Chapter 225 Catching the Murderer

In a quiet courtyard.

A figure landed lightly in the courtyard, and then came to the door of the room with light steps.

Open the door and walk into the room.

He quickly came to the cabinet in the room and took out something from the cabinet.

At this moment, her eyes suddenly condensed.

Turn around and look at a corner of the room.

"who?!"

A sharp voice sounded.

Somewhere in the corner of the room, Li Beifeng's figure appeared.

When she saw Li Beifeng, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

But the next second, a look of joy appeared on his face: "Are you back?"

Li Beifeng's face was calm.

He glanced at Zhou Qiuning but said nothing.

"What's wrong with you?"

Zhou Qiuning felt a little surprised: "When did you come back? How could you be...in my room?"

Li Beifeng still didn't speak.

The calm eyes revealed a light that seemed to see through her.

Zhou Qiuning seemed to have thought of something, and the smile on her face gradually faded.

"You...are you here to ask me to accuse you?"

At this time, Li Beifeng finally spoke.

He glanced at Zhou Qiuning calmly: "You are quite self-aware."

"I think you may have misunderstood..."

Zhou Qiuning shook her head, and when she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Li Beifeng.

"Zhou Qiuning, do you think I'm easy to deceive?"

Zhou Qiuning stared at Li Beifeng, and after a moment, she suddenly burst into laughter.

"Oh, it looks like you are much smarter than I thought!"

She blinked at Li Beifeng and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you."

Li Beifeng stared coldly at the girl in front of him.

Ever since he was chased last night, he gradually realized something was wrong.

Li Beifeng could not be really sure until he learned the news from the outside today.

He was taken advantage of by Zhou Qiuning.

Lu Chuan is not only the chief disciple of the Zhengyi Sect, but also the only son of the great elder of the Zhengyi Sect!

No wonder those guards were chasing Li Beifeng with all their might last night.

He almost confessed last night!

Originally, in Li Beifeng's plan, even Lu Chuan was the chief disciple of Zhengyi Sect. But in such a chaotic conference, killing a disciple of a sect would cause quite a stir, but he was confident of getting out.

No matter how outstanding Lu Chuan is, he is still just a disciple of the Zhengyi Sect.

The consequences of killing him are still within Li Beifeng's ability to bear.

But he never expected that Lu Chuan actually had another level of identity. He was the son of a great elder of the main sect...

This situation is completely different!

Killing a disciple is not a big deal, but the origin of this disciple... is not that simple.

This is exactly poking a hornet's nest.

No wonder those guards fought against Li Beifeng last night.

At the same time, Li Beifeng finally realized something.

If Lu Chuan is just the chief disciple of the Zhengyi Sect, and Zhou Qiuning wants to kill him, it can still be said that she is doing justice for heaven.

But when Lu Chuan still has such an identity, Zhou Qiuning still wants to kill him...

What on earth does she want to do?

Killing the only son of an upright sect... If there wasn't some ulterior secret, Li Beifeng would never believe it.

Therefore, Li Beifeng was finally sure.

He was taken advantage of by Zhou Qiuning!

…

"Yes, I did use you!"

Faced with Li Beifeng's questioning, Zhou Qiuning readily admitted.

"I just want to lend your hand to eradicate Lu Chuan!"

Looking at Li Beifeng's unkind eyes, Zhou Qiuning walked up to Li Beifeng and stared at Li Beifeng with her little face raised.

With a smile on his face, he squinted his eyes slightly and smiled: "Are you here to settle accounts with me?"

"What do you think?" Li Beifeng said coldly.

"Then I'm standing in front of you now. You want to kill or behead me, it's up to you!"

Zhou Qiuning simply raised her face and closed her eyes.

An attitude of I will just stand here and not resist, whatever you want to do.

Whatever he wants?

Li Beifeng glanced at Zhou Qiuning, what she thought was beautiful!

After a moment of silence, Li Beifeng said coldly: "I want a reasonable explanation!"

He was so dangerous last night that he almost fell into the hands of those guards.

He killed the only son of a great elder of a sect, what good would happen if he fell into the hands of those guards?

Therefore, after learning that he was being used, Li Beifeng immediately came back to find Zhou Qiuning to settle the account.

But I never expected that Zhou Qiuning would adopt a rogue attitude like I just took advantage of you.

Zhou Qiuning opened her eyes, her eyes flickered twice, and her expression was a little cute.

"What rational explanation do you want?"

"Why did you want to kill Lu Chuan?"

Li Beifeng stared at her.

"This..."

Zhou Qiuning thought for a moment: "I said I didn't like him...do you believe it?"

Li Beifeng said nothing and had no expression on his face.

"Oops, just kidding..."

She waved her hand: "If you want to say the reason, it's actually very simple... I have a grudge against him. To be precise, I have a grudge against Zheng Yimen!"

Li Beifeng frowned slightly.

He had previously known that although Zhou Qiuning was the second young lady of the Zhou family, she was sent to practice martial arts with a master when she was young.

It can be said that Zhou Qiuning is most likely to come from various sects in the world.

Therefore, it is not impossible to have a grudge against Zhengyi Sect.

This reason is completely reasonable.

However, Li Beifeng stared at Zhou Qiuning, and he still felt that something seemed to be wrong.

But he couldn't put it into words.

"The great elder of Zhengyi Sect, Lu Changxing, and I had a feud in the past!"

Seemingly seeing the suspicion on Li Beifeng's face, the girl shook her head again: "But I am not his opponent. So, I can only attack his son..."

She glanced at Li Beifeng and chuckled: "Besides, Lu Chuan is not a good guy. He has bullied men and women over the years, relying on the power of Zhengyi Sect, and I don't know how many small sects he has annexed and how many people's wives and daughters he has plundered... You killed him, and it can be regarded as acting on behalf of heaven, isn't it?"

