"Okay, no problem."
Ning Fengzhi slightly. As someone from the organizing committee of the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition Preliminary Rounds, it was no problem for him to suddenly arrange for a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to join the Heaven Dou Second Team.
Tang San then asked, "Uncle Ning, there's one more thing I'd like to ask you. How did Xue Luochuan, the First Prince of Heaven Dou, suddenly pass away?"
Intelligent people don't waste words in conversations. Ning Fengzhi immediately told Tang San that Xue Luochuan had died suddenly, and the true cause of death had not yet been determined.
"Mistress, do you suspect there's something wrong with Xue Luochuan's death?"
Tang San nodded. "That's right, Uncle Ning. Xue Luochuan was Soul Master, and the possibility of Soul Master Soul Master suddenly is extremely low. I suspect that Xue Luochuan was most likely murdered. Moreover, the fact that he was able to bypass the security checks of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and die suddenly without being noticed by outsiders suggests that he was most likely poisoned."
Ning Fengzhi's face showed admiration, "Not bad, Xiao San, you are indeed clever. Prince Xue Xing examined Xue Luochuan's body and indeed, a special kind of deadly poison was extracted from Xue Luochuan's body, but the source of this poison and the murderer are still completely unknown."
Tang San said, "Uncle Ning, if we can't find the murderer, then we can only look for the person who could have benefited the most from the Crown Prince's death, and start by finding out how the poisoner was able to bypass the layers of checks by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."
"The person who would benefit the most is undoubtedly Xue Hailuo, who will succeed to the position of Crown Prince. If Xue Hailuo is the poisoner, it is not impossible for him, as the Third Prince of Heaven Dou, to have deceived the Heaven Dou Imperial Family through layers of investigation."
"But given that it was poison, and the fact that the Heaven Dou Imperial Family couldn't detect it, it's impossible for Xue Hailuo to do it alone. There must be someone behind him helping him. I suspect that the mastermind behind all this is the Spirit Hall."
Ning Fengzhi somewhat surprised, not expecting Tang San to pin the suspicion on the Spirit Hall. He asked, "Little San, why do you think the Spirit Hall is the mastermind?"
Tang San smiled slightly, "Because of poison, Uncle Ning. The Spirit Hall controls Poison Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, two Titled Douluo with extremely profound attainments in the use of poison, and they have also recruited the Breaking Clan. According to my uncle, the Breaking Clan's research on poison is also quite deep, possibly even surpassing that of Poison Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo."
"Many of the Breaking Clan's records describe extremely poisonous herbs, the sheer intensity of which is enough to kill even a Soul Douluo- level expert with just the scent of their volatile substances. That's why the Breaking Clan has always been searching for the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Grade Herb, the Fragrant Silky Orchid."
"The greatest benefit of the Aromatic Silk Beauty is that its floral fragrance can neutralize any toxins."
Ning Fengzhi said, "Xiao San, you've overlooked one point in your suspicions about the Spirit Hall. What benefits does the Spirit Hall gain from assisting Xue Hailuo in ascending the throne? Once Xue Hailuo becomes the Emperor of Heaven Dou and commands a million-strong army, all his promises to the Spirit Hall will become empty words."
"Even if the Spirit Hall produces evidence that Xue Hailuo killed his brother for the throne, as long as Xue Hailuo denies it, given his exceptional cultivation talent and status as the third prince of Heaven Dou, with impeccable lineage, even if the ministers of Heaven Dou have some doubts, no one will want to dethrone Xue Hailuo."
For the ministers loyal to the Heaven Dou Empire, the fact that the Heaven Dou Empire had a gifted and ruthless emperor was a blessing in the Heaven Dou Empire.
The imperial family is the most ruthless place. What is killing one's own brother for the throne? In ordinary families, it is common for brothers to fight to the death for the inheritance. If murder were not a crime, who knows how many more struggles for the crown prince would occur?
"You're right, Uncle Ning. Therefore, I'm considering that Xue Hailuo may have been replaced, and that Xue Hailuo isn't the real Xue Hailuo."
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's surprised and furrowed brows, Tang San continued, "Uncle Ning, you don't know, the Spirit Hall's Angel God passed down six Soul Bones. Those six Soul Bones are exactly the Soul Bone for the six parts of Soul Master, and each one has an age of 99,999 years. Among them, the Angel Head Bone has a Soul Skill called Comprehensive Disguise."
"Comprehensive Disguise; it allows Soul Master to freely adjust their physique. Even a man can disguise himself as a woman by using this Soul Bone's Soul Bone Skill. Only the face cannot be disguised; a Human Skin Mask is required."
"Soul Bone with such Soul Skill? I've never heard of it before. Little San, can this Soul Bone even disguise Martial Soul?"
Ning Fengzhi shocked, astonished by the Soul Bone Skill of that Angel Head Bone. That Soul Bone Skill was simply born for assassination. Combined with the Human Skin Mask, it could disguise one's identity at will. If the Spirit Hall used this Soul Bone for assassination operations, the threat to the major forces would be unimaginable.
"Yes, but like disguising one's physical form, disguising one's Martial Soul has some limitations. It can only disguise Martial Soul that have a certain resemblance to those of Six-Winged Angel."
A glint flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes, and he asked again, "Third Brother, did your Great-Grandfather also learn about this Soul Bone Skill from Qian Daoliu?"
Logically speaking, Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen are both rivals and friends, and they often spar. As opponents, it would be incredibly foolish for Qian Daoliu to proactively reveal his Soul Skill to the other, allowing the other to prepare in advance. He doesn't think Qian Daoliu is that stupid, after all, the actions, methods, and meticulous thinking Qian Daoliu displayed in Destruction the Clear Sky Sect are completely mismatched.
Tang San said, "My teacher told me."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "I understand. I will investigate whether Xue Hailuo was switched. Xiao San, Brother Tang Xiao, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master you need will be sent to you tomorrow. Xiao San, you've already had a match today, go back and rest. If it's on your way, I can give you a ride."
"No need, Uncle Ning, I'm already very grateful for your help."
After saying that, Tang San shifted his position, bringing Oscar into Ning Fengzhi's line of sight.
Oscar, understanding Tang San's meaning, immediately said, "Sect Master Ning, my name is Oscar, I am a level 36 Soul Elder, my Martial Soul is Sausage, I am sixteen years old this year, and like you, I am Support System Soul Master."
"I have always admired you. I wonder if I will have the honor of joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect after graduation?"
Ning Fengzhi was overjoyed. How could he refuse such an outstanding Food-type Soul Master who had come to his doorstep? At sixteen years old and level thirty-six, his talent was truly astonishing among Support System Soul Master. If his daughter had not taken Immortal Grade Herb, her cultivation speed probably could not have matched that of this young man.
"We couldn't be happier. What our sect needs most is someone like you, young brother. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's doors are always open to you."
