C9 Luo qingyao

After listening intently for a while, Hong Yang clenched his teeth and ignited the oil lamp. He raised it high up and used the light from the lamp to examine it carefully.

Very quickly, Hong Yang discovered an extremely unremarkable point of light on the screen. And the bright spot was right in front of the window he had been leaning against.

Hong Yang activated his Qi and extended three of his fingers. Under the infusion of his Qi, his fingers became as hard as hooks.

Ka-cha! *

A piece of wood was forcibly dug out from the screen.

Boom! *

Hong Yang exerted a little more force and the wooden block broke into pieces. He opened his palm and gently blew away the wooden piece, and surprisingly, a black and blue silver needle appeared in the middle of his palm.

With just a glance, Hong Yang could tell that this silver needle was poisonous, and this silver needle had even hit a certain someone before.

"At that time, only the only person in the study was the Luo Palace family head s corpse. And after an autopsy, Luo Hua's entire body was uninjured, and there were no traces of blood at all. This poisonous needle is definitely not aimed at Luo Hua. "

"There's only one possibility. The killer was in the study room, and there was another person outside. The killer killed Luo Hua, so the person outside wanted to be the oriole. "

After blowing out the oil lamp, Hong Yang turned around and walked out of the study, standing at the doorway and looking towards the window.

The garden was desolate from the cold. The dead branches and leaves were pressed down by the white snow. As the wind blew past, a thin layer of snowy fog rose into the air.

Hong Yang walked around the garden, but did not find anything, because there were a lot of people who came last night.

Hong Yang laughed silently, and thought: "The killer cultivation is very powerful, and the owner of the concealed weapon is not far from him. Otherwise, it wouldn't have hit the killer. How could there be footprints or something like that? "

"That's not right, this person who uses concealed weapons, might not have a high level of cultivation, and took advantage of when the assassin was distracted to sneak in a sneak attack and win. However, the assassin did not die immediately. The hidden weapon owner knew that he was no match for the assassin, so he had to run away. After that, the assassin also left due to his heavy injuries. "

"If that's the case, then I'm completely wrong."

"If the killers were hired by Xiao Family, then who was the owner of the concealed weapon? If he is on good terms with Luo Family, why would he wait until the death of the Luo Residence before making a move? "

"Could it be that, whether it is the assassin or the owner of the hidden weapon, they have nothing to do with the Xiao family?"

Hong Yang's original line of thought had been completely turned upside down by this new discovery.

Returning back to the study room, Hong Yang studied the white ash on the floor as he thought back to what he saw last night when he entered the study room.

"From the looks of Luo Hua's death, and the angle of his corpse, he should have been kneeling at that time."

Hong Yang extended his hand out and pressed down in the air, pretending to be pressing down on Luo Hua with his palm.

"If that's the case, the assassin should be threatening Luo Hua. Why would a high ranking Earth Origin Stage expert threaten a powerless Luo Hua? There must be some other reason! "

As for his goal, Hong Yang could not think of it.

"Sigh, I'm a clay buddha now, and it's hard for me to protect myself. Why would I need to think about such things? There's nothing in this world that can disturb me."

Hong Yang shook his head and laughed, then sat back on the chair and started to plan how to escape.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a faint sound that seemed to come from the wall of the study room.

After identifying the source of the sound, Hong Yang immediately dodged to the side and stared at the wall while holding his breath.

BOOM!

With a dull thud, the wall slowly moved to the left and right, revealing a pitch-black cave entrance.

Next, a white shadow floated out like a ghost!

Hong Yang stared at the white figure and carefully examined it, his heart involuntarily twitched, this was definitely not a ghost, it was the one and only daughter of Luo Family who could not see his corpse and live, Luo Qingyao!

Of course, Hong Yang recognized him, but everyone in the Ningyang City knew who he was.

This was because Luo Qingyao was extremely beautiful, with an unfathomable beauty. She was also as pure as ice and as pure as jade, her demeanor was elegant and refined. "Moreover, he was kind and benevolent.

Luo Qingyao understood the dao of medicine, knew how to use medicine, and often gave medicine for the poor and pitiful of them. This was very different from the temperament of some of the children of noble clans. Their good deeds were widely praised.

Luo Qingyao was the only disciple in the Ningyang who was able to cultivate and master alchemy. Although her bone root was a bit lacking, with her intelligence and the assistance of pills, she was still able to cultivate to the Returning Origin Stage.

One had to know that it was not easy for an Alchemy family to produce a dual cultivation in alchemy. It was almost one in a million. The future of this kind of disciples was limitless, they would definitely become a Pill Master of their generation, and they would even have a chance to obtain higher achievements.

Luo Hua had originally planned to send Luo Qingyao back to the Pine Wind County after a while. That place had an even richer supply and network of contacts, which could allow Luo Qingyao to quickly grow up.

All of the branches that were sent to various pill families were in fact dissatisfied with the result. They either did not achieve anything in years or did not produce any talented people.

Luo Hua had always been holding back his anger in his heart, and had always wanted to find a chance to return to his clan. Luo Qingyao was his bargaining chip.

And now, seeing that Luo Qingyao was still alive, made Hong Yang feel extremely excited. With Luo Qingyao here, she would be able to make the truth come to light and make him feel wronged.

Unable to restrain himself, Hong Yang came out from behind the screen in a flash, and called out softly, "Luo Qingyao."

Ah!

But just as Hong Yang was able to stand steadily, a sharp scream immediately broke the silence.

Luo Qingyao was terrified, her jade like face lost all color, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably as she retreated.

"This is bad!"

Seeing Luo Qingyao being frightened, Hong Yang actually wanted to return to the secret room.

Not giving it much time to think, Hong Yang rushed forward like an arrow, wanting to pull Luo Qingyao back.

Just as he was getting close, Hong Yang suddenly saw Luo Qingyao's right hand raise towards him, and in her hand was actually a pitch black dagger.

In order to not let Luo Qingyao return to the secret room, the movement when Hong Yang charged forward was quick and fierce, and this thrust of Luo Qingyao's was fast and ruthless.

Never in his wildest dreams would Hong Yang have thought that there would be a dark dagger in Luo Qingyao's hand, and that he would actually make a move against him.

Puff!

The dagger pierced through his chest!

Hong Yang stood in place blankly for a moment, then his body went limp as he directly pounced forward.

After Luo Qingyao had stabbed Hong Yang, she was stunned like a wooden chicken, but she was caught off guard by Hong Yang's pounce. The two of them then rolled back into the pitch black secret room.

Behind the secret room door was a flight of stairs. At the same time Hong Yang and Luo Qingyao tumbled down, the stone doors slowly closed once again.

If Hong Yang discovered that the stone doors had fallen, he would understand why he couldn't find the secret room during the day. There were seven stone doors in a row, one close to the other, with no gaps between them. No matter how much people knocked outside, there would not be any hollow echoes.

The secret room was very spacious, it was brightly lit, all sorts of ingredients were present, it seemed like Luo Hua took quite a bit of effort to create this room.

Luo Qingyao struggled as she climbed up to the wall of the secret room. She leaned against the wall and trembled as she looked at the man who was lying on the ground with her back facing the sky and no signs of life.

"Don't... Don't... "Don't..."

Luo Qingyao curled up against the wall and kept repeating the same word. In the midst of his tears, the scene from that night once again appeared before her eyes …
