"Didn't I say it before? The fourth person you are looking for! "Tu Long's expression was calm, calmly entering, not the least bit pressured by Inspector Bai He's aura.
"I am the second head of the Black Water Pirates who wanted to assassinate them, Tu Long!"
Su Yu was shocked. Tu Long was willing to testify!
If Tu Long was unwilling, even if Su Yu forced him, there was no need for Tu Long to agree.
Thinking about how he had requested Su Yu to replace him and head to the Tu family of Anyue City to return the ashes, Su Yu was silent.
The words of a dying man were kind.
Slaying the dragon was using the last of his life to repay the favor.
All he wanted was for him to return to his roots.
As he passed by Su Yu, Tu Long gave him a calm smile, "Palace Master Yin Yu, please."
Inspector Bai He had an unfriendly expression, "You are saying that you are the true culprit who killed the vice palace masters?"
Tu Long nodded, "Yes! I am acting on orders. I can testify to everything Palace Master Yin Yu has said, it is all true! "
"As for my identity, anyone in the Yinyu Area would recognize me."
With his testimony, everything would be revealed to the world.
Inspector Bai He's eyes were filled with warning, a hidden threat, "Is that so? Please think about it carefully, did you say something wrong? "
Unexpectedly, Tu Long sneered, "Inspector Bai He, take a step back and you'll see the world. Leaving others a way out is also leaving yourself a way out. Don't push others too hard."
"Palace Master Yin Yu is a chivalrous person who values relationships. He does not deserve to die."
His face turned red from the mocking, Inspector Bai He was furious, but his expression was calm, "Alright, the truth has been revealed! Vice Palace Master Zang Jian wanted to kill three vice palace masters first. Yin Yu, Xue Yao, and Feng Qing resisted, they are not guilty! "
"All of you, behave yourselves!" Inspector Bai He stood up, his old eyes staring deeply at Yin Yu. He also glared at Tu Long, who had ruined things at the crucial moment, before leaving with hatred.
The matter had been settled.
"All of you can leave. Yin Yu, stay." Ling Xiaotian's expression was calm.
When only Su Yu and him were left in the loft, Ling Xiaotian calmly looked toward the sky, calmly saying, "How is Tu Long's identity?"
What he was concerned about was Tu Long!
No, to be more precise, it was Tu Long who dared to kill a Vice Hall Master.
Su Yu shook his head and said, "The mastermind behind the Black Water Pirates is not him, but the First Head!"
With a hint of surprise in his eyes, Ling Xiaotian asked, "What is the other party's identity?"
"I don't know! Tu Long has not been able to find out the truth even after so many years, "Su Yu reported honestly.
Ling Xiaotian nodded lightly, "En, where are the Black Water Pirates? I'll make a trip there myself."
Daring to assassinate a Deputy Palace Master of the Empire of Darkness, he was extraordinary!
"It's already too late. The Black Water Pirates have already been silenced by that First Master. Not even the fowls and dogs are spared! Only this second leader had lost an arm and survived! The reason I brought him here today is that I hope to hand him over to the Hall Master to deal with. "
This was the reason why Su Yu had brought Tu Long along.
That mysterious leader was ultimately a hidden threat, so he had no choice but to inform Ling Xiaotian.
"You sure are clean." Ling Xiaotian snorted coldly.
In this way, the clues were completely cut off.
"Dragon Slayer … I'll leave him to you." Ling Xiaotian muttered.
Just now, Tu Long had stepped forward bravely to help Su Yu. Ling Xiaotian had seen this.
Su Yu nodded, "Understood."
Turning around, Ling Xiaotian let out a warm smile, looking at Su Yu with satisfaction, "In just a month, you have changed a lot. Your potential is shocking."
"It is the Palace Master who has nurtured me," Su Yu replied gratefully.
Thinking back, Ling Xiaotian had saved him twice, giving him the chance to enter the Empire of Darkness, and even giving him the chance to walk on a bigger stage.
Outside the Liuxian faction, when Lu Jun was about to strike, Ling Xiaotian had appeared and scared Lu Jun away, gifting him the immortal-level technique, Nine Fingers of Imaginary Thunder.
During the Alliance Meet, Ling Xiaotian had appeared to protect Su Yu.
He had also invited Su Yu to enter the Empire of Darkness.
Su Yu would never forget his kindness.
"You did not disappoint me. Hence, I'll give you a chance to improve further." Ling Xiaotian clapped his hands mysteriously.
Deep within the loft, a lady with a slender figure and a beautiful figure, wearing a veil, walked over leisurely like a fairy.
Even though her face was veiled, one could see the stunning beauty beneath the veil.
A pair of crescent moon-like eyes flashed with a faint smile.
Under the silver mask, Su Yu's lips twitched.
Hua Zhilan!
"Zhilan, this is the new deputy palace master, Yin Yu!"
"She is Hua Zhilan, the ninth deputy palace master. She entered the Empire of Darkness five years before you. Both of you are from the Hundred Territories, please keep in contact in the future."
Hua Zhilan smiled as she curtsied, her crescent eyes sizing up Su Yu curiously. A moment later, she pouted, "You are only sixteen years old, but you are already at Immortal Realm Level One Peak. You seem to be stronger than me."
It looked like a compliment, but her tone was full of mockery. She did not take him seriously.
Ling Xiaotian laughed and shook his head, "Don't look down on him. Even Zang Jian lost to him."
Eh? Hua Zhilan's crescent eyes narrowed, staring at Su Yu without blinking, "Is that so?"
Zang Jian was ranked fifth. As a new deputy palace master, Su Yu had to be impressed.
"Palace Master Zhilan, please take care of me in the future …"
"Hehe, call me Senior Sister." Hua Zhilan suddenly laughed, puffing out her chest.
