“Why?”
Ye Qiu looked at the Dragon King puzzled.
He finally found the clue of the murderer and determined that the assassination of the Nine Thousand Years Old was done by the people of the Witch God Sect. Why did the Dragon King persuade him not to investigate anymore?
The Dragon King said: “I just said that the Witch God Sect has no bottom line in doing things. They are a group of lunatics. I’m afraid that if you provoke them, you will be retaliated against them.
“If we stop here, then three days later, your life will be gone.” Ye Qiu said.
The Dragon King smiled freely and said: “I am already a dying person. It doesn’t matter if I die earlier or later.”
“But I don’t want to lose an arm.” Ye Qiu said seriously: “I am so handsome and have a good job. If I lose an arm, I will become a disabled person and it will be difficult to find a wife in the future.”
“That’s better than provoking the Witch God Sect.”
“Dragon King, if we find the murderer and then hand the murderer over to His Highness the Ninth Prince for handling, then this matter will have nothing to do with us. If the Witch God Sect wants to take revenge, they should go after His Highness the Ninth Prince.”
“The Witch God Sect will definitely go after His Highness the Ninth Prince. This assassination failed, and they won’t give up. But likewise, they won’t let you off either.
“If they really come to cause trouble for me, then I can rely on the power of His Highness the Ninth Prince and the Dragon Gate to fight against the Witch God Sect.”
“You’re too naïve.” The Dragon King said: “The Witch God Sect is very mysterious. Not to mention whether you can find the murderer, even if you find the murderer and pass the test of His Highness the Ninth Prince, His Highness the Ninth Prince won’t have the time to help you deal with the Witch God Sect.”
“Why is that?” Ye Qiu didn’t understand.
The Dragon King said: “Because the top priority in front of His Highness the Ninth Prince now is to sweep away all the underground forces in the world. Before unifying the world, he simply can’t spare the effort to deal with the Witch God Sect.”
It’s a dilemma!
Ye Qiu furrowed his brows.
If he continues to look for the murderer, he will provoke the Witch God Sect and may be retaliated against. If he stops looking, then the Dragon King will surely die and he will also lose an arm.
After thinking for a while, Ye Qiu made up his mind and said: “Let’s find the murderer first. Even if the Witch God Sect wants to take revenge on me, it will be a matter for the future.”
The Dragon King still wanted to persuade and said: “But…”
“Dragon King, don’t you want to find the person who poisoned you?” Ye Qiu said. “As long as we find the murderer, it is possible to know the information of the Wu God Sect, dig out their branch hall in Jiangzhou, and maybe find the person who poisoned you back then.”
“I think Ye Qiu is right. We should continue to look for the murderer.” Zhao Yun supported Ye Qiu’s idea.
The Dragon King said, “I also want to find that person back then. If I can take revenge before I die, then I will really have no regrets in dying. But if we do this, you will surely be retaliated against by the Wu God Sect, Little Ye.”
“Let’s talk about the future later. For now, let’s first find the murderer!”
Seeing Ye Qiu’s firm attitude, the Dragon King finally nodded.
Zhao Yun asked, “Now that we already know that this was done by the people of the Wu God Sect, where do we go to find them next?”
The Dragon King said, I have searched for so many years and haven’t found the trace of the Wu God Sect. Now that the Ninth Thousand Years only gave us three days, I’m afraid it will be difficult to find the murderer.”
“That’s not necessarily true.” Ye Qiu laughed.
The Dragon King looked at Ye Qiu and asked, “You have a way?”
“Yes.” Ye Qiu nodded.
Zhao Yun asked curiously, “What way?”
“Don’t worry about what way. In short, as long as the murderer is still in Jiangzhou, I will definitely be able to find him.”
After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he quietly formed a seal with both hands and silently recited the spell of the tracking talisman. Soon, a wisp of black air appeared in front of his eyes again.
“Go!”
With Ye Qiu’s soft shout, the black qi floated into the elevator.
”Let’s go!”
Ye Qiu led the Dragon King and the Military God into the elevator and came to the hotel lobby. Then, after the strand of black qi floated around the hotel lobby for a circle, it went straight out of the hotel.
Ye Qiu closely followed the strand of black qi, turning left and right on the street. Finally, he walked into a secluded alley.
This alley was winding, deep, narrow and long. The bluestones on the ground were mottled and there was not a single figure in sight, very desolate and quiet.
”Be careful, you guys. I have a hunch that we are very close to the murderer now.” Ye Qiu reminded.
The Dragon King suddenly became extremely vigilant, his eyes constantly sweeping around.
Zhao Yun also reached behind his waist with one hand and held the gun.
Ye Qiu followed the strand of black qi all the way to the depth of the alley. Finally, this strand of black qi landed in front of an old courtyard gate.
”It’s here.”
Ye Qiu stopped and pointed at the courtyard gate.
The Dragon King and Zhao Yun looked up and saw a dark house gate. At this time, the gate was tightly closed and they didn’t know what the situation was inside.
”Little Ye, is the murderer inside?” the Dragon King asked in a low voice.
”I don’t know.” Ye Qiu was also not sure if the murderer was inside. Then he added, “Even if the murderer is not inside, there must be clues about the murderer in there.”
“Zhao Yun, you go and knock on the door.” The Dragon King instructed: “Be careful.”
Zhao Yun nodded slightly, walked slowly to the front of the door, and raised his hand to knock on the door.
“Dong dong dong!”
After knocking for a while, there was no response at all. Then Zhao Yun shouted again: “Is there anyone at home?”
He shouted several times in a row, but there was still no response.
Zhao Yun turned around and looked at Ye Qiu and asked: “What should we do?”
“What else can we do? We can only break down the door.”
“Bang!”
Ye Qiu kicked open the door. Suddenly, a strong stench rushed towards them, making people feel nauseous.
“Go in and take a look.” Ye Qiu covered his nose and took the lead in walking into the house.
Zhao Yun and the Dragon King followed closely behind.
The living room was in a mess. There were some moldy meals on the table, which were covered with flies and very disgusting.
The ground was filled with beer bottles and sunflower seed shells.
It could be seen that someone had lived here before, and there was more than one person living here.
Ye Qiu gave the Dragon King and Zhao Yun a look, and then the three of them split up and started looking for something in the house.
“Dragon King, Ye Qiu, come and take a look.” Suddenly, Zhao Yun’s voice came out from a room.
Ye Qiu and the Dragon King immediately rushed in.
After entering the door, the first thing that catches the eye is an ancient bronze incense burner. Then, it is seen that against the wall behind the incense burner, a wooden plaque is placed.
There is not a single word on the wooden plaque.
Ye Qiu quickly fetched a bowl of water from the kitchen and splashed it on the wooden plaque. Before long, a snake-shaped pattern slowly emerged on the wooden plaque, which is exactly the totem of the Witch God Sect.
Below the totem, there are also four small characters:
Jiangzhou Branch Hall!
“I didn’t expect that the Jiangzhou Branch Hall of the Witch God Sect would be here.” Ye Qiu was a little surprised.
“Now that the people have run away, finding their branch hall is of no use. Damn it.” Zhao Yun cursed.
The Dragon King also sighed and said: Finally found the information of the Witch God Sect, but unexpectedly it was broken again. We came too late.
“It’s okay, they can’t escape.”
Just as Ye Qiu finished speaking, suddenly a sound came from the door: “Dong dong——”
