Dragon King Hall's Legend
Chapter 1919: He Is the Senior Student Number One! Suspicious! Round Light Mirror Investigation!
"Mu Jinyu?"
"Who is he?"
Upon hearing Zhao Donglai’s words, Ji Changkong and several elders of the Ji Clan suddenly showed a look of confusion, whispering in puzzlement.
Obviously, they were very unfamiliar with the name Mu Jinyu.
In fact, not only Mu Jinyu, even among Dongyue Mansion’s many students, people like Ning Ruofan and Lu Kaige, who were among the top three senior students, were not necessarily known by these royal clan members.
Although Dongyue Mansion is a force that rivals the level of the royal clans, with many secret realms and relics in the Eastern Region shared by Dongyue Mansion and the major royal clans.
But the royal clans actually only regard the Mansion Master and Institute Head of Dongyue Mansion as rivals, and don’t care about the students.
After all, Dongyue Mansion recruits students from a wide range, unlike the royal clans whose members mostly possess a bloodline of top ten ranks foreign race.
They naturally don’t take those ordinary people seriously.
Zhao Donglai obviously knew they were probably unaware of Mu Jinyu’s existence, and calmly responded: "You may not know or be familiar with the name Mu Jinyu, but you should know his..."
Pausing for a moment, Zhao Donglai looked at Ji Changkong and a certain elder of the Ji Clan, then continued: "Previously at the end of the Tiangan Secret Realm, when you discovered Ji Changfei and others unexpectedly died within it, wasn’t it once suspected that a disciple from Dongyue Mansion secretly harmed them? You were also ready to pressure him, but ultimately due to Wei Qiankun’s intervention, you couldn’t capture him, and could only use the Yin-Yang Qiankun Sword to sense if the Yang Kun Sword was within his Qiankun Ring?"
After listening to Zhao Donglai’s introduction.
Ji Changkong and several elder who had been to Duanchang Gorge suddenly had the fog in their minds cleared and had a clear impression of Mu Jinyu!
"Was it him?!"
Murderous intent burst forth in Ji Changkong’s eyes, shooting into the sky!
However, he was no fool and wouldn’t just believe Zhao Donglai’s words and directly assume Mu Jinyu as the murderer, recklessly seeking him out!
"You claim he’s the murderer? What evidence do you have? If not, I may think you’re deliberately trying to provoke a conflict between our Ji Imperial Clan and Dongyue Mansion, wanting to use us as a tool for murder..."
The murderous intent in Ji Changkong’s eyes did not retreat and grew increasingly terrifying, making Zhao Donglai feel uncomfortable and intimidated.
Another elder also spoke in a deep voice: "Yes, at that time I also used the hand of Changkong to activate his Yinqian Sword but didn’t get any reaction. The Yinqian Sword is likely still in the Tiangan Secret Realm, how can you be sure the murderer is Mu Jinyu?"
Although the Yin-Yang Qiankun Sword in Ji Changkong and Ji Changfei’s hands were replicas, their quality grade was outstanding.
If Mu Jinyu truly killed Ji Changfei, there’s no reason he would leave behind the Yang Kun Sword!
This was why after failing to summon back the Yang Kun Sword using the replica Yinqian Sword, they stopped relentlessly pursuing Dongyue Mansion further.
Moreover, the most important point is that after the Earth Emperor Relic ended, even the clan leader of the Ji Imperial Clan returned and attempted to summon back the replica Yang Kun Sword using the replica Yinqian Sword, but also failed.
This is why the Ji Imperial Clan ultimately stopped investigating Ji Changfei’s death.
Because it’s truly difficult to trace!
Zhao Donglai quickly said: "There is, there is, I certainly have evidence, otherwise I wouldn’t dare to confidently come here!"
After speaking, Zhao Donglai hurriedly explained: "When Ji Changfei and others unexpectedly died in the Tiangan Secret Realm, the life medallions in your hands shattered, and you once tried to trace the murderer using the Round Light Mirror Technique, but it was all a blur of blood, unable to discern who the murderer was."
