…

On the other hand, in the grand hall of Xuan Yin Sect, Qi Heng, Qi Yongqing’s father, was infuriated.

After learning of his son’s demise, he cursed out loud, ordering the other cultivators to immediately investigate the cause of his son’s death.

“Elder Qi, we have no remedy.”

“We of the Xuan Yin Sect are too far from where Saint Heir Qi perished. It’s completely impossible for us to identify the murderer.”

A helpless Golden Core Manager lamented.

“Use the ‘Soul Tracker,’ activate the Sect’s secret technique immediately, and find the killer who took my son’s life,” demanded Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng.

“The ‘Soul Tracker’ has already disappeared.”

“This indicates that the murderer, who killed Saint Heir Qi and others, is also dead.”

“Perhaps they died together with Saint Heir Qi and others.”

The Golden Core Manager had also wanted to investigate the location of the ‘Soul Tracker,’ but regrettably, the ‘Soul Tracker’ had disappeared long ago.

Even if he wanted to use the secret technique, he simply could not achieve it.

“What a joke, how could he die together with my son? That fellow is definitely still alive.”

Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng did not believe in such an absurd thing.

The other party conspired and practically killed his son and the four other Golden Core cultivators at the same time, holding an absolute advantage.

Could it be that such a murderer would just die? Wasn’t this pure nonsense?

Did they really think he was an idiot who couldn’t see through the other party’s ruse?

“Elder Qi, if that’s the case, there’s another possibility.”

“The murderer might have suddenly taken control of Saint Heir Qi and the others, and then found a scapegoat.”

“The scapegoat then killed Saint Heir Qi and the others.”

“Immediately after, the real murderer killed the scapegoat, so the ‘Soul Tracker’ did not fall on the actual murderer.”

The Golden Core Manager offered a reasonable explanation—it was the only way that the murder could have died.

“Yes, that must be the case.”

“The culprit must know about the power of the ‘Soul Tracker.’

“So, he must have made preparations in advance. This is a calculated scheme whose purpose was to kill my son.”

Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng was furious.

Though he has many descendants, it was only Qi Yongqing who truly had potential.

Now that Qi Yongqing had been killed, his rage was palpable.

He absolutely wished he could tear the enemy into pieces.

Unfortunately, even if he was full of rage right now, it would make no difference because he simply couldn’t find where the murderer was.

“Elder Qi, do you know why Saint Heir Qi went to the territory of the Wuji Alliance?”

“If we know the purpose of Saint Heir Qi, we might be able to find the murderer.”

The Golden Core Manager asked.

“I’m not sure, Yongqing never told me.”

Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng shook his head.

Because this was perfectly normal; after all, Qi Yongqing’s objective was to capture the Sky Demon Sect’s Saintess Chu Dieyi alive.

Such a mission was of great significance and couldn’t be easily compromised.

Once the news was leaked, not even his father could protect him.

Apart from the three Golden Core Masters who accompanied him, no one else knew what Qi Yongqing intended to do.

Unless it’s a done deal and he could take the opportunity to promote to Nascent Soul stage.

Otherwise, he would never tell anyone about it.

“That’s troublesome then.”

The Golden Core Manager was helpless; without knowing the purpose of Qi Yongqing’s trip to the Wuji Alliance’s territories, it’s impossible to identify the possible killers.

There was no doubt that the matter had reached a stalemate.

“Yes, some special treasures were left in my son’s storage bag.”

“If the murderer took the storage bag, it might be possible to trace these treasures.”

“And hence find the whereabouts of the murderer.”

Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng immediately thought of a second method.

“I have already thought about this, but it’s not working,” he said.

“Because the distance is too far, it’s absolutely impossible to track.”

“Or perhaps, the other party has already destroyed these treasures.”

The Golden Core Manager was helpless; he believed the murderer covered his tracks perfectly, leaving no traces.

The more it was like this, the more alarmed he became, feeling that the matter was far too complicated.

Such a feat could only be achieved by the Saint Heirs within the sect, and practically nobody else.

This means that this matter was very likely an internal conflict, and Qi Yongqing might have been killed in internal strife.

In fact, this was the tradition of Xuan Yin Sect.

Every generation has nine Saint Heirs, and only one of them could become the next Sect Leader of Xuan Yin Sect.

This was known as the Struggle of the Nine Dragons.

It could be said that the fight in each generation was extremely intense, with countless casualties.

The death of Qi Yongqing signified the commencement of this generation’s struggle for succession among the Saint Heirs.

He was the first one to be eliminated.

“Damned bastard.”

Obviously, Nascent Soul Ancestor Qi Heng also thought of this. Grinding his teeth, his heart was filled with endless anger. He directed his suspicion towards the other eight Saint Heirs.

But he was only suspicious, without any evidence, he could do nothing about it.

Because every one of the other eight Saint Heirs also had a Nascent Soul Ancestor backing them.

Unless he can find undeniable evidence, he cannot take action.

Undoubtedly, because of Zhou Sui’s accidental action, the Xuan Yin Sect fell into internal strife.

A battle was inevitable.

One day later.
