C805 Enigma
Ma Bo Ran's expression was slightly frightened as he hurriedly took a step forward and reported: "I saw Junior Brother Wang one last time three days ago, and I only returned yesterday because I was cultivating in Fate Tower."
"You never found out about Wang Zizhao's disappearance?" Bai Bingtian's expression was filled with dissatisfaction.
"Not long after this disciple returned, he saw two disciples from your peak descend from the mountain. The Fate Lantern that Junior Brother Wang left behind in the Elite Hall was extinguished and it had fallen. There are traces of a fight on the upper half of the mountain …" disciple had always thought that Junior Brother Wang had only returned to the Bright Light Peak, so I didn't pay too much attention to Junior Brother Wang's disappearance … "
Bai Bingtian interrupted Ma Bo Ran and asked again, "When you last saw Wang Zizhao, what did he tell you?"
"This …" Looking at Yan Siya, Ma Bo wanted to say something but stopped himself.
"What are you talking about? Why aren't you answering truthfully?" Bai Bingtian's mood was obviously very bad, seeing that Ma Bo Ran was hesitating, he immediately started to urge him.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Junior Brother Wang said that Junior Sister Yan and Senior Brother Loong Aoyun had some grudges, and hoped that disciple would be able to convince Junior Brother Long to come and find Junior Sister Yan to 'continue the relationship', and that Ye Feng had a deep relationship with Junior Sister Yan. At that time, if Senior Brother Long's heart was unhappy, he would naturally take action to deal with Ye Feng. However, when this disciple told him that Senior Long was in closed-door training, Junior Wang did not say much. "
"Despicable!"
"Damn it …"
Before Ma Bo Ran could finish speaking, Yan Siya, Peak Master Yan Xi and Ye Feng's expressions changed. This guy really had no intentions, he actually thought of such a malicious idea.
It seemed like this person really deserved to die.
Bai Bingtian's face turned ugly, his eyes shooting rays of light.
Although he admired Wang Zizhao for coming up with such an idea, for him to be exposed in such a wretched manner was after all, losing face for the Bright Light Peak.
"Ping Jia, tell me, what do you two know about this?" Bai Bingtian turned around and asked the other Emptiness Realm disciple behind him, ignoring Ma Bo Ran who had backed off in embarrassment.
"Yes sir!"
The disciple cupped his hands towards Bai Bingtian, "Yesterday afternoon, Junior Brother Cui Wen Xiang who is guarding the Elite Hall reported to me, saying that Senior Brother Wang's life lamp has been extinguished, and it is possible that it is already over. The Peak Master ordered his disciples and Junior Brother Wu Tu Lai to head over to Small Herb Peak to investigate the situation."
"You mean, yesterday afternoon was the time when Martial Nephew Wang truly fell?" Bai Bingtian frowned and asked.
"This... Junior brother Cui Wen Xiang reported that it was yesterday afternoon, but regarding the exact time Senior Brother Wang fell, disciple … I don't know, it was always before noon yesterday. " Ping Jia replied very cautiously.
"Humph!"
Bai Bingtian was obviously very dissatisfied with the answer, this Cui Wen Xiang who was guarding the Elite Hall was too unreliable, when the life lamp of the Elite disciple was extinguished, he could not detect it immediately?
He coldly snorted before continuing to ask, "Then, did you find any clues about him in the Small Herb Peak?"
Ping Jia said: "Two disciples have been investigated by the Peak Master's name, so I dare not be the slightest bit careless. However, we did not find anything suspicious within or outside of the hut the Senior Brother Wang lived in. After a day of careful inspection, only today did we find the traces of an expert's vicious battle at the upper reaches of the Small Herb Peak. "
Another Martial Cultivator called Wu Tu Lai stepped forward and added, "There are still some blood traces and the footprints of Demonic Beast left within. However, this disciple is unable to determine if those blood traces belong to Senior Brother Wang Zizhao or not. However, he could roughly deduce that the Demonic Beast's grade was extremely high, at least … Possessing the power of Earth Rank. "
"Demonic Beast with Earth Rank and above?"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Ma Bo Ran's body shivered and said: "Elder Bai, there really is a powerful Demonic Beast at the top of the Small Herb Peak. When we two peaks were guarding this place, there was once a disciple who wanted to go up to the top of the mountain to explore, but all of our memories were erased and left behind. Junior brother Wang is very likely to be affected by the powerful Demonic Beast at the summit … "
Ma Bo Ran's words carried away everyone's thoughts, causing them to nod their heads in unison.
Regarding this secret, Bai Bingtian was naturally very clear about it. Now that things had progressed to this step, it did seem like it was true. Wang Zizhao was going up the mountain alone and met with a strong Demonic Beast.
This matter did not seem to have anything to do with Peerless Peak, nor did it have anything to do with Ye Feng.
But... Bai Bingtian had a nagging feeling that things were not that simple.
What on earth made him feel this way?
His gloomy and cold gaze swept from Ye Feng's head to his feet, but Ye Feng remained ice-cold the entire time, with no expression whatsoever on his face. Bai Bingtian was startled, yes.
Too calm.
From head to toe, this Ye Feng's performance was just too calm, it was completely unlike his usual style.
Even though Ma Bo Ran had said that Wang Zizhao wanted to borrow Loong Aoyun's power and pester Yan Siya, he still remained indifferent, as if nothing had happened to him.
Bai Bingtian was almost certain that Wang Zizhao's death was related to this fellow in front of him.
But now, he could do nothing about Ye Feng. After all, he was unable to find any evidence on the side of the Bright Light Peak, and Ye Feng still had an obvious proof of absence.
Now, everyone unanimously thought that Wang Zizhao had been devoured by the peak Demonic Beast, which made Bai Bingtian even more speechless.
"My Bright Light Peak will definitely investigate this matter to the end. Once we find out who killed Junior Disciple Wang, my Bright Light Peak will definitely tear his body into ten thousand pieces to avenge Junior Disciple Wang. Humph! "Let's go." After saying those words hatefully, Bai Bingtian waved his sleeve and his figure immediately rushed down the mountain.
Ping Jia, Wu Tu Lai, Ma Bo Ran and a few other disciples who came with him also left with their tails between their legs.
Even though everyone had their suspicions, they could not believe that Ye Feng had secretly killed Wang Zizhao.
To them, it was more likely that the Peak Master Yan Xi was the one to take action.
Demonic Beast above Earth Rank?
This level of baneful creature could only be controlled by an expert like the Peak Master.
When they thought that there was a possibility that Peak Master Yan Xi was the hidden culprit, a few disciples from Bright and Blue Dragon peaks looked at Peak Master Yan Xi with eyes full of dread. Their speed down the mountain became even faster …
"He deserved to die."
Peak Master Yan Xi did not notice the terrifying gazes of the disciples and instead spat out two words towards their departing backs.
Although the Small Herb Peak had always been controlled in the hands of the Peerless Peak for the past ten thousand years, in truth, there was indeed a powerful object at the very top of the Small Herb Peak.
So Peak Master Yan Xi also thought that Wang Zizhao had truly been swallowed in one gulp by the peak Demonic Beast.
When he thought about how this despicable person actually thought of such a sinister method to deal with his daughter and Ye Feng, Peak Master Yan Xi became extremely angry, but … Since Wang Zizhao was able to think of using Loong Aoyun to attack the Peerless Peak, the others were naturally able to think of it as well.
He would have to be on his guard against this matter in the future …
