Misunderstanding

Chapter 36

Everyone who participated in the exam was dumbfounded. They don't think that there was someone who murdered someone in the Extreme Martial Sect?

If the person who murdered gets caught then they will definitely receive a very harsh punishment!

"Everyone should not move a single inch until we find the missing person. If he is alive then good, if he is dead then the murderer will face the sect's wrath for breaking the rule" the old man said. He still doesn't believe that someone was actually murdered in the sect.

Jiang Chong looked around at the people with furious eyes.

"Now let's search for him," Jiang Chong said.

"I already informed the sect, they will send people to assist. No need to worry, we will find him" the old man said.

Jiang Chong nodded and he understood that they can't cover the whole sect ground even after searching for hours.

Du Chan who was standing in the middle of the group smiled. He felt it was funny. Even if they find Bai Ning Han's corpse they will not be able to find how he died. Because Bai Ning Han didn't have a single scratch on his body at all!

'Let's see what they're gonna do, hehe' Du Chan thought.

After some time a group of 10 people came in front of the crowd. They have an outstanding aura around them. The old man nodded at them.

"Okay, since the outer sect disciples came, let's search, if anyone finds him or his corpse shout as hard as you can, " the old man said and disappeared.

The outer sect disciples also looked at the group who passed and started to run in every direction.

Jiang Twins also started to search. Other guys didn't move, they just sat on the ground where they were standing before.

"Hahh, if the person who was missing died, then it would be troublesome"

"Yeah… we obtained these badges with quite a difficulty, and well I don't even know anything, so I'm safe I guess"

"Yeah, we also don't know anything about that person nor seen him before"

The bulky guy in the Xie Mengyu group sat down on the ground and said.

"You guys don't need to worry, the person might be unconscious and don't hear the announcement, and there is no one here dare to kill a person and that's in sect ground"

"Yeah, yeah big brother is correct!"

"That might be true…"

Everyone who heard the bulky guy agreed, even though they are geniuses they have never killed people before!

The crowd became noisy.

Du Chan also sat down and looked at Xie Mengyu. She was also sitting alone, separate from the group. Her eyes were closed and she was calm without bothering with her surroundings at all.

Du Chan wants to go and talk to her, but it would bring a disaster for him. So he thought of talking to her after entering the sect. So he looked away.

Xie Mengyu suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the Du Chan who was calm and looking around at the people.

"Why do I feel some familiar feeling from him…" she asked herself. She had never met or even seen him before but she felt she already knew him… she was confused by this but then again closed her and stopped thinking about it. She had no time to spare on this, she needed to become strong and kill the ba$tard who took advantage of her, she clenched her fists when she recalled the scene of her being powerless, she swore that if she meets that guy again then he can't escape from her.

"FOUND HIM"

A big shout echoed in the ground. Everyone heard the voice.

"Ohh they already found him"

"Yeah, I thought it might take some time but the sect disciples are fast"

"HE IS DEAD"

Another shout came by...everyone was silent. Someone really murdered!

The old man and the disciples came back to the sect entrance with Bai Ning Han's corpse.

"Brother….Han…" a weak and soft voice passed everyone's ears. It was like a girl's voice...but the person who said that was Jiang Teng. His voice was strange, they couldn't tell it was a man's voice at all if they didn't see that Jiang Teng was the one who said it!

It was the first time Jiang Teng had spoken after leaving the kingdom. Jiang Chong also was sad. Even though he and Bai Ning Han only know for some time, he understands that Bai Ning Han was a good person. But he was actually got killed! His eyes became red with anger.

The old man looked at the Bai Ning Han corpse and asked the disciple who found it.

"Where did you find him?"

"Inside the cave, this was buried by the beast's corpse" he answered.

"Hmm" the old man looked at the participants.

"Who was the first person entered the cave which was filled with beasts?" He asked the participants but no one answered.

"Who was the first person entered the cave which was filled with beasts?" He asked again with some high volume. But nobody answered.

