Once, in Fangzheng's heart, Fang Yuan was like a mountain, so high that he could not climb it.
Once, Fangzheng thought that the shadow of this mountain would shroud him for the rest of his life.
But life brought him an unexpected turn of events.
Fang Yuan's decadence, made Fangzheng see his weakness. The mountain in Fangzheng's heart, collapsed.
However-
So this was just his brother's performance, a play?
The mountain that had collapsed in his heart, now seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mysterious fog.
"Brother, what kind of person are you?"
Only then did Fangzheng realize that he couldn't figure out his biological brother at all.
Fang Yuan's scheming was too deep, such acting skills, and the cruelty of killing, made him feel extremely unfamiliar.
This feeling of unfamiliarity, was mixed with a fear that even Fangzheng did not want to admit.
This damned feeling, returned to his heart.
He tried his best to get rid of this fear, which made him subconsciously follow Tie Ruo Nan's footsteps.
"Lady Tie, thank you for letting me discover the truth, and see another side of my brother. Helping you is helping me, tell me, I will tell you everything I know. "Fangzheng said sincerely.
Tie Ruo Nan nodded, then shook her head: "I basically know what I need to know. Now the question is, where did Fang Yuan's Liquor worm come from? "
"You're right. This is very strange. Brother's situation at that time, he had not inherited his parents' inheritance, and his aptitude was only C grade, and he had just started cultivating. Where did he get the Liquor worm? "Fangzheng frowned.
"There are only two reasons for this situation. One is someone else's sponsorship, the second is a legacy. Who would invest in a C grade aptitude person? If it's a legacy, then what is it? "Thinking of this, Tie Ruo Nan could not help but stop.
Legacy inheritance … Legacy inheritance …
The word kept repeating itself in her mind.
She fell into deep thought.
"If it's a legacy, then everything makes sense. First, the origin of the Liquor worm can be explained. Secondly, we have a motive for Jia Jin Sheng's assassination! "Tie Ruo Nan's heart palpitated.
The main question that had puzzled her was the motive for the murder.
There was always a motive for murder.
Fang Yuan revealed the Liquor worm. Jia Jin Sheng wanted to buy it. However, the value of the Liquor worm was still relatively low and not enough to constitute a motive for murder.
But if Jia Jin Sheng, who couldn't take a loss, insisted on buying Fang Yuan's Liquor worm, and then followed him and discovered a hidden inheritance …
What would Fang Yuan do?
"Hehehehehe." Tie Ruo Nan laughed.
Fangzheng gave him a strange look.
Tie Ruo Nan turned back: "I want to check the history of the Guyue Tribe!"
Fangzheng shook his head and spread his hands. "The historical records are kept in the forbidden area of the family. How can outsiders read them?"
"Can you go in, then?"
Fangzheng shook his head. "He must be an elder."
"Is that so … what should I do?" Tie Ruo Nan frowned.
"Lady Tie, maybe I can help you." A one-armed old woman walked out from the shadows.
It was none other than Guyue Yao Ji.
She was still the head of the medicine faction. However, ever since she stepped down from her position and was replaced by Guyue Zhong, she had cut off her own arm. Her power had shrunk to an unimaginable degree.
But the pursuit of power was deeply ingrained in her bones. She deeply understood that working with Guyue Zhong was only a temporary solution. Only by taking down the Mo faction would she have the capital to take back her position as the medicine faction's elder.
To take down the Mo faction, all she had to do was kill their hope.
And this hope was naturally Guyue Fang Yuan.
"Divine investigator Tie, to tell you the truth, I have been paying attention to you for a long time. Please follow me, I will bring you into the forbidden area of the family. Hehehe, if it was any other time, that place would be heavily guarded. But unfortunately, I am in charge of guarding the forbidden area now. "Guyue Yao Ji laughed sinisterly.
Of course she wanted to get someone else to do her dirty work, but if Fang Yuan was innocent, she would not be stingy in framing and slandering him.
In a secret room in the underground cave, Tie Ruo Nan saw a secret manual that recorded the history of Guyue clan.
From the first generation, when the Guyue village was just built, to its golden age, and now it was in dire straits. The secret manual recorded all the big and small historical events in these hundreds of years, it was very detailed.
"This first generation clan leader has a mysterious origin, he founded the Guyue village alone. He is very likely a demonic cultivator! "Tie Ruo Nan flipped through the first few pages and said something shocking.
"This is nothing. Many demonic Gu Masters, when they get tired of roaming, would choose to start a family and establish a clan. Hundreds of years later, they would change from black to white, and these clan descendants would become righteous people. There are many such situations, it is not strange. "Tie Xue Leng said at the side.
"Then his previous crimes, are they written off just like that?" Tie Ruo Nan's expression was indignant, "These demonic Gu Masters commit crimes, and when they get tired, they will settle down and enjoy their old age. Isn't this letting them off too easily? "
Tie Xue Leng sighed faintly, "Ruo Nan. When I was young, I was like you, thinking that the black in this world is black, and the white is white. But when you see more, you will find that this world is actually grey. Sometimes, black can turn into white, and white can turn into black. Some black may not be more sinister than white, and some white may have deeper sins. "
"Moreover, demonic Gu Masters also have their own difficulties. Righteous Gu Masters control the cultivation resources, while demonic Gu Masters are alone, and can only rely on some extreme methods. Like the first generation clan leader, being able to repent is already a good example. At least he no longer does evil, turning from black to white, and contributing to the righteous path. "
Tie Xue Leng consoled, but the young girl Tie Ruo Nan was not convinced.
