Chapter 835: Chapter 72 Dark Currents_3
Putting herself in his shoes, she thought that if she were Lu Qingshan, there was no way she could refuse such a condition.
After all, he had no enmity with the Demon Lord Hong Lie.
The enmity lay between herself and the Demon Lord Hong Lie.
Could it be because of ?
Ying Mingyue speculated but quickly dismissed the thought.
“Qing Ge” had no feelings towards her whatsoever.
She did not believe she had such charm.
She wasn’t narcissistic.
Besides, with the ans that “Qing Ge” exhibited, what kind of beauty couldn’t he have?
Did you not see, since yesterday, people in the Royal City have been saying, “Ying Mingyue is really lucky to marry such a person.”
So, did “Qing Ge” refuse Ying Jun purely because of his personal principles?
Ying Mingyue continued to ponder and guess in her mind.
If that’s truly the case, then a husband with unparalleled talent, excellent nature, who can honor his promises and stick to his principles, it seems indeed she got a great deal.
Although Qing Ge wasn’t particularly handso, in these respects, he was exceptionally outstanding and radiant.
These thoughts suddenly popped into Ying Mingyue’s mind.
What am I thinking? Why am I thinking about this?
She suddenly realized and imdiately drove these chaotic thoughts out of her mind.
Lu Qingshan once again picked up his teacup, slightly sipped the Dragon Blood Tea, and watched Ying Mingyue’s constantly changing expressions in silence.
The atmosphere in the room was a bit strange.
Just then, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.
A maid with horns on her head rushed in, her expression panicked.
“What is it?” Ying Mingyue snapped back to reality. Seeing the maid’s uneasy expression, she hurriedly asked.
“Miss, sothing has happened!” The maid glanced at Lu Qingshan, knowing that since the miss had directly asked, it ant there was no need to hide it from him, so she quickly reported, “Ying Jun is dead!”
“Ah?!” Ying Mingyue instinctively exclaid, shocked by the news.
She quickly turned to look at “Qing Ge,” seeing that he also wore an expression of disbelief.
“How did he die? When I saw him yesterday, he was still vigorous and lively. How did he suddenly die?” Lu Qingshan “anxiously” asked.
…..
“Father, second brother died in the region three thousand miles from the Royal City.” Inside the main hall, Ying Jie’s eyes flickered as he reported the detailed situation to Ying Lie in a deep voice.
“That is the necessary route from Blood Divine Ridge back to Jian Luo King City.
Soone must have known that second brother would return from there and ambushed him in advance, intercepting and killing him.”
“Near that region, we found fragnts of second brother’s warship, which appeared to have been shattered by sothing sharp.
The attacker was extrely brazen, with no intention of erasing any evidence, allowing the fragnts to scatter around, seemingly unafraid of being discovered by us.” Ying Jie logically detailed the situation.
“Of course, it is also possible that the situation was urgent, leaving the attacker no ti to clean up the scene.”
Ying Lie’s eyes flickered as he asked, “When did Jun’er get ambushed?”
“We had the Corpse Demon Clan investigate, and the residual aura indicated that second brother was ambushed at the ti of Shen yesterday.”
“Shen…..” Ying Lie frowned slightly, thinking of sothing, and then asked, “Does this have anything to do with that son-in-law? He left the city with Jun’er yesterday, but he returned alone first. The situation is quite suspicious.”
Lord Hong Lie imdiately connected it to the strange events of the previous day.
“I thought the sa, but I questioned the people from Blood Divine Ridge.
According to them, there seed to be so disagreent between Qing Ge and second brother. They saw Qing Ge leaving on his own warship first.
Then, after a while, second brother left Blood Divine Ridge.”
“The tis when they left were staggered.” Ying Jie said.
Why did Lu Qingshan break ties with Ying Jun impulsively and leave imdiately at that ti?
It was to create such a situation.
Ying Jie continued, “Moreover, at the ti second brother was ambushed, Qing Ge had already returned to the Royal City and accepted Ling Wu’s challenge. This is known by everyone in the city and cannot be faked.”
This was Lu Qingshan’s most crucial alibi,
“What about the subordinates he brought?” Ying Lie narrowed his eyes, “Were his subordinates in the Royal City at that ti?”
“Yes, since Qing Ge arrived in Jian Luo King City, he has always restricted his subordinates from going out easily.
So his subordinates, let alone leaving the city, didn’t even leave the mansion.” Ying Jie confird.
“He was new here, aside from the n he brought with him, he shouldn’t have any other people to command.”
Ying Lie murmured, “Moreover, Jun’er’s strength was extraordinary. For soone to kill him without a sound, the attacker must have been powerful….
Neither the tiline nor the strength aligns, so it appears it had nothing to do with Qing Ge.”
Ying Jie nodded, his face filling with anger as his voice grew lower, “Then who exactly laid hands on the second brother?”
“Investigate,” Lord Hong Lie waved a hand, “Mobilize the n, conduct a thorough investigation, and don’t miss any information.
I will imdiately inform the Royal Family about this and have them send people to assist in the investigation.”
Boom!
Ying Lie’s fury erupted, a terrifying pressure filled the entire hall, “It’s been so long since sothing like this happened!
In the Burning Moon Domain, soone dared to touch the pureblood of our War Demon Clan, dared lay a hand on my son Ying Lie, who had that much courage!”
He was furious beyond compare.
“Yes, Father.” Ying Jie also clenched his fists tightly, yelling in anger.
The assassination of a pureblood War Demon was a grievous insult, an act of rebellion.
“Wait,” seeing his eldest son about to leave, Ying Lie’s eyes flickered, and he called him back.
“Father, what else do you command?” Ying Jie asked, confused.
“Still, call Qing Ge here for questioning.” Ying Lie said.
“Ah?” Ying Jie was puzzled.
This matter clearly had nothing to do with Qing Ge, so why the extra effort?
“Just do it.” Ying Lie didn’t explain.
Because there was no logical reason, just an inexplicable feeling.
He always felt that there was sothing fishy about this matter that related to Qing Ge.
