Taoist priest Yuan Ming of Xuanyun Sect has sharp eyebrows, his thin face is even more gloomy, and his eyebrows are cold.
"City Lord Yuchi, Captain Wu has been investigating the tragic death of Master Nephew Fang Xing for more than three months. He has not returned yet, and his life and death are unknown. I have told him that Mo Jiuxuan is a cruel man with a wolfish heart, and letting him go to help Captain Wu is letting the tiger go back to the mountain."
City Lord Yuchi stared at the dark circles under his eyes and put one hand on his waist. He worked hard last night and yawned, "Wu Duwei is smart and capable, and he is my confidant.
Mo Jiuxuan brought his daughter, and his wife's master was in the Wuji Sect, so he would not take risks.
They must have encountered something and waited patiently."
Taoist Priest Yuan Ming stared at Yuchi Qishui with a sinister gaze, not having any good impressions of this city lord who liked romance and lusted after women.
It's just that this is Muhua City, not Xuanyun Sect, so I suppressed my temper and didn't get angry and let the city lord handle it.
After hearing Yuchi's words, he felt angry in his heart.
"The place where nephew Fang Xing died was only eighty miles away from Muhua City. They went to investigate, but there was no reply for three months. Where would they go? Could it be that they went to Donghua Mountain to kill the demon clan?
City Lord Yuchi, if you let Mo Jiuxuan escape out of luck, wouldn't you be slapping yourself in the face?
How about this, I send a few Xuanyun Sect disciples to bring Mo Jiuxuan back. If he resists, kill him on the spot and seek justice for Master Nephew Kong."
Yuchi Qishui's sleepy eyes suddenly gleamed, his round figure exuded a fierce aura, and his voice was low and full of oppression.
"Taoist Priest Yuanming, this is Muhua City, and we must act in accordance with the rules of Muhua City."
Taoist Priest Yuan Ming stared at Yuchi Qishui for a long time, then he rolled up his sleeves in displeasure, hummed, and said to Taoist Tianyu who was closing his eyes and concentrating, "Tianyu, Fang Xing is your disciple. You stay here in silence.
What does it mean to be silent?
Don't you feel anxious?"
"In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, Muhua City was a city jointly funded and built by all the major sects in Qingzhou for the purpose of the reproduction of the human race. The older generation had already agreed that in Muhua City, they must obey the arrangements of the city lord.
Not to mention you, even the Jindan elders of Shuijing Sect and Cangyu Sword Sect must do this when they come here.
Don't be anxious, the Lord of Yuchi City is talented and thoughtful, and he will naturally give us a satisfactory answer."
Taoist Master Tianyu calmed down his friend's mood and closed his eyes in the presence of the old god.
It has been more than three months since I came here, and Fang Xing has made no progress in his plan. He, the head of the Ziyun Sect, is also anxious.
However, Muhua City has a special status in Qingzhou, and the status of the city lord is even more special. If you are not careful, it will become an excuse for other sects to attack. Otherwise, how can Yuchi Qishui be able to secure Muhua with the strength of the fourth level of foundation building?
The position of the city lord?
He could only suppress his impatience and act calmly.
Taoist priest Yuan Ming was sulking alone.
He was impatient and had a hot temper. After hearing that his friend, Taoist Priest Tianyu's disciples were brutally murdered, and the murderer was Mo Jiuxuan, he immediately rushed to Muhua City to support Taoist Priest Tianyu.
The Xuanyun Sect has a profound foundation and great ambitions. The sect leader is determined to build the sect into one of the three major sects in Qingzhou, and has won over people's hearts for hundreds of years.
It was precisely because of this that he turned a blind eye to Taoist Priest Yuan Ming's help to the Ziyun Sect.
After all, Tianyu and Yuan Ming have this friendship, and Tianyu, a golden elixir monk, may not be able to help Xuanyun Sect enter the second-rate sect in the future.
The hall was quiet, with several respected bosses each thinking.
