Xiang Xueer slowly pushed him away and said, "Qingtian, you need to tell me in detail about the day your father was murdered. Every detail matters; not a single glance should be overlooked."
"Alright, follow me!" Qingtian said as he led a few people into a side hall room and began recounting everything that had happened at that time.
After a while, once Xiang Xueer finished listening to Lan Ran Qingtian's account, several questions arose in her mind. Ling Zhu couldn't help but shake his head, saying, "Qingtian, if what you say is true, considering your father's abilities, how could anyone easily kill him?"
"Indeed!" Fat Ancestor stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Your father was one of the top experts in the Exorcism Realm. Even a Demon Lord would have to expend considerable effort and means. Moreover, by the time you arrived, the entire Million Demon Lord of the Nether Abyss had vanished in an instant. This is simply unbelievable; what kind of demonic technique was used?"
After hearing Ling Zhu and Fat Ancestor's analysis, Xiang Xueer immediately nodded and said, "What you both said makes a lot of sense. However, let's not discuss how the Million Demon Army disappeared for now. What I find most difficult to understand is the last words your father spoke!"
What were those words? Indeed, at that moment, Azure Wind Sword One seemed to be pointing at something and repeatedly warned him to be careful, but he never finished speaking before passing away. What exactly did his father want to warn him about?
"Well!" Xiang Xueer stood up, crossed her arms, and looked at him with exceptionally deep eyes. "Be careful of what? You all rushed to the scene at that time, so this statement must have been very important; it likely referred to the murderer."
"The murderer? That can't be!" Lan Ran Qingtian was genuinely confused. "At that time, all the Exorcists from Saint Ten were present, and we were all together; it was impossible for anyone to harm my father."
There was some contradiction here. Xiang Xueer walked over to Lan Ran Qingtian and gently patted his shoulder. "Qingtian, I know that in your ancient customs, the deceased are paramount. However, this matter concerns the murderer who killed your father, and I have an unreasonable request for you to agree to!"
"What is it? Just say it, Shirley!" Seeing her hesitation in speaking, Lan Ran Qingtian quickly urged.
Xiang Xueer took a deep breath and looked at Qingtian's expression before saying, "I want to open the coffin for an autopsy!"
"Open the coffin for an autopsy?" Everyone looked at Xiang Xueer in shock. The person had already been buried; how could they possibly desecrate the body by taking it out of the coffin? It was simply unacceptable.
"Shirley!" Ling Zhu kindly advised Xiang Xueer with gestures to reconsider. However, Xiang Xueer continued, "I don't know how things are done in your ancient customs, but in our time, after someone dies, a forensic examination is conducted to determine the cause of death. Various clues can usually be found from the body. I'm not forcing you; Qingtian, you decide for yourself!"
After finishing her statement, Xiang Xueer patted Lan Ran Qingtian on the shoulder and turned to walk toward the backyard, leaving him alone in deep conflict.
"Big sister!" Duck looked up at Xiang Xueer with a puzzled expression and asked, "What did you just say about ancient times? I didn't understand at all. Where exactly are you from?"
"Uh?" Xiang Xueer immediately grinned, "Duck, don't worship me; I'm just a legend!"
"Hehe!" Several people covered their mouths and laughed quietly, "No matter who you are, we only know that you are Xiang Xueer, and that's enough for us to consider you our friend!"
Indeed, since they were friends, why bother about where she came from or what her identity was? Even if she were a demon or monster, so what? Hmph, such a realm is beyond the comprehension of those ordinary folks.
At the same time, nestled within the Tropical Rainforest among the Dagu La Mountain Range, a massive valley was perfectly wedged with a huge conical surface. On the stone wall of this surface were inscribed the words Nether Abyss. Flowing downstream into a low cave, the Wolf King stood on an altar where red flames flickered continuously.
Suddenly, the color of the flames gradually turned gray. The Wolf King smirked coldly and slowly stepped back, kneeling on one knee: "My lord, I humbly welcome you, Demon Lord."
Standing beside him was a mysterious man still wearing his Ghost Face Mask; no one knew his identity. He was one of the newly appointed New Four Demon Generals: Ghost Face.
"Hmm?" Ghost Face glanced sideways with his strange eyes at the black flames on the altar. With a 'poof,' the flames gradually took on a human form as someone emerged from the gray fire.
He stared in astonishment as the flames slowly dissipated, revealing the Demon Lord once again. Those Red Eyes scanned the surroundings before landing on the two people in the room.
The Wolf King slowly stood up and said, "Demon Lord, your Divine Fire Clone has become increasingly miraculous; I didn't expect it to fool that old fool Feng Qingyang and his group of Exorcists!"
"Hmph!" The Demon Lord pulled at his cloak behind him and turned to sit in the dragon-headed chair at the main hall, feeling exceptionally pleased that he had successfully deceived that old man Feng Qingyang.
"Everything is under my control. As long as that troublesome old man believes I am dead, then my grand plans can continue to be implemented," said the Demon Lord, glancing at Ghost Face beside him. "Don't you think so, General Ghost Face?"
"Hehe!" Ghost Face chuckled ominously and respectfully bowed: "As long as the Demon Lord is here, everything is under your control; we have nothing to worry about in obtaining the world!"
"Hahaha!" The Demon Lord laughed heartily, his laughter shaking the entire cave. After a while, he stopped laughing and pointed at Ghost Face: "Rest assured, as long as you assist me in seizing the world, I will definitely fulfill my promise to you!"
"Yes! Everything is based on the command of the Demon Lord!" Ghost Face lowered his head, squinting his eyes; the mask obscured his original expression, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
The Demon Lord slowly picked up the tea from the table beside him and took a sip. "You can go back now. That group of fellows is getting suspicious. If anything happens, I will have Wolf King come find you!"
Ghost Face slowly raised his head to glance at the Demon Lord before gradually exiting the cave. As he reached the entrance, he touched the mask on his face and scoffed, "Hmph! This old fox really doesn't trust me!"
Suddenly, his hand brushed against a crack in the mask, startling him. "Strange, when did this mask get a hole?"
He recalled the battle he had only seen between Azure Wind Sword One and others; this mask had only been touched by him. Could it be? After thinking this, he flicked his sleeve and a whirlwind erupted beneath his feet as he left the dense forest.
Inside the cave, Wolf King waited until Ghost Face had left before turning to the Demon Lord with a worried expression. "Demon Lord, is it really okay to let this guy know our secret?"
"What? You don't trust him?" The Demon Lord set down his teacup and looked at Wolf King's concerned face, chuckling. "Don't worry; as long as a person still has greed in this world, they can be easily manipulated. This Ghost Face is just a pawn of mine; once he loses his value, I can dispose of him at any time!"
After saying this, the teacup in his hand turned to ash in his palm. He sneered, "That little girl is quite concerning; it seems it's time to place some of our eyes around her as well!"
"Demon Lord, rest assured, I will take care of this matter right away!" Wolf King replied before turning and leaving the cave alone. The Demon Lord slowly stood up and gazed at the massive conical terrain across from him. "Hmph! That old man Feng Qingyang must be digging three feet into the ground searching for my Million Demon Army. No matter how hard you look, you won't find your way here."
"God of the Five Elements, transform into nothingness." After speaking, he clapped his hands together and quickly formed seals with his fingers. "Barrier!"
"Hahaha!" In the sky above, a massive barrier gradually formed, completely enclosing the forest within a hundred miles. Once the barrier was established, the Demon Lord slowly released his hands and looked down at the sleeping Million Demon Army beneath the ground, letting out a cold laugh that echoed through the air.
