By the time Mu Qing and Ye Yun returned to the manor, Wang Yeqing had already finished chatting with Wei Shenghua. When he saw Ye Yun walking into the room with Mu Qing, he smiled slightly: "Has Xiao Yun figured out what to do?"
"Well." Ye Yun came to Wei Shenghua, "Aunt Hua, the identity of this secret guard is actually very clear."
Ye Yun made up her mind to confess to Wei Shenghua, so she no longer hesitated and gently pushed the hilt of the Yunhua Sword. With a "choking" sound, a phantom of Yuan Shen rushed out of the scabbard and rushed towards the door in an instant.
But before Mu Qing, who was standing at the door, could take action, several sword energy came first and restrained Yuanshen's hands and feet. Yuanshen was exhausted and fell to Mu Qing's feet with a clatter. Only then did he turn around. He said angrily: "Miss! What do you want to do?"
Ye Yun said coldly: "I am not your lady."
Mu Qing took a look at the illusory soul figure on the ground, carried him to Ye Yun's side, and then put the struggling guy on the ground, "This secret guard is on the ground in the middle of the sky, codename" "C", before joining the secret guard... he was a winner. Yun'er heard that he was Uncle Feng's brother, whose original name was Ying Hai. "
"Ying Hai..."
Wei Shenghua muttered softly, looking down at the extremely weak Ying Hai Yuanshen on the ground, "The robe of the secret guard can conceal the breath. If you hadn't given up your body, I couldn't be sure which island you were from at that time, but It's not important."
"...I heard from my brother that the only people who can mobilize the first three secret guards are the elders of the God's Guild. Who sent you to snatch the token?"
After hearing the unfamiliar name, Secret Guard B looked up at Wei Shenghua but did not answer.
He is not a monk who specializes in cultivating Yuanshen. After losing his physical body, his strength is basically the same. When he escaped with Yuanshen, he knew that tonight would be unlucky. The reason why he looked angry just now was just because of Ye Yun's identity. He saw a glimmer of opportunity.
Now that there is no chance of turning around, Secret Guard B wanted to retain the last bit of dignity belonging to this identity and said: "I have the responsibility of returning to life, so I thought about escaping with my soul. Now that I am caught by you, it is because my skills are inferior to others. You Both of you are the eldest ladies on the island, and I hope it’s you who kill me in the end.”
Ye Yun's eyes darkened. When she interrogated Uncle Ying Hai alone, he also did not reveal the person behind the scenes. The only thing he said was - "What happened tonight has nothing to do with Yingzhou Island."
As soon as this sentence came out, it actually deepened Ye Yun's suspicion of Ying Que.
Wei Shenghua took two steps closer. Although she knew that the secret guard Bing would not tell the answer she wanted to know, she was still very angry. "For so many years, the secret guards have been silently guarding Mishima. You have protected everyone very well." , why do you want to ruin this situation with your own hands now?"
Secret Guard B laughed and said feebly: "Miss Weisheng, do you know how bad the situation is now? We secret guards want to destroy this situation, and we have done nothing wrong. This is the fault of the elders of the Shenhui... consensus."
Wei Shenghua frowned deeply and stared at the secret guard B, speechless.
After saying these words, Secret Guard B strengthened his belief in his heart, and finally looked at Ye Yun, "Miss, don't go back during this period."
"Why?" Ye Yun suppressed her emotions, "Why do you all say this?"
Secret Guard B smiled, and an extremely real emotion appeared on his already illusory face, which seemed to be a yearning for a certain scene. He said slowly: "Because the current Three Immortals Island is a hell for children... …”
The soul of the secret guard B began to dissipate, turning into a little dim golden light, and then quickly disappeared in chaos.
Everyone in the room fell into silence. I don't know how long it took. Mu Qing looked at the position where the secret guard Bing was completely annihilated, and thought thoughtfully, "What is the bad situation he said? Could it be... hmm? Yun'er ——"
Mu Qing turned to look at Ye Yun and found that Ye Yun was in a low mood. He stretched out his arms and hugged her. He thought she was sad about the death of the secret guard. He thought about it and said, "He will dissipate his soul by himself, and he probably knows that he will die." The people in their hands are innocent, and it's a relief to do so."
Ye Yun shook her head and said, "I respect Uncle Ying Hai's choice, I just thought of another thing."
"What?"
"Uncle Ying Hai, although my father and I
Of the same generation, but he is much older. A pair of his children are my cousins. They participated in the secret realm trial with my father. After that, Uncle Ying Hai has The island disappeared. "
Mu Qing knew what "after that" meant. Ye Yun once said that in the secret realm trial more than 20 years ago, only three people successfully left the secret realm, and these three people later became the current three. The island owner.
Mu Qing looked at Wei Shenghua, and happened to meet her eyes, and couldn't help but ask: "Aunt Hua also remembered this matter?"
Wei Shenghua's mood was a little low, and she hummed: "In the last trial, if I hadn't been neglecting my job, I would probably have participated. That time, too many of the best young people from Mishima stayed in Mingquan Secret Realm forever. , if they are all still alive..."
Wei Shenghua paused, perhaps remembering her old friend, and then changed her tone, "The trial in Mingquan Secret Realm... is indeed cruel."
