After the Immortal Disappeared

Chapter 542 Another Shocking Change

He Lingchuan said to himself: "King Baoshu has also entered the game."

The Baoshu King has stood firm for eight hundred years, and even the Demon Emperor has been replaced twice. It still remains the same, and it must be well versed in the way of dealing with the world.

He Lingchuan couldn't help but laugh. As soon as the old tree demon took action, the water in Bega became even more muddy.

"Although this old tree grows in its own territory, its weight is different from that of other demon kings." The Baoshu King is the oldest, most experienced and most charismatic of all the demon kings. The emperor wanted to respect it, "If it gets involved, then this matter can't be good."

"Oh, the midnight snack is here." Fushan Yue saw the guard coming over carrying something, "You really don't want it?"

"No."

He Lingchuan walked back to his room and sighed calmly.

After capturing Cen Boqing, the Chiyan King and his son were actually able to explain themselves internally and externally. After all, further investigation revealed the internal affairs of Lingxu City, which was beyond the capabilities of most demon kingdoms.

But He Lingchuan was always calculating his situation. He was too deeply involved in this case. No matter whether Bai Ziqi wanted to investigate the death of Zhongsun Mou or the case of the immortal medicine, he could not get around him.

Even He Lingchuan himself can be considered a witness, because he, Zhong Sunmou and Cen Boqing have all had in-depth exchanges.

So if Bai Ziqi wants to solve this case, he might even take He Lingchuan back to Lingxu City, which can be called a "coordinated investigation" in name.

Can he say no?

In this case, if the father and son of the Chiyan Kingdom retreat, then Mai Xuewen's advice to He Lingchuan may come true, because the Chiyan Kingdom will most likely take back the title and power of his special envoy.

What is worse than being in name only has no real name.

Now He Lingchuan found out from Fushanyue that the Chiyan Demon King was resolute and that other demon kings were also involved, which was a reassurance.

The more forces involved in this matter, the less likely it is that things will go well.

As long as he maintains his posture and talks, the big guys from all sides will be busy fighting each other, and they won't bother to deal with this little shrimp like him.

The mirror in his arms suddenly said: "Hey, they are going to interrogate Cheng Yu tomorrow. I guess you are grudges?"

"Well, yes." He Lingchuan did not deny it, "I found that Bai Ziqi was unusually interested in him."

Bai Ziqi personally admitted that Cheng Yu might be helpful to his next case.

Before being transferred to Bai Shaqian by the Demon Emperor's urgent order, Bai Ziqi was working in the Twilight Plains. Fu Shanyue thought that he had sneaked into the Chiyan Kingdom to find out some secrets, but He Lingchuan heard what the Du Yun envoy said. When I heard the words "Twilight Plains", I was already feeling uneasy.

I saw the second illusion of the ruins of Thousand Star City in the Twilight Plains, which was a hidden illusion that no one else had seen before. He Lingchuan could reasonably suspect that the reason for the appearance of this hidden illusion was that it resonated with the large square pot or the floating knife.

In any case, there was an intersection between the illusion and him, and Dafang Pot was also involved.

Judging from the time, Bai Ziqi was sent to the Twilight Plains, probably just after the hidden illusion appeared.

What if he just went to check the illusion?

Thinking of this, He Lingchuan felt a strong sense of crisis.

The soul-catching mirror added: "As long as they interrogate Cheng Yu, they will know how he plotted against you. That is not good."

He Lingchuan was annoyed: "Do you still need to remind me?"

The secret of Cheng Yu's invincible killing in his dream is a nightmare with many faces.

Bai Ziqi is just a little curious about him now, but once she knows that Cheng Yu's gold medal fighter is such a big guy——

The Hundred-faced Nightmare, who could kill even the King of Mang Kingdom, couldn't deal with a small special envoy of the Prince of Chiyan Kingdom, and He Lingchuan didn't even have Yuan Power!

How could a seventeen-year-old boy do this?

Does he have any secret method or magical weapon that can make the Hundred-faced Nightmare come back to bite Cheng Yu?

"If the opponent is someone like Bai Ziqi, even if he only has some suspicion, it will be a great disadvantage to us."

He has city power, scheming, and outstanding observation skills.

The scariest thing is that he has power.

God-given power.

The soul-catching mirror immediately said: "There is still time, just kill Cheng Yu before the trial starts tomorrow!"

"Kill Cheng Yu?"

"That's right, they have no one to interrogate, and your secret will be kept." Jing Jing was very pleased with himself for coming up with this idea to draw out the firepower, "You must be able to do it, right?"

He Lingchuan sighed: "It was still more than an hour before dawn. Neither he nor the prince were tired. Why didn't they continue to interrogate Wu Kai? Is it because Wu Kai was too tired or because we were too tired?"

"That is?"

"Maybe he wants to go back first to wash up, change clothes, and offer incense to the gods. Maybe he wants to eat the time-honored sesame beef sesame cakes and kway teow soup here. Maybe... that's a trap to test me!" He Lingchuan sank. Face, "If I release Nightmare to deal with Cheng Yu now, I might be playing into his hands. Who knows what Du Yunshi has to do. If I fail to kill Cheng Yu, I will expose myself instead."

The soul-capturing mirror sighed: "Then what do you think we should do? You can't just sit back and watch Bai Ziqi interrogate Cheng Yu, right?"

