"Fellow Daoist Fang, what happened?"

Wang Lun put down his bowls and chopsticks and went to the yard outside. He found Fang Yunrou squatting on the ground, lowering her head, buried her head in her arms, crying non-stop.

Hearing Wang Lun’s question, Fang Yunrou said sadly with a crying voice: “Yin Jie…”

After saying only a few words, she couldn't continue.

Wang Lun guessed that Yin Jie had an unexpected accident. Now he saw Fang Yunrou was heartbroken, but he definitely couldn't comfort him.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, don't be overwhelmed. Come and find me if you have anything."

It is impossible for the other party to be so sad that it is impossible not to let the other party cry. Comfort is useless, and it is better to let the other party cry to the end.

Wang Lun went in and finished his meal and helped him clean up. Without disturbing Fang Yunrou, he entered the cultivation area and began to temper his magic power.

The next day, just as the sky was getting dark, Wang Lun came to the living area and found Fang Yunrou sitting on the stone table in the yard, like a sculpture, motionless.

There are dewdrops on the other party’s clothes and hair.

Obviously, Fang Yunrou sat outside all night.

That Yin Jie must have disappeared, otherwise Fang Yunrou would not have been so stimulated.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, no one can be resurrected after death." Wang Lun shouted behind her.

Fang Yunrou finally reacted. Perhaps she remembered her duties. She was just a servant serving the Yuanying Zhenren in the time and space city. How could she let the Zhenren wait for dinner? She actually forgot to cook!

"Real person, the little woman deserves to die. She didn't prepare food for the real person." Fang Yunrou was panicked.

"Don't think about this, it's all a trivial matter. The important thing is yourself. You have to recover." Wang Lun comforted him.

"I... I really can't accept it." Fang Yunrou shook her head, the pear blossoms were raining, "Yin Jie is so well, but suddenly she disappeared!"

Wang Lun can understand. People are not plants and trees. Fang Yunrou obviously loves Yin Jie deeply. If someone has an accident or dies, he will definitely not be able to accept it in a short period of time.

"The living must look forward." Wang Lun comforted again, and then walked outside.

Today, Fang Yunrou doesn't need to prepare the meal. I just hope that when she comes back in the evening, Fang Yunrou can recover from her calmness and accept the fact that Yin Jie is dead.

When Wang Lun arrived at the inner domain, he still looked at the space-time channel floating above. In fact, he could only see the space-time node, that is, the entrance of the channel. The entire channel was hidden in the turbulence of time and space, and could not be seen by the naked eye.

Because it is strictly prohibited to use spiritual sense to explore the entrance of the channel, Wang Lun can only look at it every day when he comes here, but he also found a rule. That is, the entrance is always open. In other words, there are always powerful god-transforming people in the channel. Therefore, in the future, there is no need to consider the issue of the passage being closed. If you have enough skills, you can go in quickly from the entrance and drive straight in.

When he returned to his residence in the evening, as soon as Wang Lun entered the yard, Fang Yunrou came out from inside.

"Real person, the meal is ready."

Wang Lun looked at the other party. Fang Yunrou had no tears on her face, but her eyes were red and swollen, and she was pretending to be happy at this moment.

"Don't be intentional. You can do it these days if you don't want to cook," Wang Lun walked inside, "Sit down and have something together."

At the dinner table, Wang Lun heard the other party telling him something wrong with Yin Jie.

Yin Jie left the sect alone and went out to explore, but he also reported the place he planned to go to. The day before yesterday, a strange monk contacted the stronghold in a city located 20,000 miles away in the sect where Yin Jie was located, and gave Yin Jie's identity token to the people in the stronghold.

The man was not the murderer. The man and his team were exploring in the nearby mountains and forests, looking for spiritual medicine, and found Yin Jie's body. Judging from the corpse, Yin Jie had been dead for at least ten days and was attacked by monks. The fatal injury was that his abdomen was hit by magic power and he died of serious injuries.

The man protected Yin Jie's body to prevent it from being eaten by wild animals. In addition to the token that could prove Yin Jie's identity, there was also a little powder remaining in Yin Jie's left hand.

And it was that little powder that led to Yin Jie being killed.

The ingredients of the powder come from a very rare refining material, Sumeru stone!

Sumeru stone has natural spatial attributes. Items refined with this material will automatically have spatial characteristics, not only the ability to store space, but also the strange effect of storing energy, living things, and the arrangement of special magic arrays.

Such refining materials are very precious because they are naturally generated and can only be obtained through underground digging. Cultivators cannot synthesize this material.

The man and the head of the stronghold agreed that something happened to kill and robbery, and Yin Jie was killed by the enemy because of a Sumeru stone.

Wang Lun also heard some details from Fang Yunrou's mouth.

