Song Changsheng's cold voice echoed in the air, and Song Zhexuan's face turned ashen. Although they had only fought for a few rounds, he was crushed by the opponent in terms of strength, speed, and even magical powers.

"Don't let this old man know who you are!" Song Zhexuan hated in his heart that someone had kidnapped a younger member of the family in front of him and got away with it. This was simply trampling his face into the dust.

He hadn't felt this deep sense of powerlessness for a long time.

"Elder, elder."

At this moment, he heard the exclamations of Song Muchi and others. Turning back, he found that Song Qingxuan's condition was extremely bad. Not only did she suffer the backlash of the destruction of the magic weapon, but she was also ambushed by the opponent, and her spine was bent in a strange arc.

"Let's go to Sifang City first!" Song Zhexuan said this while gritting his teeth.

"Then what should we do, elder brother?" Song Muchi's pupils trembled and he blurted out.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Song Zhexuan's face. He also wanted to rescue Song Muqi, but the other party had already touched the way of space, and his speed was more than one level higher than his, so he was simply powerless.

Moreover, Song Qingxuan is now seriously injured and must find a safe place for treatment immediately. If she is left alone and the murderer is chased, not to mention whether Song Qingxuan will suffer hidden injuries in the future, it will be troublesome if the murderer is lured away from the mountain.

Things have their priorities, and people have their weights as well. Song Muqi's status is not so important that he has to give up on other people.

"If I go after him now, and he comes back, how can you resist him? The best plan now is to rush to Sifang City. Only there can you guarantee your safety. You can also use the power of the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce to find the murderer and rescue Mu Qi."

These words left Song Muchi speechless. He had already witnessed the murderer's terrifying strength. He could tear apart magic weapons with his bare hands. Even Song Zhexuan was no match for him. If the other party made a surprise attack, they would end up being wiped out.

Now, they can only hope that the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce can help them find the murderer and rescue Song Muqi. Apart from this, there is no other way...

Just when Song Zhexuan and others rushed to the Bandung Chamber of Commerce for help, Song Changsheng had already fled thousands of miles away and came to a deserted mountain area.

With a wave of his hand, he blasted a big hole in the hard mountain wall. After setting up a formation to conceal and isolate the breath, he casually threw Song Muqi, whose meridians and acupoints had been blocked by him, into the hole.

Song Muqi stared at Song Changsheng with his eyes wide open, his expression relatively calm, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you, and what do you want to do by arresting me?"

"You don't need to know who I am. I will ask you a few questions. As long as you answer truthfully, I may consider sparing your life." Song Changsheng naturally would not do such a stupid thing as revealing his identity.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of taking action directly, Song Muqi breathed a sigh of relief and said cooperatively: "Just ask whatever you want to know."

"What is your purpose in going to the Great Qi Cultivation World?"

"My clan has a branch in Da Qi. We are ordered by our family to find a mermaid." Song Muqi answered honestly.

"Is it that simple?" Song Changsheng squatted down in front of him, staring at his eyes with a pair of sharp eyes, and said in a grim tone: "Do you really think that I know nothing?"

How many people has Song Changsheng killed?

Even he himself did not have an exact answer to this question. Over the past few decades, his hands were already stained with countless blood, and he had a surge of murderous intent in his body.

The moment this murderous intent was released, Song Muqi only felt that a sea of ​​blood and corpses appeared before his eyes. The strong evil aura and smell of blood made it difficult for him to breathe.

Under the gaze of that pair of deep and sharp eyes, he felt that he had been completely seen through by the other party, and this feeling terrified him.

"I... I'm telling the truth. I'm just looking for the mermaid." Song Muqi's throat rolled with difficulty, and his voice became a little stuttering.

"Then why are you gathering intelligence everywhere in Da Qi?"

Hearing this, Song Muqi's pupils trembled, and he said in shock: "You...you know everything."

He quickly realized what was going on and blurted out, "Have you been following us?"

"It's not that stupid, to be honest, otherwise..." A cold light flashed in Song Changsheng's eyes, and the meaning revealed was self-evident.

Song Muqi's heart was beating wildly. He could already feel the breath of death approaching. On the question of loyalty to the family or to himself, he quickly made a decision and said with his neck stiff, "I have told you everything I know, believe it or not!"

"Heh, I didn't expect you still have some backbone." There was a hint of admiration in Song Changsheng's eyes. No matter what this person's character was, he could still stick to his bottom line in the face of death, which was worthy of his family's training.

