Biography

A silenced witness

Wu shi arrests Chen as the key link between the Master Teacher Pavilion and the ambush at Qiu Wu Palace. Before Zhang Xuan can question him, Chen dies inside the Pavilion's secure prison with his soul dissipated. Investigation of his extravagant residence uncovers a powerful concealed formation beyond what he could plausibly build alone, strengthening the betrayal case while showing that a larger faction supported him. His death becomes one of several matched killings used to erase witnesses. (Chapters 1,155–1,162, 1,187–1,188, and 1,203)
