Chapter 51: Diverting trouble to the east
"trouble!"

Jiang Wang is a disciple of Huo Zheng, and a cultivator worshipped by the Xia Dynasty. Because he was canonized by the Human King, his cultivation will not be suppressed by the Jiuzhou barrier.

Therefore, if it was not necessary, Han Yi didn't want to fight with him!

not worth it!

The other party was a cultivator worshipped by the Xia Dynasty. If he died in the territory of Xuan State, the Xia Dynasty ancestral temple would definitely send stronger cultivators to investigate.

This is not what Han Yi wants to see.

after all……

He also hoped to use Xuan State as a springboard, and when Cheng Tang launched an attack on Xia, he would join Cheng Tang's army and seek some benefits and merits!
Now, he only has the cultivation level of refining the spirit and transforming into emptiness. Even if he goes under Cheng Tang's command, he will not be taken seriously.

However, if we bring a vassal state to serve King Tang, it would be different!

Not to mention being treated as an honored guest by him, but at least, you should be able to gain a certain right to speak in front of him!
the other side.

After escorting Si Jin to the mansion of Marquis Xuanbo, Jiang Wang used various excuses to talk to the guards and servants in the mansion and inquire about the matter of Han Bing and Han Ding turning into evil spirits.

Although he still hadn't found any clues about the flying zombie, he couldn't help but frown when he heard the news that Han Ding drowned in the mansion for no reason, and Han Bing mysteriously fell off his horse and was brutally killed by cruel guards.

"Is it an illusion?" He boldly guessed, "Or is it a charm, or witchcraft, or some kind of magical power that can secretly manipulate people's hearts?"

The behavior of these two people was very abnormal, as if they were being controlled by someone.

and……

I heard that Han Ren’s mother was from the Jiuli tribe!

Therefore, Jiang Wang suspected that the deaths of Han Bing and Han Ding were related to Madam Jinhua.

But he found an opportunity and glanced at Madam Jinhua from a distance, and discovered that there was no trace of magical practice on her body, and it was impossible for her to refine a flying zombie.

"Could it be... that Jiuli is behind this?"

"Although most of the Jiuli tribe practices witchcraft and body refining, with their background, it is not impossible to find a few practitioners who are good at corpse refining!"

"after all……"

"If Han Ren becomes the new Marquis Xuanbo, the Jiuli tribe will also gain some benefits!"

While Jiang Wang was secretly speculating, he came to the cemetery where Han Bing and Han Ding were buried, and carefully investigated the evil spirit contained in the cemetery.

As a place to bury the dead, a cemetery should be filled with extremely negative and evil spirits.

but……

He discovered that the evil spirit in this cemetery was extremely sparse, as if it had been taken away by someone, with only a few strands of it hidden in the mountain.

"Attract evil!"

Jiang Wang could tell at a glance that the evil spirit here was mostly gathered on Han Bing and the other man by someone using the evil-attracting technique, turning them into flying zombies.

Afterwards, he came to the place where Han Wu, Han Ji, Han Geng, Han Xin and Han Gui were buried, intending to open the coffin to verify his guess.

As long as he saw the traces on the five bodies, he could determine whether they were killed by a vengeful evil spirit or a man-made flying zombie!
however……

When he opened the graves of several people, he found nothing inside.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Wang snorted coldly.

The mastermind behind the refining of the flying zombies seemed to have expected that someone would come to investigate, and he disposed of the bodies of Han Gui and others without anyone noticing!
"It seems that if we want to find out the secret behind this 'evil ghost', we have to start with the death of Han Bing and the other two!" Jiang Wang frowned slightly, constantly connecting various clues, and thought to himself: "It seems that the death of the two of them and the death of Han Gui and the others were not done by the same person!"

He decided to get straight to the point and go ask Madam Jinhua!
When Jiang Wang was asking around about the circumstances of Han Bing and others before their death, Madam Jinhua discovered something was wrong and secretly asked Zhiyi to pass the news to Han Yi!

"This Jiang Wang is really a trouble!" Han Yi frowned and said with emotion: "If I remember correctly, Huo Zheng should have fallen into the hands of Taoist Lu Ya by now! And Prime Minister Guan Long Pang was also imprisoned in the prison of Zhen'e by Lu Gui because of his rude words!"

"I just don't know... Is this Jiang Wang Lugui's man, or was he sent by Guan Longpan?"

"If it's the former, killing him will be a bit troublesome!"

"But if it's the latter, it's not impossible to take a risk and eliminate this hidden danger!"

Although he knew about the extraordinary people who emerged during King Tang's conquest of Xia, they definitely did not include Jiang Wang, a cultivator who had not even achieved immortality.

Therefore, he was not clear whether Jiang Wang was Lugui's man or Guan Longpan's man!
All we know is that he is a descendant of Emperor Yan, a direct disciple of the contemporary Huo Zheng, and is good at controlling fire!
"You can't hide anymore!"

After careful consideration, Han Yi decided to meet Jiang Wang.

At the same time, a plan to divert the trouble to someone else came to his mind!

"It is better for me to die than for my friend to die!"

Soon, Han Yi rode a gust of breeze and returned to the mansion of Marquis Xuanbo.

He first went to see Han Wu, then secretly spoke a few words to Madam Jinhua, and then went straight back to the small courtyard where he usually lived.

Then, he just waited for Jiang Wang, the uninvited guest, to come.

