Chapter 126: Interrogation

Anyway, there should be no one in this world capable of killing him now.

And the only thing Li Musheng cared about was pursuing the transcendence of the martial Dao.

Apart from that, he only did what he believed was right; as for those who thought he was wrong, they naturally could do nothing to him.

At this moment, Cang Cang Yin Yue bit her lip lightly, her gaze turned to Li Musheng, and she held her sword while bowing solemnly, saying:

"The Imperial Prince's grace and deep affection toward Cang Yin Yue are immense; Cang Yin Yue will surely follow the Imperial Prince for this life without leaving or abandoning him, doing her utmost to find the Tianqi Secret Treasury."

Hearing this, Li Musheng raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Cang Cang Yin Yue, and felt that what she said was a bit strange.

However, he did not think much of it; instead, he turned his head to look outside the carriage and suddenly spoke:

"If you have followed for so long, if there are any questions, it is better to discuss them face to face."

Upon hearing these words, Cang Cang Yin Yue's expression immediately changed, and she hurriedly looked outside the carriage.

And just at that moment, a sudden gust of wind blew the carriage curtain, and soon, accompanied by a faint sound of wind, Guan Tianqian's figure quietly appeared inside the carriage.

"Divine Investigator my lord?"

Seeing the other party, Cang Cang Yin Yue showed a look of shock.

However, after recalling what Li Musheng had just said, she immediately realized the situation, her gaze darkened, and she looked at Guan Tianqian warily:

"Divine Investigator my lord has been following us all along; I wonder what your intention is?"

Guan Tianqian exhaled lightly, did not answer Cang Cang Yin Yue's words, but instead clasped his hands and bowed respectfully to Li Musheng, saying:

"This subject greets the Eighth Imperial Prince."

Hearing this, Li Musheng waved his hand, sized the other party up, saw that he looked somewhat similar to Guan Shanxue, and thus roughly understood his identity.

"Speak; what do you want to do?"

Li Musheng asked with a calm expression.

Ever since Guan Tianqian began following him and Cang Cang Yin Yue, he had already sensed it; however, since this person showed no hint of killing intent, he did not pay much attention.

However, now that the matter of the remnants of the Great Qi at Qingshan Tower has been resolved, and the gains were quite abundant, he actually had some leisure to see this Heavenly and Earthly expert who had been following behind him.

And Guan Tianqian, facing Li Musheng's question, had his expression fluctuating for a moment, his emotions hard to settle.

Along this journey, he followed Cang Cang Yin Yue and Li Musheng, entering deep underground; except for the matter of the Green Dragon Elder, which he did not witness,

he secretly followed in the shadows and saw almost everything else; among them, the strength Li Musheng displayed, he had naturally already witnessed with his own eyes.

Along this journey, his shock was no less than that of Bu Chengyang and A Bin.

At first, he also could not believe that this young Eighth Imperial Prince before him possessed such terrifying martial cultivation.

But by now, he had gradually and completely accepted it; after all, the facts were right there before his eyes, and he had seen them with his own eyes; even if he did not believe it, he had no choice.

Moreover, everything he had seen also confirmed some of his previous speculations.

It was just that he did not expect that the true person who acted in the case of the Hou Fu of Marquis Marquis Cangyuan and the murder case of Noble Consort Ji was this Eighth Imperial Prince before him.

Guan Tianqian slightly calmed his mood; with Li Musheng's martial cultivation, he feared that his whereabouts had long been discovered.

Thinking of this, he pondered for a moment, clasped his hands, and said:

"This subject happened to see Investigator Cang traveling with the Imperial Prince, so curiosity arose and I followed..."

However, Li Musheng directly waved his hand to cut him off, saying:

"Since I called you out, it is not to hear your excuses; you are a Divine Investigator of the Six Gates, yet you follow Miss Cang, who is merely a Silver Badge Investigator; I think you must know something."

Speaking thus, Li Musheng slightly narrowed his eyes, gazed at him, and suddenly asked:

"You went to see the case of the Hou Fu of Marquis Marquis Cangyuan, didn't you?"

Hearing this, Guan Tianqian frowned slightly, but still nodded.

Seeing this, Li Musheng rubbed his chin, glanced at Guan Tianqian, and said:

"Then the characters I left behind, you must have seen them as well."

Speaking thus, he leaned back comfortably against the soft pillow behind him, raised his eyebrows, and said:

"If there are any questions you want to ask me, just ask freely."

Upon hearing these words, Guan Tianqian was suddenly stunned.

He unconsciously reached out to touch the cold sweat beading on his forehead, then raised his gaze to look at Li Musheng before him.

He originally wanted to bluff this matter away for now, but this Eighth Imperial Prince before him was obviously not so easy to deal with.

Guan Tianqian stood in place, hesitating and wavering for a while, before lowering his head and speaking:

"This subject actually followed Investigator Cang in order to investigate the case of the Hou Fu of Marquis Marquis Cangyuan..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Musheng nodded lightly and said:

"That is correct; the people in the Hou Fu of Marquis Marquis Cangyuan were all killed by me."

"Also, Noble Consort Ji in the palace was also killed by me; as for the reason, I believe you have already seen it in the Hou Fu of Marquis Marquis Cangyuan."

Speaking thus, Li Musheng gazed quietly at Guan Tianqian and said:

"I understand your purpose; I have already told you the answer; as for what you should do next, I do not care at all."

Upon hearing these words, Guan Tianqian looked up with a mix of shock and doubt, gazing at Li Musheng before him.

It seemed he could hardly believe that the other party had so calmly admitted everything, without even the slightest attempt to conceal it.

However, at this moment, Guan Tianqian suddenly felt a chill down his spine and immediately secretly activated the powerful true qi of his martial Dao within his body to its fullest.

Li Musheng's so frank admission of everything obviously meant he had long planned for Guan Tianqian to be unable to leave this place today.

Even if he knew the truth behind the deaths of Noble Consort Ji and others, he would not be able to take all this information away!

Li Musheng saw all of Guan Tianqian's reactions, but merely said indifferently:

"Since I have told you the answer you wanted, then I also have a question; I would like to hear your answer."

Hearing this, Guan Tianqian tensed his entire body, staring at Li Musheng with extreme wariness.

The Li Musheng before him appeared to have no intention of making a move at all, but he knew the other party could strike at any moment.

However, he could not possibly take the initiative to strike an Imperial Prince, yet to say he should flee immediately...

Whether he could escape or not aside, they were still speaking normally, yet he would turn and run without a word.

As Guan Tianqian, a Divine Constable of the Six Fan Gate, a man of iron bones, he could never commit such a cowardly act under any circumstances.

Having no choice, Guan Tianqian could only grit his teeth and say:

"Please, Your Highness, ask your questions; I, your subject, will surely answer without holding anything back."

Hearing this, Li Musheng nodded slightly and said:

"My question is very simple; you only need to answer me: should those people be killed?"

Upon hearing these words, Guan Tianqian's expression froze; he suddenly raised his head to meet Li Musheng's gaze.

However, he saw no excessive emotion in Li Musheng's eyes, only calmness and indifference.

The other party seemed to care not at all about the question he had just asked.

After a while, Guan Tianqian slowly closed his eyes and then opened them again, taking a deep breath as he said:

"Those people naturally deserve to be killed."

Speaking thus, he clasped his hands in a bow toward Li Musheng and knelt halfway to the ground:

"This matter was my overstepping; I inquired too far."
