From the moment the Tiger Soul awakened, I became invincible.

Chapter 57 The Mastermind

Hearing Qin Wu's words.

Everyone's expression changed.

Someone immediately went to examine Wang Guiyuan's body.

On Wang Guiyuan's headless corpse, the knife marks were unusually clear, perfectly matching the weapon of the Black Mountain bandit leader.

This immediately shocked everyone.

Given Wang Guiyuan's strength, how could he possibly be killed by the Black Mountain Bandits under normal circumstances?

The Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion pondered for a moment, then spoke:

"We all know the strength of the Black Mountain bandits. Although they are dangerous, it is mainly because they are elusive and can appear and disappear without a trace."

It's almost impossible for them to kill Wang Guiyuan unless their strength has increased dramatically recently, or... someone helps them.

At this point, the Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion looked at Qin Wu with a strange expression.

Doesn't this prove that Qin Wu might have colluded with the Black Mountain bandits?

It can't be that the Black Mountain bandits suddenly became stronger; that just doesn't make sense.

The expressions on everyone else's faces were exactly the same; they all felt that Qin Wu had dug a pit for them.

Baili Yufeng even had a smile on his face.

This kid actually walked into a dead end.

Then Qin Wu spoke:

"This Black Mountain bandit leader is not dead yet. You can check his internal energy. If nothing unexpected happens, there must be something strange about his meridians."

Without hesitation, the head of the Flying Swallow Pavilion walked up to the leader of the Black Mountain Bandits and took his pulse.

A moment later, his expression changed slightly.

"This is……"

"Let me take a look!"

Another person came over, and after taking their pulse, their complexion also changed.

"I have never seen such a pulse before. I am also a martial artist in the Meridian Opening Realm, but the path of his internal energy is completely different from ours."

"What's going on?!"

Everyone's faces showed shock.

Qin Wu explained calmly:

"Back when I was in Yonghua City, I saw a similar situation where someone's strength suddenly increased in a short period of time. I even asked the Iron Sword Sect Master to investigate this matter."

Mentioning the Iron Sword Sect Master caused many people's expressions to change again.

The Iron Sword Sect held a significant position in Xuanzhou, and they were naturally aware of its annihilation.

If this is related to the matter, then it means that behind this matter lies a terrifying existence that even the Iron Sword Sect cannot withstand.

In addition, there's this strange circulation pattern of internal energy...

Someone blurted out:

"Could it be that the dragon crossing the river behind these Black Mountain bandits? That outcast from Kunlun Ruins must have some kind of true qi technique. Only in this way can all this be explained."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wu's lips curled into a smile.

Sometimes, the answer only seems credible when it comes from someone else.

Qin Wu observed Baili Yufeng throughout the entire process.

When the name Jiang Long was mentioned, he noticed a subtle change in Baili Yufeng's eyes.

Qin Wu understood.

He originally thought that Baili Yufeng had other plans, but now it seems that Baili Yufeng, the former pride of heaven, has probably already sided with that foreign dragon.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Baili Yufeng with a playful expression.

Baili Yufeng noticed Qin Wu's expression, frowned, and then addressed the crowd:

"This matter is still open to discussion. As for Qin Wu, since the Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion has vouched for him, I won't say anything..."

Before he could finish speaking, someone interrupted:

"Senior Baili! If it truly is that insurgent dragon crossing the river, it is far beyond the capabilities of Tianfeng City alone. We should inform the Martial Alliance and gather all forces in Xuanzhou to jointly resist this dragon!"

The speaker was from a faction affiliated with the Martial Alliance of Tianfeng City.

Everyone else echoed this sentiment.

Seeing this, Baili Yufeng could only say in a deep voice:

"If the mastermind behind this is indeed that powerful figure from out of town, then this matter must be extremely dangerous, and we should definitely inform the Martial Alliance to discuss it together."

As he spoke, he walked up to the leader of the Black Mountain bandits, suddenly struck out, and killed the man with a single palm strike.

"Senior Baili, what are you doing?"

Qin Wu timely expressed his dissatisfaction, saying:

"If this person is related to the powerful outsiders, he must know a lot of information. If you suddenly kill him now, wouldn't that put us in a very passive position?"

Baili Yufeng calmly explained:

"How could a mere Black Mountain bandit possibly know the specific details about the Crossing Dragon? We should kill him first to eliminate future troubles."

Although the others looked helpless, no one said anything because of Baili Yufeng's prestige.

Only the Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion frowned.

After Qin Wu's reminder last time, he also sensed that something was wrong.

What Baili Yufeng is doing now makes him even more uneasy.

This journey of riding the wind for a hundred miles...

Could there really be a problem?

Thinking of Baili Yufeng's prestige in Tianfeng City and his own strength, the Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion felt a chill of fear.

In the entire Tianfeng City, no one could stop Baili Yufeng when he was completely unprepared.

With the matter resolved, the group of people, their feelings mixed, parted ways.

The Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion walked up to Qin Wu and asked:

"Did you really kill the Wang family and the Black Mountain bandits all by yourself?"

"By sheer luck."

Qin Wu answered.

Upon hearing this, the Pavilion Master of Feiyan Pavilion pondered for a moment, then nodded and remarked with emotion:

"Looks like you've got good luck, kid. The merger of the Black Mountain Bandits and the Wang Family Fire Gang has made you the ultimate winner."

Qin Wu's lips curled into a smile, but he offered no explanation.

News of the dragon crossing the river appearing in Tianfeng City spread like wildfire.

With so many people present, it was impossible to keep it a secret.

Not long after, not only the martial arts alliance members, but also other forces received the news.

Blood Fiend Alliance.

After hearing the news of Jiang Long's appearance, many evil figures gathered together.

The reason they gathered together was because of the dragon crossing the river.

Smiling Tiger Zhou Fugui said with a chuckle:

"Gentlemen, that powerful figure has appeared in Tianfeng City. Should we intervene?"

Night Cryer Zheng Er spoke directly:

"Nonsense, that outcast has the True Qi Technique. We are all martial artists at the Meridian Opening Realm. If we want to advance further, only the True Qi Technique can do it."

Don't tell me you can resist plotting it.

Zhou Fugui laughed:

"Of course I want the True Qi Technique, but this matter has already blown up. If we go there, the Martial Alliance won't stand idly by either, and I'm afraid quite a few people will die..."

Zhao Wushang, standing to the side with the bloody handprint, sneered:

"When the time comes, whoever dies will be out of luck. Anyway, I'm determined to have this True Qi Technique."

Also, I heard that Qin Wu was there too.

Last time, he killed the lame Yama, and even Xue Sanniang died at his hands. I'll take this kid's life too.

His eyes were ruthless.

The others did not object.

Xue Sanniang and Zhao Wushang with the Blood Handprint were having an affair.

Now that Xue Sanniang is dead, it's normal for Zhao Wushang to want revenge.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Fugui spoke with a playful look in his eyes:

"Then you'd better be careful. That kid's strength is growing very fast. Zhu Xu might have been lucky to die at his hands, but Xue Sanniang is also dead, so it can only be a matter of strength."

"Of course I know."

Zhao Wushang, with his blood-stained handprint, had a gloomy expression, filled with murderous intent.

"That brat, I will kill him with my own hands!"
