Chapter 423
After Chen Ang and the other left, the Shangguan family head shattered the teacup in his hand and instructed, "What's going on? Is Shangguan Lei so careless in doing things? This Martial Song Academy also doesn't give any face at all."
"Uh, there is indeed no way, family head. According to the current situation, Shangguan Lei's side is exposed. Do you think we can deal with all the related relatives?"
"Great Elder, you are fully responsible for this matter. I don't want to see anyone who has any connection with Shangguan Lei appear in front of me. Do you hear me?"
"Anyone who has a connection cannot be let go. Announce to the outside world that they colluded with evil cultivators, and all family members will be beheaded to warn the world. This is the family's attitude."
"Tell the evil cultivators to be stable for these two days. Pay a little attention and don't expose too much. When it really comes to the critical moment, I still have to wipe their asses. It's really not worth it."
After the two left, Wan Wan Shitong couldn't help but say, "Boss, I feel the Shangguan family has no problems."
"Indeed, from the tone and performance just now, it was sincere. But the problem is, could it be that they really don't know about this matter? Logically, Shangguan Lei is the only genius of the Shangguan family. Doing this is indeed somewhat inappropriate."
"Alas, Boss, the matter has already happened. Being entangled like this is of no use. We must have other plans."
The two returned to the Martial Song Academy and told everything about the Shangguan family. Teacher Xing Tian laughed and said, "According to the current situation, the Shangguan family should not have much threat. I also suspected the matter of Shangguan Canyue, but after observing carefully for a period of time, I didn't find anything. Could it really be a conspiracy of the evil cultivators? I can't say for sure."
"I have already notified the Old Dean that I want to check the students in the Sin Prison. Shangguan Lei, a low-tier Spirit Realm, went out, and there were special people to protect him. Even so, he could still be connected with evil cultivators for no reason. I will never believe it."
"There are many suspicious points in this matter. Since we can't get any news from the Shangguan family, let's find a way to see if we can ask something from that evil cultivator head."
The few walked to the evil cultivator head and laughed, "Today I just want to give you a chance to see if there is any possibility of turning over a new leaf. I know that evil cultivators are people who don't fear death, but you must consider carefully. Life is only once."
"Haha, we are a group of dirty rats. No matter how you try to persuade me, I won't say anything. No matter how you want to torture me, I can explain. I can bear it."
Seeing that the evil cultivator head was so obsessed, keeping him was of no use. Teacher Xing Tian couldn't help but say, "Kill him, give him a quick death. We definitely won't get any information. They have all been brainwashed and controlled to death long ago."
"I believe Shangguan Lei should be able to give some information. Let's go and see what he says."
Seeing Chen Ang arrive, he said, "Why, are you here to see my joke? There's no need for that."
"No, no. Today I just want to ask Genius Shangguan, what are your thoughts now? I just asked the Shangguan family head, and he said this matter seems to have nothing to do with them. So rest assured, you won't implicate your family. The Martial Song Academy's policy is very conscientious."
"I'll give you one last chance. When did you collude with the evil cultivators? What is the usual method? That is a group of crazy guys. Shielding them won't do you any good."
Hearing this, Shangguan Lei said, "You are a genius, and I am also a genius. Everyone belongs to the same status. Why can you possess so many cultivation resources and have such a powerful master's help?"
"I climbed up step by step. Besides the Shangguan family giving me a weapon, it didn't have much use. For someone like you who is lucky, I am very unwilling in my heart."
Wan Wan Shitong explained, "That's right. This person Shangguan Lei belongs to a genius with extremely formidable talent but didn't get much support from the family. Otherwise, why has his cultivation always been low-tier Spirit Realm? His peers' realms are much higher than his. The gap in resources is too large."
"That weapon was obtained because his performance was too good. It is possible that the evil cultivators helped secretly and gave support, which is why he has his current achievements. It's quite pitiful."
Being poked in the pain point, he hurriedly said, "Kill me. Keeping me is of no use. If you let me live, I will definitely turn the Martial Song Academy upside down and never have a peaceful day."
Teacher Xing Tian couldn't help but say, "Disciple, you were once a genius. Kill Shangguan Lei. We can't get any clues. He has also contributed to the Martial Song Academy, but it's a pity he went astray. Death is the best destination."
448: Conducting Investigation
Chen Ang took the lead and said, "Teacher Xing Tian, I think we can carefully screen all the geniuses in the Sin Prison who are talented but not appreciated by various families. If I guessed correctly, the number of evil cultivators in the entire Martial Song Academy is far more than this."
"Think about it, people like Shangguan Lei are the main targets, let alone others. If you want to survive in the Sin Prison, besides having enough formidable strength, colluding with evil cultivators and the Demon Race is also a very good means of self-preservation."
Teacher Xing Tian nodded and laughed, "Smart, you are indeed a smart brat. Now go and find a way to verify it. Rest assured, there will be results soon. You two, start acting."
Chen Ang and Wan Wan Shitong spent three days and finally organized the information. In the end, there were three suspects, and these three suspects had a great possibility.
