Chapter 922: The Guardian
I thought Wang Xuan was vigilant, so it was the same as when he came. Left sway, right sway. And Sanniang went straight up the mountain. Early in the morning, I returned to the gate of Fengshen Mountain. But just as Sanniang entered the sect, a powerful divine thought locked Sanniang. Sanniang's whole body trembled suddenly. That's complete hierarchical suppression. Not fear, but a tremor from the soul.
Sanniang's stealth was suddenly broken. Several guards guarding the door were stunned for a moment.
"Take her down!" the guard said to the side.
A group of guards rushed up, Sanniang's strength was not very strong, and she was locked by the strong at this time. At this time, she was very scared and worried. He didn't resist at all, and was caught by the guards. And at this time, an old man with even blue hair fell from the sky, and Sanniang felt that the consciousness that locked on him had been removed.
"Old Ancestor!" the guards were very respectful when they saw this old man.
And the old man had already set his eyes on Sanniang at this time. "ShadowClan? I didn't expect there to be ShadowClan. The original survivors?"
"Senior, the little girl has no intention of offending. For a reason, I left here in the morning. Now I've just returned to here, and I've forgotten to remove my invisibility. If you have offended, please forgive your seniors. Ying Sanniang said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Oh, so you're a guest, whose guest, if you're lying. I'll punish you heavily!" the old man began.
"Under is Wang Luochen's friend who is breaking through. and Lin Xuan are in the same group. You can send someone to inquire and it will be clear!" Sanniang said.
The old man motioned for one of the guards to check on the matter. The old man continued to look for Sanniang. This person is the third head of Fengshen Mountain. It's called Wang Bo. A strong man at the pinnacle of the upper gods. It is precisely because of this that I sensed the existence of Sanniang. If Wang Zhiyuan were here, he would never be able to sense Sanniang's existence.
Soon, Lin Xuan took Wang Zhiyuan to the mountain gate.
"Are you okay?" Lin Xuan came to Sanniang's side and asked.
"It's okay, it's just starting to be a little nervous!" Sanniang said embarrassedly.
Wang Zhiyuan came to the old man's side and bowed respectfully. "Ancestor!"
"Zhiyuan, what's going on?, this Shadow Clan's descendant is a guest?" the old man asked.
"Ancestor, she is indeed a guest. Why did you come out to make your rounds? Don't you have to cultivate?"
"I already know about last night's incident, such a big thing, you still want to suppress it? Wang Luochen's kid has been unanimously approved by our guardians, and he is the next leader. And the future head is now being assassinated, which is a challenge for us in Fengshenshan. This matter must be strictly investigated. I heard you've found the suspect?" the old man asked.
"Ancestor, where did you learn about this? I should have suppressed this matter, and I have issued a ban to pass this matter on to you. But you know so quickly. Someone must have reported the news, right?" Wang Zhiyuan affirmed.
Wang Zhiyuan can be said to be very serious at this time, and he is still very confident in his own ability. These guardians have been cultivating all year round, and they usually don't care about the world at all. They don't know about the big and small things in the sect. This time it actually alarmed this older guy to come out, and someone must have deliberately told the news. Otherwise, it would not have reached his ears.
"Zhiyuan, don't investigate who it is. It is more important to find out who the murderer is as soon as possible. I've heard you've found seven suspects. They are all the heroes of the younger generation of our Fengshen Mountain. Why do you suspect them, is there any evidence?"
"At the beginning, I was in the air with Lin Xuan to find out who that sneaky guy was. Then I found a secret tunnel in the sect. And this tunnel leads to the room of these seven disciples. So the most suspicious thing is the seven of them. ”
Hearing Wang Zhiyuan's words, the old man said to the guards behind him: "You guys now arrest all the seven criminal suspects." Escort to the Guardian. Let's interrogate these people. ”
"Yes, Ancestor!" the guard said, turning to leave.
"Stop!" Wang Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.
The guards stood at the same time. The old man looked at Wang Zhiyuan curiously. "You're questioning my decision? I'm thinking about the bigger picture. ”
"Ancestor, you are the guardian of the sect. But things aren't there to bother you yet. Now I just have to do it my own way. You'd better go back and cultivate. I will inform you as soon as there is news. Wang Zhiyuan said.
"Hehe, Zhiyuan, you seem to be a lot more domineering today than before. But don't forget about seniority. Even your grandfather can't talk to me like that. But it's okay, I'll give you a chance. I'll give you a day. In one day, find the real murderer. Otherwise, I'll have to do it myself. Wang Luochen's child's safety, you must pay attention to me. I don't want to make a mess. Hmph!" the old man said, flicked his sleeves, and turned to leave.
At this time, everyone was very surprised. Especially Lin Xuan, he didn't expect Wang Zhiyuan to be so tough at a critical time. couldn't help but praise: "Master Wang, you are too powerful." That's the existence of the pinnacle of the upper god!"
