The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

This reminded him of his past hatred, and he could no longer suppress the resentment in his heart. So he decided to kill everyone related to Fire Rain Manor and settle all the grudges.

.. .. 0

Therefore, he first sneaked into Zilan Pavilion, intending to kill Nongyu.

However, due to Zi Nu's arrival, the plan failed.

This mishap did not calm him down; instead, it made him even angrier.

He infiltrated Liu Yi's residence directly.

Then I heard Madam Hu and Liu Yi arguing again.

I heard them talk about the old stories of Huoyu Manor and the old stories of Baiyue.

After the commotion subsided, the vulture took advantage of Liu Yi's return to the next room and stormed into Liu Yi's room, intending to kill him. Faced with a life-or-death threat, Liu Yi first resisted, but after his resistance failed, he activated the secret chamber mechanism and prepared to hide inside.

Finally, the vulture followed them into the secret chamber.

They killed Liu Yi there, and then searched all over Liu Yi's room, but did not find the treasure.

It made him furious.

Therefore, he left behind the symbols of the Baiyue people to indicate that Liu Yi's death was his own fault.

As he left the symbols, he gradually calmed down and began to clean up the scene. He even took Liu Yi's body outside the secret room to make it appear that Liu Yi died outside the secret room, in order to cover up the truth that he had killed Liu Yi.

However, even after doing all this, even after Liu Yi died, Wujiu felt no joy in his heart.

Simply because he didn't find the treasure.

Back then, the three brothers were busy searching for the treasure, and after the deaths of two brothers, the treasure became his greatest obsession.

Chapter 74 Cut off all clues

However, now there is nothing left.

Liu Yi has been killed by him, and the treasure has not been found by him either.

What's the point of him living?

The vulture was bewildered.

Just as he was venting his emotions in the open space, a sharp killing intent suddenly struck, and the vulture felt a chill run down his spine.

As a bird among birds, in addition to his exceptional lightness skills, his swordsmanship is also extremely remarkable.

Sensing the killing intent, he immediately swung his sword.

A longsword gleaming with pink light clashed with the sword in his hand, and then the vulture felt an overwhelming sense of pressure coming at him. He was immediately knocked away, and at the same time, a hideous wound appeared on his body.

The face beneath the vulture mask immediately changed; he realized that the attacker was no ordinary person.

escape.

The vulture was very rational; it decisively chose to flee.

"220" immediately used his superb lightness skill to prepare to escape.

However, the attacker's lightness skill was no less than hers.

As a former top-ranking member of the Luo Wang organization, Ru Shuang possessed unique methods for finding people. Otherwise, she would not have been able to repeatedly track down Wu Ming and hunt him down.

After obtaining clues about the vulture's whereabouts from Jiang Chuan, she quickly located the vulture.

Then, they began to hunt down the vulture.

She didn't want to know why her husband wanted to kill the vulture.

She simply believed that the vulture had to die.

Despite managing to escape a distance under Ru Shuang's pursuit, Wu Jiu ultimately died by Ru Shuang's sword.

After killing the vulture, Ru Shuang dug a deep pit and buried the vulture's carcass in it.

After leveling the ground.

She cleaned up the traces of the fight and then left the woods.

No one would know that a battle had taken place in these woods, and no one would know that the vulture perished here.

……

Killing the vulture was a trivial matter for Ru Shuang.

However, for Han Fei, the difficulty of solving the case of Liu Yi's death increased rapidly.

There are too few clues.

Currently, all that is known is that before Liu Yi was murdered, he had an argument with Madam Hu. Afterwards, the assassin broke into Liu Yi's room, killed him in a secret room, and then moved his body outside.

In addition, the murderer was a Baiyue person, which is why he left that symbol.

But why did the murderer kill Liu Yi?

That's another problem.

Clearly, this involves the history of the Baiyue people.

What is the history between Liu Yi and Baiyue?

Following this clue, Han Fei sent Wei Zhuang to investigate the truth. Wei Zhuang found Tang Qi, the former leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect who had experienced the Baiyue War, and asked Tang Qi about the Baiyue.

All that was known was that Liu Yi had served under Bai Yifei and made great contributions in the Baiyue War.

Aside from that, there weren't many useful clues.

The main reason is that Wujiu was killed by Rushuang before that, so there was no way he could have ordered Poison Scorpion to kidnap Li Kai.

In the original novel, he may have learned of Li Kai's existence from the argument between Madam Hu and Liu Yi, and believed that Li Kai was an important figure involved in the treasure of Huoyu Manor. Therefore, after Liu Yi died and the treasure was not found, he placed his hopes on Li Kai and ordered Poison Scorpion to kidnap Li Kai.

But now that he had been killed by Ru Shuang long ago, he naturally hadn't thought of this matter, and therefore the kidnapping of Li Kai was no longer an option.

Wei Zhuang had not obtained this crucial clue and was only seeking information about the Baiyue from Tang Qi, so naturally he was unaware of the grudges and feuds within Huoyu Manor.

Therefore, this lead has also gone cold.

But Han Fei truly lived up to his name.

After this lead went cold, he prepared to seek a breakthrough from Madam Hu.

According to the servants of Liu Yi's residence, Liu Yi and Madam Hu had an argument on the night Liu Yi died.

Why were they arguing?

Through Honglian's connection, Han Fei finally met Hu Meiren.

Hu Meiren was the younger sister of Madam Hu.

On the day of the argument, she happened to be with Mrs. Hu, and they were watching a play together at the theater.

Han Fei obtained an important clue from Hu Meiren.

That is, on that day, her sister seemed to see an old figure from behind. After seeing the figure, her sister was in a daze. However, when her sister tried to look for it, the figure disappeared.

Han Fei concluded that this aged figure was the key to solving the case.

So, they sent Wei Zhuang to search again.

However, nothing was found.

There is a reason for this, of course.

In a carriage far from Xinzheng, an elderly figure sat with a complex expression...

He is Li Kai.

More than ten years ago, during the Baiyue War, he was framed by his colleague Liu Yi and surrounded. But like the vulture, Liu Yi seemed to have the ability to frame anyone without them dying completely.

Li Kai did not die either.

He struggled to survive, but his injuries were so severe that he was unrecognizable.

Later, he returned to Xinzheng with great difficulty, but because of his appearance, he did not choose to meet with his old friends.

To make a living, he cleaned in the theater.

But unexpectedly, he would meet Mrs. Hu at the theater.

Upon seeing Madam Hu, whose appearance remained unchanged, Li Kai felt conflicted. Knowing that his appearance was frightening, he chose to avoid her.

However, because of this incident, his feelings have become increasingly complicated lately.

Should we stay in Xinzheng, or should we open a branch in Xinzheng?

Just then, a young man came up to him.

He told him directly to leave.

The young man spoke to him at length, saying that the affairs of the Baiyue people were now in the past. If he continued to stay in Xinzheng, he would only dredge up those old stories again, causing trouble for many people.

Although that person didn't say who it would cause trouble.

But Li Kai understood.

Yes, Mrs. Hu has started a new life.
