"Xiao Chen, a day has already passed. There are still two days left. Can you really find the culprit?" In Xiao Chen's room, Wu Hao asked anxiously. A day had already passed and there was no progress at all.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know. This guy is hiding very well and won't come out easily. It's easier said than done to catch him."
"Then what should we do? If you can't find the culprit after three days, Ren Qianshan will definitely kill you! "Huo Yun said anxiously.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Isn't there still two days left? Don't worry, we'll find the culprit. "
"I'm going out for a walk." Xiao Chen smiled and walked out of the room.
"Xiao Chen, aren't you worried at all? What are you thinking? " Ancient White Tiger Voice Transmission asked. Seeing Xiao Chen so leisurely, Ancient White Tiger didn't know what Xiao Chen was thinking.
"I'm thinking of how to lure the black-clothed man out." Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Now that Ren Qiushui is dead and he isn't the one who stole the elixir. Gao Jianfeng isn't the culprit either. Only Liu Yuesong, Kong Chengtian, and Zhao Taiyu are left. Little White Tiger, if you were the black-clothed man, what would you do?"
"Me? If I were the black-clothed man and the situation was in his favor, I wouldn't do anything or show myself. I would wait until three days later. If you can't find the culprit, that old bastard Ren Qianshan won't let you go! "Ancient White Tiger Voice Transmission said.
"You're right. So, the only way to lure him out is to let Yun Fan and Miss Ru Xue get married again. I've already told Feng Ming Dharma Protector secretly. The third day is the wedding day and the news will spread tomorrow." Xiao Chen smiled and said.
"Get married again? How are you going to capture this man in black? "The Ancient White Tiger asked in confusion.
Xiao Chen transmitted with a smile, "If our guess is correct, the black clothed man's goal is to stop the marriage. If the black clothed man knows that Yun Fan and Ruxue are getting married again, he will definitely stop it. I can use this opportunity to find the real culprit."
"Master, are you really confident?" The little fox asked via voice transmission.
"This person is very smart, cautious, and extremely cunning. When dealing with this kind of person, the more powerful the trick, the easier it is for him to see through it. Hehe, I have my ways." Xiao Chen sent a mysterious voice transmission with a smile.
The next day, Yun Qinghong personally spread the news of Yun Fan and Ru Xue's marriage. He said that they had gotten married on an auspicious day, but something big had happened. It could be seen that an auspicious day was not necessarily an auspicious day, so he casually chose a day to get married. It was tomorrow.
Once this news was out, it immediately caused a stir in the entire Will-O '-the-wisp City. Furthermore, the invitations for the wedding were sent out by the guards. At the same time, the entire Will-O' -the-wisp City was preparing for all kinds of matters.
Xiao Chen, Wu Hao, Huo Yun, and the others were all helping to hang up the red cloth. All of them were so happy that they seemed to have forgotten about finding out the truth.
However, there were people whose faces were gloomy and incomparably furious. They were the people from the Colored Glass Palace.
"Palace Master, that brat Xiao Chen clearly isn't investigating the real culprit. We haven't seen any movements from him these two days. He's just wandering around." A Ghost Emperor said angrily.
Another person said angrily, "Hmph! I think Xiao Chen thinks that he has the support of City Lord Yun and Luo Sha Palace Master, which is why he doesn't put us in his eyes. "
Ren Qianshan heard and said angrily, "Whether he investigates or not is his business. Once the three days are up, if he can't find the real culprit, the Old Man will definitely kill him personally!"
In the main hall, Xiao Chen was hanging a big 'Xi' character. As it was a day of celebration, he couldn't use his Ghost Vitality and could only rely on his hands. Xiao Chen had no choice but to climb up.
"Wu Hao, see if it's right in the middle?" Xiao Chen asked.
"A little to the left! A little to the left! "Wu Hao said with a smile. The others were also busy. The entire main city was filled with a lively atmosphere.
"Hehe, Brother Xiao Chen, Brother Liu, thank you for your help." At this moment, Yun Fan entered the main hall and said with a smile. He cupped his fists at everyone.
Wu Hao said with a smile, "Young City Lord, you're too polite. It's a day of celebration. We should also share in the joy, right?"
"That's right! Who knows, I might have a fortuitous encounter after this. "Liu Yuesong said happily.
"Haha!" Everyone in the main hall burst into laughter.
"Young City Lord, since the elixir has been found, we'll continue to give it to Lady Ru Xue as a gift to help her increase her cultivation." Xiao Chen said happily, "Put it in its original position. This time, the black-clothed man won't dare to steal it. He's afraid of being caught by me!"
"Thank you, Brother Xiao Chen." Yun Fan said happily.
"Young City Lord, you're too polite!" Xiao Chen said with a smile. What he said just now was for the black-clothed man to hear. Xiao Chen thought to himself, "If the black-clothed man went to steal the elixir, it means that his purpose was to prevent Yun Fan and Ru Xue from getting married. If he didn't go, it would allow Yun Fan and Ru Xue to get married."
After everyone finished their work, they returned to their rooms to rest. In Xiao Chen's room, Wu Hao asked anxiously, "Xiao Chen, tomorrow is the third day. Have you found the culprit?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen said with a smile, "No. If I did, I would've identified him long ago."
"Then what should we do? We didn't investigate yesterday and you didn't investigate today. Do you really want to die? "Huo Yun said unhappily and rolled his eyes at Xiao Chen.
