Chapter 337: Crime and Punishment

Venerable Qingming looked at Venerable Qinghu with a straight face, but there was a bit of playfulness and smugness in his eyes, no matter how cunning he was, in front of Venerable Qinghu, a person he had always been jealous and hated, he still showed a bit of true emotions.

"A junior of the Pei family, Pei Ju asked your disciple for a few tricks. But I don't want your disciple to be so fierce and brutal, and directly beat people to death!" Twisting the facts lightly, Venerable Qingming continued: "Hey, it's all my fault, I originally thought that as a disciple of your Venerable Qinghu, I should be a little measured, and compete with the same sect, naturally it will be to the point." But I don't want to!"

"If I had known that I had watched more before, I would have been able to avoid such a tragedy. It's too late to regret it now!" said Qing Ming with a long sigh. If you just listen to his voice and tone, you will really think that he is feeling guilty. At least many of the barbarian witch disciples who followed him showed a somewhat relieved look on their faces. The disciples who were still wondering why Venerable Qingming didn't stop the tragedy before, the confusion on their faces was also resolved. Then he looked at Zhang Baijian with resentful eyes.

Among this group of young people, Pei Ju is not particularly influential and appealing. However, the Pei family has a very high status in the barbarian witch tribe, and the descendants of the Pei family are dead, whether these people are true or not, they should also show a little grief and indignation.

And Zhang Baijian just stood there coldly, not defending, and even more disdainful of defending.

Fact?

The current situation does not require facts at all. No one wants to believe that an elder of a witch god powerhouse of the Barbarian Witch tribe would assassinate a disciple who is not at the level of a god, just to trap another disciple of the god.

And Venerable Qinghu quickly glanced at Pei Ju's corpse, and suddenly said: "Burning God Finger, within three breaths, the potential of a person's whole body is stimulated." After three breaths, the soul consciousness is worn out and dies. Good means, it's really my good brother!"

Saying that, Venerable Qinghu looked at Venerable Qingming with cold eyes.

The self-reproach and sadness on Venerable Qingming's face condensed slightly: "Venerable Qinghu, what are you talking about? Could it be that you are going to frame me for the sake of your disciple, framing a witch god of the Barbarian Witch Tribe. Did you frame your brother?"

When Venerable Qingming spoke, there was not only anger in his tone, but also a bit of pain, as if he was betrayed by his relatives and friends.

"Venerable Qinghu, if you do this, I, Qingming, am ashamed to be with you, and I disdain to be your senior brother. You are not worthy of being the master of Qinghu Peak!" When he said the last sentence, Venerable Qingming almost gritted his teeth, maybe this sentence was his true heart.

"Then you dare to swear to Heavenly Dao that Pei Ju did not die at your hands. Or because of Zhang Baijian and died?" Venerable Qinghu directly said a word, blocking Venerable Qingming's next gushing.

He calculated in every way, but he was careless.

"Ridiculous! How could a powerful witch god of my dignified barbarian witch tribe swear to Heaven for such a thing. Venerable Qingming quickly straightened his face and flatly rejected Venerable Qingming's proposal.

And those disciples who were originally standing behind Venerable Qingming had a sudden look on their faces. Again, a little confusion welled up. But no one spoke, but looked at the scene in front of them. Thoughtfully.

To be able to become a god at a young age, no one is a fool. Obviously, Pei Ju's death has a lot to say. It is not only about the open and secret battle between the two witch gods, but there may also be a deeper competition hidden behind it. It's no longer something they can meddle in.

At this moment, Zhang Baijian raised his three fingers and said, "The way of heaven is above, and I, Zhang Baijian, have no intention of killing Pei Ju today." His death had nothing to do with me. If there is a lie, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and the body will die. ”

As soon as the oath came out, a pressure suddenly came, and if it was a shallow cultivation, it might not be noticed. On the contrary, the more advanced the cultivation. The more you can perceive it.

This pressure flashed away on the beach, and then quietly dissipated.

Nothing happened in this heaven and earth, there was no heavenly punishment, and naturally Pei Ju's death had nothing to do with Zhang Baijian. No one dared to doubt the judgment of the Heavenly Dao, and no one would believe that someone could hide the investigation of the Heavenly Dao. As long as people do not transcend this world, they will be governed by the way of heaven, even the Taiyi God, who is high above and shines through the ages.

The answer is obvious.

It was Venerable Qingming who assassinated Pei Ju.

This is the real reason, but no one has the courage to say it. On the contrary, the crowd subconsciously took a few steps back.

Venerable Qingming looked at Zhang Baijian, listened to Zhang Baijian swear to the Heavenly Dao, and gritted his teeth fiercely: "This is nothing!"

"What! Do you dare to question the Heavenly Dao?" said Venerable Qinghu with a sneer.

Venerable Qingming choked with difficulty, as if he had swallowed a big pebble raw.

Venerable Qingming is a witch god, and his strength is strong, and he can also dominate one side in the entire land of five Tibets, eight desolations and nine seas. But he would never dare to say half a bad word about the Heavenly Dao, and the more powerful he was, the more he would not dare. Because the stronger the person, the more he is watched by the Heavenly Dao.

