In the inn, everyone's mental state improved significantly after a night's rest. Only Yun Mo's body was not able to rest due to his severe injuries and the continuous travel. Fortunately, Qin Yunchuan still had a lot of elixirs donated by Gu Shakong, including some treasures from Yaowang Valley. After giving Yun Mo another dose, he was finally able to hold on and followed the others to the Sword Forging Valley.
After walking like this for another whole day, and seeing Yuping Mountain dozens of miles away, Mu Jingyu wanted to return to the Sword Forging Valley in one go. However, Yunmo couldn't hold on anymore, so he had no choice but to come to Yonglan City, which was closest to Yuping Mountain.
This time, before Mu Jingyu could find an inn to rest, the few people who had just entered the city were recognized by the altar master stationed here at Wangxian Tower.
"Mu Shaoxia, I finally found you." The altar owner's name is Yang Xiangwan, because when Mu Jingyu first looked for Mu Daocheng and asked him to help Qin Yunchuan forge the furnace, he had met several people. , so after being recognized by Yang Xiangwan, Mu Jingyu did not deny his identity.
After looking around and realizing that no one was paying attention, Mu Jingyu grabbed Yang Xiangwan's arm and said, "Brother Yang, how did you expect that we would pass through Yonglan City?"
Yang Xiangwan took Mu Jingyu and others, and while walking towards the restaurant in the city, asked: "Oh my, Mr. Mu, have you gone to Shujian Villa?"
Mu Jingyu was shocked and said calmly: "Haha, why did Brother Yang say this?"
"Okay, there are no other people here, so Mu Shaoxia doesn't need to be secretive." Yang Xiangwan lowered his voice and said: "In the past few days, there has been a lot of noise about the entire family of Shujian Villa being wiped out, and the entire Kyushu knows about it. Although the six factions, Master Taier, Nangong Jianxian, and Fairy Chimei rushed to Shujian Villa to check, no trace of you was found. However, Master Taier once left the Far North when you left. When we go to the West Hanyuan Continent, I sent a letter to the original poster to pay close attention to the whereabouts of you and Princess Bi Yun."
Mu Jingyu said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "So...every move I make since I left the Far North has been closely monitored by both of you?"
"Mu Shaoxia, don't be angry, isn't Master Taier also concerned about your safety?" Yang Xiangwan knew that he had made a mistake, so he quickly changed the subject and continued to explain: "Although the deaths of those disciples were found in Shujian Villa, It may be the work of Wujixu and the Yun family. Only Master Taier concludes that if this matter is really done by Master Tongxuan, the target must be Mu Shaoxia, not the newly acquired genius treasure of Shujian Villa!"
Mu Jingyu only learned from some people yesterday that the disciples of the Six Sects and the three fairies Taier Zhenren, Nangong Jingqiu, and Chi Mei rushed to Shujian Villa and finally mobilized a large number of people to find Master Tongxuan to question him. He quickly asked: " Oh? I heard that they went to Wujixu together, does Brother Yang know the details? "
"That's exactly why I came here." As he spoke, Yang Xiangwan had already led everyone to Wangxian Tower in the city. The waiter, who had been waiting for a long time, led everyone to the private room on the second floor.
"Young Shaoxia Mu, Senior Mu, please come in. Ambassador Meng Xunqin has been waiting inside for a long time. If you have anything to ask, just ask him. I believe you have been traveling for days and are hungry. Come on, little one. Prepare some food and drinks." Yang Xiangwan pushed open the private room and pointed at Meng Pingwei who stood up.
"Thank you, Brother Yang." After Mu Jingyu thanked Yang Xiangwan, he stretched out his hand and let Mu Daocheng and the Nine-Tailed Fairy Fox and his wife walk in first, and then greeted the remaining people and took their seats one by one.
Meng Pingwei stood up, poured tea for everyone, and said, "Senior Mu, Young Hero Mu, and the other young heroes, please drink a cup of tea first to moisten your throat."
"You're welcome, Meng Xunfang." Mu Jingyu didn't have time to chat with Meng Pingwei, so he pushed the tea cup away and said, "Just now, Master Yang said, if I want to ask about the various factions surrounding Wujixu, I can go to Meng Pingwei. As a visiting envoy, we don’t need to be polite."
