The heavy rain continued. A mountain breeze blew, and Yan Liqiang, who was soaked all over, suddenly woke up. His numb brain started working again. He looked at the devastated valley in the distance and quickly ran into the valley.
Raindrops mixed with cold wind blew on Yan Liqiang's face. Yan Liqiang's mind was in a mess. The scene just now really shocked Yan Liqiang's understanding of the world. How could Lin Qingtian become like that? Could it be that in this world, in addition to humans, there are other non-human races? And how could those non-humans become like Lin Qingtian and become the prime minister of the Han Empire? And the Yu Luo Palace seemed to have known Lin Qingtian's non-human identity. What was going on
Countless questions appeared in Yan Liqiang's mind, and Yan Liqiang vaguely felt that he seemed to know something extraordinary this time.
In the blink of an eye, Yan Liqiang rushed into the valley!
The valley was in a mess, with broken rocks and trees everywhere, large pits everywhere on the ground, and sharp grooves left by sword energy on the rock walls on both sides. The entire valley looked like it had been baptized by a meteor.
"Boom..." The rocks on the rock wall shattered, and the swordsman in white rushed out from the pile of rocks. Just as he stood up, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. His body swayed for a while, and then he coughed violently...
"Senior, are you okay?" For fear of being misunderstood by the swordsman in white, Yan Liqiang did not rush forward immediately, but spoke to the swordsman in white from a distance.
"Who are you?" The golden mask on the white-clothed swordsman's face looked extremely strange, especially when the mask turned around and spoke to you. Along with the hoarse voice, a sense of pressure naturally came over you.
Yan Liqiang swallowed his saliva and said calmly, "My name is Wang Shagen..."
"No!" The white-clothed swordsman interrupted Yan Liqiang decisively, shook his head, and swept his eyes over the hundred-stone strong bow in Yan Liqiang's hand, and continued in a hoarse voice, "You are not Wang Shagen, you are... Ganzhou Yan Liqiang, I have seen the bow in your hand by the Tianchi Lake in Canglong Mountain. You just changed your body shape and face, but the bow in your hand and your archery skills have not changed. There are only a handful of skills in the world that can change body shape and face, and there are even fewer that can become flawless like you now. There is only one "Thousand Faces Magic Skill", which is the unique secret book of the Thousand Faces Demon Lord back then, but the Thousand Faces Demon Lord has disappeared from the world for many years and should have died long ago. The "Thousand Faces Magic Skill" has not appeared in the world for a long time. It seems that you accidentally obtained the true teachings of the Thousand Faces Demon Lord..."
Looking at the golden mask flashing with a layer of faint golden light, Yan Liqiang felt his scalp tingling, and he felt as if he was being seen through and naked. The strength of this white-clothed swordsman was beyond Yan Liqiang's imagination. He didn't expect that this person was actually watching the battle by the Tianchi Lake in Canglong Mountain at the beginning. Now, just by looking at him, he actually revealed all his secrets. However, the only thing that made Yan Liqiang feel at ease was this white-clothed swordsman. Judging from his actions, he should not be a vicious person. Especially in dealing with Lin Qingtian, this white-clothed swordsman should be standing in the same trench with him, otherwise, Yan Liqiang would either have to silence him or run away.
Yan Liqiang nodded as his mind raced. "Senior, your vision is sharp. I admire you. Yes, I am Yan Liqiang!"
"I didn't expect you to dare to attack Lin Qingtian?"
"Lin Qingtian, as the prime minister, is indeed a cancer to our Han Empire. I have long wanted to kill this traitor!
"Did you see everything that happened just now?" the white-robed swordsman continued to ask.
"I saw it!" Yan Liqiang nodded, "I shot an arrow at Lin Qingtian, and then I saw Lin Qingtian turned into a monster that looked like a human but not a human, and finally ran over there..."
The swordsman in white looked at the direction Lin Qingtian fled and sighed, "What a pity that I didn't kill him this time..."
"Senior, who exactly is Lin Qingtian? How did he become like that?" Yan Liqiang asked the question that he was most curious about.
"Do you want to know?" asked the swordsman in white.
After hesitating for just a second, Yan Liqiang nodded heavily.
“Someone is coming!” The swordsman in white turned his head and looked outside the valley, then started coughing again. He finally supported his body with the sword with some difficulty. After the coughing stopped, he pointed to the ground not far away and said, “There is a broken arm of Lin Qingtian over there... If you want to know the answer, pick it up and follow me...”
After saying this, the swordsman in white flashed and disappeared into the nearby forest. Yan Liqiang looked at the ground not far away and ran over. Sure enough, he saw a broken arm lying on the ground. However, that arm was not a human arm, but like the claw of a mutant crocodile. The thick arm was covered with black scales, and the nails on the arm were like those of a wild beast.
Yan Liqiang picked up the inhuman arm, and with a flash of his body, he followed the white-clothed swordsman into the forest.
A few minutes after the two people left here, amidst the thunder and lightning, two figures flashed in the valley, and two figures braved the heavy rain suddenly appeared in the valley...
The two men were an old man with white hair and beard, and a eunuch with a face as white as snow and a hint of feminine air. Yan Liqiang had met them once when he went to the palace.
"The people have left!" The old man looked around the valley and said in a low voice.
"There is something here..." The eunuch came to the place not far from where Yan Liqiang had just picked up the broken arm, bent down, reached out and touched under a stone on the ground, and picked up a small piece of something. It seemed to be a piece of skin from a broken tail, half the size of a palm, and the tail was also covered with hard scales.
Looking at the piece of blood and flesh in his hand, the eunuch's expression changed, "Let's go back to the palace!"
After these two people left, several more groups of people came to the valley, explored the valley, and then left...
…
Two days later, a piece of news in the Imperial Capital shocked the world. The court's official newspaper officially announced that Prime Minister Lin Qingtian was assassinated. The official newspaper was vague about the process of Lin Qingtian's assassination, only saying that it might involve a vendetta, and the court would do its best to hunt down the murderer of Lin Qingtian. On the same day when the court announced that Lin Qingtian was assassinated, the Minister of Criminal Affairs Gu Chunyi was dismissed from office and thrown into the Heavenly Prison by the Emperor because of his poor law and order and allowing criminals to wreak havoc in the Imperial Capital, which led to the assassination of Prime Minister Lin Qingtian...