However, appreciation is one thing, but you must not lose anything that you deserve!
"Since you don't want to tell me, I will take it myself."

After saying that, Song Changsheng directly activated the [Soul Searching Technique], placed his big hand on top of Song Muqi's head, and his spiritual thoughts spread into his sea of ​​consciousness like a plague.

"what--"

Song Muqi's sea of ​​consciousness defense was like paper in front of Song Changsheng and was defeated in an instant.

The shrill screams echoed in the cave and lasted for more than half an hour before slowly subsiding. Song Changsheng slowly withdrew his hand. Song Muqi, who was full of energy just now, was now bleeding from all seven orifices, unconscious, and his breathing was abnormally weak. It was obvious that he was breathing out more than breathing in.

But Song Changsheng didn't even bother to look at him. He was currently digesting the information he had obtained from searching Song Muqi's soul.

The first is about their origins in the Da Qi cultivation world. As he had guessed before, in addition to looking for Kongsang Xiruo, they actually had some plans for Da Qi.

But Song Muqi's knowledge was limited, and he was not clear about the details. He only knew that it was related to a prophecy. He didn't know where the prophecy came from, and the content was only a very short sentence - benefits are in the southwest.

This sentence without a beginning or an end makes people confused.

Where does this “profit” come from? Why is there “profit”? What is this “profit” for?
I have no clue at all.

However, from a macro perspective, the territory where Da Qi is located is located exactly in the southwest of the human race's cultivation world. But looking at the vast territory of the human race, the scope of this southwest is too large, including nearly twenty cultivation worlds, and Da Qi is only a part of it.

The prophecy is unclear and has a wide scope. According to Song Changsheng's speculation, the actions of Song Zhexuan and others in Da Qi should not have any special plans or meanings.

Maybe he was just influenced by the prophecy and made arrangements in advance. No one can say whether he will intervene later.

Song Changsheng did not spend too much energy on this, and instead began to look for the cause and mastermind behind Song Lu Ke's death.

Song Muqi knew much more about this matter because he was one of the eyewitnesses.

It turned out that Song Muqi was from the sixth branch of the main lineage. There were currently three Purple Mansion cultivators in their branch. Among them, the one with the greatest power and the highest cultivation level was Song Jiquan, who had reached the Purple Mansion Great Perfection.

Next up is Song Muqi's great grandfather Song Xiangjie, who is in the middle stage of Purple Mansion, and his grandfather Song Qingquan, who is in the early stage of Purple Mansion.

The "Ji" generation corresponds to the "Chu" generation of cultivators in the Wangyue Song family. They are only one generation younger than Song Taiyi. Even in the ancestral lineage, they are the ones with the highest seniority except for a few Jindan Zhenren.

Song Jiquan serves as the foreign affairs elder of the main lineage, and his main job is to manage cultivators like Song Lu Ke who join the main lineage from side branches.

It can be said that he was the one who planned Song Lu Ke's demise.

At the beginning, Song Lu Ke participated in the trial as a candidate for the family's Purple Mansion. He defeated several seeded players from the six houses in succession, which made Song Jiquan resentful.

At that time, the internal strife in the main vein had become very serious. The six branches led by Song Jiquan were fighting fiercely to seize the power in Song Shouhe's hands.

In order to achieve his goal, Song Jiquan urgently needed to increase the weight of the Sixth Branch in the Elder Council, so he placed his hopes on the Purple Mansion Trial. Unexpectedly, the Sixth Branch did not get any of the ten places, but Song Lu Ke from the side branch stood out.

After finding out that Song Lu Ke had no background, Song Jiquan began to plan all this.

He first took advantage of his position and downgraded a monster hunting mission that should have been completed by multiple cultivators in the late foundation building stage or above and assigned it to Song Lu Ke before he went into seclusion to break through, hoping to kill Song Lu Ke with the help of the monster.

However, he did not expect that Song Lu Ke was so powerful that he not only killed the Green Scaled Python that was only one step away from the third level, but also slaughtered the entire tribe.

He was not a rookie and he immediately realized that there was something wrong with this mission.

Song Jiquan was naturally aware of this. In order to prevent the matter from being exposed, he sent five foundation-building cultivators including Song Muqi to intercept and kill them.

Song Lu Ke was already seriously injured and was besieged. After fighting for several hours, he died of exhaustion and took someone with him before he died.

