Why hadn't the talisman activated on time this time?
Fu Qian walked down the street, pondering the question.
It was almost certain now that Geng Yue had died at her husband's hands.
First, the talisman made up of intricate patterns was distinctive. Lu Xing undoubtedly had the ability to create it, and plenty of motive as well.
Besides him, it was hard to imagine anyone having the chance to put something so complicated on the victim's neck.
However, this discovery left Fu Qian somewhat puzzled.
He had never thought Lu Xing was Ill Omen, but it also didn't make sense that Lu Xing's original pattern of killing had changed as soon as he appeared this time.
There had to be some connection between Lu Xing and Ill Omen. He just couldn't determine what it was yet.
But that wasn't a problem. If he couldn't figure it out, he could just ask.
Fu Qian had originally planned to go straight to Huang Yuanchang, but this small change made him alter his plans at the last minute.
Lu Xing should still be at home.
Following the address he remembered, Fu Qian found Lu and Geng's love nest without much trouble.
He rang the doorbell, and the door quickly opened from the inside.
A thin-faced young man who looked to be under thirty stood behind the door, frowning at Fu Qian.
"Who are you looking for?"
This was probably the protagonist of that angsty romance.
He was indeed a Transcendent. Although the man had used some method to conceal most of his aura, a trace of it still gave him away.
Considering his current situation, he probably wouldn't willingly answer any questions. So why not...
"Is this Lu Xing's home?"
Despite the wary gaze fixed on him, Fu Qian remained completely at ease.