Li Beifeng sneered: "Acting on behalf of heaven? I almost died last night!"

"Well... This is my negligence. I didn't expect that those people were so crazy..."

The girl's face She seemed to show some guilt. She looked at Li Beifeng, blinked her eyes, and whispered: "How about I compensate you?

Seeing that Li Beifeng did not speak.

The girl seemed to think of something, and a cunning look appeared in her eyes.

Then, she suddenly took two steps forward and got closer to Li Beifeng.

Then, she whispered: "As for money, I think you have it, and as for fame, I can't give it to you... Then, I can only use myself to compensate you, how about..."

Li Beifeng subconsciously took two steps back and stared at the girl in front of him warily.

"Hahaha..."

Seeing Li Beifeng's reaction, Zhou Qiuning smiled brightly.

"Look at you, you are scared like this..."

"Is it funny?"

Li Beifeng glanced coldly at the woman who intended to take advantage of her.

"Isn't it funny?"

The girl's eyes were full of smiles: "Are you so afraid of me? Is it... am I not good-looking?"

"What's the use of your good looks? "

Li Beifeng said calmly: "I'm pretty too."

"So what?"

"I'm afraid you'll take advantage of me."

"..."

The smile on the girl's face froze slightly.

She stared at Li Beifeng for a few seconds, then nodded with certainty: "You're more shameless than I thought."

"So, put away your tricks, they're useless to me!"

Li Beifeng said coldly.

"Really useless?"

The girl seemed a little unconvinced.

She blinked and looked at Li Beifeng, her eyes cunning: "Don't I have any attraction to you, and you don't have a little bit of attraction to me?"

"No!"

"I don't believe it! "

Zhou Qiu Ning didn't believe it.

Isn't there any attraction in the eyes of this guy?

She suspected that Li Beifeng was lying.

But she couldn't see any lust for herself in Li Beifeng's eyes.

This made her a little discouraged.

Is there no attraction in the eyes of this guy?

Impossible!

"I suggest you don't play with fire!"

Seeing that Zhou Qiu Ning seemed to want to do something out of the ordinary, Li Beifeng glanced at her coldly: "You almost killed me last night... I don't plan to settle this account with you for the time being. But from today on, there is no connection between you and me!"

After he killed Lu Chuan last night, he had already repaid Zhou Qiu Ning's favor.

From now on, there is no relationship between them.

After that, Li Beifeng turned and walked out the door.

"Hey, are you really so ruthless? "

Li Beifeng's sudden reaction made Zhou Qiu Ning slightly stunned.

For some reason, a sense of loss inexplicably rose in his heart.

This guy... actually said that he would break up with me... Too heartless, right?

Li Beifeng walked out of the room without looking back.

There was no relationship between him and Zhou Qiu Ning anymore.

If Zhou Qiu Ning still wanted to pester him, he would not have to be polite.

Just when Li Beifeng was about to return to his room, there was a commotion outside the courtyard door.

Then, several figures appeared at the door.

At the same time, Li Beifeng saw several familiar figures.

Disciples of Zhengyi Sect!

In the crowd, a servant of the manor came forward: "Young man, the great elder of Zhengyi Sect invites everyone to gather in the front hall..."

Li Beifeng immediately understood.

Gathering in the front hall?

Is he trying to find the murderer of his son?

Li Beifeng's expression did not change, he smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay!"

"I'll go too! "

At this time, Zhou Qiuning's voice came from behind.

Li Beifeng glanced back, Zhou Qiuning walked to his side and smiled at him.

"Hello, my name is Zhou Qiuning!"

...

Front hall.

In the huge and spacious front hall, countless people have gathered at this moment.

However, the atmosphere in the front hall is a bit depressing at this moment.

The crowd is talking and whispering.

Outside the crowd, there are guards with strict hands.

In the front hall, in addition to the solemn-looking disciples of Zhengyi Sect, there are also the main leaders of several major sects.

At this moment, his eyes are on Lu Changxing, the elder of Zhengyi Sect.

The incident has spread throughout the manor.

Lu Chuan, the chief disciple of Zhengyi Sect, was assassinated last night.

This news shocked everyone.

As a leader of the younger generation of the Zhengyi Sect, Lu Chuan carries the hope of the Zhengyi Sect. His death was a heavy blow to Zheng Yimen.

This news is a great good thing for other sects.

Over the years, everyone has been suppressed by the Zhengyimen and has always been in the shadow of the Zhengyimen.

This time something happened to Zheng Yimen, and they were the happiest people.

However, Lu Chuan's death was not only a slap in the face of the Zhengyi sect, but also a slap in the face of other sects.

Therefore, although people from other sects are happy, the murderer still needs to be caught!

At this moment, Lu Changxing's face in the front hall was gloomy.

His whole body was full of hostility, and no one dared to provoke him.

Next to him stood a disciple of Zhengyi Sect.

Also, a strange woman.

At this moment, the woman was weak, her expression was trembling, and her eyes were full of fear.

Under the guidance of the disciples around her, her eyes kept scanning the sounds in the front hall.

"Have you found it?"

A disciple on the side asked.

The woman's delicate body trembled and she shook her head.

She was the heroine in Lu Chuan's room that night.

He was also the only survivor and witness when Lu Chuan was assassinated.

People from Zhengyimen searched almost the entire manor, but found nothing.

Therefore, we can only start with the woman in front of us.

She was the only witness.

As the largest sect in the world, it is too easy to get a weak woman to speak.

At this moment, under the instruction of the main disciple, she began to identify people again and again, and was bound to find the murderer of Lu Chuan.

The woman's eyes kept scanning the figures in the hall, her expression was sad and angry, and her eyes were full of despair.
