Chapter 501 A Woman(2/9)
"Tang Xingjun, did a golden light really kill Mayi?" On the way back, the demon slaying demon asked curiously.
"Of course not." Tang Wen shook his head.
"Then who killed Mayi?" Zhang Gang was also very curious.
"It was a golden eagle that pierced through the clouds and tore Ma Yi to pieces with one claw." Tang Wen said.
"Golden Eagle?" The demon-slaying demon was stunned.
"Did he raise it?" Zhan Gang thought for a while and asked.
"Old monster?" the demon-slaying demon blurted out.
"Maybe, of course, I can't be sure. However, there are not many golden eagles with such ability in the world." Zhan Gang said.
"How come the old monster's golden eagle is following us?" the demon-slaying demon said.
"Perhaps the palace knew that our operation was in trouble, so they sent the golden eagle to follow us," said Zhan Gang.
"That's impossible. In the Palace of Punishment, no one can control the old monster, not even the master of the palace." The demon-slayer shook his head.
"Who is the old monster?" Tang Wen was also curious about this.
"The most mysterious big man in the Xing Palace lives in a cave in the back mountain. He has a weird temper and no one dares to provoke him. Not to mention the Xing Emperor, even the Xing Zun behaves like a child in front of him." said the Demon Killer.
.
"The old monster's skills are terrifying. The golden eagles he raises are so powerful." Tang Wen sighed.
"That's fine. With the golden eagle following us, we will be much safer. However, I just don't understand how it can follow us." said the demon slayer.
"Are you following Tang Xingjun?" Zhan Gang suddenly hesitated, and looked at Tang Wen with a look of awe.
"What are you doing with me? I'm not familiar with him. I've never even met him in person." Tang Wen responded, feeling very anxious in his heart.
Because the Golden Eagle has helped him twice, there must be something wrong with it.
"Maybe it's a coincidence." Zhan Gang responded.
"That should be it." The demon-slaying demon also nodded.
As for the old monsters, like the Demon Slaying Demon and Zhan Gang, they are not at a high level yet, so of course I don’t know the inside story.
"You two, I think there is still room for improvement in your strength." In the middle of the night, the two of them were called over by Tang Wen.
"Everyone wants to be promoted, but it's difficult. It's too difficult. It's even harder to reach the heavens. Those of us at the martial master level don't have tens or even hundreds of years, so we don't have to think about it at all." Zhan Gang sighed.
"I think it will take at least thirty years to reach the sixth star." The demon slaying demon said.
"You can do it in thirty years, but it will take at least fifty years for me to reach the five-star level." Zhan Gang shook his head.
"Hehehe, with this, you can level up overnight." Tang Wen took out a bottle.
"What kind of blood is this?" The demon-slaying demon became excited.
"The blood of a true dragon is tens of thousands of years old. Zhao Dan followed me and improved his skills to five or six levels in a few months." Tang Wen said.
"This...I...we..." Zhan Gang became excited, rubbing his hands all the time, and looked at the demon slayer again.
"Lord Xingjun, I need it. If I can step into the Sixth Star, from now on, I will have only Tang Xingjun to obey me for the rest of my life. If I violate my oath, I will have no descendants." The demon slaying demon knelt down on one knee and immediately swore an oath.
"Just like Zhan Gang, I am just a dog of the Tang family!" This guy seems to be more ruthless.
When Demon Tu Yao saw it, he immediately said, "Yao Tu Yao, I am willing to join the Tang family and become a slave of the Tang family. I can be driven by the Tang family at any time."
"Hahaha, you two are serious, come on, let's have a bottle each..." Tang Wen laughed and helped the two of them up.
The next day, Tang Wen's room was quiet.
The other criminals didn't dare to ask. Mr. Xingjun seemed to be sleeping, so they had no choice but to wait outside.
"Zhao Dan, I want to tell everyone that I will continue to have a day off today, and I can go shopping around Kuangtian Xiang City." Tang Wen's voice came from inside.
Because, the two demon-slaying demons broke through and entered a critical moment.
Although Tang Wen has the space to change the speed of time, such a breakthrough is also quite risky.
Another day passed, there were several crackling sounds, and the demon-slaying demon and Zhan Gang soared into the sky.
After a long time, the two of them turned around and knelt in front of Tang Wen.
"I actually broke into the Seven-Star Martial Lord and won two yuan in a row. Zhan Gang, what about you?" The demon-slaying demon looked delighted.
