Zhao Yanbei has been the head of the Zhao family for many years, leading the Zhao family, which has no foundation-building monks, to fight against other families. He relies not only on his perfect cultivation of Qi, but also on his ability to judge the situation and adapt to the situation.
Knowing that Xiao Hai, the head of Shuangfeng Valley, had a murderous intention, he did not dare to intercede for Zhao Renlong at all. It is better for Zhao Renlong to suffer disaster than for the entire Zhao family to be angered.
Xiao Haisheng didn't have so many scruples about the vassal forces under his subordinates.
He was too lazy to continue interrogating Zhao Renlong and started searching for souls directly.
Soul-searching is a vicious method that many monks in the foundation-building stage will use, but it is generally not abused. Because the subject whose soul is being searched may become insane and become an idiot afterwards, or even die directly.
Xiao Haisheng, who was burning with anger, pressed Zhao Renlong's head with one palm and activated the soul-searching technique.
Scenes appeared in Xiao Haisheng's mind, including many private matters of the Zhao family.
Xiao Haisheng was not interested in the Zhao family's nonsense. He mainly wanted to know how Zhao Renlong obtained this small foundation-building pill.
Zhao Renlong did not lie, this small Foundation Establishment Pill was indeed picked up. He didn't know the origin of this small Foundation Establishment Pill, and he had never come into contact with Xiao Shenqiang.
After the soul search was completed, Zhao Renlong, who was old and frail, did not carry it through and lost his life directly.
Xiao Haisheng casually threw Zhao Renlong's body to the ground and began to think in his mind.
Everyone in the Zhao family saw the tragic end of their elders out of the corners of their eyes, and felt a sense of sadness in their hearts. The deep sadness made them feel very blocked.
However, not only did they not dare to show any dissatisfaction, they did not even have the courage to take a second look at their elders.
This is the sorrow of the weak and the fate of the weak.
A series of things made Xiao Haisheng calm down, something was wrong.
If Xiao Shenqiang's death had nothing to do with the three Ji Zhu and his followers, then who was the murderer of Xiao Shenqiang? What is the purpose of the other party doing this?
As the leader of a force, Xiao Haisheng, who was accustomed to all kinds of intrigues and intrigues in the world of cultivation, had a bold idea in his mind.
Could it be that someone wants to sow discord between Shuangfenggu and Qingzhushan, the Liu family and Lin Quanguan, and provoke conflict between the two parties?
Using the Liu family's cold poison and thunder to kill someone was clearly to blame the Liu family. Throwing Xiao Shenqiang's belongings around and letting monks from major forces pick them up was to cause internal chaos in Shuangfeng Valley, and to make Shuangfeng Valley hostile to other forces.
Xiao Haisheng, who was full of conspiracy theories, began to search for some hostile forces in Shuangfeng Valley.
Using the Cold Poison Yin Thunder was the only way Meng Zhang could harm the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He just did some things to confuse the public out of his own instinct of self-preservation. He would never have expected that this would make Xiao Haisheng conjure up a bunch of conspiracies against Shuangfenggu.
How this matter ended made Xiao Haisheng feel a little headache.
Xiao Haisheng was really embarrassed to have just sworn that the Liu family was the murderer, but was about to change his story and say that Xiao Shenqiang's death had nothing to do with the Liu family. Moreover, Xiao Shenqiang is the elder of Shuangfenggu. There must be an explanation for his death.
Just when Xiao Haisheng was suspicious and in a dilemma, a cyan flying boat appeared in the distant sky and drove towards here at high speed.
The flying boat soon arrived not far ahead. Two figures flew out from the flying boat and came to Xiao Haisheng.
Seeing the arrival of these two people, Liu Dachuan and Old Man Zhuzhang were filled with joy, while the monks on the Shuangfeng Valley side all put on alert postures.
"Liu Dajiang, Zhujian, you two came quite quickly." Xiao Haisheng said disdainfully.
"After receiving a distress message from brothers of the same clan, Dajiang did not dare to delay. If Dachuan offends Master Xiao in any way, I hope that Master Xiao will not argue with Dachuan."
Liu Dajiang was still very polite to Xiao Haisheng.
Liu Dajiang has a cultivation level in the middle stage of foundation building. Not only is he one of the Liu family's top masters, but he is also the Liu family's eldest elder. The power and status within the Liu family are superior to Liu Dachuan.
Zhujian is a middle-aged man with a cold face. Although he is much younger than the old man with a bamboo stick, his cultivation level is far above that of the old man with a bamboo stick.
As one of the top masters in Qingzhu Mountain, Bamboo Sword is only in the middle stage of foundation building, but he is not afraid of Xiao Haisheng, a great master in the late stage of foundation building.
Bamboo Sword raised his hand to Xiao Haisheng as a greeting. He was not good at words, so he left the communication matters to Liu Dajiang.
At least at this moment, facing the powerful Xiao Haisheng, Qingzhushan, Liu Family and Lin Quanguan are on the same front.
Xiao Haisheng knew that when he found the three guys on the opposite side, he must have secretly sent a signal to his fellow disciples.
Now, the person who received the distress call has arrived. If the entanglement continues, more reinforcements from the three forces may arrive.
Xiao Haisheng was used to being strong but was unwilling to give in easily. This would make everyone look down on him and make him feel that he could not withstand the pressure from the three families.
As a result, the two sides began to stalemate again.
Xiao Haisheng said very forcefully that those monks in the Qi refining period who picked up Xiao Shenqiang's items must be soul-searched and interrogated.
With three foundation-building-stage monks present, how could they let their own Qi-refining-stage monks go through such torture? They all opposed Xiao Haisheng and rebutted fiercely.
The two sides argued for a long time, refusing to give in to each other.
In the end, it was Taoist Guanghong from Lin Quanguan who was the first to give in verbally and expressed his willingness to help Shuangfenggu track down the murderer. Then both the Liu family and Qingzhushan had to make a verbal promise that they were willing to contribute to this matter, and that they would severely punish the monks in the Qi refining period who picked up Xiao Shenqiang's items after they returned, and the matter was finally settled temporarily.
Seeing the foundation-building monks from the three families leaving with all their disciples, Xiao Haisheng was still angry. He also knew in his heart that there was no point in continuing to struggle.
Xiao Haisheng called Shan Ying to his house and gave a few instructions before he left with a group of disciples.
Shan Ying came to the remaining people and announced a series of penalty decisions.
All those cultivators who picked up Xiao Shenqiang's items and did not take the initiative to report them were severely punished.
Among them, although Zhao Renlong of the Zhao family died, all the monks present in the Zhao family were punished and went to Mingsha Mountain to perform hard labor for three years.
They knew that Shuangfenggu was expressing his anger, but everyone in the Zhao family had no idea or ability to resist.
The monks from other vassal forces were quickly dismissed.
Meng Zhang was secretly glad that he finally escaped this disaster.
Fortunately, he was not greedy and voluntarily gave up the items in Xiao Shenqiang's storage bag and found a way to muddy the water.
Especially when the monks from the Liu family and other powerful forces were involved in this matter, and Xiao Haisheng was put on the defensive, it was relatively easy to let the matter go.
