C243 Destroy the four great academies
"So that's how it is. In other words, the stronger I am, the stronger your Residual Soul is!" Chang Sheng heard and nodded, after being silent for a moment he said: "Rest assured, Gu Tianmo will definitely increase my strength as fast as possible! "However, I must first ask this fellow in front of me ?"
Chang Sheng took out a Honest Dan that he always carried on his body, pried open Yuan Ke's mouth, and stuffed it inside.
"Hmm?"
Looking at the young master's actions, Guo Feng became increasingly suspicious. The pill that the young master took out just now should have been a Honest Dan, a medicine that could make everyone below the Innate Stage tell the truth without them noticing. But Yuan Ke was a Qi Cultivating Stage expert, what was the use of letting him consume the Honest Dan?
Just as Guo Feng was pondering, Chang Sheng had already started speaking.
"Speak, what is your identity?! Why did you come to kill me?
"My name is Yuan Ke, I'm the captain of the Ying Wu Hou's personal guard." Under Guo Feng's astonished gaze, Yuan Ke seemed to be a person whose soul had been controlled as he woodenly opened his mouth and said: "Because the Ying Wu Hou wants you dead, I've come to kill you."
"Ying Wu Hou, it's really him!" Chang Sheng's face turned cold, and his body unconsciously released an endless amount of killing intent: "Speak, why did Ying Wu Hou keep trying to kill me, and also, what plans do you have this time?!"
"I don't know, I don't know why Ying Wu Hou wanted to kill you either. I'm just completing the mission Ying Wu Hou gave me. Previously, Ying Wu Hou told me to bring along two medicinal pellets to find Chen Huanqi and Li Ye and let them enter the Qi Training Stage, but the two of them were not your match yet, so I could only personally make a move and lure you two here. Before that, I ? "
Yuan Ke slowly told them everything that happened after he arrived at the capital. At the side, when Guo Feng heard his words, his eyes released a trace of killing intent, this Ying Wu Hou's young master did not offend him, nor did he provoke him, and he kept on wanting to kill this young master! Fortunately, the young master was smart and had outstanding talent, allowing him to survive until now. However ?
Guo Feng suddenly turned his head to look at Chang Sheng, his face revealing his suspicions, but, the food that the young master had fed Yuan Ke was obviously the Honest Dan, why was it that Yuan Ke, this person from Qi Training Stage, was like a person below the Innate Stage, speaking the truth? Also, look at Yuan Ke's body rapidly drying up.
There were many records on how demonic techniques could be used to forcefully absorb the opponent's power and supplement it for one's own. And the way these cultivation techniques were used, was exactly the same as Yuan Ke's.
However, the strange thing was that after forcefully absorbing the power of the opponent, he must also quickly refine it, after all, it was not a cultivation technique that he had slowly cultivated, especially if the two people's cultivation techniques clashed, absorbing the power was a very dangerous thing! For example, the people from the Confucian Scholar!
If the devil sect people absorbed the power of the Confucian Scholar's people, the two types of True Qi inside their body that were born against each other would immediately attack each other. One of them was not good, the other could very easily cause the meridians in the body to burst, and the flow of True Qi would be reversed!
Therefore, those evil and wicked people who trained in the Evil Dao of cultivation would rarely try to absorb the power of those from the Confucian Scholar!
Although the one the young master absorbed was not the Confucian Scholar, he had also absorbed the energy of others, moreover it was a person with a realm much higher than his, yet he still did not quickly refine it, this was too strange!
Yuan Ke continued, "Just today, before we arrived, I had already sent a pigeon to Ying Wu Hou, asking him to send some people outside to break through the formation. I just did not expect that I would not be your match either ?"
"What?" He already sent a message to Ying Wu Hou? What is Ying Wu Hou's current strength? "
"I don't know. I only know that Ying Wu Hou has long since been an expert in Heaven Defying Stage. As for the exact realm, I don't know!"
Chang Sheng's brows suddenly wrinkled. At least in terms of Heaven Defying Stage, although Gu Tianmo had said that he was invincible within the Qi Training Stage, Ying Wu Hou was at least in terms of Heaven Defying Stage! Furthermore, Yuan Ke had already become a pigeon in legend, which meant that after he left, the Ying Wu Hou would definitely know that it was him who killed Yuan Ke!
This way, Ying Wu Hou would immediately have an even more powerful expert come to kill him!
No, he had to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible. After he returned, he had to think about how to improve his strength as soon as possible!
Chang Sheng turned around and waved his palm towards the corpses of the few people he had killed, causing them to be unable to tell who had been injured. Then, he quickly swung his palm again, and directly smashed Yuan Ke, who had lost his origin, into smithereens.
