Chapter 275: I'll Lie to You Tomorrow
Xuantian Sect Punishment Hall.
Xi Ming sat in the circle, perhaps knowing that it was useless to resist, he closed his eyes tightly, but it was extremely quiet, until the two figures stepped into this space, he slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing that it was Hongge and Chenyue who came in, his eyebrows furrowed, and he immediately sneered, "What? Are you here to see my jokes? β
Hongge and Chenyue glanced at each other, and Chenyue stepped forward and said, "Uncle Shi, I came here today to ask you something, and I also asked Uncle Shi to tell me the truth." β
"Humph!" Xi Ming snorted coldly and turned his head away, obviously unwilling to cooperate.
Chen Yue frowned, but still asked, "Uncle Shi, before Uncle Xiguang left the sect, you were the last person to see him, and the disciple just wanted to know, where did Uncle Shi go?" β
Xi Ming was stunned, and a trace of strange emotion quickly flashed in his eyes, but he quickly reined in again, and still said with a mocking face, "Will you believe what I say?" What if I told you that he was already dead? β
"No!" Chen Yue denied this answer without thinking about it, and said firmly, "Uncle Chang Lan promised Uncle Chang Lan that he would definitely come back, and he would not fall." "Uncle Xiguang may deceive others, but he has promised Uncle Chang Lan about it, and he has never broken his promise.
"Cut, naΓ―ve!" Xi Ming's tone became more and more mocking, "He has already entered his body with evil qi, and he has absorbed so much evil qi in his body, he lost his mind for a while, and now that so many years have passed, how can he still survive." β
Chenyue tightened her hand on her side, still stubbornly asking, "Please also ask Uncle Shi to tell Uncle Zhixi Guang where he is." β
"I didn't say I didn't know, but even if I did, why should I tell you two traitors!"
"......" Chenyue was silent for a while, her always gentle eyes sank, and she continued after a while, "Since Uncle Shi is unwilling to say it, then I will ask every day in the future, and one day Uncle Shi will be willing to say it." β
"You threaten me?" Xi Ming was extremely angry and glared at him, but he suppressed his anger and said angrily, "Hmph, do you love it!" β
Seeing that the other party was determined not to say anything, Chen Yue did not continue to ask, took Hongge's hand and turned around to leave.
However, Hongge didn't move, gave Uncle Xiao a look, turned his head and glanced at Xi Ming up and down, and said, "Does the head really think that Uncle Xiao and I are traitors to Xuantian Sect?" β
Xi Ming glared at her straight, and said with a violent expression, "You rebelled against the rebellion and sought to seize the position of the head of the family, aren't you still considered a traitor?" β
"But now all this, aren't you willing to let it go?" Hongge directly pierced.
"What?!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Xi Ming, but even the little uncle was stunned.
After a while, Ximing seemed to have been poked at the pain point, and yelled more and more irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about? β
"Isn't it?" Hongge continued, "If you really think that we are so guilty, why did you reveal the location of the junior uncle to me and lead me to save him when the Heavenly Machine Pavilion planned to let the Immortal Pagoda change hands? β
"......" Xi Ming choked suddenly.
At the beginning, Uncle Xiao was trapped in the forbidden land in the back mountain, even if she noticed that something was wrong, she would not be able to find anyone for a while. It was at this time that Xi Ming suddenly appeared and said that sentence, which made her determine the location of the little uncle.
Is that really just an unintentional statement? Hongge didn't think that after all, Xi Ming had been the head of the house for so many years, and with his scheming methods, it was impossible to reveal such a big flaw in his words, as if it was ...... Deliberately told her the same.
Moreover, at that time, the formation of Tianji Pavilion had been completed, and most of Uncle Xiao's cultivation had been dispersed, if he continued to stay in that magic circle, not only his cultivation, but also his death.
Zexian Tower's so-called Mandate of Heaven, at the beginning, Xi Ming and Xi Chen both believed what Tianji Pavilion said, Xi Ming would come to remind her that there was only one possibility, that is, he found out that Uncle Xiao was in danger of his life halfway through, and he didn't want to see him really fall, so he reminded Hongge and asked her to save people.
Looking back now, whether it was when she was saving people in the forbidden land, or on the way she left the sect with her little uncle, Xi Ming didn't come out to pursue them, and even the mountain protection array was opened so timely, it happened to be closed after they left the sect.
"If the head of the sect really hates us so much for taking your position as the head of the sect as he said, then why are you willing to be captured, instead of betraying the sect and joining the Tianji Pavilion like Xichen?" Hongge asked again.
On the day of the uprising with all the disciples, Xi Ming was indeed difficult to ride a tiger and had to hand over the seal of the master, but he could clearly resist, and he could even walk away directly, but he didn't, and he was honestly imprisoned in the Punishment Hall.
These all prove that Xi Ming is actually different from the one who holds the Sword Peak, although he is selfish and authoritarian, he still has a bottom line.
"Nonsense!" Xi Ming's face suddenly changed and changed, and he roared angrily, "Don't confuse the deity with traitors like you, I am the head of the Xuantian Sect, even if I die, I will die in the sect, what is the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, how can I go for it to betray the sect, you are humiliating me!" β
"Oh? Are you sure? Hongge raised his eyebrows and immediately asked while he was jumping to his feet, "You think so much about the sect, where is Xiguang?" β
"Senior Brother Xiguang is ......" He was about to blurt out, but he stopped suddenly, and coughed several times because he braked too quickly.
Red Song: "......"
Morning Moon: "......"
Oh~
The case was solved, and he really knew.
"You're lying to me?!" Xi Ming reacted and glared at Hongge angrily, "I know what? Thought I'd say that? Dream! I won't tell you if I die. β
"That's it......" Hongge tilted his head, not in a hurry at all, and spread his hands and said, "Okay, then I'll cheat you again tomorrow, anyway, there will always be a trick." β
"You, you ......" Xi Ming's hands trembled with anger, but he couldn't find any words to refute.
"Alas......" Hongge sighed, and said with a look of concern for him, "Master, I know that you have your own pride, and I don't think you are worse than Xiguang Master, but think about it, what can you do if you keep this secret?" Now that you are no longer in charge, even if Uncle Xiguang comes back, it won't affect you anything? β
Xi Ming raised his head and glared at her, "Hmph, what do you two shameless juniors know, how could the deity ever care about this?" "Why doesn't he want his brother to come back.
"Okay." Hongge immediately changed his words, "Even if it's not for the position of the head of the house, think about the three of you senior brothers." I heard Shizun say that the former head of this sect was also a well-known figure in the immortal cultivation world back then, and he only accepted you three senior brothers in total, right? β
