Old Master Seventh retracted his gaze after a long ti.
"Co, let's continue."
The servant nodded. After setting up the chessboard, he hesitated for a mont before speaking in a low voice.
"Old Master Seventh, about the third highness and that kid…"
Old Master Seventh glanced at the servant and calmly spoke.
"You are paying a lot of attention to the kid."
The servant lowered his head and didn't speak.
"It's the youngest's nature to be unscrupulous. He usually looks gentle but in reality, he doesn't have any feelings. This is how he stood out from the crowd and beca my disciple. It's also what I think highly about him."
"As for the kid, whether he can see through the youngest's thoughts or whether he can figure out sothing from here will depend on his wisdom. In this chaotic world, fools won't be able to live for long."
After Old Master Seventh finished speaking, he looked at the sky. Dawn was about to arrive.
In Port 79, Xu Qing sat on the deck of his magic boat with a contemplative look. As the sun rose and the first rays of the morning dissipated the night sky, the mont they landed on him, Xu Qing's gaze beca deep.
"Firstly, 30 years ago, the competition was held on the rfolk race's island. After that, the rfolk race beca allies and the relationship between the two sides was naturally one of dubious unity. Moreover, that day in the Sixth Peak's store, when the rfolk youth saw the second highness, his expression was filled with fear. This ans that there's a high chance that the second highness killed a lot of rfolks in the competition 30 years ago."
"Secondly, the disciples of the seven peak lords would probably not openly go against their masters' intentions. The second highness' attitude towards the rfolk youth clearly shows the problem. In that case, the third highness' action of killing the rfolks can be understood!"
"If so, why did the third highness invite the rfolks to the Seven Blood Eyes? Bringing them here and killing them… and doing it in front of ."
"Third highness has other motives. If I were the third highness, why would I do this? In what kind of situation would I kill soone in front of others?"
Xu Qing's eyes narrowed in focus. After a long ti, he got an answer.
"There's only one situation where I would do this. I want to use the evidence against the rfolk race to blackmail them. If I don't have any evidence, I'll create it! At the sa ti, the reason I'll kill them in front of soone is to increase the value of killing. While extorting the rfolk race, I will also be selling a favor to that person."
"The prerequisite is that this person has value."
Xu Qing recalled the scene when his captain told him about the incident on Sea Lizard Island with a spurious smile. The other party clearly had so information channels he didn't know about.
If the captain had it, the third highness might have it too.
Xu Qing recalled that when he escaped from Sea Lizard Island, there were auras that had locked onto him. Back then, he was at the bottom of the sea and couldn't see who they were. At this mont, his eyes glead as he had more guesses.
"Since the Seven Blood Eyes allowed this to happen, it can only an that… they are going to battle the rfolk race!"
"No matter what, I have to leave for so ti!"
Xu Qing wasn't sure if his analysis was completely correct. He planned to leave for so ti and see if there was a follow-up to this matter. If everything was really calm, it wouldn't be too late for him to return.
He was only one step away from becoming a tenth level Qi Condensation cultivator. If he broke through to the Foundation Building realm in the future, he would have the qualifications to ascend the mountain and the right to gain the benefits of the Seven Blood Eyes.
He would earn at least 5,000 spirit stones a month. Moreover, as long as the Seven Blood Eyes existed, he could continue to obtain them. This had tempted Xu Qing for a long ti. Of course, compared to this, survival was more important.
Xu Qing didn't hesitate and chose to leave first and observe.
Moreover, he felt that he could make use of this ti to do sothing major that had been buried in his heart for a long ti.
A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. He wanted to completely remove the thorn in his flesh.
That was… the Diamond Sect's ancestor.
If he didn't kill this person, it would be difficult for Xu Qing to get a good sleep.
Xu Qing didn't waste any ti. When dawn broke, he stored the magic boat and headed straight for the Homicide Departnt.
"The Diamond Sect is a sect after all. Even though they are relatively weak, it's very difficult to hide their whereabouts when they migrate. To the Seven Blood Eyes, all the movents in its sphere of influence are no secret."
As a mber of the Homicide Departnt, Xu Qing had the right to read the records in the departnt. He knew that a large portion of them recorded the changes within the range of influence of Seven Blood Eyes.
Although the details weren't as detailed as the Intelligence Departnt, it was easier for Xu Qing to check the records here than to go check them in the Intelligence Departnt.
After he arrived at the Homicide Departnt, he headed straight for the archives.
His reputation in the Homicide Departnt was even greater than the outside world. Other than his outstanding performance in the Night Dove operation, this reputation was built from the heads of one wanted criminal after another.
Hence, the disciple in the archives was very polite and allowed Xu Qing to check the records alone. Not long later, Xu Qing finally found the clues he wanted from so ssy news that the Seven Blood Eyes didn't value.
"Joined the Litu Sect?"
Xu Qing looked at the record in front of him and his eyes slowly narrowed. The people of the Litu Sect were all crazy people. The attitudes of the other forces toward the Litu Sect were one of disgust and wariness. They would often stay far away and not interact much with them.
"This shouldn't be because of . It should be because the compensation gift that the second highness wanted back then was too heavy, so much so that after the Diamond Sect paid the price, their foundation was greatly damaged and their future was bleak, so they didn't dare to stay in the Seven Blood Eyes' territory."
Xu Qing stroked his chin and morized the movents of the Diamond Sect recorded in the file. He then left the Homicide Departnt.
