When Mu Yeji heard the word "demon tomb", she became obviously excited. She took a step forward and said sternly: "Where is the master's tomb?"
"You know that there are modrons in the palace, but the palace is vast and there are many palaces. There can be modrons buried anywhere, but you have no idea where the modrons are." Xiahou Yuanzhen sighed. He said: "I know that many years ago, you sneaked into the palace several times, wanting to assassinate the saint and find the magic tomb, but in the end you all failed and failed."
Mu Yeji clenched her pink fists and asked sharply again: "Xiahou Yuanzhen, if you tell me where the tomb is, I can spare your daughter."
"Mu Yeji, have you never thought about whether the modron really exists?" Xiahou Yuanzhen said lightly: "I said that you know the existence of the modron, but someone wants to let you know. Although the theory of modrons is spread secretly, very few people in the world know about the existence of modrons."
Ye Guxing, who had been silent at this time, suddenly said: "Does the modron not exist?"
"I can't be sure." Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "When the news about the modron was spread, the original intention was to let the Sword Valley disciples get the news, come to Kyoto, and jump into the trap themselves." After a pause, he smiled calmly and said: "However, the caution of the Sword Valley disciples is unexpected. You have been waiting for three years. Within three years of Linghu Changle's death, none of the Sword Valley disciples sneaked into the palace. The ambush set by Xuanwu Hall was in vain for two years. Year."
"That's right, when the news first spread, the master's tomb is in the Xuanwu Hall." Mu Yeji said: "We are very suspicious of this news, but we are still preparing to send people to Beijing to sneak into the palace to find out what the situation is, but... ....Hmph, after Mo Laosan learned the news, he concluded that an ambush was set up in the palace. If we act on impulse and play into the thieves' ambitions, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave the palace alive."
Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "It seems that you knew back then that the magic tomb might be a trap to lure you into a trap."
"Actually, we didn't believe that Master was really killed at first, and as for the theory of the tomb, we certainly didn't believe it either." Mu Yeji said slowly: "But when we got the news, almost a year had passed since the incident. After the master came down the mountain, there was no news." After a pause, he continued: "Although the master travels abroad all year round, he still takes time to return to Sword Valley every year. Even if he travels too far, at least there are letters sent to Sword Valley. Valley, there will never be any news."
Xiahou Qingcheng saw the Prime Minister's body swaying slightly. He was obviously frightened and was old. He kept standing, and his physical strength was a little weak. He hurriedly stepped forward, supported Xiahou Yuanzhen, and asked softly: "Dad ,How are you?"
The Prime Minister shook his head and said to Mu Yeji: "You didn't act rashly. Do you not believe that Linghu Changle is dead?"
"There has been no news about the master for a year, but suddenly there are rumors that he was killed in the palace, and a tomb was built in the palace to bury the master." Mu Yeji said: "When such news spread to Sword Valley, we Of course, I was extremely shocked, but soon I felt that it was just nonsense. Most of the rumors in the world were groundless. We all know that the master's cultivation has entered the realm of the ninth-grade grandmaster. There were only a few people who hurt him, let alone the incident in the Tang Palace, how could Master come to the Tang Palace inexplicably?"
The Prime Minister smiled mysteriously and said: "It turns out you don't know, it turns out he didn't tell you...!"
His words were somewhat incomprehensible. Mu Yeji was stunned, and Ye Guxing was also a little confused. Obviously, they didn't know what the Prime Minister meant.
"Tell us what?" Mu Yeji asked: "Xiahou Yuanzhen, what do you know?"
The Prime Minister said calmly: "Since he didn't tell you, I told you, you will think it's nonsense even more." Without continuing the topic, he asked: "You don't believe that Linghu Changle died in the palace, so you didn't take immediate action."
"Mo Laosan told us that if the news is false and is a rumor fabricated by someone, then Master is naturally safe and sound, and there is no need for us to cause more trouble." Mu Yeji said: "If it is true, Master
If he is really murdered in the Tang Palace, then there is an extremely sinister conspiracy. To murder the Master, it is necessary to go through careful arrangements, and no mistakes can be made in every step. If it succeeds, the fewer people will know about it, the more likely it will be.
Okay, why did the Tang Palace spread the news? And there are very few people in the world who know about it. Instead, the news spread to Sword Valley far outside the pass. There must be something fishy in this."
