Chapter 1105: The Might of the Holy Soul Pearl! (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

However, the most urgent thing now was not to find the Holy Soul Pearl and the thief. After all, this matter had been dragged on for so many years. He did not care if he had to wait another day or two. The most important thing now was to fool Han Jingshu.

Although Han Jingshu denied it, the cloaked man was sure that Han Jingshu had heard his conversation with Lie Feng. After entering the manor for so long, he had more or less observed and understood Han Jingshu. She was not a brainless woman.

She might not know what the Holy Soul Pearl was, but she would definitely be able to guess that they were outsiders. Moreover, they had another motive for entering the Crown Prince Manor. The Holy Soul Pearl and the thief were one of them, but the other important reason was that even Gu Lady Yi Man did not know.

“Where’s Lie Feng? Go and wake him up. Let him go to the Crown Princess Consort’s courtyard to investigate her situation. If necessary…” The cloaked man gestured cruelly. If necessary, he would kill Han Jingshu again!

Gu Lady went to call Lie Feng.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

She knocked on the door, but there was no reaction from Lie Feng. Did he not hear her? How could an expert sleep so soundly? Or could it be that Lie Feng was unwilling to talk to her?

Gu Lady’s status beside the cloaked man was indeed not as noble as Lie Feng. Thinking about it this way, Gu Lady was quite disgusted. What was he showing off for? He was just a little more skilled than her! In terms of ability to raise Gu, who lost to who?

Gu Lady knocked on the door roughly and said angrily, “Get up! I’m not looking for you! It’s the lord!”

However, there was still a dead silence in response.

At this moment, Gu Lady realized that something was wrong. No matter how much Lie Feng looked down on her, he would never be disrespectful to the lord. She mentioned the lord and with Lie Feng’s personality, he would have long served the lord.

The door was locked from the inside, but the window could be pulled open from the outside. Gu Lady went around to the window and pushed it open. She was immediately dumbfounded. The room was dim, but moonlight and the pearl light of the lanterns under the porch shone in and landed on the cold corpse on the ground.

Yes, Gu Lady was extremely sure that Lie Feng was already a corpse.

“Sir! Lie Feng is dead!” Gu Lady reported to the cloaked man.

The cloaked man waved his robe and came to Lie Feng’s room murderously. Gu Lady lit the lamp and the two of them carefully looked at Lie Feng’s corpse. “He was bitten to death by a Gu worm!” Gu Lady pointed at a small swelling on Lie Feng’s neck.

She was the Gu Lady, so she naturally could tell which wounds were bitten by ordinary insects and which ones were bitten by Gu worms. Although he was bitten to death by a Gu worm, how could the injury on Lie Feng’s face be explained?

He had been beaten into a pig’s head! It didn’t look like a punch, nor did it look like a slap from a human. Those extremely small claw marks actually looked like… he had been slapped by a Gu worm!

But wasn’t this too strange? Can you imagine a Gu worm the size of a fingernail riding on a man’s nose and slapping him?

She couldn’t bear to look at it!

What kind of insect was so violent?

Moreover, from the looks of it, Lie Feng’s face was swollen. He was first beaten into a pig’s head before being bitten to death by Gu worms. If he was bitten to death first, the dead person’s blood would stop flowing, and the corpse would not be swollen.

There were no signs of a fight in the room. In other words, Lie Feng was lying there being beaten up and did not fight back.

It was naturally not that he did not want to fight back, but he could not.

One had to know that Lie Feng was a Gu Venerable. How heaven-defying was a Gu worm to be able to beat him up until he couldn’t fight back?

Since it was already so heaven-defying, it could just bite him to death. What was the point of beating him into a pig’s head? Besides, it didn’t have to bite him anymore. Lie Feng could die by himself, so why did it have to bite him again?

What kind of indecent worm was this?!

It was not unheard of for a Gu Master to die at the hands of a Gu worm he had refined. Therefore, the cloaked man and Gu Lady did not expect Lie Feng to be killed by an external worm. They only thought that he had refined some heaven-defying evil Gu. The evil Gu went crazy and lost control, counter attacking its master.

This could explain why Lie Feng died so… strange. If it hadn’t gone crazy, which insect would do such a thing to a human?

The cloaked man narrowed his eyes and said, “I’m afraid that worm has already escaped. Let’s not care about it for now. Get someone to deal with Lie Feng’s corpse. I’ll personally go to the Crown Princess Consort’s place to see her situation..”
