After the afternoon meeting, only Song Yan, who had left first, Old Wu, who did not attend the meeting, and Liu Ruyi, who had no knowledge of cultivation, were left.
Everyone fell into the same thoughts as Zhuang Yan, but the scope of their consideration was different.
Even Qin Haiyun, who had always been a heartless guy, felt an itch in his heart.
Before he came into contact with the isolated island, he thought that the cultivation method of his family was the best in the world.
However, the isolated island had shattered his perception, causing him to hesitate whether to change his allegiance.
The others were basically the same. They had their own considerations and were similar.
Just as they were making plans for their future cultivation path, a dignified voice sounded, causing them to break out in cold sweat.
"Sealed God World stowaway Wu Gang, dead!”
The indifferent voice of the isolated island resounded in everyone's hearts.
"Stowaways?"
"Dead…"
"Wu Gang? Old Wu?"
In an instant, they were no longer sleepy. They were all shocked by this death notice and thought about it in their own rooms.
Would he really die? Was it Old Wu?
Their hearts were filled with questions, but they did not dare to go out because the post house was under martial law after night fell.
Other than the people on night duty, no one was allowed to walk around at will. Once discovered, they would be killed without mercy.
However, Qin Haiyun and Bai Cang did not care about this. After all, they were cultivators who had entered the realm.
It was extremely easy to avoid the eyes of the Nighthawks. It should not be a problem to check the news.
The two of them made their way to Old Wu's room at the same time.
When they arrived, they saw Song Yan standing in front of Old Wu's bed with a solemn expression.
There were also two soldiers lying beside him, sleeping soundly. They were probably unable to wake up due to Song Yan.
Old Wu was lying on the bed, no longer breathing.
"How is it?" Bai and Qin came behind Song Yan and asked in a low voice.
When they looked at Old Wu, they saw that his body was abnormally red, and there were no wounds on his body.
In addition, there was no pained expression on his face. In fact, judging from the frozen expression on his face, he should have been quite happy when he died.
"Could it be poisoning? He died so strangely."
Qin Haiyun didn't have a good impression of Old Wu. He had said that he would kill him before. Now that Old Wu was really dead, he didn't have any psychological pressure to tease the cause of death.
"No, his soul has already disappeared, but I can't sense the aura of his soul in the surroundings. It should have been directly scattered or taken away.”
"In addition, his body is red and his blood is surging, but his blood essence is almost completely depleted. As far as I know, anyone who can kill like this can be from the four paths of demons, devils, and ghosts.”
Song Yan hugged his saber and said coldly.
Qin Haiyun and Bai Cang also had goosebumps when they heard this." So terrifying? Would the other party still be here? Old White, let's go.”
Qin Haiyun had never been interested in Old Wu. Now that he was dead, he couldn't be happier. He had no intention of helping Old Wu find the murderer.
Moreover, this involved the cultivators of demons and devils, so they didn't want to ask for trouble.
He pulled Bai Cang and was about to leave.
After being dragged to the door by Qin Haiyun, Bai Cang turned around and said to Song Yan.
"Brother Song, you should hurry up and leave. Demons, devils, and ghosts are not to be trifled with.。。Leave? He left?"
Besides him, Qin Haiyun, and the two sleeping soldiers, there was no one else in the room. Song Yan had already slipped away when they turned around and walked to the door.
Bai Cang did not dare to delay. He dragged Qin Haiyun away from the scene.
。。。。。。
The next day.
The two soldiers in Old Wu's room woke up.
The soldier on the left yawned as he put on his clothes.
"The last day is almost here. The journey is really tiring.”
"Come on, the higher-ups move their mouths, and the lower-ups run their legs. After so many years, do you still not know?”
The soldier on the right said.
"Yes, yes, I was just sighing. Sigh, Old Wu was really a good sleeper. She was still not awake. Old Wu, Old Wu."
The soldier on the left replied to the other person. He happened to notice Old Wu lying there motionless, so he called out and pushed her with his hand.
" Ah…" However, just as his hand touched Old Wu, he was so frightened that he cried out and fell off the bed.
"What's wrong? Why are you shouting? You scared me."
The soldier under the bed did not respond. Instead, his hands were trembling and his face was pale. He stuttered as he pointed at Old Wu.
"Dead…dead!"
"What?" Before the soldier on the bed could react, he thought he had heard wrongly.
However, he still reached out to check Old Wu's breathing.
In an instant, his face turned pale. He hurriedly jumped off the bed and looked at the silent Old Wu as he retreated step by step.
After three steps, he suddenly turned around and shouted.
"Someone died! Someone died…"
He ran out.
The soldier who had just gotten up from the ground had a mental breakdown. He chased after the man and shouted,"Wait for me…"
Thus, the two of them screamed and ran out.
。。。
Such a huge commotion also woke up the others.
Not long after, everyone gathered around to look at the situation in the room. Only General Qiao, the leader of the team, Chen Youwei, and the accompanying military doctor were in the room.
The three of them gathered around the corpse and muttered something.
After about fifteen minutes, they finally came out together. General Qiao did not mention anything about Old Wu. He only dismissed everyone to pack up and set off in fifteen minutes.
。。。
Fifteen minutes later.
Zhuang Yan, who had already packed up and was waiting at the entrance of the station, saw Qin Haiyun running out of the door mysteriously and giving him and the others a look. Then he walked unsteadily to the side of the station, where there were fewer people.
Zhuang Yan looked around and saw that there was a small group of people standing around lazily. No one noticed them at all.
He couldn't be bothered to hide anything and followed.
The others followed suit and turned around the corner to the side of the inn.
Sure enough, Qin Haiyun was waiting there. Before anyone could ask, he spoke first.
"Alright, time is of the essence, so I won't delay any longer. My sister just sent out the news that she lived opposite Su Daji last night and saw Old Wu sneaking into Su Daji's room before he died.”
"About two hours later, we received a notification from the isolated island of time and space. There was no movement from Su Daji's room. After Old Wu went in, she did not come out but died strangely in her own bed.。。。。。”
"That's probably the situation. My sister guessed that Su Daji was the one who did it. She also felt that Su Daji had most likely been possessed.”
"Yes, I am. Alright, tell your sister to be careful…。。。。”
Everyone pondered for a while and didn't pursue the matter further. They only asked Qin Haiyun to tell Qin Mengyu to pay attention to her safety.
Old Wu's death made everyone's hearts sink.
Although they had only known each other for a few days, they knew that missions were not child's play and that other worlds were not a playground.
With their cultivation, there were countless cultivators who could kill them silently.
The death of an unknown soldier did not cause much of a stir. Even General Qiao did not have any intention of staying behind to investigate.
Chen Youwei was left in charge of the funeral affairs, and the team continued to set off, trying to reach Chaoge before noon today.
Su Daji also came out, followed by Qin Mengyu. She was graceful and graceful, and did not look like she was going to kill anyone.
She even ignored the fact that someone else had stepped on her feet today. She did not even pretend to ask about the person who had stepped on her feet yesterday.
It was really a world where the strong preyed on the weak. The weak did not care about the life or death of the powerful.
Even Zhuang Yan, who had been through life's hardships since he was young, was truly aware of the coldness of the world for the first time.
This strengthened his determination to embark on the path of cultivation as soon as possible and control his own destiny.
