Duanhai Waterfall is crowded with people, and the proximity of Wanxiang Sect adds a different meaning to the waterfall skyscape.

There are young men from aristocratic families who come here to play, there are also literati who come here to enjoy the scenery and write poems, and there are even poor families who bring their families to try their luck and visit the mountain gate.

The former two are mostly found in restaurants along the coast, while the latter are gathered on the embankments.

But this hustle and bustle is isolated by the waterfall chasm. Half of it is the bustling and lively crowd, and the other half is the majestic and deserted palace complex.

Because it is close to a waterfall and low-level disciples have low cultivation, in order to prevent moisture from entering the body, the building materials of the palace are either made of water-proof materials or engraved with water-proof patterns, so that they can feel dry and comfortable while walking.

On the long corridor leading to the main area of ​​the sect, the sound of two footsteps sounded just like a month ago.

"Lao Wu, those guys were still arguing during the sect meeting yesterday?"

The middle-aged man with a beard has a tired voice.

Lao Wu glanced at his old friend beside him:

"I was about to ask you, but you didn't go either?"

"."

Hearing this, the two of them suddenly fell silent. After a while, the bearded man sighed:

"We are arguing and quarreling there every day, blaming each other, and pushing each other. We can't make any progress for a long time. It's as if we haven't gone. What's going on over there that you're responsible for?"

When Lao Wu heard this question, he slowly looked sideways and glanced into the distance.

The scenery here is very good, and you can have a panoramic view of the entire waterfall.

After watching for a few breaths, Lao Wu slowly spoke:

"That idiot, the second elder, keeps asking me to send people over to investigate quickly. How can I investigate? How dare I investigate? Ji Wencheng and the three of them have not received news for so long because something has happened. Now that they are sent over, they will be caught in a trap. Isn't this because there is no money here?

Three hundred taels?"

The bearded man folded the joints of his fingers and made a "click" sound:

"Three great masters, they just disappeared without a trace. Is this Yuanchu?"

Lao Wu shook his head:

"The problem now is not about this. We have to find a way to solve the problem quickly. Half a month ago, the secret we planted in the surrounding counties and counties has sent back the news that there are troops mobilizing over there and rushing to Shengshan County. As a result, there has been no progress in the discussion so far.

None."

The bearded man nodded:

"That's true."

After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and asked in a low voice: "I remember that Xiao He and the fool surnamed Li seemed to be in Shengshan County when the incident happened. What happened to them?"

Lao Wu shook his head when he heard this:

"Xiao He is fine, but the blow was a bit severe. She should be under house arrest by the sect master now, but she should be able to figure it out. As for the idiot named Li, he should be dead by now."

"Dead?"

The bearded man frowned.

If Li Erzhu, a 20-year-old Fourth-Rank Integration Master, attains enlightenment within two years, the sect leader will most likely train him as his son-in-law.

Otherwise, Xiaohe would not be allowed to hang out with him all the time.

Lao Wu narrowed his eyes and whispered:

"On the way back to the clan, he told me that he was going back to Shengshan County to kill demons."

The bearded man raised his eyebrows and said strangely:

"Slaying monsters in a tide of beasts?"

After a pause,

Lao Wu's eyes showed a hint of complexity, and he remembered what Li Erzhu said when he knelt in front of him:

"Fifth Elder, the sect will never be able to repay the kindness it has shown me in this life, but can you let me go back there to kill the demon? Or the elder can just kill me with one sword.

"My conscience is really uneasy."

Narrowing his eyes with unclear meaning, Lao Wu whispered:

"You also watched him grow up and know his temperament."

"."

The bearded man was stunned for a moment, thinking of the boy's temperament, he hummed:

"He asked you to kill him?"

"Hmm."

"Unfathomable stupidity."

"So I asked him to kill demons." Lao Wu smiled.

The bearded man frowned when he heard this:

"Aren't you afraid that he will reveal the matter?"

Lao Wu smiled coldly:

"The sect is so kind to him, and his temperament will never be forgotten.

"The sect leader died fighting for Shengshan County, which can remove some of our suspicions. It is much more valuable than me killing him with one sword."

The bearded man rubbed his eyebrows:

"It's a pity. If such a person is used well, he can be a good tool."

Lao Wu glanced at the beard, lowered his eyes, and said meaningfully:

"Maybe, maybe it doesn't matter anymore"

"." The bearded man looked confused.

Without saying another word, the two of them walked to the end of the corridor, and the door of the meeting hall came into view.

Push the door and enter,

Different from the thick atmosphere last time, the whole hall was a little noisy at this moment.

The various voices of more than a dozen people were mixed together. Compared with an important high-level meeting, this place was more like a small vegetable market.

One of the old men pointed at the nose of a young man in brocade robes opposite him and cursed:

"He Jigu! Just think about your Fenghai Chamber of Commerce! For such a big plan of the entire sect, does Shengshan County have a total of 50,000 taels? It has to be withdrawn in advance. After investigation, there was no target. Okay,

If you do this, won’t you have a target?!”

The young man in brocade robe held a folding fan and slammed it on the table:

"Drunken lunatic, don't scream here. Aren't you the one who is most responsible for this failure?! You are responsible for the connection and acceptance of the formation. If there was no problem with the formation, how could we have failed?!"

"Asshole!! There is absolutely no way there will be a problem with the formation!"

"Then tell me how this thing was broken? The Magic Mist Formation is the work of Xu Xinyao, the formation master. But when it comes to this, the formation research you are responsible for, Mr. Jiu, is really disappointing. Every year, the sect invests

It’s so big, not to mention the Phantom Mist Array, in the end even the Ghost Photographing Array has to be purchased by others!! Do you know how much money that costs?!”

"The core of the ghost-catching formation is researched by me personally. Some of the edge lines I bought will turn into the whole thing when you put it in your mouth, a yellow-mouthed boy."

"."

"."

Listening to the quarrels in the hall, Lao Wu and Xiushi looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

When he saw the two people coming in, Wanxiang Sect Master, who was sitting on the main seat with his eyes closed and concentrating, suddenly opened his eyes and said loudly:

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"The fifth and youngest are here, please stop for a moment."

"."

The voice was vigorous and powerful, directly echoing into the minds of everyone in the hall.

Seeing this scene, all the senior officials who were arguing stopped, but they still glared at each other.

You don’t have to obey the orders of the sect leader, but you still have to give face.

Master Wanxiang took out a breath and asked in a gentle voice:

"What progress are you two making over there?"

The two people are responsible for matters related to information and intelligence. They can almost be said to be the most important two people in the Wanxiang Sect at this stage.

The mobilization of local county troops, the movements of troops in other state capitals, and even the contents of memorials submitted to the court all depended on the two of them.

The current high-level quarrels largely stem from the fear of insufficient information.

They don't know what the current situation of the three people in charge of the formation is, they don't know if the people in Shengshan County are dead, they don't know how much their plans have been exposed, and they don't even know what the court's current attitude is.

Now, they only know that the imperial court will dispatch troops to Shengshan County.
