Chapter 1025 The arrogance of the disciples of the Hall of Five Elements
When they appeared again, they were above a rippling blue lake. The bright moon was reflected in the water, which was particularly beautiful.
The two of them scanned the lake with their consciousness, and found a cave wrapped in a formation in the middle of the island in the middle of the lake.
The two of them went straight to the cave.
After arriving at the island in the middle of the lake, the two got off the airship. Then, Qi Heng said in a loud voice,
"The Five Elements Hall is doing something, and I would like to invite fellow Taoists inside to come out and talk."
After a while, a voice came from inside,
"I'm practicing in seclusion, and I haven't committed any crimes. Fellow Taoists from the Five Elements Hall, please come back."
Wan Lei didn't think anything of it when he heard this. After all, anyone would be wary if a stranger came to their door and asked to open the door while they were practicing.
But Qi Heng doesn't think so. I am a disciple of the Five Elements Palace. If I come to do business, everyone must cooperate unconditionally. How dare you turn us away?
court death!
Qi Heng sneered and said loudly,
"It seems that the fellow Taoists inside are not cooperating. I will give you two choices now. First, either come out on your own and cooperate with our investigation. Second, I will forcefully break open your formation and door, and seize you."
If you take me back to the Five Elements Palace, the charge is that you refuse to cooperate in the execution of official duties, you will be imprisoned for at least a few years. You can choose for yourself."
Wan Lei was startled when he heard this. Damn it, are we, the Five Elements Palace, so domineering?
It’s so hard to get used to it.
But then I thought about it, before I joined the Five Elements Palace, the disciples of the Five Elements Palace that I met seemed to be like this.
He is domineering, superior to others, and he is overbearing to everyone, as if I am the best in the world and you have violated the law if you disobey.
Sure enough, after a while, the door of the cave opened with a creak, and a middle-aged monk with a dark face came out.
A small instrument appeared in Qi Heng's hand, and when he looked at the other party's face, the other party's information appeared directly on the screen of the instrument.
What a great face recognition.
"It's Xu Yan, that's right."
Hearing this, Xu Yan asked with a cold face,
"You two, I don't know what I have done. Could you please trouble your disciples from the Five Elements Palace to come here in person?"
The clothing styles of the disciples of the Five Elements Hall are unknown to everyone in the entire immortal world.
"Don't you know what I want to do with you?"
Qi Heng looked at Xu Yan with a sneer, leaning forward slightly, feeling a strong sense of oppression.
What was strong was not his cultivation, but the clothes he wore that gave Xu Yan too much pressure.
Xu Yan's eyes were a little dodgey. After all, people with ulterior motives will subconsciously feel guilty when the police come to their door.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"I can't remember. Let me help you think about it. Which disciple of the Five Elements Palace did you interact with? What did he... give you?"
The sneer at the corner of Qi Heng's mouth disappeared, and his expression was serious and cold.
"I know many disciples of the Five Elements Palace, but no one gives me anything..."
"Humph, I won't shed tears until I see the coffin."
Qi Heng took out the IOU and threw it at Xu Yan.
"Fat Liu has already recruited you today. According to the regulations of the Five Elements Palace, the spiritual stones he gave you are stolen money and need to be recovered.
Xu Yan, you are already guilty of harboring stolen money, but now that you still refuse to admit it, your crime will be increased.
If you hand over the stolen money honestly, we can forget about it, but if you persist in persisting, don't blame us for taking you back and torture you to extract a confession."
As soon as this statement came out, Xu Yan immediately panicked. In addition, the IOUs were taken out, and the evidence was conclusive, so he had no way of denying it.
What's more, among the monks in the immortal world, who is not afraid of the Five Elements Palace?
"It's all here."
Xu Yan took out a storage bag and handed it to Qi Heng.
When Fatty Liu originally handed over these spiritual stones to him and promised to give him three million spiritual stones as reward, he was still ecstatic. After all, he didn't have to do anything to get a large amount of spiritual stones for free. It was such a bargain.
.
As for what Fatty Liu was going to do, he didn't know, but he thought that if he handed these spiritual stones to an outsider, he must be doing something shady.
He had never thought of swallowing these spiritual stones before. After all, things belonging to the disciples of the Five Elements Hall were not so easy to get.
But later, he could no longer contact Fatty Liu, and he gradually began to guess that something might have happened to Fatty Liu and he was arrested.
He was worried. If something happened to Fatty Liu, he would definitely have to hand over the money. After all, it was stolen money. He knew it in his heart, but he was reluctant to hand over the fifty million spiritual stones.
So, he had a fluke mentality. If people from the Five Elements Palace came to ask for money, he would hand it over honestly. If no one came to ask for money, it meant that Fatty Liu was dead or had not paid, so he would keep it for himself.
.He didn't dare to run away, for fear that the Five Elements Palace would think he had absconded with dirty money and wanted him again, which would make him unable to explain.
But he waited and waited for more than ten years, but no one from the Five Elements Palace came to ask for the money. Gradually, he felt relieved and took the money as his own.
When a person owns things that do not belong to him for a long time, he will naturally regard those things as his own.
When the original owner came to ask for it, he was unwilling to return it to others.
Of course, this also depends on the situation. If the original owner is weak, he will definitely keep it for himself.
But now it is the Five Elements Palace who comes to ask for money...
When anyone faces the Five Elements Palace, they have no power to resist.
Xu Yan reluctantly handed over the money. After all, it was impossible not to hand over the money. The Five Elements Palace could forcibly collect it. Between freedom and jail, he could still make it clear.
After Qi Heng took the storage bag, he opened it and took a rough look. Sure enough, there were 50 million spiritual stones inside.
"The Sword Comes"
"Oh, you haven't spent any time in these more than ten years?"
Qi Heng sneered and looked Xu Yan up and down.
Xu Yan smiled bitterly and said nothing.
How dare he spend it? Maybe no one will come to take it for hundreds or thousands of years. He can try to spend it, but how long has passed now?
"Okay, let's go."
Qi Heng waved his hand and turned to leave. Suddenly Xu Yan spoke,
"Um... Fatty Liu promised to give me three million spiritual stones as a reward."
Hearing this, Qi Heng stopped and looked at Xu Yan in disbelief, dumbfounded.
"I said you were really blinded by the spirit stone, right? This is stolen money, and you can get it for less than a dollar. If you want your money back, go find Fat Liu."
Qi Heng smiled coldly, with a bit of mockery in his eyes,
"He is in the internal prison of Five Elements Palace. You can try to find him."
When Xu Yan heard this, his complexion turned blue and white. He dared not speak out in anger, so he could only act in anger.
Wan Lei looked at this person deeply, and then followed Qi Heng onto the airship.
The airship relocated to the Five Elements Palace and started teleportation.
It only took him less than a quarter of an hour from departure to return.