"No matter how Pei Ju died, this matter can't be just settled, Pei Ju is a member of the Pei family, and the result is naturally determined by the people of the Pei family. Let's go back to the Barbarian Witch Tribe and make a decision!" At this time, Venerable Qingming, who was forced to a dead end, had to give in for the time being.

Venerable Qinghu snorted coldly, and did not object. And Zhang Baijian didn't speak, his face was calm, so that people couldn't see what he was thinking at the moment.

Next, Venerable Qingming quickly assigned the division of the sea area, and then followed Venerable Qinghu, Zhang Baijian and one hundred and eighty-eight Yang Soul disciples out of the ancient tree forest and got on the Penglai Flying Boat.

In order for the Pei family to make a decision, Venerable Qingming himself naturally had to go with him.

In the Penglai flying boat, Zhang Baijian was sitting alone on the bed in a room, waiting for someone.

Knock knock!

There was a soft knock on the door.

The door wasn't closed, so I didn't have to knock. If you knock on the door, you can only say two things. Either that, or the person who came was extremely polite. Either that, the person who came felt guilty and didn't want to offend the people in the room anymore.

It was Venerable Qinghu who came in, and he didn't look like a polite person. So he can only feel guilty.

"You've been watching from the sidelines!" Zhang Baijian didn't ask, but said it with certainty. Therefore, Venerable Qinghu could only nod.

"Why?" Zhang Baijian looked at Venerable Qinghu.

Venerable Qinghu took out the gourd on his waist, took a big sip of wine, and said, "Qingming's methods, I have seen them at a glance from the beginning. Pei Ju's death was also expected by me. And!" Glancing at Zhang Baijian, Venerable Qinghu continued: "And even if you swear to the Heavenly Dao, it will only be you who will kill Pei Ju, not him!"

Who 'he' is, of course, no longer needs to be explained. But Zhang Baijian asked, "Why?"

There was some coldness in this question.

Venerable Qinghu said, "You killed nearly two hundred Troll Guard reserves, and you also killed Pei Xia and Kou Fan, as well as the five brothers of the Tie family. A lot of people want you to die!"

Zhang Baijian showed a hint of sarcasm on his face: "This is not a reason!"

Venerable Qinghu nodded: "This is indeed not a reason! No matter who wants to kill you, for the sake of me and the face of the Ninth Thunder God, I will weigh a few points." ”

"What are you planning?" asked Zhang Baijian.

Venerable Qinghu showed a trace of sadness on his face, and then said with a long sigh: "Twenty-two years ago, the patriarch of the Luman Wushui Clan was assassinated in Longxiao Valley, and the murderer and the mastermind behind it have not yet been found. And this patriarch has been very kind to me. ”

"What kind of place is Longxiao Valley?" asked Zhang Baijian.

Venerable Qinghu sighed: "You are indeed very shrewd! Longxiao Valley is the prison of the Barbarian Witch Tribe, and it is a place specially used to hold criminal disciples. At the same time, this is not all without benefits to you, you are not a yang soul yet, and you are not sure what you want to do. This is not an opportunity. ”

"Why did the patriarch of the Barbarian Witch Water Clan go to Longxiao Valley?" Zhang Baijian then asked.

Venerable Qinghu's eyes flickered a few times and then said, "She's here to visit someone!"

"Who?" asked Zhang Baijian step by step.

Venerable Qinghu suddenly said in a deep voice, "You don't need to know this. "His voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely powerful. Zhang Baijian knew that no matter how much he asked, he would not tell himself. Moreover, Venerable Qinghu's position also seems to be very problematic, and there must be some special relationship between him and the Barbarian Witch Water Department. And this relationship is very likely to affect Zhang Baijian's final ending.

"Do you want me to go to Longxiao Valley and help you find out the truth about the past?" asked Zhang Baijian.

Venerable Qinghu said, "Yes! Longxiao Valley is the only place where it is still possible to find traces of the past. Over the years, I have gone to Longxiao Valley more than once, openly and secretly, but there are internal ghosts in Qinghu Peak, and as long as I move, I can't find any traces in Longxiao Valley. ”

Zhang Baijian began to think quickly.

Venerable Qinghu and the patriarch of the Barbarian Witch Water Tribe, must have a great friendship. Otherwise, he would never have spent so much effort for the patriarch and insisted on it for twenty-two years. And if this matter is not clarified, Venerable Qinghu will feel guilty in his heart, and when he finally faces the Barbarian Witch Water Ministry, he may stand on the side of the Barbarian Witch Water Ministry.

"This time, both I and the Witch Water Department will try to keep you from being executed directly. Those who are not willing to give up will definitely throw you into Longxiao Valley. They will find a way to make you die in the Valley of Dragonroar. So you don't just have to help me find out the truth about the assassination of the patriarch of the Barbarian Witch Water Tribe, twenty-two years ago. You also have to be careful of someone assassinating you and save your own life!"

"You only need to stay in the Dragon Roar Valley for three months, and after three months, no matter whether you find the truth or not, the Barbarian Witch Water Department and I will fish you out of the Dragon Roar Valley!"

Venerable Qinghu said, and then looked at Zhang Baijian with inquiring eyes.

Zhang Baijian stared at Venerable Qinghu's eyes, pondered for a moment, and then nodded. (To be continued.) )
