C3710 Demon Trace Reappeared
"I don't know." King Qingyang shook his head.
Zhu Yuan frowned slightly, revealing a hint of suspicion.
King Qingyang bitterly smiled. "To tell you the truth, I am also confused. Although I have some old enemies that I have had conflicts with, with my understanding of them, they would not attack me on my birthday."
The expressions of the Foundation Establishment cultivators here sank when they heard this, and they became extremely unsightly.
Was the Azure Yang King not going to care?
As if he knew what they were thinking, the Azure Sun King looked at everyone. "Everyone, what happened here? Who can tell me..."
"Senior, there's a killer..."
"There's more than one. When I left earlier, I saw a lot..."
"I don't think so. I saw a few of them turn into black smoke and disappear..."
As they talked, Jiang Ting, who was mixed in the crowd, quickly understood what had happened.
Many black-robed men had appeared here.
Unfortunately, many of the guests had been resting or cultivating in their rooms. No one had noticed them at the beginning.
Most importantly, according to the words of the few lucky survivors, they were about to die in the hands of the black-robed men, but for some reason... Not long ago, the auras of those black-robed men suddenly became unstable... Following which, most of them retreated, while a few of them directly turned into black Qi and disappeared.
As for the specifics, they were also unclear.
However, after they communicated with each other, they realized that many people in black robes had appeared. They had all appeared at the same time. As for the exact reason, they did not know.
On the other hand, Jiang Ting, who had been silent all this while, suddenly found out that when those black-robed men appeared, as expected, it happened to be the moment when the black-robed man who was about to kill him committed suicide.
When he thought of the devilish Qi and the fact that the person in black robes was merely an incarnation of a Golden Core Heavenly Realm cultivator... It was very likely that all the people in black robes who had attacked them were the incarnations of the Golden Core cultivators.
Because he had chosen the wrong target, a follow-up problem had occurred. Also, due to the unforeseen circumstances at that time, he had not been able to conceal his aura properly and had been detected by others. Hence, he could only choose to retreat.
Probably, that should be the case.
On the other side.
The Green Sun King didn't have as much information as Jiang Ting. After listening to what the others said, how dare you come to my birthday banquet and kill me? How dare you! Everyone, don't worry. I guarantee that I will catch the murderer. Bring him to justice! "
Although the cultivation of the people here wasn't high, most of these people represented their respective influences in congratulating them. If they didn't pacify them and were misunderstood by the other influences, then at that time, it was likely that Zenith Palace would be surrounded and attacked.
The originally furious crowd quickly calmed down after being consoled by the Azure Sun King.
After all, if the Azure Yang King, a dignified Golden Core realm existence, personally pacified them, would they still roar and roar?
Seeing everyone calm down...
King Qingyang's expression softened, and then he said with a cold expression, "Everyone, I'm not sure who the murderer is at the moment, but I'm afraid I'll have to make everyone suffer next..."
There were quite a number of houses in this place. Some of the houses that had powers behind them were all separate rooms or courtyards.
And now, it was clearly not suitable to continue with the single-door courtyard... Previously, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a problem with the black-robed man, which caused his aura to leak out, it would have alarmed everyone else. It was likely that there would still be many people who knew nothing about it. Their lives would have been taken.
In order to prevent any accidents, the Azure Yang King placed everyone else in pairs... If they were not alone, even if the black-robed man appeared again, even if they could not defeat him, they would still be able to send out some signals.
The most reliable one was naturally the Azure Yang King or a Golden Core cultivator. However, the Azure Yang King was clearly not interested in staying here as a bodyguard.
Although the rest of the people were still worried, King Qingyang had already made his decision, so they naturally could not continue to refute. They could only live together in pairs.
There were many people who were not worried. In their opinion, since the Azure Yang King, a Golden Core warrior, had been alarmed, who would still dare to act fierce?
Jiang Ting also took advantage of the situation and left the place, preparing to return to the mountain peak on the other side.
Not long after he left the building complex, Jiang Ting turned his head again, and just happened to see Zhu Yuan chasing after him along with King Qingyang.
"You are... Daoist Jiang Ting?" King Qingyang revealed a look of joy.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. It wasn't that I told you about it, but that you were too famous. You were hiding your face just now. When I saw you, I was able to recognize you very quickly." Zhu Yuan shook his head and explained.
It was King Qingyang himself who recognized Jiang Ting, not Zhu Yuan.
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Qingyang." Jiang Ting revealed a smile.
"You are too polite, Fellow Daoist Jiang."
After saying that, King Qingyang revealed a regretful expression. "I didn't know that you had come for the grand prize, but I neglected you. I didn't receive you well, so I hope you won't blame me..."
Jiang Ting didn't mind at all. "It doesn't matter. I like peace and quiet. It was also I who asked Fellow Daoist Zhu not to reveal my tracks. No wonder Fellow Daoist Qingyang said so."
After exchanging a few pleasantries.
King Qingyang revealed a somewhat anxious expression. "Fellow Daoist's strength is monstrous, and you weren't too far away from the guest area. I wonder if you have discovered anything?"
Jiang Ting did not reply, but instead stared at King Qingyang.
"Fellow Daoist, I... what's wrong with me?" King Qingyang felt his hair stand on end.
Jiang Ting looked at him for a while before he slowly said, "I found that, indeed, there are some."
"Really?" King Qingyang was stunned. It was as if he was just asking politely, but in the end, he really found something?
"Who dares to cause trouble here?" Zhu Yuan revealed a slightly annoyed expression.
It seemed like he was even more anxious than the main character, the Azure Yang King.
"Maybe it's the Golden Core incarnation."
After saying that, Jiang Ting turned around and left. "Before this, there was someone who dared to attack me, but after he died, I found out... His body was long dead, and his divine soul had disappeared without a trace. It was obvious that his body had been seized and controlled by a powerful warrior with a wisp of his Divine Clone. He was like a puppet. "
"An existence at the Golden Core Realm?" The Azure Yang King's expression changed drastically.
However, Jiang Ting didn't reply. He had already left.
King Qingyang immediately became uneasy. "Brother Zhu, could it be that Fellow Daoist Jiang doesn't like me?"
Zhu Yuan immediately shook his head and explained, "I don't think so. Fellow Daoist Jiang doesn't like noise and likes peace. It's not that he doesn't like Brother Qingyang."
Although he wasn't familiar with Jiang Ting, he couldn't allow his good friend to lose his composure.
Besides, for no reason, he didn't believe that Jiang Ting would do anything to his friend. Perhaps he hated Jiang Ting.
...
In the distance.
Very quickly, Jiang Ting returned to the mountain that Zhu Yuan had assigned to him.
In the courtyard.
After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Ting stood in the courtyard and looked into the distance at the blazing fireball in the sky. His eyes narrowed slightly.
The cultivation base of the Azure Sun King was not right.
