my unparalleled way

Chapter 279 Cracks
It wasn't until this time that the Tianhe defender reacted.

"Stop them!" he growled at his soldiers.

However, it was too late.

Yue Luoning and the others were all light cavalry, how could they, ordinary infantry who had just come to their senses, catch up to them?
When they chased them out, the figures of Yue Luoning and others had already appeared one mile away.

The sequelae of Tianhe Kingdom's peace for many years were undoubtedly revealed at this time.

If it were the royal city guards of Yue Kingdom, Southern Qi, Qingchuan and other countries, they would never be opened so easily.

Even if the other party is a prince from another country, I'm afraid he will order the arrow to be released.

In fact, in terms of personal strength alone, Tianhe soldiers are probably the crown of the six southeastern countries, because they are almost all born hunters.

But the Tianhe Kingdom has not experienced a single war since its founding 200 years ago.

Although these soldiers do not lack training, they lack the baptism of real blood.

In addition, Yue Kingdom itself was stronger than them, so when facing Yue Luoning, their generals lacked decisiveness, and their soldiers lacked composure.

"Hurry up and report to His Majesty!"

Seeing that he couldn't catch up, the first reaction of the guarding general was to report to King Tianhe, and he didn't have the consciousness to lead someone to catch up immediately.

Because of his delay, Yue Luoning and the others finally got out of Linjia City safely.

On the other side, Cha Yan led people into the Qingchuan Outer Hall to search.

In fact, Cha Yan had to be grateful to Yue Luoning.It is indeed possible for Lin Si to be hiding in any corner of Linjia City, including Qingchuan and Nanqi foreign halls.

If it wasn't for Yue Luoning to speak up, Cha Yan, who is now in a cooperative relationship with Qingchuan and Nanqi people, would really not be able to speak up.

It would be such a pity if Lin Si was really hiding in this most unimaginable place.

However, he didn't have much hope for finding Lin Si here.

However, what he never expected was that there was really a discovery here.

When a black feather guard came to the hall with a four-foot sickle in his hands as if holding a sacred object, Zha Yan's eyes straightened.

The sickle is not a conventional weapon at all.

It is even rarer than unpopular weapons such as whips and hooks, and Yin Li has used the sickle for seven years, and it has almost become her exclusive weapon.

For many sects on the mainland, as long as the sickle is mentioned, they will immediately think of Yin Li, the young master of the Heart Palace.

For Tianhe people, as long as they mention the daughter of Tianhe, they will naturally think of the sickle that has always been with her.

Although this weapon really affected Yin Li's image, many people in Tianhe had thought countless times that if Yin Li used a sword, it would be more perfect.

However, no matter how hideous a weapon is, it depends on who uses it.Yin Li's almost perfect appearance is placed there, even if she uses a sickle, she is still a 'goddess' in the minds of many people.

And she appeared in Tianhe more than once, and every time she came, she didn't deliberately hide her weapons.

Therefore, when he saw this sickle, Zha Yan recognized it at the first sight. It was the weapon of Her Majesty the Heavenly Maiden!

Not only he and the black feather guards in the hall, but even Lei Zhi, who participated in the battle at the mouth of the canyon, recognized him.

As for Xiang Tang and Yu Hai, although they hadn't looked at Yin Li's scythe carefully, they couldn't imagine what happened when they saw the weird expressions on everyone's faces.

For a while, everyone fell silent.

Why did Yin Li's weapon appear in the Qingchuan Outer Hall?

Could it be that she has been here and left her weapons here?This is simply not possible.

Then there is another possibility, someone stole her weapon.

Who stole her weapon?

To be honest, Zha Yan really didn't immediately think of Lin Si.

After all, he didn't know that Lin Si had been imprisoned under Yin Li's bedroom for the past few days. In his opinion, since Lin Si was going to escape tonight, how could he have time to steal Her Royal Highness Tiannu's weapon?

Even if he has this leisurely mind, the palace is so big, how would he know which bedroom Her Royal Highness Tiannu lives in?

but……

Are you from Qingchuan?It's not like, first of all they don't have this motivation.

Secondly, bringing people here to search here is not as sudden as when they went to the Yue Foreign Pavilion, and they even had enough time to prepare in advance.

If their people really stole it, they could at least hide the sickle in advance.

Moreover, even if it is really them, can he attack on the spot?
His Majesty has just reached a cooperation agreement with them, and the relationship between the two parties has just eased. If it is torn apart because of a sickle, it seems too worthless...

However, Her Majesty's weapon is also of great importance!

If what appeared here were some treasures in the royal palace, Cha Yan would definitely declare immediately that this matter should be blamed by an outsider, so as to clear the suspicion of the Qingchuan people so as not to affect the relationship between the two parties.

Even if he took a step back, if it was really the people from Qingchuan who stole it, he might deliberately pretend that he didn't know.

However, this is Yin Li's weapon.

Although Yin Li has no real power in Tianhe, his status in the hearts of Tianhe people is even higher than the king of Tianhe.

If this matter is not handled well, and she is not given a satisfactory explanation, her heart will be chilled, and she will never return to Tianhe in the future...

It's nothing to lose ordinary treasures, but Her Highness Tiannu is the most precious and priceless treasure in Tianhe Kingdom!

Cha Yan absolutely didn't want to see the consequences.

As for Xiang Tang and others, the first thing they thought of was someone setting the blame, because they never gave this order.

