my fate is a monster

Chapter 286 The murderer is in the palace
The murderer killed Gu Yun and Gu Xiang at the same time, and then absorbed their essence!
In an instant, Qin Yu understood the murderer's purpose.

If it is a life hunter, its purpose must be life.

As for other professions in the world, they are all based on cultivating Qi, blood and true energy.

In order to improve his cultivation, Emperor Chaoyun once refined 60 people in Mizhou into blood pills.

The process is naturally to refine the qi and blood of 60 people into a pill.

But what this murderer did was to directly use the blood and true energy of the Nine Realm experts, and his purpose was self-evident.

"Furthermore, after the death of the Gu brothers, there is still a demonic energy in their bodies that is the same as the aura left behind by Emperor Chaoyun after his death!"

"So……"

Qin Yu stared into the void, feeling that he had touched some of the truth about this matter.

Suddenly, he turned around, looked at Chunfeng and said, "Senior Brother Chunfeng, how many Nine Realm experts are there in Xijing City?"

This time Anmengsi held Emperor Chaoyun accountable, which attracted countless powerful people.

Some people even come from Mizhou in the north and Rongxian in the south.

There are many Nine Realm experts among them.

Daoist Xiang Zhiheng, the head of Quanzhen Dao Palace, and others are all newcomers to the Nine Realms.

In addition, there are also Nine Realm experts among the Evil Suppression Department, Dragon Protection Department and ministers.

Chunfeng thought for a while and said: "Since the opening of the Bone Burial Ground, there have been more and more powerful people in the Nine Realms. If you want to know the number of powerful people in the Nine Realms, it may be difficult to determine for a while."

Princess Rongchang heard the conversation between the two on one side, and her heart suddenly moved, and she said: "Master, what you mean is that the target of this murderer is actually a strong man in the Nine Realms?"

Qin Yu glanced at Rongchang in a blink of an eye, showing approval, but said in his mouth, "I'm afraid it is."

The voice fell.

Chunfeng and Princess Rongchang suddenly shuddered together.

There is such a powerful being in the world, preying on the strong men of the Nine Realms, killing them at will!

"So you two are safe now." Qin Yu moved his eyes away from Princess Rongchang's face, turned around and walked out of the wing, saying as he walked, "The matter of enthroning the emperor cannot be delayed any longer. Leave it to Pindao so you two can take care of yourself."

Chunfeng and Princess Rongchang looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything.

Princess Rongchang bowed her head and said submissively: "Disciple will obey Master's orders."

Qin Yu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought again.

"As Chunfeng said, after the burial ground, the number of Nine Realm strongmen has indeed increased. It is difficult to determine how many Nine Realm strongmen there are in Xijing City alone. So...why did the murderer target the Gu brothers? ?”

"In addition to the Gu brothers, Emperor Chaoyun was most likely also a target, but unfortunately he was killed by me. After that, he took action against the Gu brothers."

"You know, it is not easy to get into the Xijing Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty... If his target is only the Nine Realm strong men, he can directly look for the target in Xijing City, instead of giving up easy things and asking for difficult things, he will come to the palace to kill people. ...So...there must be some kind of characteristic in the Gu brothers that makes him very interested!"

"Could it... have something to do with Demon Venerable Jingyuan or Mieshizun?"

Involuntarily, Qin Yu remembered the information about the Demon Lord Jingyuan and the World-Destroying Lord from Jiu Tianzhen's mouth.

If this is the case, then as long as you follow the line of the Gu brothers, you will be able to find Venerable Mie Shi.

"By the way, Rongchang, have there been any changes in the attendants serving the Gu brothers in recent days?"

Qin Yu put aside his thoughts for the time being and turned to ask Princess Rongchang.

Princess Rongchang thought for a while and said: "The disciple knew that the Gu brothers were the master's subordinates, so he personally sent the most capable attendants. There were 21 people in the palace, including 11 maids, ten servants and eunuchs. They are all people who know their roots well.”

Seeing Qin Yu ask like this.

Princess Rongchang was also moved in her heart, and said secretly: "Master, I am afraid that an acquaintance committed the crime. Could it be that the murderer is really hidden among the attendants?"

Thinking of this, Rongchang continued: "This matter is indeed very strange. If the disciples hadn't come to visit the Gu brothers, no one would have noticed that the Gu brothers were dead."

In other words, the attendants who served the Gu brothers did not notice the murder or the death of the Gu brothers.

It was only when Princess Rongchang came to visit that she discovered that the Gu brothers were dead.

This inevitably makes people suspicious.

Qin Yu said calmly: "Call these people here. I have something to ask."

Princess Rongchang and Chunfeng looked at each other.

