Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi came to the foot of the mountain and happened to catch up with Ling Xiaowu to capture Wu Chengtian.
Looking at Wu Chengtian who was unconscious but without any life damage, Chen Yutian took a deep look at Ling Xiaowu.
After all, no matter from which aspect, Wu Chengtian can be regarded as the culprit who destroyed the Feng family that year. He is the enemy that Ling Xiaowu wants to kill no matter what. Logically speaking, if Wu Chengtian falls into his hands, the end should be like that. That's right.
But right now, Wu Chengtian is still intact.
This couldn't help but make Chen Yutian take another high look at Ling Xiaowu.
"No need to be surprised. I just feel that even if I hand him over to you, he will not escape death based on the things he has done. In this case, why should I dirty my hands? It's just..."
Ling Xiaowu seemed to see through Chen Yutian's thoughts and spoke to him. Halfway through, he suddenly turned his eyes to the side and looked at Mrs. Wu who fell into a coma and was carried back by Yu Xiaoxiao.
"I'm sorry for this madam..."
Mrs. Wu was not knocked unconscious by them, but fainted from fear after Wu Chengtian was subdued by him.
Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi also followed his gaze and saw Mrs. Wu.
Then the two of them sighed in unison.
Then Xuan Xi took the initiative to walk to Yu Xiaoxiao and took care of Mrs. Wu with her.
They should not judge her marriage to Wu Chengtian arbitrarily, and judging from how Wu Chengtian had to protect her behind him when facing a powerful enemy just now, it was obvious that Wu Chengtian had feelings for her.
They should be in love with each other.
But even if there is love, the fact that Wu Chengtian killed people will never change, and he will eventually face the punishment of the law. But this is undoubtedly a deep harm to Mrs. Wu.
What does it really mean for a woman to be separated from the person she loves twice in life and death?
Chen Yutian didn't know, and neither did Ling Xiaowu, but Yu Xiaoxiao knew that Xuan Xi could also vaguely understand it, because they were both women, and because they already had someone worth loving in their hearts.
So they can understand Mrs. Wu's mood.
But while Chen Yutian and Ling Xiaowu were speechless, a cry of surprise came from the side.
"Wow……"
Chen Yutian frowned slightly, then turned his gaze to the side, and saw that Tang Fengling had already opened the box that he had snatched from the Futian Sect, and her eyes were really looking at the contents of the box, her face filled with emotion. They are all incredibly surprising colors.
The other people around him also had the same expression.
Chen Yutian was curious as to what kind of things were contained in a box that could make everyone look like this...
Ling Xiaowu also looked at everyone with a hint of interest.
I saw Wu Dongtian at the back gently rubbing his eyes with his hands, looking at the opened box, and said in surprise: "I... I read it right, this... this is..."
"You...you read that right, we really got a treasure this time..." Tang Fengling swallowed slightly, looking at the box without moving, and said seriously.
Even Xue Tianhan, who had always been calm, had a look of disbelief on his face at this moment.
"I didn't expect it to be these things..." Gongsun was the first to recover from his surprise, with a touch of uncontrollable ecstasy in his eyes, "This should be all the remaining pictures in their hands, plus the original ones in our hands. By the way, the remaining pictures of the Nine Snakes Society should have been collected..."
"What?"
Hearing these words, Chen Yutian, Xuan Xi, Taiyi Tianfu and others were shocked. Chen Yutian came to the crowd as quickly as possible. After seeing the contents of the box, he was suddenly stunned! !
In the box, there are a total of eight irregular pieces of paper. There are some crisscross lines drawn on each copy, and some have only half of the writing. It is basically the same as the fragment found in the painting.
Chen Yutian stared blankly at the broken pictures in the box. He never thought that these things would be what he snatched from the Futian Sect. No wonder Ye Hong and Shi Dongji were so crazy about taking back the box.
But...that's a good thing.
Chen Yutian can confirm whether the residual pictures are true or false without looking at them. These residual pictures are indeed the ones in the hands of the Nine Snakes Society. With these residual pictures, the key to the Holy Land of the Wind Clan that was buried by the Nine Snakes Society can be found. , and other relics of the Feng family will eventually see the light of day again. And the Holy Land of the Wind Clan, which had been sealed as the years of the Holy Martial Arts were shattered, would also be revealed in front of them in the near future.
