Qin Yu is more powerful than Chahón but he is willing to serve as a guardian of the Red Blood Cave and become Chahón's subordinate. This inexplicable reason naturally makes the 3 majesties suspicious of Qin Yu. They even wonder whether Qin Yu is from the Blue Dragon Temple or from Blue River Province!
They suspect that Qin Yu has come here for the nine swords treasure.
"Why is cave master Qin Yu mute?" Di Luan looks at Qin Yu with a cold smile. Di Qing and Di Jian also stare at Qin Yu, seemingly intending to capture Qin Yu immediately if Qin Yu answers incorrectly.
Qin Yu lets out a sigh: "Majesties, do you really have to ask such a simple question? Can't you see it with your wisdom?"
Qin Yu's words stupefy the 3 Di Luan brothers.
"3 majesties, I don't have a great reputation in this area of water. If I, an unknown person, want to seize the position of cave master directly, perhaps not many people will accept it." Qin Yu says to the 3 majesties in a helpless manner.
Di Luan, however, says: "The strong are supreme. If you kill Chahón, who will dare to resist?"
Qin Yu says at once: "Your Majesty, you said I killed Chahón. Is Chahón alone? No, he has so many guardians. If I want to kill him, I'll naturally have to kill quite a few expert guardians. By the time I become cave master, I'll have killed my own subordinates, won't I? Besides … I wasn't as powerful as I am now at that time. "
"Oh?" Di Luan looks suspiciously at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu says smilingly: "If you ask carefully, majesties, you'll know that I did closed-door training in the Red Blood Cave and my power increased greatly. Before that, I wasn't strong enough to defeat Chahón. Only after this closed-door training did I have the power to defeat Chahón."
Di Luan's eyes flash with coldness.
"Did you enter closed-door training before or after Chahón's death?" Di Luan says with a stern expression.
At this moment, Di Luan, Di Jian and Di Qing all discover the problem in Qin Yu's words. If Qin Yu's power had improved before Chahón's death, then there would be no problem. However, if Qin Yu's strength increased after Chahón's death, then there was a possibility that he could kill Chahón.
"Before death!"
Qin Yu said with certainty.
"Are you sure?" Di Luan says with a cold smile: "It's not good to lie. When the time comes, we can ask anyone. Everybody can keep watch."
Qin Yu says smilingly: "You can ask anyone. Chahón has been in closed-door training for most of the last 100 years. When everybody found out that Chahón was dead that day, they started to discuss who would be the new cave master. Then we had a competition and I defeated Teng Bi."
"I know that you 3 majesties suspect that I killed Chahón and swallowed his Yuanying. But if I killed Chahón, it would take me at least several days to swallow his Yuanying. Teng Bi and I had a competition on the day Chahón died. Even if I killed Chahón, I wouldn't have had enough time to swallow his Yuanying. "
Qin Yu looks smilingly at the 3 majesties: "I believe you 3 majesties understand what I mean."
Di Luan, Di Jian and Di Qing exchange a look, saying nothing.
Swallowing Yuanying at the early Dongxu stage indeed takes several days. But the place where the soul jade slips are kept has to be checked every day. Therefore, when they found out that Chahón was dead, it must have been within a day or even not long after Chahón's death.
In such a short time, even if Qin Yu swallows nonstop, he cannot have increased his power by much.
Suddenly, Di Qing says: "Just now you said that Chahón has often been in closed-door training for the last 100 years, right?"
Qin Yu is secretly delighted. In Qin Yu's opinion, although the death of 8th majesty of the Nine Spirits Hall is important, it is also one of the Nine Spirits Hall's Nine Spirits Hall. However, one of the Nine Swords was also very eye-catching. If he could divert the attention of these three majesties to the jade sword, the situation would be much better.
"Yes, many people here know about it. Moreover, Chahón strictly ordered that nobody is allowed to disturb him." Qin Yu answers honestly.
Di Qing and Di Luan exchange a look.
"7th brother, it seems that Chahón was trying to break the Dust-Removing spell in that black jade case. For an early Dongxu stage blood-red aquatic python to break an immortal's Dust-Removing spell indeed needs 100 years of effort. That Chahón was really pitiful. He had to spend 100 years to break that spell. "Di Qing says through holy sense communication.
Di Qing and Di Luan remember clearly that when the 9 of them obtained that black jade case, it took them several months to succeed even though they joined hands.
"2nd brother, 6th brother, at that time, it's very possible that 8th brother went to snatch Chahón right after he broke the spell. The 2 of them probably had a big fight. As for their deaths, a third person might have intervened. "Di Luan tells Di Qing and Di Jian through holy sense communication.
