Chapter 2185: Chapter 2189: Investigation

”Injured? How can this be possible? The Domain Lord has never left the Domain Lord’s Mansion, and just this morning he summoned eldest brother!”

Tong He frowned, questioning aloud.

”Indeed! The Domain Lord summoned eldest brother this morning, and then eldest brother just disappeared!”

Tong Hai nodded, explaining in a low voice, ”As you know, back then the four of us brothers obtained a God Concealing Spirit Herb. The three of you let me consume it, making my Primordial Spirit Power more solid than you all. When meeting the Domain Lord, I sensed that the injury he suffered was a Primordial Spirit injury!”

”Primordial Spirit injury?!”

Tong He and Tong Hu looked at Tong Hai in surprise.

”The Domain Lord never left, that we know. But...”

Just as he said this, Tong Hai’s expression changed, he glanced at the door, and said in a serious tone, ”The Domain Lord has left!”

”This...”

Tong He and Tong Hu paused, their brows furrowing tightly.

”Where did he go? Could he have gone to Changlin Academy?”

Tong Hu’s eyes showed a hint of suspicion.

”Looking at the direction, it doesn’t seem to be Changlin Academy, it should be the area where that mysterious magical beast resides!”

Tong Hai shook his head, withdrawing his gaze.

”That mysterious magical beast? What is he doing there?”

Tong He asked puzzled, ”Although that mysterious magical beast is only a mid-level Emperor Grade beast, it’s a rare spatial attribute beast. I’m afraid the Domain Lord can’t subdue it alone?”

”Should we go and help?”

Tong Hu suggested.

”No need!”

Tong Hai shook his head, ”Since he didn’t call for us, we don’t need to interfere!”

”Fourth brother, why do I feel like you have a certain hostility towards the Domain Lord?”

Tong He frowned, staring intently at Tong Hai.

”Second brother, third brother!”

Tong Hai looked solemnly at the two, ”Although we are vassals of the Domain Lord’s Mansion, we know very well what kind of person Zhang Yubo is. Do you think he would help us without expecting anything in return?”

”This... that’s impossible! Zhang Yubo may appear bright and upright on the surface, but he is absolutely not a magnanimous person. He would not help us for free!”

Tong He pondered for a moment, shaking his head lightly.

”If that’s the case, why did he spend so much effort and resources to help eldest brother break through to the Integration Realm Peak?”

Tong Hai said solemnly.

”Fourth brother, do you mean...”

Tong He and Tong Hu’s hearts trembled, their eyes showing surprise.

”When the Domain Lord began helping eldest brother enhance his strength, it was exactly when Tang Lin returned to the Domain Lord’s Mansion. And this morning, when eldest brother was summoned by the Domain Lord, he disappeared. Don’t you sense something?”

Tong Hai’s expression grew grave, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes.

”Do you mean... eldest brother went to help attack Changlin Academy?! How could that be? Why would the Domain Lord attack Changlin Academy?”

Tong He frowned deeply, his face full of confusion.

”I’m not entirely sure, but Zhang Yubo couldn’t have helped eldest brother strengthen his power for no reason. Also, he stayed in the Domain Lord’s Mansion all along, so why was his Primordial Spirit injured? There are not many ways that can cause a Primordial Spirit injury remotely!”

Tong Hai guided patiently.

”You mean... the Domain Lord gave his Lifebound Magic Weapon to eldest brother to... but why would he do that?”

Tong He was full of disbelief, his eyebrows tightly knit as he stared straight at Tong Hai.

Tong Hai lightly shook his head, ”I don’t know why either. But... if eldest brother really agreed to him, it can only be because of the news Tang Lin brought, that Hu Yiqiu and his disciple Jiang Chen once entered Benefactor’s grand tomb, resulting in the tomb’s destruction. When the Great Dao news came out at that time, eldest brother declared he would kill that pair of master and disciple, but was dissuaded by the Domain Lord!”

After a pause, Tong Hai said solemnly, ”No matter the reason, we must wait first, wait for eldest brother’s news, if...”

”If there is no news from eldest brother, we’ll storm into Changlin Academy and avenge eldest brother!”

Tong Hu shouted angrily.

”Third brother, even if eldest brother really dies in Changlin Academy, how can we avenge him? It’s eldest brother who went to attack them!”

Tong Hai spoke gloomily.

”This...”

Tong Hu’s expression changed, saying irritably, ”Then what do we do? If there’s really no news from eldest brother, then this revenge...”

”This revenge should be pinned on Zhang Yubo!”

Tong He said coldly.

”Yes, this revenge should be against Zhang Yubo. Moreover, we need to find out if the destruction of Benefactor’s tomb is related to Hu Yiqiu and his disciple. If it truly is related, even if it means being pursued by the Changling Main Court, we must kill that pair of master and disciple!”

Tong Hai said in a solemn voice.

”Then we should make another trip to Changlin Academy!”

Tong He said seriously.

The three of them tacitly stopped mentioning Tong Jiang’s matter, as it was merely Tong Hai’s speculation, and they couldn’t truly verify it for the time being. All they could do was wait!

”No need, in three months it will be the Mingqian Banquet, and I heard Zhang Yubo invited Hu Yiqiu and that Jiang Chen this time. Once the banquet arrives, we can investigate their background more closely, besides, if there needs to be any action, it’s much easier to act within the Domain Lord’s Mansion than at Changlin Academy!”

Tong Hai gently shook his head.

”Alright, then we’ll wait for three months. If Benefactor’s tomb was indeed destroyed by that pair of master and disciple, we absolutely must not let them off!”

Tong He’s eyes revealed a chilly gleam.

...

In the eastern part of Mingyuan City, there lies a dense forest, which was once a paradise for beasts. However, one year ago, the beasts in the forest suddenly went berserk and burst out of the forest.

The experts of Mingyuan City were shocked and rushed to slaughter the rampaging beasts. Under Zhang Yubo’s leadership, the Domain Lord’s Mansion powerhouses entered the forest to check the situation. Within less than an hour after they entered, a fierce battle erupted in the forest.

Since then, Zhang Yubo ordered the forest to be deemed a forbidden zone, prohibiting anyone from entering, and deployed a squad of Void Refinement Realm experts to guard outside.

Swish!

A figure swiftly swept across the sky above the forest, rushing towards the center of the forest at great speed.

Roar!

A roar echoed within the forest, and a massive Great Dao pressure bore down fiercely on the figure diving into the forest.

”My lord, I bear no ill will, I just wish to inquire a few questions of you!”

The figure in the sky halted; it was none other than Zhang Yubo, the Domain Lord of Mingqian.

”Scram! Don’t disturb me while I’m sleeping!”

A childlike voice came from the center of the forest.

”My lord, I came merely to ask if anyone entered the forest today.”

Zhang Yubo did not get angry at the impolite voice, seemingly very familiar with the temper of his counterpart.

”Yes.”

The child’s voice sounded again.

Zhang Yubo’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked, ”Was it an elder wielding a dark giant hammer?”
