Most of the politicians who were watching the battle had already withdrew their eyes when they saw Ma En holding the golden elixir, and were ready to express their half-understood opinions and opinions on this battle, but at this moment they suddenly heard Du Jin's full voice. Screams of resentment and fear.
Mahn killed him.
Many politicians suddenly didn't seem to know what to say and could only stand there and look at each other. Then they turned their attention to Kang Shouxing, who was in charge of personnel dispatch. Kang Shouxing turned directly to look at the shadow who had not yet responded.
"Is he really dead?" Kang Shouxing asked uncertainly, and now he was still doubting whether he had correctly understood what he saw.
Shadow looked at him and nodded:
"You may not be able to see it, but Du Jin just wanted to kill Ma En for some reason, and after saying that it was just a discussion, he secretly attacked Ma En and wanted to kill him while Ma En lowered his guard, so he Then he killed Du Jin with his backhand."
Before the other politicians said anything, a dissatisfied woman came from behind them:
"I did not see that Du Jin wanted to kill Ma En, but we all saw that Ma En had just subdued Du Jin, and he did it without consulting us. We still don't know why Du Jin was killed. Jin wanted to kill him, maybe he was actually bewitched and manipulated by someone, but this Ma En did it without even thinking.
"Do you really know how to work for the Federation as a fool who joined the Salvation League, Shadow?"
The woman who spoke slowly walked out of the crowd. She was a middle-aged woman with a gloomy face. Her appearance looked like a well-maintained woman in her forties, but Shadow knew that she was now close to sixty years old. .
This woman is Shu Yun's mother, Councilor Tang Jinghong, who holds the same high position as her husband.
It was clear that what she was saying now was laced with resentment over her daughter's assassination.
Shadow smiled and said to the politicians who were truly qualified to talk to him:
"On the contrary, Man considered our situation.
"Actually, I almost intervened when Du Jin was about to kill Ma En. But I didn't really go in because Ma En and I sensed the situation through our hearts at the time and you didn't even realize it. The conversation took place below.
"And he asked me if he could kill Du Jin."
Apparently, he answered in the affirmative.
Upon hearing this, most of the politicians present changed their expressions, deliberately showing their dissatisfaction with Shadow's decision, but about a third of the politicians had no expression on their faces. Judging from Shadow's experience, this reaction is basically the same. There is no problem.
And most of the politicians whose expressions changed did so just out of courtesy to Tang Jinghong.
Tang Jinghong immediately asked Shadow:
"I highly doubt whether you are telling the truth. From what I know about you, you are probably just making up lies to protect your own people."
Shadow said indifferently:
"Then you can apply for an investigation against me, but after you get the evidence, I advise you not to take your suspicion seriously."
It was indeed what she said she would do, but this time it was Ma En who actually asked him.
Although even if Ma En did not do this, he would speak for him in front of these politicians to suppress the matter, but this also made him aware of Ma En's decisiveness and caution. He did not give in when others showed their murderous intentions. , but there was no rush for revenge.
He chose to consult "professionals" for advice. If he said he couldn't kill him, or couldn't kill him now, Ma En would definitely stop there and choose his own approach based on the information he gave. From this point of view, he was not That kind of arrogant guy.
If you really want to recruit Ma En, you will definitely ask him in advance when you see him and you will definitely value him more.
Tang Jinghong skipped the topic just now and then asked:
"Don't you know that behind him is a Level V ability user from the Federation? He is a young man who cannot think. Don't you think that this might offend a Level V ability user? The entire Federation will fight for your safety. Recklessly taking unnecessary losses.”
Shadow said indifferently:
"I didn't kill him, and we didn't give him any assassination plan.
"This is the discussion proposed by Du Jin. Since he has already struck a cruel blow first, we can't blame Ma En for 'accidentally' killing him. And then again, he killed our people first, and you still..." Are you thinking about the prisoner's feelings?
"What do you think we are? The Salvation League?
"We are a federation."
