Chapter 526 Zhuyin Returns to the Island

Song Wen placed Shan Yue on an uninhabited island, which was ten thousand miles away from Jiyin Island.

Leaving two ghost shadow insects to protect Shan Yue and put her under house arrest, Song Wen flew to Wuji Island.

He could not return to Jiyin Island, and the identity of "Jiyin" could not be used for the time being. He planned to find a place far away from Wuji Island and retreat for a while. He came to Wuji Island to buy some spiritual medicines needed for alchemy and to get some information.

Two hours later, Song Wen arrived at Wuji Island.

Disguised as a mid-stage foundation-building cultivator, Song Wen entered the Shadow City.

In the Shadow City, as usual, people came and went, and on the surface it seemed calm and there was nothing unusual.

After purchasing the spiritual medicine, he hesitated for a while, not knowing who to ask for information.

On Wuji Island, the person Song Wen was most familiar with was Chu Qian.

But Chu Qian is a typical profit-seeking person. His friendship with Song Wen is based on the premise of exchanging interests.

If Song Wen contacted him as "Extreme Yin" at this time, he would betray Song Wen without hesitation.

When Song Wen was hesitating, he found that he had come to the entrance of Corpse King Valley, and Jing Kai happened to be on duty here.

He immediately had a plan in his mind.

......

Jing Kai has not been doing well recently. Although guarding the gate of Corpse King Valley is safe, the salary is low, and the spiritual stones earned cannot meet the needs of cultivation.

This forced him to take on some dangerous monster hunting tasks in his spare time to earn some spiritual stones.

Shen time.

This is the time for Jing Kai to go off duty. After handing over to his fellow disciples who came to take over, he walked out of Corpse King Valley.

He planned to complete a task of hunting a second-level sea monster.

However, before setting off, he still needed to buy some healing and spiritual energy pills.

Two quarters of an hour later, Jing Kai visited several pill shops and bought the required pills.

The reason why he went to so many medicine stores was not because the medicine he bought was so scarce, but simply to compare prices and choose a more affordable store.

"It's a black shop. Three healing pills and five replenishing pills cost me five hundred spirit stones. The complete corpse of a second-level monster is only worth one or two thousand spirit stones." Jing Kai cursed in his heart.

Suddenly, a spiritual consciousness entered Jing Kai's mind.

"Friend Jing Kai, are you doing well recently?"

Jing Kai raised his eyes and looked around the busy street. He found that a few feet away, a strange male cultivator in the foundation-building period was looking at him with a smile.

He couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. He didn't know the other person. He couldn't help but feel a little alert.

"Who are you? Why do you know my name?"

"Friend Jing Kai, don't panic. It's me, Ji Yin." Song Wen continued to transmit the voice.

"Are you really Senior Ji Yin?"

Jing Kai's eyes flashed with a trace of panic, his body trembled slightly, and he looked a little uneasy.

Song Wen also noticed his abnormality and said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Jing Kai, what happened today? Why are you upset?"

"No...nothing." Jing Kai pretended to be calm.

"I have something to ask you, I wonder if you can do me a favor?"

Song Wen's face was full of smiles, but when Jing Kai saw this smile, he felt a chill in his heart.

"I don't know what you want to know? I will tell you everything I know." Jing Kai's eyes were a little evasive when he spoke.

"This is not a place to talk. Let's go to a secluded place outside the city and talk in detail." Song Wen raised his hand and led him out of the city.

Song Wen originally wanted to find a restaurant in the city to entertain Jing Kai and get some information from him.

But from Jing Kai's reaction just now, he must know something, and it was news that was unfavorable to Song Wen.

So, Song Wen changed his mind temporarily and forced Jing Kai to go out of the city. In this way, if an accident happened, Song Wen could escape quickly and ensure his own safety.

Jing Kai looked hesitant, full of anxiety and hesitation.

"Don't worry, my friend, I have no ill will towards you, I just want to find out some information. As long as you can answer truthfully, I will not only not hurt you, but also give you a generous reward." Song Wen said.

Jing Kai may feel that he can't escape from Song Wen, so he can only nod in response.

"Senior invites you, how dare I refuse."

Jing Kai slowly rose into the air and went out of the city.

Song Wen followed closely.

Soon, the two came to the dense forest a hundred miles outside the city.

"Senior, please tell me what you want to know, and I will tell you the truth." Jing Kai said respectfully.

He knew that only by cooperating with Song Wen and satisfying Song Wen could he have a chance of survival.

Song Wen asked, "Has anything major happened on Wuji Island recently?"

Jing Kai said, "Half a month ago, Elder Yuan Qing's soul lamp suddenly went out, which angered Demon Lord Ye Hua, who ordered a thorough investigation of the real culprit. Perhaps he was afraid of alerting the enemy and causing the murderer to flee. Demon Lord Ye Hua ordered a secret investigation. Therefore, only the cultivators above the foundation building stage in the inner sect knew about this matter, and even the Jindan elders in the outer sect were unaware of it."

"Have you found any clues?" Song Wen asked.

Jing Kai said, "I don't know the specific situation very well. But I guess the real culprit has not been found yet."

"The Demon Lord regarded all the Jindan elders on Wuji Island as suspects. On the day when Elder Yuan Qing's soul lamp went out, the Demon Lord sent people to summon all the Jindan elders from the inner and outer sects to the Corpse King Valley and interrogate them one by one."

"However, the real murderer was not found among the Jindan elders summoned that day. The Demon Lord then regarded the Jindan elders who had not arrived as the main suspects. He sent people to secretly monitor the caves of these elders. Once these elders returned, they would be captured and interrogated in detail in the Corpse King Valley."

After listening to Jing Kai's story, Song Wen understood why someone was monitoring Jiyin Island.

He also understood why Jing Kai was so afraid of him before, because he was one of the suspects who killed Yuan Qing.

"Has Zhuyin returned to the Corpse King Valley?" Song Wen asked.

"I saw Elder Zhuyin return to the sect with my own eyes when I was on duty yesterday. Moreover, Elder Zhuyin seemed to be seriously injured and his breath was a little weak." Jing Kai said.

"Has Zhuyin been investigated as a suspect?" Song Wen said.

"I don't know about this." Jing Kai said.

Song Wen raised his hand and a storage bag appeared in his hand.

"Thank you for telling me the truth. Here are 50,000 spirit stones as a reward for you."

Hearing that there were 50,000 spirit stones, Jing Kai looked at the storage bag handed over by Song Wen, his eyes full of eagerness.

This amount of spirit stones was enough to solve his urgent needs.

He was about to reach out to take it, but his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"Senior has always taken care of me, how can I accept your spirit stones."

Song Wen directly stuffed the storage bag into Jing Kai's hand.

When he was in the city before, Song Wen saw that Jing Kai was in a tight spot.

If you want to bribe someone, you naturally have to give him what he needs.
