"It's a pity that you treat him as your benefactor, and he may not be sincere to you." Li Xiuran took a breath and calmed down his mood.

Xiu'e looked at him in confusion: "What does this mean by sir?"

"Do you really think he is helping you? He is actually using you!" Chi Qingwan said earnestly: "Last time you were attacked in prison, who do you think is the murderer who wants to kill you?"

Xiu'e frowned and said, "Aren't she a member of Sun Pei's school?"

"I thought so at that time, but it was obviously a bit unreasonable."

Li Xiuran said lightly: "Sun Pei was also imprisoned at that time. How did he send people? His Majesty already knew the case. Is it necessary to kill you to silence me?

This will only backfire and make His Majesty angry, and thus issue a thorough investigation. Even Peng Ce and Guan Chenghe behind him may not dare to do this.

Moreover, at that time, I was investigating Sun Pei’s crimes under the order of Your Majesty. I really wanted to save him. Isn’t it easier to send someone to obstruct me from investigating the case?

So, it’s not him who wants to kill you at all, but someone else!”

Xiu'e seems to have realized something: "What sir means..."

"That's right, the real murderer is the one who teaches you the method of practice!" Li Xiuran said in a deep voice.

Xiu'e's eyes trembled in an instant, and her already pale face seemed to be a little pale again. Her face was full of surprise and disbelief. The benefactor she had always been grateful to in her heart was the one who wanted to kill her?!

"Why did he do this?"

Lin Fengkai looked at her and said, "Didn't you figure it out yet? Because he wanted to borrow your hand to kill Zhao Kang to silence him. Once Zhao Kang died, your value of use would be gone. Instead, he might expose him. He doesn't want to be exposed, so he naturally has to silence you."

Xiu'e suddenly realized, but was still a little puzzled: "Since he wants to kill Zhao Kang to silence him, why don't he do it yourself? Why do you have to borrow my hand and finally kill me to silence him, and go around so much?"

Chi Qingwan said: "It is inevitable that killing Zhao Kang will lead to suspicion. If the government is alarmed to investigate, it is likely to find out his existence. What he fears most is to expose himself.

Borrow your hand to kill him, and finally the government will get rid of you, so that his existence can be perfectly covered up."

Xiu'e suddenly realized.

"How did he come to you? Do you know his identity?" Li Xiuran looked at her and asked seriously.

"I was poisoned by the Liu family that day, and my resentment was uneasy in my heart, turning into ghosts and wandering around the Zhao family. I originally wanted to seek revenge on Zhao Kang and Liu family, but the Zhao family has a guard, and I am no match for me. I was alerted by them as soon as I got close to me. I was almost injured by them. I had to retreat temporarily and wait for the opportunity.

It was at this moment that he took the initiative to come to me and said he was passing by. He happened to find me. Seeing that I was full of resentment, he asked me if I had any grievances.

After I told him my experience, he passed on my martial arts and guided me on the path of cultivation. After that, he left, and didn't say much to me."

Li Xiuran frowned and said, "Did you see his appearance?"

Xiu'e shook her head: "He has put on a cloak and has never taken it off. I have never seen his face."

Li Xiuran asked, "Can he tell me what he taught you?"

Xiu'e said without hesitation: "Of course, the technique is called "Qingming Jue". Do you want me to write down the content and hand it over to you?"

"No, just have a name."

Li Xiuran looked at Xiang Kun and said, "Can you know that "Qingming Jue" is the practice of the magic cultivator?"

Xiang Kun also followed, frowned and said, "There are countless magical techniques, and I don't know much about this, and I have never heard of it before.

However, since the murderer is so cautious and has never even shown his face, even if he finds out, he may not be able to confirm his identity."

Also... Li Xiuran nodded. This person was cautious everywhere and would definitely not leave such obvious omissions. In the end, it might not be possible to determine his identity, but also be misled.

However, this person can pass on the magical skills to Xiu'e. The person sent to kill her before was also a demon cultivator, and they are all related to the magical trait. Could it be that the mastermind behind this rebellion is the demonic force?

wrong!

Li Xiuran suddenly remembered that when he investigated Sun Pei's crime last time, Lin Yanjiang asked her if she had heard Zhao Kang talk about bribing Sun Pei. Xiu'e said that she had heard him mention that he had a close relationship with Sun Pei, and even he had a relationship in the capital.

He didn't care at that time. Now he thought that Zhao Kang was probably not boasting, but that this was indeed the case!

And this relationship that makes him proud must be an official relationship. Otherwise, if it is a demonic force, he would probably not have time to hide it, so how could he deliberately boast about it?

You know, colluding with the devil is a serious crime to behead!

The reason why he sold so much mineral materials to the other party was probably because of the other party's position in the court!

In other words, behind this rebellion was the conspiracy between the people in the court and the demonic forces!

Li Xiuran was excited and looked at Xiu'e tightly and said, "Last time you said Zhao Kang had mentioned to you that he had a relationship in the capital. Have he told you who is this relationship?"

"No, he just mentioned it when he threatened me, and didn't say much to me." Xiu'e shook her head.

No? A hint of disappointment flashed across Li Xiuran's face. The person who taught Xiu'e's martial arts left no clues, and Zhao Kang was wiped out again, and the relationship he said was in trouble. In this case, how can we find out the mastermind behind the scenes?

Li Xiuran frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up, and there was a clue!

Last time Xiu'e was attacked in the Demon Suppressing Division prison, according to her judgment, the murderer was probably a demon cultivator.

The master of the Demon Suppression Division is doing the errand of destroying demons. It is not easy for a demon cultivator to break into the Demon Suppression Division, not to mention that he has also touched the Demon Suppression Division prison with more strict garrisons. It is impossible for him to do it!

He can get into the Demon Suppression Division and get into the prison, so someone must be helping him!

And this person must be related to the mastermind behind the scenes, and this person must be the one from the Demon Suppression Department!

Otherwise, he would not have been able to sneak into the Demon Suppression Department and brought the demon cultivator who attacked Xiu'e into prison!

Li Xiuran suddenly turned around, looked at the prison guard next to him, and said, "Who has been to the prison the day the last time the prison was broken into?"

The prison is not only strict in the custody, but also has many rules. Those who come in will leave records. If this person wants to bring the demon cultivator into the prison, he will definitely leave records!

The guard thought about it and smiled bitterly: "It happened several days ago. I couldn't remember it for a while. I had to look at the records before I knew it."

After saying that, he walked out of the prison.

Li Xiuran followed closely behind.

Yang Wenxin, Chi Qingwan and others looked confused, but seeing Li Xiuran cares so much, he also knew that this matter must be very important, so he quickly followed.

When he arrived at the gate of the prison, the guard found the registration book, turned to the day of the accident, and said, "The people who came to the prison that day were Kuang Li, Gan Jiansong, Lu Hu, Shi Lei, and... Yan Cheng."

"Yan Cheng?!"

Li Xiuran's eyes tightened in an instant, it was him!