Tang Jinghong said with a pulled face:
"You know what Xiaoyao means to us. The precious information behind him makes his value far beyond his combat power. What we are talking about now is not just a casual Level IV ability user, but his most valued disciple. .
"Do you think the Salvation Alliance's free-spirited views are important?"
Shadow then replied:
"I don't think he means to kill someone. If this is really his instruction, then he has to explain well why he wants to attack members of the Federation. You must have remembered, right? I am also level V. Those who can."
Tang Jinghong immediately asked with a somewhat arrogant attitude:
"The point is not what Xiaoyao thinks, but what do you and that member of the Salvation Alliance want to do? Who can prove that what you said is true? You killed Du Jin before we interrogated and investigated. Even if you agreed, that Ma En should not have suggested killing him.
"Now I have doubts about why you selected him. You seem to be putting your own interests before the Federation."
Shadow knew the reason for her anger. The Salvation Alliance had assassinated her daughter before her death some time ago, and he had not had a major disagreement with her daughter not long ago. Together, they would definitely arouse her disgust.
I'm afraid only the murderer of Tang Jinghong's daughter can make her divert her attention.
Due to his status, he couldn't just ignore the other party, but he couldn't act too tough.
After all, her daughter had just died.
It just so happened that the faction he was currently cooperating with was opposed to her. Shadow suspected that she might have acted so tough because she knew this. Although Tang Jinghong was really sad about the death of her daughter, these politicians even under such circumstances Will maintain "professional quality".
Shadow said to her:
"Ms. Tang, I understand your emotions, but we are the professionals in this matter. As for your concerns about Xiaoyao, they will naturally be left to me to resolve and handle. If you still doubt us, I I won't say anything more.
"But I hope you can not affect our operation first. The battle between Marne and Atlantis is more important than your suspicions."
The woman said with a cold face:
"This Marn better not embarrass us, otherwise you and he will have to accept federal investigation."
Sure enough, she said this to express her dissatisfaction with her cooperation with them to recruit Ma En.
The shadow didn't respond to him anymore, then turned around and turned into a shadow flowing out of the room, quickly passing through several corridors and more than a dozen rooms, and then appeared in front of Ma Ma who was standing next to Du Jin's body. In front of grace.
"You are really ruthless." Shadow showed a sigh of relief.
Ma En said:
"At the end, his mind was a little unstable. I could sense that something was wrong with this guy. If I let him go like this, it might cause me more trouble. He seemed to have put me on the must-kill list. .

"I remember you said that they had a lot of weird abilities. Before he died, he also felt regret for not being able to fully utilize them. He felt that if he survived, he would definitely be able to use more difficult moves."
Du Jin felt that this sparring session was his opportunity, but in fact, if he really acted shady, Ma En might not be able to deal with it easily.
Shadow took the words and said:
"But he has no chance. We did not misjudge you."
Ma En continued:
"Furthermore, when he screamed before he died, I could still vaguely feel the strong resentment and a trace of despair permeating it, but the strange thing is that most of these emotions were not directed at me who killed him, but at someone else."
Shadow said thoughtfully:
"I'll keep an eye on that."
Ma En then asked curiously:
"Will it cause you any trouble if I do this?"
Shadow did not mention the question he had just received:
"Of course not. If you hadn't taken action, I would have used my own methods to deal with him, but it would definitely be easier to explain if you did.
"There will definitely be some discussion about this in the federation, and it will be mixed with negative remarks for you, but these are normal processes in the federation. Even if you hear it, you don't need to take it to heart. Of course, I have also told him His master is a level V ability user.
"So I have to go out of my way to solve this problem. Before that, you'd better be careful. It's best to stay in the Federation before the decisive battle. Don't run outside at will, lest something happen to me before I solve the problem."
Regarding his suggestion, Ma En nodded slightly:
"no problem."
The shadow body continued to chat politely with Ma En. At the same time, he used the shadow to roll up the broken golden sphere, then quietly integrated the main consciousness and shadow into the ground, and turned into a semi-mental state to aim. To another body in the Eastern Federation.
