Xu Zhi Nan's body was still a bit weak, so they only talked for half an hour before dispersing for the time being. As to whether they should go to Mount Shu to question Li Bu Yu and considering Li Bu Yu's high and powerful position, they could not make up their minds yet.

When they returned to the guest house, all three of them were filled with questions, so they all looked pensive. It was hard to digest what they had learned all at once.

Zhong Kui scratched his hair in annoyance: "This is getting confusing. Zong Ming He ate human cores? Wasn't that the work of Zong Zi Xiao's mother in collusion with Wuyun Sect?"

Fan Wu She clasped the armrest with one hand and heard a slight creak as a crack was made in the sturdy pearwood.

Xie Bi An pondered, "There is also a theory that he was framed by Zong Zi Heng. Anyway, that's when the two brothers broke up, and it's an undisputed fact that Wuyun Sect colluded with the Lion Alliance to steal the human cores. Unexpectedly, this had something to do with Zong Ming He behind it."

Fan Wu She said in a low tone, "You guys only think about Zong Ming He taking the human core, did you forget that Zong Ming He's golden core was also dug out?"

"Oh yeah, and who dug out Zong Ming He's human core..."

It is already clear who's the suspect.

"Zong Zi Heng will do anything for the throne. Brotherly love, parental kindness, which of these does he put in his eyes? It is not surprising that he would eat his own father's human core." As Fan Wu She spoke, his gaze slowly moved towards Xie Bi An, a pair of pupils so dark that they seemed to be able to suck in everything in sight.

But Xie Bi An did not notice.

Zhong Kui shook his head, "I don't think Zong Zi Heng ate Zong Ming He's core."

"Why?"

"They are direct bloodlines and Zong Ming He is highly cultivated. If Zong Zi Heng had such a great tonic human core, with his natural talent, I'm afraid he wouldn't lose to Zong Zi Xiao in the duel at Wuji Palace."

"But Zong Zi Xiao has Yin soldiers." Xie Bi An said, "He doesn't even need to exert much effort. The Eighteen Horsemen of Yan Yun could trample down a city."

"In the Wuji Palace duel, Zong Zi Xiao didn't summon a single Yin soldier." Fan Wu She said coldly.

"Seriously? But the legend ..."

"In the Wuji Palace duel, the two men only used the Zongxuan sword technique." Zhong Kui said, "You should not listen to the blind white lies of those storytellers. It turns out that the two brothers were equally gifted, but Zong Zi Xiao broke through to the eighth Chongtian of the Zongxuan Sword because he ate his own father's human core."

Fan Wu She turned his face away, suppressing his anger.

Xie Bi An dawned on him, "So if Zong Ming He's core was really eaten by Zong Zi Heng, he ought to break through to the eighth Chongtian as well, and he might not have lost."

"Then Zong Ming He's core ..." Zhong Kui narrowed his eyes, "Could it ..."

Xie Bi An was startled and unconsciously lowered his voice, "Master, you don't think that it was Li Bu Yu who ate it, do you?"

Fan Wu She said, "Zong Ming He was suppressed in the Demon Binding Formation, he is the most suspicious. Then it's reasonable and fair to suspect him for digging out Zong Ming He's golden core."

Zhong Kui rested his cheek and thought hard for a while, "It doesn't seem like that either, Li Bu Yu's cultivation level doesn't seem to have made a great leap."