Mu Qingneng noticed that Wei Shenghua was hesitant to speak. For some reason, he suddenly remembered the secrets Ye Yun had mentioned to persuade him not to participate in the secret realm trial:
In the eyes of his father-in-law, the trial in Mingquan Secret Realm was more like an ancient sacrificial ritual, which would devour the flesh and blood of Mishima's children, over and over again, until the day it ended.
Mu Qing didn't think anything of it at the time, but now the more people he comes into contact with in the Three Islands, the more he feels that there is great terror hidden in it.
What kind of sacrificial ritual needs to last for so many years? What can be summoned when the sacrifice is successful?
Gu Yinghe, who had been very quiet next to him, rarely spoke at this time, "The writings left by the Wu clan once recorded such a thing: after the war of the gods ended, the victorious gods all concluded covenants with their dependents. ——The dependents receive the protection and inheritance of the gods, but what they need to pay is to protect a place where the law of heaven has collapsed from generation to generation."
"There is such a saying..." Mu Qing was very interested in this and looked at Gu Yinghe: "What does the Gu family protect?"
Gu Yinghe looked suffocated, and said rather helplessly: "The Witch Clan was defeated, and even their bloodline was cursed by heaven, but they can't enjoy the lingering shadow of the gods."
Mu Qing smiled awkwardly, but he also understood the meaning of Gu Yinghe's words, and agreed: "The existence of Mingquan Secret Realm may really be related to the collapse of Heavenly Dao."
"I heard Yun'er say that there is an abyss crack under the Mingquan Secret Realm. The people living on the three islands have guarded the secret realm for generations. Do they just want to use the secret realm to block this crack?"
Mu Qing looked at Wei Shenghua.
Wei Shenghua glanced at Ye Yun in surprise, her eyebrows slightly condensed, and after thinking for a long time, she slowly said: "The people on the island have known about the Black God Society since they can remember, and the teachings of the God Society are equivalent to the secular dynasty. The laws and decrees. But there was actually only one original decree, and that was "to block the abyss at all costs." "
Before Wei Shenghua finished speaking, he continued: "Actually, this original article is no longer in the current decree, but in the past two years, this news has slowly spread on the island. The elders in the Shenhui still had After trying to find out who leaked this matter, the Great Elder finally made the decision and added the original decree."
Mu Qing did not expect that something like this would happen on the Three Islands because of a decree, "My father-in-law seems to be a restless person."
Wei Shenghua smiled slightly: "Xiao Yun's bastard father is really annoying, but there are some things he did right."
Mu Qing didn't expect that Ying Que's name here at Wei Sheng Hua was so strange. Seeing that Ye Yun was used to it, he twitched the corner of his mouth and returned to the topic: "Aunt Hua, my uncle is really suspicious of the secret guard. My son and I Yun decided to investigate this matter together."
"Oh?" Wei Shenghua raised her eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you can still kill your relatives out of justice?"
Ye Yun knew that she was really sorry for Wei Shenghua, so she lowered her head and said, "Aunt Hua, if it's really my father, I will definitely stop him and stop him from making any more mistakes. Do you think that's okay?"
Wei Shenghua sighed and said helplessly: "Even if your father wanted to kill me, you still saved me... My attitude towards your father has never changed. If you really want to apologize for your father, I can write it later." Here’s a list for you.”
Ye Yun knew that those who died in the manor would be on the list.
He said solemnly: "Okay."
Seeing that the atmosphere between Ye Yun and Wei Shenghua finally eased, Wang Yeqing said, "Now that we have made this matter clear, let's leave for the island. Things will change later."
Mu Qing was a little embarrassed. Wang Yeqing didn't mention it. He almost forgot that this was the official business and asked, "Is there anything unusual at Fangguo's palace?"
"Yes." Wang Yeqing said, "Xiaoyun and I spent some time at Fangguo's palace. It was quieter than the manor, but there were a lot of guards secretly added in the direction facing the manor."
Wei Shenghua looked a little gloomy: "The royal family knows what's going on here, but they probably want to wait until dawn and come to the manor at the usual time so as to pretend they don't know anything."
Ye Yun stepped forward and held Wei Shenghua's hand, not knowing how to comfort her: "Aunt Hua."
Wei Shenghua smiled bitterly: "Xiao Yun, you should know by now that the royal families of the Three Kingdoms are actually related to our Three Islands by blood. Speaking of which, my Wei Sheng family and the Fang royal family are still the same family."
"But Sister Wang is right. Instead of punishing those who betrayed me, we should go back to the island as soon as possible. There are many people waiting for us there."
Mu Qing looked at Wang Yeqing with some admiration. They originally just wanted to find a boat to the island, but now only Wang Yeqing still remembers it.
Wang Yeqing said: "I just asked Miss Weisheng that the treasure ship she took when she came to Fang Kingdom is parked in the Royal Port. We have to drive away the ship before the royal family reacts."
Mu Qing recalled the reminder from the leader of the Wenxian Gang and felt a little strange: "To launch the treasure ship, why don't the three families work together? Even if Aunt Hua and Yun'er know their own formations, where is the sea map?"
Wei Shenghua smiled when she heard this and took out the token that Mu Qing was already very familiar with. "Actually, the charts we hold on this island are our own coordinates, and this one has always been the best chart."
"And..." Wei Shenghua looked at Ye Yun beside her, her slender eyebrows slightly raised and full of confidence: "Yun'er wanted to escape from the clutches of his bastard father, but in the end it was me who quietly drove her to the shore in a boat. I alone can control various formations on the "Wind Wind"! "
