Chapter 20: Identity is questioned again
After diving to the bottom of the sea, Niu Daren followed the secret passage to Shenliu Island, returned to his room, and Niu Daren took out the palm-sized thing just now, which turned out to be a flying camera.
Looking at the replay of the battle between him and Meng Zisheng, Niu Daren nodded with satisfaction, the Qiu family's sky-breaking marksmanship was far beyond his imagination, but it was a pity that the last move 'Breaking the Sky' was not used, and I don't know if he could kill Mencius with this move.
When he saw the end, Niu Daren smiled, at the beginning, Niu Daren thought that Mencius threw over a bomb-type magic weapon, some powerful bomb-type magic weapons, and even killed the cultivators of the Tribulation Period, at that time, Niu Daren was scared out of a cold sweat.
It wasn't until the metal ball exploded that he knew that it wasn't, inside the metal ball was a kind of Gu worm fed with high poison, and when it entered the cultivator's body, it should be able to cause a certain amount of damage, as for how much damage it could cause, Niu Daren didn't know, because when these Gu worms just entered the body, they were killed by him with the qi of life and death.
I have to say that Mencius is indeed a smart person, he did not take the opportunity to attack Niu Daren on a whim, but chose to flee immediately, otherwise, he may really have no chance.
Meng Zisheng and Liu Tang, both of their cultivation are in the middle stage of the combination, but the strength is worlds apart, last time he didn't use all his strength, it took less than two hours, and Liu Tang was seriously injured, but this time, the battle lasted for nearly five hours, and he also used a little magic arm, but in the end, Meng Zisheng still maintained a strong combat effectiveness, of course, Niu Daren firmly believed that if he turned into a bull demon, within five hours, he could definitely be killed.
The cultivation of the two people is the same, they are both core disciples of the Seven Great Sects, but the difference in strength is so big, which makes Niu Daren have to reflect on it, whether his behavior is too reckless, and he does not understand the strength of the opponent clearly, so he takes the liberty of taking action, if he really encounters a powerful opponent, he is in danger.
A month later, Niu Daren ended his 'retreat and practice' and left Shenliu Island, as soon as he returned to Daren's gynecology department, Niu Daren found that the atmosphere was different from the past, in his mansion, there were not weak cultivation masters everywhere, of course he understood why.
"Yuechai, why are there so many masters in the house all of a sudden, is something happening?" As soon as he entered the door, Niu Daren saw Mu Yuechai and Mrs. Meng chatting.
Mu Yuechai looked at him, and then said, "Not long after you left, City Lord Meng met an assassin, and it was also for the safety of Sister Zi Yan that City Lord Meng transferred a group of masters from Cloud City. ”
"Assassin, is the city lord of Meng okay?" Niu Daren looked nervous.
Mrs. Meng smiled and said, "Zisheng was only slightly injured, and now he has recovered, thank you Mr. for your concern." ”
"It's okay, it's okay. Speaking of this, Niu Daren suddenly fell silent, and then said: "This assassin is so bold, he actually dares to commit murder in the city of Allah, could it be that I offended someone?" Yueqi, let Lulu come back immediately, I am afraid that he will have some accidents." ”
"I haven't figured out the situation yet, just guess there, who told you that the assassin committed a murder in the mansion? City Lord Meng was attacked by the assassin on a small island in the East China Sea, not to mention, City Lord Meng's strength is so strong, he can't beat that assassin, if he really wants to kill you, can you still stand here well?" Mu Yuechai said angrily.
Hearing Mu Yuechai's words, Mrs. Meng couldn't help laughing, "Sir, don't worry, that assassin is indeed not here for you." ”
"Then why did he assassinate City Lord Meng? Doesn't he know the identity of City Lord Meng?" Niu Daren asked pretending to be very puzzled.
"It is precisely because he knows that he will make a move on Zisheng, presumably Mr. also knows about the destruction of the Qiu family by the seven major factions, and I don't have to hide it from Mr., in fact, that assassin is the survivor of the Qiu family. ”
"Ahh
Mrs. Meng nodded and said: "According to Zisheng, it should be that person, but I don't like to call them by remnants, the Seven Great Sects destroyed the Qiu family, and the Qiu family is now coming back for revenge, there is nothing wrong with that." If I had known about this earlier, I would definitely not have let Zisheng participate, seeing that the battle between immortals and demons is imminent, no matter what the reason, the Seven Great Sects should not do that, not to mention, so far, those high-level leaders have not given a reasonable explanation, because of this, I don't know how many people have left the Seven Great Factions, which is really chilling. ”
Mrs. Meng's statement coincides with Shen Ruobing, Niu Daren is really a little confused, destroying the Qiu family is not a trivial matter, it is impossible to have no reason, and listening to Mrs. Meng's tone, she should really not know, what is the reason why the high-level of the Seven Great Sects would rather endure the betrayal of their disciples than reveal a little?
As for Liu Tang's reason, it has already been vetoed by Niu Daren, the Qiu family has owned the secret key of the Twelve Star Xuangong for more than 100,000 years, if the Seven Great Sects are really for it, they will not wait until that time to do it.
What the reason is, Niu Daren really can't figure it out, but he doesn't need to think about it, no matter what the reason is, there will be a day when it will come to light.
"Is City Lord Meng still in the mansion? I'll go see him. ”
"After arranging everything, City Lord Meng will return to Cloud City. Mu Yuechai said.