"Okay, no one is going to pass the exam!" The old man said with a serious tone.

A guy stood up and pointed his finger at a guy and shouted.

"Elder, I saw him entering that cave filled with beats"

The old man looked at the person who was pointed out.

The pointed out person stood up.

"It's true I entered the cave. But I never saw that corpse and also I'm not the first person to enter that cave, I saw him entering before me!" He pointed out another guy.

"What!? I didn't even enter that cave, how did you see me?" He asked.

"It was definitely you and him" another guy stood up and said to that guy and another guy.

The blaming on others started! Everyone pointed out different persons. It was very difficult to find the murderer.

"If the person tells the truth then the sect will reward them with a Blood Boiling pill!-- you all should know the value of it and if the person from this said the truth, then the sect will allow you to get the permission to enter the 2nd test," the old man said to the failed people.

The crowd was silent… Everyone knows the Blood Boiling pill value! It was one of the best pills for the Blood Condensation Realm people to jump stages and get into the higher level of the Blood Condensation realm! And if any late-stage of Qi Condensation takes that pill then they have 40℅ chances to breakthrough in the Blood Condensation realm. It's a priceless treasure!.

After some time a guy lifted his hand high. The old man and everyone noticed.

"I- it was m..me who entered the cave first," he said with a frightened voice.

"Ohh, what did you see after entering the cave?" the old man asked.

"I- it was filled with beasts corpses and it appeared suddenly like it was hidden for some time...and I didn't see that corpse before," that guy said.

The old man looked at him and called him.

"Come here," the old man said. And that guy slowly walked near the old man.

"Do you know? I hate people when they lie!" The old man said calmly. And that guy's legs became soft, he was already scared and now after hearing the old man his courage was shattered.

"I- im sorry," he said with a strange expression. His face was like he was about to cry.

"Now tell me, what happened?" the old man asked.

"When I first entered the cave, this corpse was lying in the middle of the cave but I only took 3 badges and moved away from there without touching him," he said seriously.

The old man gazed at that guy, even though he got 3 badges he lost them-- trash.

"Okay, got it you can leave," the old man said. That guy nodded and returned to his place.

The old man told something to the outer sect disciples and disappeared.

"Quite old man said he will bring the physician here" one of the outer sect disciples said.

Du Chan was bored by this drama. It was nearly impossible to find it's him who killed Bai Ning Han. Logically he didn't kill him, he died by entering his body. Even Du Chan was confused because of it. He didn't remember how Bai Ning Han died but he got his memories and his control over his body back.

"Well, anyway. I don't care about it" he thought, he doesn't know how, but he doesn't need to know so he stopped thinking about it.

Some time passed.

The old man returned with a man. That man looked middle aged, he was wearing green and black robes. He was one of the physician of the sect.

"This is the guy, how did he die? And also who killed him" the old man said to the physician.

The physician nodded and came near the Bai Ning Han corpse and checked it in front of everyone.

"Hmm, it looks like no one killed him. It just his soul left his body" the physician said calmly.

When others heard the physician they didn't understand anything but when the old man heard him he came to realise how Bai Ning Han died.

"Okay, I understand," the old man said.

The physician nodded.

The Jiang Twins were shocked, they didn't understand what happened.

"Old man...what happened, how did he died?" Jiang Chong asked.

"Nothing, this guy's soul must have entered samsara! That's the only possibility. No one can take away the soul from their body until heaven is involved in that, so you may not understand now but you will later after reaching higher realms" the old man said mysteriously.

Everyone didn't understand a single thing the old man said. Higher realm? Samsara? Heaven? Those are very complicated things that mortals don't need to know and understand them! Those are different levels from their understanding.

"Okay…" Jiang Chong said disappointingly, learning about higher realm matters brings problems so leaving it like that is best.

"Okay, we will take care of it. You guys go and rest for tomorrow's exam,"the old man said.

Du Chan who was sitting smiled but laughed hard inside.

'Hahaha, that's clearly a misunderstanding, haha'