And since the Futian Sect has lost these residual maps, their plot to plan the Wind Clan's Holy Land will also come to nothing. This is indeed a good sign for Jiulong Mansion, which is on the opposite side.
"Hahaha..." After a long time, Chen Yutian suddenly laughed excitedly.
The people in the Jiulong Mansion around him looked at his behavior that was not in line with his usual behavior and said nothing, because their hearts were almost as excited as Chen Yutian at this moment.
"I didn't expect that even God would help us this time..." After laughing, Chen Yutian said happily, "In this case, we can't live up to God's blessing. Now that the nine residual pictures have been collected, it is time to put them together The property has returned to its original owner.”
After saying that, Chen Yutian directly handed over the eight fragments of the picture in the box, as well as the ninth fragment of the picture that he carried with him, to Ling Xiaowu who was standing behind him.
This unexpected move made everyone present stunned.
Ling Xiaowu was also completely stunned on the spot, looking at the box that Chen Yutian handed to him, with a bitter smile on his face.
"Brother Chen, what do you mean..."
"Brother Ling, the treasure places recorded on this map are all the treasures that these bandits took away from the Feng family. Since you are the only descendant of the Feng family, these things should belong to you." Chen Yutian looked at it. Looking at Ling Xiaowu, he said extremely seriously.
"But among them is the key to the Wind Clan's Holy Land. Isn't this what you want most?" Ling Xiaowu said.
Hearing his words, Chen Yutian couldn't help but smile. He did not mention the Feng Clan in front of Ling Xiaowu. At most, he only mentioned the Feng Family. Ling Xiaowu's words undoubtedly admitted that he was a descendant of the Feng Clan, one of the eight holy clans in Shengwu's time.
"No, that has never been our purpose in getting involved in this matter. Our real purpose is just to catch the murderer who caused the murder. As for the story behind the case, it has nothing to do with us."
"But you obviously know what's going on behind the eight holy clans, and you've also said before that you've been to the Sealing Dragon Palace?"
"Yes, we did enter the Sealing Dragon Palace, but that was because Yuanji and Feifei were captured by the Futian Sect. We took the risk and broke in in order to save them." Xuan Xi frowned and looked at Ling Xiaowu, "We We have never wanted to take advantage of the eight holy clans. The people who really want to take advantage of your Holy Land are the Futian Sect who were scared away by us just now. We just don’t want their conspiracy to succeed and lead to chaos in the world, so we do this. Intervene in the affairs of the saints."
Hearing this, Ling Xiaowu fell silent.
Behind him, Yu Xiaoxiao, Liu Huangcui and the others also looked at the people in Jiulong Mansion in slight silence, with a hint of apology in their eyes.
They knew that they had misunderstood the people in front of them. They thought that these people, like the Futian Sect, were jealous of the Eight Holy Lands by intervening in the affairs of the Eight Holy Clan. I want to enter the holy land so that my skills can be improved.
But Chen Yutian told them with actions that they were wrong.
Returning the obtained residual map to Ling Xiaowu without hesitation fully demonstrated Jiulong Mansion's attitude, and Xuan Xi's words proved how ridiculous their suspicions were.
"So... it seems that I was rude, Brother Chen, please forgive me if there was any offense just now..."
Chen Yutian smiled slightly and handed the box in Ling Xiaowu's hand, "It's nothing. I know what you are worried about. Don't worry. Just like Xuan Xi said, the person who really covets the Holy Land is the Futian Sect. , they want to recreate the glory of the holy martial arts years through the Eight Holy Lands, and they can be said to be the enemy of the entire martial arts forest and even the entire world."
"What? Are they actually planning to do this?" After hearing Chen Yutian's words, Ling Xiaowu's expression suddenly changed. At this moment, he seemed to recall a memory that he had long forgotten.
That was when he was young. One day, a friend of his father came to Feng Mansion to meet him. He remembered that that person seemed to be very close to his father. However, during that meeting, his father had a strange quarrel with that person, and in the end Parted on bad terms.
After the man left, Ling Xiaowu went to visit his father and asked him very puzzledly, why did he quarrel with that uncle?
The father was very unhappy at the time. After looking at Ling Xiaowu for a long time, he sighed slowly, "It's nothing. He went the wrong way. I wanted to pull him back, but I failed..."
