Qin Yi's face was suddenly filled with a murderous aura.
Although he already knew that the previous Palace Master had died on the deserted island where Uncle Zhao had stayed, he felt that the previous Palace Master's death had many implications. However, he felt that the previous Palace Master's death must have had many implications.
He did not think that this matter had nothing to do with the other three sects.
Furthermore, the Cloud Sea Harbor's Zhao Clan, which was the clan that Uncle Zhao had been in previously, had originally belonged to one of the Three Great Five Cauldron Sects.
"According to the clues that Miss Mu gave, there is indeed something very strange!"
Qin Yi frowned and said, "Among all the corpses that were discovered, almost all the corpses were less than thirty years old. Since Miss Mu has specifically mentioned this point, what exactly does it mean? "
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he said, "That's right! Back then, when the sect's geniuses went out for experiential training, there was an Academy Elder leading the group. Furthermore, they all went missing together, and there was no news of them at all. If everyone died, then there should be an Elder's corpse at the scene. However, Miss Mu did not find a corpse. In other words … "
Qin Yi did not continue speaking, but the coldness in his eyes had already reached its limit.
Although it was just a guess, he had a hunch that the Elder whose corpse had not been found was definitely a spy in that operation, a traitor of the Academy!
"If that elder hasn't died yet, then he'll be the biggest breakthrough point."
Qin Yi frowned again. "Although I have a clue, it is easier said than done to find a person in this vast Cloud Sea Domain. Furthermore, if my guess is correct, that person might hide out of guilt. This undoubtedly increases the difficulty of the search! "
The Cloud Sea Domain might not be a particularly large region, but given Qin Yi's abilities, it was almost impossible for him to find a person in this vast territory.
Furthermore, a hundred years was simply too long.
It was so long that it could practically change the entire world, much less track down a person's whereabouts.
"It seems that I won't be able to make any progress on my own."
After all, Qin Yi had not been here for a long time. Furthermore, the incident had happened a long time ago. It was like searching for a needle in a haystack for him alone. "Right now, I can only ask the people who knew about this incident and tell me about that elder."
The best candidate that Qin Yi could think of was naturally Great Elder Bai He. After all, he was the second elder of the academy back then. In the academy, his words carried a lot of weight. By sending an elder to lead the team, he might be able to obtain more information.
"Unfortunately, the Great Elder has already gone to the auction."
Qin Yi shook his head and said, "It seems like we need to find someone else to ask for information."
But who should he ask?
To be honest, he found it hard to make a decision at this moment. The academy had been in decline for a hundred years, and there weren't many people left.
Qiao Yu and the others were the only ones they were familiar with. However, Qiao Yu and the others did not participate in the academy's training at that time. This was enough to prove that their positions in the academy were not considered high and the things they knew were ultimately limited.
"Perhaps, I can try my luck with Master."
Among the elders in the academy, the only one who had a good relationship with Qin Yi was Duanmu Cheng.
However, to be honest, he did not dare to place too much hope on Duanmu Cheng.
He was simply too clear about this old fellow's character. His mind was filled with alchemy and he did not care about anything else. His interpersonal relationships were also a complete mess.
If Qin Yi wanted to search for relevant information about what happened that year from him, he had to admit that Qin Yi really had some doubts.
"Forget it. After all, Master was considered to have a higher position in the academy back then. If I can't find any information from him, I can only wait for the Great Elder to return. "
Thinking of this, he did not delay any further and rushed to the mountain where Duanmu Cheng's cave abode was located.
…
"The training that happened a hundred years ago?"
After hearing Qin Yi's question, the smile on Duanmu Cheng's face disappeared instantly. Obviously, he was also unwilling to mention this sad event.
Qin Yi explained, "Master, I have some clues now. If I know more information, I may be able to restore the truth of the incident that happened that year. "
Duanmu Cheng looked at Qin Yi suspiciously for a long time. After a while, he sighed and said, "Then what do you want to know from me?"
Qin Yi was delighted. He could tell that Duanmu Cheng knew some details about the incident that happened that year. Immediately, he asked hurriedly, "Master, do you know who the Elder who led the team was and what his character was like?"
Duanmu Cheng frowned and said, "Qian Bao was an annoying fellow."
"Qian Bao?" Qin Yi repeated the name and continued to ask, "What kind of person was he?"
Duanmu Cheng pondered for a while and said, "This fellow was the Third Elder of the Academy. He was quite strong, easygoing, and steady. He was loved by everyone!"
Hearing this, Qin Yi was a little confused. "Since this person was not bad, why did you say that he was an annoying fellow, Master?"
Duanmu Cheng shook his head and said, "When I look at people, I always follow my intuition. I don't know why, but I just don't like him! Perhaps because of this, I never had much interaction with him. Without a deep relationship, I naturally would not understand him better, and my impression of him would not change. "
On this point, Qin Yi agreed with it. After all, Duanmu Cheng was a proud person. How could he put down his pride and deliberately get close to someone he disliked?
Moreover, something as mysterious as intuition could sometimes be very accurate.
After all, character and style could sometimes be faked with superb acting skills.
"Qin Yi, according to what you said, could it be that the incident that happened a hundred years ago had something to do with Qian Bao?"
Duanmu Cheng looked at Qin Yi and said, "Could it be that that fellow was a traitor?"
Qin Yi shook his head and said, "I don't have enough evidence now. Everything is just my guess."
Without a hundred percent certainty, even Qin Yi would not easily come to a conclusion.
"Is there a need to think? That fellow must be a traitor! "
Duanmu Cheng's emotions gradually became agitated. He clenched his fist and said, "If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have thought of it. Before that fellow met with the Luofu Sect, he had contact with the people from the Luofu Sect!"