Even if someone under his command acts rashly and steals Yin Li's weapon, he must have this strength!And who is the one who set the blame, they don't even need to think about it.

No wonder Yue Luoning suggested that Cha Yan should come and search the Qingchuan foreign hall!It turned out to be for this moment!
However, looking at Zha Yan's dignified expression, it was hard for them to speak immediately. Instead, they seemed eager to argue and had no confidence in speaking first.

Moreover, they also couldn't understand, how did Yue Luoning do it?
The three state-breakers of the Yue Kingdom were all at the banquet tonight, and almost everything they said and did was exposed under the noses of everyone, without any chance at all.

So it was Lin Si who knocked out Prince Tianhe in the palace tonight?

However, they also thought of the reason why Zha Yan ruled out Lin Si just now, and it seemed unlikely that it was him.

And for them, there is still the biggest doubt.

It was the person who stole the weapon and then blamed them on them, and before they went to the Yue Foreign Pavilion, he communicated with Yue Luoning.

This really made them feel a little dizzy. If that person was Lin Si, they should have blocked him in the Yue Foreign Pavilion just now.

"Where did you find it?"

After a long time, it was Cha Yan who broke the dull atmosphere.

"A room in the courtyard..." The black feather guard who found the sickle replied respectfully.

"lead the way!"

Everyone soon came to the courtyard.

Because of the appearance of this scythe, the Tianhe people's original search operations were temporarily stopped, and many black feather guards and imperial guards stood in the courtyard.

"Whose room does it belong to?" Following the guidance of the black feather guard, Cha Yan and others came to the door of the room.

There was a moment of silence in the arena, and two Qingchuan practitioners in their thirties stood up hesitantly.

One of them said with a bitter face: "It's our room, but we definitely didn't steal this scythe. Someone must have set it up!"

Cha Yan glanced at the two, and asked in a deep voice, "What's your name?"

The person who spoke earlier said: "My name is Han Bao, and his name is Wu Zhiguang."

"What are your cultivation bases?"

"I'm in the late stage of the extreme state, and he's in the middle stage of the extreme state!"

This strength is really not enough to completely get rid of suspicion.Because it is neither high nor low, if the two join forces, it is not surprising that they can do some extraordinary things.

"Are you also going to the palace to have a banquet tonight?" Cha Yan asked.

The two nodded.

The cultivator named Han Bao added: "Shortly after returning from the banquet, the two of us also went to the Moon Foreign Pavilion with Mr. Xiang."

Cha Yan has done things like reviewing cases too many times, and upon hearing this, he asked instinctively: "That is to say, after you came back, did you not spend time with other people?"

"Commander Zha, what do you mean?" Xiang Tang's expression darkened.

Looking at Zha Yan's questioning, it seems that he has not given up his doubts about his two subordinates. The tone of his words is almost the same as interrogating a prisoner, which is simply unreasonable!

Could it be that he really regarded these two as prisoners, and took the short time after they returned here as an opportunity for them to hide their scythes?
"Brother Xiang, be safe and don't be impatient. Her Majesty's weapons are of great importance, and this is a necessary procedure." Of course, Cha Yan could see Xiang Tang's dissatisfaction, and he was even more unwilling to tear himself apart with Xiang Tang.

But he also had no choice but to do it. He could see that these two people should not have done it.

As stupid as they are, they should know to hide the scythe elsewhere before searching.

But since this knife is related to Yin Li, even if he can see in his heart that someone has framed him, he still has to go through some necessary procedures.

It's impossible for this knife to appear in the room of these two people, but he Zha Yan said, I don't think it's you, and then he didn't ask a question, right?That would be too hasty.

Afterwards, if Yin Li knew that he had been so reckless about her affairs, how would he feel?
"Commander Zha, you should be able to tell that this is someone deliberately planting a frame and sowing discord between us! The other party must have taken the opportunity to put the sickle into their room when there was no one in their room during our banquet." Xiang Tang coldly 'reminded'.

Zha Yan nodded slightly noncommittal: "It is indeed possible."

This is already the limit of what he can do. Before the truth of this matter comes to light, he can't make a conclusion on this matter because of Xiang Tang's words, after all, he represents the Tianhe official.

Xiang Tang also didn't produce any actual evidence, just because he said that he had nothing to do with this matter, he immediately agreed with it completely. Doesn't it seem that Tianhe's official decision on the case is based on Xiang Tang's word?

Xiang Tang could see his attitude, and he was quite annoyed to suffer such an indiscriminate disaster.But he couldn't get rid of the suspicion immediately, and he was also quite dissatisfied with the Tianhe people, thinking that they were so stupid that such a simple trick of provocation could not be seen through immediately.

It is naturally impossible for Cha Yan and the others to find out anything here.

In the end, they had no choice but to go back with the sickle and ask King Tianhe and Her Majesty Tiannu for instructions.

In order to take into account the feelings of the Qingchuan people, he did not bring back Han Bao and Wu Zhiguang as suspects like in the previous inspections.

But even so, Xiang Tang who stayed where he was was still pale.

Because Cha Yan didn't directly say "this matter has nothing to do with you" until the end.

If Mu Zheping saw the scene in front of him, he would be extremely surprised.

This sickle was indeed hidden by him when Qingchuan masters went to the palace for a banquet.

However, he felt that this method was too shallow, and the other party should be able to see through it at a glance.

He didn't expect that this scythe actually succeeded in disgusting Qingchuan and Tianhe people.Not only that, but also drew a looming rift between them.
