The next day, the golden cloud royal capital.

At noon, at the back of the main hall of the Dark Cloud Palace, about fifty or sixty people were lying down, and there were about three hundred people standing.

These people were all interrogated by Si Yao and guarded by Gonggong Pei. Lying down are people whose hands and feet have been discarded, and who have been identified as spies. Standing are the people who have temporarily cleared the suspicion.

In the hall, after interrogating the last person, Si Yao stood up from his chair, stretched, yawned, and his face was full of exhaustion. Although he had already analyzed everyone, he had maintained a night's isolation, and the consumption was not insignificant.

And Luo Jingyao and Geng Guochen's faces were difficult to see.

They didn't expect that there were as many as fifty-six spies.

After interrogating Zou Yu last night, Si Yao interrogated three members of the Imperial King Junior in succession. One of the three was determined to be a spy. Among the remaining dozens of people who were identified as spies, seven of them might still have some value, and the others were all minions.

At this moment, Geng Guochen was kneeling on the ground, the dog who was scolded by Luo Jingyao was drenched in blood, his old face was hot, and his head was about to be buried in his crotch.

"Everyone said that the Dark Cloud Hall was a fierce beast under the lonely seat, and the civil and military officials talked about it. But what about now? Now this beast is biting all its own people!

How ironic!

Geng Guochen, what are you domesticating beasts for? It is still providing convenience to the enemy, so that this beast can one day swallow the lonely Jinyun Kingdom! ”

Geng Guochen couldn't say a word of defense. Don't look at what Luo Jingyao said is very serious, but if it continues to develop like before, it may not become a fact.

The enemy is strong and not terrible. The terrible thing is that the comrades who fight side by side with you don't know when they will give you a fatal knife.

Through Si Yao's interrogation last night, although there is no direct evidence, it can at least be inferred that almost a thousand dark cloud guards died under the layout of these spies. As for Jin Yunguo's important information, he didn't know how much he had been sent out, and there was no way to check it.

It can be said that if it weren't for Si Yao's purge, the ghost knows how much more they would have planted on these spies.

At this time, Si Yao spoke out and comforted: "Actually, the king doesn't need to be so angry, after all, the Dark Cloud Palace has only been established for sixteen years. During this period, the Dark Cloud Hall expanded its power in a big way, and it was normal for the enemy to take advantage of this to plant some spies. The Lord of the Geng Hall has been able to develop the Dark Cloud Hall to this point, and he has done a very good job. ”

Suddenly, Geng Guochen glanced up at Si Yao, his eyes full of gratitude and admiration.

Although Si Yao is very young, how could he not admire Si Yao's keen observation and superb intelligence? Even the strength that Si Yao showed yesterday was far less than this shocking him.

This also explains why some cultivators with high cultivation levels will be subdued by those who have a lower cultivation than him. After all, a wise man does not need to use a knife to kill, and a few movements of his upper and lower lips can make the difference between the life and death of thousands of people.

Luo Jingyao's mood was also better, after all, he had not put much effort into the Dark Cloud Palace. Although Geng Guochen didn't find these spies, he resolutely didn't find either. Si Yao's words undoubtedly gave him and Geng Guochen a step down.

Chatting with smart people is different, worry-free and enjoyable.

Sighing in his heart, Luo Jingyao opened his mouth and asked, "Deputy Hall Master, in your opinion, what should I do next." ”

Si Yao replied without thinking about it: "Now I can be sure of one thing, these spies are not only sent by Yufeng Country and other countries, I am afraid that there are many forces in the country.

The matter of interrogation will be handed over to the Lord of the Geng Palace. Wait a minute, I will give you a list, it is full of suspicious people who are not in the royal capital, you call them all back, and I will interrogate them one by one. Don't tell anyone else about this, so as not to leak the news. For the people outside, you can just make up an excuse to deal with it. ”

Geng Guochen nodded again and again, and agreed: "Okay, I know." ”

Luo Jingyao glared at him, "Now that you know, why don't you go and arrange a place for the deputy hall master." Didn't you see that the deputy hall master was tired? I wiped your ass for you this night, and I didn't look at it at all. ”

Geng Guochen smiled bitterly, and hurriedly bowed: "The minister retires." ”

After Geng Guochen left, Luo Jingyao thought for a moment and said, "Deputy Hall Master, after all, you have only read the archives of the members now, and there are still many important materials that you haven't read......

Luo Xuerou interrupted: "Father, there are only four of us here, don't be so serious, feel free." ”

"Okay." Luo Jingyao agreed with a smile, and said to Si Yao: "Then I will call you Xiao Si in the future, you can just call me Uncle Luo." ”

"Okay, Uncle Lo." Si Yao said with a smile.

After a pause, he added, "Uncle Lo, you're worried about something slipping through the net, right?" ”

"Hmm." Luo Jingyao nodded.

Si Yao had a confident smile on his face and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Wait a minute, I will ask Hall Master Geng to send all the information to my room, and in the next few days, I will analyze all the information. ”

Hearing this, Luo Jingyao was also relieved.

"That's the best, then this time will be hard for you."

