Chapter 614 Rumors, tragedy, and a mole
Three days ago, the four major ministries and departments had already released the news through some channels.
With the murderer's well-informed knowledge, it would not be difficult to know the whereabouts of these powerful men from the four major ministries.
Next, all you need to do is act step by step and wait for the murderer hiding in the dark to show up.
As for the destination of everyone's trip, it is naturally the place where the Demon Slayer Division and the eight souls of the six gates disappeared.
First, using the secret method of backtracking, you might be able to find some clues.
Secondly, it was naturally a show for the murderer who might be waiting there.
After leaving the small farmhouse that contained the teleportation formation, but which looked like an inconspicuous farmyard from the outside, Zhang Shiyan, who was walking at the front, patted the spirit beast bag on his waist.
After a moment, a stream of light flashed.
A palm-sized bird with inconspicuous gray feathers chirped and flew onto Zhang Shiyan's shoulder.
"follow me."
Zhang Shiyan flew out in the northeast direction first, and everyone followed him in formation.
After flying hundreds of miles, everyone landed in a green cedar forest.
The traces on the ground have long been smoothed away, and to the naked eye, there is nothing unusual at all.
However, Zhong Changsheng could sense that there were several weak traces of true energy remaining here.
These true energy auras are diverse and very mixed.
However, it is basically the strength of the Yuanshen realm.
There is only one path, which is obviously much more tyrannical than the others.
"Ok?"
"Not a demon?"
Over the years, Zhong Changsheng has signed up many powerful people from the magic sect. Zhong Changsheng basically knows all the magic techniques and methods, and naturally understands them very well.
However, the aura left here is obviously different from the auras of those powerful demon sects that Zhong Changsheng has seen.
This was quite different from what he had expected.
"After all, the top ten demon sects are only forces on the surface. The Kyushu world is vast, and there may be some forces hidden in the dark, but their strength is not weaker than the top ten demon sects."
On the other side, Liang Xuzi stood still in the void, waved his hand, and sprinkled a ball of powder emitting light blue fluorescence.
After the powder fell, hundreds of light spots of different sizes appeared in the forest where everyone was.
Xu Changqing looked at another strong man from the Demon Slayer Division, found an area with the largest light spot, made seals with both hands, and used the method of backtracking.
After a moment, a curtain of light rose above the earth, with streaks of light and shadow flowing endlessly in it.
However, it was okay not to read it. After reading it, everyone’s brows furrowed even more tightly.
At the beginning, the picture in the light curtain showed a group of people walking through the mountains and forests.
After that, the picture above the light curtain suddenly became blurred.
Above the void, only a series of chaotic lights and shadows flashed. When the blurry lights and shadows became clear again, only eight cold corpses were left on the screen.
"Damn."
Xu Changqing's face looked slightly ugly.
"There is something hiding the secret of the other party. It seems that he knows the operating style of the four major ministries very well."
The Great Zhou Dynasty has always shown no tolerance for those who dare to challenge the dignity of the divine dynasty.
Therefore, whenever someone from the imperial court is killed outside, the Divine Dynasty will definitely trace the source and take revenge with thunderous means.
In order to avoid showing off their flaws and causing unnecessary trouble, those powerful people who understand the style of the divine dynasty will use special means to cover up the secrets before killing people.
However, things that conceal the secrets of heaven are extremely rare after all, and it is impossible for ordinary people to possess them.
Therefore, there have never been many people who dared to take action against the people of the Divine Dynasty.
Liang Xuzi said: "Zhang Shiyan, can you sense the identity of the murderer?"
Zhang Shiyan shook his head and said with some confusion: "It seems that he is not from the Demon Sect."
Zhong Changsheng nodded secretly in his mind. The other party's statement coincided with his own judgment.
"how come?"
The expressions of the other people also changed.
Looking at Jiuzhou, only people from the top ten demon sects dare to stand up and compete with the strong men of the divine dynasty.
They really can't think of anyone else who dares to be so bold!
"If you're not from one of the top ten demon sects, could you be a powerful person from the hidden world?"
Another powerful person from the Demon Slayer Division frowned.
"It's not impossible."
In the past, when people from the imperial court were performing tasks, they had accidentally bumped into some hidden powerhouses.
The fate of some people is indeed not good.
"If this is the case, our idea of luring the snake out of its hole will probably come to nothing."
The white-haired old man from the Heavenly Prison Division said.
The powerful man in hiding is alone. After getting rid of the people in the court, he will naturally not stay here any longer.
Protected by treasures that conceal the secret, it will be even more difficult to find the murderer after he leaves.
After all, unlike the Demon Sect, they most likely did not target the imperial court intentionally, but just had conflicts with the Six Sects and the Demon Slayer Division for some reason.
After killing the opponent, he would naturally fly away if he did not want to be chased by the court.
Finding such people is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"will not."
At this moment, Zhong Changsheng suddenly spoke.
"This conflict should not be accidental."
"To be precise, this should be a deliberate killing."
"There should be some kind of deep hatred between the person who took action and the court. If given a chance, he will definitely show up again!"
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhong Changsheng.
Xu Changqing was the first to speak: "Why are you so sure?"
Zhong Changsheng raised his head and looked at the light curtain above the void.
"Look at those bodies."
"Their fatal injury is the little bit of red between their eyebrows!"
"Obviously, several of them were killed in one blow, and their bodies and souls died at the same time in an instant."
Zhang Shiyan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"But their bodies were in tatters and covered with scars. It was clear that someone whipped them to vent their anger after their deaths!"
"Zhong Changsheng is right, this is definitely not an accidental conflict, but a deliberate killing."
"Someone figured out their route and set up an ambush here, waiting to kill them."
"There may be a traitor among our four major departments!"
When he spoke, his tone became a bit colder.
Because the people who died before were people from the Demon Slayer Division and the Six Gates, it was very likely that the traitor was hiding in one of these two major forces.
Of course, it is also possible that there is more than one traitor, including both the Demon Slayer Division and the Six Doors.
Everyone felt horrified at the thought of this possibility.
The tasks of the four major departments and the six doors are top secret. Even the people inside will not know about the tasks before they are released.
