Investigation Courtyard

Meng tribe’s Immortal Gu House Investigation Courtyard slowly stops in the air when the clues end at Sleeping Lady’s Divine Needle Valley, a lush valley unlike the surrounding grassland. The house had not concealed its traces, so the two Meng tribe Gu Immortals’ arrival already startled Sleeping Lady. She has some knowledge of Investigation Courtyard’s power, and because the clues disappeared in Divine Needle Valley she judges the culprit may still be hiding there. ^{ch. 1567}

Meng tribe’s two Gu Immortals search for clues with Investigation Courtyard. The commotion is huge, while Sleeping Lady’s sound path killer move keeps the divine hedgehog asleep. After a long search they find a new clue. The trail goes deeper underground, then winds up to the surface in Murong tribe territory hundreds of li from Divine Needle Valley, where the clues disappear. ^{ch. 1567}

Sleeping Lady says she found nothing herself and relied on Investigation Courtyard, then asks whether the obvious clues that appeared afterward were truly left by the culprit and whether Investigation Courtyard has an ability to tamper with clues. ^{ch. 1568}

Inside Investigation Courtyard, Meng Zi Zai proposes sentencing Sleeping Lady as the culprit after the matter is exposed. Meng tribe’s second supreme elder refuses: Investigation Courtyard is not able to deal with Sleeping Lady and the divine hedgehog in a short period of time, and the place is also close to Murong tribe. ^{ch. 1568}