"Yes." Meng Pingwei nodded, with an expression as if he had known this before, cleared his throat and said: "Young Master Mu, Fei Ge, the master of the pavilion, sent a message to me to rush to Yonglan City at night. After being out of danger at Shujian Villa, we will immediately return to Sword Forging Valley. I was ordered to come here this time to find only one thing."
"It's okay to ask, Meng Xunfang. I, Mu Jingyu, will tell you exactly what you want to know." In fact, without Meng Pingwei having to ask, Mu Jingyu already knew what he wanted to ask.
It's just that Master Taier learned that they accompanied Mu Daocheng to Shujian Villa and were besieged by a powerful enemy. Is the identity of the powerful enemy known and whether it was the work of Wujixu and the Yun family as seen in the Villa?
Sure enough, Meng Pingwei's next words confirmed Mu Jingyu's suspicion: "Young Master Mu, although the disciples of the Six Sects and the Pavilion Master have not found any trace of you in Shujian Villa, the Pavilion Master knows very well that those people are I went there for you. I was specially ordered to come here and ask if they... are members of the Wujixu and Yun families?"
After Meng Pingwei finished speaking, he stared nervously into Mu Jingyu's eyes. It seemed that he was also nervous about the next answer. If it was really what Wujixu and the Yun family did...according to Mu Jingyu's temperament, he would definitely not let it go. When the time comes, disputes will inevitably arise in Kyushu.
Mu Jingyu did not immediately answer Meng Pingwei's words, but asked instead: "Meng Xun, I don't know that Senior Taier and various sects have arrived in Wujixu, so what does Tongxuan say?"
Meng Pingwei was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Of course Master Tongxuan will not admit it."
"Then...will others believe it easily?"
Meng Pingwei answered honestly: "From the outside, it seems that the disciples of Shujian Villa did die in the hands of Wujixu and the Yun family. But after careful inspection by the six sects, they found that this was just someone setting the blame. . Mu Shaoxia, please stop being dumb and tell me what happened that night. I can also go back and revive the Pavilion Master."
The reason why Mu Jingyu asked a few questions was because he wanted to know the reactions of the various factions and Wujixu. However, from Meng Pingwei's few words, it has been realized that this matter was not done by Wujixu, and each faction also saw that this was a secret plan.
It is still unknown whether the purpose is the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain in his hand, or whether it is to provoke a dispute between the two parties.
After pondering for a moment, Mu Jingyu decided to tell Meng Pingwei everything that happened that night, and he would pass it on to Master Taier. After all, the disciples of Tianji Pavilion and Wangxian Pavilion are all over Jiuzhou, and they can get a lot of information that others cannot. With their help, we might be able to find the person behind the scheme.
"Okay." After making up his mind, Mu Jingyu told all the details of that night. The occasional omissions were completed by Qin Yunchuan and others.
"So... Master Tongxuan really intends to take away the Jiu Yaoxuan Light Chain from the young hero's hand?" After Meng Pingwei heard this, he glanced at Yun Mo who was leaning on the back of the chair.
As soon as everyone walked in, he was keenly aware that among the crowd, he was the only one who didn't recognize this girl with a weak aura. But since Mu Jingyu didn't reveal her identity directly, of course he couldn't ask any more questions.
How did you know that the girl in front of you would be Yun Jingtian's youngest daughter, Yun Mo, a close disciple of Master Tongxuan! What surprised him even more was that Yun Mo actually did not obey Master Tong Xuan's order and secretly stole the Jiu Yao Xuan Light Chain. Instead, he secretly warned him. In the end, he was injured by Mu Jingyu's Wuyin Immortal Sword in the chaos. !
Mu Jingyu nodded and said: "Mr. Meng Xunwen, I think that Master Tongxuan is seeking the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain in my hand. Most people, including Senior Taier, should be aware of it."
"Exactly, otherwise, the various factions would not have surrounded Wujixu even though they knew that there was something wrong with Shujian Villa." Meng Pingwei then went on to tell the details of what happened after the various factions surrounded the mountain. .