He did not hide the news that he had returned to the Marquis of Xuanbo Mansion. He believed that after hearing the news of his return to the Marquis' Mansion, Jiang Wang would definitely come uninvited. "Second Young Master!" Jiang Wang, dressed in a red robe and with an extraordinary appearance, came straight to the door after hearing that Han Yi had returned to the Marquis' Mansion and said straight to the point: "I am Jiang Wang, and my disciple is Huo Zheng! I heard from the Marquis that the Second Young Master is also a cultivator, so I came here to ask for some advice. I hope you will give me some advice!"

As soon as he met Han Yi, he discovered that Han Yi's cultivation had already reached the realm of Refining Qi into Void, and his spirit, energy and essence were perfect. It was obvious that he was practicing the orthodox Xuanmen method.

only……

With his eyesight and level of cultivation, he still couldn't tell who Han Yi's master was!

"Hello, Daoist Jiang!" Han Yi smiled and returned the greeting, "I just heard from my father that Daoist Jiang wanted to discuss Dao with me! I heard that Daoist Jiang is the direct disciple of Lord Huo Zheng, and his strength has reached the realm of Lianxu Hedao! After meeting him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved!"

"Fellow Taoist, you are serious!"

Hearing this, Jiang Wang also smiled and said, "I think your method of cultivation is also unusual! I just don't know... have you heard of flying zombies?"

After seeing Han Yi's cultivation level, he had a suspicion that he was the one controlling the flying zombies behind the scenes.

after all……

The other party has the cultivation level of refining the spirit and transforming into emptiness. Logically speaking, he should know the flying zombie.

Therefore, he directly tested her!

In his opinion, if Han Yi was really related to the flying zombie, he would definitely show panic on his face after hearing what he said.

This is his plan!

However, to his surprise, Han Yi was not panicked upon hearing this. Instead, he sighed and said, "Daoyou, are you here to discuss the matter of my third and fourth brothers being transformed into flying zombies?"

he knows?
Jiang Wang was stunned when he heard this.

He thought that when Han Yi faced his temptation, he would either panic or pretend to be calm, but he...he never thought that the other party would show a guilty look!

Could it be that the other party has something to hide?

"That's right!"

Jiang Wang nodded, revealing a hint of majesty without anger, and said, "Since the Second Young Master knew that they were flying zombies, why didn't he tell the Marquis? Instead, he said that they were evil spirits transformed by the Third and Fourth Young Masters...? Could it be that those two flying zombies were created by the Second Young Master?"

"How is that possible?" Han Yi said righteously, "I practice the righteous way of Xuanmen. How could I be contaminated by the evil art of corpse refining?"

"Besides, Han Bing and Han Ding are my brothers!"

"How could I possibly harm them?"

Then, his eyes widened in anger, and he pointed to the sky and swore, "I can swear to heaven that Han Bing and Han Ding did not die in my hands! If I tell even a single lie, my soul will fall into the Netherworld Hell forever, and I will be struck by thunder day and night, and I will never be able to be reborn!"

He looked extremely angry, as if he had suffered a great injustice!
Anyway, Han Bing and Han Ding died because of Madam Jinhua, not him!
He just...

I just recycled the bodies of the two people!

Seeing Han Yi's grief-stricken look, Jiang Wang hurriedly comforted him, "Fellow Daoist Han Yi, that's not what I meant! I just want to know why... knowing that it was the flying zombie that killed Han Gui and the others, you insisted on telling the Marquis that it was the ghosts of the Second and Third Young Masters... who came for revenge?"

"It's a long story!"

Han Yi said with a sad face: "How could I not know the flying zombie? But... for the safety of my father, I can only pretend not to know!"

"Appreciate further details!"

Jiang Wang looked at Han Yi with a curious look.

Han Yi sighed and said, "This matter has something to do with my elder brother and Madam Jinhua! If I'm not mistaken, the two flying zombies should have been made by a cultivator introduced to Madam Jinhua by Daoxing Tianzun of the Chan Sect! As for the price... it was the Jiuli Weapon Refining Technique!"

"Han Jia?"

"Mrs. Jinhua?"

"Explain the teachings?"

"Jiuli Weapon Refining Technique?"

Jiang Wang was stunned when he heard this, obviously he hadn't figured out the connection between these things.

Han Yi explained, "You don't know, fellow Daoist! Daoxing Tianzun of the Chan Sect left a prophecy after accepting my elder brother as his disciple!"

"What prophecy?"

"The luck of the Xia Dynasty has run out, and the world is about to be lost. The black bird has taken off into the sky, and the holy ruler has been born in the Shang land!"

"Nonsense!" Hearing this, Jiang Wang could not help but get angry and said, "Daxia was founded by Emperor Yu, and its fortune has lasted for a long time. How could it be that its fortune is about to end?"

"I didn't say that!" Han Yi shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't you know that some time ago, the Human King violated the agreement made by the Three Emperors and the Saints that 'the Human King cannot practice cultivation', and used the corpse of the Golden Crow to embark on the path of cultivation, which angered the Saints?"

"Moreover, I heard that just a few days ago, he sent Lord Shuizheng, Lord Huozheng, and Lord Taozheng to kill Cheng Tang, the monarch of Shang!"

"In the end, Cheng Tang was rescued by several practitioners!"

"As for the three adults, one died and two were injured!"
