Chapter 122 The man in black robes is... Wei Xianjun?!
"Yuxuan Mountain?"
Gao Heyun looked stunned, somewhat confused about what Cheng Laiyun meant.
In her mind, with the investigation reaching this point and Zhang Lin already dead, the trail had gone cold.
If the leads have gone cold, then a new approach to the investigation should be adopted immediately.
For example, Zhang Lin.
Look for clues in the room.
Was it suicide or murder?
The next step is simply to check Zhang Lin's movements or the people who have had close contact with him in the past few days.
Further clues can always be found.
And the time required to investigate these matters will not exceed two hours.
"What did you figure out?"
Gao Heyun frowned, looking at Cheng Laiyun in front of her, and then glanced down at Zhang Lin, who had been dead for a long time.
I had some doubts.
Cheng Laiyun took a deep breath and looked up to meet Gao Heyun's eyes.
He knew that if he didn't make things clear to Gao Heyun, given her personality, there was a high probability that she would proceed according to her own ideas.
She is a smart person.
However, the smarter a person is, the more confident they are in their own thinking.
"I've never told you what my supernatural powers are."
"I just used my supernatural powers on Zhang Lin."
In just a moment, Cheng Laiyun came up with a way to persuade Gao Heyun. His eyes were solemn: "My supernatural powers tell me that the missing giant statue from the Ministry of Works, as well as Miss Ling Ziyun, are currently at Yuxuan Mountain."
"And we have to get there within an hour."
"Believe me."
Cheng Laiyun reached out and placed his hands on Gao Heyun's shoulders, his gaze serious and fixed on her intently: "I've only told you this."
Gao Heyun stared blankly at Cheng Laiyun.
Supernatural powers.
Most people with supernatural abilities will not tell others what their abilities are.
Gao Heyun's supernatural abilities were a life bone specially prepared for her by the elders of the Gao family.
After merging with that life bone, only she herself knew what her supernatural powers were.
Feeling the warmth emanating from Cheng Laiyun's large palm on his shoulder.
And in front of me, Cheng Laiyun's handsome face, there was a seriousness and solemnity in his eyes.
A sudden tremor ran through her heart.
"Um.
Gao Heyun's expression remained indifferent. She subconsciously reached out and quietly removed Cheng Laiyun's hands from her shoulders.
"Yuxuan Mountain is a desolate mountain located thirty miles away from the capital."
I don't know if it's just my imagination.
She felt that her voice sounded a little off.
Very unnatural.
"Thirty li—" Cheng Laiyun's fist clenched tightly under his sleeve.
Thirty li is not a long distance.
But we must race against time!
"Walk!!"
Without any hesitation, he immediately spoke and walked outside, saying, "If we're late, neither Miss nor Ling Ziyun will survive!"
Watching Cheng Laiyun's retreating figure.
Gao Heyun hesitated for a moment, then followed Cheng Laiyun straight behind her.
After leaving Zhang Lin's courtyard, Gao Heyun said to the two inspectors guarding the gate, "Leave one here to keep watch, and the other go find Inspector Liu and tell him that we have found a clue at Yuxuan Mountain."
As she spoke, she suddenly channeled her spiritual power and walked outside with Cheng Laiyun.
Gao Heyun, a fifth-rank martial artist, is about to be promoted to the fourth rank.
She is the granddaughter of the current Zhenbei King of the Great Yuan Dynasty.
He was also the most promising provincial inspector in the entire Regent's Office to become the fifth inspector.
She was much faster than Cheng Laiyun.
Cheng Laiyun was extremely anxious at this moment.
Hurry up.
Faster.
No! It's still too slow!
That's right! The Rejuvenation Pill!
He narrowed his eyes and took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket.
This was given to him by Gao Heyun.
It was a reward from the imperial court.
This elixir allows martial artists below the fifth rank to recover their depleted spiritual energy in a very short time.
However, his drawback is that he can only be used by warriors.
Martial arts practitioners have thick skin and strong meridians, which can withstand the impact of the medicinal power in the pill.
"I'm a warrior too."
Cheng Laiyun hadn't forgotten that after obtaining the Lotus Dharma Body, he could cultivate both ink and martial arts.
With that in mind, he immediately uncorked the bottle, poured out a pill, and put it in his mouth.
"Bang!!!"
The instant the medicine enters the body.
Cheng Laiyun felt an extremely strong spiritual force explode within his body.
"I feel so bloated!"
"I need to vent!"
That feeling that my body was about to explode was just too unbearable!
"Armor Combination!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Cheng Laiyun summoned the giant statue directly from his sea of consciousness.
Countless points of light covered him.
A "click" sound rang out as the bearings turned.
A dull, ugly, armored colossus appeared out of nowhere at the gate of the Regent's Office.
Although this giant statue does not look much different from Cheng Laiyun's previous ones.
But compared to before, it looks very cheap.
If the previous appearance was that of an authentic product from the official flagship store, it was incredibly cool and stylish.
So now it's just fake stuff on Pinduoduo for 9.9 yuan with free shipping, it's rubbish, speechless, I'm speechless.