"Sword disciples are indeed very intelligent." The Prime Minister said: "Your guess is not wrong. After Linghu Changle died, someone deliberately spread the news of his death in the palace to Sword Valley, and set up an ambush in Xuanwu Palace.
, just waiting for the disciples of Sword Valley to fall into the trap."
Mu Yeji immediately said: "You said someone deliberately spread the news, aren't you talking about yourself?"
"If I said that I was just at the mercy of others in the plan to kill Linghu Changle, would you believe it?" Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "If I said that I had no choice but to be involved at the time, would you believe it?"
Mu Yeji said: "Of course I don't believe it. After we got the news, we finally decided not to act rashly, but we still sent people to the capital to find out the news. Among our senior brothers and sisters, Cui Jingjia has the most calm temperament and is cautious in doing things, so we sent him there
Kyoto." His beautiful eyes were as cold as daggers, and he said: "When he arrived in Kyoto, the Demon Queen had just ascended the throne, and Kyoto was in chaos. Countless loyal ministers and generals died tragically in the hands of the Demon Queen. And even before Cui Jingjia arrived in Kyoto, the Demon Queen had just
As soon as he ascended the throne, he issued a proclamation, treating the disciples of Sword Valley as traitors, and even made the master the most vicious person in history. He also said that the chief culprit had been killed, and whoever could hunt down the disciples of Sword Valley, regardless of life or death, would be killed.
All are rewarded heavily."
Xiahou Qingcheng was surprised and said: "Is... the saint killed your master?"
"Since she issued an edict to the world, she naturally admitted that she killed the master." Mu Yeji said: "Xiahou Yuanzhen, the Demon Queen murdered the master, do you dare to say that you were not involved in it?"
Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "Yes, I did know about the plan to kill Linghu Changle in advance. But I said that at that time I had no way out and could only go one way to the end. But the whole plan was not only not planned by me, but also I
It’s just a chess piece in it.”
"I won't argue with you." Mu Yeji said calmly: "We are convinced that after the master was murdered, we waited for three years. We know that after three years, even if there is an ambush in the Tang Palace, they will be much more relaxed. Our people sneaked in There are only two things in the palace, one is to assassinate the Demon Queen, and the other is to find the master's remains and bring them back to Sword Valley."
Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "Of course you gained nothing. There are no magic tombs in Xuanwu Hall, and you can't hurt the saint at all."
"The Demon Tomb is not in the Xuanwu Hall." Mu Yeji said: "The Tang Palace is heavily guarded. Senior Brother and Cui Jingjia lurked in the palace for several days, looking for traces of the Demon Queen. When they found an opportunity to take action, they discovered the Demon Queen's side. There is a great master."
"Many people know that the Great Heavenly Master Yuan Fengjing in the palace is a ninth-grade grandmaster, but not many people know that Wei Wuya, who is always guarding the saint, is also a great master." Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "In the palace There are two great masters protecting the saint, who can hurt her?" He smiled calmly and said: "Two disciples of Sword Valley sneaked into the palace to assassinate the saint. I know that. Fortunately, Wei Wuya couldn't determine how many disciples there were. The famous Sword Valley disciples entered the palace and were worried that you would attack the east and west, so they did not dare to leave the saint's side to pursue them. Otherwise, if he had tried his best to pursue them, your two senior brothers would have died in the palace that year."
Mu Yeji did not deny it. She nodded slightly and said, "Yes, so after that incident, we know that it is not easy to kill the Demon Queen and avenge the master."
"So if you want to succeed, there are only two ways." Xiahou Yuanzhen said: "Either you practice hard and reach several levels of Great Heaven. Some people can even reach the level of ninth-grade grandmaster, so that you can have a showdown with Wei Wuya. High and low. Apart from this, the only chance is for Wei Wuya to leave the palace and not be able to guard the saint." At this point, he suddenly realized something, his body shook, his pupils shrank, and he stared at Mu Yeji and said: "It turns out In this way, I understand, it turns out... Ning'er's death was caused by this!"
"oh?"
"I'm extremely confused." Xiahou Yuanzhen said angrily: "Ning'er was killed in Hangzhou. I always thought it was because your Jiangu hated the Xiahou family and killed her in Hangzhou just to avenge Linghu Changle's murder. Now I finally understand. , your purpose is to lure Wei Wuya out of the palace...!" But his body began to tremble, one hand shook violently, and he said solemnly: "You... you attack in the east and in the west, and drive Wei Wuya away. Ya led him outside the customs, but sneaked into Kyoto to find an opportunity to attack...!"
