C19 Cultivation
If it was a different possibility, the direction they were looking for would also be very different. This was related to whether the mastermind they were looking for was a professional summoner array or an amateur. No matter which possibility, they had their own advantages and disadvantages.
If the mastermind was weak and could only summon a portion of the black gas, then the range of the people they needed to investigate would be very wide, which would require a lot of energy. However, there was one benefit to this, which was that the mastermind's skill was limited, so they could deal with it easily. However, if the mastermind could only summon a simple wisp of black gas on purpose, then the summoner's ability would be very high.
Both Liu Zichen and Old Xu were silent for a moment. Their hearts were trying to assess what kind of preparations they might have to make, but Zhao Yan obviously had to face this kind of situation frequently, so he said resolutely, "Since we can't be sure now, I think we should still make preparations. No matter what the situation is, we have to face it."
Liu Zichen and Old Xu slowly nodded their heads. The three of them had reached a preliminary agreement on the direction and plan for the next investigation.
Now that the direction had been confirmed, Zhao Yan immediately ordered his subordinates to gather some preliminary information and see if any of the forces in the group had the ability to summon such supernatural power. Liu Zichen and Old Xu were very confident, but after Zhao Yan instructed his men to go out and execute, they sat down, preoccupied with other matters.
"What is it? Do you have no confidence in investigating the inside members of Genjia Group? " Liu Zichen sat beside Zhao Yan and asked in a low voice.
Zhao Yan slowly shook his head and said somewhat helplessly, "On the surface, this kind of thing, it seems like no one has ever come into contact with these things. But in fact, I know that every clan is actively involved with these dark things, and if we investigate deeply, it is very possible that everyone has actually done these things. Then in the end, it is very possible that everyone has their suspicions."
He pondered for a moment and found that there was no good way to solve this problem. Suddenly, he recalled that every force that Zhao Yan mentioned was in contact with this kind of thing, and he could understand that the Hu Family was also doing the same thing. But the problem was, what did the Hu Family know?
He had a faint feeling that these things were not just a simple murder, but also some of the various battles that were going on behind these factions. Now that he had been involved in this, it was probably impossible for him to pull himself away from it. He could only take a deep breath and wait for the result of Zhao Yan's investigation.
After two days without any news, Old Xu was getting impatient and wanted to go back. He finally agreed to go to the bar outside and have a few drinks, Zhao Yan went out to meet up with the various staff reporting from time to time, but he did not have any useful information, while Hu Qian never showed up.
Liu Zichen had been waiting for Wan'er to contact him earlier, but after waiting for two times, there was still no reaction. He even started to suspect that he was hallucinating during the conversation with Wan'er, and then one night, he lay awake in his bed, murmuring softly, "Wan'er, if you really are not my hallucination, then come out and say something, even if it's just a creak. Let me know that I'm not crazy."
Wan-Er's angry voice sounded in his ears after a while.
"I really admire you, there's one thing I have to say to you, once I've recovered my invisible soul energy, I will naturally take the initiative to contact you. But you, the endless muttering, can only let me come out ahead of time, causing me to not have enough strength to recover."
Instead, he stood up and looked towards her voice, but did not discover anything. However, he still said, "It's too boring, knowing that there's an existence like you here, I feel very anxious. If you still want to recover your strength, first teach me something, and let me practice something first. This way, I'll be busy, wouldn't you have to be quiet?"
Wan-Er sneered and said, "You thought about it, but aren't you investigating that murder case?" Why would you still have the leisure to practice other cultivation techniques? "
Liu Zichen stared blankly, then subconsciously replied, "How did you know I was investigating the Hu family's murder case?" The moment he said that, Liu Zichen regretted it. He knew that Wan'er would make fun of him again on this matter.
And then Wan-Er said, "Of course I know. It's not like I can't hear you. I just don't want to know. I have other things to do. You don't need to ask. You don't understand."
Not only is there no way to deal with her, there is also something I can ask of her, so I can only pretend that I didn't hear it, brazenly continuing to ask, "Right now, the Hu Family's murder case has no leads, I was just waiting for the results of the investigation, wasn't I? It just so happens that when I'm bored, you can teach me the basics of self-defense. In the future, if we say anything more, I won't be clueless, right? "
"You make some sense, but if you think about it carefully, it's completely different." She stayed silent for a while and then continued, "You helped him investigate the murder case. You didn't actively look for any suspicious points, but you hid in other people's houses, ate their stuff, and trained by yourself. There is actually someone like you in this world."
"Uh, about this, isn't there no clues right now? If I go out myself, I won't have any good clues to follow. I can only wait for the people they send out to slowly investigate. " Liu Zichen felt that he could not be considered lazy in this matter or sincerely want to take advantage of the Hu family. Moreover, he felt that there was nothing that could be taken advantage of, it was just that he lived here and ate a few delicious meals.
"No clues?" Is destruction something anyone can summon? In the three realms of the gods and devils, there are only a few people who can break through the boundaries. If you want to investigate, that's as easy as reaching out with your hand … " Wan-Er seemed to be angry and she spoke with excitement. However, when she was halfway through, she suddenly stopped. It was as if she realized that she had said something wrong.
However, Liu Zichen didn't hear any important news from Wan-Er's words. From the first sentence, his mind stopped moving, and he didn't care about what Wan-Er meant by that. He thought for a while and said to himself, "Destruction is the black air? Not just anyone? So just focus the investigation on who can summon destruction? But I've never heard of such things as destruction. Can anyone else have heard of it? And what special materials would be needed to summon a destructive spell formation? If you have extremely special materials, you can quickly lock onto the target as long as you follow the materials and purchase them. "
Liu Zichen's original intention was for Wan'er to tell him about the summoning ceremony and the materials needed for the destruction, then he would ask Zhao Yan to investigate who was preparing this kind of array and materials. However, he didn't expect Wan'er to turn silent and not reply at all.
"Hey, you stopped talking after a few sentences. Tell me, what is the material needed to summon that Destruction?" Liu Zichen asked Wan'er again.
"How would I know that much? Don't bother me. If you want to practice some kind of cultivation method, I will pass you some offensive and defensive spell formations. I will teach you everything, so don't disturb me while I recover my soul force." Wan-Er seemed to be angry with him, and she said in a flustered manner. The moment she said those words, Liu Zichen felt that something strange had appeared in his head. Some of the words and incantations, some of the patterns, they all seemed to have been inserted into his brain in one breath.
A large amount of information was poured into his head. Liu Zichen suddenly felt a splitting headache, as if someone had used a hammer to cut open his head, and then poured lead water into it. He couldn't help but scream out loud.
"Humph!" I've already told you what I should tell you. Go and look for yourself in your mind. In the future, don't bother me anymore with recovering my soul force. Wan-Er seemed to be annoyed. She said something coldly and then disappeared.
Liu Zichen wanted to curse a few times, but he felt a splitting headache coming on. He was not in the mood to curse at her, so he just couldn't hold it in. After a few more minutes, he felt the pain lessen a lot.
After taking a few long breaths, Liu Zichen swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He had already scolded Wan'er in his heart, but he did not dare to open his mouth to curse, afraid that she would come out and find trouble with him after hearing his words. He thought back to the pain in his head, and even felt a lingering fear.
But very quickly, Liu Zichen's attention was attracted by the endless chants and arrays in his mind. The abundance of the chants and arrays shocked him, but the only pity was that the chants and arrays that were stuffed inside were just too numerous, and it would not be easy for him to find the chants and arrays suitable for his current cultivation level.