Di Qing and Di Jian both agree with this.
"But now we don't know whether 8th brother died in the Red Blood Cave or was killed on the way back after snatching the black jade case and leaving the Red Blood Cave." At this moment, Di Luan also becomes suspicious. He is certain that there is a third person hiding in the dark.
When did this third person get into action?
"Qin Yu, where did Chahón die?" Di Luan shouts coldly at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu says with a shake of his head: "Your Majesty, I also don't know where Chahón died because the battle took place in the underground secret rooms. However, when the guardians arrived, there was no corpse in the underground secret rooms."
"Not a single corpse?" Di Luan asks with a frown.
"Yes, not a single corpse." Qin Yu says with certainty.
How can there be a corpse? At that time, in order to destroy the corpse and erase the evidence, Qin Yu directly threw the corpse into his own space ring. Afterwards, he even directly refined it with his genuine flame.
Di Luan and the other 2 become even more doubtful.
Now they can be sure that the underground secret rooms were a battlefield, but why are there no corpses?
Destroy the corpse and erase the evidence!
The 3 brothers can only think of this.
"Take us to the underground secret rooms. Let's see the traces of the battle there." Di Jian suddenly shouts. Given their power, they can definitely make a rough deduction about the battle scene based on the traces of the battle.
Qin Yu says with a somewhat unsightly expression: "This, because the battle took place a year ago, nearly half of the underground secret rooms were destroyed. Therefore, the underground secret rooms have already been rebuilt. That's why those traces of the battle are gone."
"Gone?"
Di Jian, Di Qing and Di Luan all look suspiciously at Qin Yu.
They suspect that Qin Yu has destroyed the evidence.
"Your Majesties, at the moment, all the captains and 16 guardians have gathered in the main hall. My 2 brothers have also arrived. If you have any doubts, you can go ahead and ask them. "Qin Yu says directly.
Qin Yu looks at the 3 majesties with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
"Your Majesties kept interrogating me. It seems you don't trust me at all. I can't do anything about it. Your Highnesses, you can ask anyone you want. True gold fears no fire. I'll go ahead and lead the way. "
Qin Yu goes straight into the main hall, ignoring the reactions of the 3 majesties.
"Oh?"
There is a hint of amazement on Di Luan's face. He did not expect Qin Yu to be so arrogant at this moment.
"If an ordinary person is really the murderer, he will definitely have a guilty conscience in front of us and will be very respectful to us. He will answer whatever we ask and will definitely not dare to lose his temper. This Qin Yu unexpectedly dared to lose his temper." Di Luan says to Di Qing through his holy sense.
Di Qing also says with a nod: "Mm, let's go and ask the others first."
This Di Luan is also a victim of his own cleverness. However, when the time comes, what is false is true. There are many things that are extremely hard to judge.
*****
In the main hall of the Red Blood Cave,
At the moment, Di Jian and the other two are sitting in the places where Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Kuroh are supposed to be. Qin Yu, Di Jian and Di Jian are leading the 16 guardians of the Red Blood Cave as well as the squad leaders of the guards. They are listening to the orders of the 3 cave masters.
"Cave master Qin Yu, your 2nd brother and 3rd brother are not very powerful." Di Qing, who is sitting in the middle, asks Qin Yu.
Hou Fei scratches his ears and scratches his cheeks. He simply pays no attention to the 3 majesties sitting above him. Di Qing does not know that Qin Yu has already ordered Hou Fei and Kuroh to restrain their auras while releasing their own energy. Di Qing and the others naturally discover that Hou Fei is at the late stage of Yuanying and Kuroh is at the middle stage of Yuanying.
"Your Majesty, don't judge my 2nd brother because he is at the late stage of Yuanying. He belongs to a different clan of water apes and is exceptionally talented. He can compete with early Dongxu stage experts. My 3rd brother is also extremely formidable in the eagle clan, second only to the Golden Flame eagle. "Qin Yu says on behalf of Hou Fei and Kuroh.
Hearing Qin Yu's words, a hint of disdain appears in the eyes of the 3 majesties.
Both Fiery-eyed Water Apes and Xiao Hei are extremely rare demonic beasts. According to Uncle Lan, there is only one Fiery-eyed Water Ape in the entire underwater Xiuyao world. Moreover, Hou Fei has restrained his aura so how can the 3 majesties possibly see that Hou Fei is not ordinary?
Instead of hiding his power completely, it is better to slightly reveal it. Qin Yu just said that Hou Fei is comparable to an early Dongxu stage expert.
The 3 majesties do not care about this little bit of power at all.
"Those guardians who entered the underground secret rooms and saw the traces of the battle, come out." Di Qing shouts.
