Starting My Cultivation With Time Management

Chapter 546: Splitting the Sea and Breaking the Tide Crossbow

A long caravan passed through the city gate.

The houses on both sides are mostly made of stone, and the street in the center is slightly sunken.

It is said that in the former City in the Lake, it was not the streets that connected the blocks, but the waterways... It sounds very dragon-like, but Qilin definitely doesn't like this environment, so a large-scale urban reconstruction was done later, Many waterways were turned into streets, and the ponds were drained and planted with flowers and plants that the Jiao people love.

Long Long quietly looked out from the gap in the door curtain, and saw that most of the residents on the surrounding roadside were of the Jiao tribe, but there were also many other races.

Among them, there are horn tribe monks wearing huge and exaggerated gold horn ornaments, walking around the streets with spears in their hands.

These are the guards of the imperial capital, all of them are composed of pure-blood horned people, and the patrilineal and maternal lines of the ancestors are not allowed to have other races - just because blood is more important than ability, these guards are very corrupt inside, and the residents of the imperial capital are very corrupt. Calling them big heads means that they like to decorate and show off their horns.

Seeing the crown prince Qi Qiaoan leading the team, the big-headed captain quickly rushed over. He was a plump deer named Lu Zhong, sweating profusely:

I don't know if His Highness is going out, the humble minister is guilty...

Go and drive those untouchables away. Qi Qiaoan pointed forward and said.

Lu Zhong hurriedly scolded his subordinates, and violently dispersed all the passers-by who were watching.

There were also a few who walked slowly, and were poked a few times with a spear by the big head, and died immediately on the spot, and their bodies were quickly dragged away... Unformed monsters, no matter how high or low their IQs, all have no basic skills human rights protection.

After more than ten breaths, the road ahead was completely cleared, and no idlers dared to stay here.

The convoy was still walking slowly, Long Long and Long Hu looked at the outside world in the carriage, feeling a little uncomfortable with each other.

The two of them just took shape recently, and they haven't developed the discriminatory thought of the non-shape is like nothing to me like the shape-shifting monks. Seeing these little demons who haven't turned into shape wantonly beheaded by big heads, they have a feeling Subconscious empathy and intolerance.

Suddenly, only a low whistling sound could be heard.

Be careful! Kunlun Jing exclaimed in surprise, and saw the Great Elder Qin Chaocang suddenly grabbed Long Long, pushed him and Long Hu to the ground, and pushed forward with the other hand.

The wall of the carriage in front suddenly exploded, and the blue light rushed towards the palm of the Great Elder's hand... However, at some point, a long sword appeared in the hand of the Great Elder, and he slashed at the center of the blue brilliance.

The huge explosion shock wave spread in all directions, and the four dragon guards closest to them were shattered on the spot. The guards farther away finally had time to display their supernatural powers, and barely blocked the aftermath of the explosion despite serious injuries.

More aftermath blasted out from the gap between the guards, instantly razing the houses in the two blocks, together with the residents inside.

Qi Qiaoan, who was walking in the front, was also blocked by several horn clan guards desperately, and was finally unscathed.

When he got up from the ground with a terrified expression, he couldn't help screaming in fear as he looked at the purgatory-like desolation around him.

………………

That night, Longlong and Longhu were placed in the palace on the ground floor of the Shenlong Pagoda.

This place is located underground, guarded by the Qilin family with heavy troops, there is absolutely no possibility of being assassinated again.

Inside the Emperor's Hall, Qi Weihuan was furious, and gave the city guard captain Lu Zhong a death order to find out the origin of the assassin.

After about half an hour, the preliminary incident report was submitted to the emperor's desk.

There were no bones left of the assassin, and the location of the murder was determined to be behind the chimney on the roof of the Canoe Tavern in the outer city, overlooking the Dragon envoy caravan on the street.

The murder weapon was confirmed to be the Sea Breaking Tide Crossbow. This is a dangerous magic weapon known for its power. The more true essence injected, the greater the power. body.