Handing over the information of the three, Teacher Xing Tian instructed, "Rest assured, if it is really determined, go ahead and do it boldly. With your master here, no matter what problems arise, I can help solve them."
"Even if they are not evil cultivators, at worst, we can apologize. In the current situation, it is too dangerous. It is better to kill by mistake than to let one go."
According to the information, the two first found a senior named Li Jian, a high-tier Spirit Realm cultivation. He was very lucky and could dodge the Demon Race's attacks every time, which made people very suspicious.
Lin Ye and Wan Wan Shitong went in and said the first sentence, "Senior Li Jian, we want to investigate those who returned from the Sin Prison recently. This matter has been approved by Teacher Xing Tian. I hope you can cooperate."
He said incredulously, "What? You actually think I am an evil cultivator? I have fought so many times in the Sin Prison for the Martial Song Academy. Isn't this somewhat inappropriate?"
"No, Senior. The problem is very simple. Every time you attack among the Demon Race, you can dodge easily. Logically, your strength is not considered formidable in the Sin Prison. Wanting to run away is very difficult."
"If you are unwilling to tell the secret, don't blame us for finding trouble. The matter of Shangguan Lei recently has been making a lot of noise. Don't force the teachers to interrogate you strictly."
Li Jian said helplessly, "I can tell you about this matter, but you must remember to make a Heavenly Dao oath not to reveal it to others. It counts as my secret weapon."
After saying this, he took out a space divine artifact from his body and said, "This is my secret trump card. When encountering any danger, I can enter this space divine artifact to dodge the Demon Race's attacks."
"It is a very rare divine artifact obtained in the Sin Prison. It is particularly useful and very flexible. It has great help in escaping death in the Sin Prison."
Wan Wan Shitong carefully checked the weapon and confirmed there were no problems, "I am very sorry for the reckless behavior just now. This period is a sensitive period. I hope you can understand."
Li Jian didn't give the two any good looks and invited them out. He didn't want to see these two for the time being; he was particularly annoyed.
"No problem, Boss. Li Jian's weapon is a space-type divine artifact from the ancient times. It is indeed able to hide one's own information and bring it to another space, and come out when there is no danger. It is a good treasure that is hard to find."
"We also made a Heavenly Dao oath, which shows that this person is extremely cautious. Trump cards can be understood. The suspicion can be excluded."
Next, they arrived at Han Li's room. At the moment of seeing Han Li, Lin Ye felt that something was not simple and said, "You should also know about the recent sneak attacks by evil cultivators, right? Senior Han Li, I want to ask some questions. I hope you can cooperate with the investigation."
"Senior Han Li, all these years, you have experienced several wars, large and small, in the Sin Prison. Your strength has reached the high-tier Spirit Bridge Realm and is about to break through to the peak."
"I heard that once, under the pursuit of dozens of Demon Race powerhouses, you were still able to escape safely. You broke through from low-tier to mid-tier directly. I hope you can tell the whole story."
Han Li said sternly, "This matter involves privacy. Unless you can get relevant evidence, I will not tell you."
Chen Ang took out the token handed over by Teacher Xing Tian and instructed, "This is the Acting Dean's token. I believe this thing should be able to verify our identity, right?"
"Actually, after being pursued by the Demon Race that time, I fell into a mountain cliff. There happened to be precious medicinal herbs. When I was about to die, I took that medicinal herb, and my strength was greatly improved, breaking through to the mid-tier Spirit Realm in one fell swoop."
"This matter has been investigated by the Sin Prison side, and there are no problems. If you are not convinced, there is no way. I have said everything I can say. Believe it or not."
Seeing that the situation was not right, he laughed, "Wronged, completely wronged. Rest assured, Senior. This matter was somewhat reckless. I will definitely apologize in the future."
These two had no problems. At least the third one was the most terrifying. One had to know that Li Qiang's experience was not ordinary. At least in the Sin Prison, he had been tempered for fifty full years from the low-tier Spirit Realm without breaking through any level.
He had always been mediocre and had no outstanding combat records. The number of Demon Race he killed was very small, and he was particularly plain. But when Chen Ang saw Chen Qiang, he discovered different places.
Li Qiang's cultivation was definitely not low-tier Spirit Realm; at least it reached high-tier Spirit Realm. Why hide his cultivation? This point was very worthy of suspicion.
Chen Ang said sternly, "Senior, can you explain your cultivation to me? Staying in the Sin Prison for so long without breaking through is completely impossible."
Li Qiang laughed, "Junior, are you managing a bit too broadly? Whether I break through or not, what does it have to do with you? Logically, ordinary people staying in the Sin Prison for fifty years will have changes in their cultivation."
"Saying that there is no breakthrough at all, no one believes it. There must be other arrangements. Whether it is hidden or not, won't I know if I try?"
After saying this, Chen Ang picked up the Array-Breaking Qilin Spear and stabbed Li Qiang. Originally, Li Qiang was prepared to use a low-tier attack to resist, but found that the strength was formidable and could only expose his cultivation.
