"What on earth happened? Why did Ice Emperor Douluo and his men leave before the battle over there was over?"
"I don't know, but since the Royal Knights came to find them, I think something big happened in Tiandou City, otherwise Ice Emperor Douluo and his men wouldn't be in such a hurry."
While the spectators were discussing,
Qian Xunji, Jinzhong, Yinchui, Chenxin and the other four Titled Douluos who were watching the battle were also curious.
They all guessed that something must have happened in Tiandou City.
Chen Xin looked at Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen who were still fighting, and then looked in the direction of Tiandou City. Although he wanted to continue watching, he chose to follow them out of concern for Ning Fengzhi's safety.
The distance of three hundred miles was nothing to Lin Hanye's Ice Dragon, but in order to take care of those Tiandou soldiers, he still slowed down a lot, and deliberately waited for Sword Douluo.
After a moment, Swod Douluo followed up and asked hurriedly, "President Lin, what happened?"
Lin Hanye did not hide it, and looked heartbroken, "Two and a half hours ago, His Majesty was assassinated in the palace."
"How is this possible?" Sword Douluo was very surprised, because his good friend Gu Rong was also in the palace.
How could someone assassinate Emperor Xue Ye in front of Gu Rong?
Logically speaking, even Guang Ling Douluo, who is the best assassin in the Spirit Hall, can't do it.
Gu Rong may not be Guang Ling's opponent, but he can still hold him back for a while and give Xue Ye a chance to escape.
"Your Majesty Sword Douluo, this is true. I was next to him at the time and saw it with my own eyes." Knight Captain said.
"Do you know who the assassin is? And is our sect master safe and sound?" Jian Douluo asked.
Hearing this, he was silent for a while and said, "Sect Master Ning is fine. As for the assassin." He couldn't say the rest.
Sword Douluo and Huang Yueyao also saw that the other party had something to hide. Lin Hanye said, "Let's talk slowly on the way. There is no time to lose. Let's go over and take a look. Hurry up." After that, Lin Hanye increased his speed, and Sword n Douluo followed closely.
Half an hour later, the group landed in the Tiandou Palace.
"President Lin, and His Majesty Dugu, you have to make the decision for my Tiandou Royal Family. Ning Fengzhi was dissatisfied with my brother's greater reliance on the Soul Master Guild, so he instigated Gu Rong to assassinate him, and he refused to admit it afterwards."
As soon as he landed, Xue Xing came up to him as if he had seen a savior, with snot and tears falling all over the floor, and he almost knelt down.
"What did you say?" Seeing that Xue Xing actually wanted to frame him and Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong was instantly angry, but after seeing Lin Hanye on the side, his tone instantly weakened a lot. Check latest chapters at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
Ning Fengzhi had already looked gloomy, but he dared not speak, because at the moment when Lin Hanye came back, it didn't matter whether Xue Ye was harmed by them.
From now on, their fate is in Lin Hanye's hands.
"Prince Xue Xing, I mourn for you. Captain has already told us the details of what happened. Let us check the body of His Majesty first."
Lin Hanye said, looking at Dugu Bo, "Elder Dugu, go check whether His Majesty has been poisoned."
"Leave it to me." After a moment, Dugu Bo shook his head and talked nonsense seriously, "I dare not say that I am the best in the world in the way of poison, but no matter how sophisticated the poisoning method is, it will never be hidden from me. I just checked the body of His Majesty, and there was no sign of poisoning.
It didn't look like a sudden death, but more like a mental attack. It is enough to kill a person silently and leave no wound afterwards. Even the president finds it difficult to achieve this level of mental power."
"It seems that he died from a pure mental attack skill." Lin Hanye pretended to step forward to check, turned to look at Gu Rong, and asked with an iron-faced and impartial look, "Bone Douluo, can you describe the specific situation at that time?"
"This is what happened."
Gu Rong did not dare to hide anything and immediately told the story.
"In other words, you found the assassin in the bedroom after His Majesty was hit?"
Lin Hanye continued to ask.
Gu Rong was stunned. Although he didn't know what the other party was trying to say, he still answered honestly.
"Sword Douluo, His Majesty's bedroom is closed on all sides. There is only one exit, the main door, and all the windows are closed. Let me ask you, if you were facing the situation just now, if you killed someone, could you escape Gu Rong's search in such a short time and leave quietly?"
Lin Hanye looked at Gu Rong.
Although Sword Douluo didn't believe that Gu Rong would do such a stupid thing, he still didn't say anything against his will. "I can't do it. Not only me, but even you, President Lin, the Great Priest of the Spirit Hall, and Clear Sky Douluo, the three most powerful Titled Douluos in the world, can't do it."
Then, he added, "But as far as I know, Old Bone, he doesn't have a head soul bone, let alone the ability to launch a mental attack."
"Who knows if this guy secretly absorbed a head soul bone without telling you, and then secretly harmed Your Majesty, after all, this guy has a criminal record."
"Why, do you want me to open my head and show you if I have a head soul bone?"
Gu Rong had never suffered such humiliation before, and he was furious.
"Bone Douluo, we are just discussing the matter, don't be impulsive." Lin Hanye stood in front of Xue Xing.
"President Lin is right. If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door."
With a backer, Xue Xing became more arrogant. He didn't know whether Xue Ye was harmed by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but even if it wasn't them,
he would have to treat it as them. Otherwise, after this incident, as the biggest beneficiary, he would become the suspect.
By then, let alone wanting to sit on the throne, he would be condemned by thousands of people.
"You" Gu Rong was so angry that his eyes were red and he was panting like a cow. He subconsciously wanted to attack, but was stopped by Ning Fengzhi, who asked, "President Lin, how can I and Uncle Gu clear my suspicion?"
Lin Hanye said, "Master Ning, don't say that I am unkind, but this matter is related to the death of His Majesty. Considering our previous friendship, how about this. Before clearing the suspicion, you and Gu Douluo will stay in the palace for the time being and don't go anywhere. When he finds the real murderer one day, I will clear your name."
"What, you want to imprison us?"
Hearing this, Gu Rong was angry again. Protecting Ning Fengzhi in front of him, nine soul rings, two yellow, two purple and five black, rose from his feet, ready to attack, even Ning Fengzhi couldn't persuade him.
At the critical moment, Sword Douluo grabbed his arm and burst out nine soul rings of the same color to restrain him, "Old bone, don't be impulsive."
