Immortal God of War-Chapter 921 - 879: Suspicion

The elderly gentleman is Elder Wu!

He happened to pass by and saw Guo Yun and Guo Feng gathering the disciples of the Sky Scorpio Tribe, realizing something was wrong, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.

Guo Yun and Guo Feng turned to look at Elder Wu.

"Elder, we didn’t plan to do anything, we just want to go back to collect the bodies of our people."

"Yes, they are all our closest relatives, our parents are among them, we can’t let their bodies be exposed in the wild!"

Their eyes were bloodshot, and this sentence was almost shouted out.

Elder Wu glanced at the two, then looked at the thousands of tribesmen of the Sky Scorpio Tribe below.

Finally, he withdrew his pressure, waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, but remember, don’t act recklessly."

"Thank you, Elder."

Thousands bowed in unison, opened door after door of teleportation gates, and successively stepped inside.

"Alas!"

Watching those departing backs, Elder Wu sighed deeply and continued to sweep toward the depths.

Some things, he must understand.

A moment later.

He entered the holy land and landed in front of the courtyard of the General Tower Master, bowed and said, "Wu Daping, requests an audience with the General Tower Master."

"Come in!"

A calm voice came from inside the pavilion.

Elder Wu pushed the door open, striding into the pavilion.

Salon!

The General Tower Master leaned against the chair, eyes slightly closed, a trace of inseparable sadness between his brows.

"Greetings, Master."

Elder Wu walked to the General Tower Master, bowed respectfully.

"Do you have something to discuss with me?"

The General Tower Master asked, but did not open his eyes.

"I just heard that the Sky Scorpio Tribe was massacred last night, and the culprit is the mysterious woman beside Qin Feiyang. Is this true?"

Elder Wu respectfully asked.

The General Tower Master was silent for a while before speaking, "I cannot determine this matter."

"Hmm?"

Elder Wu was puzzled.

"At the time of the incident last night, only the Mu Family was present, but I cannot fully trust the word of the Mu Family, so more investigation is needed."

The General Tower Master said.

"Mu Family?"

Elder Wu was stunned, frowned and said, "Since the Mu Family was coincidentally at the Sky Scorpio Tribe, why didn’t they intervene to save them?"

"That mysterious woman is very powerful, who would dare try to stop her?"

"However, I have already sent Gongsun Bei to carefully search the Sky Scorpio Mountains to see if there are any other witnesses."

"Why are you so concerned about this matter?"

"Do you have any relations with the Sky Scorpio Tribe?"

The General Tower Master asked suspiciously.

"I do have some connections, but that’s not the reason, I just want to ascertain the truth of the rumors outside."

Elder Wu said.

The General Tower Master nodded and waved his hand, "If there is nothing else, you may leave."

"Yes."

Elder Wu responded respectfully, then turned and left.

Not long after Elder Wu departed, a youth in purple clothes appeared before the General Tower Master.

It was Gongsun Bei!

"How did the investigation go?"

The General Tower Master finally opened his eyes, a glimmer of anticipation flashing within.

"I searched hundreds of miles around, not a single survivor."

Gongsun Bei shook his head and said.

"What about the fierce beasts?"

"I remember, the fierce beasts of the Sky Scorpio Mountains are very strong, some are even sacred beasts."

"Their intelligence is on par with ours, did you inquire them?"

The General Tower Master frowned.

"I naturally thought of that, but let alone fierce beasts, even a single insect is nowhere to be found."

"In fact, even the fierce beasts outside the Sky Scorpio Mountains have all been exterminated."

"In short, nothing gained."

Gongsun Bei sighed.

The General Tower Master’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

"Something’s wrong!"

Suddenly.

He stood up, a trace of suspicion climbing in his eyes.

"What’s wrong?"

Gongsun Bei was puzzled.

"To wipe out all these fierce beasts, the sole reason might be to cover something up."

"If the Sky Scorpio Tribe was truly destroyed by that mysterious woman, does she need to cover it up?"

"Though I have not seen this woman, from her actions in the nine regions, it is not hard to judge that she is a very flamboyant person. I don’t think she would go to such lengths."

The General Tower Master analyzed.

"This..."

Gongsun Bei pondered for a moment, then said, "Perhaps she has some unspeakable scheme that she does not want others to know?"

The General Tower Master thought carefully and nodded, "This is not outside the realm of possibility."

After speaking.

He looked at Gongsun Bei, saying, "We cannot take this matter lightly. While searching for the mysterious woman, also keep an eye on the Mu Family’s movements."

"Is the Master beginning to suspect the Mu Family?"

Gongsun Bei asked.

"Not suspect, but a precaution."

"After all, as you said, they are outsiders, so mysterious, and now such a major event has occurred, precaution is necessary!"

"Additionally, for convenience in handling this matter, from this moment on, all divine envoys of our Elixir Tower will be under your command."

The General Tower Master finished speaking, returned to his seat, appearing quite weary.

Gongsun Bei’s eyes gleamed, bowed and said, "I will do my utmost to complete the task."

"Also, go find Hao’er and tell him, during this period, if possible, stay indoors as much as possible."

"I have a premonition that a great turmoil may occur in our Central Divine Kingdom."