He erupted with high-tier Spirit Realm cultivation and laughed, "Good junior of the Martial Song Academy, you were actually able to discover my concealment. But so what? I will definitely not let you two go out. I want to see what you two can do."
"Two low-tier Spirit Realm, preparing to attack a high-tier, you are simply tired of living. If I don't kill you two, it will be hard to resolve my hatred."
Just as he was preparing to kill, Teacher Xing Tian rushed over and said, "There really is a mole. Li Qiang, the Martial Song Academy has not treated you badly. How can you do this? Don't confess honestly yet. Be careful of being torn to pieces. My temper is somewhat bad. Confess honestly."
449: Encountering Ambush
Li Qiang didn't say anything, which made Chen Ang very angry. It was not easy to catch some moles; he must ask something about this.
Helpless, Wan Wan Shitong said, "Why don't we use the soul-searching method? It will cause some impact on the spirit. It is the most stable method at present."
Teacher Xing Tian began to search the soul carefully. Entering the spiritual world, the power of the restriction was too great, and he was interrupted, spitting out blood and getting injured.
He said, "The restriction in Li Qiang's spiritual sea was formulated by a Demon Race powerhouse. The strength is very formidable. I am not an opponent."
"Forget it. Report this situation to the Old Dean and Lord Su Su Xian and let the two decide this matter. It is becoming more and more unstable. These people have great ambitions."
"Being able to deal with this mole Li Qiang, the Martial Song Academy is very grateful to you two. I will find a way to apply for credit to the Dean and provide some rewards and cultivation resources. This is the greatest effort I can do so far."
"Master, rest assured. This kind of matter is a small effort. I am just curious, the Demon Race and evil cultivators should be particularly angry, right? Besides the two moles, I also discovered dozens of others, all of whom are moles of the Demon Race. I can see that they are pervasive."
"I believe they will soon suffer retaliation from the Demon Race and evil cultivators. How is it? You brat, are you mentally prepared?"
The Evil King was in a very bad mood. One had to know that the powerhouses on the Demon Race side had just made suggestions, and they were particularly dissatisfied with the recent performance, so many genius moles.
Originally, they were prepared to exert the greatest use when fighting with the Martial Song Academy, but they didn't expect such a thing, which was counterproductive. It was indeed somewhat troublesome.
It seems they must find a way to deal with it. The Demon Race powerhouse issued an ultimatum, letting the evil cultivators kill Chen Ang within three days. If they couldn't get Chen Ang's head, they must apologize with death.
The Evil King who received the news was particularly shocked. Having worked diligently for these years, he actually got such an ending, which was particularly unwilling.
The Evil Heart on the side said, "Master, we must make a decision. If we continue like this, the future of the evil cultivators will definitely be abandoned at any time."
The Evil King sighed, "Evil cultivators and the Demon Race belong to the superior and inferior. They are supported by the Demon Race. They haven't treated evil cultivators as human beings in recent years. If this continues, it won't work. We must find a way to solve it."
"Hehe, Master, wanting to kill Chen Ang is very simple. Find a way to use the loopholes and just send a few powerhouses, right?"
"Alas, you think somewhat too simply. Core geniuses absolutely cannot be moved. You should be clear about Chen Ang's strength. In the Spirit Realm, how many people are his opponents?"
"According to the current strength, Chen Ang belongs to the invincible existence among the low-tier Spirit Realm. The cultivation resources within the evil cultivators are limited. Fighting alone is completely impossible."
"There is a good way. We can choose to borrow a knife to kill. Plan the conflict between the Demonic Beast Forest and the Martial Song Academy. The more chaotic the situation, the more favorable it is."
The Evil King hurriedly shook his head and said, "No. That bunch of guys in the Demonic Beast Forest are completely unreliable, have no blood, and are easily tamed by the Martial Song Academy. Don't use those soft-boned guys."
"If it really doesn't work, we can carry out an ambush and use numbers to suppress Chen Ang's action to win."
The Evil King said sternly, "If it really is like this, then we must win by numbers. Dozens of low-tier Spirit Realm attack at the same time. I believe that no matter how formidable Chen Ang's strength is, they are all struggling on the verge of death."
"Master, good idea. Remember this, don't let those with high cultivation take action. Under the condition of the same cultivation, using human sea tactics to win is quite good."
"Good. This time lead ten low-tier Spirit Realm. Still the old rules, don't show your head, let them attack Chen Ang. Remember, whether you win or lose, you must come back alive."
"Evil Heart, you are the future successor cultivated by Master. You must not have any accidents. It is not worth wasting your life for a Chen Ang. Do you hear me?"
Evil Heart nodded and said seriously, "Master, rest assured. This time the disciple will control the impulse. Since the last incident, I have often reflected and will definitely not show my head, even if those evil cultivators all die."
Evil Heart's strength reached the mid-tier Spirit Realm, and there was a certain gap with Chen Ang, but he believed that he would soon be able to make up for it and would personally defeat the genius in the future.