"Lobo, that's what I'm supposed to do. However, I don't recommend catching all the spies. ”

Luo Jingyao's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Si Yao meant.

"How many people do you want to keep and deliberately spread false news?"

"Yes!" Si Yao nodded, his eyes flickering, "Even if I analyze all the information, it will be impossible to find out all the spies." Among the rest of the people, there must be many people who have been placed in the Golden Cloud Kingdom since they were children and have never shown their feet. Our wanton uprooting of the spies this time will definitely arouse the vigilance of these people. It's better to keep a few, not only will you mislead the other party, but you may also be able to catch bigger fish as a result. ”

Luo Jingyao made a decision directly, "This is a very good idea, so let's do it." ”

Then, he said, "During your time here, the Dark Cloud Hall will be handed over to you, and I will let Guo Chen cooperate with you." As long as it's your decision, you don't have to report it to me, just let it go. ”

Although he guessed that Luo Jingyao would say this, Si Yao couldn't help but be a little surprised when he really heard this. I admired Luo Jingyao's open-mindedness and decisiveness in my heart.

After all, the Dark Cloud Hall can be said to be the most important institution in the Golden Cloud Kingdom, and Luo Jingyao gave him the power in this way, which is not a risky thing.

He bowed and said seriously: "Thank you Uncle Lo for your trust, the kid will definitely live up to his expectations." ”

Luo Jingyao glanced at An Qingyan meaningfully, "It's all my own people, I'm very relieved of you." ”

Sensing Luo Jingyao's gaze, An Qingyan's face flushed, and in a blink of an eye, he returned to normal.

Si Yao was a little speechless, he felt as if everyone was keen to match him and An Qingyan.

"Then the kid will take his leave."

"Okay, you can go back and rest."

After Si Yao and An Qingyan saluted and left, Luo Jingyao sighed.

"Rou'er, where did you find such a demon?"

Luo Xuerou smiled and said, "I didn't look for it, it was Shen Yu who found him." ”

"This kid's eyes are pretty tricky." Luo Jingyao smiled. He had read Si Yao's information, and he also understood that Si Yao had been hiding in the Qiliu Sect before. But not long after Shen Yu arrived in Qiliu Sect, he saw through Si Yao's disguise. This eyesight is really worthy of the word insight.

Luo Xuerou held her cheeks in her hand and quipped: "Now do you believe what I said before?" ”

Luo Jingyao was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "Believe!" How not to believe it! Who would be willing to let go of this kind of talent? ”

Luo Xuerou smiled: "But you are really at ease with Si Yao, aren't you afraid that he will have different intentions?" ”

Luo Jingyao shook his head and smiled easily: "Have you forgotten what you said before?" You won't stay in Jinyun Country for long, Xiao Si is just a transition here. ”

"Then what if Uncle Geng ...... him"

"You can't help but underestimate Guochen too much, right? He must have seen this too, so he didn't worry that Xiao Si would take his power at all. Not only that, even if I don't say it, he will fully cooperate with Xiao Si. Take advantage of Xiao Si's time to completely consolidate the Dark Cloud Hall and further develop his power. ”

Luo Xuerou didn't say anything more, and suddenly remembered what Shen Yu had said in her mind: As long as Si Yao enters the Dark Cloud Palace, no matter what position he is, the power of the chief hall master will eventually be handed over to Si Yao.

Now it seems that Shen Yu has expected this step a long time ago.

However, thinking of Shen Yu, Luo Xuerou gradually became a little distracted. Although it has only been a few days, the two of them have never been separated for such a long time, and they miss it very much.

seemed to see what Luo Xuerou was thinking, Luo Jingyao was a little angry and a little helpless. Now he suddenly began to understand Ou Junhe's mood at the beginning.

He said out loud: "Xiao Si and Qingyan are ...... the two of them."

Luo Xuerou was stunned, and couldn't help but laugh: "When did you become so gossipy?" ”

"Look at what you said, Qingyan is my apprentice, can I not care as a master?"

"The two of them, they started to frown when they were in the Qiliu Sect......"

……

The Imperial Evil City.

A smile rose at the corner of Shen Yu's mouth and he put the communication stone back to his chest.

Just now, Si Yao and Luo Xuerou sent him a message respectively, informing him of everything that happened in the royal capital. So far, so good.

Thinking of Luo Xuerou, Shen Yu felt warm in his heart. I just want to solve the matter in front of me quickly and rush to the royal capital.

Then, he looked at Shang Qi, who was sitting on the ground.

"How does it feel?"

I saw Shang Qi clutching his chest at this time, panting heavily, and the clothes on his body were all tattered, and there were many dry blood stains.

He smiled far-fetchedly, "It's good, at least I can use the tyrant at will now." ”

"Presumably, you yourself have some understanding of the tyrant in your body before, so you can master it so quickly. However, although your strength, defense, recovery, and explosiveness are strong, your speed and reflexes are poor, and you will have to focus on these in the future. ”

"Okay."

"Have you memorized all the fighting techniques I taught you?"

"Remembered."

"Well, then you can go back first, and come back in the evening."
