condensing soul masters.

Finally, a slight bang broke Yu Ling's thoughts.

Qiu Tan had woken up from his nightmare, but his soul was inevitably traumatized. He only felt his brain swelling and pain, and he was groggy. It took him a long time to realize that there were two strangers standing in front of him.

Qiu Tan stood up warily, with a look of caution on his face. Yu Ling's assistant also stared at him, quite intent on fighting if they disagreed.

"Don't be nervous, we are from the Luo family." Yu Ling explained.

He didn't say it was okay, but when he mentioned Qiu Chun, he became furious. He glared and said angrily: "It's the Luo family who killed everyone! If I fall into your hands, I will admit it. If you want to kill me, you have to do whatever you want!"

The assistant was also angry: "You are simply unreasonable. Now you are sober and you are still so crazy. The Murong family members died because we did not take good care of them, but you can't be more patient. We are also cordoning off the entire territory and trying our best to hunt down the real culprits, okay?

good!"

"This is not a matter of lack of care! The assassin headed by him is clearly practicing your Luo family's "Yao Ri Jue"!" Qiu Brown yelled hatefully.

"This is impossible! You are so slanderous..." the assistant blurted out, but in extreme shock, his tone was a little weaker.

"How is it impossible? Is it possible that you dare to do it but don't admit it?!" Qiu Tan laughed angrily.

Yu Ling calmly mobilized her soul power and performed an auxiliary soul skill of calmness and concentration.

Qiu Brown felt the spring breeze blowing on his face, and most of his anger had subsided unconsciously. Before he could recover, Yu Ling had already calmly said: "The Luo family and the Murong family have been friends for generations and have no intention of harming anyone. Please retreat."

To put it bluntly, killing Murong's envoy will not do any good to the Luo family, it will only anger the Murong family, wouldn't this be self-destruction of the Great Wall?"

"But obviously..." Qiu Tan interrupted anxiously.

Yu Ling interrupted directly: "There is a thief in the Luo family, and the eldest lady also hates it deeply, but please believe that the Luo family has no intention of harming the Murong family. This murder must be caused by an outsider to instigate discord. I hope Murong

If I can have more patience and trust, the Luo family will definitely bring the real culprit to justice and give you a perfect explanation."

The assistants were dumbfounded. They didn't know where Yu Ling's confidence came from. They haven't even collected all the clues yet. I'm afraid they are still far away from the real murderer, right?

But Qiu Tan calmed down a lot, no longer blushing and making noise, but just said a little suspiciously: "Have you guessed who the real murderer is?"

"The real murderer has not been caught yet, but he will never escape from Lin'an Star. There are too many shady things involved in this case. Not only is there a mole in the Luo family, but there should also be a traitor in the Murong family." Yu Ling said calmly.

"Are you doubting me?!" Qiu Tan almost exploded with anger.

"You probably don't know yet. Five of the eight bodyguards died, and apart from you who fell into madness, the remaining two committed suicide and disappeared." Yu Ling said calmly.

Qiu Tan was stunned for a moment, and his assistant couldn't help but feel happy, adding: "The one who committed suicide is called He Wei, and the one who disappeared is called Ma Qingxiong."

"Impossible, the two of them would never do such a thing, especially Ma Qingxiong!" Qiu Tan came back to his senses and insisted.

"Oh? Tell me the reason."

"They are all the 'old men' of my Murong family. Ma Qingxiong has been working for the family for three generations and has always been diligent in his work. Moreover, I usually have a good relationship with him. He is an honest person and has no ambitions. His wife and daughter are both

While still in the clan, he will not and dare not betray the Murong family."

Qiu Tan quickly explained: "And when the assassin made a sneak attack, he was slapped on the back and fell down on the spot. Even if he didn't die, he was seriously injured. In that state, he couldn't even get up, let alone quietly.

Missing?"

Yu Ling nodded without making any judgment, and changed the topic: "What about He Wei?"

"He? He won't either."

Qiu Tan was very sure at first, but when he thought that He Wei committed suicide, his tone inevitably became a little hesitant, but he still continued: "When he was young, his father died young, and he only lived with his mother. He lived in poverty, and later...

The eldest lady appreciated his perseverance and introduced him to the family's Foreign Affairs Hall. In order to live up to the eldest lady's trust, He Wei kept practicing hard and almost miraculously reached the breaking level..."
