Chapter 136 Discovery
Chapter 136 Discovery
"Come on, that's Yan Liuli, not just anyone. If you can protect yourself in her hands, you don't need to cultivate to be an immortal. She can crush you to death like crushing an ant, and you think she is a more powerful monster." Although An Yurong was praising Yan Liuli, there was no respect in her words, and she almost rolled her eyes to the sky.
That's right. Qin Shuxue suddenly felt that it didn't matter if she played with An Yurong. After all, An Yurong herself knew nothing, and Yan Liuli would not worry about leaks.
"Then should I still go look for Yan Xinhe?"
"You probably can't beat her. If you have other plans, don't go looking for her yet. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if she finds out."
Qin Shuxue thought about it and realized this was the truth. She pulled An Yurong to sit down and waited quietly for news from others.
Ying Yong found the cell with familiarity. Inside, a leading disciple was giving a lecture. The people guarding the cell didn't dare to say a word. So many people failed to stop Ying Yong. Ying Yong could hear that Yan Liuli had severely punished everyone. These people were crying helplessly.
It looked like there was no one inside, but even so, Ying Yong still squeezed in to check. There were some dark red bloodstains in the cell, and it seemed that sometimes severe punishments were used. Ying Yong had been in Chongyun Sect for a long time, and now he found it very hard to accept. Torture and abuse leading to a person's death was too inhumane. Although in fact, this method was also common in the palace, even innocent people would be skinned after entering the cell.
Ying Yong searched for a long time and confirmed that there was no forbidden technique to hide Xie Hongyuan, so he retreated. Before leaving, he even bumped into the leading disciple with malicious intent.
The inside suddenly became even more chaotic, with sounds of beating and screaming. Ying Yong shook his head, these people were still too sick. The Liuli Palace was like this from top to bottom, they had never had a good day, otherwise they would have come to Chongyun Sect to live for a few days, and they would probably never support Yan Liuli again.
At the same time, Situ Xiayan was looking for a secret passage according to the map given by Ju Jifeng. Liuli Palace was indeed full of women, and there might be a secret passage behind any dressing table. She flipped over a board and jumped into a big hole. It was very dark inside, so she summoned a ball of fire to barely illuminate the road ahead.
This place didn't look like anyone had been killed there. The passage was very clean, with very little dust. It looked like it was used very frequently. It was very empty inside, nothing special, just an ordinary road. Situ Xiayan listened to the noise outside vigilantly, fearing that someone would come to surround her, or that the exit was in some inconvenient place.
Fortunately, when she came out, she found that this was just an ordinary house. She looked at the map in confusion and found that it was indeed the only place. But this house did not look like a place where people lived. Although it was very clean, there were very few daily necessities, only the simplest utensils, and no decorations. It might be a man's room.
Situ Xiayan was a little confused. Could this be where Palace Master Yan's lover lived? But she had never heard who that man was. From the moment Yan Xinhe's identity was acknowledged, there had been many speculations, but it seemed that Yan Liuli had not acknowledged even one.
But it would be too hasty. Situ Xiayan felt around on the wall, she felt that this room might just be a cover.
Although the furnishings were simple, it was not easy to find the mechanism. Situ Xiayan even touched under the bed, but only felt a layer of dust. She shook her hands in disgust, and then the thousand paper cranes lit up.
Qin Shuxue and Ying Yong answered Heng Li's voice transmission at the same time. He was silent for a while and then said, "Xie Hongyuan...is dead."
"What?" Qin Shuxue was shocked. Yan Liuli acted too quickly. It was only a short while ago that she took action while listening to Xie Zhiyi telling a story?
"What do you mean? Xie Hongyuan died in Yan Liuli's room? Is she stupid? Is it not obvious enough? Where is the body? We can always tell whose weapon killed him. Bring the body back!" Ying Yong was also anxious at this moment. Everything happened too fast.
"As soon as I walked to the vicinity of Yan Liuli's room, I saw a lot of blood on the ground. I followed the path and found Yuqing and Yudai destroying the body. I tried to snatch it away, but Xie Hongyuan's body suddenly turned into powder and I couldn't pick it up."
What the hell, Hengli, you still have to be humorous at a time like this, hell jokes never get old, right?
"What kind of evil magic is this from the Liuli Palace?" Situ Xiayan was shocked. "Is this possible? It's ok to break a person into pieces, but isn't it a bit too much to turn him into a corpse?"
"I think maybe this is how they handled things that needed to be concealed in the past. No wonder our Chongyun Sect has never been able to catch any evidence against the Liuli Palace... But now there is really no evidence." Heng Li said as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He didn't know if this trick could be used on living people. If it could, everyone would be in great danger.
"What should I do now..." Qin Shuxue felt like every road she took led to a dead end. "This news must not be let out to Xie Zhiyi, otherwise she'll go crazy..."
"I can't care about so much now. Let's retreat first. It's impossible for Xie Hongyuan to come up with a solution. We'll talk about it when we come back."
"Wait a minute..." Situ Xiayan said in panic, "I heard someone's voice in this secret passage!"
Could it be that I encountered a trap when I was looking for the mechanism just now? Situ Xiayan broke out in a cold sweat. She began to find out the horror of this Liuli Palace. Yan Liuli was still sitting in the main seat presiding over the competition, but she was able to send out these teams to search so quickly. Did she know every part of the Liuli Palace well, or was there someone behind her manipulating all this?
Situ Xiayan quickly turned off the paper cranes and hid under the bed. She already had a formation, so this was safer.
As soon as she hid, she saw a group of people coming out of the secret passage mercilessly, each holding a musical instrument in their hands, searching everywhere. After searching in vain, the person in the lead picked up her recorder and started playing it. Situ Xiayan immediately realized that this was a controlled music.
Situ Xiayan tried her best to cover her ears, but the shrill sound of the recorder could not be blocked by covering her ears. Situ Xiayan felt that she wanted to crawl out uncontrollably until she stood in front of that person.
Seeing that she was about to be exposed, she made up her mind, gritted her teeth, condensed two icicles, and stabbed them into her ears, piercing her eardrums. Now she could no longer hear any sound.
This kind of pain was completely different from being injured in a fight. Situ Xiayan tried her best to endure the trembling of her whole body and bit her clothes tightly.
