Chapter 432: Qin Mo’s Cause of Death (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“With your talent in weapons, apart from our Qianqi Mountain, no other faction in the entire Xingluo Territory can guide you. Staying in our Qianqi Mountain is definitely the best choice.”
Swoosh!
Xiao Shi sheathed his sword. “Junior came here to acknowledge Elder Qin Mo as my master. Senior, please fulfill my wish.”
Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain fell silent. He sighed. “Qin Mo is already dead.”
“Dead!?” Xiao Shi looked up in disbelief. His face was pale as if he had been struck by lightning.
“As the saying goes, family scandals should not be aired in public. A dignified elder actually died silently in our territory. This matter is more or less a huge humiliation to our Qianqi Mountain, so we didn’t make it public.
“Since you’ve received Qin Mo’s guidance, you can be considered his disciple to a certain extent. You have the right to know about this. However, before I kill the murderer with my own hands, you have to keep it a secret.” Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain said in a deep voice.
Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat. Hearing the other party’s words, there really seemed to be a clue!
“How… did Elder Qin Mo die?” Xiao Shi’s eyes were red as he clenched his fists. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was filled with hatred.
Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain pondered for a moment and said, “In our Xingluo Territory, only the Dream Witch lineage of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect can kill people from a thousand miles away without a sound. In other words… dream killing.”
The moment the Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain said that, Xiao Shi’s mind immediately rumbled. In other words, Qin Mo really died in a dream?!
“What is the Dream Witch lineage? What is dream killing?” Xiao Shi hurriedly asked.
“To put it simply, the Dream Witch lineage is a very special faction. They are good at guiding people into dreams and killing people in them. Once you enter their dreams, it will be very dangerous. Previously, I felt the residual aura of a dream in Qin Mo’s room. He must have entered the dream of the Dream Witch.
“It’s just…
“With Qin Mo’s cultivation, if one wants to forcefully pull him into a dream, he has to be at least a Dream Witch above the Martial Demon Realm. Based on my understanding, there are no Dream Witch above the Martial Demon Realm in the entire Xingluo Territory. This matter is still suspicious.” The Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain said.
Originally, with the other party’s level, he would not be able to come into contact with these. However, the Qianqi Mountain’s Patriarch felt that he could use this matter, use the culprit, and use this person’s hatred to guide him to join the Qianqi Mountain.
Therefore, the more detailed he was, the more the other party would know, only then could he promote the other party to the greatest extent and join the Qianqi Mountain.
“Apart from Dream Witch, is there no other possibility?” Xiao Shi needed to confirm this now. Although the Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain felt the remnant aura of the dream in Qin Mo’s room, that might be a dream that Qin Mo had entered when he met the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
It was not the real cause of Qin Mo’s death.
“Only Dream Witch has the ability to kill a Martial Soul Realm expert from an extremely far distance, at least in our Xingluo Territory.” Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain expressed his affirmation.
First of all, the murderer who killed Qin Mo definitely did not sneak into Qianqi Mountain to kill him. No expert above the Martial Soul Realm could sneak into the Qianqi Mountain to kill under the nose of the Patriarch.
Secondly, it ruled out that this matter was done by the experts of Qianqi Mountain. As long as someone attacked within the range of Qianqi Mountain, it was impossible to hide from the spiritual sense of the Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain.
Only the dream of the Dream Witch could make Qin Mo die silently. That was why the Patriarch of Qianqi Mountain did not notice it in his territory.
“If Qin Mo died in a dream, there are only two possibilities for the murderer. One is the Dream Witch of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. The other is Xiang Zizhen!!”
Xiao Shi was more inclined to the second option.
Through Wu Muzhen’s previous investigation, he already knew that among the eight members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, including Qin Mo, there were a total of two people who were from the Dream Witch lineage.
However, these two disciples of the Dream Witch lineage had not reached the Martial Soul Realm. Even if he wanted to kill Qin Mo in the dream, he could not let Qin Mo be killed without any resistance.
Xiao Shi knew Qin Mo’s death the best. There was no painful expression on his face, nor were there any external injuries. He left very peacefully. If he resisted and struggled in the dream, there would be pain and struggle on his face.
From this, it could be inferred that it was very likely that Qin Mo would be instantly killed in the dream. Only Martial Demon Realm experts could do it. Or perhaps, it was not impossible for these two people from the Dream Witch lineage to join forces.
However, Xiao Shi felt that the possibility of it being Xiang Zizhen was higher. Xiang Zizhen was the successor of the Holy See. He could also use dreams. The priests of the Holy See all wielded the power of the Four Symbols. As the only Martial Demon Realm expert, and with Qin Mo’s trust in him, Xiang Zizhen had the ability to silently kill Qin Mo in the dream.
“The suspicion actually returned to Xiang Zizhen.” Xiao Shi frowned.
In this way, it conflicted with his previous views. Be it Xiang Zizhen’s personality, motive, or the fact that he did not stomp him to death previously, he did not look like a wolf.
“How troublesome!” Xiao Shi did not expect Qin Mo’s death to be so complicated. Flowever, he was basically certain at the moment. The person who killed Qin Mo was most likely between Xiang Zizhen and the two disciples of the Dream Witch lineage.
Firstly, only they could use the dream. Secondly, only they could make Qin Mo take the initiative to enter their dreams.
Although Xiao Shi had never felt that Xiang Zizhen was the murderer, at the moment, Xiang Zizhen was the most suspicious.
“If Xiang Zizhen is the murderer, it won’t be easy for me to hammer him to death.” Xiao Shi thought of how the disciples of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect really trusted Xiang Zizhen.
He felt that no matter what he said, they would shake their heads as they spoke, I won’t listen. I won’t listen.
The difficulty level is high! He had to have sufficient evidence to kill him with a single hammer.
Xiao Shi’s main body was brainstorming. As for the clone, he was doing his best to perform. He had played a furious young man whose master had been killed and had nowhere to vent his hatred to perfection.
Coupled with the strong guidance of the Qianqi Mountain’s Patriarch, it was as if he could not take revenge if he did not join the Qianqi Mountain. He successfully made this angry genius youth join the Qianqi Mountain.
“Since Xiang Zizhen is the most suspicious now, I have to think of a way to investigate him.” Xiao Shi knew that regardless of whether Xiang Zizhen was the murderer, he could only start from him.
But if he wanted to investigate him, he had to get close to him. With Xiang Zizhen’s identity, there would more or less be a certain danger. After all, Xiang Zizhen’s identity in the Xingluo Province was the commander of the Xingluo Army.
If he wanted to investigate him, he might have to join the Xingluo Army. This was equivalent to two people from the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect running to the Lord of Xingluo Territory to fight with their wits and bravery.
With Xiao Shi’s stable personality, he instinctively resisted such an exciting thing. Even if he created a new clone, his main body could not be too far away. This way, he could ensure that he could stabilize his soul for his avatar at any time.
After some thought, Xiao Shi felt that he had to figure this out. He could only approach Xiang Zizhen to investigate. If Xiang Zizhen was the murderer, he would find evidence to hammer him to death and remove the tumor for the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
Once this matter succeeded, not only could he obtain the trust of the disciples of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, but he could also resolve a crisis for the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
If Xiang Zizhen was not the murderer, he could guide him from behind the scenes and provide him with information. He could use him to find the real murderer and clear his name. At that time, he could also obtain the trust of the other members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
No matter what, since he had boarded the ship of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, he had the obligation to investigate this matter.
Although it looked dangerous, Xiao Shi was still very confident in his hidden ability. “Although my current cultivation is inferior to these members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, when it comes to hiding, they have to call me Ancestral Master..”
