"Zhou Tong said, the man always covered his face with a black scarf and his voice was hoarse and strange. He was obviously disguised,"
"The body shape is ordinary, and the aura is as restrained as an abyss. He can't see through the depth at all, but he can produce such forbidden magic skills. His strength... is probably far beyond our imagination."
Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then spoke with a hint of chill in his tone.
The room fell into dead silence.
The oil lamps and lanterns exploded gently, making a subtle "crackling" sound, which made the atmosphere even more depressing.
A mysterious man who masters magic skills and has a meticulous mind. His strength is terrifying and his level of threat is far beyond that of Zhou Tong who has just started practicing.
Fang Han I felt a chill rising from my tailbone and spreading to all my limbs.
He originally thought that this mission was just to eliminate a villain and solve a public case.
Unexpectedly, he accidentally pulled out forbidden skills such as magic skills, as well as a terrifying black hand hidden behind the scenes.
Now that Zhou Tong is exposed, if the news about the mysterious man's reappearance for the sake of magic power is not known to the Azure Profound Sect, will there be an attack?
"This matter is of great importance and has been dealt with by Non-Self and others."
Fang Han pondered for a moment and said decisively.
"The news must be sent back to the sect immediately!"
"We are in agreement with our junior brother. The reappearance of the magic power is no small matter! I will use the Law Enforcement Hall emergency channel and use the Faith Eagle to send the news back immediately!"
Zhao Gan nodded heavily.
The matter was so important that Zhao Gan did not dare to delay at all, and immediately left in a hurry with Li Ming and Zhang Yuan to prepare for the summons.
The remaining Law Enforcement Hall disciples remained in the room, with even more worried expressions on their faces.
Liu Yun couldn't help but whispered.
"Junior Brother Fang, do you think... is that mysterious man nearby? Are we... going to be in danger?"
Chen Xue also subconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword and scanned the dark night outside the window warily.
Fang Han looked calm, and although he was wary in his heart, he did not panic and said slowly.
"Sister, don't worry too much. If that mysterious man is really here and sees Zhou Tong's defeat, he will either have escaped a long time ago, or he will take action with thunder and will not allow us to interrogate Zhou Tong."
"But just in case, we will escort Zhou Tong back to the sect immediately early tomorrow morning! It is not suitable to stay here for a long time!"
After everyone heard this, they felt a little relieved, but their hearts still felt like a huge stone was weighing on them.
That night, no one slept peacefully inside or outside the Zhou Mansion.
Worried about the mysterious man coming, Fang Han and several Law Enforcement Hall disciples took turns on duty.
The next day, it was dawn.
Fang Han and his group immediately escorted Zhou Tong, who was locked in special shackles and dying, and left Zhou Mansion, who was still in a depressed atmosphere.
As for the treatment of the remaining clan members of the Zhou Mansion, it will be decided by the sect after reporting back to the sect.
After leaving the city gate, the seven Fang Han and Zhao Gan did not dare to delay at all. They chose the official road and placed Zhou Tong in a prepared prison car. They were guarded by two people while the others Guard rushed forward and backward at full speed.
Along the way, there was a roar of wind and cranes, and the vegetation was full of soldiers.
Whenever there are steep mountain roads and deep forests, everyone will be extra vigilant.
Fang Han even pushed <Spirit Nose Technique> to the extreme, sensing all abnormal movements around it.
However, the expected attack never came.
The journey was surprisingly peaceful. Except for the occasional convoy of traveling traders, no suspicious characters appeared.
But this calmness only made the strings in everyone's hearts tighten even more.
Did the mysterious man not know the news yet? Or had he been secretly peeping, waiting for a better opportunity?
Or maybe because they had already sent the news back, they felt that the action was useless and... gave up the action?
All kinds of speculations hang over my mind like a dark cloud.
Three days later, a group of people who had traveled a lot finally saw the majestic outline of Azure Profound Mountain in the distance.
When they stepped through the familiar mountain gate and felt the majestic and peaceful atmosphere in the sect, everyone's hearts that had been hanging finally returned to reality.
"Finally... back."
Zhao Gan breathed a long sigh of relief, with an expression of relief on his face.
Others also wiped the sweat from their foreheads, looking at each other with a feeling of surviving a disaster.
Fang Han raised his head and looked at the top of the Azure Profound Sect mountain with a deep gaze.
Returning to the sect is only temporarily safe. The matter of magic and the whirlpool hidden behind it may have just begun.
Not long after entering the mountain gate, a disciple wearing Law Enforcement Hall costume came quickly and greeted everyone.
"Senior Brother Zhao, Junior Brother Fang Han, all senior brothers and sisters, Elder has been waiting in the side hall of the Law Enforcement Hall, and I have ordered you to go and return your orders as soon as you come back."
Fang Han and Zhao Gan looked at each other, knowing that the urgent letter must have arrived.
"Junior brother, please help me lead the way."
Everyone did not dare to neglect, and escorted Zhou Tong, followed the disciple, and went straight to the Law Enforcement Hall located near the main peak.
Law Enforcement Hall side hall, the atmosphere is solemn.
An old man in green robes with a pale face, lightning-like eyes, and no anger or authority sat at the head. He was none other than Yan Lu, one of the Law Enforcement Hall Elder.
Below them, there were two Deacon sitting with a calm breath.
Fang Han and others entered the temple and paid homage according to the etiquette.
"Disciple Zhao Gan, Fang Han..., see Yan Elder!"
Yan Lu Elder's gaze was like a torch, and he slowly swept over everyone, especially Fang Han. He paused for a moment, and then spoke in a deep voice, with an unquestionable majesty in his voice.
"You sent back a secret letter, saying that Yellow Leaf City Zhou Tong practiced magic, massacred villages and killed people, and there was a mysterious person behind it. Is this true? Please report the details!"
