The moonlight outside the window shines through the curtains, barely outlining the large items in a certain bedroom.
In a dim, dim room, a slender figure sat in front of the dressing table, facing the moonlight, with his head lowered, looking at something:
"The southern stronghold of the Holy Church was attacked by strange forces. The two mid-level deacons disappeared and their lives are unknown.
“It has not yet been determined which force expressed the malicious intent, but it is most likely a test by Yehuai’s local forces.
"They are suspecting something and verifying something."
After reading to the end, the figure stood up slowly, came to the window, stretched out his hand to open the curtain, and let in more and brighter moonlight.
At the same time, a white deer mask was clearly reflected on her face.
The senior deacon of the White Bone Sect, Bailu.
Squeezing the message talisman in his hand, Bai Lu sighed suddenly and said with an inexplicable meaning:
"Yehuai Guanjia? Testing? Testing for what?"
After saying this, she immediately shook her head:
"Have you discovered it after all?"
Thinking of this, Bailu clapped his hands.
Soon, a figure walked out from the shadows of the courtyard and knelt down on one knee.
"Go to the stronghold in the south of the city." Bailu rubbed the lines of the message talisman, thought about it, and said calmly:
"Ask more carefully about the specific details of what happened."
The figure did not speak, but stood up, took a step back, returned to the shadows, and disappeared.
Bai Lu looked back and nodded slightly.
The information given by the sect was too simple and too rough. It only gave such a result without any detailed process. How can anyone analyze what kind of master the two mid-level deacons encountered?
"Those two guys will most likely die, but before that, they will definitely explain something."
Bai Lu turned around, looked around, carefully looked around the environment in the bedroom, and closed his eyes:
"It seems that I have to find another place to live."
Although the possibility of her being exposed is not high, it is still better to be cautious.
Two quarters of an hour later, Bai Lu's eyes turned and looked at the shadow of the wall again.
"Deacon, please ask clearly." In the darkness, a hoarse male voice came:
"At that time, two deacons, Gu Ying and Bai Qingyang, were having a gathering in the backyard, talking about something, and no one disturbed them.
"Those people in the front yard knew nothing, noticed nothing, and thought nothing unusual happened.
"They realized something was wrong when they saw the beam of light piercing the sky, and sent people to the backyard to investigate. However, by that time, Gu Ying and Bai Qingyang had already lost track of them."
"Didn't you notice anything?"
Bai Lu lowered his head and asked himself this question before looking into the shadow again and asked quietly:
"What do you think?"
The hoarse voice sounded again and said without any pause:
"This shows that a real martial arts master has died. Only in this way can we temporarily hide it from everyone and let everything happen without anyone noticing."
The voice paused for a moment before continuing:
"The person who took action must be at least two levels higher than Gu and Bai's martial arts realm.
"Also, to be able to temporarily isolate an area, it should be a device with some special ability."
Hearing this, Bai Lu nodded slowly:
"This is a direction for investigation."
She waved her hand and asked people to leave.
After a few breaths of silence, Bai Lu's movements did not change, but his voice became a little colder:
"How did you come?"
A man with black hair, a square face, and stern eyes sat on the chair with a straight face, his mouth wide open, as if he was smiling:
"I heard that there is some excitement in your sect, so I came to find out what it is about."
Bai Lu clenched his fists and his voice turned completely cold:
"This is an internal matter within our teaching. I don't need you, the Mengxing Sect's Xingxiu, to care about it."
When the man heard this, he was not angry. Instead, he laughed a few times and said proactively:
"We are allies now. You are in trouble here. Is it wrong for me to check in and see if I can help?"
After saying that, he didn't know what he thought of, shook his head slightly, and smiled again.
This time, Bai Lu finally turned around, glanced at the "Wu Shi" sitting on the wooden chair, and reminded him forcefully:
"If you really have this intention, you can discuss it with the higher-ups of our religion. I don't have that much authority within the religion and I can't control too many things."
"We are relatively familiar." The man cleared his throat:
"I'm here just as a reminder."
"What?" Bai Lu's voice did not change.
The smile on the man's face gradually disappeared and he said seriously:
"In this matter, I hope your religion will expand the scope of its investigation and not only target the local forces in Yehuai."
Bai Lu didn't nod or shake his head, he just looked at him:
"What on earth are you trying to say?"
The man was not in a hurry and said slowly:
"What I want to say is that the person who did it may not be the Yehuai force, but may come from other places."
Bai Lu pondered for a moment, seemed to realize something, and narrowed his eyes:
"You mean, over there in Nanyan City?"
The smile returned to the man's face, he nodded heavily and said:
"Yeah, we really can't ignore them."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes, as if recalling something, and his voice became deeper at the same time:
"Think about it, if the local forces in Yehuai take action, they will do it at the end after they have succeeded."
At this time, he suddenly stretched out a finger and poked it straight into the sky.
Without waiting for Bai Lu to respond, the man immediately gave the answer:
"No, those people will just let everything be done quietly."
Then, Bailu completed the supplement:
"So, the last beam of light was not the out-of-control power we thought, but some kind of declaration, some kind of warning?"
The man nodded appreciatively.
He felt that he was right. Only those forces from Nanyan City had such "arrogance", right?
Bai Lu took a hidden breath and tried to make his voice as calm as possible:
"Your guess is very reasonable. I will report it in time."
"Okay." The man nodded and continued: "If you find those people, please inform me in time."
Bailu said "hmm" and looked at the man.
I saw a slightly cruel smile on the corner of Xingxiu from the Mengxing Sect:
"I have long wanted to see those 'big forces'."
Somehow, seeing this smile, Bai Lu slowly felt a chill in his heart.
…
…
late at night.
A hundred miles south of Yehuai City, an old man with white hair and beard crushed the monster that had just emerged from the ground. He wiped his tired face, raised his head, and looked forward.
"It's finally almost here."
The old man said to himself:
"Fortunately, the people from the Jingyang family are generous enough. They just came to investigate and save a few small people who may or may not be able to get it, and then a large amount of Yuan Jing will be paid into the account. This business is not bad."
