Two months later, Canye Pavilion, Xingyao Mountain.
Wei Lin turned out of an intersection and met Yue Yi unexpectedly. This was the first time they met after their mission.
The two of them returned to the pavilion. Yue Yi escaped quite easily this way, but after all, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. There were so many people chasing him, and he also suffered some injuries. As soon as he came back, he went into seclusion to heal his injuries;
Wei Lin ran fast and was only slightly affected by the attack of Zhenjun Fushu's flag gun. However, Zhenjun Yuanying's attack was very serious even if it only affected him, and he was recovering from his injuries after returning.
"I heard that you have been in seclusion since you came back. Are you injured?" Yue Yi asked after being stunned.
Wei Lin nodded and didn't want to talk more about his experience, so he asked, "I heard that Master Bai Lu also returned from serious injuries. Are you feeling better?"
"I just woke up today, and now the Pavilion Master has invited everyone to ask questions."
While talking, two people walked out of the path ahead, it was Lan Shu and Mo You.
Wei Linzhuang seemed to have said unintentionally: "This time the four major factions are clearly well prepared."
Hearing this, Yue Yi's eyes darkened. Who leaked the news and wanted to put them to death?
His eyes fell on Yan Xiaoyan's Lan Shu. Could it be her?
This was not the first time that she did not know what to do. If she had not shaken the foundation of the pavilion in order to get rid of Qianjiu, the four major factions would not have pursued them like this.
"Why don't the two junior brothers go in? What are you talking about?" Lan Shu asked with a gentle smile on his face.
Yue Yi felt that the smile was very dazzling, and couldn't help but choked: "Master, respect your injury. If uncle Yi dies, senior sister can laugh."
Wei Lin raised his eyebrows, Ruoyi died? Wasn't it Bai Lu who went deep into Tianxin Pavilion alone? How come it was Ruoyi who died?
This time, Bai Lu's strength not only exceeded the expectations of the four major factions, but also far exceeded their expectations. What he thought was a certain death situation actually allowed him to escape.
"Senior Brother Yueyi!"
Mo You called out in a low voice and then tried to smooth things over: "Senior Uncle Bai Lu was seriously injured, and Senior Brother Yue Yi was overly sad. He spoke indiscriminately for a while. I hope Senior Sister can forgive me."
Lan Shu's face turned even uglier, but he was just seriously injured on a mission. It was normal for a killer, and it was always a big deal to be injured.
She snorted coldly, tossed her sleeves and walked away.
She didn't appreciate it, and Mo You was a little embarrassed. He looked at the two of them, forced a smile and said, "Let's go in too. Don't keep the Pavilion Master and all the uncles and uncles waiting."
In the meeting hall, almost all the senior officials in the cabinet were present. The deputy master, whom he had not seen for a long time, appeared. Bai Lu was sitting on an armchair, her face was so pale that it was almost transparent, and her breath was extremely weak. Ying Mei stood slightly behind the side of the pillar with her head lowered. At one point, the shadow half covered his face, making it difficult to see his expression.
After a while, Ruo Qi came in with Shen Yi and waved his hand to activate the ban on the meeting hall.
After everyone gathered, Xing Ye turned around and said: "The latest news is that in addition to the large and small strongholds, our spies buried in the aristocratic families in Hengyue City have been dug out one by one, and no one is left."
His voice was very weak, and there was no hint of joy, but the people below were very loud and did not dare to say a word. Just yesterday, a member of the mission hall who came to Xingyao Mountain to report was almost strangled to death by Zhenjun Xingye. Now the wound on his neck The pinch marks haven't gone away yet.
Although it took a day to digest it, who can be sure that the Pavilion Master's anger has dissipated.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Xingye sneered: "Yue Yi, tell me about your experience, starting from entering Hengyue City."
Yue Yi hurriedly stepped forward and told how his group entered the city, met Yunli by chance, and arranged to meet at Feimiaoxuan. His series of responses when the subsequent incident occurred, and how he went through hardships and evaded the four major sects. After chasing and escaping back to the pavilion, everything was described quickly and accurately.
Xingye didn't ask anything, and then asked Wei Lin to talk about his experience, followed by Mo You.
After the three of them finished speaking, Xingye Fang said in a cold voice: "This operation, not only the stronghold, but also Ruoyi's death, must be thoroughly investigated to the end!"
As soon as these words came out, Wei Lin clearly felt that the breath of everyone in the hall was stagnant. He glanced around with his peripheral vision, and most people had a look of surprise on their faces.
Obviously, they didn't know this either.
After a while, Ruo Qi looked at Bai Lu, his eyes filled with disbelief: "How could it be possible? Senior brother is one of the most skilled experts in the cabinet. How could he be dead?!"
Bai Lu's usually dull face showed a rare trace of sadness, and she slowly told the story, "The four major factions are hot on their heels..."
