Chapter 35
Is Mr. Su finally going to perform the Art of Communicating with the Nether again?
Hearing this, Han Han Jiuli couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
It was not his first time witnessing Su Xuan perform the Art of Communicating with the Nether.
In fact, the very first time, it was they who brought back the soil from the Broken Soul Valley. When it came to witnessing the Art of Communicating with the Nether, he was even earlier than those ministers in the court.
It was just that he didn't know if he would be able to see ghosts and gods, to see Liu Yi’s ghost, when Mr. Su performed the Art of Communicating with the Nether this time.
He had heard that during the summoning in the court, many people had personally witnessed the appearance of ghosts and gods.
And during the first summoning, although there were gusts of gloomy wind, they had not witnessed the appearance of ghosts and gods.
Upon hearing Su Xuan’s words, Lady Hu’s expression also became complex.
If it could be said that in the past, she had no love for Liu Yi, but held a sense of gratitude,
after all, when she and her sister were in the most desperate times, it was Liu Yi who extended a helping hand to her.
Then now, after seeing this box, many speculations arose in her heart, and she also had some new views on the disaster that caused her family to be broken and killed back then.
Could Liu Yi’s ghost really appear?
If it appears, I must ask him to make it clear!
Lady Hu thought so.
Su Xuan did not know Lady Hu’s inner drama. He muttered words and performed the "Communicating with the Nether" technique. In an instant, gusts of gloomy wind rose in the already dimly lit secret room.
As the gloomy wind whistled, faint smoke appeared around Su Xuan’s body. The smoke swirled, and it seemed as if an illusory figure was condensing from it.
Seeing this figure, Han Han Jiuli and Lady Hu were both shocked, waiting for this illusory figure to condense into shape completely.
Just as they were waiting, this illusory figure suddenly got stuck.
It remained in an illusory, blurred state.
"This..."
Han Han Jiuli was a bit disappointed; after all, he still couldn't see the appearance of the ghost god.
Lady Hu’s eyes also flickered. So, was it impossible to ask Liu Yi about what happened back then?
They each thought to themselves.
Su Xuan pinched a hand seal, and then, only heard him say: "So that’s how it is, I understand."
So, what did you understand again?
You clearly didn't ask anything!
Han Han Jiuli became more and more puzzled, but after thinking about it, he could understand, because according to Su Xuan’s explanation during the summoning in the court, people have human language, and ghosts have ghost language. It is quite difficult for people and ghosts to communicate; they either have to eat mud or communicate through the method of burning books and praying.
However, Mr. Su was an expert after all. Since he was skilled in the Art of Communicating with the Nether, he must have other ways to communicate with ghosts and gods.
No one knew what Su Xuan and Liu Yi’s ghost had talked about. Then, they saw him flick his sleeves again, the gloomy wind dissipated, and the illusory figure also disappeared.
"Is it over?" Han Han Jiuli looked at Su Xuan and asked softly.
"It’s over, I already know who the murderer is!" Su Xuan said lightly.
Although Han Han Jiuli was curious, he was still excited to learn that Su Xuan had solved the case. He was worthy of being an expert, an Immortal Master; his methods were truly different.
Su Xuan did not have any self-satisfaction on his face. He glanced at Lady Hu. "Please mourn, Lady!"
After saying this, he didn't pay any attention to this widow who had recently lost her husband, and took Han Han Jiuli and left.
The King of Han soon learned that Su Xuan had made a trip to Left Left Sima Liu Yi’s mansion and solved the case of Left Left Sima Liu Yi’s murder.
He immediately convened a court meeting.
As soon as the court meeting started, Ji Ji Wuye questioned Su Xuan: "I heard that Mr. Su has already solved this case. I wonder what kind of madman was so bold as to kill the Left Left Sima?"
Left Left Sima Liu Yi was his capable subordinate.
He was an important official in charge of military administration.
He cared very much about Liu Yi’s death.
Chancellor Zhang Kaidi also looked at Su Xuan and said: "I wish to hear Mr. Su’s words!"
When he said this, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
This time, Liu Yi’s death was the reason he recommended Su Xuan to investigate.
Because he wanted to use this matter to continue testing Su Xuan.
Although earlier, Su Xuan had displayed the Art of Communicating with the Nether in the court and had the ghost god point out Emerald Tiger.
But for Zhang Kaidi, who had always respected ghosts and gods but kept them at a distance, although he had seen the ghost god with his own eyes, it was impossible for him to believe it completely; deep down, he still had some doubts.
Liu Yi’s death was a good opportunity to continue testing Su Xuan’s skills.
The King of Han also urged Su Xuan to tell the truth.
Su Xuan’s expression was calm, and he said slowly: "Before revealing the murderer who killed the Left Left Sima, I first want to tell a story."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, many people in the court looked at each other, surprised and uncertain.
However, they still let Su Xuan continue.
Anyway, they had plenty of time, and listening to Su Xuan finish this story would have no effect.
Su Xuan continued: "In the land of Regarding Baiyue, there was once a manor named Lord Huoyu Manor. The owner of the Lord Huoyu Manor was called Lord Lord Huoyu, a famous wealthy man in Regarding Baiyue. He had two daughters. Back then, when Han conquered Regarding Baiyue, the two Simas had stayed at the Lord Huoyu Manor. Among them, Right Left Sima Li Kai and Lord Lord Huoyu’s eldest daughter fell in love. This act aroused the jealousy of Left Left Sima Liu Yi. So, when Li Kai went to the front line to fight, he secretly colluded with the great thieves of Regarding Baiyue, the Three Wolves of Broken Hair, murdered Lord Lord Huoyu’s entire family, and designed to kill the Three Wolves of Broken Hair, monopolizing Lord Lord Huoyu’s treasure!"
"It is worth mentioning that Liu Yi’s current wife is Lord Lord Huoyu’s eldest daughter. He murdered Lord Lord Huoyu’s entire family, then married the other’s daughter, and kept the truth in the dark. It is truly admirable!"
Su Xuan was not direct; as soon as he opened his mouth, he told the evil deeds Liu Yi had done back then.
Hearing this beastly act, many people’s faces became serious.
Ji Ji Wuye didn't care about Liu Yi’s evil deeds; he only cared about what Su Xuan said about Liu Yi monopolizing Lord Lord Huoyu’s treasure. At the same time, what did this matter have to do with Liu Yi’s death?
He scolded Su Xuan: "You haven't said how Liu Yi died!"
"This matter is not urgent; the Grand General will know soon." Su Xuan continued: "Regarding the matter back then, Liu Yi thought he had done it flawlessly, but he didn't know that among the Three Wolves of Broken Hair, one person survived. He carried deep hatred and then joined an organization. Over the years, he had been deliberately seeking revenge on Liu Yi, until recently, when he found an opportunity."
"What organization?" Ji Ji Wuye asked.
"Hundred Birds!" Su Xuan said a name that made Ji Ji Wuye’s pupils shrink slightly. "As far as I know, under the Grand General’s command, there is also a personal guard organization named Hundred Birds, whose members are all experts."
"Hundred Birds belongs to the Grand General. Since someone from it killed Left Left Sima Liu Yi, it is hard not to suspect whether this matter was instigated by the Grand General!"
Su Xuan had no fear and looked directly at Ji Ji Wuye: "The Grand General sent someone to assassinate the current Left Left Sima; what is the intention? Is it to eliminate dissidents, or... to attempt to completely control the military and political power? To commit misconduct!"