Suddenly, someone outside the door reported, "Captain Wu Qingxu has returned from being ordered to investigate the case. Please see the city lord."
"oh?"
Taoist Priest Yuan Ming suddenly sat up straight, regained his energy, and said hastily, "Then why don't you let him in?"
The soldier reporting outside the door still bowed with his hands clasped in his fists, ignoring Taoist Priest Yuan Ming of the Jindan period, and waited for the city lord to speak.
Taoist Priest Yuan Ming realized that the man ignored him at all, and his anger reached the extreme.
If it were anywhere else, he would have slapped him away in a short period of refining his energy, but this was Muhua City, and the soldiers in the city lord's palace were not under his control, so he could only sit back in his chair and sulk.
Yuchi Qishui waited for a long time as if demonstrating, and then said calmly, "Bring him in!"
The soldier graciously agreed, and when he walked out, his clothes made friction sounds, and he was filled with a feeling of iron blood.
Looking at the departing warriors, the great master of Xuanyun Sect felt that he seemed to have been insulted. A small foundation-building monk dared to humiliate Master Jindan.
Yuchi Qishui, if given the chance, I will make you pay for your arrogance today... Yuan Ming thought fiercely.
When Wu Qingxu walked into the main hall, Yuchi Qishui couldn't believe his eyes. This was not the captain of the city lord's palace, but a refugee who had escaped from nowhere.
The uniform of the City Lord's Mansion was in tatters and full of stains. Wu Qingxu's face was haggard and his cheeks were sunken. Only the general appearance showed that he was Wu Duwei.
When Wu Qingxu saw the city lord again, he was full of grievances and hurriedly took a few steps forward and knelt down, "Wu Qingxu has met the city lord."
Thinking of Tongze's death, he felt sad in his heart, which diluted the joy of returning home.
"Captain Wu, what are you...?"
Looking at Wu Qingxu, who had lost a lot of weight, Yuchi Qishui felt a little distressed. After all, he was his own soldier.
"Captain Wu, where is Mo Jiuxuan?"
With no trace of Mo Jiuxuan, Taoist Priest Yuan Ming immediately concluded that he was absconding in fear of crime, and all this was due to Yuchi Qishui's stupidity and Wu Qingxu's incompetence.
The tone of his words was quite impolite.
As a member of the City Lord's Mansion, Wu Qingxu ignored him at all and only looked at the City Lord with a pair of sharp eyes.
"Reporting to the city lord, after many investigations by my subordinates, I found that Kong Xing's death had nothing to do with Mo Jiuxuan, but there was another hidden reason."
"Oh, what do you mean by this?" Yuchi Qishui moved his body and found that there was no room left for the Taishi chair made of mahogany.
Taoist Master Tianyu opened his narrowed eyes, and he also wanted to know the truth.
"What nonsense!"
Taoist Priest Yuanming was indignant, "Mo Jiuxuan first used poisonous elixirs to induce Kong Xing to be poisoned, and then colluded with the demon clan to kill and silence his daughter in order to avenge the Ziyun Sect. This matter has been concluded."
Wu Qingxu, you recruited him truthfully, did Mo Jiuxuan give you a benefit, and you were greedy for treasures, so you let him go?"
Wu Qingxu glanced at Yuan Ming in surprise, thinking that this old guy must be sick!
You said it as if you have seen all of this. Could it be that Brother Mo had offended this old man when?
So I ignored him.
After being ignored again and again, the elder of the Xuanyun Sect could no longer suppress his anger. The wind roared in the hall as his breath surged, and the bookcases and potted plants fell to the floor, leaving a mess everywhere.
"Yuan Ming!"
Priest Tianyu spoke up to stop Priest Yuan Ming from roaring angrily. He looked at Wu Qingxu and said politely, "Please tell me the truth, Captain Wu."
Wu Qingxu looked at Yuchi, who raised his chin at him, and Wu Qingxu understood.
