As soon as the Master of Qianxing Hall said these words, Wei Qing and Luo Mingsheng stopped at the same time.
Luo Mingsheng turned around and took a deep look at the palace master, snorted coldly, and left quickly.
In a moment, all the elders in the palace left. Wei Qing's tense face suddenly darkened: "Brother, do you really believe what Kui Yuan said?"
The Master of Qianxing Palace's eyes flashed, "Do you suspect that Supreme Wan Jian did it?"
Wei Qing nodded immediately: "Senior brother, Kui Yuan is also from the Demon Palace. Maybe the demon energy in the fragments belongs to Kui Yuan. All of this was directed and acted by Supreme Wan Jian!"
The Master of Qianxing Palace snorted softly upon hearing this, "You can think of the flaw, how can I not see it?"
Wei Qing was stunned for a moment.
"That Kui Yuan is not a demon cultivator."
The Master of Qianxing Palace's eyes flashed, "The true energy that surges when this person performs his movements is sharp and awe-inspiring, and is not contaminated by the evil spirit of the devil."...
"Not a demon cultivator?"
Wei Qing was stunned, "Doesn't that mean that the theft of the incense was really caused by the Demon Palace?"
The master of Qianxing Palace did not answer, and he was also a little undecided.
Wei Lexheng had fought side by side with the Supreme Master of Wanjian Sect before. He was indeed a swordsman. His swordsmanship was pure and there was no way he would fall into the devil's path.
If she really stole the incense, the viciousness of the demonic cultivator in the fragments would be difficult to explain.
It only took half a day from the time the incense was stolen to Kui Yuan's visit. Nowadays, traces of demon cultivators are rare. It is impossible for her to find a demon cultivator to cooperate in such a short period of time.
Otherwise, she herself would have an unclear relationship with the Demon Palace.
But such speculation does not make sense with the fact that this person destroyed the stronghold of the Demon Palace two years ago. No matter how magnanimous the master of the Demon Palace is, it is impossible to cooperate with an enemy who killed thousands of his palace members.
Taking a step back, that little girl Luo Shu was just an ordinary disciple who had only been in the school for three years, so she would not have caused the Supreme Master of Wanjian Sect to go to such great lengths to rescue her.
After all the unreasonable things were eliminated, only the last possibility remained - the person who stole the incense really belonged to the Demon Palace. It was really a coincidence that Supreme Master Wan Jianmen met this person.
Therefore, he would gently expose the matter and let Kui Yuan leave.
But after thinking about it, he always felt that there was a layer of fog in front of his eyes, and he seemed to be unable to really see the matter clearly.
But when I really cared about it, I felt that I was overthinking it.
The master of Qianxing Palace sighed softly.
The twists and turns involved are obviously not something simple-minded people like Wei Qing can sort out.
He rubbed his brows and continued: "The theft of the incense has become an established fact. Now if we go to pursue the Demon Palace, but based on the words of the Wanjianmen, the other party will only deny it, which is of little significance."
Wei Qing's face turned ugly when he heard this, "Then we just give up?"
"The matter hasn't been finalized yet, so why give up."
The master of Qianxing Palace's eyes were stern, "Without the incense, we lose the capital to continue negotiating with the underworld. It's better to find another way."
"Brother, have you thought of a way to deal with it?"
Wei Qing's eyes brightened slightly, "What should we do next? I will listen to you."
"..."
While the two masters of the Qianxing Palace were discussing the response, Xiang Shu and his party had also returned to Changyan Peak. Also coming with them was the leader surnamed Luo, Luo Qingyun's father, Luo Mingsheng.
"Kid, are you okay?"
Master Chang Yan stretched out his hand to comb Xiang Shen's messy hair and looked at her pitiful little face. His heart felt as if he had been pricked by needles. "Don't worry, Master will protect you even if he risks his life." comprehensive."
Xiang Shu looked at the guilty face of the old man in front of him, remained silent for a moment, and said softly: "Master, don't worry, Shu'er is fine."
Master Chang Yan's heart trembled slightly. This silly boy was so frightened just now, yet he actually comforted himself.
"Good boy."
He held back tears and waved his hand, "Tang Yin, take Shu'er to the side hall to rest first, and stay with her every step of the way. I'll have someone prepare a soothing decoction."
"Yes, Master.
"
Tang Yin knew that the master wanted to talk about business, so she responded and took Xiang Shen away.
After explaining the matter, Master Chang Yan turned his attention to Luo Mingsheng, "Junior brother Luo, come with me."
Luo Mingsheng came with him, originally wanting to get close to Luo Shen, his granddaughter, but he didn't expect that Master Chang Yan would have business with him, so he immediately followed Chang Yan into the inner hall.
As soon as he entered, he saw that the shelf where the Sky Monitoring Mirror was placed in the inner hall was empty.
He was stunned for a moment, then saw Senior Brother Chang Yan raising his hand to remove the illusory formation covering the roof. He looked up and saw a bright hole in the roof of the inner hall.
Luo Mingsheng immediately realized that the matter was not simple and couldn't help but swallowed, "Senior Brother Changyan, what is going on?"
Master Chang Yan waved his sleeves and asked Luo Mingsheng to sit down. He did not hide anything and said bluntly: "Just when the incense in the secret palace was stolen, the Supervising Sky Mirror ran away on its own."
Luo Mingsheng was stunned: "What do you mean you ran away?"
"That's what it means literally."
There was actually a smile on Master Chang Yan's old face at this moment, "It was right in front of me, it broke through the roof on its own and flew out."
Luo Mingsheng looked at the smile on his senior brother's face, and his mind suddenly became confused.
