I Can Deduce Arts by Slaying Demons-Chapter 53: Ye Qingshan’s Suspicions, Lu Xuan Leaves the County Town!
This question, when we reach White Dao Prefecture City, will naturally be understood.
Qingyun County is still too small; in such a small place, Lu Xuan has obtained too little information.
County Office Corpse Room!
Several sturdy wooden beds placed with six corpses.
In front of the wooden board, a few county office coroners are carefully observing these bodies from head to toe.
Inside the corpse room, there are three people standing behind these coroners, namely Ye Qingshan, Chen Shi, and Liang Shanhai.
Not long after, these county office coroners looked as if they had seen a ghost, with expressions of fear on their faces.
The way these people died was too bizarre, completely beyond their imagination.
One older-looking coroner walked up to Ye Qingshan and spoke seriously.
"Sir, these people died the same way; their entire skeletons turned to powder and mixed with the already mangled flesh."
God knows how the killer managed it.
While the skin is intact, they turned the insides of their bodies into mush.
"Hmm, you all may leave now!"
Ye Qingshan replied calmly, having already known the cause of Huang Yangping’s death the moment he saw the body.
To kill a Bone Marrow Refining Realm Great Success martial artist in such a way, it could only be done by a martial artist above the Blood Refining Realm.
In small Qingyun County, aside from him, there is actually another martial artist in the Blood Refining Realm.
And looking at the scene of Huang Yangping’s death, there wasn’t the slightest sign of struggle or resistance.
The opponent is likely more powerful, at least at the Blood Refining Great Success Realm, as formidable as that Profound Bird Guard Li Yanran.
Wait!
Li Yanran?
A flash of inspiration crossed Ye Qingshan’s mind as he looked at the three corpses placed at the edge.
They were the three robust men who mysteriously died in the cell.
The county office and the Huang Family aren’t far apart, so why did the killer travel all the way to the cell just to kill those men?
Ye Qingshan abruptly turned to Chen Shi, gradually saying, "Old Chen, I seem to recall that you mentioned these men were captured for attempting to assassinate the shopkeeper of the Lu Family Pharmacy."
"Yes, these men committed violence at the Lu Family Pharmacy, trying to assassinate the shopkeeper of the Lu Family Pharmacy, so Liang Cheng captured them."
Was the assassination of Lu Jiahe, the Lu Family shopkeeper, without reason?
Is there a mastermind behind it, or is there another reason?
White Lotus Blood Infant, Li Yanran, Lu Family Lu Xuan
Ye Qingshan muttered quietly in his heart, seemingly connecting these pieces together.
No wonder that day Li Yanran didn’t rush him to report the matter of White Lotus Blood Infant to the prefecture.
Instead, she investigated someone he hadn’t cared about, the direct eldest son of the Lu Family, Lu Xuan.
The White Lotus Blood Infant requires several Blood Refining Great Success martial artists to completely annihilate it.
After asking about Lu Xuan, Li Yanran informed him the next day that the White Lotus Blood Infant was dead.
Could this Lu Family’s direct eldest son, Lu Xuan, be a martial artist above the Blood Refining Realm Great Success?
After a moment, Ye Qingshan took a deep look at the silent Liang Shanhai beside him.
"Old Liang, do you have any opinions?"
"These men just acted against the Lu Family shopkeeper yesterday, and then they died miserably at night, quite a coincidence, isn’t it?"
Ye Qingshan’s words, rich in implication, were met with Liang Shanhai’s calm demeanor, revealing no flaws.
"Is that so?"
"Old Ye, perhaps it really is a coincidence, who knows?"
Of course, Liang Shanhai’s mood is less tranquil than his face shows; he might be the first to guess who the killer is.
Yesterday, Lu Xuan’s unabashed display of strength in the warehouse already explained everything.
Xiaoxuan, how far has his Martial Arts Realm progressed?
A martial artist in the Blood Refining Realm?
"I also hope it’s a coincidence, Old Liang!"
"Old Chen, this case is handed over to you."
Ye Qingshan didn’t say much more, stepping towards the door.
He still needs to report Huang Yangping’s death to the Prefect.
A county magistrate slain at his residence—it’s a matter that’s neither minor nor significant.
Huang Yangping supposedly had the support of a certain official in the prefecture over there.
However, Ye Qingshan doesn’t intend to speak of his inner suspicions.
Because he couldn’t stand what Huang Yangping did; if not for some reservations, he would have taken down Huang Yangping long ago.
In Ye Qingshan’s mind, this case is closed; just handle it casually, no need to waste county office resources to uncover the truth.
Yet one thing remains vividly etched in Ye Qingshan’s mind.
Lu Family’s direct eldest son Lu Xuan, it seems he needs to watch over the Lu Family a bit more in the future.
A twenty-year-old martial artist in the Blood Refining Realm—any fool can see what this implies.
In the following days.
The entire county learned of the county magistrate Huang Yangping’s death, and countless forces were shocked.
A stone stirs up a thousand waves!
"That beast Huang Yangping is actually dead?"
"Which expert did this?"
"Jia Family Pharmacy Shopkeeper Jia Sheng is dead?"
"That beast sold fake medicines that killed my child back then; I want his entire family to pay the price."
......
Huang Yangping, a native of Qingyun County, relied on his position as county magistrate to exploit the people.
He also sheltered family members who committed evil deeds, long ago forming countless unresolved grudges in secret.
In addition, after Huang Yangping’s death, that juicy piece of the Huang Family became lusted after by many forces in the county, eager to divide and consume it.
Within a few days, the descendants of the Huang Family and Jia Family faced countless assassinations.
Under this frenzied assault, the male members of the Huang Family and Jia Family were annihilated, their bloodlines erased, leaving only some useless women.
Thus, the affluent Huang Family and Jia Family vanished from Qingyun County.
The Lu Family!
In the Lu Family hall, Lu Jiahe, whose injuries have improved, sat in the main seat, eyes closed and meditative; two young men sat on chairs on either side.
Until outside the hall, a tall and upright figure stepped in through the door.
Only then did Lu Jiahe slowly open those deep eyes, the figure reflected in his pupils’ gaze.
"Xuan, you’re here!"
"Yes, Father!"
Lu Xuan dressed in a dark suit, with resolute eyes, looked at the somewhat aged man ahead.
"I always knew this day would come."
"Xuan, remember, be cautious. The outside world is full of treacherous hearts."
Lu Jiahe looked at Lu Xuan, eyes filled with pride, for Lu Xuan was his most valued and proud son.
"Alright!"
"Father, I’ll head to White Dao Prefecture City and return in less than half a year."
"Yun Qing, Yun’an."
"Take care of Father for me, I’ll be back soon."
The young people on either side of the hall promptly stood up, looking at Lu Xuan with eyes full of respect.
"Yes, big brother!"