Immediately, the 3 black turtle brothers, Wu Tong and Wu Feng, the 2 snake women Yan Qing and Xi Yan, Teng Bi and Ya Zhong all go forward. In front of the 3 majesties of the Nine Spirits Hall, these 9 guardians are not arrogant at all. All of them are very respectful.
"Let's talk through holy sense communication. Don't worry about your words being heard by others. But … don't lie either, because I'm going to ask all 9 of you. If I find out that the answer is different, then both of you will die! "
Di Qing says in a cold voice.
The hearts of the 9 guardians tremble.
Qin Yu also frowns. He immediately takes a step forward and says: "Your majesty, if one of these 9 guardians is lying but the other doesn't, won't that be harming the one who is telling the truth?" At this moment, Qin Yu has to at least put in a little effort for his people.
"Cave master Qin Yu, stand down or die!"
Di Jian, who has been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opens them and shouts coldly at Qin Yu. His eyes are filled with ice-cold killing intent.
"Big brother, this guy is too strong. Even if I go berserk, I'm not sure I can beat him. You'd better bear with it. "At this moment, the brutal Hou Fei unexpectedly sends a message to Qin Yu to comfort him. Qin Yu has no choice but to clench his teeth and take a step back.
Di Jian takes a look at Qin Yu then closes his eyes again to rest.
Di Luan and Di Qing are in charge of this matter. This time, Di Jian has come here with his strongest force to prevent anything from happening. In the view of the Nine Spirits Hall, if Old Freak Three-Eyed of the Blue River Province and the overlord of the Blue Dragon Temple had not come here in person, it would have been really impossible for them to deal with Di Jian.
The nine Protectors were all very nervous.
None of them dares to lie because if one of them does, all of them will die.
Di Qing's holy sense has covered the 9 guardians. If they secretly communicate with each other through holy sense communication, Di Qing will definitely be able to detect their holy sense fluctuations.
Time goes by minute by minute.
However, the whole hall is terrifyingly quiet.
"Next." Di Qing says coldly. At the moment, Zhuang Zhong, who was the first to be questioned, is sweating profusely. Even though he has already been questioned, he is still in danger. If the others give different answers, they will all die together with Zhuang Zhong!
Time goes by minute by minute.
All the guardians have been questioned. At this moment, Qin Yu is having the hardest time.
"Big brother, the people of the Nine Spirits Hall are really f * cking bastards. Aren't they annoying? If they piss me off, I'll smash them to death with my stick first. Big brother, you kill that early Dongxu stage expert. Let's join hands and give the strongest one a good beating!"
Hou Fei is obviously a bit impatient facing this silent interrogation.
This is because nobody knows what Di Qing and Di Luan have asked and what they have learned.
Di Qing and Di Luan's threats in the beginning have obviously worked. 8 guardians have been questioned in a row without any problems. Now it is the 9th guardian, Ba Jian, one of the 3 black turtle brothers, who is being questioned.
Boom!
Di Qing suddenly waves his hand. A purple beam of light shoots out. Without being able to resist, Ba Jian is blown to pieces.
"Humph, you even dared to lie." Di Qing suddenly stands up and glances at the other 8 guardians.
They immediately turn deathly pale. A hint of fierceness flashes through Teng Bi's eyes: "Your Majesty, we didn't lie. If the 8 of us who didn't lie are going to be killed just because he lied, we'll never accept it even if we die."
"Stop looking!"
Di Jian suddenly opens his eyes and shouts violently.
A sound wave is shot out from Di Jian's mouth at a frighteningly fast speed. Teng Bi's face changes color greatly at once. He hurriedly shakes his body, trying to dodge. However, the sound wave is too fast so it still hits Teng Bi's body. Teng Bi is sent flying. He then falls on the ground and vomits 2 mouthfuls of blood.
Teng Bi is seriously injured!
A late Dongxu stage Purple Demon aquatic dragon is definitely comparable to a Kongming stage Xiuxianist. Only a shout is enough to seriously injure Teng Bi. The other 8 guardians' faces immediately darken. They understand that if the 3 majesties want to kill them, they will have absolutely no power to resist.
"Your Majesty!"
Qin Yu also speaks. He looks coldly at the 3 majesties above.
A faint cold smile appears on the corners of Di Luan's mouth. He reaches out his hand to stop Di Jian, who is about to fly into a rage, saying at once: "Since cave master Qin Yu has spoken, all right, just now the last guardian must have lied. We won't implicate the other 8 guardians."
Yan Qing and the other guardians immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
However, they simply don't know that the last guardian, Ba Jian, did not lie at all. His answer is no different from that of the previous 8 guardians.
