Chapter 34: Serial Murder Case
"Sister, have you eaten?"
Liefu also caught up at this time, she was carrying a huge luggage bag, panting and staring wide-eyed, "Wow, wow, wow, you're actually faster than me, quickly tell me what brand this is**, I'll take it to feed Su Danozi, eat until he's erect, then chop off his old second!"
"Faye, don't talk nonsense, this is the mountain top!" Lie Ruoyu's face changed color in shock, fortunately, here was hundreds of meters away from the thatched cottage, otherwise Su Tianhe would have heard these words...
"Huh?"
She suddenly saw that her sister was carrying a huge bundle, like a small rabbit holding an elephant, with tired hands and feet trembling. But Ye Huan, this shameless ***, was actually lying on the ground panting heavily, having walked all the way here.
"Yehuan, how can you let a little girl carry a heavy backpack while you, a grown man, walk up the mountain?!"
Come on, I'm doing this for your own good!
Ye Huan let out a helpless sigh, the intense mental exhaustion from the hypnosis and the night of mountain climbing had left him without the energy to explain. He lay on the ground, weakly gasping for air, his muscles so soft that he didn't even have the strength to move.
"Hmmph, I'll settle the score with you later!"
Liejue Yu was surprisingly the most physically capable among the three, and she respectfully knelt down, waiting for a white-haired, dust-free old man in a white robe to walk out of the gate.
Su Tianhe finally appeared!
"Alas..." He sighed, "With a granddaughter like you, what more could Lao Wang ask for!"
"Lao Wu San, can't you save face? Come out already! Lü Fei Er yelled in a bad mood, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up to help, my grandfather is about to be killed!"
"Faye, don't talk nonsense, apologize to Old Su immediately!"
"Haha, so this is Lie Fei Er, I've heard of her, the little boss of Axe Gang, a lovely kid," Su Tian He didn't take it to heart, his identity and mentality weren't at the point where he'd compete with a child, "Yu Yu, bring your sister in, you've already reached this level, if I, Su Tian He, don't see you two now, there'll be no place for me in the world!"
As he spoke, he saw Ye Huan panting like a lazy dog beside him.
"This little brother is..."
Su Tianhe's face turned gloomy, what kind of person is this? A grown man, actually letting Fei'er carry his backpack, and he himself was panting with exhaustion! His first impression of Ye Huan was extremely bad. Su Tianhe only grudgingly said, "Let him come in too, there's a rug inside, let him rest for a while before talking!"
To his great embarrassment, Ye Huan was carried into the thatched cottage by Lie Feier.
This was a very humble abode, at first glance, Ye Huan thought of the hut in Hei Gu, with a circular structure, a three-legged round table in the middle, on which there was a crystal ball the size of a fist, and on both sides of the house, one side had the simplest cooking utensils, it could be seen that Su Tianhe even did things like cooking himself, living a self-sufficient and detached life.
On the other side was a fur blanket, and Ye Huan was thrown onto it by Lie Fei Er.
I'm really exhausted...
At this moment, Ye Huan could only be a bystander and didn't even have the chance to interrupt.
"Mr. Su, this is a small gift, please accept it!"
Liejue Yu first took out a small box from his pocket, inside were cat's eye stones, jadeite, and night pearls, all very valuable things. However, in the eyes of Su Tianhe, who had been a great general before, it was just a smile, and he put it aside.
"He asked: 'I heard your voice saying that a man's life is in danger at dawn and dusk. Who is threatening him?'"
Just as Lie Ruoyu was about to speak, Lie Feier, who was already in a bad mood, suddenly covered her sister's mouth with a "slap", raised her chin provocatively and said, "Hey, Su Big Nose, you're so capable, guess it yourself! I'll give you a hint, my grandfather is the King of Lie, one of the Nine Saints, and under him are dozens of super powerful uncles and cousins, as well as hundreds of thousands of brothers. Even if you were to win completely, you wouldn't have the qualifications to threaten his life!"
"Hehe, what a lovely little guy! However, it's not good for kids to use dirty language!"
Su Tianhe looked like he had a sudden burst of childishness, with over a hundred years of secluded life, and suddenly there was a delicate little girl by his side, which really made him guess, "Is it the Dragon Clan's Duoli? Your grandfather snatched a night pearl from his hand back then and slapped him, this old dragon has been resentful, closed his doors for decades, maybe he came out to take revenge!"
"One of the four great dragons of the Dragon Clan, ranked fifth in the monster ranking... Heh heh, he does have some strength, but let's guess another one!"
Liefu pouted.
"That's... Xue Chou, the old man? Back when the Nine Saints were ranked, he should have been first, and might have even reached our Three Sages' level. Unfortunately, he had the strength of one of the strongest New Humans, but not the character to match. Your grandfather led dozens of people in a siege against him..."
"Guess again! Guess again!"
"Is it Lan Qi? The world says that the tenth-level ancestral soul is the pinnacle of the new human, but you and your grandfather know that there are also strong and weak among the tenth-level ancestral souls. Lan Qi is the strongest among the tenth-level ancestral souls...” Su Tianhe was somewhat downcast, “In fact, in terms of true strength, Lan Qi is not inferior to us three sages!”
As he spoke, he sighed, "In recent years, the mainland has been turbulent, and many strong people who have been hidden for many years, such as Duoli, Xuechuan, and Lanqi, should also appear now?"
"They won't show up!"
Lie Ru Yu finally couldn't bear her sister's nonsense anymore, she lowered her head and said in a somewhat difficult tone, "Last March, Duoli left the pass, originally intending to find my grandfather to avenge him, but at the entrance of his lair, he was defeated by someone with one move, his mother's soul was destroyed, and he died on the spot!"
Su Tianhe was slightly stunned, "Where is Old Man Xuechou?"
"Last May, Xue Chuan dueled with someone and was killed instantly in under five seconds with just one move!!"
"Na Lan Qi..."
"Lan Qi originally wanted to escape, but was blocked at the door, and in the end... it was all over with one move, in less than five seconds!"
Su Tianhe stood up abruptly, "These several strong men who are no less than the Nine Saints' Heroes were all killed by someone!?"
"The same person killed!"
The room suddenly became quiet, Su Tianhe fell silent for a moment, exhaled a long breath, he sat beside the round table, gently stroking the crystal ball on the tabletop, as if thinking about something. At this moment, Ye Huan was also stirred up with curiosity, struggling to lift her head, and listening carefully...
"Have the ability to continuously kill these few strong people..."
Su Tianhe said half a sentence, and his eyes lit up with understanding, indicating that he had already thought of who the person was. However, he still let out an incredulous sigh, "Were there others killed too? Were their deaths also caused by someone destroying their mother soul, defeated in one move?"
"Furthermore!!!" Su Tianhe's face was almost drained of blood, "Did they receive a... before they died?"
"Yes, they received this!"
Liejueyu flipped her hand and placed a playing card on the round table.
This is a tarot card!
Akane-san, Shinigami, Daibu!
