Ling Han considered the matter for a moment, then asked, “You suspect that Qing Yue had not died naturally?”

“Qing Yue’s talent in martial arts exceeded even mine and Duan Zheng Zhi’s, so how could she have possibly died from illness?” Guang Yuan shook his head immediately. “I am currently in the ninth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, and Duan Zheng Zhi has even broken through to the Spiritual Pedestal Tier; then no matter what, Qing Yue would at least have been in the Spiritual Ocean Tier three years ago. How could a martial artist in the Spiritual Ocean Tier fall ill and die from illness?”

Indeed, once a martial artist had broken through to the Element Gathering Tier, they would fall ill only in very rare circ.u.mstances. With Origin Power to protect their bodies, they would not be affected by ordinary ailments. Unless they were poisoned or injured by another, they would definitely live healthily all the way until they died of old age.

“Since you have suspicions, why don’t you go and get to the bottom of the matter?” Ling Han asked.

“I fear remembering her when I see things related to her, and am afraid that the long suppressed old affections would emerge again,” Guang Yuan said, shaking his head.

Ling Han laughed loudly, and asked, “How are you any better than that if you continue like this? Where does that Duan Zheng Zhi live now?”

“En, he settled here seven years ago, and has developed quite well since. The Duan Clan can be considered a considerably powerful party in the Sea Breeze City, with many elites of the Spiritual Ocean Tier under their banner,” Guang Yuan said.

This was also one of the reasons why he had not made his way to the Duan Residence. That was because if he made an official visit, he would not be received, and if he sneaked in, with so many elites in the Residence, should he be caught red-handed, how embarra.s.sing would that be in front of his old love rival?

Ling Han broke out into a smile and said, “That’s all right. We’ll go take a look tonight, and conclude one of your preoccupations.”

Guang Yuan thought the matter over and sighed, but did not refuse.

He indeed very much wanted to know how Nong Qing Yue had actually died. Otherwise, it felt as if he had a heavy stone weighing down on his heart. This matter has caused him to be unable to eat well or sleep well, and there were even signs that his cultivation was degrading these days.

After taking a look at all the members of his group, Ling Han entered the Black Tower.

He wanted to study the Thunder Battle Armor closely.

This battle armor looked like it was a vest. It did not have sleeves, and looked like it could only protect one’s torso. It was also made from a material Ling Han could not identify. It was made from multiple silver-colored metal plates woven together with a metallic thread.

Upon close examination, every single metallic plate had a pattern on it. They were all different from each other, and looked a bit like the lettering on the Indestructible Heaven Scroll, but also looked as if they were drawings.

If that was really the case, then the Thunder Battle Armor would have come from a very important background. It was possible that it was not any mere Spirit Tool, but could possibly be a G.o.d Tool that had come from the realm of G.o.ds!

However, this battle armor was extremely severely damaged. There was a hole on the chest part, and when he compared it, it was precisely the spot lying over the right side of the chest, where the heart was. In other words, someone had worn the Thunder Battle Armor yet had his heart pierced with a single strike from his opponent. The wearer had naturally died, whereas the battle armor experienced fundamental damage.

There was now no one capable of reviving the battle armor, but because the material it was forged from was definitely Level Nine or perhaps even Level Ten, it could not be penetrated by any kind of weapon. Thus, should one wear it, it could still be effective as a protective covering, which could be considered of little value when compared to its real worth.

If that hadn’t been the case, how could the Winter Moon Sect possibly use it as a prize? However, it was originally arranged to be won by the Seven Sons of Ao Family, and this was also the result from the hardworking efforts of the Elder of the Ao Clan. Yet, unexpectedly, it had fallen into Ling Han’s grasp in the end.

“Has the tool spirit vanished completely?” Ling Han injected his divine sense into the battle armor, and indeed, there was no sign of life from this Spirit Tool. The tool spirit no longer existed within.

“Nothing to be done if the tool spirit is dead. It’s only that it cannot revive itself anymore.” Ling Han rubbed a hand over the battle armor. “As long as my martial intent is strong enough, I will still be able to actiate this battle armor. Moreover, I heard that there is a Thunder-aligned martial arts technique concealed within, though I don’t know whether it’s true or mere rumor.”

“Let’s see if I can activate it!”

The members of the Winter Moon Sect could not accomplish this feat because even the strongest of the Winter Moon Sect was only in the Spiritual Infant Tier, whereas this battle armor was at least a Level Nine Spirit Tool. But it was a different story for Ling Han. He possessed a sliver of divine sense of the Heaven Tier, plus he was currently in the Black Tower.

He injected his Origin Power into the Thunder Battle Armor, but there was no reaction. Then he poured his divine sense into it, and still there was no reaction.
