This cultivation world was never serious from the start.

"Huh?" Zhao Ren was taken aback.

Zhao Li and the head of the Zhao family stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

Su Zhe raised an eyebrow slightly. "What were you doing around 1:45 AM three days ago?"

"I'm handing over poison that can kill Foundation Establishment cultivators to my accomplices!" Zhao Ren said calmly.

Su Zhe, with one hand on his chin, asked seriously, "So, you have an alibi?"

"What alibi? I led the way the whole time! I was there the whole time!" Zhao Ren said angrily.

"You were there? So you're an eyewitness? Did you see clearly what happened?" Su Zhe felt he was getting closer and closer to the truth!

Nearby, several people had already completely grasped the truth.

Chen Feng rubbed his forehead. This was more than just being completely ignorant!

Under Su Zhe's patient questioning, the case, which had seemed to be clear, appeared to become shrouded in mystery once again...

"I saw it clearly. After the patriarch ingested my poison, he bled from all seven orifices and died. Before he died, he also killed my inside man!"

Zhao Ren sneered and spoke arrogantly.

Seeing that Su Zhe was about to speak, Chen Feng quickly covered Su Zhe's mouth.

We can't let him ask any more questions, otherwise the case will become even more complicated!

  

Su Zhe's eyes widened; he was just about to use a trick to deceive his opponent!

"Why did you kill your ancestor?" Chen Feng asked directly.

"Of course, it's for revenge!" Zhao Ren sneered. "That old man took me in, ostensibly to train me, but actually to use me as a guinea pig! Every pill the Zhao family has launched in the last ten years has been tested on me hundreds of times before being released!"

As Zhao Ren spoke, he ripped open his shirt, revealing the skin underneath.

Beneath the brocade top lay a gruesome mass of flesh and blood!

Like a wound that had been torn open and was in the recovery period, dark red scabs covered Zhao Ren's chest and back, looking ferocious and terrifying.

"You…" The Zhao family patriarch was stunned, never expecting Zhao Ren to look like this under his clothes. "Aren't you someone who pays the most attention to your appearance? How did you become like this?"

"Hehe! This is the poison that has accumulated in my body for ten years! Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator can't withstand the surging toxins! Hahahaha!" Zhao Ren laughed, tears streaming down his face.

Zhao Ren suddenly looked at Su Zhe and Chen Feng, his face full of composure, "I know that a murder in Tianwen City will definitely attract the attention of Tianwen Sect disciples, but I don't care. I don't care about anything anymore!"

After saying that, the hideous wounds on Zhao Ren's body began to writhe, and layers of dark red flesh expanded, as if it had a mind of its own and devoured normal flesh.

Seeing this, the Zhao family patriarch was both furious and somewhat disheartened, lamenting, "How could it have come to this? How could it have come to this!"

Zhao Ren's aura fluctuated intensely, and an unusual flush appeared on his face, indicating that the toxins in his body were erupting.

If we don't intervene, he'll probably bleed from all seven orifices and die!

Seeing that the other person was about to die, Su Zhe quickly stepped forward to stop him.

The Zhao family patriarch sighed, trying to stop Su Zhe, "Forget it, Zhao Ren has always been obsessed with appearances. Now that he's like this, let him be free..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Zhao family patriarch was shoved away by Su Zhe.

"What are you thinking! We accepted a mission! How are we supposed to complete the mission if both of us die!"

Su Zhe was so anxious he felt like he could fly away.

He rushed to Zhao Ren in two steps, forcibly pried open Zhao Ren's mouth, and stuffed the antidote into Zhao Ren's mouth!

I have to say, Senior Brother Danfeng's pills are really powerful!

The moment the invulnerability pill entered his mouth, colorful smoke rose from Zhao Ren's body.

Su Zhe knew that every type of smoke represented a type of poison!

At this moment, there were at least hundreds or thousands of different colors of mist above Zhao Ren's head!

Even Su Zhe couldn't help but sigh, the Zhao family patriarch was truly using Zhao Ren as a guinea pig.

Zhao Ren's revenge was not without reason; even if placed in the context of Hongguo, it would be a thrilling short drama about the revenge of the real and fake young masters...

Soon, the multicolored smoke above Zhao Ren's head gradually dissipated, and he raised his head, his forehead scrolling wildly like a barrage of bullets.

[Heartbreak grass, arsenic, mercury, antihistamines...]

The names scrolled by frantically, at an alarming speed.

At this moment, Zhao Ren's face was as black as ink.

Zhao Ren, who had failed in his suicide attempt, raised his head with a look of terror on his face.

"I'm not dead? Why is it so dark? I can only see a little bit of things..." Zhao Ren said, his voice filled with panic.

Su Zhe was very kind-hearted. He quickly took out a crystal mirror from his storage ring and placed it in front of Zhao Ren.

Zhao Ren looked up and stared blankly for a long time.

"No! Why won't you let me die!"

When Zhao Ren came to his senses, he was terrified. He had always valued his temperament and appearance, and wanted to use his appearance to cover up the ugly exterior beneath his brocade.

But now, he's even uglier.

"You can't die, your mission isn't over yet," Su Zhe kindly reminded the other party.

"Mission?" Zhao Ren's fear deepened.

After the initial courage to face death wore off, Zhao Ren finally felt fear.

He killed his own Foundation Establishment ancestor. No matter the circumstances, he will inevitably be hunted down by the Zhao family and suffer a fate worse than death!

Moreover, now that the Heavenly Seeking Sect has also entered the fray!

Who in the entire cultivation world doesn't know that the Heavenly Questioning Sect is the leader of the righteous path and the most intolerant of any challenge to the order!

He has survived, but what awaits him is the judgment of the Tianwen Sect, followed by the Zhao family's endless pursuit and even torture!

Su Zhe was already rubbing his hands together and walked towards Zhao Ren, eager to get started.

There was a reason for this incident. From Su Zhe's own moral perspective, Zhao Ren's crime did not warrant death, but how to determine the specific punishment was not his business.

"Zhao Ren, surrender now, and the Heavenly Questioning Sect will give you justice." Chen Feng also stepped forward.

The two men, one on the left and one on the right, inadvertently blocked Zhao Ren's escape route.

Although the Zhao family patriarch said he would give Zhao Ren a quick death, he quietly walked up behind Zhao Ren.

The three men completely surrounded Zhao Ren. Whether Zhao Ren wanted to fight or escape, he had to face the combined attack of the three men at the same time.

It would be too difficult for a cultivator in the mid-stage of Qi Refining to escape from the encirclement of three cultivators in the mid-to-late stages of Qi Refining!

Just when he was in despair, Zhao Ren suddenly tore off the scabs on his body, dipped his hand in dark red blood, and drew a huge six-pointed star in the air!

"This disciple is in grave danger! Please, senior, grant me your assistance!" Zhao Ren said hastily.

Su Zhe's eyes lit up.

Goodness, there really is a big fish in the hole?

If it's a simple investigation task, they'll get at most a few dozen sect contribution points.

However, if another side quest is opened, their contribution will at least double!

Just as Su Zhe was pondering this, a banner shrouded in black mist suddenly appeared in the void in front of them!
