Just as Huo Xiu was thinking about how to deal with the Qin Hall Master, the Ning Mansion Lord suddenly asked: "Huo Xiu, I called you over today, in fact, there is one more matter. You didn't seem to be affected by the self-explosion when Huai extinguished, how did you do that?"

Huo Xiu's breath suddenly stagnated, and he had vaguely guessed that the Ning Mansion Lord would most likely ask about this before he came. Now that he was really asked, he was a little surprised.

However, Huo Xiu quickly calmed down his emotions and said, "Return to the Ning Mansion Lord." Before I came to Hemu Town, I had read a lot of information, and I knew that some demon clans would not hesitate to blow themselves up before they died, in order to achieve the purpose of pulling people back. Moreover, at that time, everyone was on their own side, lest Huai Xuan suddenly escape. I'm a little bit farther away, so I haven't been affected much. ”

When the Ning Mansion Lord heard this, he nodded thoughtfully.

But at this moment, Hall Master Qin snorted coldly, and said in a strange manner: "I said it clearly when I was timid, and I also found some high-sounding reasons, which is really ridiculous." You're just playing tricks, and those feats shouldn't have been given to you in the first place. ”

Huo Xiu's face turned cold, and he bit his lip tightly, trying to contain his emotions.

At this time, the Ning Mansion Master waved his hand impatiently, signaling the Qin Hall Master not to say any more.

Then, he turned his head and said with a smile: "Huo Xiu, since you were on the periphery when Huai extinguished himself, did you notice anything abnormal?"

Huo Xiu's eyes were raised, and he looked at the Ning Mansion Lord with a puzzled face. It was a long time before he shook his head.

"Nope. At that time, the situation at the scene was very chaotic, and there was a lot of flying sand and rocks, and it was impossible to see the direction at all. I also managed to survive by hiding behind a house. By the way, Lord Ning, didn't you bring back some Mu Xin from the scene, what did you find there?"

Huo Xiu knew very well that the information he had grasped from Huai Xuan's mouth was incomplete, and it was difficult for him to have much value. Moreover, the Qin Hall Master, who was now quite dissatisfied with him, was next to him.

Once Huo Xiu said it, the imperfections in it would definitely be used by the Qin Hall Master for criticism. It's better to bite to death and completely cut off this hidden danger.

After listening to Huo Xiu's answer, a trace of regret suddenly appeared on his face.

"It would be nice if we could find anything, we have so little information now that we don't know where the other party came from, let alone where they are?"

Suddenly, Huo Xiu remembered the clone who had fled, and immediately asked, "Lord Ning, didn't Sun Yan, the doppelganger of Huai Annihilation, run away?

The Ning Mansion Lord sighed softly and said, "We have notified the various areas where Hemu Town is stationed and asked them to keep an eye on Sun Yan's whereabouts. But there was so little information that there was no trace of it. Looks like we're going to have to send more people. ”

Suddenly, everyone present was silent. This escaped Sun Yan is like a fish in his throat, and if he is not found for a day, Hemu Town will not be peaceful for a day.

As martial artists, their tasks are even more arduous, and finding out Sun Yan will be their top priority. It's a huge operation, and it's enough for them to keep them busy.

At this moment, Hall Master Fu suddenly asked: "Lord Ning, now that the matter is over, we might as well scatter all the martial artists who explore the hall and turn the area here upside down, I don't believe we can't find their hiding place." ”

The Ning Mansion Lord nodded, but there was still a lot of worry on his face.

"This matter is very serious, I can't be the master alone, I must ask the four lords of the headquarters to make a decision. Well, that's it for today, everyone must remember that this matter must not be leaked. ”

Seeing this, Huo Xiu knew that it was not interesting to stay any longer, so he immediately said goodbye and left.

What Huo Xiu didn't know was that as soon as he left, the Lord of Ning Mansion summoned the two hall masters back and discussed them secretly.

At this time, Hall Master Qin seemed to be preparing for Qin Sheng's funeral, and he was very impatient with the sudden recall of the Lord of the Ning Mansion.

"Lord Ning, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it, don't delay time. ”

The corners of the Ning Mansion Lord's mouth rose, and he didn't speak, but instead took out a few pieces of broken wood.

When Hall Master Qin saw it, he couldn't help but get irritable.

"Lord Ning, what do you mean? I don't have the leisure to accompany you to see through the wood. If nothing else, then I'll take my leave. ”

Hall Master Qin said, turning around and leaving.

But at this moment, Hall Master Fu suddenly screamed.

"There's something wrong with this wood!"

"What!?"

Hall Master Qin immediately turned his head and looked in the direction that Hall Master Fu was pointing.

Suddenly, his breathing stagnated, and he froze.

Because after the pieces of wood were put together, a fist-sized hole appeared in it.

The cavity was smooth and covered with capillary-like veins, and it looked like something extraordinary had been hidden inside.

At this time, the Lord of the Ning Mansion also explained on the side: "I have already asked someone to see it, and what these pieces of wood are wrapped in is the core of this tree demon, which can also be called seeds. Now, everyone understands what I mean. ”

Hall Master Qin's eyes widened, and he immediately lost his voice and shouted.

"The core of this guy is not here, which means that it may not really be dead, and it is very likely to escape. ”

The head of the Ning Mansion agreed, and then, he continued: "When we entered the middle of Xiaolin Village, we have been fighting against Huai Xuan, and at that time, Huai Xuan naturally has no possibility of transferring the core, and even if there is, it can't escape our detection. However, the only time when there is a break is when Huai extinguishes and self-destructs. We all ran out desperately, and naturally we didn't care about anything else, which gave Huai Xuan an opportunity to take advantage of. What's even more paradoxical is that we didn't find it at all!"

Hall Master Fu frowned, and said slowly: "What can a fist-sized thing do, since we haven't found it, then it's either finished, or let people secretly let it go." ”

Suddenly, Hall Master Qin slapped his thigh and immediately stood up.

"I know, Huo Xiu's kid was not affected when he exploded, and it is indeed possible that he can help the core of Huai Xuan escape, that is to say, he is the most suspicious. You wait, I'll tie him up now. ”

When the Ning Mansion Lord heard this, his face turned cold, and he scolded sharply: "Sit down! Now that the whole thing has not been figured out, you can't wait, aren't you afraid of startling the snake?" Also, I have secretly investigated Huo Xiu's situation, and I have not found any signs of collusion with the demon clan at all. Therefore, this matter must be considered in the long term, and must not be rushed. ”