"Since Master Tongxuan has denied it, and each faction also believes that there must be a hidden secret, I think Wujixu will not be embarrassed for the time being." Qin Yunchuan picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, and said: "Brother Meng, our affairs here have been solved. I have told you everything. I would also like to trouble you to go back and tell Senior Tai Er and ask him to investigate secretly and be sure to find out the real culprit that night."
"Of course." Meng Pingwei agreed immediately, but then he made a mistake: "To be honest with Qin Shaoxia, because Shujian Villa is small and weak, and it is located in a remote place in the vast Yunzhou, our Tianji Pavilion and Wangxian There are not many people left in Lou, so... we don't know much about the people who came and went at Shujian Villa that night. Since you have experienced it yourself, can you make some guesses about the identities of those people? We can also investigate based on your guesses. Do it once, so as not to wander around like a headless fly and end up working in vain.”
"After talking for a long time, this is the real purpose why Senior Taier asked you to come to us." Mu Jingyu thought to himself. But it makes sense to think about it. They have experienced it first-hand and are very familiar with the situation that night. It is reasonable for Master Taier to ask Meng Pingwei to inquire about their speculations.
Mu Jingyu and Qin Yunchuan looked at each other, and the latter nodded slightly, indicating that he could tell Meng Pingwei everyone's guesses. Mu Jingyu said: "Meng Xun, to be honest, after we left Shujian Villa, we agreed that This matter has nothing to do with the Han family."
"Ice City Han Family?" Meng Pingwei was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized: "I understand! Although Han Yao died in the temple, the foundation of the Han Family has not been broken! Presumably except for those spies from various factions who have revealed their identities In addition, there are more disciples hiding among them. This can explain why the disciples of Shujian Villa only have superficial Wujixu and Yun family's skills, but no advanced skills."
After understanding the key, Meng Pingwei did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately stood up and said: "Young Master Mu, Senior Mu, all young heroes, Meng Pingwei must go back immediately to report to the Pavilion Master and ask him to inform Master Jin to investigate with all possible strength. The whereabouts of Han Songqing and Han Wenyuan must be found out, and their purpose for doing this must be found out!"
"Thank you for your help, Meng Xunfang." Mu Jingyu stood up and watched Meng Pingwei walk to the door of the private room. He suddenly said: "By the way, there is something I hope that Meng Xunfang can keep a secret for us."
Meng Pingwei stopped and said, "Young Master Mu, just ask."
"That's Miss Yun Moyun." Mu Jingyu pointed at Yun Mo and said, "Now, Mr. Tongxuan and Yun Jingtian must think that Miss Yun is either dead or kidnapped by us. Regardless of Mr. Tongxuan, No matter what Er and Yun Jingtian think, I don’t want them to know that Miss Yun is not dead. So, I hope you can help us keep the secret."
"This..." Meng Pingwei was a little confused for a moment. Logically speaking, Yun Mo was Yun Jingtian's daughter and a close disciple of Master Tongxuan. Why did Mu Jingyu keep her by his side? Moreover, judging from Yun Mo's appearance, it was obvious that he was not held hostage by them.
However, Meng Pingwei knew that Mu Jingyu must have a reason for doing this. At that moment, he was wise enough not to inquire about the details. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Young Master Mu. Apart from telling the master about this, I will definitely keep it secret from others."
"Thank you very much." Mu Jingyu said with clasped fists.
At this moment, Yang Xiangwan pushed the door in, followed by two waiters, holding three large plates of wine and food. Seeing Meng Pingwei preparing to leave, he asked while busy placing the wine and food on the table. : "Brother Meng, are you leaving? The food and wine are ready. It won't be too late for you to leave after you've eaten."
"Master Yang came just in time." Meng Pingwei waved his hand and thanked Yang Xiangwan for his kindness: "I still have some things to do to meet the master, so I'll take my leave first."
Yang Xiangwan knew that during the time he left, Meng Pingwei must have asked all the questions he wanted to ask, and had obtained important information, so he no longer wanted to stay.
Some people died, but not completely...