"Guo Feng, let's go quickly. It's not good for us to stay here for long."
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, he grabbed Guo Feng's arm and quickly ran out of the villa. Before, he had just endured the heavenly tribulation, so the scene had definitely attracted the attention of all the experts in the capital, because Yuan Ke was still alive, with the help of the manor's force to stop him, other people would not be able to discover him even if they went outside of the manor. Now that Yuan Ke was dead, other people could enter, so he would not be discovered.
Chang Sheng pulled Guo Feng and quickly left.
At the same time, outside the manor, Grand Preceptor Fei who had already left earlier turned around and looked in the direction of the manor.
"Strange, the formation that prevented us from entering the manor has disappeared!"
Grand Preceptor Fei pondered for a moment, then quickly rushed into the villa. In a moment, he was already inside the villa.
As soon as he stepped into the manor, all he saw were broken corpses.
"Hmm? So many have died in this tribulation? "
Grand Preceptor Fei's expression became strange.
That night, the news of someone going through the tribulation in the villa outside Ying Wu Hou had spread throughout the entire capital. On the morning assembly the next day, even the Emperor Fang Yuanfu had expressed his concern.
"Chief Constable Huang, how is your investigation of the murder of everyone in Ying Wu Hou's villa yesterday?"
Seeing that the various matters had been discussed, Fang Yuanfu immediately asked the Chief Constable Huang Xiping.
Hearing that, Huang Xiping walked out from the crowd and said respectfully, "Reporting to Your Majesty, all of the corpses in the manor have been destroyed by someone using a powerful palm force. We are no longer able to find out how they died, and which Seed Cultivation Technique did they die from. As for those who died, we found out, most of them were servants from Ying Wu Hou's villa, and one of them was the Guard Captain Yuan Ke who served Ying Wu Hou!
"You only found out the identity of the victim. Do you have no leads at all towards the killer?" Fang Yuanfu frowned and looked at Huang Xiping, his tone filled with deep dissatisfaction.
First, the Minister of Rites had been killed in his manor, along with his own people. The Minister of Rites himself was suspected to have connections with the evil sects, and before the matter could be investigated clearly, Ying Wu Hou's manor in the outskirts had been massacred clean!
For such a prestigious capital, there to be so many major murders in a row, and all of them were related to his officials, he would definitely be dissatisfied!
For a moment, he bent his waist even more, and the expression on his face became more and more respectful, "Your Majesty, this humble subject and the constable roughly judge that the culprit is a strong expert from Heaven Defying Stage. After all, previously, there had been a Rainbow Tribulation Clouds that had descended above the Ying Wu Hou's manor. The death of everyone in the Ying Wu Hou Villa must be related to him, and from this humble subject's perspective, the other party is very likely to be someone from the evil way!
Huang Xiping slowly made his judgement, "Recently, people of the evil path have become more and more rampant, especially in the vicinity of Beijing. The case this time, judging from the methods, it's very likely to be committed by people of the evil way!"
"The evil way, yes, the evil way hands have been getting more and more rampant lately."
The moment Huang Xiping's words fell, many people immediately agreed, "I think it's time to properly clean up this evil path."
"That's right. Not only are these evil ways everywhere to commit crimes, they are also constantly bewitching. Sects like these must completely disappear."
All of a sudden, all the ministers in the throne room began to denounce the evil way. Amidst all the denouncement, a different voice suddenly sounded.
"Actually, it might not have been done by those from the evil path!" Grand Preceptor Fei suddenly said, upon hearing his voice, everyone immediately stopped, their gazes all gathered on Grand Preceptor Fei, waiting for his opinion!
"Actually, I went to the scene yesterday. At that time, those servants were just killed, and I felt a strong sense of righteousness from those few dead servants! So I am almost sure that the culprits are not the evil sects, but the experts of Confucian Scholar! "
Grand Preceptor Fei paused before continuing, "Everyone has seen yesterday's phenomenon, and everyone knows Yuan Ke's strength. There's no doubt that he's a heaven defying expert, and he's also in the capital, and he's not in everyone's line of sight. I'm afraid only those academies have him!
The academy!" Huang Xiping was alarmed. "Grand Preceptor Fei, you're saying that it was the people from the academy who did it?" "That's right!" Grand Preceptor Fei nodded his head heavily, then turned to look at Fang Yuanfu, "Your Majesty, the people from the four great academies, although they don't serve the country and don't produce much, they still need the assistance of the state for their money and food every year. They are nothing but moths to the nation! "Moreover, their academy has many experts. If their academies had any ill intentions, the country would be affected immediately. Therefore, I ask that Your Majesty immediately send troops to destroy the four great academies!