Gao Heyun happened to catch up to the door at that moment.
Seeing Cheng Laiyun's enormous and hideous statue.
Her face froze.
Ok?
She's seen Cheng Laiyun fight while dressed as a giant statue before.
Why is it so different from what I remember?
"Don't speak, just hold me tight."
The dim purple goggles shimmered with a faint light, like a piece of machinery on its deathbed.
The sound came from inside the colossus.
Before Gao Heyun could say anything more...
The giant statue then pulled Gao Heyun into its embrace.
"Chirp!!!"
The next moment, an intense feeling of weightlessness washed over me.
The colossus takes off!!
at the same time.
The spiritual energy within Cheng Laiyun's body is rapidly disappearing in a strange state.
Controlling the colossus to fly was like pumping water; it consumed his spiritual energy at the speed of light.
Fortunately, though.
There is a Rejuvenation Pill, which can help him quickly replenish his spiritual energy as it is being consumed.
The inflow and outflow created a delicate balance.
The colossus was flying very fast.
At the very least, it's faster than a fourth-rank martial artist's flight speed.
Cheng Laiyun had seen Wu Fu fly.
Liu Yundu was a fourth-rank martial artist with supernatural powers, and Cheng Laiyun had seen him leap into the sky more than once.
But in his memory, Liu Yundu was not as fast as he is now.
"boom!!"
The colossus's flight created a whooshing sound as it rubbed against the air.
It left a long white trail of air behind it, like a sharp sword slicing through the sky, which lingered for a long time.
Gao Heyun was embraced by Cheng Laiyun.
Her lips were pressed together.
Feeling the whistling wind in my ears and that astonishing speed.
And on his body, there were those cold, yet tightly gripping, steel arms.
A strange light flashed in her phoenix eyes.
She did not speak.
She simply pursed her lips and quietly gazed ahead.
In the darkness of night, a dark mountain shadow gradually approached.
After seeing the gradually appearing mountain shadows.
Gao Heyun coughed lightly, looked up, and stared at the purple goggles on the giant statue of Cheng Laiyun.
"arrive."
Her voice was very soft.
But Cheng Laiyun heard it clearly.
Ok?
We've arrived?
He narrowed his eyes, looking at the mountain silhouette ahead, his gaze like that of a hawk, searching for any suspicious spot in the mountains.
Yuxuan Mountain.
In the dilapidated courtyard of the Taoist temple, Xu Jiayin and Ling Ziyun stood back to back, their breathing growing heavier.
It was already dark.
The moon was obscured by dark clouds, with only a few pale rays of moonlight filtering through the gaps and shining on the Taoist temple that had been abandoned for five years.
The yard was overgrown with weeds, some as tall as a person.
The carriage carrying the colossal statue of the fourth rank stood alone in the center of the courtyard, like a silent tombstone.
"We still can't get out—"
Ling Ziyun's voice was hoarse, tinged with despair.
He had tried countless times, exhausting every method he could think of.
They tried to break through the enemy lines, dig through the walls, shout, and even set the mountain on fire.
But that invisible barrier remained firmly anchored above the mountains and forests, unmoved.
Xu Jiayin did not speak.
She just stared in the direction of the courtyard gate, clutching the torch tightly in her hand.
The torch's aura had dimmed considerably, and her spiritual energy was almost depleted.
Behind her was that puppet-like walking corpse, Lin Nianjun, the fifth master uncle of the Mo Sect!
At this moment, Lin Nianjun's face was still numb, and her eyes were still lifeless.
He only understands some simple instructions.
Just like now, Xu Jiayin is making him follow her.
Lin Nianjun followed closely behind her.
"Do you think—will someone come to rescue us?" Ling Ziyun asked nervously. He glanced at the disheveled and numb Lin Nianjun, then looked at Xu Jiayin and asked in a low voice.
"have no idea."
Xu Jiayin looked at the huge barrier and felt a bitter taste in her mouth.
She tried every possible way to communicate with the outside world, but to no avail.
Time passed by, second by second, each second feeling as long as a year.
suddenly!
Xu Jiayin's pupils suddenly contracted!
Ahead, a dark figure appeared out of nowhere.
It was a person wearing a wide black robe.
He was completely covered from head to toe, so his face and figure were not visible.
He just stood there quietly, like a ghost that had suddenly appeared.
"who?!!"
Ling Ziyun saw it too.
His body stiffened abruptly, his eyes narrowed instantly, and he instinctively tightened his grip on the silver needles in his hand.
"hehe."
A hoarse voice came from the man in the black robe.
He lifted his foot and walked step by step into the courtyard.
The steps were slow and steady, each step landing on the weeds with a soft "rustling" sound.
The sound wasn't loud, but it was like the footsteps of death, each one pounding on their hearts.
Xu Jiayin gripped the flying torch tightly, and spiritual power surged into it wildly!
"go!"
Eight metal tentacles rose up simultaneously, like eight venomous snakes, shooting towards the man in black robes!
The man in black robes did not dodge.
He simply raised his hand slightly.
