Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 516: Chapter 333: Argument_1

Logan brought out the body of the Dominator from the small world and wrote a line of blood on the ground, indicating that he had done it all. To make it obvious that something was amiss, he left a dagger tightly gripped in the palm of the deceased’s hand.

The next day, when everyone woke up, a cry of alarm drew everyone over. As everyone entered the tent and saw what had happened, they gasped. A Strong Dominator had been silently slain in this manner?

One of them, trembling, said to the crowd, “I am from the Flying Flow Sect. This morning, I brought a few of my sect brothers to pay respects to our Dominator Elder. As soon as we stepped into the tent, we saw the Elder lying on the ground. There was also a line of blood on the ground.”

“I am Logan. I killed the man.” These eight bloody characters deflected all blame onto Logan. When everyone saw this, their brows furrowed, and a sense of fear crept over them. After all, everyone had been so tired that they had fallen asleep the night before. They considered themselves fortunate that the slain person was from the Flying Flow Sect. If the killer’s target had been themselves, they shuddered at the thought.

Someone clenched their fist in anger, “Logan is really detestable. Despite us hunting him, he dares to provoke us like this. This proves that Logan must be nearby. If we split up and search, we will surely find him.”

“Wait, do not make hasty conclusions. I do not believe that Logan is behind this. If he really killed the Dominator, why would he leave behind a line written in blood? Isn’t that bringing hate upon himself? Perhaps someone intentionally wanted to frame Logan.”

A powerful member from the Shingo Sect stepped forward, explaining to the crowd, “Think about it, Logan and the others are only at the Throne Realm. Even if Logan had great abilities he would not be able to kill a Dominator. The ones capable of killing a Dominator must be those above the level of a Dominator.”

“You’re right. Indeed, there wasn’t any disturbance last night. If attacked by an enemy, why didn’t the Dominator call everyone? Instead, he fought Logan alone and fell in the end. This makes no sense at all.”

Many people nodded in agreement. Just now, they were almost misled by the bloody words on the ground. On second thought, it really didn’t make any sense. Unless Logan’s strength was already unrivaled, he would definitely not leave evidence incriminating himself.

The most ridiculous part was that even if Logan had to leave a message, he would have definitely left a letter, not written a line of blood. It was likely that someone wanted to frame Logan but was too stupid. The line of blood was definitely left by the Dominator to identify the murderer, not for Logan to admit to this act.

“It definitely wasn’t done by an outsider. It must have been one of us here. Firstly, let’s rule out all those at Throne Realm. Even if their abilities are strong, they are not able to defeat a Dominator. As such, the remaining nine Dominators are all suspects.”

Steward Johnson coughed and began his analysis, “Let us think carefully. Who has the largest grudge against Flying Flow Sect? Who secretly killed a Dominator? Could it be the Sect Leader from one of the six sects?”

“The six Sect Leaders are not here. A regular Dominator would not have been able to kill someone silently. Unless multiple Dominators acted together. The Heavenly Sword Sect has the largest number of people here, including three Dominators. They definitely have the ability to do this. The other Sects have at most one or two Dominators.”

Someone immediately followed this line of thought, pointing the finger at the Heavenly Sword Sect, “Moreover, the Sect Leader of the Flying Flow Sect and the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect had a big argument yesterday. It must be the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect who held a grudge and killed the Flying Flow Sect’s Dominator secretively, in order to take revenge for their sect.”

“Yesterday, it was the members of the Heavenly Sword Sect who were on night watch. Such a big incident happened and no one reported it. Naturally, it was the Heavenly Sword Sect’s doing. Otherwise, how would those who were on watch not notice? I didn’t expect people of the Heavenly Sword Sect to be so devious and cruel.”

A member from Shingo Sect sneered, everyone moved away from those of the Heavenly Sword Sect. After all, no one wished to end up like the Dominator, silently killed by them. Now, no one dares to continue with the Heavenly Sword Sect as these conflicts are prevalent among the major sects. Having targeted the Flying Flow sect, they could be next.

The members of the Heavenly Sword Sect were mystified, and a face full of question marks, “You should not make groundless accusations, we know nothing about this, understood? Last night, all of our three Dominator Realms were resting. Besides, didn’t the bloody words already indicate that it was done by Logan?”

“Everyone, come take a closer look. The dead man is clutching a dagger. Why would he grip a dagger in his palm before he died? Moreover, I have observed that this dagger is very ordinary. There isn’t a trace of Spiritual Energy in it, so it’s not valuable.”

Someone suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone’s attention. Everyone thought that this dagger must be the key to solving the case. However, after watching it for a long time, they still could not find any clues from this dagger. They originally thought that this dagger would at least be a divine weapon, but it turned out that even the Transcendent Tier would not use such a dagger.

However, someone who pondered for a long time suddenly had an epiphany, “A dagger is essentially a kind of sword. The only one related to the sword is the Heavenly Sword Sect. Other sects do not have any connection with ‘sword’. Now, things are clear – this was all done by the Heavenly Sword Sect.”

The three Dominators from the Heavenly Sword Sect, who were already unsatisfied with being wrongly accused, felt even more aggrieved in response to this sudden conclusive statement. However, they had no choice. They understood that their explanations would be worthless. The group had already decided that they were the murderers.

All those from the Flying Flow Sect were even more outraged, pointing out, “Just wait, we will inform our Sect Leader about all that has happened here. You people from the Heavenly Sword Sect must pay for what you have done. Although the Flying Flow Sect is weak, we will not allow ourselves to be bullied.”

Seeing the people from the Flying Flow Sect about to send a message via a carrier pigeon, the three Dominators from the Heavenly Sword Sect hurriedly intervened. If this news reached the leaders of the six sects, the situation would surely escalate irreversibly. Their top priority was to find the real murderer. It was clear that Heavenly Sword Sect couldn’t continue to shoulder the blame.

However, the moment they made a move, a large number of people from the Flying Flow Sect were thrown out. After their only Dominator was killed, the remaining people from the Flying Flow Sect were essentially nobodies. In front of these three Dominators, they did not have a chance.

“What are you doing, Heavenly Sword Sect? Are you trying to silence us by killing us?” As soon as the people saw the three Dominators from the Heavenly Sword Sect making a move right in front of everyone, the people from the other sects came over. They would not allow anyone from the Flying Flow Sect to be exterminated in front of them, as they were not sure if they might be the next target.

Originally, there were ten Dominators in this group. Excluding the one who died and the three Dominators from the Heavenly Sword Sect, there were still six Dominators left. Although these six all belonged to different sects, they put enough pressure on the three from the Heavenly Sword Sect to contain their anger and prevent them from freaking out.

Left without a choice, a powerful member from the Heavenly Sword Sect explained, “This was a trap. We don’t know who is plotting against us in the shadows.”