Time and space began to distort in his mental vision, and then the fog that filled the entire forest appeared in his eyes.
With the squeezing and swallowing, the shadow emerged outside the foggy forest with Du Jin's incomplete body.
"Why did fellow Taoist come here this time?"
This time, Shadow heard Xiaoyao's greeting as soon as he stepped into Taoist Master Xiaoyao's body and mind. Following his voice, the trees in front of Shadow began to retreat to both sides. At the same time, the space was constantly changing and chaotic. The quaint wooden house slowly appeared in front of his eyes again.
Taoist priest Xiaoyao was sitting cross-legged outside the door where he could see it. This time there was a huge stove behind him, and two young disciples, a man and a woman, stood respectfully behind him.
They were each holding a big cattail leaf fan, and they were fanning the alchemy furnace behind him under carefree care. The shadows could feel that with their waving, something seemed to leave their bodies and get into the furnace, and around them The mist seemed to flow in and out constantly.
"Your disciple made a killing blow during the duel with him, and the Federation member who was sparring with him did not hold back." Shadow said as he walked inside, while controlling the shadow to separate himself from the mist, "I am Let’s talk about this.”
Xiaoyao raised his hand and counted a few times, then asked the shadow:
"You brought the body of my disciple."
The shadow reached into the shadow of his chest, and then took out the broken golden elixir:
"That's all he has left."
Xiaoyao shook his head with regret:
"What a waste, my good disciple..."
Seeing that he didn't immediately question his apprentice's death, Shadow had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Xiaoyao waved his hand in front of him, and then the invisible mist dragged the broken golden elixir into the furnace, and the two disciples standing behind him also accelerated the speed of waving cattail fans, as if they wanted to impatiently put their own Senior brother made a pill for me.
"Is this how you treat your disciples?" Shadow asked curiously.
Taoist Xiaoyao said:
"You barbarians just like this kind of hypocrisy. Those who are alive are my disciples, and those who are dead are naturally just fake elixirs.
"What does it have to do with my disciple?
"It's a pity that the golden elixir you brought has been broken. If I can use the method to take it out completely, I can produce seven foundation-building fake elixirs and twenty-three solid yuan-peiating elixirs in one furnace. It's a pity, it's a pity... "
Shadow asked:
"You don't seem to care about your apprentice's life or death at all?"
Taoist Xiaoyao said lightly:
"Life and death are fateful. It's not like I'm not in the Five Elements, and I don't have the ability to resurrect the dead. Do I have to cry for him for days and nights? Opportunities in practice are inherently disasters, and no one can cope with them on his behalf. "
Shadow said with caution:
"Then this matter is over?"
Xiaoyao looked at him:
"Past? You have killed my most valued disciple. Originally, he would have perfected the elixir after practicing for fifty years. As long as you feed him a few Infant Transformation Pills, you will be 40% sure of breaking through the Nascent Soul, and you can be with him. I become a comrade and realize the free and easy way together.
"Nascent Soul is what you call Level V. Do you think it can be as simple as that?"
"Then what do you want?" Shadow narrowed his eyes, "Your disciple did this first. The Federation may treat you as a guest, but you'd better not expect me to be polite to you."
Xiaoyao showed a mysterious smile and continued:
"I want you to help me find a few suitable disciples in the mortal world, and I will tell you the conditions.
"I know you have countless incarnations. This is not a difficult thing for you."
Shadow saw that his request was reasonable, so he agreed verbally:
"good."
Taoist Xiaoyao smiled and said:
"Then please come back, I still need to make elixirs."
He waited until the shadow left the range of the fog, then turned to look at his two true disciples who were already sweating profusely:
"Fan yourself well, your junior brother is still waiting for this furnace pill."
After saying that, Xiaoyao showed a distressed expression again. His little disciple had already wasted several excellent foundation-building pills before he even started. He didn't know how many of his pills he would consume after becoming a disciple, but he had a feeling of improvement in his heart. I had some expectations.
No matter how many pills they took, it was all worth it. They never thought they could find a real heretic demon here.
