C1099 The Last One
On the east side of the Bedlam Lands, in a house.
This was originally the territory of the Desert Storm, but now, it had been destroyed. Therefore, most of the people who originally lived here had already moved away. The scandal of the Desert Storm had been exposed. In a short period of time, the entire chaotic land was in a state of panic. No one was willing to associate themselves with the Desert Storm anymore.
A silver door of light appeared. Yuh Qingcheng, Yinling and the rest walked out from it.
"This divine ability of yours is really convenient. With it, you won't even need a mount anymore." Yang Xuan watched Yinling put away the door of light and said enviously.
Yinling did not answer but looked at a house not far away.
The person who lived here was Wangfu's trusted aide. He had been by Wangfu's side for ten years. He knew a lot about Wangfu and might be able to get some information from him.
Yang Xuan frowned and said, "Wangfu has already left. The people who live here should have left as well."
No matter what, everyone had to go and take a look. After all, Yinling only had one clue. If they gave up just like that, it would take a lot of effort to find another clue.
The four of them came to the hut and pushed the door open.
But as soon as the door was opened, there was a strong smell of blood coming from inside. Yinling's face immediately became ugly. Something must have happened here.
Sure enough, when everyone walked into the room, they saw a terrifying scene.
On the wall that they were facing right after entering the room, a person was standing there. His eyes were wide open as he looked in the direction of the door. Under his feet... There was a large pool of blood. The blood had already dried up. It was a dark red color.
Yinling came to the person's side and carefully examined him. There was a dagger in the man's throat and heart respectively. There were also four swords that nailed his four limbs to the wall.
Such a terrifying way of dying, even Yang Xuan couldn't help but shiver.
"Is there still hope?" Yang Xuan asked.
Yinling shook her head and said, "He should have died two hours ago. His body did not harden. But his heart and trachea were cut by a dagger. He can't be more dead. "
A thought suddenly flashed across Yang Xuan's mind and he said, "Could it be that Wangfu wants to silence him?"
Yinling's face was so gloomy that water could be squeezed out. She had the same thought as Yang Xuan.
Following that, the three of them followed Yinling's lead and found the other people Yinling knew who had worked under Wangfu.
But without exception, these people had all been killed first.
"It seems that there is indeed someone who wants to silence them." Yinling's face was very gloomy as she gritted her teeth and said. The way these people died was almost the same, which meant that they were all killed by the same person. And the time of their deaths was also very close, it was two hours ago. However, before they died, they did not resist at all. Other than the dagger and the sword nailed to their limbs, there were no other injuries.
If nothing unexpected happened, the person who attacked them was very familiar with them. That was why they didn't resist at all before attacking. Moreover, that person was very powerful and could kill him before the other party could react.
"This is what Wangfu did." Yinling said with certainty. But she also showed a puzzled expression. These people were killed two hours ago. At that time, they were still searching for clues in Anye Tavern. So it was very likely that Wangfu saw Yinling and the others finding Anye Tavern, so he came to attack them.
But those clues in the tavern were most likely left behind by Wangfu himself. Then what was his purpose for doing this?
Yang Xuan felt that he had fallen into a dead end. He could not figure out what was going on no matter how hard he tried.
"There's still one last person. If he dies, I'm afraid I'll have to start from scratch." Yinling looked a little depressed because all the information that she had collected over ten years had suddenly become useless.
Yang Xuan suddenly felt guilty and said to Yinling, "That, I am really sorry."
"Why are you apologizing to me?"
"It's all because of me that the news about the Desert Storm was spread out. That's why we were alerted."
"No, it has nothing to do with you." Yinling suddenly laughed and said, "I said that before because I was teasing you. If the information I gathered was enough to find out the truth, then more than ten years would be enough for me to find out. But the more I know, the more mysteries appear in front of me. It just so happens that you appeared at this moment, so I handed this matter over to you. Otherwise, why do you think I trusted a brat?"
" Huh? " Only then did Yang Xuan react, and his face was filled with surprise.2
He thought for a while and suddenly asked in puzzlement, "By the way, who are you, and what is your relationship with my father? Why are you willing to help me?"
Yang Xuan asked in puzzlement. Since the first time he saw Yinling in Wizard Country, she had been secretly helping him.
"Hehe, of course there is a reason." Yinling revealed a playful smile and said, "But I can't tell you the reason now because your strength is too weak."
"Sigh." Yang Xuan heard this and immediately sighed. Yang Wuqi had told him the same thing before. His strength was too weak. If he wanted to meet Yang Wuqi, he could only continue to increase his strength.
However, Yinling did not have any intention of making things difficult for him. She just said to Yang Xuan, "Alright, don't think about it anymore. Your talent is already very good. I'm afraid it won't take long. Then you can find out the truth from my mouth."
She paused and continued: "But the most important thing right now is to figure out what that so-called Tianma is. There is one person among the people I know that hasn't been seen yet, let's hurry up and see "
Yinling said and opened the door of light again. But from her expression, she did not hold much hope for this.
But this time, when the four of them came out of the spatial door, the scene in front of them made them both surprised and happy.
In the room, two men were discussing something. One was tall and the other was short. Suddenly, the short man kicked the tall man in the abdomen. The tall man flew backwards and crashed into the wall. The short man took out four long swords out of thin air and used the Spiritual Force to control the swords. He stabbed the swords into his four limbs.
Then, he took out two more daggers and shook his wrist. One of the daggers stabbed into the tall man's heart. But just as he was about to stab the second dagger into the man's throat, Yang Xuan hurriedly shouted, "Who is it? Stop right there."
The men's bodies trembled when they heard this. They didn't even turn their heads around. They dropped the dagger in their hands and jumped out of the window.
