Fire Phoenix Burns the Sky: Ms. Heaven-defying Useless Material

Chapter 290 New Clues

"Why did you ask me such a question all of a sudden?" The turbulent and suppressed emotional tide finally receded slowly, Qinghui held Chu Liyue tightly in his arms with both arms, and slowly calmed down his breathing and heartbeat.Chu Liyue held his big hand on her waist with one hand, and asked softly.

How could he suddenly ask himself this question?Qinghui has always been proud and confident, but the question just now clearly revealed the uneasiness in his heart.He was afraid of failing again, so afraid that he needed affirmation and support from Chu Liyue.

Qinghui lay on the bed hugging Chu Liyue, with one arm passing under her neck, and one hand on Chu Liyue's waist, allowing her to fiddle with her fingers gently.Hearing Chu Liyue's question, he replied in a deep voice: "I have already started to appear by your side with my real face, and Eldest Senior Brother may have already set his sights on you."

Thinking of Eldest Senior Brother's gentle and thoughtful temperament, he has always done things meticulously, until now he doesn't know why he offended Eldest Senior Brother.If it was a head-to-head fight, Qinghui would definitely not worry that he would not be able to defeat him, but when it came to planning secretly, he really didn't know how the elder brother would do it.

Ever since he absorbed the heart in Feiye City, it was impossible for him to hide his tracks.Besides, he will never leave his important person again.He would rather die with her than be separated from her.He was so selfish. From the very beginning when he called her into this world, he had already decided that both the soul and body must belong to him.

But Qinghui still wanted to confirm Chu Liyue's attitude again.He wanted to know, when she knew that what she was facing might be an emperor who had accumulated strength for more than a thousand years, could she still insist on never being separated as before.

He just wanted to hear her words of affirmation.

"Are you afraid of him?" Chu Liyue asked suddenly.Qinghui is so disturbed, is he really so afraid of senior brother?

"Because I still don't understand why, and I can't understand what he did." Qinghui's tone was rarely confused.

Sometimes he even wondered if it was true that he committed an unforgivable crime for the elder brother at a certain time that he didn't know, which made the elder brother hate him so much and treat him so cruelly.

If this is really the case, then senior brother should come directly to him and make it clear. If he really did something wrong, he will definitely take the corresponding responsibility, even if it is at the cost of his life.

Why didn't he even ask a question, didn't even give himself a chance to explain?
Eldest brother doesn't trust him at all?They are like brothers and sisters, they are each other's most important relatives, even if they let him die, they must give him a reason.

In fact, most of the time, he just wanted to stand in front of the elder brother and ask him "why".Why did the love for so many years suddenly turn into a hatred that wanted to tear him apart and suppress it?
Qinghui tightened the line of her lips, and buried her head on Chu Liyue's shoulder.Everything he has endured must be returned to the person who made it all.

He has never changed this determination, but what he is struggling with these days is only for the girl in his arms.He doesn't mind dying with her.He only wanted her to think the same.

She said she was willing to die with the enemy to save him.No, he doesn't need it, he doesn't need to be alone for thousands of years.As long as there are her words, his heart will see the light of day again.

Resisting the smile at the corner of his mouth, Qinghui changed the subject: "I found that there seems to be a new clue to the death of Chu Ren and his wife."

Chu Liyue turned around in surprise, raised one arm and looked at his handsome face lying flat on the bed.

"I just found out today that the Pang family tried to buy someone to steal the Chu family's vitality finger."

The owner of the shadow building and his confidantes were all killed by Qinghui without hesitation, and the rest of them trembled, not daring to disobey Qinghui's orders at all.

This time Qinghui finally gave them a serious task, to get rid of Pang Jia Sanying who had become a waste.The task is not difficult. For those who are good at shadow stealth, all they need to pay is a lot of monitoring and waiting.

It's just that when they started to fight on the flying boat, the head deputy owner of the shadow building suddenly recognized Pang Jianbai's aura, and felt as if they had dealt with each other before.Sure enough, he went back to check the records of the Shadow House, only to find that Pang Jianbai went to the reception of the Shadow House in disguise more than ten years ago, and entrusted the Shadow House to steal a gray and white box from Chu's house.

According to Pang Jianbai's description, that box is basically the box of the vitality finger.

At that time, it was Chu Ren who had just become the Duke of Zhen.

Prior to this, Chu Ren saved the two most prestigious elders of the Chu family with his vitality finger, suppressed several elders who dared to resist by force, and gained the Chu family into his pocket while showing favor and authority.

Pang Jianbai was just an unmarried young man at that time, and Yi Rong went to the shadow building to make a commission, asking the shadow building to steal the vitality of the Chu family.However, the shadow building sent three times in a row, but they were like sheep entering the mouth of a tiger. In the end, they had to return the deposit and pay compensation.

Because this kind of thing is very rare in the history of the shadow building, the deputy owner of the shadow building who was in charge of training the manpower at that time was deeply impressed by it.After he recognized Pang Jianbai, he decided to tell Qinghui the details.

Qinghui seemed to be groping forward in the dark, suddenly saw a dim light, and suddenly found a path that he had ignored.

Because in Li Bing's memory, there are also some things about Minggu.

