Lei Jiang now wants to die.
But looking back at Yao Shengtian, I saw that he was still as calm as an ancient well, and there was no trace of disappointment. He did not blame Lei Jiang for his carelessness, but said:
"There is no need to blame yourself, Xiao Jiang. It's okay not to give up things that are destined to have no connection. Also, if Mengxun guesses this matter later, I'll keep it a secret from her for the time being. However, a series of things that have happened recently have made me feel... Bad feeling."
Lei Jiang's heart suddenly trembled when he heard this. The boss had not said such words for many years. He only heard Yao Shengtian continue to say:
"If the boy named Qingyun is really the queen of Yi Qing, then it is clear that Yi Qing and Yun Mulan are dead, and Yun Youya rushed to Yiren Mountain in a hurry, which will completely confirm this matter."
"Yes, I heard Qingyun say that it seems that his mother died early and his father died again."
"Well, he took Qing Meng to Yiren Mountain. Most likely, they set up a restriction on their burial ground before they passed away. Yun Youya couldn't forcefully break it, so he went to find helpers."
Lei Jiang nodded, connecting all these things together, his heart suddenly became enlightened, and then he said very solemnly:
"Indeed, it's true. If your cultivation has reached the level of the two of them, it's not difficult to hide it from us or the spies set up by other sects. If Master Lan hadn't brought the young lady along with him, I'm afraid everyone would still be in the dark."
Yao Shengtian hummed and continued:
"The crux of the problem lies here. Although the boy named Qingyun is cautious, he doesn't keep much from you, otherwise we wouldn't be able to deduce these things. Besides, from what you said, he should be used by others to use his true nature. Yuan Lai extended his life, which means that the person who extended his life was either Yi Qing, Yun Mulan, or Yi Chen."
Lei Jiang nodded and said:
"It shouldn't be Yichen. I checked it for him."
He also slowly came out of his depression.
Some things really cannot be forced. Besides, he still has some expectations in his heart. If the young lady can really meet Qingyun again in the future, as long as he is allowed to join the Yao family, then wouldn't this Qilin tooth...
Yao Shengtian's next words once again interrupted Lei Jiang's distracted mind, and he continued to analyze calmly:
"Yes, the two brothers Yi Chen and Yi Qing had a falling out hundreds of years ago because of Yun Mulan. I'm afraid they didn't even know they had this cheap nephew. Besides, Yi Qing and his wife are not fools, so they must seize the Qilin Tooth. It is to extend the life of his son."
"The boss analyzed it."
Lei Jiang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"But according to what you said, Yun Mulan died early, but Yi Qing died recently. I think his death was definitely not an accident!"
Similarly, Lei Jiang is not stupid. He used to be in charge of the Demon Shengmen intelligence agency, so he can naturally think of the strangeness of Yi Qing's death.
"Boss, are you saying that Yi Qing died unexpectedly?"
Yao Shengtian slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air in his chest, as if he was slowly sorting out all the confusing thoughts, nodded and continued:
"It's very possible that Old Shitou Yun Youya must have passed away after receiving the news. As for the murderer, I'm afraid it's not simple!"
"Boss, do you think the murderer is a monk from the sect, a casual cultivator passing by? Or a great demon with towering cultivation in the Hundred Thousand Mountains?"
Yao Shengtian shook his head and did not answer Lei Jiang's words. Seeing that his boss fell silent, Lei Jiang still said a little frustrated:
"Hey, the boss blames me. The young lady is too young. Even if she is very smart, she cannot think of so many things. On the contrary, it is my carelessness that caused this Qilin Tooth to fall into the hands of the Immortal Sword Sect. I'm afraid Yi Chen will laugh now. Maybe it’s crooked.”
"Haha, that's not necessarily the case!"
Yao Shengtian's words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in Lei Jiang's ears, making him dizzy:
"Old...Boss, what do you mean?"
Yao Shengtian was seen playing with the broken chair handle in his hand, and said with great interest:
"A few days ago, according to the report from our spies in the Juexian Sect, a female deacon in the Juexian Sect brought back news that the Qilin Tooth had long fallen into the hands of Qing Xutian. Although we don't know whether it was true or not, the female deacon immediately He was controlled by the old ghost Juexian. The old ghost also sent all the elite spies in the sect to the territory of Liangzhou. It seems that he is determined to win."
Lei Jiang opened his mouth wide when he heard this, looking like he was in disbelief, but he immediately shook his huge ugly head and said to Yao Shengtian:
"It shouldn't be, boss! If your previous inference is true, then Qingyun appears in Yaoguang City, Yuezhou. Unless Qingxu Tian violates the taboo and crosses the border to arrest people, there is no way that Qilin Ya will fall into their hands, and the master of Juexian Sect He has always been cunning and cunning, could it be that he released false news?"
Yao Shengtian shook his head and stopped playing, then said:
"What you don't know is that the female deacon is Xiao Luoyi, one of the Four Great Masters of Juexian. She has always been the confidant of the old ghost Juexian. The old ghost even used some secret techniques to confirm that Xiao Luoyi The words are true.”
Hearing this, Lei Jiang felt even more confused.