Chunfeng hurriedly said: "This is a big matter, I'd better go to it myself!"

After saying that, his body skills flew up and disappeared.

Even Qin Yu would find it extremely difficult to approach the Gu brothers, who are both in the Ninth Realm, silently.

Therefore, those who killed the Gu brothers must be acquaintances.

It was precisely because they were acquaintances that the Gu brothers lowered their guard.

The attendant who serves the two of them is the one who has the best chance of getting close to the two of them without being noticed.

Just when Chunfeng went to summon his attendants.

Qin Yu raised his hand, placed his palm between the eyebrows of Gu Yun and Gu Xiang, and continued to explore the changes inside the two bodies.

Gu Yun's heart was broken, and almost all his energy and blood were lost.

This is a sign of fully absorbing Qi and blood.

Guxiang is the brain turned into liquid, which should be related to the soul.

So Qin Yu focused on exploring Gu Xiang's head.

Although the soul will not be placed in the head, the only place where the power of the soul and the power of the state of mind can be exerted is the sea of ​​consciousness.

The place where people mobilize their consciousness is the brain.

This person did not touch Gu Yun's head, but was only interested in Gu Xiang's head, which meant that there should be something he wanted in Gu Xiang's sea of ​​consciousness.

hum!
In an instant, the power of Qin Yu's soul was poured into Gu Xiang's head.

The ancient alley is dead, and the soul has dissipated, but it has not completely dissipated, and there is still a trace of the power of the soul.

Under the agitation of the power of Qin Yu's soul, the remnants of the soul in Guxiang were quickly activated.

Qin Yu saw a pair of eyes.

This is what Gu Xiang saw before he died, and it remains in the depths of his memory and soul.

His eyes flickered, drawing a dim track in the sea of ​​consciousness.

"Demon energy." Qin Yu's heart moved and he felt a trace of demonic energy again.

Then, he frowned and began to explore Gu Yun again, and also felt a trace of demonic energy.

"No, no... the devilish energy I felt before did not come from the murderer at all, but Gu Yun and Gu Xiang itself!"

Suddenly, Qin Yu's heart suddenly moved, overturning his previous conclusion.

The demonic energy in the sea of ​​consciousness in the ancient alley comes from oneself.

Those eyes "saw" the demonic energy, which instantly stirred up the spirit of the ancient alley.

"The murderer's cultivation is related to the devil, and Gu Yun and Gu Xiang also show signs of practicing devil skills!"

"That's why the murderer's killing move was attracted!"

"Similarly, Emperor Chaoyun also practiced martial arts with the help of demonic methods a long time ago, and he was able to achieve great success!"

"Yes, yes!"

In an instant, Qin Yu suddenly realized.

It's true that the murderer's target is the Nine Realms powerhouses, but not all Nine Realms powerhouses.

He is a strong man in the Nine Realms who uses magic skills as an aid to help him practice his profession!
To put it bluntly, they are those strong men in the Nine Realms of the Righteous Path who also practice the Demonic Path!
One of the reasons why the murderer is looking for such a target is that the real masters of the demonic path have practiced the demonic path since they were young. Their aura and essence have long been infiltrated by the demonic energy, making it difficult to refine, and there is also the risk of becoming possessed by evil spirits.

As for the Nine Realm experts who practice the righteous profession, if they use demonic skills as a supplement to help their own profession, although they will also be affected by demonic energy, they will not be as deeply demonic as those who are true demonic cultivators.

For a powerful man like Emperor Chaoyun, even Qin Yu only became aware of the demonic energy in Emperor Chaoyun after his death.

Same thing with this.Gu Yun and Gu Xiang are also righteous practitioners who secretly practice demonic skills.

Qin Yu also didn't notice it before.

"Anyway, the target is narrowed."

Qin Yu's heart moved.

"Your Highness, everyone is here!"

At this time, Chunfeng went and returned, and walked into the wing with a group of attendants.

"The servant has seen His Highness!"

"Your Highness, this slave did not kill anyone..."

"Both elders are in the ninth realm. Even if the slaves want to kill them, they can't!"

As soon as he walked into the room, all the attendants fell to their knees on the ground, shouting for grievances together.

The deaths of Gu Yun and Gu Xiang are of great importance.

They were summoned by Princess Rongchang personally at this moment, and even fools realized something.

Princess Rongchang turned around and said coldly: "I didn't say that you killed anyone. What will my master ask you next and what will you answer? If there is even the slightest bit of deception, I will not spare you!"

"Yes!"

"Old slave obey!"

For a moment, the attendants were shocked by Princess Rongchang's aura, and when they saw Qin Yu again, everyone's hearts were shocked again.

Since the fall of Emperor Chaoyun, who in the palace does not know the name of Qin Tianshi?

