62: investigation

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator quickly took out his identity Token and began searching for all information related to Gu Changan.

Suddenly, an enormous spiritual Divine Might enveloped Zhou Yanshan!

Zhou Yanshan was immediately crushed onto the ground, spitting out fresh blood!

"You are courting death!"

"Gu Changan only just entered the Sect two months ago!"

"You claim he killed other Outer Sect Disciples!"

"Look at the traces of battle here!"

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator pointed at the marks on the ground and said, "This is the Sword Qi Technique of the Late Stage Qi Refining!"

"This is the Fireball Technique of the Middle Stage Qi Refining!"

"Tell me, which one belongs to Gu Changan?"

He then walked to the other side, pointing at the scorched marks on the ground and asking, "What about here?"

"What caused this explosion?"

"This must have the power of the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, right?"

"It looks like there were over a dozen people here?"

"Wood Spell, Fire Spell, Ice Spell, Lightning Spell!"

"Tell me, which Spell was released by Gu Changan?"

Zhou Yanshan was completely stunned by the questions, but then he remembered that the Bandit Cultivator who escaped had said Gu Changan was at Qi Refining Level 8.

He had been fooled before.

If that Bandit Cultivator hadn't said it, he wouldn't have believed it!

But how should he explain himself?

Should he tell him that the Cultivator at Qi Refining Level 8 was Gu Changan?

Reaching Qi Refining Level 8 in two months!

This Gu Changan definitely holds an enormous secret!

So, should he reveal it?

Just now, he was consumed only by anger that the group of Bandit Cultivators under him had all died.

His source of wealth was cut off. Who knows when he would be able to gather so many Bandit Cultivators again?

But thinking about it now, an enormous secret was right in front of him. Should he talk?

Zhou Yanshan's eyes flickered, wondering what he should think.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator grew impatient: "I'm asking you a question!"

Zhou Yanshan thought it over and decided that saving his life was the most important thing right now.

The Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator in front of him was not someone to provoke!

"I don't know either!"

"However, my subordinate saw a Cultivator at Qi Refining Level 8 kill two Outer Sect Disciples who were at Middle Stage Qi Refining."

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator said in a deep voice, "Who is that person?"

"Call him over for questioning!"

Zhou Yanshan showed a difficult expression: "Alright!"

But he muttered internally that the subordinate was a Bandit Cultivator.

If he came over to be questioned by the Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he might directly sell him out.

Should he deal with him first?

This is tricky!

If he silenced the only knowledgeable witness, he would also be unable to escape blame!

Before long, the surviving Middle Stage Qi Refining Bandit Cultivator was brought out.

The result was self-evident: the orders to follow Gu Changan were all given by Zhou Yanshan.

However, that Bandit Cultivator did not mention that Zhou Yanshan told them to silence the victims.

He only said that he saw a Cultivator, who was at Qi Refining Layer Three, suddenly transform to Qi Refining Level 8.

And then he counter-killed the other two Middle Stage Qi Refining Cultivators.

The other two Middle Stage Qi Refining Cultivators were wearing the Outer Sect attire of the Tianji Pavilion.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator got the result he wanted. It seemed that Gu Changan had a serious problem.

Entering the Sect for two months, and going from Qi Refining Level Three to Qi Refining Level 8?

This guy definitely has an enormous secret!

However, he needed to find a way to deal with these two witnesses in front of him!

Also, should they conduct a city-wide search?

Since this guy dared to kill fellow disciples, his guts must be extraordinary!

If he was also a clever fellow, then after escaping this time, he probably wouldn't return.

Unless there was some unavoidable reason!

And since he was only part of the Guard Team of Wenxing City, if Gu Changan escaped to other places, he couldn't reach him!

This is difficult!

The duck he had caught had flown away!

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator called over a subordinate from the Guard Squad: "Watch these two closely!"

"Don't let them run!"

"Furthermore, search for Gu Changan with full effort!"

"We must see him alive, or see his corpse!"

"The search area must cover a thousand miles around Wenxing City!"

The subordinate took the squad and went to execute the order.

He also transferred other Defensive Squads from Wenxing City to conduct a large-scale search.

Gu Changan had no idea that he had caused such a huge commotion!

Gu Changan traveled south, plunging deep into the old mountains and forests.

He burrowed near a small mountain and found an animal lair.

Only when he reached the bottom of the cave did he realize it was a Blind Bear.

A single Sword Qi Technique finished it off.

Gu Changan began checking the spoils of war from this trip.

It turned out this group was as poor as ghosts!

Only Lin Mei had one Medium Grade Magical Artifact; the other Middle Stage Qi Refining and Late Stage Qi Refining Bandit Cultivators all had low-grade magical artifacts.

Nine Magical Artifacts were better than nothing, further increasing the foundation of the treasure gathering basin!

The rest was only over 800 Spirit Stones and a few bottles of low-grade qi gathering pill!

Gu Changan took out the identity Tokens of the two Outer Sect Disciples, and then took out his own identity Token.

He wondered if these identity Tokens had a tracking function?

Gu Changan planned to find a way to fake his death.

He searched among the corpses of the Qi Refining Level Three Bandit Cultivators.

He found one whose physique was most similar to his own, and then changed him into his Outer Sect Disciple attire.

He also attached the Token to his waist.

Finally, he thought about how to frame someone else?

Seeing the dead Blind Bear nearby, he felt a little annoyed.

If he hadn't struck so quickly earlier, he could have disguised the scene as an animal attack.

Gu Changan quickly climbed up the mountain under the cover of night, preparing to look for some large wild animals.

Before long, he heard wolf howling.

Gu Changan was overjoyed. Following the sound, he found about 20 wolves in a Mountain Hollow.

Among them were three or four cubs, and about a dozen adult wolves.

Gu Changan followed the mountain edge and tossed out the corpse disguised as himself.

By the way, he also tossed the dozen or so other corpses separately, scattering them throughout the Mountain Hollow.

After finishing all this, he returned the way he came, deliberately snapping some branches to create noise.

Then he changed direction and headed straight south.

During this time, he affixed Supreme Grade Swiftness Talismans to his legs, flying over various bushes, striving not to leave any trace behind.

He sprinted like this until dawn, and Gu Changan didn't know where he had arrived.

He only knew he was heading south.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator had guessed Gu Changan would leave, but he hadn't expected him to be so decisive.

The squad under the Foundation Establishment Cultivator continuously searched within a thousand miles radius of Wenxing City.

The result was the discovery of the dozen or so corpses in the Mountain Hollow.

Among them, three corpses were wearing Outer Sect Disciple attire!

The other eleven corpses were dressed very much like Bandit Cultivators, all wearing various Bamboo Hats.

When the Cultivators of the Guard Team moved these corpses in front of the Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator frowned deeply.

Naturally, he could tell that these dozen or so corpses were all Bandit Cultivators!

But three of them were wearing Outer Sect Disciple attire!

Zhou Yanshan was called out again. Seeing the corpses scattered on the ground, he was so scared his legs trembled!

He had thought Gu Changan was a soft persimmon easily handled, but unexpectedly, he was a Dragon Crossing the River!

He had wiped out all his subordinates!

Zhou Yanshan naturally recognized Lin Mei.

This meant there were now four suspected Outer Sect Disciple corpses!

Although Zhou Yanshan repeatedly assured him that the Qi Refining Level Three Bandit Cultivator was not Gu Changan.