Among the ten vice palace masters, there was no seniority to speak of among them.
Su Yu laughed silently. This Hua Zhilan was a little strange.
"Yes, Senior Sister Hua." Su Yu laughed.
On Shenyue Island, the three slaps on her buttocks had already written off all their grudges.
"Yinyu, I will give you a chance to further your studies." Ling Xiaotian finally returned to the main topic, "I will arrange for you and Zhilan to make a trip to Anyue City. Through there, you will enter the Dark Forest to train."
"I will send people to protect you in secret, to ensure that you return safely from the Dark Forest."
Training? Su Yu did not understand. The Dark Forest was said to be a dangerous place. Humans rarely stepped into it. Was there any training value in that place?
Hua Zhilan's eyes widened, surprised, "Is it finally my turn? Wait, I only got a chance after making a great contribution. Why can this lad, who has just arrived, go with me? "
Hua Zhilan curled her lips.
"He has made a great contribution, there are no objections. You will set off today." Ling Xiaotian did not give her a chance to refute, immediately saying.
Set off immediately? Su Yu did not understand, "Palace Master, isn't this a little rushed? I need to make arrangements for the Yinyu Area. "
This trip to Anyue City would take at least a few months. He did not have time to make arrangements for the Yinyu Area's affairs.
"There is no need. Time is of the essence, there is no time." Palace Master Ling Xiaotian hurriedly said, "Our Empire of Darkness has an extremely good training ground. However, according to the reports, there is a beast tide coming from the Dark Forest. It will quickly cover the training ground. If you are late, you will be delayed by half a year."
"You need to complete your training before the beast tide arrives."
Beast tide?
Su Yu and Hua Zhilan creased their brows at the same time.
"Palace Master, I have something to report. Within the ocean, wild beasts and demonic beasts have all disappeared! It is extremely strange! "Hua Zhilan revealed what she had seen in the ocean.
This was what Su Yu wanted to say.
"Palace Master, within the past half a month, there has been a beast tide in my Yinyu Area," Su Yu said.
Ling Xiaotian raised his brows, "Oh? At the same time, there were signs of a beast tide in the ocean, the center of the northern continent, and the Dark Forest? "
This matter was a little strange.
"I will inform the headquarters of this information. You can train with peace of mind. You can set off now."
Su Yu nodded, stepping out of the loft and walking toward Zi Yunxiang.
"Yunxiang, I need to travel to Anyue City. Come with me," Su Yu said. Bringing her with him was the safest move. If she was left in the Yinyu Area and captured alive by the mysterious First Head, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zi Yunxiang was elated, obediently agreeing.
After which, Su Yu looked toward Tu Long, calmly saying, "If you really wish to return to the family, I think it would be better for you to go personally. Follow me to the Dark Forest."
Tu Long could not believe his ears, "You … are not going to kill me?"
Su Yu's expression was cold, "If I really have to bear the guilt, a living person is far more repentant than a dead person!"
Tu Long's face was filled with excitement, the gratitude in his heart indescribable. He looked deeply at Su Yu, "I, Tu Long, will remember your kindness for as long as I live."
Just like that, including Hua Zhilan, the four of them quickly headed toward Anyue City.
Half a day later, they had passed through half of the sub palace's area and were about to leave.
However, just as the flying eagle was about to pass through the sub palace's area, an extremely sharp spirit energy shot down from the clouds in the sky!
The spirit energy was as thick as a small bucket. It was like a beam of light, sneakily attacking from the layer of clouds.
Su Yu was cautious the entire way, keeping his vision within a fifty-mile radius.
"Be careful!" Just as there was a change in the layer of clouds, Su Yu had sensed it. He carried Zi Yunxiang and escaped from the giant eagle in time.
As for Hua Zhilan, she was slightly further away from Su Yu. Su Yu did not have the time to carry her away, and could only warn her.
Rumble, bang —
The spirit energy arrived in the blink of an eye!
The giant eagle did not have time to react. It let out a pathetic cry on the spot, turning into gray dust!
What a tyrannical spirit energy!
Hua Zhilan did not have time to dodge, but she did not panic. She was clearly only Dragon Realm Level Seven, but her body was releasing a faint glow.
After which … her body dispersed, turning into a glow that filled the sky.
After which, the glow gathered beside Su Yu, turning back into Hua Zhilan!
This scene caused Su Yu to be extremely shocked.
What kind of strange secret technique was that? Her body turning into light, then gathering again?
Such a horrifying secret technique was truly breathtaking!
But at this very moment, Su Yu had no time to pay attention to it. He shot toward the clouds with a serious expression, coldly saying, "You are an inspector, but you want to launch a sneak attack. Aren't you ashamed?"
Whoosh —
The clouds suddenly dispersed!
A gust of wind blew past. A hundred zhang in front of Su Yu and his group, there was an elderly man standing with his hands behind his back, as if he had teleported.
It was Inspector Bai He!
His expression was cold, his face filled with righteousness, "Hmph, I represent the Empire's headquarters to capture and kill the traitors. You, Yin Yu, killed your own people, you deserve to die!"
Su Yu could not help but laugh, "Half a day ago, you announced on the spot that you had investigated the matter thoroughly!"
"That was Ling Xiaotian's corruption, affecting the fairness of the investigation! Now, I declare that you, Yin Yu, are guilty, and should be executed according to the law! "
Su Yu laughed in anger at his sophistry.
"I knew that an old thing like you would not let the matter rest. But if you want to kill me, just kill me. Why do you need to be so sanctimonious?" Su Yu got into a defensive stance, but his heart was pounding.
Inspector Bai He's abilities were unfathomable, as if he was even stronger than Ling Xiaotian.
In front of such a strong martial artist, Su Yu did not even have the chance to attack!
