Chapter 55: Conflict Breaks Out

Zhou Hao looked at Heilong County City Advocacy Tianyu, his face was a little cloudy, and through Li Xinlan's introduction, he knew that this incident would be turned into a small matter, so as to implement the sect master's order and weaken the power of the family elders.

In addition, he wore a mask when he fought in Fang City, most people probably didn't know his true identity very well, and Xue Bai was his subordinate to the Agni Flame Academy, and the helmsman of the Agni Courtyard was his master Agni Zhenren.

Although I don't know the attitude of the Agni Zhenren, but today, Zhou Hao didn't see the figure of the Agni Zhenren, and he actually had a trace of clarity in his heart, so Xue Bai had no chance to tell the truth, and he had missed the city lord of Black Dragon County.

The reason why the city lord of Black Dragon County was excluded was that in addition to the fact that he did not carry the white jade long sword when he did it, the Black Dragon County City claimed that Tianyu was an official of the Black Dragon Kingdom, and according to the laws of the Black Dragon Kingdom, officials were not allowed to participate in the internal affairs of the sect.

After Heilong County City advocated Tianyu came to the main hall, he saluted slightly, and then said to Li Xiang: "Elder Li, after receiving the news from home, the city lord has come to testify. ”

Li Xiang smiled slightly and said, "City Lord Zhang has a heart, I bothered City Lord Zhang today to confirm one thing, that is, whether Zhou Hao was the murderer of Elder Zhao. ”

Zhang Tianyu glanced at Zhou Hao, and then explained: "I don't know who poisoned Elder Zhao, but Zhou Hao has a big problem, even if he is not the murderer, he is definitely inseparable from the murderer." ”

A smile rose on the corner of Li Xiang's mouth and said, "You mean, there is another secret behind this?"

Zhang Tianyu nodded affirmatively: "That's right, when the late friend Wang family master came to my mansion to borrow troops, he said one thing, that is, there was a demon resurrection in the ancient tomb, and the two of them escaped, but Zhou Hao was entangled by the devil. ”

"Later, Zhou Hao's temperament changed greatly after returning from the ancient tomb, killing people without blinking, my two friends and his family were poisoned one after another, I suspect that Zhou Hao has either been taken away by the devil, he is a demon demon in front of him, or he has an affair with a demon demon, otherwise the fierce and violent demon demon will let him go?"

Zhou Hao's eyes were slightly downcast, and his fists couldn't help clenching, but he didn't rush to explain, and it was easy to cause others to be alert when explaining at this moment.

As soon as Zhang Tianyu said this, the entire hall was in an uproar, in the hearts of all the monks, the Demon Dao has always been a taboo, especially in the Black Dragon Country, the Demon Dao monks have a large number of rewards from the Qi cultivation period to the Yuan Infant Period.

Not only that, the Black Dragon Kingdom also issued a death order to all the sect monks in the territory, whoever finds the traces of the demon monk must report it, otherwise he will be punished for the crime of collaborating with the enemy, not to mention, there is a direct relationship with the demon.

Everyone in the hall, including Chen Tianyu, frowned, and the eyes of the elders kept looking at Zhou Hao, but Zhou Hao did not show his flaws, but chose not to speak, as if he didn't care much about everything.

Of course, Li Xiang would not let Zhou Hao go like this, and said loudly: "I have this intention, what City Lord Zhang said is very valuable, this Zhou Hao has been mediocre in my sect, and his strength has skyrocketed when he meets that demon, it is too strange, even if he cultivates in the best cave heaven blessed land in the sect, I am afraid he will not be able to reach this level." ”

At this time, Li Xinlan, who was standing beside Zhou Hao, spoke: "City Lord Zhang and Elder Li are too arbitrary, if it is really according to what you say, then I, Li Xinlan, must also be a demon demon, right?"

As soon as Li Xinlan's words came out, it immediately caused a lot of discussion among the people present, after such a reminder, Zhang Tianyu's words were indeed full of loopholes, but no one came out to speak up, because today's events are indeed unusual, the elder's death was discussed at a meeting to discuss whether it was false, and it was true to force Chen Tianyu to force the palace.

Although they are said to be elders, they are actually completely inadequate compared to the real sect core, Zhao Tianqiu's death is a fuse, and the real purpose is for the struggle for power in the sect.

Li Xiang looked at Li Xinlan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "My nephew's surname is Li, and I am also surnamed Li, according to the genealogy, you and I should be the heirs of the former Zhennan King Changsheng Emperor, aren't we?"

Li Xinlan didn't know what medicine was sold in Li Xiang's gourd, but the matter of the Immortal Emperor was indeed not wrong, the former Sword Emperor was the Emperor of the Eight Desolations and the Four Kings, and the Zhennan King Immortal Emperor was the ancestor of all the surnames Li, but that was also a long time ago.

