She put Supreme Level and Semi-divine pills into Grand Secretary Fang’s mouth.
“Swallow it! Swallow it! You’ll come back to life!”
“Xiao Wu!” Xuan Yi grabbed Feng Wu’s sleeve, shook his head at her, and said in a sorrowful voice, “…Grandpa is dead.”
Feng Wu blanched, but she still wouldn’t give up. She tried her best to save Grand Secretary Fang, but in the end… Grand Secretary Fang was beyond saving.
Everyone’s face darkened.
Just then, Luo Zilin returned, and Feng Wu asked anxiously, “Have you heard from my mother and Xiaoqi?”
Luo Zilin shook his head.
Even Luo Zilin, who had always been unperturbed, had a solemn look on his face. He looked at Feng Wu and said, “I’m afraid it’s not going to be easy. Calm down. You won’t be able to solve the problem no matter how anxious you are.”
Feng Wu nodded, took a deep breath to calm herself down, and asked, “Do you have any leads?”
Luo Zilin shook his head.
Feng Wu said coldly, “No lead is the biggest lead. If something goes wrong, there must be a trace. So, it has to be a cultivator much more capable than them.”
Just then, Luo Zilin crouched down and examined Grand Secretary Fang. In the end, he said, “I think we have a lead now.”
“Speak!” Feng Wu prompted.
“That’s the smell of Skull Leaf Grass.” Luo Zilin pointed at Grand Secretary Fang’s chest.
Grand Secretary Fang was struck in the chest and killed.
“The Skull Leaf Grass only grows in the territory of the Dayan Empire. You don’t have it on this continent at the moment, so we can conclude that someone from the empire is involved,” Luo Zilin said calmly.
The first person that came to Feng Wu’s mind was Yan Yu.
“And there’s the palm print. If I remember it correctly, it was left behind by a Spiritual Sovereign. Spiritual Saints can’t do that,” said Luo Zilin.
Feng Wu nodded. “Dayan Empire, Spiritual Sovereign.” That was Luo Zilin’s conclusion.
There was no enmity between Grand Secretary Fang and the Dayan Empire, so how could he be targeted by the Spiritual Sovereign and assassinated? Or did Grand Secretary Fang’s death have something to do with the disappearance of ner morner ana maoqlf
“Under Grand Secretary Fang’s nails…” After a closer look, Feng Wu saw that there was a little black mud under Grand Secretary Fang’s nails.
Feng Wu realized right away that it was the black mud of Fallen Star Yard!
Feng Wu had carefully set up the entire Fallen Star Yard with a formation. She had even enhanced the black mud with her spiritual essence, so she recognized it right away.
“How can there be black mud under Grand Secretary Fang’s fingernails? Could it be that when Xiaoqi was taken away, Grand Secretary Fang only managed to grab someone’s shoe when he tried to grab Xiaoqi?”
Feng Wu examined Grand Secretary Fang’s nails and saw that they were indeed scratched.
“Grand Secretary Fang must be the last person to see Xiaoqi and my mom!” Feng Wu said affirmatively. “Grand Secretary Fang wanted to save my mom and Xiaoqi, but they were so powerful that Grand Secretary Fang…”
“I think you’re right,” Luo Zilin said to Feng Wu. “If that’s the case, your mother and Xiaoqi should still be alive. If they really want to kill someone, they could have done it, just like what they did to Grand Secretary Fang. They wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to take the body away..”