After the spoils were distributed, because of the first contribution, the [Sky-Covering Umbrella] fell into Song Muqi's hands.

As soon as he succeeded, Song Jiquan contacted some elders and forcibly allocated the [Yin Yang Purple Tree Heart] that originally belonged to Song Lu Ke to the Sixth House.

When he found out that Song Yulong and his sister were still investigating the matter, he continued to use his position to persecute them, which eventually led to a tragedy.

After watching all this, Song Changsheng took a deep breath and felt a little pain in his heart. If it weren't for the persecution from these people, Song Lu Ke would have had a bright future.

"He really deserves to die." Song Changsheng murmured softly.

He glanced at Song Muqi, who had become a puddle of mud, raised his hand, and shattered his heart and soul with a palm. Finally, the [Purple Void Divine Fire] suddenly appeared and directly devoured the corpse, leaving no ashes.

He picked up the storage bag on the ground, waved his hand to break the restriction, and took out the [Sky-Covering Umbrella] that was cut by Song Qingxia's sword.

"After all, it is the family that has dragged you down, but please rest assured, uncle, the family will make them pay for their blood debt with blood. Today, we are just collecting some interest."

Waving his sleeves to erase all traces, Song Changsheng quickly left the territory of Gusu cultivation world, made a detour to Dayu cultivation world, and finally returned to Daqi cultivation world through the black market with a changed appearance.

This system reduces the risk of exposure to a minimum.

This trip took nearly five months, and everything was normal for the Song family. However, Song Luyun, the only one who knew the inside story, was extremely anxious.

Only when she saw Song Changsheng returning to his clan did she feel relieved and asked about the details of the trip.

"Has the wanted order been passed to Da Qi?" Song Changsheng asked lightly as he took the spiritual tea handed over by Song Luyun.

"I've received it a long time ago. Although it was sent through the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce, the person offering the reward is the Song family of Jinxiu Banner. The reward is two million low-grade spirit stones. However, there has not been much response in the surrounding areas." As he spoke, Song Luyun handed the reward order to Song Changsheng.

"Normal. The reward is indeed not low, but the one we need to face is a Purple Mansion Great Perfection cultivator who has also cultivated [The Universe in the Sleeve]. Those with strength will not look down on the two million spirit stone reward, and those without strength will not dare to rashly offend such an enemy."

Song Changsheng put the bounty order on the table and said slowly: "The most important thing is that the Daqian cultivation world is too far away from here, and they lack influence in Daqi.

The influential Bandung Chamber of Commerce is unlikely to get involved. I think this matter will come to nothing in the end.

How did the family handle it?"

"When I received the reward, I also issued a bounty order in the name of the family." Song Luyun said with a smile.

"Good, what aunt did is exactly what I want." A smile immediately appeared on Song Changsheng's face. With Song Luyun around, he really felt less worried.

"By the way, how is the progress over at Youfu's end?" Song Changsheng suddenly remembered that he still had a "gold miner" working outside. It had been a year and a half, and he didn't know if there had been any gains.

"We just received news some time ago that the thousand-foot-deep pool had been destroyed in an earthquake. Youfu and his companions searched the surrounding area for a long time, but found nothing after digging a thousand feet underground. They had no choice but to give up and look for the second treasure." Song Luyun's tone was quite regretful.

The first place is the least dangerous one and also the one with the most low-level resources. After all, this is the "newbie gift package" prepared by Master Yu Shu for himself.

According to the agreement, all resources below level three belong to the Song family, which is a pity.

Song Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "The second place... seems to be located in the heart of Dayu's cultivation world, right?"

"Yes, it is the territory of Qingyang Palace, and it is also the core area, which makes it much more difficult."

"Once they leave the territory of Da Qi, the support the family can give them is limited. The rest depends on themselves." Song Changsheng sighed. He originally thought that Song Youfu, this "lucky fish", could bring him a good start, but he didn't expect that it failed this time.

"Qingshi is already trying his best to spread the spider web to the Dayu cultivation world, and strive to provide them with more intelligence support."

"Yeah." Song Changsheng nodded slightly, and then suddenly remembered that he seemed to have a disciple who was left alone, so he couldn't help but ask, "By the way, has Chi Li returned to the clan?"

"He's back, but he doesn't seem to be in a good mood. He must have suffered some hardships outside, so he is now concentrating on practicing hard."

Song Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this and smiled faintly: "Let him come to see me."
