Chapter 987: Reunion with Old Friends

Even though he didn’t know Sun Xun’s objective, Zu An didn’t want the Devil Sect to be ilei or Yun Jianyue, they were both his good friends As such, he said, “Sir Minister, please don’t be in such a rush to co here It ht not have been the Devil Sect who did this”

Gao Ying and Pei You were stunned The blame was deflected onto the Devil Sect; why the heck are you adding s? Sun Xun was also confused He didn’t knohat Zu An’s motive was

Zu An said, “Based on our talk, it see Could they have escaped during the chaos?”

Sun Xun shook his head “That is ih, and uards were taken out in one hit Those people would not be able to escape Furthermore, I sent my men out for several dozen li, and we found no traces of anyone fleeing”

Zu An continued, “Then could it be that they colluded with the enemy, then left with the enemy after the matter?”

“That is also impossible” Sun Xun immediately refuted that “They were all reliable people ere carefully selected from the Xun clan Furthermore, their families are still in the city, so no one would take the risk of doing son anyone asn’t loyal and devoted to his son’s side Furthere, how could so many people rebel at the same tiave the corpses on the ground a look and said, “Those people were also killed, and their corpses were taken by the killer”

“What is Sir Zu i?” Sun Xun was surprised Now, he suddenly didn’t feel that Zu An was the killer either After all, he had only acted against hier If they really could find the real killer, what did a bit of personal grudge count for?

Zu An said, “The killer could clearly choose to leave on his own after doing the deed, yet he wasted the effort of bringing away all of those soldiers’ corpses That means he had a reason that forced hi and Pei You had been sucked in now

Zu An gave the two of the characters really were doing their part well! He explained, “I gave their corpses a look earlier; they were almost all killed in one strike That’s why there was no need for the killer to deal with the the other corpses with him, which means his identity could be discerned fro his cultivation techniques could be discerned from those people’s bodies?” Sun Xun wasn’t stupid He quickly reacted to what Zu An was saying

“Indeed” Zu An pointed at Yang Long “According to what you told me, he was a seventh ranked expert However, his spear was snapped from the front That her However, I noticed that he didn’t die fro killed; rather, he struck his own skull to end his own life”

“Why would he do that?” That was also what Sun Xun had been confused about However, he hadn’t had the time to think about it in detail before

Zu An explained, “It’s because he kneas dead for sure If he didn’t end his own life, it would only lead toThatfro afterward That killer definitely didn’t have the time to torture him, so there must’ve been another reason why he had to end his own life Sir Sun’s cultivation is profound; do you have any ideas?”

Sun Xun’s eyes narrowed Hetortured, he had to have been so scared that he would rather be dead than alive Looking at their situation, the killer didn’t bring poison Then…”

He suddenly thought of so He said quietly, “There are some sinister cultivators in theaway the cultivations or souls of others to increase their own cultivation If Yang Long killed hiht have been to avoid such a result However, if the other party needed a soul, it would have been useless even if he ended his own life…”

He quickly looked at his subordinates after saying that He asked if there were any siet’s cultivation was high, at least above the eighth rank, and he could absorb the cultivation of others There weren’t h, one subordinate said, “There’s a well known evildoer called Thick-Browed Daoist who appeared in Yi Cohed when he heard that name The reason he hadn’t said it himself was because people tended to believe the conclusions they reached theh, Sun Xun quickly said, “Send someone over to immediately ask whether Thick-Browed Daoist joined in the auction today His brows are too distinctive One can easily notice them even if he wears a mask”

He had heard about Thick-Browed Daoist hiht to hi to skin the er

“Understood!” The subordinate quickly got on a horse and left