The General Tower Master said.

"Yes."

Gongsun Bei bowed respectfully, then turned, striding out of the pavilion, shutting the door behind him, and gazed up at the sky.

"Chaos?"

"Humph!"

"Anyone who dares to disrupt the order of my Central Divine Nation, I, Gongsun Bei, will not let them off!"

Gongsun Bei mumbled, his eyes emanating intense cold light, then soared into the sky, disappearing like lightning on the horizon.

...

One tower!

Elder Wu was pacing back and forth in front of the tower door, as if hesitating about something.

"Elder, do you need something?"

A few disciples passed by here, looking at him suspiciously.

"Don’t bother me, scram!"

Elder Wu didn’t even glance at them, impatiently shouted.

The disciples shrunk their necks, hurriedly fleeing in panic.

After another moment.

Elder Wu finally stopped walking, gazing at the tower door in front, mumbling, "Can’t care about so much now, must ask this clearly."

He took out his Identity Token, activated the tower door, then transformed into a streak of light, darted into the Elixir Tower.

Quickly!

He reached the door of the tenth alchemy room, extending his hand to knock forcefully.

After more than ten breaths, the stone door still didn’t open, Elder Wu growing impatient, prepared to knock again.

But at this moment.

The stone door swiftly opened.

And Qin Feiyang stood right behind the door.

Elder Wu cut to the chase, "Got time? There’s something I’d like to ask you."

Qin Feiyang looked at Elder Wu with suspicion, nodded and moved aside.

Elder Wu walked into the alchemy room.

Qin Feiyang also casually closed the stone door, smiling and asked, "Elder, why do you seem somewhat unsettled?"

Elder Wu turned to Qin Feiyang, his face extremely serious, said, "Be honest, does the Sky Scorpio Tribe’s annihilation have anything to do with you?"

"Hm?"

Qin Feiyang was stunned, asked in shock, "You say the Sky Scorpio Tribe was annihilated?"

"You don’t know yet?"

This put Elder Wu in a spot.

After all this time, this guy still doesn’t know?

And Qin Feiyang’s initial reaction didn’t seem like an act.

"I don’t know!"

"I’ve been focused on training, just arrived at the General Tower, don’t have any friends, so no one told me."

"Elder, you’re not joking, are you?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"I don’t have the mood to joke with you. This has already caused a storm in the city, everyone knows it."

Elder Wu sighed.

"Who did it?"

"To be able to wipe out the Sky Scorpio Tribe, that’s impressive!"

Qin Feiyang was incredibly surprised, with a hint of admiration on his face.

"I just dug for information from the General Tower’s master; apparently, the culprit is an associate of Qin Feiyang, that mysterious woman."

"Moreover, the Mu Family people even saw her personally during the massacre of the Sky Scorpio Tribe."

Elder Wu said.

"I see!"

Qin Feiyang suddenly understood, smiled, "I’ve heard about Qin Feiyang’s deeds in the nine regions, truly a character without bonds."

Anyone who compliments themselves? If Mu Qing were here, she’d surely look down on him.

"And you’re still laughing."

Elder Wu glanced at him, said, "Frankly, I previously suspected you and Qin Daye."

"This..."

Qin Feiyang was dumbfounded, quickly said, "Elder, you can’t say things like this carelessly!"

"Can’t blame me!"

"After all, I just asked for your help yesterday, and at night, the Sky Scorpio Tribe was annihilated; anyone would suspect you."

"But now, I can be sure this has nothing to do with you."

Elder Wu chuckled and finally sighed with relief.

Qin Feiyang laughed, "Elder, wise as always."

"Don’t flatter me."

"Here’s my advice: no matter your relationship with Envoy Liu, best to behave in the General Tower in the future."

Elder Wu sternly advised.

"I’ll remember."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Elder Wu smiled contentedly, said, "Then I’ll take my leave."

"Take care, won’t see you out."

Qin Feiyang clasped his hands and smiled.

Elder Wu turned to open the stone door, then looked back at Qin Feiyang, "You might not know about the martial arts treasury; every new disciple gets a free entry, you and Qin Daye should find time to check it out, maybe you’ll encounter a perfect combat technique."

"Alright."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Elder Wu smiled, then left with hands behind back.

"Didn’t expect this old man to be so suspicious."

Qin Feiyang mumbled, waved his hand to close the stone door, then entered the ancient castle again.

"That Elder Wu seems quite concerned about you."

Within the ancient castle.

Lu Hong looked up at Qin Feiyang, with a charming smile on her face.

"He’s indeed a pretty good person."

"But also clear he’s very loyal to the General Tower."

"If he knew this was all connected to me, he wouldn’t have this attitude now."

"A mere passerby in my life, won’t intersect much."

"That martial arts treasury though, should find time to take a look."

Qin Feiyang said with a faint smile.

Lu Hong laughed, "Then I wish you beforehand to find a perfect combat technique."

"Perfect combat technique, not so easily found."

"Even if found, may not be suitable for my training."

Qin Feiyang smiled and shook his head, walked to the altar, completely calming his mind, copying the Killing Art.

He’s already resolved not to exit seclusion before completing this last stroke.