"After I later discovered something strange about Mu Jinyu, I attempted to use the Round Light Mirror to spy on him, also failing, with a blur of blood again, so I’m very certain he is the murderer!"
As he said this, Zhao Donglai also reminded: "By the way, I forgot to mention to you, Mu Jinyu was only an intermediate student ranked ninety-sixth when entering the Tiangan Secret Realm!"
"But upon returning, he quickly became a senior student, and not long ago, overpowered Shi Yiran, Ning Ruofan, and Lu Kaige, the top three senior students, and now is the number one student in Dongyue Mansion!"
"Is this true?!"
Upon hearing Zhao Donglai’s final words, the Ji members, who were skeptical before, couldn’t help but grow more suspicious of Mu Jinyu.
First, the Round Light Mirror failed to spy on him, and then in the Tiangan Secret Realm he soared, now becoming Dongyue Mansion’s top student!
To say he wasn’t the murderer who killed Ji Changfei, they found it hard to believe.
"Yes, I will demonstrate for you..."
Seeing their tone finally ease, Zhao Donglai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then calmly began to demonstrate the Round Light Mirror Technique.
"Buzz!!"
As the spell was activated.
The void instantly condensed, quickly manifesting a round mirror.
Then, Zhao Donglai began spying on Mu Jinyu.
On the Round Light Mirror, a faint silhouette gradually twisted and blurred, and before they could see clearly, it instantly turned into a blur of blood, no longer visible.
"It’s this blood color!"
Seeing the covering blood color, those Ji Clan elders who had previously attempted to spy the real murderer of Ji Changfei’s death outside Duanchang Gorge and failed with the Round Light Mirror Technique, suddenly stared intently, shouting excitedly.
Unexpectedly, they who had always believed Ji Changfei might have died in some bizarre way within the Tiangan Secret Realm, resulting in the Yang Kun Sword replica also lost in it.
But the final result was, the true murderer had been hiding among the crowd all along.
Missed by their oversight!
"Are you certain it’s him?"
As these Ji Clan elders and Ji Changkong were becoming increasingly excited, a steady voice sounded.
Soon after, a figure appeared among the crowd.
It was none other than the clan leader of the Ji Imperial Clan, Ji Haoran.
"Clan Leader!"
"Clan Leader!!"
Seeing Ji Haoran’s presence, they immediately greeted him with bows.
Ji Haoran gestured for them not to be overly courteous, then looked at the nervous Zhao Donglai, and said indifferently: "I’m not too sure that you aren’t playing a trick, causing the Round Light Mirror to have this blood color issue! You should remember the looks of those from Dongyue Mansion back then..."
His previous remarks were directed at Zhao Donglai, but the last sentence was meant for the Ji Clan elders and Ji Changkong.
"Remember!"
"We all remember the looks of those from Dongyue Mansion who had been to Duanchang Gorge!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Upon hearing Ji Haoran’s inquiry, this group of elders and Ji Clan members replied excitedly.
Ji Haoran nodded, speaking in a deep voice: "Then send me their images, I will personally use the Round Light Mirror to see if that same situation occurs."
"Alright!"
Upon hearing Ji Haoran, these elders had no objections and immediately transmitted the images of those people’s appearances they remembered to Ji Haoran.
Ji Haoran, after receiving their memory images, confirmed none were omitted.
Subsequently, he began to use the Round Light Mirror on each of them.
He did not start with Mu Jinyu, but began by spying on other senior students with the strongest cultivation and aura first.
He found that some were already dead, while others were cultivating within Dongyue Mansion.
All could be spied upon.
But finally, when he spied on Mu Jinyu, indeed it was exactly like the Round Light Mirror just demonstrated by Zhao Donglai.
Showing a blur of bloodlight, completely obscuring his specific appearance!