"Pavilion Master, please investigate this matter thoroughly!" Ruo Qi was angry. Someone must have leaked the secret of this matter. So far, Canye Pavilion has never failed such a big mission.
Xingye's eyes were sharp: "You are in charge of the mission hall and you will verify every detail of the mission release."
"yes."
His eyes turned around the deputy pavilion master and Mang Zhong, and he pondered for a while, and said: "Mang Zhong, you take people to Hengyue City to investigate, Yingmei cooperates..."
Xingye arranged his manpower vigorously and resolutely, and all the personnel involved in the stronghold were investigated from the time the mission was released to when the five people arrived at Tianxin Pavilion after they left the pavilion. The most important thing is naturally the journey after arriving at Hengyue City.
Yue Yi broke out in a cold sweat. Earlier, the pavilion master specifically asked the three of them how they arrived at Hengyue City. Besides, the reason, was he suspecting that the three of them had leaked the secret?
Mo You bit his lip and said boldly: "Pavilion Master, I think Qian Shi is the most suspected person who leaked the secret this time."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt two cold eyes falling on her, and a cool voice sounded next to her, making her back feel cold, "Junior Sister Mo must have evidence when she speaks."
Mo You stiffened, she clenched her fists, and without looking at Wei Lin's cold eyes, she analyzed methodically: "Except for a few of us, she is the only one who knows about this operation in Hengyue City. "
"Then you are also suspicious." A voice suddenly interrupted.
Wei Lin was stunned and looked up and to the left in surprise. His eyes were filled with cold light and his expression was cold.
He knew that Mang Zhong was not happy with Mo You. After all, Wen Ming was the one who got the Buddha relics for Mo You. It was normal for Mang Zhong not to want to see her, but he had never directly made her unable to step down.
Mo You's face turned red. After coming to Canye Pavilion, although everyone talked about her behind her back, because of her status as a member of the Shuangjiang tribe, the pavilion master valued her, and no one had ever embarrassed her in person.
Wei Lin withdrew his gaze and said: "Pavilion Master Mingjian, Qianshi only went to Feimiaoxuan, and no other strongholds are known, and the trouble was not just at Feimiaoxuan."
Yue Yi also hurriedly said: "We only found out about Fei Miaoxuan's stronghold before we set off, and Master informed us about it. We didn't know anything about the rest."
Wei Lin was speechless. It was so obvious that he didn't need to be reminded. He was so eager to explain away that he seemed to have a ghost in his heart.
Mang Zhong helped again: "Thousands of things are related to the Eastern Continent, so we must be cautious."
Not to mention Wei Lin, everyone in the room looked at him in surprise, except for one or two people who saw clearly.
Xingye ignored their differences and said softly: "Ying Mei."
"After Qian Shi met at Fei Miaoxuan that day, she stayed at the inn and never went out. According to her, she was accompanying an alchemist to make alchemy until Zhenjun Fushu and others from Taiyi Sect arrived later..."
Xingye: "Has it been verified?"
Yingmei nodded: "There are people coming and going at the inn, and indeed no one saw her going out; the incident occurred in several strongholds in Hengyue City. According to her, the four major sects have already figured out our strongholds, and there is a detailed report in their hands. List of persons entering and leaving.”
She paused and said, "Qian Shi is also on the list. Because she was disguised at the time, she has not been found yet. If we don't think of a way, it will be exposed sooner or later."
Xing Ye was silent for a moment and said: "Find a disciple with a similar body shape and go to Hengyue City for a walk."
Hearing this, Wei Lin breathed a sigh of relief. This was because he didn't believe Mo You's lies. He glanced at Mo You coldly. He was just a test subject of the Blood Ming Kung, and he really treated himself like a green onion.
Ying Mei's report continued, "The four major factions found the list of spies from the family in Fei Miaoxuan, and they found out our spies one by one without missing a beat."
At this point, she paused and continued: "Except for Jingwu, the rest of the people on the list have been picked out by the four major factions. "
"Jingwu?" Xingye frowned, "It's been more than a year and the list hasn't been updated?"
"It's a subordinate who neglected his duty."
This point proves Qian Shi's words in disguise. The four major factions got the list and are checking people according to the list, because Jing Wu has died long ago. If someone leaks the secret, the four major factions will not find a dead person.
Ying Mei glanced at Wei Lin calmly. Since they have formed an alliance, they must cooperate sincerely. If they both live well, they will have a greater chance of revenge.
Things came to a standstill again at this point. It was basically certain that the four major sects had found out the base of Hengyue City in advance, but someone must have leaked the secret about the mission to assassinate True Lord Jin Lan!
Hearing that their focus had been on the release and execution process, Wei Lin slightly raised the corners of his lips.
After the questioning of several executives, a group of senior executives discussed how to respond. Wei Lin and others who were not qualified to observe were asked to leave the meeting hall.
"Qianjiu, wait a minute." As soon as he walked out of the meeting hall, Mang Zhong chased him out.
