"Is the murderer Ji Ning?" Beishan Baimei asked anxiously, "Father, what are you talking about? What murderer? What do you mean?"
"You still can't guess?" Beishan Heihu looked at his own son.
This is the son he has placed his greatest hopes on, and has been pouring all his efforts into cultivating. If not for his hopes, he would have completely let Beishan Baimei do as he pleased... letting him become a spoiled brat, allowing him to live a carefree and ignorant life. But precisely because of his hopes, that's why he is strict in his demands.
"What does Father mean?" Beishan Baimei also furrowed her brow, "If Jining brothers didn't want Tianbaoshan to know at the time, it must be that they were doing something shady! Did he go and kill some enemy with a powerful background? Dongqi, Yutang, Shuiyi... those three people, only Dongqi has some connections! Could it be that he killed Dongqi? But behind Dongqi is just one Yuan Shen Dao person, not worth Father's attention like this."
Beishan Heihu nodded: "It's not Dong Qi, he went to kill Yu Tong."
"Yu Cong? He's just a small fry." Bei Shan Bai Wei shook his head.
"Ke Yucong's master, the True Man of the Remaining Moon, was also present at that time, so he should have been killed by Ji Ning for obstructing him and being implicated in the fish in the pond." Beishan Heihu looked at his son, "And this True Man of the Remaining Moon is a retired Xian cultivator from one of the branches of my Beishan clan's Xian cultivator army, the 'Xuan Army'."
"What!" Beishan Baimei's face changed instantly, he of course knew that the Beishan clan had some secretly powerful cultivator troops.
Any vassal will have some troops of Xian cultivators.
The Great Xia Dynasty also knew, but the vassals had how many secret troops, each troop had how many cultivators, and how many powerful existences were hidden... This was a secret.
"Retired cultivator of the Xuanwu Army?" Beishan Baimei muttered to himself, "Able to retire? Must have served for a very, very long time... Then there must be many old brothers who can live in retirement like this, usually they are the reverse scales of the cultivator army."
"Yes, Inverse Scale!" North Mountain Black Tiger said in a low voice, "They fought for the North Mountain clan and were killed or wounded countless times. Those who retired alive are extremely rare. If a retired old cultivator is killed... it will naturally make many cultivators in the army angry! They absolutely do not allow such things to happen, if they do, they also want to find out who the murderer is, to avenge their old brothers!"
"This is the Reverse Scale of the Xian Xia Army! Touch it and you will die!" Beishan Heihu's eyes were also serious.
This is an unspoken rule of the army.
They won't let their elder brother suffer anymore!
Absolutely not allowed!
"Ji Ning and his companions' hands and feet are very clean." Bei Shan Hei Hu said, "The Xuan Jun's Intelligence Division has started investigating, many ordinary people's memories on the Can Yue Mountain have been searched, even that 'Can Yue True Man', the original Blood Robe was also found, but it was thrown into the depths of the earth."
However, since three people died at the time, namely Can Yue, his disciple Yu Tong, and his daughter Yue Wei. Therefore, the Xuan Army Intelligence Division also began to investigate Yu Tong and Yue Wei...
"It was soon discovered that someone had recently inquired about Yu Tang's information on Tianbao Mountain."
Beishan Heihu looked at his son, "Xuan Jun's side followed this clue and investigated it to my Beishan Heihu Mansion! So I knew about this matter.
"What's to be done?" asked Beishan Baimei anxiously.
"Xuan Jun now has several leads to investigate..." said Bei Shan Hei Hu, "However, if 'Shui Yi' and 'Dong Qi', the two of them died one after another, then Xuan Jun will probably determine that the murderer is very likely the person who bought the information about the three people on Tian Bao Mountain."
Bei Shan Bai Wei said urgently: "Then I'll immediately find Ji Ning brothers and ask him to temporarily stop killing Shui Yi, Dong Qi?"
"It's useless."
Beishan Heihu shook his head, "Other clues believe that Xuang Jun will veto soon, and when the time comes, he will come to my mansion to investigate this matter."
"What's good to do then?" Beishan Baimei worried.
"There are two ways." Bei Shan Hei Hu said.
Bei Shan Bai Wei looked at her own father.
"First, let's abandon Ji Ning," said Hei Hu of Beishan. "That way we won't have any trouble either."
"No way." Bei Shan Bai Wei shook her head.
"Hahaha, you're indeed my son! Right, don't easily give up on your good friends and brothers. If you do... then you won't be able to make true good friends and brothers either! You have to truly put in effort for others to go all out for you, got it?"
Beishan Bai Wei was taken aback for a moment.
"There's only one way left." Bei Shan Hei Hu said, "Directly admit that you led the people to do this thing."
"Me?" Beishan Baimei was taken aback.
"Yes, directly admit to the Xuan army that it was you who did it. You sent someone to investigate and gather intelligence, then led people to kill Yu Tong! However, you were obstructed by Can Yue Zhen Ren... so you also killed Can Yue Zhen Ren!" Bei Shan Hei Hu said directly, "You don't even know that Can Yue Zhen Ren was a retired cultivator. As the saying goes, 'those who are unaware are not guilty', and the Xuan army can't force blame on you... You, as a direct descendant of the Bei Shan clan, have a promising future ahead of you, including possibly becoming the An Bang Hou. Accidentally killing Can Yue Zhen Ren is just a small matter."
"This matter is trivial, as the Xuan Army is still a force nurtured by our Beishan clan. Even if it's an accident, the core disciples of our Beishan clan won't be bothered, and those cultivators in the Xuan Army wouldn't dare to make a fuss."
