It was the first time in tens of thousands of years that such a horrible murder case had happened in Shangjing City, the core of the Empire!
The Emperor was furious, and he ordered a thorough investigation!
To be able to kill so many people in one night and even silence those who were imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, how powerful was this murderer?
After causing such a huge commotion, how could there not be any clues to be found?
However, there were no clues at all from the four noble families.
Of the three squads of guards in the prison, two squads committed suicide by consuming poison, while the last squad of more than fifty people was completely annihilated by the experts. Not a single person was left alive!
The Emperor was so angry that he smashed a cup in the palace!
"Investigate! No matter what, we must find the murderer! "
The reason why he said he wanted to find the murderer was because …
Outside the walls of the Lu Family and the Bai Family, someone wrote a few words, "Those who implicated the Heavenly King of the Right, die!"
How could these words not cause people to have wild and fanciful thoughts?
Was it to avenge the Heavenly King of the Right?
Was that why they did this?
Yes, yes, if they were not the right-hand men of the Heavenly King of the Right, how could they have such power and guts?
Countless people couldn't help but think!
However, the more he thought about it, this matter, this method, wasn't it a little too vicious?
On the other hand, the Nian Family, who had been saying that they would seek justice for the Heavenly King of the Right, were all dumbfounded.
In the whole of Shangjing City, the Nian Family, as the second most powerful family, was furious. They said that they would kill these families to avenge the Heavenly King of the Right.
They even said that they would distribute the family property after they killed these families: auction and donation!
Now, everyone from the four clans was dead. They were all dead. They were all dead. They were all dead!
Just like what the Nian Family said, the Nian Family was really sharp. Their words carried enormous weight, and they acted decisively and decisively!
The Nian Family became like a pile of yellow mud that fell into their pants. Even if it wasn't sh * t, it was sh * t!
What the f * ck was this …
Everyone in the Nian Family was depressed. They had no one to vent their frustrations to.
The reason why he didn't mention it was because the Nian Family was one of the few families in Shangjing City who could do all this without anyone noticing!
They had the power, the ability, the manpower, and the power to do all this!
The most important thing was that they still had a motive! — — It was just released a few days ago!
Everything seemed to be a perfect match, seamless and flawless!
The Nian Family was the scapegoat for all of this.
No matter how he washed it, it was impossible to wash it clean. No matter how he argued, it was difficult to distinguish between the two.
However, the Nian family knew very well that they didn't do it!
The old master of the Nian family was so angry that he smashed the entire study!
"Who did it?!"
The old patriarch's roar almost blew the roof off!
"We didn't do anything! It wasn't us! "
That was the sentence that the Nian family repeated the most during their argument.
However, not many people were willing to believe it.
Everyone in Shang Jing City agreed that even if the Nian family didn't do it, they must have something to do with it!
How could there be such a coincidence?
You guys just released the news that you were going to destroy them, and they were destroyed … Then you guys said that it had nothing to do with you guys … Do you think we are fools?
If he did it, then so be it. He actually pretended to be wronged. Who was he trying to show?
Where was the responsibility of a big family?
You Dongtian, the King of the Right, was addicted to shifting the blame every day. However, this time, the Nian family who stood up for him took the blame. They didn't even know who did it. They were just as innocent as those who were blamed by the King of the Right.
The old master of the Nian family was about to vomit blood.
Because …
Some of his old friends even came out of their seclusion to have a long talk with the old master.
He patted the old master's shoulder earnestly and said, "Old Master Nian … I have to say that this matter is a little too much …"
The old master was so angry that he was about to have a brain hemorrhage, but he still tried to defend himself …
"It wasn't my family who did it."
"I know, I know. Of course it wasn't your family. "
"It really wasn't my family. I swear to God!"
"I understand, I understand. Don't worry. Although it's a big deal, those people … are all criminals. They deserve to die. Nothing serious will happen. It's just that this method is too vicious. It's against the harmony of heaven …"
"… It really wasn't my family who did it!"
"… Why are you so anxious? Do you think I can report you? I understand, I understand. Isn't it better for people to know about it than to see it? "
"…"
The old master picked up the broom and angrily threw out his old friend who had been with him for one thousand and seven hundred years!
"It really wasn't my family who did this …"
"It really wasn't!"
…
Zuo Xiaoduo and Zuo Xiaonian were in Zuo Xiaonian's room. They looked at each other, speechless for a long time.
But now, all the clues that were on the surface had been cut off overnight with a snap!
Zuo Xiaoduo's original intention in coming to Shang Jing was to settle accounts with the four influential families. However, as soon as he arrived, the four influential families were all dead!
If the Nian family was the number one suspect in the destruction of the four influential families, then the number two suspect would be Zuo Xiaoduo!