The sage said: Stop.
A beam of cyan light surged from his fingertips, instantly transforming into an invisible barrier in front of him.
The eight flying torch tentacles struck the barrier with a crisp "clang clang clang" sound and were all bounced back!
Xu Jiayin's pupils suddenly contracted!
This method—is it Confucianism?!
Before she could think it through, Ling Ziyun had already made his move!
Seven silver needles shot from different angles toward the major acupoints all over the black-robed man's body, each one coated with an anesthetic powerful enough to knock out a seventh-grade martial artist!
The man in black didn't even look at him.
He simply waved his hand lightly.
The sage said: Disperse.
The silver needles suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then, as if manipulated by an invisible hand, all fell to the ground.
Ling Ziyun was stunned.
The man in black robes did not stop.
He approached step by step, his aura growing stronger and stronger.
The pressure was so intense that Xu Jiayin and Ling Ziyun could barely breathe.
The sage said: Bind.
As soon as the words fell, two beams of azure light emerged from the void, transforming into two ropes of light that instantly bound Xu Jiayin and Ling Ziyun's hands and feet!
The two struggled, but the tighter they struggled, the more they pulled!
The man in black robes walked up to them, lowered his head, and looked down at them.
The moonlight finally shone through the clouds and fell on him.
His face remained hidden in the shadow of his hood, making it difficult to see clearly.
But Xu Jiayin could feel those eyes looking at her.
Like looking at an ant.
"Xu Jiayin————" the man in black robes spoke, his voice hoarse and deep, like sandpaper rubbing against rust.
Xu Jiayin's pupils contracted violently!
That sound—
She felt like she'd heard that name somewhere before!
But time no longer allowed her to think it over.
The man in black robes suddenly raised his arm!
"The sage said: The majesty of a virtuous man should be like a sharp sword."
A cyan light condensed in his palm, growing brighter and brighter until it transformed into a blade of light.
"Chirp!!"
The cyan blade of light made a piercing sound as it rubbed against the air.
It was aimed straight at Xu Jiayin's throat!
Ling Ziyun struggled desperately, but couldn't break free from the light rope!
Getting closer and closer —
Xu Jiayin and Ling Ziyun subconsciously closed their eyes.
"Bang!!!"
A dull thud rang out!
Ok?
It wasn't as painful as I had imagined.
There was no shadow of death.
What happened?
Xu Jiayin suddenly opened her eyes!
Suddenly, a dark golden figure appeared in front of her, blocking her view!
The figure was about twelve feet tall, covered in dull and ugly armor.
"bite!!!"
A purple aura emanated from the giant statue.
But beneath those purple goggles, two blazing lights were burning at that moment!
The Jade Pivot Colossus?!
"Cheng Laiyun!!!"
Xu Jiayin blurted out, tears almost welling up in her eyes.
The black-robed man's attack was firmly blocked by the giant's fist.
The cyan light blade collided with the dark gold armor, sparking dazzling sparks!
Seeing that Xu Jiayin was unharmed.
Cheng Laiyun, inside the giant statue, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the purple light barrier in front of him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
【True Martial Body (Active)】
Physical defense has been greatly enhanced, making one impervious to swords and blades!
When attacked, it reflects some of the damage back to the attacker.
The speed of injury recovery has been greatly improved, with broken bones reconnecting and wounds healing far exceeding that of ordinary people.
This is the first time that the supernatural power of the True Martial Body has been used.
He blocked an attack from the black-robed man, who was at least a fifth-grade Confucian cultivator, with his seventh-grade cultivation.
Strong.
The man in black robes took a step back and raised his head.
His gaze fell on the colossal statue.
They landed behind the colossus again.
There, a figure in black robes descended from the sky and landed steadily on the courtyard wall.
Gao Heyun.
She was dressed in black, with a long sword at her waist, and her phoenix eyes were as cold as frost as she looked down at the black-robed man in the courtyard.
The man in black robes looked at Gao Heyun.
Then he looked at Cheng Laiyun.
Then he spoke.
The voice was very soft, so soft it sounded like a soliloquy, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly: "Hehehe—"
The laughter had a sinister undertone.
"We meet again—"
As that sound rang out.
Cheng Laiyun, Xu Jiayin, and Gao Heyun all frowned!
That voice sounds so familiar!
He tried hard to recall.
Finally, it was as if a ray of inspiration suddenly sprouted!
Cheng Laiyun's pupils suddenly contracted!
He abruptly looked up, staring at the man in black robes, and said, word by word, "Wei Xianjun?!?"
The entire courtyard fell silent instantly.
Xu Jiayin was stunned.
Gao Heyun was also stunned.
For the first time, an expression of disbelief appeared in her ever-cold phoenix eyes.
She stared intently at the man in black robes before her.
Wei Xianjun.
That fifth-rank Confucian scholar disguised as a seventh-rank cultivator?!
That Yong'an magistrate who privately cultivated sacred fields and colluded with Tian Jiude?!
That person, who's already dead?!
They saw him die with their own eyes!!
How could a dead person be here?!