What is even more confusing is that the Fenhai Tidebreaker Crossbow is a magic weapon of the human race in ancient times. It was specially cast for the powerful flesh body of the monster race. Unknown.

The assassin was a monk of the feather clan. The guards guessed that when he committed the crime, his back should be facing the street below. After turning his head to confirm the position of the carriage, he pressed the sea-dividing tide-breaking crossbow against his chest, making the crossbow, himself It formed a three-point line with the carriage, and then quickly injected all the true energy.

The erupting crossbow bolts tore apart the assassin's body and the carriage compartment at the same time. If it wasn't for the Great Elder Qin Chaocang who was also inside the carriage, he split the crossbow arrow head-on with his magic sword. It is also the fate of being turned into powder.

Just look at two nearby neighborhoods that were flattened by the aftermath of the blast.

The only evidence obtained so far is that the residual true energy of the monks of the Yu tribe was found in the body of the magic weapon of the sea breaking tide crossbow. In addition, the flesh and blood of the monks of the Yu tribe were also found near the crossbow. From this, the guards concluded the identity of the assassin. Race.

As for its specific identity, since there are no bones left, it is naturally impossible to know.

Even why he possessed the sea-dividing tide-breaking crossbow, why he wanted to assassinate the Dragon envoy convoy... all followed the death of the assassin, and the clues were lost.

Qi Weihuan was furious after reading the incident report, dragged Lu Zhong down and beat him with 150 lashes, and then said to the Canglong patriarch Qin Beiwang who was watching the whole process:

I think this matter is the work of the remnants of the Yu clan in Nanzhou. If Longlong and Longhu die in the imperial capital, the dragon clan will misunderstand that it is my Qilin clan. When the war in Zhongzhou and Dongzhou ignites, they can fight in Nanzhou. To linger on, to steal life... Such despicable deeds are really disgusting!

Qin Beiwang listened expressionlessly, nodded in agreement and said:

That's right, if they want to drive a wedge between the two clans, the Yu clan has made a wrong calculation!

The two of them scolded the Nanzhou Yuzu with the same hatred, as if the identity of the real culprit had been fully confirmed. Qi Weihuan emphasized again and again that he would definitely give an explanation for the death and injury of the Longzu. Qin Beiwang thanked and left.

After Qin Beiwang left, Qi Weihuan turned cold, and looked into the distance through the palace gate.

Who did this murder?

First of all, it cannot be Yuzu. Because if the murderer can't be found, and the two clans don't want to turn against each other because of this, in the end, the blame will definitely be blamed on the Yu clan... It doesn't matter whether there is evidence or not, the Yu clan will definitely take the blame, so this assassin of the Yu clan will be even more helpless Both the necessity and the target of the assassination were destroyed.

Secondly, why do you want to assassinate Longlong and Longhu?

Although these two people are of the blood of the immortal rank, they have only transformed into form not long ago, and they pose no threat to any force at all.

Want to create a conflict between the Central State and the Eastern State? Also unlikely. Now that the Qilin Clan has the support of the Xuanwu Clan and is married to the White Tiger Clan, it is impossible for the Zhuniao Clan to start a war in the short term. Therefore, as long as the Canglong Clan is not collectively brainwashed, it is absolutely impossible for the Canglong Clan to conflict with the Qilin Clan.

They can't afford such a price, and they will inevitably accept the explanation given by the Qilin clan in the end, and choose to calm down.

In other words, it is unlikely that there was a political purpose behind this assassination, because the result is already doomed.

However, a magic weapon of the level of the sea-dividing tide-breaking crossbow can be obtained, and it has been concealed until now. After the assassination, the magic weapon must be left on the scene, which means that the person behind it is ready to abandon the magic weapon.

It can't be an ordinary monk! There must be a hidden force behind this, leading the assassination.

In order to kill Longlong and Longhu, he was even willing to sacrifice the sea-breaking crossbow... Who is it? !
