In the blink of an eye, Lu Ping'an and the three of them had returned to Yunjian Gate from Fengjian City.

Lu Ping'an was still imprisoned in the cell of Houfeng Prison.

After Yan Zhengtao reactivated the cell formation, he briefly explained a few words, and then turned around and left.

Mu Qing continued to stay outside the cell door and discussed with Lu Ping'an about tomorrow's high-level meeting.

Everything was calm, as if the Supreme Holy Emperor of Dongyu Kingdom had never come, nor had it brought a huge crisis to Lu Ping'an, Mu Qing and others.

And apart from the three of them and Qi Yong, no one else knew what had happened.

It was a night like usual.

In Mu Qing's opinion, if nothing happens, Lu Ping'an will be able to regain his freedom tomorrow, but he just needs to accept a small punishment.

After Lu Ping'an heard what Mu Qing said, he asked, "Senior sister, are you really so confident?"

Mu Qing said a little proudly: "Of course, otherwise what do you think I was doing a few days ago?" I'm working hard for tomorrow's high-level meeting!"

Lu Ping'an arched his hand and said, "Senior sister, you have worked hard. ”

Mu Qing waved his hand and said, "As long as you can be punished less, no matter how hard it is, it's worth it." ”

Lu Ping'an said: "But I guess Senior Brother Yan didn't want to punish me heavily from the beginning. ”

Mu Qing frowned and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you forgotten what kind of attitude he had a few days ago? And before he was convicted, he locked you up in such a place, I think he is clearly ill-intentioned and has a personal vendetta!"

"Senior Sister, as I said before, in fact, we have misunderstood Senior Brother Yan a little......"

Then, Lu Ping'an relayed the previous conversations between him and Yan Zhengtao to Mu Qing.

But after listening to this, Mu Qing still felt a little incredulous, and said, "You mean, he imprisoned you here to prevent the old guy from the Supreme Holy Emperor from finding you directly?"

Lu Ping'an nodded and said, "That's right, so Senior Brother Yan is not only enforcing the rules and precepts of the door, but also thinking about me." ”

Mu Qing said: "The struggle back then did cause a lot of people to die in the sect, and he hated the court of Dongyu Kingdom because of this, so he chose to help you secretly, which is reasonable, it sounds like that." But the question is, what else did he say that the Cloud Sword Sect would stand with you? If he really thought so, then why didn't he say this when we talked about the Demon Sect just now?"

Lu Ping'an said: "Maybe Senior Brother Yan has his own considerations, but anyway, that's what he told me before, and I feel more credible." ”

Mu Qing thought for a while and said: "I still think that you can't trust that guy easily, don't listen to what he says, but see what he actually does, if he can acquiesce to give you the lightest punishment tomorrow, then I believe that he has good intentions, otherwise, it means that he is lying to you." ”

Lu Ping'an said: "What's the benefit of him lying to me?"

Mu Qing said: "In order for you to deal with the matter of the Supreme Holy Emperor wholeheartedly, after all, if something really happens, he will be responsible." ”

Lu Ping'an still preferred to believe Yan Zhengtao, and said, "I feel ...... Probably not, right?"

Mu Qing said: "That's not easy to say, he is cold and serious on the surface, and he is fair, but in fact, the city is very deep, I have known him for more than a hundred years, and I still can't figure out what kind of person he is, do you think you can make an exact judgment on him just by just a few words he said?" Lu Ping'an was silent for a while, and said: "It is indeed not a simple matter to make an accurate judgment on a person, but Senior Brother Yan is a person from our Cloud Sword Sect, so there is no need to be too defensive about him, right?"

Mu Qing said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, how did his master die, the person he admired was killed by the Dongyu Imperial Court, he will hate the Dongyu Imperial Court, so what about his master's death? ”

Lu Ping'an thought for a moment and said, "It makes sense, maybe I'm a little rash this time." ”

Mu Qing had always been more serious just now, but at this time, he smiled softly and said, "But it's a good thing that you are willing to trust others with good intentions, in fact, I can't be sure what the Yama King thinks, just remind you that in the face of his situation, you still need to be more vigilant." ”

Lu Ping'an said: "Well, I understand. ”

Mu Qing said: "Don't think about anything else for the time being, tomorrow at the high-level meeting, behave better, admit your mistakes with a sincere attitude, and after this matter is resolved, we will study the matter of the Demon Sect again." ”

Lu Ping'an said: "Senior Sister Lao, you bothered. ”

The two chatted for a while, and Mu Qing said goodbye and left.

Lu Ping'an stayed alone in the cell, meditating and meditating, but for some reason, he was always faintly uneasy in his heart.

......

Early the next morning, the high-level meeting of Yunjianmen was held as scheduled.

Outside the main peak hall, a large number of people gathered, which can be described as a sea of people.

