Chapter 32 Xiangye is dead
Poof!
A huge boulder was split in half by Lu Bai's sword. The cut was smooth and flat, and traces of the sword's intention remained. It continued to destroy the boulder, making endless chirping sounds.
"This sword is good."
Before Lu Bai could comment, a lazy and melodious female voice echoed in the backyard, making Lu Bai tremble and almost throw away the long sword in his hand.
Lu Bai turned around and saw Lu Yan leaning lazily on a boulder, her narrow phoenix eyes slightly blurred, and holding a wine gourd in her hand.
This gave Lu Bai ample reason to suspect that Lu Yan appeared in front of him after being hungover.
"Why are you so mysterious? You're so scary."
After spending more than a year together, Lu Bai was no longer as fearful and fearful of her as before, and he was also quite unscrupulous in his speech.
Of course, Lu Yan didn't care either.
Rather than being humble and respectful, she prefers to communicate with people who are informal and put her on an equal footing.
To be honest, she wasn't interested in Lu Bai before and only stayed because of some reasons, but now she feels that Lu Bai is quite interesting, and she appears in front of Lu Bai more and more frequently.
"If you don't do anything bad, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door." Lu Yan chuckled nonchalantly.
"I didn't do anything wrong. If I did, you would become a ghost." Lu Bai snorted.
But when he saw Lu Yan's eyebrows raised and her phoenix eyes looking at him with a smile but not a smile, he couldn't help but feel a sudden thought and laughed awkwardly:
"You're joking, don't take it seriously... You just said that this sword is good. Please tell me what's good about it?"
He hurriedly changed the topic. It must be said that Lu Yan's eyes were still very oppressive.
"have no idea."
Lu Yan simply raised her head and took a sip of wine, revealing her snow-white and slender jade neck.
"Ahem, I said I was joking just now. Who knew you couldn't stand jokes so much..."
Lu Bai spoke loudly at first and started to explain, but in the end, he mumbled incoherently.
"Am I such a stingy person?" Lu Yan rolled her eyes at him. She was so charming and charming that she was stunned. She changed her voice and said, "Then I'll tell you what's good about this sword..."
"All ears."
Lu Bai pretended to listen carefully.
“Looks good.”
Lu Yan was crisp and authentic.
After waiting for a while, Lu Bai didn't hear any other sounds.
"That's it?"
From this, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"OK."
Lu Yan nodded casually, then shook her delicate body and disappeared from here.
"Forehead……"
Lu Bai was speechless. He knew that Lu Yan must be retaliating for what he said before and refused to tell the truth.
Alas, offending a vengeful woman is really troublesome.
Lu Bai sighed irritably.
However, he was still in a good mood. After all, he got a spiritual sword of unknown grade. However, this sword came from the hands of the great commander, so it was definitely not an ordinary grade.
In the following time, Lu Bai was wielding the white jade sword in the courtyard. The sword light suddenly appeared, the sword energy was intertwined, and it was extremely sharp. The more he used it, the easier it became.
Moreover, he also discovered at this time that when he activated the black and white sword light contained in his dantian, as the sword light poured into the jade sword and then slashed out, the power became even more powerful.
"My dear third brother, are you ready?"
Lu Bai's eyes were cold as he jumped up onto the courtyard wall, holding a sword in one hand and looking up towards the direction of the imperial city.
…
For three consecutive days, there was no disturbance in the entire desert city.
No one would bother Lu Bai anymore.
He also enjoyed his leisure time, practicing sword practice alone in the courtyard.
Strangely enough, Chun Ya, who was doing nothing, would disappear from time to time, which made him sigh: "The little bird out of the cage is free, and I don't remember that there is such a highness like him at home."
The fourth day.
Lu Bai got up early to practice his sword as usual. The morning glow filled the sky, but there was still a hint of coolness in the air.
As he practiced swordplay in the past few days, Lu Bai's sword became faster and faster, and he became more and more proficient. The terrifying sword energy covered the void, destroying everything.
At this moment, an explosive piece of news instantly swept across and ignited the entire desert city.
Everyone who heard the news was shocked.
Even Lu Bai couldn't help but feel stunned when he heard the news, and then his body felt cold.
The fifth commander, Xiang Ye, is dead!
The desert city is boiling!
Everyone couldn’t believe it!
Countless people are talking about this matter. The streets, alleys, ruins of pavilions, and military camps are all talking about this matter.
The second, third, and fourth commanders could not help but be surprised. They personally went to Xiangye's residence and did not miss any clues.
Immediately, the soldiers took action to blockade the desert city and search every corner of the city.
Everyone speculated who the murderer was.
As time passed and the investigation deepened, more and more people knew about the matter, and the news spread.
Xiangye died at home. He was knocked unconscious with poison, then his head was cut off and thrown into a chamber pot!
Hearing that Xiang Ye's death was so tragic, countless people took a deep breath.
Xiangye is not an ordinary soldier, but a fifth commander. His status is not low. Some of his words and deeds represent the entire Mocheng and even the vast continent!
He was beheaded at home and his head was thrown into a chamber pot. This was an insult to Mocheng and contempt for the Lu Kingdom!
The dignified five commanders were actually beheaded at home. It was a shame for the entire continent!
And when this was reported back to the imperial city in the future, it really shocked the government and the public.
Of course, this is a later story.
Soon, when everyone was speculating on the murderer, they all pointed the finger at Lu Bai.
There are many people who have enemies with Xiangye, but only Lu Bai has such assassination strength!
Drugged!
It shows that the murderer is not strong enough and needs external assistance.
Behead him and throw him into a chamber pot!
It shows that the murderer had a deep hatred for Xiangye, so he adopted such a bad killing method.
These two items seem to be tailor-made for Lu Bai.
Plus, the two of them never get along!
There is also a motive.
Therefore, of course, Lu Bai became the target of suspicion.
Except for the fourth commander, almost everyone else believed that he was the murderer of the fifth commander!
At this time, Lu Bai was confused.
At a specially held commanders' meeting, the second commander and the fourth commander had a fierce confrontation over this matter, but no one could convince the other.
The commander-in-chief sat indifferently, his eyes flashing, and he remained silent.
This meeting did not produce any effective progress.
Of course, Lu Bai is safe for the time being. After all, he is in the residence of the fourth commander. Who without a good eye would dare to catch him?
There are undercurrents surging in the city, and all kinds of news are flying behind the scenes.
When he first learned of the news of Xiang Ye's death, Lu Bai had already sensed that the matter might be implicated in him. But now when he heard the details of his death, everything matched him, and he was even more certain that his death
guess.
"Who is it?!"
Lu Bai's expression was gloomy. He couldn't imagine who killed Xiang Ye and then framed him.
The only thing he thought about was the Imperial City, but he had a vague feeling that something was wrong there, but he couldn't explain it.
"Your Highness, please eat something first."
