“Why?”
Ye Qiu looked at the Dragon King doubtfully.
It was so hard to find clues to the murderer and determine that the assassination of the Nine Thousand Years Old was done by someone from the Witch God Cult, why did the Dragon King advise him not to investigate again?
The Dragon King said, “As I said earlier, the Witch God Cult has no bottom line in what they do, they are a bunch of psychopaths, I’m afraid that you’ll be retaliated against after messing with them.”
“If we stop there, then three days later, your life will be gone.”Ye Qiu said.
The Dragon King laughed sagely, “I was already about to die, it’s the same if I die early or late.”
“But I don’t want to break an arm.”Ye Qiu said in a serious manner, “I’m so handsome and have a good job, if I break an arm then I’ll become disabled, and it’ll be difficult to find a wife in the future.”
“That’s still better than messing with the Witch God Cult.”
“Dragon King, if we find the murderer and then hand the murderer over to the Nine Thousand Years to deal with, then this matter has nothing to do with us, if the Witch God Cult wants to take revenge, then they should also go to the Nine Thousand Years.”
“The Witch God Cult will definitely look for the Nine Thousand Years, they won’t give up after this assassination failed. But likewise, they won’t let you go.”
“If they really come to trouble me, then I can use the power of the Nine Thousand Years and the Dragon Sect to fight against the Witch God Cult.”
“You are too naive.”The Dragon King said, “The Witch God Cult is very mysterious, not to mention whether you can find the murderer or not, even if you find the murderer and pass the Nine Thousand Years’ test, the Nine Thousand Years won’t have the time to help you against the Witch God Cult.”
“Why is that?”Ye Qiu was puzzled.
The Dragon King said, “Because the number one priority before the Nine Thousand Years now is to sweep all the underground forces in the world, and before he unifies the world, he can’t spare any time to deal with the Witch God Cult.”
A dilemma na!
Ye Qiu frowned.
If he continued to search for the murderer, he would provoke the Witch God Cult and risk retaliation. If he stopped searching, then the Dragon King would surely die and he would also break an arm.
After thinking for a while, Ye Qiu made up his mind and said, “Let’s find the murderer first, even if the Witch God Cult wants to take revenge on me, that’s something for later.”
The Dragon King wanted to persuade again and said, “But ……”
“Dragon King, don’t you want to find the one who poisoned you?”Ye Qiu said, “As long as we find the murderer, it’s possible to know information about the Witch God Cult, dig out their branch in Jiangzhou, and we might be able to find the person who poisoned you back then.”
“I think Ye Qiu is right, we should keep looking for the murderer.”Zhao Yun supported Ye Qiu’s idea.
The Dragon King said, “I also want to find that person from back then, if I can take revenge before I die, then I will really die without any regrets, it’s just that if we do this, you, Little Ye, will inevitably be subjected to the Witch God Cult’s retaliation.”
“Let’s talk about future things later, right now let’s find the murderer first!”
Seeing Ye Qiu’s resolute attitude, the Dragon King finally nodded.
Zhao Yun asked, “Now that we already know that this matter is the work of the Witch God Cult’s people, where are we going to find them next?”
The Dragon King said, “I’ve searched for so many years, but I haven’t been able to find any trace of the Witch God Cult, and now that the Nine Thousand Years has only given us three days, I’m afraid that it will be difficult to find the murderers.”
“That’s not necessarily true.”Ye Qiu smiled.
The Dragon King glanced at Ye Qiu and asked, “You have a solution?”
“Hmm.”Ye Qiu nodded.
Zhao Yun asked curiously, “What method?”
“Don’t worry about what method, in short, as long as the murderer is still in Jiangzhou, I can definitely find him.”
After Ye Qiu finished speaking, his hands quietly made a seal and his mouth silently recited the incantation of the tracking talisman, and soon, a wisp of black Qi surfaced again.
“Go!”
With a soft shout from Ye Qiu, the black Qi floated into the lift.
“Go!”
Ye Qiu led the Dragon King and the Military God into the lift and arrived at the hotel lobby, then the wisp of black Qi floated around the hotel lobby before going straight out of the hotel.
Ye Qiu followed the wisp of black Qi closely and turned around in the street, and finally, walked into a secluded alley.
This alley was curved, deep and narrow, the blue stone slabs on the ground were mottled, and not a single person could be seen, it was very cold and quiet.
“You guys be careful, I have a premonition that we are now very close to the murderer.”Ye Qiu reminded.
The Dragon King was instantly pumped up, his eyes constantly sweeping around.
Zhao Yun also reached behind his waist with one hand and gripped his gun.
Ye Qiu followed the wisp of black Qi all the way deeper into the alley, and eventually, the wisp landed at the entrance of an old courtyard.
“This is the place.”
Ye Qiu stopped and pointed his finger at the gate of the courtyard.
The Dragon King and Zhao Yun looked up and saw a dark mansion door, which was closed at the moment, not knowing what was going on inside.
“Little Ye, the murderer is inside?”Dragon King asked in a low voice.
“I don’t know.”Ye Qiu wasn’t sure if the murderer was inside, and followed with, “Even if the murderer isn’t inside, there must be clues to the murderer inside.”
“Zhao Yun, go knock on the door.”The Dragon King urged, “Be careful.”
Zhao Yun nodded slightly and slowly walked to the front door, raising his hand to knock.
“Knock knock knock!”
After knocking for a while, with no response at all, Zhao Yun then shouted again, “Excuse me, is anyone home?”
After continuously shouting several times, there was no response.
Zhao Yun looked back at Ye Qiu and asked, “What to do?”
“What else can we do, we can only break down the door.”
“Bang!”
Ye Qiu kicked the door open, and immediately, a strong stench hit his face, making people retch.
“Go in and take a look.”Ye Qiu covered his nose and took the lead to walk into the house.
Zhao Yun and Dragon King followed closely behind.
The living room was a mess, with some mouldy rice on the table, which was crawling with flies, very disgusting.
The floor was littered with beer bottles and melon shells.
It was obvious that people had lived here before, and there was more than one person living here.
Ye Qiu passed a look to the Dragon King and Zhao Yun, then the three of them split up and searched inside the house.
“Dragon King, Ye Qiu, come over here and look.”Suddenly, Zhao Yun’s voice came out from inside a room.
Ye Qiu and the Dragon King immediately rushed in.
Entering the door, the first thing that caught their eyes was an ancient incense burner made of copper, and then, they saw that behind the incense burner, leaning against the wall, a wooden plaque was placed.
There was not a single word on the wooden plaque.
Ye Qiu quickly got a bowl of water from the kitchen and splashed it on the wooden plaque, and before long, a serpentine pattern slowly appeared on the wooden plaque, which was the totem of the Witch God Sect.
Below the totem, there were four small words:
Jiangzhou Branch Church!
“I didn’t expect that the Jiangzhou Branch of the Witch God Cult would be here.”Ye Qiu was a bit surprised.
“Now that the people have run away, there’s no use in finding their branch hall, damn it.”Zhao Yun cursed.
The Dragon King also sighed, “It was so hard to find information about the Witch God Cult, but I didn’t expect it to be broken again, we came too late.”
“It’s fine, they can’t get away.”
Ye Qiu had just finished speaking when he suddenly heard a voice coming from the doorway, “Knock knock-“
