After listening to Puyang's story, Xuan Ye finally understood.
It turns out that the murderer's real purpose is to steal the treasures in the treasure house, not to assassinate him.
Xue Tianhan and Huo Yuanji, who also knew about this, also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, since you are no longer in danger, we and I will go over to meet them." Xue Tianhan looked at several figures on the roof and said slowly.
Xuan Ye also looked at the figure on the roof, nodded slightly and said, "Well, be careful!"
After hearing this, Xue Tianhan and Huo Yuanji directly used Qing Kung, flew through the void, and landed on the roof of the building, behind Gongsun and others.
When they came over, they happened to hear Chen Yutian's words to Shi Dongji.
"It's a pity that you have put so much effort into this plan, and even took advantage of the Fifth Patriarch's appearance in Xiangzhou to lure my master, Ice King, and Yan Zun away from the capital. Alas..."
Hearing this, Xue Tianhan's eyes suddenly flashed!
Huo Yuanji was a little surprised and said, "What? Was my grandpa lured away from the capital by them? Speaking of which, brother Chen, how did you know that grandpa and the others left the capital for Xiangzhou?"
Hearing this, Chen Yutian smiled and said: "Actually, this was clearly stated in the letter my master left behind. However, he simply told me at the time that the reason why they went to Xiangzhou was because the Sword Master sent a message. It is said that traces of the fifth ancestor of the Futian Sect were found in Xiangzhou, so they went there to investigate."
"But now it seems that when they went to Xiangzhou, Futian Sect deliberately leaked their whereabouts to lure them away from the capital, because in this way, there would be no masters in the capital who could detect their actions."
Chen Yutian said and glanced at Shi Dongji.
Huo Yuanji also looked at the cave machine.
Then, as if he had discovered something rare, he blinked curiously and carefully observed the hole release machine.
Shi Dongji felt a chill.
The rest of the people were also speechless.
Finally, Huo Yuanji stopped watching. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "Who...are you?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Chen Yutian and Xue Tianhan also raised their foreheads slightly and looked at the sky.
Shi Dongji was also speechless.
But Huo Yuanji still continued to ask: "Who are you? Are you from the Futian Sect?"
Chen Yutian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said: "Brother Huo, maybe you have never seen this person, but you must have heard his name. He is the former member of Futian Sect - Shi Dongji."
Hearing this, Xue Tianhan was slightly surprised.
Huo Yuanji opened his eyes wide.
Just listen to him say: "So you are Shi Dongji. What? Your Futian Sect is very interested in the treasures here?"
Shi Dongji smiled slightly and said, "Indeed, we are indeed very interested in something here."
Huo Yuanji said: "Oh?"
Shi Dongji added: "Not only are we very interested in something like that, but it is also extremely important to us."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yutian took out the scroll in his hand and said with a smile: "It's a pity that you failed. No matter how important this thing is to you, you will never have the chance to take it away again."
Shi Dongji smiled and was noncommittal.
Chen Yutian then said: "In any case, your plan has completely failed."
This time, Shi Dongji nodded and said: "Indeed, our plan failed. However, I want to tell you, in fact, I did not come up with this plan."
Chen Yutian sneered: "Who came up with this plan, and does it have anything to do with me?"
Shi Dongji was not annoyed at all, and said with a smile: "This plan is actually a certificate of surrender thought up by a person who has just recently joined our Holy Cult. Do you really not want to know who that person is?"
Chen Yutian shook his head decisively: "I don't want to."
Shi Dongji completely ignored his reaction and continued: "Actually, when I came here to perform the mission, that person expected that I would meet you, so he asked me to bring you a message. Do you want to Do you know what those words are?"
Chen Yutian sneered: "Even if I say I don't want to, will you really not say it?"
Shi Dongji smiled and shook his head, saying, "Of course not."
Chen Yutian said: "In that case, isn't everything I say useless? If it's useless, why do I still say it?"
Shi Dongji was startled when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "That's right. That person asked me to bring you only one sentence: This time, I finally beat you."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian's eyes flashed and he raised his head to look at the cave machine.
Shi Dongji smiled and said: "However, in my opinion, this sentence should be changed to this: This time, I am finally on an equal footing with you."
After hearing this, Chen Yutian's expression changed, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Evenly divided? You are now my prisoner, and the treasures you stole from the treasure house are now in my hands. How can such a result be called... Is it evenly matched? It should be a complete defeat!"
Hearing this, Shi Dongji burst into laughter.
He laughed so loudly that almost everyone in the square could hear him clearly. He also smiled happily, and his laughter contained a kind of happiness that came from the heart.
"Hahaha……"
Listening to his laughter, Chen Yutian frowned. For some reason, after hearing the laughter, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
He asked: "Why are you laughing?"
Shi Dongji said: "Chen Yutian, do you really think that I am really your prisoner?"
Chen Yutian frowned and said, "Isn't it?"
"You are too naive!" Shi Dongji suddenly sneered.
The ominous feeling in Chen Yutian's heart became stronger and stronger. He looked at the forbidden lock on Shi Dongji's hand and felt slightly relieved.
"You still have my forbidden lock on your hand, so you can't use any internal power. Is it possible for you to escape in such a state?"
Shi Dongji smiled and said: "Forbidden Lock? This thing is indeed a good thing. But since you own the Forbidden Lock, you must have heard of the Void Button, right?"
"Void button?" Chen Yutian's expression changed.
Almost at the same time, Shi Dongji sneered, and with his hands controlled by the lock, he tore off a button from his clothes and threw it into the void.
"No, stop him quickly!"
Chen Yutian shouted, but it was already too late.
The button suddenly flashed an extremely dazzling light in the void, and then, the void seemed to twist, forming a black vortex above the head of Shi Dongji.
The vortex erupted with a terrifying suction force, sucking the hole release machine directly into it and disappearing.
"Haha...Chen Yutian, thank you for the ban, we will see you later..."
Shi Dongji laughed loudly before leaving, and his laughter still echoed in the empty night sky after he left.
Chen Yutian and others could only watch him leave, but were unable to react and stop his behavior.
Because all of this happens in the blink of an eye.
After he left, Wu Dongtian waved his fists hatefully and cursed: "Damn, how careless! I didn't expect to let him run away like this."
Chen Yutian smiled bitterly: "There is nothing we can do about this. Who can make the other party actually have such a thing as a void button? But fortunately, at least the treasures in the treasure house have not been stolen by him."
With that said, Chen Yutian opened the golden scroll in his hand.
However, the next moment, he froze on the spot.
I saw only one sentence written on the scroll: "Brother Chen, thank you for your hard work! This thing is given to Brother Chen as a condolence gift!"
Obviously, this scroll was forged by Shidongji.
Looking at the scroll, Chen Yutian sighed.
He finally understood why Shi Dongji was smiling so happily just now.
It turns out that it was not the other party who suffered a complete defeat this time, but... themselves!