He didn't understand. If what Xiao Luoyi said was true, could it be that Qingxutian's disciples followed them all the way to Yuezhou and waited for them to leave before arresting them?
At this time, Yao Shengtian stared fixedly at the vast sky outside the house. Between the wind and the remaining clouds, the general trend of the changes in the world seemed to be reflected in his eyebrows. After a while, he did not talk about the authenticity of the news anymore but changed the topic. Asked Lei Jiang:
"Xiao Jiang, are you sure that that boy is really a mortal without any cultivation?"
Lei Jiang was stunned for a moment, then said decisively:
"That's natural. I'm not so dim that I can't tell the difference between a mortal and a monk, right?"
Yao Shengtian looked at Lei Jiang's determined expression and smiled, without commenting, then raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice again:
"Since they are all true, let's see who can remove the false and retain the true!"
The conversation changed and Yao Shengtian then ordered:
"Xiao Jiang, please make arrangements in the next two days. Go to Ling Jue Palace to tell Luo Yinge that if they are really sincere, they will not dedicate that small secret realm to us as a vote, and let them directly make it known to the world, saying that in two years Later, the small secret realm will be open to all low-level monks in the world as a place of trial."
"Ah? Boss, that's a fragment of a small world. Let's..."
Lei Jiang said in surprise.
"It doesn't matter. I heard from Ling Juedian that this little secret realm is full of mysteries. We just want to use other people's hands to explore the mysteries! At the same time, let them know that if they agree, then they will become members of our Demon Sect from now on. , as long as I, Yao Shengtian, live, they will be protected by my Yao family."
"Yes, boss!"
"By the way, tell them again that I will put the treasure we got last time into it for everyone to fight for, but Ling Juedian must declare to the outside world that this object is the Qilin that was captured by Yi Qing and Yun Mulan many years ago. The teeth contain the secret of their ascension!"
After saying that, Yao Shengtian grinned, looking very naughty, like a naughty kid who had succeeded in a prank, and then said:
"But before that, we still need to operate. As for how to operate, you don't need me to teach you, right Xiao Jiang? Remember, keep an eye on Ling Jue Palace and don't let them make mistakes on this important matter. .”
After hearing Yao Shengtian's arrangement, Lei Jiang couldn't help but become serious. He straightened his back and said yes, and then asked:
"Don't worry, boss! Xiaojiang promises to complete the mission! But let's not talk about whether Ling Juedian agrees or not. Didn't you say you want to use that treasure to win over that clan? If you can take advantage of outsiders so easily..."
Before Lei Jiang finished speaking, Yao Shengtian gently waved his hand to interrupt. His neatly groomed mustache also twitched slightly, and he said unhurriedly:
"It doesn't matter, Ling Jue Palace will agree. The Haiyou Sword Sect has suppressed them for more than a thousand years with the tacit approval of the Immortal Sword Sect. If they don't find a new backer at this time, their situation will be even more difficult. Besides, this little secret realm It was already a hot potato for them. The Haiyou Sword Sect had been jealous for a long time. Even if Luo Yinge offered it to the Immortal Sword Sect in exchange for a temporary respite, it would only be able to relieve an urgent need. Moreover, the Immortal Sword Sect may not necessarily like it. What fragments of this small world!”
Yao Shengtian stroked his mustache extremely elegantly, and smiled again, but his smile was filled with a strong murderous aura, like the kind of devil who ignores life:
"If you want to join me, Yao Shengtian, you have to prove your worth. I'm not that immortal old ghost who likes to collect junk. If Ling Juedian can't survive this trial, then they will all die. .”
Finally, Yao Shengtian no longer restrained his violent murderous intent, pouring out like a tide, his robes flying in excitement, and then he thought and ordered:
"Well, also, since we want to lure people from the Three Days and Four Factions into trouble, then we have to send people there. Then we will trouble you. After Ling Jue Palace releases the news, we will single out this person in the inner council. Well, I think there should be a lot of people willing to grab the treasure."
Immediately, Yao Shengtian smiled to himself again and said:
"I guess Elder Han hopes that his descendants can win the Qilin Tooth for him, right? What do you think? Xiao Jiang?"
"Hahahaha, boss, you are still awesome, but you don't know where we are?"
Lei Jiang was also Yao Shengtian's old subordinate for many years, and it didn't take him a moment to hear the hidden meaning of his sect leader's words.
It is true that the entire demon world is united, but it is impossible for millions of people to share the same mind. Several generations of the Yao family have been in charge of the demon sect for thousands of years. Now, Yao Shengtian's prestige is at its peak.
And his eldest son Yao Dingyi's cultivation has already reached the middle stage of the Wind Control Realm. He is the well-deserved number one among his peers, and he is very hopeful to take over the position of the next master of the Demonic Sect.
If Yao Ding is allowed to take over again and again, then the Yao family's status in the Demon Sheng Sect will probably take thousands of years to be shaken. It will be even more difficult for others to fight for power and profit, so the competition within the sect in these years has been so intense. It's extremely intense.
From the big bosses in Gui Lingjing to the juniors in Lingyin Realm, they are all scrambling to grab resources and rights.