She shook her head, saying resolutely, "Father, it is wrong for you to sympathize with demonic Gu Masters like this. White is white, black is black. If they commit a crime, they should be punished. If they break the law, they should be punished. Otherwise, where is justice, where is justice, where is the law? "
"This is not sympathy. Where there are people, there are benefits. Where there are benefits, there are crimes. As long as people exist, crimes will not stop. My child, you will gradually realize that a person's strength is just too weak. " Tie Ruo Nan's tone was full of vicissitudes and sorrow, "Forget it, it is still too early for you to talk about this, you should focus on solving the case."
"Yes, father." Tie Ruo Nan curled her lips, not taking Tie Xue Leng's bleak words to heart.
When people are young, they always think they can change the world. But when they grow up, they will gradually realize that maintaining their own nature and not being changed by the world is already a great success.
The young girl continued to read, but her hands suddenly stopped.
"Fourth generation clan leader … Flower Wine Monk? Liquor … Liquor worm? "Her eyes brightened!
…
Electric currents flickered, and sharp teeth were like blades, shining with a cold light.
A frenzy lightning wolf pounced towards Bai Ning Bing, its claws drawing a shadow in the air.
Bai Ning Bing did not move, and in his blue eyes, the frenzy lightning wolf's claws grew larger, but he had no intention of dodging.
Suddenly, a white rainbow shot out from the aperture on his abdomen.
The rainbow exploded, and white light rained down like rain. In the rain of light, an elegant white snake appeared, its long silver whiskers fluttering like immortal ribbons.
Facing this Rank five snake Gu, the frenzy lightning wolf that was howling arrogantly a moment ago immediately became listless and wanted to retreat.
But the white form immortal snake opened its mouth and lightly spat out a cloud of mist.
The white mist seemed slow but was actually fast, covering the frenzy lightning wolf.
The frenzy lightning wolf's vision was obscured by this mist, and it anxiously leapt backwards. But no matter how it moved, this white mist followed it like a shadow, covering its body and preventing it from escaping.
The white form immortal snake Gu's ability was this maze mist. After covering it, it could cause enemies to lose their sense of direction, and their vision would be filled with white mist.
Wild beasts like lightning wolves had strong eyesight, but weak hearing. The frenzy lightning wolf was the same. Right now, its most powerful sensory organ was obscured, and it anxiously howled. As it moved, it crashed through many trees and rocks, becoming more and more berserk.
Howl!
It suddenly opened its mouth and roared, spitting out a ray of blue lightning.
The lightning shot towards Bai Ning Bing, but Bai Ning Bing did not have any intention of dodging.
Crack!
The lightning struck Bai Ning Bing's chest, piercing through it.
Bai Ning Bing slowly lowered his head, and the large hole created by the lightning allowed him to see the back from the front.
But very quickly, this large wound started to freeze. Layers of white ice covered the wound, and soon the ice melted, turning into flesh and blood.
"This is the true strength of the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique. I am ice, and ice is me. Fatal injuries to ordinary Gu Masters can be healed in a few breaths for me. "Bai Ning Bing sighed in his heart, and then slowly raised his right arm.
His right arm was originally broken, but now with the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique, it had already recovered to its original state.
"The white form immortal snake Gu also sensed the aura of the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique, and entered my aperture. The Northern Dark Ice Soul physique can attract water type Gu worms! It is so strong, yet so weak! "
Bai Ning Bing sighed towards the sky.
These days, he did not suppress his cultivation. The Northern Dark Ice Soul physique was getting stronger, but he also felt that his death was approaching.
"Great immortal is still not moving?" At this time, the Bai clan leader walked over and asked in concern.
Bai Ning Bing shook his head, "This snake Gu did not acknowledge me, but was attracted by the aura of my Northern Dark Ice Soul physique, and moved from the spirit spring to my aperture. Only when I am in danger, and my life is in danger, will it come out to protect me. "
But the white form immortal snake was not refined by Bai Ning Bing, thus this protection effect was extremely limited.
For example, the frenzy lightning wolf's lightning was too fast, and the white form immortal snake could not react in time, and Bai Ning Bing was struck.
In the end, the white form immortal snake was not a defensive Gu.
In Fang Yuan's previous life, Jiang Fan and the River Swallowing Toad were also like this. Although Jiang Fan obtained the Rank five River Swallowing Toad's help, he was still assassinated by a Gu Master.
Bai clan leader sighed, he felt extreme regret and pity towards this. But he had no other choice, he had done everything he could.
"Right, the results of the three clans' negotiation is out. Xiong clan's strength is mostly preserved, and cannot be underestimated. Finally, the three clans decided to hold a three-clan tournament. Based on this result, the compensation will be decided. This tournament can only be participated by Gu Masters below thirty years old. "
"I understand." Bai Ning Bing nodded, "I already have a premonition that my life is coming to an end. To be able to have a tournament, I am really happy. Thank you, lord clan leader. "
"No need to thank me. I am only thinking for the clan. "Bai clan leader's expression was embarrassed. He was the one who suggested this, and the goal was to squeeze out Bai Ning Bing's value to the greatest degree.
However, Bai Ning Bing's gratitude was sincere.
There was no movement from the white form immortal snake Gu, which meant he had no fate with the first ancestor's inheritance. But if there is life, there is death, so what?
Bai Ning Bing had already found his own path, and was no longer afraid. But in his heart, there was still a battle that he could not let go.
"Fang Yuan, you will come to the three-clan tournament, right? Don't disappoint me. Because the current me is really very strong … "