He and Mo Jiuxuan examined Fang Xing's body in the ice room, encountered the attack in the outdoor tavern, and everything that happened in Suolong Ridge in detail.
There was no emotion mixed in during this period, just like a bystander, he told everything in detail.
After finishing speaking, he stood up silently and stepped aside.
As expected, Taoist Priest Yuan Ming was the first to jump up, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Junior nephew Yuan Qing is humble and gentle, and treats others with sincerity. How could he take revenge on Mo Jiuxuan for what happened twenty years ago? How could he conspire?"
How can you collude with the demon clan and willingly become a slave of the demon clan if you harm your fellow disciples?"
Wu Qingxu still didn't say a word. He knew that Xuanyun Sect was acting domineeringly, so he was not polite to Taoist Priest Yuanming.
Just like now, no matter what the facts are, he still doesn't believe the things he believes in and relies on others to lie.
Taoist Priest Tianyu seemed to have aged dozens of years in an instant, his whole person was much less angry, and he looked no different from that aging mortal.
Yuan Ming couldn't stand it, "Taoist Master Tianyu, this guy is full of lies, don't believe him! Don't worry, since the people in the City Lord's Mansion are unreliable, I will send a few smart and capable disciples to handle this matter, and they will definitely investigate the matter.
I’ll get to the bottom of it and give you a satisfactory answer.”
For a moment, Taoist Master Tianyu seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He grabbed Yuan Ming's wrist, his joints turned white, his cloudy eyes were full of hope, and he nodded heavily.
As a father, he would rather die than believe that his son looked down on him as a father, and would rather die than believe that his son would be ruthless enough to kill the fellow disciples who grew up with him.
What is even more unbelievable is that a human monk is willing to be a slave of the demon clan.
Yuchi Qi frowned subconsciously and asked Wu Qingxu, "Is there any evidence?"
"Yes!" Wu Qingxu said firmly.
Tianyu and Yuanming stared at him together.
A piece of milky white jade floated quietly in front of Wu Qingxu, its surface filled with aura.
Then, a battle scene in an outdoor tavern in the Donghua Mountains appeared in the center of the hall.
This was given to him quietly by Mo Jiuxuan before leaving.
The white jade was a gift given to Mo Jiuxuan by a former casual cultivator. When he was fighting with Fang Yuanqing, he quietly sacrificed the beads and recorded what happened at that time.
The picture is ten feet high, and the voices of the characters inside are clearly audible.
It was exactly the scene when Fang Yuan Qingyu and several of his sect members formed a formation to ambush Mo Jiuxuan and his group with the demon clan.
After watching this, the scene turned to a mountain top full of ravines. Countless green vines spread out behind Fang Yuanqing, and his whole body was covered with disgusting black evil spirit. To say that he was a human was simply an insult to the eyes of the human race.
The scene suddenly stopped in the golden light that filled the sky. Faced with that majestic blow, everyone knew that Fang Yuanqing was dead.
Taoist priest Yuanming was speechless and his face was slightly red. He wanted to help Tianyu, whose knees were weak, but he didn't know how to help him, so he just stayed aside.
Taoist Master Tianyu lowered his face, unable to see clearly the expression on his face, and he did not have a good expression on his face.
After a while, he stood up, with a fierce look in his eyes, staring at a rockery outside the gate, as if he was talking to Yuan Ming, or to himself.
"The revenge of killing a son is different from Dai Tian. I want to go to Donghua Mountain."
Yuchi Qishui's light voice sounded, "So, if the theory doesn't make sense, just talk about physics?"
Taoist priest Tianyu ignored the other party's ridicule, pushed Yuan Ming aside arrogantly, and strode out of the city lord's mansion.
Behind him, Taoist Priest Yuan Ming sighed deeply.
Taoist priest Tianyu is gone now. Even though he has avenged his son, he has done something that goes against his own state of mind, and his heart is broken.