Li Bing was born in poverty, but had good qualifications, so he was recruited by the army when he was very young.Fortunately, after he opened the top-grade profound orifice, he was favored by the nobleman, selected as a personal soldier, and gave him a meteor soul.

From then on, Li Bing followed this nobleman, from a personal soldier to a personal bodyguard and confidant, until later he became the city lord of Xinghuan City and the new national teacher of Beimo.

"Do you know who the nobleman who promoted Li Bing is?" Qinghui asked in a low voice.

Without waiting for Chu Liyue to speak, he answered by himself: "Qin Yuetang, son-in-law of Beimo."

Chu Liyue's expression became serious all of a sudden, Qin Yuetang, the Beimo strongman who participated in the Feilei Mountain Conference with Chu Ren.

Looking at Qinghui's face, she seemed to guess something: "Could it be that Qin Yuetang also did something related to Ming Gu?"

"That's right." Qinghui looked at Chu Liyue appreciatively, "Li Bing is Qin Yuetang's confidant and knows many of his secrets. In his memory, Qin Yuetang once ordered the search for the ghost bone, no matter what Whether it’s a container or a ghost bone that hasn’t been carved or modified, it’s all in his collection.”

"This order is still in effect to this day. He has a large number of people all over the northern desert, and he has been looking for ghost bones for many years. It has been decades."

Chu Liyue raised her eyebrows: "That is to say, before Chu Ren got the vitality finger, Qin Yuetang was already looking for the ghost bone?"

Pluto, what special purpose does it have?A strong man like Qin Yuetang has been searching for decades, and the dark clan lurking in Shizhou's Wang family attaches great importance to it. Yan Xing's family was ruined because he got the long box of ghost bones, and the Pang family even wanted to buy someone to steal the vitality of the Chu family. Means, is it for the ghost bone box or the finger bone in it?

"Coincidentally, in Chixu'er's memory, he once sold the ghost bones obtained from the robbery at a high price. Most of the buyers are also from Qin Yuetang."

"There is also the cuttlefish from Nanqi. As a senior member of Nanqi's intelligence organization, he also remembers that their regent Qi Yuxiao once collected this gray-white bone stone."

If so, maybe Chu Ren's death really has a new interpretation angle?
Chu Liyue frowned and asked, "They want the ghost bones, not your bones, right?"

She remembered that the Dark Clan didn't particularly care about the bones in the ghost bone box, but paid more attention to the ghost bone box.The same is true for Qin Yuetang, whether it is a ghost bone or a box, obviously the target is also a ghost bone.

"It should be." Qinghui guessed.

"Then, what's so special about Minggu that makes so many big figures search in secret?" Chu Liyue looked at Qinghui, hoping he could give an answer.

Qinghui has actually thought about this issue too. He frowned and said: "Actually, the ghost bone may not have much meaning to the human race or the beast race. It's just very important to the dark race."

He has Yue Xuanqing's memory, and with his own understanding back then, he knows the situation of the Dark Clan in detail.

"The dark people have no father and no mother, they are raised by nature. They are formed by the condensation of the dark and silent air in the world. The place where they were born is called the 'Spiritual Valley'. From the moment they were born, they have the ability to devour their own kind to strengthen themselves Instinct, so in the Spirit Valley, only a small number of dark people can go out alive."

"The weak meat and the strong eat the strong within the Dark Clan, and the ranks are divided by strength. The boundaries between upper and lower are very clear. Every Dark Clan must guard against being attacked and swallowed by the same clan at any time, and grow up in intrigue and mutual conspiracy. The source of their strength is the space between heaven and earth. The dark aura that is naturally produced, and the other is the intense and negative emotions of other creatures."

"The Nether Abyss is said to be the final place where all the dead in the mainland belong. After ordinary people die, they will be completely melted by the water of the Nether Abyss. Only powerful cultivators will leave pieces of ghost bones of different sizes, which condense into Bone stones at the bottom of the abyss."

"These bone stones contain the purest dark aura, which is the power of death. For the human race or the beast race, the ghost bone can only be used as a material to isolate certain aura or profound energy, but for the dark race, the ghost bone Bone is the precious food that can provide them with the purest nourishment."

"It's just that the dark abyss is unfathomable, and it is listed as a forbidden area by the dark people. The general dark people can't enter at all, and there is no chance to get a bone stone from the depths of the dark abyss."

Chu Liyue asked in puzzlement: "Then, where do so many ghost bones come from on the mainland?" Since the ghost abyss is so important and difficult to enter, why are there so many ghost bones appearing in the human world?

Qinghui sneered: "For a period of time, the Dark Clan was beaten to pieces by the Beast Clan and couldn't shrink back. Even the Nether Abyss fell into the hands of the Beast Clan. Therefore, the Beast Clan occupied the Nether Abyss for thousands of years and collected a large amount of Mingyuan. After the human race defeated the beast race, most of these ghost bones fell into the hands of Xuantianzong."

Those ghost bone boxes containing his limbs or joints were one of the results of his victorious battle with the orcs.

Chu Liyue bowed her head and kissed his thin lips with a sneer, in exchange for a gentle smile from Qinghui.

"So it's the dark people who want to take back the ghost bone and use it for their clan members to cultivate?" Chu Liyue guessed.