He Lingchuan was about to speak when someone seemed to be running outside. Soon he heard Fushan Yue knocking on the door and yelling at him:

"He Xiao, come out quickly, He Xiao!"

He Lingchuan pushed the door open and saw Fu Shanyue's figure passing by, saying:

"Prisoner Wu Kai is ill and his life is in danger!"

Something happened to Wu Kai?

Lying down on the grass! He Lingchuan was also shocked.

It's been a rough night tonight.

Fu Shanyue instructed the guards: "Notify Bai Dushi immediately, go!"

When the last two words came out, he had already rushed to the entrance of the inn's cellar and jumped in.

Cen Boqing was captured tonight, and Wu Kai was still in the inn's cellar, and there was no time to move.

Although Cen Boqing had confessed, Wu Kai was still a very important witness, and there were many mysteries about him. Bai Ziqi and Fu Shanyue would have to re-examine him later.

Fu Shanyue didn't want to see him get into trouble.

The two jumped down to the cellar and saw the guards removing the shackles from Wu Kai. The latter seemed to be afraid of the cold, fell to the ground and curled up, shivering.

At first glance, his symptoms looked very similar to the spell attack in the evening. In fact, his skin and flesh were shrinking inward at a speed visible to the naked eye, especially when the tendons and nerves contracted, his limbs were twisted into strange shapes, and his whole body trembled involuntarily.

Wu Kai's skin also had some red spots, which looked a bit like peach hearts.

"It's not a curse, it could be a deadly poison!" Fu Shanyue took a look and took out a small bottle of potion from his bosom and forced it down Wu Kai's throat.

Wu Kai's pharyngeal muscles also stopped working, and he couldn't swallow. The potion flowed down his esophagus.

What Fu Shanyue took out at this time was of course a good life-saving medicine.

But Wu Kai choked immediately, but he didn't cough, but made a strange "heji" sound, like a mouse being stepped on.

He began to vomit blood.

It was bright red, and there were small pieces of meat.

He Lingchuan's face changed immediately. He went to press his pulse, only to find that it was chaotic, and his heart, liver, and lungs were all severely damaged.

From the onset of the disease to the serious illness, it only took a few seconds?

Fu Shanyue yelled with a dark face: "Doctor, Liu Twelve, where are the people! Where did they die?"

Liu Twelve was the sorcerer who cast a spell on Wu Kai in the afternoon.

His legs and feet were not as flexible as those of a warrior, so he ran down to the cellar at this time.

He flipped Wu Kai's eyelids, tore open his shirt, and pressed twice on his heart:

"It's not a spell, but there's something in his heart!"

He Lingchuan also reached out and pressed it, and his true power passed through.

You don't know until you check, and you'll be shocked when you check. Wu Kai's heart is like a broken sack with thousands of holes. Every time it beats, the damage becomes more severe.

Wu Kai suddenly stopped shaking and let out a long "hiccup", as if the last breath in his lungs was squeezed out.

He still kept a curled-up posture, his eyes were wide open, as if they were about to fall out of their sockets.

He Lingchuan pressed his neck pulse, and then shook his head to Fu Shanyue:

"Dead."

Fu Shanyue turned his head to look at the sorcerer, grabbed his collar, and his eyes were murderous: "Does it have anything to do with you? Tell me!"

"No, no!"

"Was it in the evening you..." Fu Shanyue was still rational and didn't tell the secret.

"No, no, it has nothing to do with me!" The sorcerer argued, "He died of heart disease!"

"What kind of disease is so severe that people are gone in the blink of an eye?" From the onset of the disease to death, it was less than thirty breaths, thirty breaths!

This really doesn't give people time to react.

At this time, the doctor with the team finally arrived.

Fu Shanyue stared at him coldly: "You came here specially after having supper, right?"

The doctor wiped his sweat as soon as he came: "Your Highness, calm down, I was just squatting, squatting..."

He was in the back of the five grains, and the guards came to knock on the door.

It takes time to pull up pants.

Fu Shanyue knew that it would be useless to blame him at this time: "Find out for me, how did he die!"

"Ah, yes, yes!" The doctor quickly squatted down to act as a coroner.

He knocked on the dead body and soon took out a knife.

Fu Shanyue immediately expressed his concern: "What for?"

"Prince, you have to open it to see the problem inside." An autopsy is required, otherwise how can the cause of death be found?

Fu Shanyue covered his head, feeling heavy: "Baidushi hasn't come yet, can you dissect the person casually? Wait!"

...

So when Bai Ziqi heard the news and rushed over, he saw this scene:

Fu Shanyue and He Lingchuan sat woodenly on the side, and the doctor knelt beside the prisoner.

The serious criminal Wu Kai curled up into a ball, his eyes wide open.

Bai Ziqi's heart sank, and he stared at the entrance of the cellar without fear of the dead, and strode over:

"What happened!"

"Sudden death from illness." Fu Shanyue said in a deep voice, "The doctor said it was not a curse--"

The doctor on the side: "..."

He didn't say that.

"It's not a deadly poison. I want to wait for Baidushi to arrive before dissecting the specific cause of death."

Bai Ziqi's eyes never left Wu Kai's body. At this time, he squatted down and turned it over a few times, and pressed the position of his heart.

"It could be the same fate Gu."

"What is that?"

"It is an extremely vicious Gu insect. The most powerful species is called peach heart Gu, which attacks very quickly and cannot be cured by medicine." Bai Ziqi pointed to the red spots on Wu Kai's body, "This peach spot is evidence."