Although most of them were hall masters or disciples who couldn't participate in the high-level meeting, they were all very concerned about this matter and wanted to see what kind of punishment Lu Ping'an would end up with.

According to Mu Qing's understanding a few days ago, in fact, many people still support Lu Ping'an, they feel that even if Lu Ping'an really violates the rules and precepts of the door, it is understandable, and there is no need to punish him heavily, just symbolically punish him.

It is precisely because of this that Mu Qing will have the confidence to help Lu Ping'an win a light sentence.

In the main hall, the number of people was small, but most of the high-ranking sect members had already arrived on time.

Everyone stood on both sides, and Mu Qing and Yan Zhengtao stood at the front of each side.

The two of them were in opposite positions at this meeting, and it was normal for them to stand like this.

But the position of others does not represent a position.

In addition, although Yan Zhengtao was the acting head, since he was going to come forward as the Lord of the Bamboo Peak Peak this time, he could only let the respected Great Elder of the Main Peak to preside over the meeting.

But the Great Elder did not have the final decision, and everything still depended on the results of the deliberations of all the high-level sects.

"Everyone is here, right?"

The Great Elder, who was sitting at the top of the main hall, asked.

One of the elders in charge of the matter replied, "Except for those who have said in advance that they can't come because of something, they are all here. ”

The Great Elder said, "Okay, then bring Elder Lu Ping'an first." ”

Prior to this, Lu Ping'an had been brought to the main peak from the Houfeng Prison.

And now that the Great Elder gave an order, someone led him into the main hall.

He didn't have any shackles or anything like that, and he wasn't controlled by the power, he just walked in normally.

The eyes of almost all the high-level members of the sect were subconsciously focused on him, but they had different ideas.

"Great Elder, the man has been brought. ”

The person who came in with Lu Ping'an arched his hand and said.

The Great Elder nodded and said, "Okay, then let's officially start today's meeting." ”

The main hall, which was still a little quiet, immediately became quiet.

Then, the Great Elder said: "This meeting was convened by Lord Mu Feng of Yunfeng with the consent of most of the high-level sect leaders, and the content of the meeting was mainly to discuss the issue of how Elder Lu asked Lord Mu Feng to help Cangwu Kingdom fight, and how to punish him......

At this time, Yan Zhengtao stood up and said, "Before that, I want to say one thing first......

Mu Qing was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you want to say?" If it has nothing to do with the content of this meeting, don't talk nonsense. ”

Yan Zhengtao said: "Of course it is related, and it is also closely related, and it will even directly affect the severity of Elder Lu's punishment." ”

The Great Elder said, "Since that's the case, then Lord Yan Feng, you can say it." ”

Yan Zhengtao said: "Actually, the matter is very simple, but the nature of his behavior is extremely bad, as we all know, before the punishment result was officially determined, I temporarily imprisoned Elder Lu in the Houfeng Prison, but I didn't expect that it was just last night...... He's escaped from prison!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was suddenly in an uproar.

"What?!"

"This is too lawless!"

"Escaping from prison is a felony!"

The high-level sect leaders in the main hall immediately began to discuss in amazement.

But the most surprising among them were Lu Ping'an and Mu Qing.

Mu Qing wanted to scold Yan Zhengtao, saying that he had clearly promised that he would never mention last night's incident, but now he is going back on his word and accusing Lu Ping'an of escaping from prison? !

However, she quickly reacted, if she really did this, it would be tantamount to not admitting herself, and Yan Zhengtao did not mention that Lu Ping'an killed Qi Zhu and attracted the Taishang Holy Emperor, if you really want to dig deeper, he did not break his promise.

But this kind of slander made Mu Qing feel very angry, and he had to think about it carefully before he could refute him, and he couldn't be implicated in those things last night.

What Lu Ping'an thought was not much different from Mu Qing.

The only difference is that Mu Qing has always been suspicious of Yan Zhengtao, but Lu Ping'an believed Yan Zhengtao last night, thinking that he was really a good person, but he was more stern and cold on the surface.

But I never expected that Mu Qing was right, Yan Zhengtao can't be easily trusted!

He did that last night, probably just to let Lu Ping'an solve the matter of the Supreme Holy Emperor with peace of mind, and he didn't really think about Lu Ping'an.

And now he is openly framing Lu Ping'an, I am afraid that it is also for his master's business, and he is taking revenge on Lu Ping'an!

But fortunately, Mu Qing had already reminded Lu Ping'an last night, so that he was on guard in his heart, so that he would not be hit too hard now.

It's just that he inevitably feels that he is a little naïve and underestimates the complexity and sinister nature of people's hearts, so he can't help but smile wryly.

And just when everyone was talking and thinking about it, Yan Zhengtao said loudly: "Elder Lu is already guilty, and if he dares to escape from prison, it is a crime of one more degree! In my opinion, a person like him who ignores the rules and precepts of the sect, or even provokes the majesty of the sect, should be punished with the most severe punishment!"
