I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory Chapter 285.1

The team leaders expression changed abruptly: Lets go!

About an hour later, they arrived at a secluded cave.

Inside the cave, they discovered more than a dozen corpses, already sowhat decayed and emitting a foul stench. Their faces were not very clear, but from the clothing on their bodies, it was recognizable that they were Wu Xiongying and his companions.

Besides these corpses, there was also a colorful bird nearby.

This bird was called the Tracker Bird, a very rare species with a sense of sll even keener than a dogs, adept at tracking.

The Great Wu royal family had always kept Tracker Birds to morize the scents of the royal family mbers.

If a mber of the royal family went missing, they could use the bird to find them.

Wu Xiongyings body was found with the help of this bird.

This must be His Highnesss body! The team leaders face was extrely grave.

When he had received this task, he had a premonition that the Seventh Prince might already be dead or never coming back.

But now, seeing with his own eyes, his guess was finally confird.

Looking at the unrecognizable body of the Seventh Prince, he didnt know how he would report back to the Emperor.

So, the most important thing now was to uncover the truth.

Everyone, look around and see what else you can find!

Yes, Lord Liu!

They all dispersed to search for clues.

The team leader squatted down, bowed to the body in front of him, and said, Your Highness, in order to find out the truth, to catch the real culprit behind the scenes, and to avenge Your Highness, I must be disrespectful! If I offend in any way, please forgive !

After speaking, he began to examine Wu Xiongyings body.

He found that the body was relatively intact, but it was covered with various wounds, including cuts, sword slashes, and palm strikes.

The cuts and sword slashes were poisoned, so the blood appeared black, and the skin was severely ulcerated.

The others were more or less the sa.

At this point, based on the information at hand, he could roughly infer what had happened.

The Prince and his companions must have encountered an ambush and gone through a fierce battle before escaping.

But they were too severely injured and soon after perished here.

The person behind the scenes, unable to find the bodies of the Prince and his companions, could only recklessly spread rumors and fra Great Xia.

Although this was his speculation, he felt it was very close to the truth.

However, at that mont, he noticed sothing different.

Huh? Whats this?

He pried open Wu Xiongyings hand and found several blurry blood characters underneath.

Those who kill Great Xia!

The team leaders expression turned strange.

He had just ruled out Great Xia, but now there was new evidence suggesting that Great Xia was responsible.

Lord Liu, co over here and look at this! soone called out.

What have you found? The team leader walked over.

He saw that one of the bodies was holding a saber, which was neither the persons own nor one from Great Wu. It seed to have been wrested from the assailant.

This blade it looks like a military saber used by Great Xia! The team leader fell into deep thought.

When he went to the Great Xia military camp just now, he paid special attention to the weapons there and noticed that the swords were identical to those of Great Xia.

Alright, another piece of evidence pointing to Great Xia.

Master Liu, theres sothing else here! soone else shouted.

The team leader went over and found a few words carved with a finger on a stone next to a corpse: Great Xia, die!

The team leader:

Okay, the third piece of evidence points to Great Xia.

Master Liu, look at this!

The team leader walked over and saw a corpse clutching a piece of cloth tightly in its hand.

This piece of cloth seed to be torn from a garnt, and it had a very distinct Xia character on it.

The team leader:

Impressive, the fourth piece of evidence points to Great Xia.

About an hour later, a middle-aged man dressed in a black brocade robe arrived.

The team leader asked, How is the situation? Have you found anything?

The person before him was not only a Divine Detective but also an experienced forensic investigator, whom he had invited to investigate the case together.

Reporting to Master Liu, I have examined the wounds on their bodies!

The saber wounds on their bodies were mostly inflicted by the sa type of saber, which is four chi three chun long and one chun thick, with a rather distinct curvature of the blade! After comparison, they were injured by the military blades of Great Xia!

(TLN: 1 Chi=0.3 m 1 chun=3 cm)

As for the sword wounds, the injuries are varied and cannot be conclusively identified!

The poison they were afflicted with is actually snake venom, from a snake called the five-step snake! This snakes venom is extrely potent. An ordinary person bitten by it would not survive more than five steps! His Highness and the others, being skilled and supported by internal energy, could last half an hour! If the poison is not neutralized within half an hour, it will penetrate deep into the marrow and beco incurable!

His Highness and the others must have been fighting the assailants at the ti, and it seems they were unable to neutralize the poison in ti!

The five-step snake is a regional venomous snake found only in the Azure Dragon Mountain Range of Great Xia!

And theres this

The other party continued to report.

The team leader was amazed.

All the evidence points towards Great Xia!

The evidence is overwhelming and so conclusive that no one would believe it wasnt the work of Great Xia!

So, I believe that this matter is greatly related to Great Xia, and it is very likely their doing! the Divine Detective concluded.

Its absolutely impossible for it to be Great Xia! Theyre not stupid. If they took action, they wouldnt leave behind so many obvious pieces of evidence! The saber from Great Xia, the poison from Great Xia, and even the cloth from Great Xia

Moreover, they have no reason to kill His Highness! We had Xinyan go to investigate just now, and it confird my suspicion! Therefore, it must be soone framing and setting up a trap, attempting to provoke a dispute between the two Empires! the leader said gravely.
