Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In the dark room of Haimang Mountain, Nether Sea Branch, a man pushed open the door and entered, saluted Xue Jing and handed him a stack of files.

Xue Jing looked through the files and asked, "How is it? Is there any new progress?"

The man said: "It has been confirmed that before Ma Shouyang disappeared, he was conducting a secret investigation about Qianjia Sect's supplies. He sent many people out to carry out this task. We initially suspected that he might have found the Qianjia Sect's hiding place. The location of the supplies, and then fled with the Qianjia Sect’s supplies.”

"In the past few days, we have integrated the clues at hand and basically determined that the direction known from the clues is in the Yueming Lake area. We went to Yueming Lake. There was a large array below, which only contained some scattered low-level pills, spiritual energy and spiritual practices. The material is not very valuable.”

Xue Jing glanced at him: "When you arrived, was the formation intact?"

"no."

"That means that Ma Shouyang went to Yueming Lake, took away the valuable things inside, and then fled."

"Originally we thought so too."

"original?"

"After a large number of information forums, we visited and questioned many monks. Three monks said that when they passed Yueming Lake on August 16th, they saw a torn space left in the air. It was very long, about a hundred feet long. "

Xue Jing raised his head and glanced at him: "August 16, isn't it the day Ma Shouyang disappeared? What do you think?"

"Obviously, someone is fighting here, and it is very likely that Ma Shouyang has died. A huge space crack a hundred feet long is not a magical power that a monk at the level of a god can display. If Ma Shouyang meets this person, it will probably be very bad. "

"Hmm." Xue Jing muttered: "Ma Shouyang learned about the place where Qianjia Sect's treasure was hidden, so he quietly left Haimang Mountain, hoping to take away the treasure without anyone noticing before others discovered it, but... But for some unknown reason, he got into trouble with others and ended up being killed. Everything seemed to be going well. "

"Yes, we have deduced this too, but now everything is just speculation. Whether Ma Shouyang is alive or dead, we have to check his soul stone before making a conclusion. A file of Ma Shouyang's disappearance has been sent to Yuanxian County urgently, so we should wait Answer over there!”

"Don't you think this is a bit unusual?"

"A little bit, indeed."

"Tell me."

The man said: "There are three doubts. First, there seems to be no need for Qianjia Sect to hide supplies elsewhere. The Chamber of Commerce is neutral and easy to access, so why hide it in Yueming Lake instead of being close?"

"Second, who killed Ma Shouyang and why? Ma Shouyang is the head of the branch in this city. No matter how much everyone respects him, how could he kill him at the slightest disagreement?"

"Third, Ma Shouyang knows that we are here to investigate corruption matters. He dares to go out privately at this time and collect treasures secretly. He is too courageous. As far as I know, he is a relatively mature and cautious person. Isn't this true? It’s in line with his usual style.”

Xue Dingding nodded: "This matter is a bit strange. I always feel that something is not right. There may be some key points that we have missed. I wonder if there is such a possibility that Ma Shouyang was invited to Yueming Lake by someone else, and then Being killed and silenced?”

"You mean, the whole thing is actually a trap for Ma Shouyang?"

"I don't know, I just think things are a little weird."

The man pondered: "If Ma Shouyang is really the person behind the corruption case in Xuantang City, he may indeed be killed and silenced, just like Wei Ting. Based on this inference, is there another big fish behind Ma Shouyang?"

Xue Jingdao: "We are still in the inference stage. Let's be bold. Let's assume that Ma Shouyang is really the mastermind behind the corruption case in Xuantang City. Who could be the person who killed Ma Shouyang?"

The man pondered: "There are no traces of fighting around Yueming Lake, and from what witnesses said, there was a torn space of 100 feet in the mid-air of Yueming Lake. From this, we can infer that the person who killed him should be a Void Refining monk."

"After the supervision team secretly arrested Peng Zhiyuan, Wei Ting, who was related to Peng Zhiyuan, was immediately silenced. It was obvious that the person behind the scenes got the news. Why did Ma Shouyang get the news so quickly? There are two possibilities. First, the supervision team did not provide him with ventilation The person who reported the information, secondly, the person who reported the information to him was a senior executive of the Yuanxian County branch. "

The man said: "Two days after the inspection team secretly arrested Peng Yuanzhi, Wei Ting disappeared. At that time, the inspection team was still on its way to Yuanxian County, and the senior officials of the Yuanxian County branch did not know this information."

Xue Jingdao: "It is not necessarily notified when arresting, but may be notified in advance. The supervision team came to Xuantang City to investigate the corruption case. It may have been discovered by a senior executive of the Yuanxian County branch in advance, so they sent someone to notify Ma Shouyang and waited for Ma Shouyang to pick up. By the time the information arrived, Peng Yuanzhi had already been arrested, so he decisively killed Wei Ting who was related to him."

"As we came to Xuantang City and continued to investigate the corruption case, the people behind Ma Shouyang were worried that he would be discovered and implicate themselves, so they devised a plan to kill Ma Shouyang."

The man nodded and said: "This possibility is not impossible, but why would Ma Shouyang go out with the central formation disk?"

"Perhaps the materials stored by the Qianjia Sect are simply a trap, a well-designed scheme. The people behind the scenes want us to think that Ma Shouyang is afraid of trouble, so he steals the materials of the Qianjia Sect and escapes. Let's do this! Let's divide our forces. "Two lines, you can continue to investigate the corruption matter further. I will go back to Yuanxian County to report the matter and check whether any senior officials of the Yuanxian County branch have left the station during this period."