"Don't worry! I won't die! "Xiao Chen said with a smile. He was full of confidence and looked like he had a card up his sleeve.
Then Huo Yun said, "Xiao Chen, if it's really as you guessed, the black-clothed man will definitely steal the elixir!"
"If he wants to steal it, let him do it! Alright, you guys go back and rest. "Xiao Chen said with a smile. Then he sat cross-legged in the middle of the bed and began to cultivate.
The next day, everyone had already gathered in the main hall. Today was the last day to find the culprit. Everyone was waiting.
"Brother Xiao Chen, today is Yun Fan and Ru Xue's wedding day. Quickly go and see if the elixir is still there. Yesterday, Old Man sent many guards to guard it." Yun Qinghong said.
Feng Ming said with a smile, "That's right. As long as the elixir is still there, the wedding can proceed smoothly. Once Miss Ru Xue is found, we can get married!"
"I was the one who put the elixir. If I go and see it and it's missing, wouldn't it be my fault? Why don't we go together? Anyway, Miss Ru Xue isn't here. She's putting on makeup. She won't know. " Xiao Chen said with a smile. The bride had to find the groom's hidden item before they could get married. If she couldn't find it, she would have to wait for four hours before the groom could take it out and get married. This was to delay the groom and not let him rush to consummate the marriage.
Previously, when the elixir was stolen, there were no gifts. Naturally, they couldn't get married.
"Hehe, that's true. Let's go and see." Luo Sha Palace Master Yi Han said with a faint smile.
Then the group went to the room where the gifts were placed. Everyone quieted down and looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen went to the left corner of the room and took out a small box. He then opened it. Inside the small box was a jade bottle. The jade bottle was filled with elixir.
Xiao Chen opened the jade bottle and realized that the elixir had disappeared. He thought to himself and sneered, "The elixir was indeed stolen. There were so many guards and he was still able to steal it so easily. He is indeed powerful. It seems like his goal is as I guessed. With the maid's confirmation, it's really him. Moreover, the aura on his body can't be wrong."
Xiao Chen then said with a smile, "The elixir is still here. Young City Lord and Miss Ru Xue can get married smoothly."
"Great!" Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone cheered happily.
"Impossible. I have already taken the elixir. Xiao Chen must be trying to lure me out! The reason why he said that the elixir is still here is to help Yun Fan and Ru Xue get married! This cunning bastard! "Someone said angrily in his heart.
"Hmph! Let's see how long you can endure! The fox's tail is about to be revealed. "Xiao Chen sneered in his heart.
"Young City Lord, you can go and prepare now. Ask the bride to get ready too." Xiao Chen looked at Yun Fan with a smile.
Yun Fan was overjoyed and he said with a smile, "Alright, I will go and prepare now."
"Brother Xiao Chen, today is the third day since we found the culprit. Have you found the culprit? If you have found him, it will be a double blessing! "Liu Yuesong quickly asked.
"Damn it! Seeing that the man in black is about to appear, Liu Yuesong, this bastard, is asking me this now! " Xiao Chen cursed in his heart. He then said, "Liu Yuesong, since you are so anxious to know the culprit, are you the culprit?"
Liu Yuesong's face changed and he frowned. "Xiao Chen, don't you dare slander me!"
"Xiao Chen, cut the crap. I have been waiting in Wildfire City for three days. Where is the culprit? If you don't hand over the culprit, I will kill you now! "Ren Qianshan said angrily.
"The culprit is here. I have cultivated a palm technique that allows me to recognize anyone, even if they are masked. I have seen the man in black before and he is here. If I want to find the culprit, all I need to do is touch him. Commander Tian Yue, please extinguish the lanterns and oil. I will only be able to find the culprit when there is no light. Does anyone have any objections?" Xiao Chen smiled and asked for everyone's opinion.
"Since no one has any objections, let's begin." Qin Tianyue said. She then extinguished the oil in the room and the lanterns outside the door. In an instant, the room was pitch-black.
Xiao Chen touched everyone's faces one by one. With his spiritual senses, he was not afraid that he would not be able to touch them.
After a short while, Xiao Chen finished touching everyone's faces. Yun Qinghong quickly asked, "Brother Xiao Chen, how is it? Did you find the culprit? "
"Commander Tian Yue, light the lanterns and oil." Xiao Chen said with a smile. Qin Tianyue activated her fire attribute ghost energy and with a wave of her hand, the lanterns and oil were instantly ignited. The room became bright.
At this moment, everyone had a black mark on their faces. They looked at each other and were stunned at first. They did not know what was going on.
"Brother Xiao Chen, this is …" Feng Ming asked doubtfully. He was very puzzled.
Xiao Chen then walked in front of a person and said with a smile, "How is it, Kong Chengtian? Be honest."
"Brother Xiao Chen, what do you mean by this?" Kong Chengtian asked with a puzzled face.
"Oh, I know, he is the culprit!" Wu Hao quickly said. Everyone quickly looked at Kong Chengtian.
"Everyone has a black mark on their faces except for you. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will recognize you as the man in black, the one who stole and killed Ren Qiushui? "Xiao Chen said with a smile.
Kong Chengtian suddenly panicked and said angrily, "Xiao Chen! Don't slander me! You can't find the real culprit, so you want to use me as a scapegoat! "
Xiao Chen smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, I have evidence!"