"If others were to come and resist, they would almost certainly be killed."
Beishan Heihu looked at his son and said, "However, this way, there will probably be some old guys on the Xuanjun side who are prejudiced against you."
"It's just disgust? A retired Wanxiang Zhenren... If there is even one immortal who truly has a relationship with him, it would be too much! As for those who truly dislike me, I'm afraid they are extremely few. "Bei Shan Baiwei shook his head, "Anyway, I am currently unable to contact Xuanyuan, and as for Ji Ning brothers, I can see that they are capable of being loyal to each other, this matter, I refuse!"
"Alright."
Beishan Heihu nodded, "As for how Yu Tong, Shui Yi and Dong Qi offended you, I will also come up with a good reason."
"Everything is up to Father now." Bei Shan Bai Wei said respectfully.
"Remember!" Bei Shan Hei Hu looked at his son, saying in a low tone, "You've done well to be kind to your brother. But remember... what you do for him, you must also let Ji Ning know."
"Let him know?" Beishan Baiwei was taken aback.
"Alright, let him know what you've sacrificed for him." Bei Shan Hei Hu said calmly, "You paid a great price, if he doesn't even know about it, isn't that all in vain? If you let him unintentionally find out the truth, then he will naturally be grateful to you."
Bei Shan Bai Wei frowned: "Isn't that a bit too much?"
"Is that so?" Beishan Heihu looked at his son, "Just let him unintentionally discover the truth, after all, you really did it for him... Remember, when dealing with good friends and brothers, although you want to be sincere, you also need to add a bit of strategy, this is the way to use people!"
"Think about it yourself."
Beishan Heihu frowned and looked at his son, who was very intelligent and had high hopes for himself. However, his son was also influenced by his mother and was sometimes too honest with others. Although this made it easier to make good friends, such a personality would find it difficult to truly lead a powerful force.
"Let's go." Bei Shan Hei Hu took the old man with triangular eyes and left directly.
The courtyard suddenly relaxed from the previously frozen atmosphere, and the beautiful maid who was singing a tune on the side finally woke up: "What's wrong, what happened just now?"
Just now she didn't hear anything, didn't see anything, and even lost a piece of memory.
He vaguely remembered that the master of the house 'Bei Shan Hei Hu' appeared, and when he came to again, he saw that the master Bei Shan Hei Hu had left once more.
"Scheming? The art of using people?" Beishan Baimei furrowed her brow, "Father, you use your mind to plot against anyone... that's why Mother left you. You are you, and I am me."
His father wanted to cultivate him and make him another Bei Shan Hei Hu.
But he is Bei Shan Bai Wei.
Unique and unparalleled Beishan Baiwei!
"I wonder how Ji Ning is doing now." Beishan Baiwei worried.
Ji Ning and his party arrived at Yang River Bay in Anping County after more than half a month of flight.
The Bay of Hangzhou is roughly the same size as the region of Yanshan.
"The tribes of the water are truly weak and small." A boat was drifting on the Yangtze River, which was over 200 zhang wide. The Yangtze River was a river that stretched for over a hundred million li, passing through nearly half of Anping County.
The wooden boat sailed upstream, and Mu Zixiao felt a sense of melancholy, "Not even a single large city exists!"
"It's very weak." Ji Ning nodded.
The Ji family also has a large Xia city, Wanjian City. At least having one large Xia city can be considered as a true native force.
The Kui Water tribe is really very weak.
Before the rise of Shui Yi, their tribe was just an ordinary tribe. Later, Shui Yi became a super-large tribe, 'Dong Shi', as a servant, in the Dong Shi tribe was cultivated, step by step promotion all became Zifu repairmen, even followed 'Dong Qi Gongzi' for a long time, he naturally returned to his own tribe 'Shui Shi'.
With the help of Yu, the Shui clan gradually grew strong and built a city, not the Great Xia City, but a self-built city like the Ji Clan's Western Capital.
Shui also relied on another tribal force.
Because of the Shui family's 'Shui Yi', in the Dong family tribe... so no one dared to provoke the Shui family, and the Shui family grew up like this, even now there is a Zifu period cultivator sitting in the clan.
"Senior brother, how are you planning to lure out Shui Yi and make him leave the Dong Clan on his own?" Mu Zi Xiao smiled as he looked at Ji Ning.
"It's too easy." Ji Ning shook his head, "His clan 'Water Clan' is too weak, with only one Purple Mansion cultivator in the entire clan. I have ways to make Water Clan chaotic and panicked! Let Water Yi hurry back!"
There are many ways indeed.
The Shui tribe is too weak and small, as soon as they encounter a big turtle's trouble, they will definitely send a message to the 'Shui Yi' for help.
"Master, kill! A big killing spree will create chaos!" Qingqing shouted.
Ji Ning shook his head: "No need."
Just like Jiang He who killed the Riverside Tribe in the beginning did not implicate his son, Ji Ning.
Ji Ning would not implicate other members of the Shui Clan.
As for Shui's death and the decline of the Shui family... Ji Ning could only watch all this with indifference.
As a cultivator with a strong sense of righteousness, Ji Ning was extremely confident in himself and would not do anything that went against his moral compass... just like how killing Jiang He's child back then had affected his faith and ultimately had a huge impact on his cultivation path.
"Not killing? How can we make them chaotic?" Qingqiang muttered.
"It's quick, you're here, I'll go for a trip and be back in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea." A sword light appeared under Ji Ning's feet, directly breaking through the air and flying towards the root of the Shui clan thousands of miles away - Yi Water City.
