Everyone escaped from Broken Heart Valley. After a failed pursuit, Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao fled back to the sect. Then Lou Qingyao and her elders immediately left the Five Spirit Sect. That day Qian Chao The five people did not keep chasing into the sect, but took advantage of the chaos and slipped away quietly. For the five of them, all the plans had been accomplished at this time, and there were still things left to do, so they left quietly. By the time they returned to the sect, it was already that night, and they walked on a road that was rarely used in normal times. There are people entering and exiting the road. Only in this way can they ensure that they are not seen.
The most important thing is to hand over the unconscious Jing Lu to the Wuling Jing family, and also hand over Wu Han, who was knocked unconscious by Li Jian. All the answers can be obtained from this person's mouth.
Of course, it was not Qian Chao and Tang Ping who approached Jingshi directly. With their identities, Jingshi would not pay attention to them. When the five of them returned at night, several elders gathered together to wait.
At that time, Tang Bonian had already sent away Lou Qingyao and the people from Shizilin. Naturally, he was present for such an important matter. Also present were Tang Ping's master, Fairy Guhuo, Yanxuan's master, Fairy Zhong Yao, Li Jian's master, Fairy Leng Yue, and of course Lu Pingchuan's master, Senior Kang Fu, together could control the situation and attract the attention of the Jing family.
Seeing that the five children had returned safely, Tang Bonian immediately sent a letter to one of the people in charge of the Jing family, and agreed to meet immediately, and then handed over Jing Lu and Wu Han to them in person.
The meeting place was a quiet courtyard within the sect, a separate courtyard of the Jing family. There were several distinguished elders from the Jing family, and one of them standing in the middle was probably the most important elder of the Jing family. After seeing the unconscious Jing Lu, his expression immediately changed. He looked at the five Qi refining disciples behind Tang Bonian and other elders with a sullen expression, and asked cautiously in a tone full of unkindness:
"What exactly is going on?"
There was still a bit of suspicion and hostility in his tone. He probably thought that Jing Lu, a stupid young man, had always hated Qian Chao and Tang Ping because of Jing Jie's incident. This time he went out to find trouble for the five of them, but he was taught a lesson. After a meal, not only that, he was caught and brought back to investigate. Logically speaking, such conflicts between qi refining disciples are not uncommon, but what happened between the Jing family and these five children is something to write about. Because of Jing Jie's incident, the unjust Jing family was forced to make a vow not to To pursue these five people, this time, even if it is a conflict between a few children, if we investigate it carefully, it can be seen that it happened because of Jing's revenge for Jing Jie's incident. Naturally, it violated Jing's rules. But given the oath he had made, the Council found a suitable reason to suppress the Jing family, and Tang Bonian was the elder of the Council, so this matter made the people of the Jing family wary.
But who is this strange Qi Refining monk?
Moreover, the elder Jing's eyes were sharp and he could tell that Tang Bonian and the others didn't seem to come to ask questions, or that they didn't seem to have more trouble because of this matter. So what exactly did this guy have planned.
Tang Bonian said:
"Everyone is in your hands. Although he has fainted, his life is not in danger. We don't know what happened and we don't want to know. A few children went out and had a little trouble and moved hands. It's harmless. Don't do too much. It's okay to go too far, but after the five children came back, it seemed that things were not that simple. Elder Jing, I know you have always disliked these five children, but this time, if it weren't for these five children, I'm afraid this Jing Lu will definitely die, and your Jing family will lose another person. So, haha, your Jing family owes these five children a big favor this time. Well, that’s what happened today, just in a few Hours ago, these children were considered sensible and knew that they should not ask more questions, so they only brought them back and informed us elders. Not only did these five children not ask them a single question. , we didn’t ask either, it’s about you Jing family, you should ask it yourself and make your own decision.”
Tang Bonian's statement was unexpected by those in the Jing family, especially the old man who spoke. It seemed that there must be other reasons. After briefly asking Tang Ping a few more questions, the people in the Jing family looked suspicious. They took away the two unconscious people, and Qian Chao and the others were a little tired after spending nearly a month outside, so the elders said a few words and then dispersed.
It wasn't obvious when he was outside, but when he returned to his residence, in a familiar and comfortable environment, the feeling of fatigue quickly came over him. After Qian Chao returned, he immediately fell asleep and when he opened his eyes again, he was already tired. It's afternoon, and after sleeping well for a while, I feel that the fatigue accumulated from going out has dissipated a lot.
Nothing happened on this day, and Tang Ping didn't come to see Qian Chao. This was the longest time the five of them had stayed outside, and it was also the most laborious, at least for Qian Chao, so after eating some meals Qian Chao still felt a little sleepy, so he lay down and slept again early.
When he woke up again, Qian Chao really felt that he was full of energy. Only then did he start to guess what kind of reaction Jing would have after knowing the real reason for Jing Lu's injury, and whether he would go to Zong. Raising an army to accuse them, but later thinking about it, it shouldn't be possible. After all, Jing Lu came back alive. Maybe the Jing family would think that the Zong family was going to start targeting them. In this case, the fierce conflict wouldn't... at least it shouldn't happen so soon, but in private There must be a layout, at least there should be an undercurrent surging under the calm within the sect.
It was on this day that Qian Chao heard about Shangguan Hong's embarrassing escape after being defeated outside the clan.
Someone could actually defeat Shangguan Hong. Qian Chao was a little stunned after hearing this. Is there such a powerful person among those invited by Zong Xi and Zhang Yi?
Qian Chao couldn't figure it out. Although the five of them were actually controlling the other two parties in Heartbreak Valley, they couldn't possibly know everything. Therefore, Qian Chao couldn't figure out how Shangguan Hong was defeated.
Of course, the most important thing about this day was not that he knew this rumor, but that several important people came to visit that night.
When Ye Qianchao was reading a book with yellowed pages in front of the case, he suddenly felt that there were a few more people in the room. Instantly, the hair on his body stood on end. This was a rare feeling. He hurriedly looked up and realized At some point, someone actually came into his room, right opposite him.
Glancing at the five people, one of them was an old man, and he looked very familiar. Qian Chao immediately remembered that this was the elder of the Jing family who talked to Tang Bonian on the day when Jing Lu was returned. It seemed that this person had the highest status among the Jing family. The important one was a stranger to the other four. They saw this old man with a somewhat skinny figure standing upright in front of Qian Chao's case, looking over with an expressionless face.
Qian Chao was so panicked that he immediately stood up and saluted.
The old man waved his hand and said:
"Okay, you don't have to be polite. We met that day, old man Jingsong, and I came here tonight specifically to thank you. We have already made it clear that the child Jinglu in Broken Heart Valley can save his life because of your efforts. , Well, because of Jing Jie’s incident before, some people in the Jing family did look at you very awkwardly. Although we made an oath to the council, you are a smart man and you should know that if the Jing family really wants to get rid of you. It's easy to get rid of you, but what you did this time really surprised everyone in the Jing family, and they are all grateful to the five of you, so come on..."
Following the old man's gestures, the other four people came over. They were two men and two women. They all looked like middle-aged people, and they should be two couples.
The old man continued with a serious look:
"These are Jing Jie's parents, and they are the ones who hate you the most among the Jing family. Well, these are Jing Lu's parents. If it weren't for you this time, the Jing family would have lost another good seedling. No matter what happened before, I brought them here today to express my gratitude to you for saving Jing Lu; and secondly, to reassure you that no one from the Jing family will have any plans for you again in the future, you can rest assured about this."