"Hehe, although he is a senior. But the rules of the sect are the rules, and he can't change them. Everything in the sect is managed by me. They have no real power. Wang Zhiyuan said.
Hearing Wang Zhiyuan's words, Lin Xuanwei smiled and said, "Hehe, that's okay." If you are elevated as a head with only identity. That would be a bit tragic. How about senior, do you have any clues?"
Wang Zhiyuan said seriously, "No! Almost all of these disciples have been cultivating at home all year round. And it's even harder to find earth-attribute soul masters. The conditions and identities of the seven of them are almost the same. It's still the same as it was said at the beginning. They also have very few friends, and they are all in the sect. What clues can you find in a day? It's really over. If these seven disciples are handed over to the guardians, I am afraid that there will be many bad lucks. You know, murdering the head of the sect is a very serious crime. If they can't find out, all four of them will end up with a big punishment, and they may die. ”
Hearing Wang Zhiyuan's words, Lin Xuan asked Sanniang, "Didn't I let you keep an eye on those two people in the sect?
"I was about to talk about it. I already know who the murderer is!" Ying Sanniang said excitedly.
"Who is it?, do you have a harvest today?" Lin Xuan asked excitedly.
Wang Zhiyuan was obviously also very anxious, those seven children were all his outstanding disciples. It's okay to give up one. But if you give it all up, it will definitely be a huge loss for yourself. It is also the loss of Fengshen Mountain. At least those young powerhouses are all selected and cultivated by themselves. So in any case, if you can not use powerlessness, don't move.
"It's a man named Wang Xuan!" Sanniang said.
"Wang Xuan, how could it be him?"
"Why isn't it? That person has a connection with Guo Hao, the city lord of the Wind God City under the mountain. Moreover, the earth soul master was found by Guo Hao. But these two people are also in conflict now, if you are afraid that there is no evidence, you can try to start from Guo Hao. That guy seems to have some handle in Wang Xuan's hand. The conversation between the two of them, I'm standing next to them!" Sanniang smiled.
Hearing Sanniang's words, Lin Xuan and the others were stunned for a moment. Wang Zhiyuan said seriously: "What about Wang Xuan now?"
"I don't know about that. He walks strangely. It was as if someone was following him. Walk in the east, sway in the west. I thought he was walking slowly, so I ran back first!" Sanniang explained.
Hearing Sanniang's explanation, Lin Xuan suddenly smiled. "Senior, do you remember that guy I asked you to watch at night, walking in the east and swaying in the west. It's similar to this Wang Xuan's toss. ”
Wang Zhiyuan looked at Lin Xuan seriously. "Lin Xuan, you seem to have known that the murderer was not among those seven people, did you?"
"Sort of. I'm just a little confused. We entered the passage. I've put a ban on the entrance, and as long as someone opens it, I can sense it here. Later, shortly after we left, I sensed that someone had touched my inhibition. Because of this, I got to the crux of the problem. The momentum of the seven most suspicious people is not the real murderer. On the contrary, the least suspicious is the most likely. Thinking about the strength and aura of that guy last night, I asked my friends to help me keep an eye on the people in the sect who were equal to these seven people to see if there was anything suspicious. ”
"Later I found out that someone had been sent to watch over us outside the door of the courtyard where we were. I knew that the other party had started to pay attention. So I pretended I didn't know. Let the fox think I'm a suspect in these seven people. But I didn't know that I had already arranged for two people to go out. That is, the descendants of the Shadow Clan. I'm very relieved to have them to follow up. As long as it is not the existence of the peak of the upper gods, they have no chance of being recognized. This return is just a foreign thing. Lin Xuan said helplessly.
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, everyone nodded. Lin Xuan continued: "Okay, there's no need to say anything more now. Senior, there's only so much we can do to help you. ”
"Enough, enough! According to your analysis, I can guess who informed the old ancestor of them. If you are not mistaken, it should be Wang Xuan's mother. It's also my eldest brother's woman. She has great ambitions and wants to be in charge. But she is a foreigner and does not have such an opportunity. So her biggest wish is to be her son, Wang Xuan, the next head. And in the entire sect, she is one of the few people who can talk to her ancestors. It seems that she knows what Wang Xuan did last night. And she hopes to use the hand of her ancestor to get rid of his son's competitors. That's the seven people from yesterday. It's so vicious!" Wang Zhiyuan said solemnly.
"Senior, is this matter still difficult to do?" Lin Xuan asked.
"It's not that it's not easy, it's just that we don't have any evidence at all. Why should the Guardians believe it? You know, the woman was no ordinary person. Although there is no real power in the sect, it is very face-saving. Wang Zhiyuan said seriously.
Hearing Wang Zhiyuan's words, Lin Xuan proposed: "Senior, what Sanniang said just now is good. You can completely start with that guy called Guo Hao. Just let him confess. This matter is much easier to solve. I'll let Sanniang follow him for a few more days, as long as you catch his little tail, can't you clean him up?"
