"That's right. My master is one of the Seventh Son of the Great Zhou. How could he be a spy of the demon clan? We must have made a mistake! This prodigal not only wants to kill my master, but also wants to tarnish his name! He deserves death, gentlemen!"
After Zhou Fu, Dai Xiu also hurriedly spoke.
Hearing this, several big shots in the field didn't even bother to pay attention, because seeing that Chu Tianxiao had already performed the soul-searching technique, they didn't need to do anything else and could just wait for the result... The right and wrong would be revealed in due time!
However... seeing Mu Xin's face suddenly turn extremely pale and his violent struggle... these bigwigs already had an idea in their minds...
For a moment, several people looked at Chu Tianxiao with a hint of admiration... Just think about it, Mu Xin is one of the Seventh Son of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Chu Tianxiao used soul-searching technique on him, it would be a stigma no matter how it is spread out, and it would definitely bring a flaw to this Purple Forbidden City decisive battle. He might even be evaluated as 'coveting secret treasures and being greedy by nature'... But if Mu Xin really colluded with the demons, then this matter would be of a completely different nature!
Let alone soul searching, as long as they can pry out information about the demons from him, these experienced bigwigs will not hesitate to use torture. This soul searching will not only not become a stigma, but will be praised by others for being "decisive and perceptive"...
Of course, this is based on the premise that Chu Tianxiao can really find "conclusive evidence". Otherwise, he will be guilty of the serious crime of slander and will be in big trouble!
Therefore, the result of this soul search is of great importance! Ice and fire!
Then he heard a hysterical roar from Mu Xin, which gradually descended from high to low. Soon, all the light in Chu Tianxiao's palm gathered on a bright pearl... In the blink of an eye, the pearl turned dark...
Chu Tianxiao stretched out a hand and covered it, feeling it carefully for a moment, then tapped lightly on his right palm with his fingers. After a while, he nodded.
"Well... although some details are still unknown, the basic lines have been connected..."
"The situation... I'm afraid it's much more troublesome than I imagined..."
With a thought in mind, he stood up respectfully and handed the bead to several important figures: "My lords, please take a look."
Several important figures nodded upon seeing this, and then immediately immersed their souls in it, sensing it carefully for a moment, and then all of their expressions changed drastically in an instant!
"... As one of the Seventh Sons of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he actually secretly communicated with the demons..."
"It's been three years! Everything has gone wrong and it's hard to reverse it!"
"He deserves death!"
Several people looked at Mu Xin at the same time, and some of them were half-step great practitioners with undisguised murderous eyes, which made Mu Xin feel like he was falling into an ice cellar, as if all his life force was about to be cut off...
His two disciples were not much better off. When they heard the sound, their legs and feet went limp and they fell to the ground. The main reason they followed Mu Xin was that he had more luck than the other seven disciples of the Great Zhou Dynasty and often gave them good things... But now it seems that those things may have come from unknown sources, and may even be... given by the demons
When they thought of this, they wanted to slap themselves a few times, thinking that Mu Xin was the last of the Seven Sons of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but he had such benefits. They should have seen something fishy a long time ago. How could he be bewitched and blinded by greed
But... it was too late to say anything now. With the ironclad evidence of "soul search", it was almost a done deal that Mu Xin was secretly communicating with the demons, and there was no way to overturn the case. As Mu Xin's disciples, they would naturally be tortured and forced to confess, becoming despised by everyone...
And the fact is indeed so. Before Zhou Fu and Dai Xiu could make any move, they were locked in by powerful auras, making it a luxury for them to even move, let alone escape!
Soon, several people from the Punishment Hall came forward, handcuffed the two men, and took them away. Needless to say, what was waiting for them...
As for the tomb...
Everyone in the field looked at Chu Tianxiao, and he nodded: "The soul search is complete, this person is no longer useful, and besides, this battle is a life-and-death battle, I will not show mercy!"
After he finished speaking, Chu Tianxiao did not give Mu Xin any time to react. The starlight in his hand became brighter and condensed into a thick sword shell, and then, it smashed heavily towards Mu Xin!
With a loud bang!
Before Mu Xin could even shout out, the last of his protective energy was shattered. Half of his body seemed to be burnt black by the flames, and the other half was no longer in human form, and was actually broken into two pieces!
The tomb of the Seven Sons of the Great Zhou Dynasty... fell here!
If it were any other time, such a major event would definitely cause a huge uproar, but tonight, it seemed that Mu Xin's death was just the beginning, just like throwing a stone into the center of a lake. The ripples on the lake water were the key. As for the small stones thrown into the lake... who would care
It is really ironic. If the tomb knew about this, he would probably... spit out blood again
However, those were not of concern to the people in the room. At the moment, everyone's attention was focused on the matter of the demons... Looking at the solemn expressions of the big men, the younger generations in the room felt a sense of uneasiness rising from the depths of their hearts...
"Not good... Most of what we found in the soul search were the messes of the past years. Although it is gratifying to know the truth of the past, it is not very useful information..."
"Yes, the key point is tonight... The soul search results clearly show that the demons will make a big move tonight, and some demons have even sneaked into Kyoto with bad intentions, but Mu Xin only knows sporadic information... It seems that he does not have the full trust of the demons..."
"…Even the Mu family is involved in this matter. Damn it! How many other people are involved in tonight's incident?"
After the last word fell, the big shot looked at Chu Tianxiao with a questioning look in his eyes. He groaned for a moment, shook his head and said, "I am determined to kill the Mu family, not entirely for personal grudges... Considering all the previous things, they can't have been dealing with the demons all the time, otherwise they would never be so eager for quick success. The most likely possibility is that the demons are using them... When they stood in front of me instead of being killed to silence them, I was sure that there must be something fishy... Time is already very tight tonight, we can't be misled again!"
After saying this, the great man nodded, his eyes showing a hint of appreciation, and then he said: "So, what do you think, Prince Chu?"
As soon as this sentence was uttered, many people closed their eyes.
The reason is simple, because these words show that in the eyes of the older generation of strong men, even if they put aside their family, Chu Tianxiao himself is no longer a simple younger generation!
Enough to ask for advice.
Enough to entrust with important tasks!
One can imagine how many younger generations desire but cannot obtain this!
This prodigal son... has actually grown to this point
For a moment, many people in the room were in a trance.
However, Chu Tianxiao was very calm about this and said directly: "Although the information obtained from soul searching is intermittent, most of it can still reveal some arrogance. Combined with my previous investigation, I have deduced the general clues..."
