Chapter 146

"The Jin Peng Dynasty?"

Before Ximen Chuixue's voice had even faded, a wave of commotion erupted around them.

Speaking of the Jin Peng Dynasty, many Jianghu onlookers knew a thing or two.

This was a dynasty that had already declined for several decades; it was located outside the pass, and although the dynasty was not large, it was very mysterious.

Fifty years ago, this Jin Peng Dynasty vanished almost overnight, as if it had evaporated from the face of the earth.

Since then, no news regarding the Jin Peng Dynasty had ever appeared in the Jianghu.

Until recently, because of the mystery of the Jin Peng Dynasty, many people had died, causing a huge stir in the Jianghu.

Even Xueyue City had heard a little about it.

Now, seeing Ximen Chuixue ask about this matter, the onlookers in the Jianghu could not help but feel curious!

After all, the Jianghu is a place of fighting and killing, but it is also a place for gossip.

But generally speaking, there is more gossiping than fighting.

"The Jin Peng Dynasty? This is interesting..."

"Although it has been several decades, no one has been able to clearly explain the affairs of the Jin Peng Kingdom back then!"

"I have also heard of this matter. The new Jin Peng King once entrusted many experts to investigate this case, but these experts either died or were injured. As a result, no one dared to intervene in this matter anymore. In the end, I suppose the Jin Peng King was truly at his wit's end, so he invited Ximen Chuixue and Lu Xiaofeng to step in. After all, if even Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuixue cannot solve it, then there is no need to investigate this case."

"So Ximen Chuixue has been investigating for so long and hasn't found any clues, and in the end, he still has to come and ask Mr. Su?"

"..."

Hearing the words of the crowd, Ximen Chuixue was also left between laughter and tears.

There was no help for it; he didn't want to take on this thorny case either—it was all Lu Xiaofeng dragging him into it!

Originally, he could have withdrawn in time, but now, because of the investigation, many lives had been lost, and among the victims were big figures like the Emei Sect leader, Dugu Yihe!

This matter was of great importance and could not be delayed!

If he didn't provide an explanation, this matter would likely be endless!

But after investigating for a long time, Ximen Chuixue and Lu Xiaofeng, acting separately, could not find any useful clues.

Even if they occasionally found something useful, in the blink of an eye, the person involved would die inexplicably.

Both of them felt that this matter was extraordinary and that the level of involvement might far exceed their imagination.

The forces behind it were hidden extremely deep.

As a result,

it was no longer something that Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuixue could handle alone.

Ximen Chuixue was naturally a generation of Sword God, with superb swordsmanship, fearing no opponent.

But if this matter could not be brought to light, there would be endless trouble in the future.

Ximen Chuixue was a person who had always liked peace and quiet,

so, even for the sake of his peace in the second half of his life, this matter had to be investigated clearly!

Thinking of this, Ximen Chuixue said to Su Hang:

"Regarding the Jin Peng Dynasty case, Lu Xiaofeng and I have been investigating for a long time,"

"but the more we investigate, the more people die, and the worse the impact becomes."

"To this day, we haven't grasped any useful clues..."

"If Mr. Su could use his divine calculations to give us some guidance, Ximen Chuixue would be deeply grateful!"

Hearing Ximen Chuixue say this,

Lu Xiaofeng also walked up, cupped his hands, and bowed to Su Hang, saying:

"That is indeed the case!"

"Please, Mr. Su, clear up our confusion!"

"When we recover the Jin Peng treasure, there will naturally be a share for Mr. Su!"

Hearing this,

Su Hang immediately became interested.

After all, for a transmigrator like Su Hang, the secrets of the Jin Peng Dynasty were basically no secrets at all.

And he only needed to say a few words here to get a share of the Jin Peng Dynasty's treasure—where could he find such a good deal?

Su Hang smiled lightly and then said:

"Fifty years ago, the Jin Peng Dynasty was conquered by Cossack cavalry."

"Overnight, the city was destroyed and the people perished."

"The imperial city was burned down, and the common people were abducted."

"In desperation, the king at the time could only entrust the four high officials by his side to take all the wealth of the Jin Peng Dynasty and come to the Central Plains first."

"Wait until the descendants of the dynasty appeared, then come back to retrieve the treasure to restore the Jin Peng Dynasty."

"And the four high officials entrusted by the Jin Peng King back then were the imperial relative Shangguan Jin, the civil official Shangguan Mu, the general Ping Duhe, and the internal affairs manager Yan Liben!"

Ximen Chuixue heard this and suddenly realized the truth.

Su Hang had cleared up the matter in just a few words!
