"Shentu Tuo is a key point!"

Lin Xiao explained, "He must know a lot of things, and it doesn't seem like he simply took on a murder job."

"Since it was just a regular murder deal, he had no reason to send Chen Shanyin to his death."

“Shen Tu Tuo didn’t know your strength, that you were able to kill Chen Shan Yin,” Ji Yun You said.

"That's true, but when Chen Shanyin died, Shen Tuo didn't show up, not even to try to save him..."

Lin Xiao continued.

Ji Yunyou fell silent.

Upon closer reflection, that is indeed the case.

Even if Shen Tuo is cold-blooded, Chen Shanyin is no ordinary person. He is the Black Heaven Holy Son, which is enough to make Shen Tuo take him seriously.

However, Shen Tuo didn't care about Chen Shanyin's death at all.

"Second Master must have noticed it too! When someone was dying, Shen Tu Tuo became unusually furious and tried to stop me."

Lin Xiao said.

"Song Zhiyu!"

Ji Yunyou blurted it out.

Chapter 464 Qingqiu Demon Realm

Many things seem fine on the surface.

However, upon closer examination, there are quite a few suspicious points.

When Lin Xiao killed Song Zhiyu, Shen Tu Tuo was extremely furious, and the system directly rewarded him with 10 kill points.

Moreover, Shen Tu Tuo appeared just as Song Zhiyu was in danger.

At the time, it seemed that Shen Tuo simply disliked Lin Xiao's arrogance and recklessness.

But if that were all, Shen Tu Tuo wouldn't have been so furious.

Why is Shen Tuo so concerned about Song Zhiyu's life or death?

"Song Zhiyu is the Holy Son of Shenluo, while Chen Shanyin should be the Holy Son of Heitian!"

Ji Yunyou murmured.

"I'm also completely baffled by this matter, which is why I haven't told my second master about it."

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "But we can make an assumption. Let's assume there really is a mastermind behind this, and let's assume that Shen Tu Tuo's relationship with that mastermind is not ordinary."

Ji Yunyou said, "If that's the case, then Song Zhiyu might be a key figure."

"Knowing the relationship between Song Zhiyu and Shen Tuo will make it possible to find the mastermind behind it all."

Lin Xiao nodded.

This is a bit of a brain teaser.

The main problem is that the mastermind behind it all is hiding too well.

Even now, he can't be sure if there really is a mastermind behind it all.

But we must prevent it.

If it really is true, given the other party's cunning, you might be played to death without even knowing how.

Powerful military force is not scary.

What's terrifying is the human heart.

The human heart is unpredictable; it can kill without leaving a trace.

"Use the Tongxuan Treasure Mirror to contact your master and ask her to find an opportunity to interrogate Shentu Tuo."

Ji Yunyou suggested.

Soon, both she and Lin Xiao took out the Tongxuan Treasure Mirror.

Both of them were trying to contact Empress Liuli.

After a while, they finally made contact with Empress Liuli.

Ji Yunyou quickly relayed Lin Xiao's guess.

"Lin Xiao, you're smarter than I thought, that you could guess all this."

Empress Liuli's extremely pleasant voice rang out, "You can be more confident, there is indeed a mastermind behind it all."

Clearly, Empress Liuli had also thought of these things.

And they were able to be certain of the existence of the mastermind behind it all.

"How can the head chef be so sure?"

Lin Xiao asked curiously.

"Firstly, it was my intuition; secondly, I had a conversation with Li Tianzong."

Empress Liuli replied.

Lin Xiao could imagine that the so-called communication between Empress Liuli was mostly not very friendly.

“Shen Tu Tuo escaped with serious injuries. I didn’t have a chance to interrogate him, but I could ask Li Tianzong. Li Tianzong admitted that he didn’t hire Shen Tu Tuo.”

Empress Liuli continued.

If it wasn't Li Tianzong who hired the assassin, then there must have been someone else who asked Shen Tuo to kill Lin Xiao.

And that person was the mastermind behind it all.

Song Zhiyu clearly did not have that qualification.

With his abilities, he simply couldn't persuade Shen Tuo to come.

Only the strongest will be valued by Shen Tuo, who will then take action to kill them.

However, Lin Xiao has offended too many supreme experts.

Upon closer reflection, the holy masters of the seven holy lands could all be suspects...

"Since the other party has asked Shen Tuo to take action, they must be extremely determined to kill you. They won't give up, so there's no need to rush. Just wait for them to reveal their true colors."

Empress Liuli comforted her.

Her voice seemed to carry a hint of murderous intent.

Clearly, the mastermind behind the scheme against Lin Xiao has angered the Empress.

"Ok!"

Lin Xiao nodded.

Shortly after, he ended his call with Empress Liuli.

"Let's go!"

This time, Ji Yunyou did not stop him again. Since the mastermind really existed, she was naturally worried about leaving Lin Xiao alone in the Heavenly Emperor City.

When they set off, Ji Yunyou took Youqing and Shen Qingyun with her.

The four of them made no attempt to conceal their whereabouts and swaggered out of the city.

This was done to let the mastermind know that Lin Xiao had left Miaoyin Pavilion.

The Miaoyin Pavilion itself has considerable defensive capabilities.

It was a bustling place, a notorious den of extravagance.

In addition, there's Yun Kongfan's Imperial Guard Legion.

The mastermind behind it all wouldn't have gone to such lengths to take action against Miaoyin Pavilion.

The Imperial Guard Legion was the happiest when the four left.

Xu Jiang and Xu Wei, leading a large number of elite Imperial Guards, escorted Lin Xiao to protect the city, and they were extremely happy...

However, as Lin Xiao walked out of the city gate, he turned back and said, "Please take care, commanders. I am just accompanying my second master on a trip to the outskirts of the city."

"I expect to be back today."

Xu Jiang: "..."

Xu Wei: "..."

The two brothers looked at each other, and both saw the other's face twitching.

……

……

A phoenix carriage took off into the air.

The interior of the phoenix carriage was very spacious, luxurious and elegant.

After leaving the city, the four of them switched to flying in their phoenix chariots to travel.

"Pfft! Young master, you're too wicked."

"I imagine the two Commanders Xu are feeling particularly complicated right now."

Youqing and Shen Qingyun laughed so hard they were shaking.

The phoenix carriage was filled with spring colors. Lying in Youqing's arms, with his hands stroking Shen Qingyun's delicate hands, Lin Xiao could only control himself.

He vaguely sensed that Ji Yunyou's problem was related to her bathing and changing clothes last night.

This secretly pleased Lin Xiao.

His biggest worry was that Ji Yunyou was actually resisting him.

Now that the issue is not related to cultivation, it's much simpler.

Once the problems in cultivation are solved, wouldn't it be very close to enjoying nine times the happiness of the second master?

The Qingqiu Demon Realm is not particularly far from the Heavenly Emperor City.

The Phoenix Chariot also flies at an extremely fast speed.
