The two men from the Devil religion fell to the ground silently after Shenlang checked their spiritual memories.
With a wave of his hand, Shenlang turned the two men's bodies into ashes.
Shenlang's lips curled up as a glint of light flashed across his eyes. "Interesting."
The assassination of Qin Yu by the Devil religion was definitely not that simple. The Qin family was also one of the overlords of the Gods' Continent. Although the Qin Emperor had passed away tens of thousands of years ago and the Qin family was no longer what it used to be, the Devil Venerable had also passed away long ago. The Devil religion was also on the decline. The Devil religion would definitely not provoke the Qin family if it did not have huge benefits.
Shenlang felt that the assassination of Qin Yu was most likely related to the Dragon Emperor. But what was the reason for the Devil religion to make trouble for the Qin family? Shenlang did not know, but he knew that there would be a follow-up to this matter.
...
In the center of Qin City, there was a huge and magnificent manor. There were pavilions, terraces, and countless maids. There were guards with swords everywhere. Those guards were wearing armor and standing in neat formations. The entire manor was like the inner courtyard of a palace.
In a large hall, the captain of the cavalry of the Qin family was half-kneeling on the ground in fear. His head was lowered as if he was waiting for his judgment.
At this moment, a dignified middle-aged man with a square face in a purple robe slowly walked in from the side door of the hall.
When the middle-aged man saw Qin Yu, who was wrapped in a cloak, beside the captain of the cavalry, a cold murderous aura rose from his body.
The hall was already gloomy and cold. When the murderous aura rose, the temperature dropped even more. It was as if it was winter.
"Tell me, what happened to Yu 'er?"
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. His robe fluttered as he sat down on a majestic chair.
A layer of cold sweat had already appeared on the captain's forehead. After hearing the middle-aged man's question, the captain sighed. With his Transformation Realm cultivation, he should not have felt cold. But when the middle-aged man's murderous aura erupted, he felt his entire body turn cold. It was as if the god of death was staring at him.
"Reporting to the family head, it was this subordinate's carelessness that allowed Young Master Qin Yu to be assassinated by a devil cultivator. Please punish me."
The captain did not try to shirk his responsibility. Instead, he directly asked for forgiveness.
The Qin Clan was governed according to the rules of the imperial court. The entire clan was governed according to the rules of the imperial court. The captain of the cavalry was a minister of the imperial court. If he didn't do a good job, he had to admit to it. No matter what the reason was, there was no excuse.
"We will talk about your mistake later. First, tell me what happened to Yu 'er," said the middle-aged man.
The head of the Qin family was called Qin Heng. In the Gods Continent, he was known as the Unhindered Heavenly King. As a Dao Integration expert, he was a famous expert on the Gods Continent. Only the leaders of the major organizations in the Nine Ridge and the Thirteen Zones could contend against him.
Of course, there were some hidden experts on the Gods Continent as well. However, those people were in secluded cultivation and did not participate in the affairs of the underworld.
The captain of the cavalrymen told Qin Heng everything about the fight between Qin Yu and Yan Han, as well as the assassination attempt, without missing a single word.
Qin Heng frowned. He was much smarter than the captain. At that time, the captain's judgment had been affected by Qin Yu's death. Thus, he did not think too much about it. Now that Qin Heng thought about it, he thought of something.
"Was there only that devil cultivator at the time? Did you not sense anyone else in the dark? "
The captain thought about it carefully and shook his head. "Patriarch, there was no one else at the time. There was only Yan Han, who was fighting with Young Master Qin Yu, and some spectating cultivators."
Qin Heng shook his head. "There must be someone else in the dark. Furthermore, it could be someone from the Devil religion. No matter how daring a devil cultivator is, he would not dare to assassinate a member of the Qin family unless he had the support of a certain power. Only then would he dare to make a move on a member of the Qin family. Most of the devil cultivators are in the Northern Ridge. The Northern Ridge is the world of the Devil religion. The devil cultivator must have received the support of the Devil religion to assassinate Yu 'er."
Hearing Qin Heng's analysis, the captain's expression changed. He suddenly raised his head and cupped his hands. "Patriarch, Zhang Yuan is willing to be the vanguard. I vow to seek justice for Young Master Qin Yu even if I die."
Qin Heng did not speak. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes. The entire hall fell silent. One could even hear a pin drop.
The captain's expression was firm. He bowed to Qin Heng and turned to walk out of the hall. He looked like a warrior who was going to die.
...
"AHHHH!!!"
In Qin City, a devil cultivator was killed by the captain with a single sword strike. Following the death of that cultivator, all the devil cultivators in Qin City were killed.
"To resist foreign aggression, one must first pacify the internal affairs."
Since the Qin family wanted to wage war against the Devil religion, the Qin Mountains had to be purged.
The entire Qin City was enveloped in an oppressive atmosphere. All the cultivators were extremely careful. They were afraid of angering the Qin family and bringing about a fatal disaster.
Shenlang's group of six roamed around Qin City. They had also seen a few scenes of the Qin family chasing down devil cultivators.
Shenlang's group arrived at the entrance of the Qin family. Looking at the huge palace of the Qin family, they smiled faintly. Following which, the six of them walked forward and prepared to pay a visit to the Qin family.
Since the Dragon Emperor was related to the Devil religion, Shenlang needed to find an ally. The Qin family was Shenlang's target. The Qin family and the Devil religion were like fire and water. As long as the Qin family was not stupid, they would not reject him as an ally.
"Halt. Who are you?"
A guard of the Qin family stopped Shenlang's group and asked coldly.
Won Jin-yang walked forward and said indifferently, "Our Emperor wishes to pay a visit to your Patriarch. Please pass on the message."
When the guard heard Won Jin-yang's words, he was slightly taken aback. His expression changed slightly as he said, "My Patriarch is not someone you can meet just because you want to. Please tell me your names. If you are a famous person, I can pass on the message."
Won Jin-yang snorted coldly and released his aura. A powerful pressure enveloped the guard's body.
Under Won Jin-yang's aura, the guard nearly knelt on the ground. Veins bulged on his forehead, but despite the immense pressure, he did not kneel.
In this world, Won Jin-yang could be considered a peak Transformation Realm expert. He was only a step away from the Dao Integration Realm. He was not someone the guard, who was only at the Body Tempering Realm, could resist. Just a strand of his aura was enough to overwhelm the guard.
Just as the Qin family guard was about to collapse, a powerful aura rose from the Qin family and blocked Won Jin-yang's aura for the guard.
"Who are you? You dare to cause trouble in front of my Qin family? Are you tired of living? "
