232: Chapter 131: Killing Two Birds with One Stone, Undercutting a Rival, Big Harvest 232: Chapter 131: Killing Two Birds with One Stone, Undercutting a Rival, Big Harvest “Everything is going according to plan, it’s just that with this incident, I’m afraid we’ll have to stay put for a while.”

Li Ming thought for a mont, took a photo of the black tal, and sent it to Chen Jinglong, “Dean, what kind of interstellar precious tal is this?

I’ve never seen it before, and I can’t find it on the StarNet.”

Chen Jinglong did not respond.

Li Ming frowned, feeling increasingly uneasy as he stared at the several boxes in front of him.

This stuff seems very unusual, if it’s all absorbed, would Torch go mad?

Li Ming pondered, yet his hands did not stop, he continued to absorb these black tal blocks.

However, he did not absorb them until they completely disappeared.

After reaching a certain limit, he stopped and set them aside.

This cycle repeated, over and over again.

If these things really disappeared and Torch went mad, he would be the first suspect.

Torch is not a governnt civilization, they don’t follow procedures or evidence.

They are a terrorist organization, reckless in their actions.

For safety’s sake, Li Ming decided to leave them with a shell, absorbing most of the tal energy, but without any visible signs on the surface.

anwhile, the bathroom where Sain died had been put under martial law, surrounded inside and out by city guards, the intelligence departnt, the Secret Council, and the Departnt of Foreign Affairs all had representatives present.

In the temporary lab built outside, Sain’s headless body was placed in the center, his head set above it, eyes wide open in death and unseeing.

Duke Bai Ye, accompanied by Guyate, stood to one side, while Ren Cangsong, with others, stood on the opposite side.

The atmosphere on the scene was tense, and everyone’s thoughts varied.

Duke Bai Ye broke the silence unceremoniously, “So this is the security that Blue Star prides itself on, a class C life form, just died here silently, and it took more than ten minutes before he was found.”

“Ridiculous!”

Ren Cangsong’s face turned sour, and he said in a deep voice, “Rest assured, Your Grace, we are screening the surveillance recordings.

Everyone who entered this bathroom after Sain will be thoroughly investigated.”

Duke Bai Ye snorted coldly, “First it was Prince Youke, now Sain, both are significant figures to us Sela.

What exactly is Blue Star trying to do!”

Ren Cangsong frowned and was about to speak when soone rushed in, holding a docunt and showing it to him.

Ren Cangsong glanced at it, his face a mix of shock, confusion, and disbelief.

“Did you find sothing?” Duke Bai Ye was the first to press for answers.

“We caught the murderer,” Ren Cangsong said with an indescribable tone, showing no excitent.

“Hmm?” Duke Bai Ye quickly stepped forward to look at the docunt.

Ren Cangsong did not stop him.

“A mber of Torch?” Duke Bai Ye’s brows furrowed, then he exclaid, “A class E life form?

Are you mocking ?”

“Tell , how could a class E life form kill a class C life form!?”

“His blood tested positive for Sain’s blood, and we found the murder weapon.

He has also confessed to killing Sain,” one of Ren Cangsong’s n responded imdiately.

“Additionally, according to the autopsy, we found that Sain’s gene cell activity was extrely low.

According to the data model, it is highly likely that he was suppressed by a gene inhibitor.”

“We found tiny puncture wounds in his chest and spine, which might corroborate this story.

Although his muscles were highly tense before death, there were no significant signs of struggle.”

Duke Bai Ye, upon hearing this, showed no change in expression, instead, he questioned, “Then explain to who put the gene inhibitor on him.”

“There were no signs of struggle on his body, so he either did it voluntarily or it was forced upon him by soone much stronger than he was,” Ren Cangsong took over, projecting a virtual screen and pulling up a video, then zooming in—

“This is one of your n, all surveillance videos after entering the spaceport, at the ti of 8:22, Sain seed to have noticed sothing, busily operating on his smart device.”

“However, we have checked his smart device and there were no ssages sent to anyone.”

“But he anonymously reported a person as a suspect.

Security personnel discovered this quickly and arrested the individual.

After verification, it was found to be soone from Torch.”

Duke Bai Ye’s brow furrowed as he stared at Sain on the screen, looking at him from all angles, his expression a mix of suspicion and excitent.

What exactly was he doing?

And he even reported a mber of Torch?

So Torch killed him for that?

That seems far-fetched.

Guyate hesitated before saying, “I have a lead; he asked for a spiritual barrier.”

“A spiritual barrier?” Ren Cangsong’s expression subtly changed; he quickly took the file and looked through it carefully, frowning as he said, “We did not find it on him.”

“What did he want a spiritual barrier for?

To guard against ntal attacks?

From a Spiritual Ability User?

Was he communicating secretly with a Spiritual Ability User?”

“Was he controlled?” Ren Cangsong rapidly made multiple conjectures.

One of Ren Cangsong’s n added, “After the murder, the culprit hurriedly left, but his trail was very obvious.

We quickly captured him, but we didn’t find the spiritual barrier on him.

We’ll go back and check the route now.”

“Did he say why he killed Sain?” Duke Bai Ye demanded.

“He said…” the man hesitated, seeming to hold back words.

Duke Bai Ye discontentedly said, “Is there sothing you’re trying to hide from ?”

“He claid he was guided by a Dinsional God,” he ground out through clenched teeth, and the atmosphere in the room fell still.

Duke Bai Ye looked astonished.

Guided by a Dinsional God?

The excuse was far-fetched, and it actually sounded as if—

Ever since the civilization that had co into contact with Dinsional Creatures over a hundred years ago had been destroyed—

The remaining survivors had been absorbed into Torch, and using Dinsional Creatures to create disturbances had beco a crucial tactic for them, with significant destructive capability.