"good."

…

In the Tianniu Mountains, in a majestic cave, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the room, practicing with her eyes closed, when there was a knock on the door outside.

He opened his eyes from trance, waved his hand, spiritual power shot out, and the stone door opened without any wind.

Gu Yuanya led Gao Yuan and Chen Xiaofan in from the outside, her eyes a little dodgy, she timidly raised her head and glanced at him, and called out softly: "Master, Senior Brother Chen and Junior Brother Gao have something to see you."

Looking at her appearance, Tang Ning roughly guessed that Yan Qing had been missing for more than two months.

Chen Xiaofan and Gao Yuan must have found her to ask about the situation, but she couldn't hide it. She didn't know how to deal with it, so she had to bring them over.

"Disciple pays homage to Master." The two of them bowed and saluted and said in unison.

"sit down!"

"Thank you, Uncle Master." The two of them took their seats as instructed, while Gu Yuanya silently walked to Tang Ning, bowing her head and saying nothing.

"Tell me! What are you doing here?"

The two looked at each other, and Gao Yuan said: "Uncle, Junior Brother Yan has been missing for two months. We were worried that something had happened, so we went to Senior Sister Gu to inquire about the news. It was Senior Sister Gu who said, let's go directly Come to see you."

Tangning turned her head and glanced at Gu Yuanya beside her. Sensing his gaze, her head dropped lower, almost shrinking into her neck.

"Yan Qing is dead." Tang Ning told them straightforwardly without beating around the bush. Yuan Ya's expression clearly could not be concealed from the two people who got along day and night. If she continued to be secretive, it would only arouse more doubts and uneasiness between them.

What's more, on the day Yan Qing disappeared, she clearly went out with Yuan Ya. This matter was found out after checking in the guard hall.

Instead of trying so hard to weave lies to hide it, it is better to tell the truth. Yan Qing's death can be concealed for a while, but it cannot be concealed for a lifetime.

He had a clear conscience about this matter. He knew that he had done his best and there was no need to hide it.

"What?" After hearing this, the two looked at each other again. Shock flashed across Chen Xiaofan's face, but Gao Yuan was very shocked.

"May I ask, Uncle Master, how did Junior Brother Yan die?"

"Killed by someone else."

"Who did it?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, he deserves to die. If others don't kill him, I will kill him with my own hands."

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were really shocked. Even Chen Xiaofan, who had always been steady and scheming, was stunned.

"I dare to ask, uncle, why is this? What did Junior Brother Yan do?" Chen Xiaofan came back to his senses, rolled his throat, and asked.

"I would like to ask you, don't you know anything about what Yan Qing did?"

"I wonder what Uncle Master is referring to?"

"Okay, let's talk about it today! Do you really know anything about Yan Qing's affair with the Netherworld Sea Organization?"

Gao Yuan said in disbelief: "Junior Brother Yan had an affair with the Netherworld Sea Organization. Who said this? How is this possible?"

"There is nothing impossible. Even Taixuanzong has many insiders from the Netherworld Sea Organization, let alone him. But when I say that he deserves to die, I don't mean that he had an affair with the Netherworld Sea Organization, but that he wanted to kill Yuan Ya and me. "To death."

"How is this possible? Uncle Master, there must be some misunderstanding here." Gao Yuan said with shock and disbelief.

"You guys get along day and night, are you really not aware of it at all? Yan Qing actually hates me very much in his heart. He has always wanted to take revenge on me. He was instigated to rebel and joined the Netherworld Sea Organization just to deal with me."

After hearing this, Gao Yuan had no reaction, still looking shocked and disbelieving, but something strange flashed in Chen Xiaofan's eyes.

Tang Ning kept staring at them, and he saw the subtle expressions of the two of them. He continued to talk to himself: "In 1214, when Yan Qing was arrested by the Luo family, you must all still remember. At that time, he He injured two disciples of the Luo family, and the Luo family will hand him over to the alliance and be sentenced to two hundred years in prison."

"I looked for connections everywhere, and finally Guan Pingchao came forward to settle the matter. The Luo family dropped the charges and he was acquitted."

"But deep down in his heart, he was not grateful to me. Instead, he hated me for this matter. Because I did not rescue Xu Yunsheng from the clutches of the Luo family, and failed to allow them to stay and fly together freely."

"Xu Yunsheng was tortured to death later, and Yan Qing put the blame on me."

"Sheng Mi's kindness and fight with Mi's hatred are nothing more than this."

"Later, he contacted the Netherworld Sea organization and continued to provide them with information about me. The purpose was to use the power of the Netherworld Sea to take revenge on me."

"This time, a monk in the Nether Sea organization who had a personal enmity with me wanted to deal with me. They set up a trap. Yan Qing faked the news about me and tricked Yuan Ya out, which led to Yuan Ya being kidnapped."

"They originally wanted to threaten me with Yuan Ya, but fortunately I saw through their plan and solved Yuan Ya."

"The person who planned this plot was afraid that Yan Qing would fall into my hands and confess what he planned. He took witnesses to settle the score with him within the Nether Sea organization, so he killed Yan Qing and died without any evidence."

It was impossible for Tang Ning to tell them about being forced to kill Ma Shouyang, so she just lied.
