Chapter 439: Unraveling the Mystery
Gongyang Family:
The young family head had a calm face, and even smiled to comfort the elders and managers.
"It's okay, isn't it just a few people who died?"
"We Gongyang Family, there are not many other things, but there are many people!"
"It's just twenty-seven knights; they are not our foundation at all."
"And we have thousands of such knights."
"It's easy to crush the murderer with our real foundation!"
The elders and managers calmed down in panic.
They began to talk and laugh, thinking about how to find the murderer, and then beat him to death.
Only the smiling Gongyang family head was in a heavy mood.
Because:
The people of Gongyang Family were killed.
Although he said it was okay.
But, he knew that Gongyang Zhige was killed and the Gongyang Knight was beheaded at the city gate.
The actual damage to the Gongyang Family was actually insignificant.
But the consequences were quite serious.
The Gongyang Family has always been high and mighty.
Sacred and inviolable!
However, Chu Qing's move this time damaged their sacred and inviolable outer garment.
This will let the world know:
The Gongyang family is actually nothing more than that.
Today, there are outsiders who dare to kill their people.
Then, there will be others tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow, it may even happen that their lackeys will suddenly bite their masters.
This is actually the biggest crisis.
It's just... many elders and managers can't see this at all.
The family members have fallen in the long glory...
The head of the Gongyang family sighed.
After a long time, he sent away some managers and elders, leaving only his confidants and a few important figures with great power.
"Now, I ask:
First: Rebuke the vassal forces and ask them to search for clues of the murderer!"
"Second: Contact the Luo family, say hello to other families, and clear up the public security in the main city!"
"After night falls, no one is allowed on the streets of the main city."
"Third: Contact the Nine Gates Admiral and ask him to strengthen vigilance."
"From now on, any warriors entering and leaving the main city must register."
"Fourth..."
The head of the Gongyang family said more than ten requirements in one breath.
Everyone nodded.
After a while, the head of the Gongyang family asked: "By the way, has Chu Qing's team that went to catch that countryman come back?"
A steward whispered: "Not yet!"
The head of the Gongyang family was silent for a while and said: "Actually, it's all Chu Qing's fault!"
"He intercepted the Xu family's wedding party, and it's our Gongyang family that's embarrassed!"
"This made others realize that our Gongyang family... can also be provoked!"
"So, today's incident happened!"
"Well... tell them,
Catch that countryman alive!"
"Yes!"
Finally, the head of the Gongyang family looked at a steward on the side and said:
"Have the results of the body examination come out?"
The steward quickly said: "It's out!"
"According to the examination: the characteristics of the damage caused by the other party are very likely to be the legendary Eight Gods Hand!"
Eight Gods Hand?
The head of the Gongyang family was at a loss.
Although he practiced martial arts, he didn't take it seriously.
He valued power more.
Now, he just relied on resources to forcibly improve his cultivation to the third limit.
He has never fought a life-and-death battle with anyone.
He is even more indifferent to the secrets of the martial arts world.
"Tell me about the Eight Gods Hands!"
"Yes!"
The steward sorted out his thoughts and said quickly:
"The Eight Gods Hands are the keys left by a top sect in the ancient dynasty."
"It is said that mastering the Eight Gods Hands can open the legacy of that top sect and allow people to open up a new super sect in the present world."
The head of the Gongyang family frowned.
"Then why didn't the other party open that legacy? Instead, they dealt with us?"
The others were silent.
The head of the Gongyang family walked back and forth and whispered: "How does the top sect... compare to the White Jade Capital in the Sky?"
The steward said quickly: "It is said that the White Jade Capital in the Sky was opened up by a vassal sect of a super sect in ancient times."
The head of the Gongyang family was stunned.
The White Jade Capital in the Sky is already so terrible and so powerful.
And back then, it was just a vassal of that super sect?
So, how powerful was that super sect back then?
At this moment, the head of the Gongyang family also became interested in the Eight Gods Hand.
But...
"Are you sure it's the Eight Gods Hand?"
"Sure!"
"Gongyang Zhige's blood was drained, and his body cracked like porcelain."
"There is a bloody peacock flying into the air."
"All these records are similar to a move in the Eight Gods Hand - the peacock."
"It can even be said to be exactly the same!"
The head of the Gongyang family was moved.
His greatest wish is to take the family to a higher level.
Even if he can't become a royal family, he must be infinitely close to the royal family.
Even, lead the family to fight into the imperial capital and occupy a place.
If you can get the foundation of a super sect.
Then... just thinking about it is exciting... I can't think about it anymore.
The head of the Gongyang family pondered for a while and said:
"Find that person!"
"I must find him!"
"Then, bring him back!"
"Even if it means using the family's foundation, it's worth it!"
...
The top family - the Luo family.
They were both depressed and excited.
What’s depressing is that first the top genius Luo Sheng died and his body was never found.
Afterwards, seven or eight family members were killed in the city.
Then, they sent people to hunt down the murderer, but many were killed instead.
Then:
The strongest Silver Spear Guard in their family was actually terrified and scared when they saw the blood left by the Ram Knights.
This made the top leaders of the Luo family quite dissatisfied.
The new generation of the Luo family rarely had the arrogance they should have.
Some were only cautious and retreating.
What's more, the cautious and retreating ones were actually the family sons and servants of their Luo family.
This made them even more angry.
Family sons, servants, etc. should be fearless.
Instead of being afraid of a foreigner.
But there are also some surprises.
That is - no one of the Silver Spear Guards died.
The masters of the Goyang family died.
But, their family did not die.
This proves that the Luo family is stronger than the Goyang family.
Just...
"Find that stranger."
"Also, urge Luo Yong to bring back that... Chu Qing as soon as possible."
"We have to deal with him well."
"Let people fear our Luo family."
"Take the opportunity to hit the prestige of the Gongyang family."
...
The human world:
The headquarters of the human world in the main city is much larger than that of the state capital.
There are more people.
At this time:
All the high-level people in the human world stared at a headless corpse.
Their expressions were solemn.
Because:
This corpse is one of their intelligence chiefs.
A high-ranking official suppressed his anger and growled:
"For hundreds of years, only we in the human world have killed people, and no one has ever dared to provoke us."
"But some time ago, a young man named Chu Qing in Shizhou City destroyed the headquarters of the state city."
"Now, another young man from another place has killed our intelligence chief."
"Everyone... have we in the human world been forgotten?"
"Has our great reputation in the human world been covered in dust?"
Someone pondered for a moment and said: "Could it be that the countryman Chu Qing came to the main city?"
"It was him who killed our people?"
Several high-ranking officials shook their heads and said: "This is impossible !”
“That Chu Qing was just rampant in the countryside.”
“If he came to the main city, he would be as obedient as a cat. How could he dare to kill our people? How could he dare to attack the top families?”
Someone whispered: “That Chu Qing dared to rob the Xu family’s wedding party, dared to kill Luo Sheng, and dared to go against the top families and martial arts academy in the main city!”
“Why didn’t he dare to kill our people when he came to the main city?”
“The outsider killed the Gongyang family, the Luo family, and our people.”
“Unfortunately, the countryman Chu Qing also committed crimes against the Gongyang family, the Luo family, and us!”
“There is a one-third probability that the outsider murderer is Chu Qing!”