"The Great Elder said that Xinlan is considered to be a high climber, but the Immortal Ancestor is the Immortal Ancestor, I am me, today's matter is not the matter of my family, but a matter of injustice, my junior brother is true of cultivating the way of the sword, and it is true that I have seen the demon Dao demon, so it is too one-sided to conclude it!"

After Li Xiang heard this, he was not angry, and said with a smile: "I know that it is indeed far-fetched to say this, but I want to say that although you have entered my Tianlan Sect, you have a special identity, I only hope that you will be less involved in the affairs of the sect in the future, and the people behind you are not very good!"

Li Xinlan frowned, her fists couldn't help clenching, but Zhou Hao next to her raised her eyebrows, glanced at the people around her, and an idea came into mind as the times require: "I knew that Senior Sister was special earlier, but I didn't expect Senior Sister to have another identity, but I don't know what it is?"

Chen Tianyu saw that the situation on the field was gradually getting out of control, and immediately interrupted Li Xiang's questioning: "The Great Elder is cautious, don't mention the matter of the master and nephew again. ”

A smile rose on the corner of Li Xiang's mouth, and he looked at Zhou Hao again: "How is it, is what City Lord Zhang said correct?"

Zhou Hao saw that the spearhead was pointed at him again, and he didn't panic, and explained: "That's right, what City Lord Zhang said is not bad at all, I did meet a demon in the ancient tomb when I went home, and I also started a big battle with that demon, but the demon was greatly damaged because of the long-term suppression, and I defeated and fled." ”

"As for the matter of killing the Wang and Li families, they provoked me first, and the murderers will always kill them, and if they dare to destroy my family, they will be ready to be destroyed, and Elder Li will ask me for this matter, and he is inevitably suspected of helping outsiders. ”

Li Xiangpi looked at Zhou Hao with a smile, but the latter's counterattack was still sharp enough, which of the people present had never seen blood, not to mention that the opponent wanted to destroy his clan first, and it was understandable to destroy the opponent, so it would be too far-fetched to say that the other party was the devil.

Although many elders did not speak up, they all looked at Li Xiang with scrutinizing eyes, and if Li Xiang was entangled in this matter, it was very likely to offend everyone.

Li Xiang knew this very well, so he immediately changed the topic: "What City Lord Zhang said needs to be investigated, but Zhou Hao, how do you explain where the sword path you cultivated came from, Elder Sword Valley is here, is it my Tianlan Sect Fa at a glance." ”

"Besides, if your sword path method is not from my Tianlan Sect, then where did you get it? Or rather, did you get it from the Tomb Demon?"

Li Xiang's words completely blocked Zhou Hao's way, if Zhou Hao couldn't say it, he would definitely be considered to have gotten it from the Tomb Demon, if he said it, it was very likely to expose the cultivation method, this is the core of the monk, even if it is for his biological parents, he will keep a hand.

Zhou Hao knew the viciousness in Li Xiang's words, and smiled: "The Great Elder's words are wrong, everyone has their own fate, this sword path is my chance, and it has nothing to do with the sect, but this alone can't determine my guilt for colluding with the demon Dao demons, right?"

Li Xiang knew that Zhang Tianyu would inevitably serve the public when he issued a certificate, but his main purpose was not to embarrass Zhou Hao, but to force Gong Chen Tianyu to become a great elder, not to die here.

Li Xiang coughed and nodded: "Okay, Zhou Hao's matter will be left aside for the time being, but we must thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the murderer, and give Elder Zhao a fair and give an explanation to the disciples of the sect, I suggest that the soul search be thoroughly investigated by Yu Zitong, since the murderer is the martial artist of the Xianghe Martial Arts Pavilion, the director of the Xianghe Martial Arts Pavilion, Yu Zitong, will inevitably shield the murderer." ”

As soon as Li Xiang said this, everyone's faces changed greatly, especially Yu Zitongqiao's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but tremble, soul searching is a spell that everyone resists.

Not only will the caster lose his energy due to soul searching, but the person who is soul searched is likely to be scattered, which is extremely vicious and rarely mentioned.

Zhou Hao clenched his fists and stared at Li Xiang deadly.

Chen Tianyu frowned, and said loudly: "Great Elder, this is too serious, the evil art of soul searching has always been a taboo for my righteous path cultivators, not to mention that this is just a suspicion to search people's souls, and our Tianlan Sect has no light on its face." ”

Of course, Li Xiang wouldn't expose it so easily, and continued: "Of course I know, so for the sake of the reputation of the entire sect, I decided to personally conduct a soul search, in this way, the wicked person is the only one doing it, or is it that the sect master wants to shield the murderer so disregarding Elder Zhao's death?"