Cough, if it weren't for the fact that Zuo Xiaoduo was weak, had a simple background, and didn't have enough resources at hand, the Nian family would have been ranked as the number one suspect!
Of course, that was what Zuo Xiaoduo was thinking.
His chest was filled with hatred. His first thought was to pick up the sledgehammer and smash the sky red with blood. He didn't care if they were innocent or not. He just wanted to kill them and make a river of blood. He wanted to kill every single one of them.
However, the reality was that —
He didn't have time to do anything. The sledgehammer was still in the space ring. Their entire families were gone!
Although there wasn't a river of blood, the four influential families were all dead. They died more cleanly than if Zuo Xiaoduo had really killed them!
Zuo Xiao Duo even rejoiced that the two of them had some tricks up their sleeves and left the scene early. Otherwise, if they really met the people from the government who arrived later, it would be the same as being caught red-handed. They would be the best scapegoats and would not be able to escape!
This whole thing …
"This whole thing is so strange. It's so unusual!"
The more Zuo Xiaonian thought about it, the more frightened she felt. "Xiao Duo, this is so unusual. Think about it. If you think about it carefully, how big of a trap is this? How many connections, manpower, and material forces do they have to be able to set up such a trap so thoroughly and flawlessly? "
Zuo Xiaoduo was silent for a long time. After thinking for a long time, he took out a large piece of paper and started to write and draw, trying to figure out the whole thing.
He really missed Li Chenglong now. If Li Chenglong were here, he would be able to straighten everything out quickly and trace back to the origin through the details. However, when it came to him, he needed to deduce it bit by bit. He couldn't be sure if there were any mistakes that he hadn't considered.
"Yeah, it's really terrifying."
"What's more, we don't even know the real purpose and ultimate goal of the other party. We don't know what they want to do by setting up such a big trap."
"But it's undeniable that we're already in the middle of it. It's hard to extricate ourselves from it."
Zuo Xiaoduo first drew a small circle in the middle. "This is the other party's deployment in Shangjing. The central point is here. The other party has an extremely large and impressive force in Shangjing. This force can be said to cover all aspects. Perhaps, in some aspects, it's even stronger than the government's army. This is certain. "
"If not for this, they wouldn't have been able to wipe out the Four Great Clans at the same time. They didn't even let go of the people in the prison. They didn't leave any traces behind and ensured that no one would be able to trace them. It's really amazing."
"In Shangjing, the center of Yanwu, to be able to come and go without a trace, and to have such a huge and meticulous plan to wipe out the Four Great Clans, this force, even at the most conservative estimate, has infiltrated many government departments …"
"This force, which has always been in the dark, has always been feared by everyone. So far, it has only revealed a part of its full strength. Because, after this incident, everyone is bound to realize that there is such a force hidden in Shangjing. As for the true strength of the other party, it's hard to say whether they've already revealed the majority of it or just the tip of the iceberg. "
"But, with the other party's meticulous and thorough plan, I estimate that this part of their strength that they have to reveal is only a small part of their strength. And even if it's just a part of their strength, it's still not considered as being exposed. After all, until now, there hasn't been any flaws that can be traced."
"As for the rest of their strength, it's still in hibernation. There's still room to maneuver …"
Zuo Xiao Duo raised his head and pondered hard, racking his brain.
"If this matter really has something to do with me, and I just escaped from the Umno Alliance's Demonic Forest, then the first thing they did was to use the Dragons Fighting for the Heritage incident to set up a trap and kill Teacher Qin … What kind of relationship would there be between the two?"
"Or should I say … How big is the relationship between the two?"
Zuo Xiaoduo frowned and said, "This hidden force is so huge, and its hiding strength is equally amazing. It's hard to find out. Could it be the work of a Senior Magus of the Umno Alliance?"
Zuo Xiaonian was shocked, "Can this matter involve a Senior Magus?"
"It's possible, but it's also a little impossible."
Zuo Xiaoduo murmured, "It's possible. The Umno Alliance and the Astral Souls have been opposing each other for countless years. It's natural for them to send spies to the enemy's territory. The Umno Alliance's spies that appeared in Phoenix City in the past are examples. Phoenix City is a small border city, but the Umno Alliance's spies could be so powerful. If it's Shang Jing, the capital city of the human race, how can the Umno Alliance's spies be small?"
"However, the Umno Alliance's spies in Shang Jing are very powerful, but the Umno Alliance's Senior Magi don't seem to have any evil intentions towards me. For example, Senior Magi Wudu, Senior Magus Zhu Mang, Senior Magus Dan Kong, Senior Magus Bing Ming … At least these four Senior Magi don't have a reason to kill me … If they wanted to kill me, they wouldn't have let me go back to the Astral Souls!"
