Yun Ruofeng turned and looked at the black blood on the sword before checking Wei Mohai's corpse again . There are no sword injuries on him . The black blood must belong to the murderer!
Black blood means that the murderer must have been poisoned . Wei Mohai had intentionally smeared lethal poison on his sword before carrying out my orders .
The one who killed him is… Su Xi-er? Yun Ruofeng was startled, his body freezing up . It is definitely Su Xi-er, or at the very least, someone related to her .
"Make sure you take care of the sword," Yun Ruofeng ordered again before he examined Wei Mohai's corpse in detail . There aren't any injuries on him . What caused his death?

As if by magic, the clouds dispersed, and the moon showed its face; it’s light illuminating the murder scene .
Under the moonlight, Yun Ruofeng saw the three silver needles on Wei Mohai's head . Each of them was stabbed into one of the three major death acupoints on humans . Stab one, unconsciousness . Stab two, paralysis . Stab three, death .
Yun Ruofeng's gaze fell on the three silver needles . To be able to hit the three points in an instant, the killer had to be very familiar with the acupuncture points on a human body, in addition to being extremely skilled at throwing needles . This person's skills . . .
A moment later, Yun Ruofeng's breath grew laboured as his eyes darkened . His heart was pounding in his chest . Using silver needles, that's extremely like someone! Ning Rulan! Her killing method was to aim at the acupoints; every move, a deadly one .

How could there be someone with the same killing method? It's… Yun Ruofeng subconsciously clenched and unclenched his fists, the look in his eyes changing .
Is it Ning Rulan's soul that has returned? There is no doubt that she hated me when I killed her and Lü Liu . She died with grievances, and has come to look for me for revenge . . .
Qin Ling felt his heart dropped when he saw this side of Yun Ruofeng . I am well aware of the brotherhood between Prince Yun and Commander Wei . Prince Yun is only like this because he can't accept Commander Wei's death .
"Prince Yun, my condolences . " Qin Ling cupped his fists together and spoke softly .

"Say, can a human's soul kill someone after they have died?" Yun Ruofeng suddenly came out with this question . A smile flickered across his face, but it was neither gentle nor cruel- it was filled with a dreary sense of desolation .
Qin Ling didn't understand the reason behind Prince Yun's question . Pondering momentarily, he replied, "This subordinate doesn't believe in the occult . People cannot kill from beyond the grave, just as people cannot return from the dead . "
"Return from the dead . " Yun Ruofeng muttered under his breath before eventually standing up . Malevolence flashed across his eyes before his calm demeanour returned . "Pass on this Prince's order: close every single medicinal store in Nanzhao's capital . Cordon off the mountains in the suburbs of Nanzhao's capital where herbs are gathered and guard the mountains tightly . These orders shall stay until the day Commander Wei's killer is arrested . "
Yun Ruofeng's words were stern . He then looked at Wei Mohai's corpse . "Take Commander Wei's corpse back to his hometown and bury it . Hold him an elaborate funeral, and have the woman from Commander Wei's childhood arranged marriage come guard his tomb for the rest of her life . "
Qin Ling was stunned . He was a trusted follower of Wei Mohai, and was aware of the arranged marriage . However, he also knew that the woman hadn’t liked Wei Mohai, and had already broken off the engagement to marry someone else .
Qin Ling thought that Prince Yun didn't know about this . "Prince Yun, the woman from Commander Wei's arranged marriage fell in love with the village teacher . She had broken off the engagement with Commander Wei, and was married last year . Now that she must have already given birth to a child, how can she guard Commander Wei’s tomb?"
Yun Ruofeng was expressionless . In a nonchalant tone, he commanded, "Kill that woman's husband and child . Have her guard his tomb forever . If she tries to end her life, then kill her maiden family in secret as well . "
Qin Ling held his breath . Commander Wei truly did like that woman, and definitely wouldn’t wish for such a thing to happen . However, it’s not possible for me to defy Prince Yun!