Because Yin Jie has been in contact with the sect, although he did not report to the sect immediately after receiving the Sumeru Stone and had selfish intentions, he had urgently contacted the sect before the accident, saying that he suspected that he was targeted by the people from Qizhen Pavilion.

Because Yin Jie himself said that in that hidden mountain forest, there were many small groups looking for spiritual medicine at that time, Yin Jie met with the monks from Qizhen Pavilion.

The person who found Yin Jie's body also confirmed something. The group of monks in the mountains and forests at that time indeed included monks from Qizhen Pavilion.

"But now there is no evidence at all in the sect. I can only report this to Ling Sect, but Ling Sect may not be able to catch the murderer and avenge Brother Yin."

Fang Yunrou said this,

There is a tendency to cry, and I feel that Yin Jie will die with tragic death.

"I discovered something the day before yesterday, so wait. Perhaps Lingzong will take strict measures against Qizhen Pavilion in order to recover the Sumeru Stone." Wang Lun said, not just comforting the other party.

But Fang Yunrou didn't understand the value of the Sumeru Stone and blurted out: "Will Lingzong really do this?"

"They will do this, but their purpose is to get the Sumeru Stone. If they get it, they will preside over justice for Yin Jie. If they don't get it, they will not help your sect."

Wang Lun's meaning is very clear. When Ling Sect gets benefits, it will take them down privately. It will not give Yin Jie's sect some soup, but only makes a fuss in form, that is, to thank Yin Jie for discovering the Sumeru Stone and help Yin Jie get revenge.

But if Ling Sect doesn't get any benefits, I'm sorry. In the eyes of Ling Sect, Yin Jie's death is just a matter of sesame and green beans. It's impossible to care about it. Yin Jie's death is death, and he will die in vain.

Fang Yunrou's expression was gloomy: "My sect must not be able to avenge Yin Jie. Alas, I hope Ling Sect can do this."

After saying that, she sighed and her expression became dim. "The old saying goes, a man is guilty of being guilty of being a treasure. Brother Yin should not have discovered the Sumeru stone. If he did not get such a treasure, he would not have caused any death."

Wang Lun did not respond. Yin Jie got the Sumeru Stone and did not report it to the sect in time. It was obvious that he wanted to keep Yin Jie himself for use. Of course, this was normal and there was no problem. It was completely reasonable not to hand over the treasures he had obtained to the sect. But Wang Lun was sure that Yin Jie was resurrected from the dead and let Yin Jie get a Sumeru Stone, Yin Jie was very likely to keep it himself, and then he thought about how to avoid the murderous robbery of the monks of Qizhen Pavilion, instead of not letting him do it directly after discovering the Sumeru Stone.

After all, the Sumeru Stone is so...so precious!

The reason why the black box that Wang Lun had always had a headache about has not been able to open until now is because the black box was refined from Sumeru stone, with special space attributes, and automatically generated a natural space ban.

If the box is only refined with a small amount of Sumeru stone, it would be fine. In that case, the space restriction automatically generated by the box is not completely natural. It also needs to be supplemented and improved by monks to have the effect of banning. Therefore, such a box can be completely broken with magic power, not to mention using space turbulence to wash the space.

But the black box is of very high grade and has been refined with a lot of Sumeru stones!

Moreover, even if you find the right method and open the box in the future, the box will be formed and the Sumeru stone inside will not be separated, and there is no way to use it again.

The Sumeru Stone is such a characteristic. It not only has the special spatial attributes that make the monks greedy, but also has the "disadvantages" that cannot be used again. Therefore, the Sumeru Stone is a little less when used. It can be discovered from time to time in the early stage. Now, it can be said that it has disappeared.

Special refining materials with similar characteristics naturally include the "nemesis" of the Sumeru Stone. The Breaking Divine Stone cannot be used again. For example, the Flying Bat Sword King once gave the flying sword containing the Breaking Divine Stone to the five disciples under his seat, which means there are only flying swords and no Breaking Divine Stones, so the number of Breaking Divine Stones in the spiritual world will not count the five flying swords into it.

If you want to say that Yin Jie’s luck is both true and really good.

If you really bear it, you will naturally be killed by a monk. Not only will the murderer die, but the murderer is also from Qizhen Pavilion, and Yin Jie's sect is unable to seek justice directly for Yin Jie.

If you have really good luck, you can find the extremely rare Sumeru stone.

Last time, Wang Lun heard from the Forbidden Sword General that although the rareness of the Sumeru Stone is not as rare as the Knight-Breaking Stone, it is estimated that the Sumeru Stone in the Spirit Sect will not exceed the number of two hands, so it is extremely precious, and its value is not comparable to that of an ordinary holy weapon.