As soon as Li Xiang's words fell, the rest of the elders sitting on the main seat got up and stood behind him, except for the two men with swords on their backs who did not get up, there were actually more than twenty people who got up and stood behind Li Xiang.

Chen Tianyu's face changed slightly, and he looked at the two dozen people silently.

Zhou Hao looked at the situation on the field, and instantly understood something: "I see, no wonder Zhao Tianqiu only came that day, and the other elders all appeared, I thought that the other elders would have something to do and couldn't leave, but now that Zhao Tianqiu has been used as a chess piece, it is really pitiful." ”

Thinking of this, Zhou Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a dignified Jindan period elder is just a pawn of one person in the end, but what people didn't expect was that it would be Zhou Hao who would complete it.

Seeing that Chen Tianyu did not speak, Li Xiang took advantage of the victory and said: "Since the sect master has no opinion, then we have the courage to speak up, I hope that the sect master can thoroughly investigate the death of Elder Zhao, not only that, in order to prevent the same thing from happening, we hope that the elders can be vigilant and beware of the villain's success." ”

"Finally, in order to prevent anyone from shielding, our Council of Elders will oversee the whole process, also for the sake of fairness and justice. ”

Zhou Hao in the main hall sneered, and secretly said that this Li Xiang is really shameless, but he is also lamenting his methods, sacrificing a Jindan elder is just to find a way to seize power from the sect master.

Once it is really as Li Xiang said, on the surface, it seems that there is no flaw, and even has a righteous heart, but in fact, it contains evil intentions, and deliberately does not say the deadline, if you can't find this elder member for a day, all the elders of the entire sect will be monitored, and then the sect master will inevitably be set aside after a long time.

However, Zhou Hao is safe at the moment, because, as long as Zhou Hao does not admit that he is the murderer, then Li Xiang and they will not be able to find the murderer for a day, as for Zhang Tianyu's role, it is actually just to increase the complexity.

Even if he can't do it today, he can fall into injustice, and Zhou Hao is a very favorite apprentice of Elder Agni, he will never sit idly by when Zhou Hao is in danger, and it will be easy to operate at that time.

Elder Agni is a rare powerhouse in the Council of Elders, and he is also one of the few elders who are loyal to Chen Tianyu, if he overthrows Elder Agni, then the Council of Elders will basically fall under Li Xiang's control, and the benefits will be maximized whether it succeeds or not.

After thinking of this, a smile rose on the corner of Zhou Hao's mouth, and after Li Xinlan's point and Li Xiang's on-site performance, he basically figured out the situation now.

Zhou Hao looked at Li Xiang's back, and his face became colder and colder: "Li Xiang, since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust." ”

Thinking of this, Zhou Hao took a step forward and said to everyone: "Sect Master, elders, don't fight anymore, since Elder Li thinks that my strength is problematic, then I am willing to give it a try to prove my innocence." ”

Li Xiang was about to continue to exert pressure, but after hearing Zhou Hao's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little annoyed, and said fiercely: "Zhou Hao, don't you know that the elder should not interrupt when he speaks?"

Zhou Hao said with a smile: "Of course I know, but this matter is very important, and I also want to prove my innocence, but there is a huge gap between me and Elder Jindan, I only accept three moves, if there is no problem within the three moves, please also ask Elder Mingjian." ”

Li Xiang snorted and said: "Since you say so, I can't refute it, I'm a very affectionate person, Elder Zhao Tianqiu is a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan, so let the elders of the early stage of Jindan fight against you, three moves, if you don't show abnormality, it means that you are innocent, and vice versa." ”

Zhou Hao sneered, Li Xiang's words were really vicious, only he, Zhou Hao, dared to resist, and the estimated amount he faced was to be framed, if he didn't dare to resist, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.

Li Xiang came up with this trick to make Zhou Hao retreat, but what he didn't expect was that Zhou Hao actually agreed, and he couldn't help but wonder for a while, didn't the latter know the strong strength of the Jindan period?

Chen Tianyu was embarrassed at this moment, but as the head of a sect, he couldn't think of any good way to refute Li Xiang's conspiracy at this moment.

Li Xinlan looked at Zhou Hao in shock, and hurriedly gave her a look, but unfortunately, the latter seemed to turn a deaf ear, which made her angry.

Li Xiang glanced at Zhou Hao coldly, and swept to the other elders: "Whoever of you will test it, just point it out!"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one dares to step forward, although Li Xiang in front of him is menacing, but Chen Tianyu does not show decline, they don't want to offend Chen Tianyu.