That is a master that even the current emperor dares to kill!

All the attendants hurriedly put away their words of begging for mercy, knelt down in a row in a row, and lowered their heads in a terrified manner, all panicked to the extreme.

Qin Yu waved his hands and said, "It's not necessary, you all stand up."

The attendants thought they had heard wrongly, and no one stood up.

Princess Rongchang turned cold and said, "Master told you to stand up, are you deaf?"

Whoa!
At any time, everyone stood up in silence, but no one dared to look up at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu glanced across.

Chunfeng said from the side: "Twenty-one people, one is a lot."

There was no escape.

Qin Yu's heart moved, and his eyes swept over everyone's face from left to right, seemingly observing everyone's expressions, but in fact, the [Infinite Tribulation] Fate Beast was watching everyone's fate at close range. Plaid pattern.

Among the attendants, the strongest one is a third-level person.

The rest are first or second order.

And the remnant of that fate is the sixth level of [Ten thousand hectares of waves].

None of the 21 attendants can match this fate.

It is enough to show that none of these 21 people are murderers.

"Who came to this room about a quarter of an hour ago?" Qin Yu looked away and asked.

Since the fate does not correspond.

Then the murderer most likely entered the room through some means of seizing the body.

Therefore, any attendant who has entered the room may be taken away.

After hearing this, all the slaves lowered their heads and looked at each other. For a moment, no one dared to admit it.

Princess Rongchang shouted in a low voice: "Master is asking you!"

"It's a slave..."

"My slave has also been here..."

"There are also slaves..."

The next moment, all the attendants were silent, and three of them walked out tremblingly.

Qin Yu nodded slightly and said, "One by one, the three of you will tell us how you came in."

The first attendant was a maidservant. She was quite handsome, but her face turned a little blue because of fear. She heard this and said in a trembling voice: "The maidservant came here an hour ago. At that time, the two elders of Anmeng Division were using For snacks, I called my slave to bring tea. When the slave sent the tea and left, the two elders were still alive."

After hearing this, Qin Yu waved his hand and said, "Next one."

The second attendant was a young eunuch, who also trembled and said: "The slave was also summoned by the two elders. She was just to clean the table and pick up the utensils. When she left, the two elders were safe and sound. There was also a saying What about this..."

The third attendant basically said the same thing as the first two.

After Qin Yu listened one by one, his eyes passed over the three of them one by one, and the Fate Beast also kept exploring carefully around the three of them.

After a moment, Qin Yu waved his hand and said, "You go ahead."

Princess Rongchang saw this and dismissed her attendants.

Then he said: "Master, these people..."

Chunfeng also tensed up and looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu shook his head and said: "There is nothing wrong with the attendants, and this person will never leave such a big loophole. If I guess correctly, this person is in the palace now, and is familiar with the layout of the palace, and has great skills. Yes, no one noticed."

"This person is in the palace!?"

Chunfeng and Princess Rongchang looked at each other again, and both saw deep shock and fear in each other's eyes.

Such a powerful murderer was hiding in the palace.

That's a big deal!

"This man must be very good at the art of disguise and imitation. He came here as a follower and killed two elders."

Qin Yu retracted his hands, stood in front of the window, looked into the void and said, "I don't know what his next purpose is, so I have to stay in the palace and wait for him!"

"What is waiting for a rabbit?"

It was the first time for Chunfeng and Princess Rongchang to hear this word, and they were a little confused.

Qin Yu didn't bother to explain, and said: "Please dispose of the bodies of the two elders properly and return to Rongchang Palace first."

Princess Rongchang let out a sigh of relief.

If the murderer is still in the palace, then her safety will naturally be threatened.

Now that Master is willing to stay, I am finally relieved.

"Junior Brother Qin must have discovered something!" Chunfeng was also moved in his heart.

Then, the three of them left the crime scene together and returned to Princess Rongchang's palace.

"Master, you live here, very close to the disciple's room. If you need anything, you can call me directly."

After settling Qin Yu to live next door to her, Princess Rongchang said with a smile.

Chunfeng did not have such good treatment and could only live in the Siyi Pavilion where foreign ministers were entertained.

It was far away from here, so I said goodbye to Qin Yu and left.

Qin Yu didn't care too much and said, "It's convenient to have a place to live. Please tell me, is there anything unusual in the palace in recent days?"

Master and disciple sat opposite each other.

While pouring tea for Qin Yu, Princess Rongchang said: "If we talk about unusual movements, there are actually unusual movements everywhere. In the past few days, the disciples have been clearing away the Queen Mother's secrets, so the palace is also in a state of chaos."

"Hidden pile?" Qin Yu suddenly felt something in his heart.