Zhao Gan, as the leading disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall on this trip, took a step forward.
Tell the story of the incident, from receiving the mission, being blocked in the investigation, Fang Han turning back alone to find clues, capturing Zhou Tong, Zhou Clan resisting and being executed, to the final interrogation of the truth about the magic technique, the whole story, clearly reported.
Fang Han occasionally added details.
Yan Lu Elder and the two Deacon listened quietly, their faces becoming more solemn.
After Zhao Gan finished reporting, Yan Lu Elder pondered for a long time and then said slowly.
"You can solve the case this time, capture the murderer, and investigate Devil Palace. You have done a lot of credit."
His eyes turned to Fang Han.
"Fang Han, at the critical moment, you used Tracking Secret Technique to identify the real culprit, broke into the Zhou Mansion alone, fought hard to capture the culprit, and made the greatest contribution."
"After the consensus of the Law Enforcement Hall, you will be rewarded with a thousand points for your contribution as an encouragement."
After that, he took Identity Jade Token from Fang Han and scratched it on a jade inkstone.
The light flickered, and the contribution value on the jade plate increased by 1,000 points.
"Thank you Elder for the reward!"
Fang Han took the jade sign with both hands.
Yan Lu Elder said to Zhao Gan seven people again.
"You and other seven people will assist in the investigation and escort the murderer. Each of you will be rewarded with a contribution worth 300 points."
"Thank you Elder!"
Zhao Gan Seven people responded in unison, with joy on their faces.
Unlike Fang Han, they can get ranking rewards in the hospital and General Ranking rewards. Being able to get 300 contribution points for a mission that lasts more than ten days is already a very good harvest.
After the contribution reward was distributed, Yan Lu Elder waved his hand.
"The sect has its own concerns about the magic power. You don't need to ask any more. This matter is of great importance and is strictly forbidden to be spread to avoid causing panic. Everyone, please go down."
"Disciple, obey!"
Everyone agreed in unison, bowed, and exited the side hall.
Walking out of the Law Enforcement Hall, the warm sunshine shines on the body, dispelling the haze and fatigue of the past few days.
"Junior Brother Fang, thanks to you this time!"
Zhao Gan said sincerely, and the other six people also nodded, their eyes full of gratitude and admiration.
If it weren't for Fang Han, they might still be on the list of thirty-seven people at this moment. Not only would they not be able to complete their mission, but they might also be ignorant of the huge hidden dangers.
"Brothers and sisters, please be polite. This is your job."
Fang Han said lightly, without appearing enthusiastic.
Because of the apology from the seven Zhao Gan people, he did not care about the previous cynicism of the seven people Zhao Gan, but there was no doubt that the seven people Zhao Gan were not people worth making friends with.
The two parties separated at the fork in the road, and Fang Han was walking alone along the bluestone path in the direction of Zi Courtyard.
The 1,000 contribution points reward obtained can only be regarded as a bonus.
Compared with the sect's rewards, the "windfall" of 630,000 taels charged into System Panel is the real big deal.
The rewards of this mission can be said to be beyond imagination.
"Chu Feng... Stealing the chicken but losing the rice."
Fang Han The corner of his mouth raised a cold arc.
Chu Feng used the mission to suppress himself, but instead allowed himself to establish Major Merit and receive generous rewards, which also cost Chu Feng the secret power of the Zhou Clan.
The only pity is that Zhou Tong pointed out that the magic power came from a mysterious person, but did not point to Chu Feng.
This is normal. With Chu Feng's talent and status, it is almost impossible for him to ruin his future by practicing magic skills that are full of hidden dangers.
It is undoubtedly a dream to overthrow Chu Feng, True Disciple who is ranked Prodigy Ranking.
"However, the days are long..."
Fang Han raised his head and looked in the direction of True Transmission Courtyard, his eyes were calm, but with a restrained edge.
True Transmission Courtyard, Chu Feng's Courtyard In the study room.
Sandalwood Incense curled up, but it couldn't dispel the cold depression in the air.
Chu Feng stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his back upright, but the coldness radiating from his whole body made Song Xiang, who had just bowed in, feel his breath suffocated, and a layer of fine cold sweat instantly broke out on his back.
He raised his eyes cautiously and quickly glanced at Chu Feng's profile.
I saw Chu Feng's face sinking like water, and his usually arrogant and sharp eyes were so deep that they were bottomless at this moment.
Obviously, this senior brother True Disciple is in an extremely bad mood.
"Senior... Senior brother, can you call me?"
Song Xiang swallowed, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and asked respectfully with an imperceptible tremor in his voice.
Chu Feng did not look back immediately, but still looked out the window at the dark dusk. After a long time, he slowly spoke in a cold and bone-chilling voice without any emotion:
"Yellow Leaf City Zhou Clan, it's over."
These few simple words were like thunder in Song Xiang's ears.
He trembled all over and raised his head suddenly, his eyes filled with unbelievable horror.
"Senior Brother Chu, Zhou Clan... what happened?"
"The culprit who massacred Yellow Stone Village and killed five Zi Courtyard disciples was Zhou Tong."
Chu Feng slowly turned around, his eyes like two ice picks piercing Song Xiang, and the corners of his mouth raised an extremely cold arc.
"What?!"
Song Xiang As if struck by lightning, he staggered back half a step, his body trembling slightly uncontrollably.
Yellow Leaf City Zhou Clan Zhou Tong is the murderer? How is this possible?!
In order to suppress Fang Han, he tried his best to promote the proposal to assign the investigation task of this case to Fang Han!
The original intention was to hold back Fang Han, consume its energy, and even hope that something unexpected would happen to it during the mission.
Who would have thought that after repeated investigations, the murderer would be found on his own person?
This is a huge irony!