"I also got two yuan and six stars. I thought I was dreaming. All this was given by Tang Xingjun." Zhan Gang also looked excited.
"Tang Xingjun, please accept us." The two demon slayers said at the same time.
"You still like to be slaves?" Tang Wen said with a smile.
"It is our honor to be Tang Xingjun's slaves," Zhang Gang said firmly.
…
It seems good to have two more servants in the Tang family.
A few days later, Tang Wen and his party successfully arrived at Shuidu City.
Shui Dingshan, the head of the Shui family, led a group of clan members to grandly greet Tang Wen and his party outside the city gate.
"This standard is too high, tens of thousands of tribesmen are welcoming it." Zhao Dan glanced at it, a little surprised.
"Haha, high-level reception has several purposes.
Firstly, it is to show respect for us, secondly, it is to hope that we can do our best to help them solve the case, and thirdly, it is to deter the perpetrators.
Tell them that I have invited Mr. Xing from the Xing Palace to solve the case."
"It's difficult." Zhao Dan shook his head.
"Of course it's difficult. You see, the Shui family has two warrior-level figures. Shui Dingshan is one, and Shui Jingran, Grand Duke of the Shui family, is one. Compared with them, our group is too weak." Tang Wen said.
"The Shui family is so powerful and if someone dares to plot against them, then the other party will not be weaker than them. We must be more careful and don't risk our lives." Zhao Dan said.
"This matter should be investigated by someone like the King of Punishers. We are just catching up." Tang Wen smiled bitterly.
"Someone wants to plot against you, brother," Zhao Dan said.
"It's Kang Qiliang's group." Tang Wen suddenly became serious.
"How did you know?" Zhao Dan was stunned.
"Monster Killer told Zhan Gang that he was inspired by them to snatch the case from the arrest department." Tang Wen hummed.
"Damn it, I'm not done with him." Zhao Dan clenched his fists.
"Keep this account in mind for now and settle it later. However, it may be a good thing." Tang Wen said.
"It's a good thing, our lives are almost gone. We are walking a tightrope." Zhao Dan said angrily.
In the evening, the Shui family even set up twenty tables for a grand banquet for Tang Wen and his party, which really made people feel a bit at a loss.
However, everyone was here to handle the case, so they didn’t drink much, so as not to leave a bad impression on the boss like a bunch of wine and wine bags.
After the meal, Shui Dingshan and several important elders of the Shui family drank tea with Tang Wen and chatted about the case.
"Four months ago, my second brother Shui Chongyang died tragically in the study at noon.
Three months ago, my uncle Shui Shengli died in the woods behind the mountain.
Two months ago, my eldest daughter Shui Xiuqin died at her parents' home. The other party was too cruel and they were targeting important members of my Shui family.
This hatred is irreconcilable, and if we catch him, he will be cut into thousands of pieces, skinned and cramped!" Shuidingshan said with an angry look on his face and gritted his teeth.
"Yes, the murderer's methods are extremely cruel.
Moreover, the crimes were committed in broad daylight, and they came and went without a trace.
This is also the biggest provocation to our Shui family. If we don't catch him, how can our Shui family still stand in the city of Water City?" Second uncle Shui Hongjun snorted.
"Do you have any suspects?" Tang Wen asked.
"The Shui family has been standing in the city of Water City for thousands of years, and they have made many enemies. To start from this aspect, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack." The third brother Shui Gang shook his head.
"What enemies have you made in the past few hundred years? Moreover, it takes enemies with considerable strength to commit this crime, so let's start with the most powerful ones." asked the demon slayer.
"Of course the most powerful ones are the Mo family." Shui Gang said.
"Tell me about the situation of the Mo family." Zhan Gang asked.
"Mo Wanzhong is the current head of the Mo family. The Mo family's territory is in Hongdu City, which is only about ten thousand miles away from Shuidu City.
The Mo family and the Shui family are both one of the most powerful families in Yiyang Palace. In the past, they had a deep grudge against the mines in order to snatch business.
The most ferocious battle between our two sides resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths..." Shui Hongjun said.
"The second one is Tianwang Village. Back then, my Shui family accidentally entered the territory of Tianwang Village and was killed by the people of Tianwang Village.
We came to ask for an explanation, and the two sides fought fiercely, killing hundreds of thousands of each other.
From then on, we forged a grudge..." Shui Dingshan said.
…
"The three victims were all killed in broad daylight, which shows that the murderer was simply ignoring the Shui family.
To be continued...