No wonder Yin Jie's sect asked for help from Ling Sect. It was because after knowing that Ling Sect learned about this, they would definitely not stand by and confront Qizhen Pavilion in order to get the Sumeru Stone back from Qizhen Pavilion.

"Qizhen Pavilion is really lucky. With the Knight Breaking Stone and the Sumeru Stone, no matter how powerful the Lingzong is, it should be impossible for Qizhen Pavilion to hand over the Sumeru Stone."

It will be difficult to spit out what you eat. Qizhen Pavilion is like a Pixiu, which only enters and does not leave. Even when facing Lingzong, there are excuses to not cooperate.

Wang Lun thought so much, and when he looked back at Fang Yunrou, he found that the latter was still crying. He must have thought that Yin Jie's revenge could not be avenged.

"Actually..." Wang Lun said these two words, but Fang Yunrou suddenly interrupted Wang Lun for the first time like a drowning person catching a life-saving straw.

"Real person, do you have a way to avenge Brother Yin, right?"

Wang Lun thought that Yin Jie had really let this good woman go, and he doubted the other party for no reason and did not listen to the other party's explanation. There is really a possibility, that is, if Yin Jie did not misunderstand Fang Yunrou, he might not have gone out to practice, or he would not have tried so urgently, and something might not have happened.

"I have no choice, but if the sect you are in can find out which cultivator in Qizhen Pavilion killed Yin Jie, you can ask Ling Sect. If Ling Sect cherishes his face, it will probably attack the cultivator." Wang Lun suggested.

But Wang Lun just wanted to relieve Fang Yunrou and let the other party have some hope.

Since the murderer is going to kill someone and rob, at least he will not let the bystanders see through his identity. The only person who has the chance to see through the identity of the murderer is Yin Jie himself, but Yin Jie has been killed and the dead cannot speak.

Therefore, the sect where Fang Yunrou is located cannot provide the list of murderers to the Ling Sect.

It’s not that Ling Sect will not do its best. As long as Fang Yunrou’s sect

Being able to specifically name the murderer and report to Ling Sect is equivalent to a disguised pressure. In order to show its breadth and fairness, Ling Sect will probably deal with the murderer.

"Yes, why didn't I expect it?" Fang Yunrou's listless spirit was stimulated and she was emotional, but she immediately thought of the difficulties. "The sect leader told me that he had been to the place where Brother Yin was killed, and had checked in detail, but found no clues. The person who informed the sect stronghold also said that he had not seen the murderer and was not a witness, so..."

"Yes, this is indeed difficult, but maybe your sect can find out anything, it's all possible." Wang Lun comforted again.

But unexpectedly, Fang Yunrou seemed to have not heard him, and her thinking was obviously on another channel.

A few seconds later, Fang Yunrou suddenly spoke: "Maybe the sect really missed the details, Brother Yin may have left a clue!"

"Why do you say that?" Wang Lun was a little curious.

Fang Yunrou suddenly knelt down at Wang Lun: "Real person, please come forward and make peace with Deacon Guo. I want Deacon Guo to make an exception and ask me to get the jade slip back to contact my sect again this month."

The jade slip she used to contact the sect was taken away as soon as she entered the Time and Space City. The monk named Guo was responsible for keeping the jade slip. Only on a fixed day per month can she get the jade slip from the other party and then hand it over.

Being asked like this is to prevent her from contacting the outside world casually and force her to do what her superiors are asking for in the Time and Space City.

"Do you want to notify your sect and ask them to find clues that might have been missed before?" Wang Lun asked, feeling that it was not that he could not support the other party.

"Yes, real person," Fang Yunrou felt that she wanted to Wang Lun and had to tell the reason, and then said, "Brother Yin likes to infer all kinds of inferences on weekdays, and often gives riddles to make me guess. I was thinking, if Brother Yin recognized or saw clearly the murderer before he was killed, he would leave something to provide clues and hints."

Wang Lun felt that this was a bit unreliable: "It's hard to say. Judging from your previous description, Yin Jie was killed by the murderer without a decent counterattack. Yin Jie is a late-stage cultivator in the Foundation Establishment, and the murderer is at least a mid-stage cultivator in the Jiedan Realm. Since the murderer found out in advance that Yin Jie had obtained the Sumeru Stone and had a huge strength advantage, he could successfully kill people without giving Yin Jie any chance. Yin Jie's chance of seeing the murderer's face is very small."

"I have to try it, real person, I beg you." After being held back by Wang Lun's magic, Fang Yunrou could not kneel down, but she was still kneeling down with force.

"I can help you with this, but I just want to prepare you for your mentality. The tragic incident has happened and you have to look forward." Wang Lun reminded with kindness.

As for negotiating with Deacon Guo, Wang Lun quickly completed it and took back Fang Yunrou's jade slip.