Niu Daren nodded, "Since the assassin has arrived with us, please try not to go out of Mrs. Meng, if you let that assassin take advantage of the loophole and hurt Madame, I can't explain to City Lord Meng." ”
"Sir, don't worry, the assassin promised Zisheng himself, saying that he would not harm us, whether you believe it or not, but I believe it. ”
Looking at Mrs. Meng, Niu Daren was a little stunned, he didn't know why this woman believed the words of an enemy, and seemed to still believe it.
"I'm just worried that the Assassin will be blinded by hatred and will be detrimental to Madame, so it's better to be careful. Madame, please hold on to me and I'll examine you. ”
Just when Niu Daren was examining Mrs. Meng's body, in the conference room of Cloud City, almost all the high-level leaders of the Seven Great Sects gathered.
Except for Lei and a few others, everyone leaned back in their chairs and leaned sideways to look at the huge screen fixed on the wall, which showed the battle scene between Niu Daren and Mencius.
This image is not recorded, but extracted from Mencius's memory, the memory function of the brain is far more powerful than we imagined, and the details presented are even more detailed than the video in Niu Daren's hand.
According to Mencius's description, this person's cultivation was not as high as they imagined, in fact, he was only in the early stage of distraction, due to the change of appearance and confusion of soul aura, even if he was standing in front of him at the moment, Mencius had no way to recognize him.
These people have watched the image several times, but unfortunately, they have not found any valuable clues until now, the only thing that can be determined is that this person's sky-breaking marksmanship is very pure, and without hundreds of years of kung fu, it will not reach this level.
"Stop!" When Niu Daren used the move of 'Killing Heaven and Reverse Dao', the Nine Sword Venerable suddenly shouted, "Adjust the image to the beginning." ”
Hearing the words of the Nine Swords Venerable, someone immediately adjusted the image to the starting position, which was a picture of Niu Daren and Mencius having a conversation.
"What's wrong?" Lei looked at the Nine Swords Venerable suspiciously.
The Nine Swords Venerable pointed to the picture and said, "Old Lei, look at this person, although he is wearing a strong suit, his sleeves can still swing slightly with the wind, and obviously there is still a lot of space in the sleeves. ”
"What's wrong with that?"
"Cut the screen back to where it was. When the picture switched back, the Nine Swords Venerable continued: "If you look at his arms again, the sleeves have been broken, even if the Yuan Force bursts out, the muscles will be enlarged to a certain extent, but it is not to the point of breaking the sleeves, which means that his arms are much thicker than at the beginning. ”
After looking at the picture carefully, it was really the same as what the Nine Swords Venerable said, "It is impossible for a person's arm to become so thick for no reason, does he have a unicorn arm? ”
After receiving the order, the video of the game between Xiao Meng and Niu Daren was immediately called up, and looking at the battle screen of the two, Lei never spoke.
Others don't understand, why do you want to watch this game, although Xiao Meng has a unicorn arm and his strength is not weak, but his cultivation is only in the late stage of out-of-body, how can he be the assassin who assassinated Mencius?
Until the video was all played, Lei didn't speak, but except for the Nine Swords Venerable, no one dared to ask, so he could only wait for him to speak.
After a long time, Lei finally spoke: "Zisheng, when you were in the Daren Gynecology Department, did you see Niu Daren have close contacts with the cultivation masters in the early stage of distraction, or even above?"
"This?"
Seeing that Mencius was a little hesitant, Lei said angrily: "What do you say directly?" ”
"Don't dare to hide it from the Great Elder, the people who came into contact with Niu Daren, except for Mu Yuechai and a few people who were drunk and nameless, were almost all masters above the merger period, not people of this level, and few of them could take out a million top-grade spirit stones. Mencius had no choice but to answer truthfully.
"Old Lei, do you suspect that this matter has something to do with Niu Daren?" the Nine Swords Venerable looked at Lei and asked.
Lei nodded and said: "The arms of this Qiu family survivor may be Qilin arms, but they may not be them, but except for Niu Daren, I have never seen anyone use this kind of combat skill so far, and I even suspect that the assassin is Niu Daren, he should have this strength." ”
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Hearing Lei's words, the Nine Swords Venerable waved his hand and said.
"Why are you so sure?"
"This person's cultivation and combat skills can indeed correspond to Niu Daren, but have you ever thought that if Niu Daren didn't transform and had such a strong strength, Zisheng might have escaped? Don't you say, he deliberately asked Zisheng to come back and report to us. And it's not been a year or two since Zisheng and Zi Yan went to Daren's gynecology department, why didn't Niu Daren start earlier? He also carefully conditioned Zi Yan's body and helped her get pregnant, when have you ever seen such a kind enemy?"
The Nine Swords Venerable's analysis was indeed very reasonable, and Lei could hardly find any reason to refute it, but his intuition told him that this Niu Daren was quite suspicious.
"Dongting, I know that you and Niu Daren have walked closest, in the future, you can have more snacks to see if there are any distraction period cultivators who have close contact with him, and if there are anyone with suspicious behaviors, report to me immediately. ”
Ao Dongting is now with Niu Daren, it can be said that he is like brothers, how can he be willing to do such a thing to Niu Daren, but this is the order of the Great Elder, he does not dare to disobey, he can only agree.
After Ao Dongting agreed, Lei said: "Don't do it too deliberately, so as not to make him suspicious, and you don't put all your energy on the distraction period cultivator, maybe this is just a smoke bomb thrown by the survivor of the Qiu family, after you go back, you all tell the doorman, try not to act alone, okay, let's disperse." ”
After everyone else left, the Nine Swords Venerable leaned back in his chair weakly and looked at the ceiling, "Old Lei, sometimes I wonder if we did too much back then. ”
"Hey!" Ray didn't speak, just let out a long sigh.