He also knows the theory of blood signs in the Sky Supervisor Mirror, and combined with what happened today, the amount of information is too much.
After a long time, he managed to clear up his thoughts, and his voice softened subconsciously: "Senior brother, you have known for a long time that there is something not simple behind this matter? Were you just faking it in the main peak hall?"
"It's not all pretense."
Master Chang Yan sighed repeatedly, "That little girl Luo Sheng suffered such an unreasonable disaster. I was really angry and almost told the story about the Heavenly Mirror."
Luo Mingsheng opened his mouth, but found that he was shocked and didn't know what to say. In his eyes, the senior brother who has always been honest and tolerant turns out to have another side behind his back.
He stroked his beard and thought, "So, the theft of the incense must not be as simple as it seems on the surface, and it is inseparable from the Supreme Master of the Wanjian Sect."
He frowned, "Could it be that the Supreme Leader of Wanjian Sect is from the Demon Palace?"
"No."
Master Chang Yan chuckled, "Junior brother and I have completely different views. The Sky Monitoring Mirror is an ancient treasure, and it was originally created to fortune-tell and avoid misfortune.
The signs of world destruction have been revealed before, but there has been no movement. Any change in this life must mean that things have turned around. No matter where this mirror is now, it is a good thing. "
Luo Mingsheng suddenly understood, and suddenly showed a bit of joy, "That's good, that's good... God still bless me in Dongzhou."
Chang Yan didn't refute when he heard the words, but he sighed softly in his heart. If it is really God's blessing, why do we need strange people to save the world?
He knew that Luo Mingsheng was not good at deduction, and even if he said some words, it would only increase his displeasure, so he simply did not say anything.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked: "Junior brother, do you feel that Junior Brother Li has changed over the years?"
"Palace Master?"
Luo Mingsheng was startled, shook his head and said: "Although Junior Brother Li and we are under the same sect, I have not had much contact with him. Whether his personality has changed or not, I can't say, but..."
Luo Mingsheng paused for a moment, and his face became a little more gloomy: "He is too close to Wei Qing, and his attitude toward the two major surnames in the sect is biased. In the past, it was just a small friction. The disciples competed with each other, which was beneficial to the sect. harmless.
But this time, I really can’t understand how Qingyun came back to fan the flames in order to suppress your right to speak in the sect, Senior Brother. What good will this do to him? "
"Junior Brother Li and Junior Brother Wei have grown up together, so it is normal for them to be close to each other."
Master Chang Yan sighed softly: "I know that my temper is too gentle and my power is not enough, so I asked myself not to take the position of the master of the palace in front of my master.
Although Junior Brother Li is young, he is superior to me in terms of talent, cultivation, kindness, power, and overall vision. I have always felt that it is most suitable for him to assume the position of Palace Master.
But his actions in the past two years have been too ruthless. It’s just a matter of life and death among the sects. The same is true within the sect. There is no affection between the new disciples.
Where does the theory of cohesion come from? "
Chang Yan took a deep breath, "It was a mistake to give in back then."
"Brother, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault."
Luo Mingsheng snorted coldly: "It can only be said that Junior Brother Li's nature is like this, but Master, he is still alive. If the real thing cannot be done, I and other unfilial disciples can ask him to take the trouble to correct it."
Chang Yan sighed, "That's all it can do."
Xiang Shu followed Tang Yin to the side hall, drank the soothing decoction, and fell asleep immediately.
It's just a soothing drug, but of course it won't make her really fall asleep.
Having walked in front of the Master of Qianxing Hall, she had arranged for Kui Yuan in advance, so it was a near miss. But at this point in the matter, she was not really safe.
The master of Qianxing Hall has been in charge of the sect for many years. He can suppress the Luo and Wei surnames and is not low-minded. His arrangement is quite coincidental. He must still be suspicious.
If she leaves in a hurry, she will definitely see the flaws, but if she stays here for a long time and fails to keep the appointment she has discussed with Jiang Yi and others to "invite you to the urn", her identity will be in danger of being exposed.
Her mind was spinning, and her right hand under the quilt gently took out the jade pendant for communication.
Tang Yin stayed by her side, no one else would come for the time being, so she rested her mind on the messenger jade pendant.
Jiang Yi was arranging his men to spread the news when he felt the vibration of the jade pendant. He immediately dismissed his men and turned around to enter the inner hall.
"Fellow Daoist Si, it's rare to see you contact me repeatedly."
Xiang Shu: "Do you, Daoyou Jiang, still remember the attack on Zuo Jing two years ago?"
Jiang Yi: "Of course I remember. Fortunately, my Taoist friends helped me, otherwise I wouldn't have had a right-hand man around me."
Xiang Shu: "Two years ago, Fengyue Sect eliminated a traitor. Fellow Taoist, do you think there are still traitors in your sect now?"
"Of course there is."
Jiang Yi replied resolutely, "And if the purge is hidden deeper, even I will have a hard time finding it."
Xiang Shen: "Then let me ask one more question, has your sect leader ever asked fellow Taoists for higher-level cultivation methods?"
Jiang Yi frowned slightly, "Of course I have to pass, but what I learned in my previous life is secret and can only be taught to fellow disciples. If fellow Taoists want to learn, they need to become my disciple in Echo Valley."
"I understand your kindness, Daojiang Jiang. Since I have already practiced swordsmanship, how can I switch to other subjects?"
Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly: "What does that fellow Taoist mean..."
"Fellow Daoist Jiang should understand what I mean."
Xiang Shen spoke thoughtfully: "The plan of inviting you to enter the urn must be changed, otherwise it will not be the devil's palace but us who will be invited to the urn."