At that time, Ling Xiaowu did not understand his father's words, but his father did not let him understand. Instead, he took him to the ancestral hall, which was almost a forbidden place in the mansion. It was there that he first learned the secret that the Feng family belonged to the Feng clan. At the same time, he also knew what the other seven saint clans among the eight saint clans were. I even remember that my father emphatically mentioned that the uncle he was quarreling with was a member of the Time Clan, one of the eight holy races of time and space.
Ling Xiaowu had long forgotten this memory, but for some unknown reason, he suddenly remembered it after Chen Yutian talked about the purpose of the Futian Sect.
Because he remembered what his father said to him last that day, that uncle wanted to restore the glory of the past...
Chen Yutian did not notice the change in Ling Xiaowu's expression at this moment. At this moment, he would never have thought that this unintentional neglect would cause him to take countless detours in the future.
He took out a jade pendant from his arms.
This jade pendant was accidentally discovered in the baggage left by Meng Xingyun when he searched his room in Yuelai Old Store. Because it had the word "Wind and Rain" written on it, Chen Yutian thought it was a legacy of the Feng family. Treasure, put it away.
It wasn't until this moment that he took it out again.
"By the way, there is this thing. There is the word 'Wind and Rain' on this thing. It must also belong to the Feng family. It should be returned to its original owner now." Chen Yutian handed the jade pendant to Ling Xiaowu.
When Ling Xiaowu heard the word "Wind and Rain" on the jade pendant, his eyes suddenly lit up. When he saw the jade plaque in Chen Yutian's hand, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in his eyes!
"This..." He was slightly startled, and then took the jade pendant from Chen Yutian's hand.
Seeing him take the jade pendant, Chen Yutian smiled slightly, then stretched out, looked at the arrested murderer Wu Chengtian, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Okay, now things are finally perfect. It’s solved, let’s go back next…”
Everyone in Jiulong Mansion looked at his appearance and nodded happily.
On the other side, Ling Xiaowu looked at the jade pendant with the word "Wind and Rain" engraved on it in his hand, with a rare look of contemplation on his face. After a moment, his eyes stayed on Yu Xiaoxiao for a moment, and then looked at the people of Jiulong Mansion who were already preparing to go back. .
"Brother Chen, please don't leave, I have something to tell you!!"
Everyone in Jiulong Mansion looked back at him, all a little strange. Chen Yutian even smiled and said: "Brother Ling is too polite. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Ling Xiaowu took a deep breath, and after his eyes flickered for a few times, he finally made a decision! !
"I have to tell you this, but before I tell you, make sure you can bear it."
Everyone in Jiulong Mansion looked at me and I looked at you. They were all confused and couldn't understand what Ling Xiaowu meant by this.
"Brother Ling, if you have anything to say, just say it. We can all bear it."
"In that case, let me say..." Ling Xiaowu nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and said the most unbelievable words, "Actually, this jade pendant is the key to the Wind Clan's Holy Land. But to be precise, it should be the Holy Land of Wind and Rain, because that holy land not only belongs to the Wind Clan, but also to the Rain Clan, one of the eight holy clans.
…
…
In the vast wilderness, Ye Hong and Shi Dongji hurried forward with many Futian Sect members who had fled.
Suddenly, two figures in front of them descended from the sky. They looked at the Futian Sect members who had withdrawn from the barren mountain and nodded slightly. They were the fourth and eighth ancestors who had fought against the Dragon Lord Sword Master before, but they suddenly appeared here for some unknown reason.
"My subordinates join the Fourth Patriarch, Lord Eighth Patriarch!" Ye Hong and Shi Dongji saluted quickly.
The Fourth Patriarch waved his hand slightly, "Forget it. How is the plan going?"
"As far as the Fourth Ancestor is concerned, the plan is going very smoothly. The eight fragmentary maps have been handed over to the Jiulong Mansion. The next step is to see if they have the courage to open the Wind and Rain Holy Land." Ye Hong said.
"Very good." The Fourth Ancestor smiled slightly and looked into the distance with his deep gaze, as if he could see the people of Jiulong Mansion who were still there through the void.
"The mantis stalks the cicada, with the oriole behind. They defeated them last time. This time, it's time to let them have a taste of being a mantis..." After that, he waved his hand gently, "Let's go back first. …”
