He thought for a while and asked:
"But what is his purpose for doing this? Also, why did he send Senior Brother Ye Song to kill me before, instead of coming in person?"
Ye Song replied: "He will participate in the competition for the position of Valley Master in the near future. In order to avoid being contaminated by Karma, he asked me to do it for him."
"I see..." Jiang Fan nodded.
"I remember that Senior Brother Ye Song is also a Sequence disciple. You are also qualified to compete for the position of the next Valley Master. Why are you not afraid of being contaminated by Karma?"
"Because he made a deal with me. As long as I withdraw from the competition for the position of Valley Master, in addition to a large amount of training resources, he will also give me something that I can't refuse as a reward..."
Speaking of this, Ye Song suddenly froze for a moment, and his heart felt like a flash of lightning.
Immediately, veins popped out on his forehead, and he slammed the table angrily:
"I used to wonder why he knew I was lacking something like that. I obviously only revealed it to a few people around me, but I didn't expect the truth to be like this!"
"Dog thief!" He slammed into the ground, making a small hole in the floor of the bamboo building.
Sikong Yueling's eyelids twitched as he looked at this small pit.
She secretly accumulated spiritual power, froze the loot in the pit into a ball, and made it fly out of the bamboo building from the window with a movement of her fingers. Only then did she show an imperceptible smile with satisfaction.
The other three people did not notice this detail. Jiang Fan clasped his nails and continued his analysis:
"So, the ultimate goal of Han Yun placing chess pieces around you is to compete for the position of Valley Master."
Ye Song nodded: "That should be the case."
Jiang Fan thought for a while and said: "Sister Su Yi, the closest and most trusted person to Senior Brother Ye Song, was controlled by Han Yun and became his pawn..."
"In this case, based on his behavior, we might as well assume that there are similar characters around the other sequence disciples?"
"I don't know about the situation of Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Brother, and I can't control it..." He lowered his head and pondered.
"But next to Senior Sister Yueling, who will be Han Yun's dark chess?"
Jiang Fan raised his head and looked at Sikong Yueling: "Senior sister, is there anyone close to you who behaves strangely?"
As soon as he said these words, he saw the girl's eyes subconsciously looking at him.
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Sister, look at what I'm doing, do you think I'm Han Yun's secret chess piece?"
Sikong Yueling lowered his eyes, picked up the steaming tea, covered his face with his sleeves, took a sip, and answered Jiang Fan's first question in a calm tone.
"No."
"No..." Jiang Fan lowered his head and continued to think. "Who could that be?"
At this time, he suddenly froze and realized something in his heart.
Earlier I asked my senior sister if she had anyone closest to her, and she looked at me subconsciously. Doesn’t this mean...
Jiang Fan looked at his senior sister again with a strange look, and saw that she was drinking tea by herself, not daring to look at him at all, and he suddenly understood.
what is this? Proud?
After getting along with her for a long time, I was almost deceived by her cold and arrogant appearance. Even if she said a thousand words, the senior sister was actually just a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
Jiang Fan coughed dryly, gathered his thoughts, and continued to analyze in his heart:
Since Senior Sister Yueling doesn’t have anyone closest to her, let’s put it another way. Apart from her, who else on Yueling Island has access to the most things?
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Deacon Lin!"
"It's him?"
Hearing Jiang Fan read these three words, Sikong Yueling's image instantly appeared in his mind.
It was a bald man with a wrinkled face.
"Yes, I suddenly remembered that it was my senior brother Han Yun who recommended this person to me at that time to help me manage all the affairs on Yueling Island. I saw that he was very capable, so I stayed."
"Now that I think about it carefully, his behavior is indeed suspicious. For example, when walking on my island, I often bump into him reporting the situation on the island to me intentionally or unintentionally. Now that I think about it, the number of times is too frequent."
After the girl said this, Jiang Fan keenly captured two key pieces of information:
Recommended by Han Yun and frequently contacted Senior Sister Yueling.
He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a certain degree of certainty in his tone: "I'm basically sure it's him...Senior sister, please call him here, I want to confirm."
Sikong Yueling knew that he had some strange ability. He could tell a person's nature just by looking at him face to face, so he nodded.
She summoned a sound transmission jade slip from her storage jade bracelet, crushed it directly, and shouted at the same time: "Deacon Lin, come to see me in Qingxinyuan quickly."
The jade slip turned into a white light and disappeared quickly.
The four of them waited for a while while burning incense. During this period, Ye Song kept softly comforting his Taoist companion, and Su Yi's mood gradually stabilized.
Jiang Fan drank one cup after another of tea in front of him. He felt his stomach was a little bloated from drinking, and then the sound of belated footsteps came from outside the bamboo building.
Several people raised their heads at the same time and looked over there.
A bald man in a gray robe walked in with a respectful look and lowered his eyebrows. All four people's eyes were focused on his wrinkled face.
Jiang Fan immediately focused his mind and said silently: "System, check the opponent's current luck."
The luck entry slowly popped up on the top of the bald man's head:
[Spiritual roots of metal, wood, and fire, traitors, restlessness, and path severance]
The moment he saw the second entry, Jiang Fan was convinced that his previous guess was correct.
After the bald man entered the door, he raised his head and carefully glanced at the people present.
When they saw Sikong Yueling and Ye Song, the expressions on their faces were slightly surprised, but they were still calm.
When his eyes glanced at Amelia Su, he was only slightly confused.
But when his eyes turned to Jiang Fan, who was sitting on a row of bamboo chairs with the three of them, he felt a sudden shock all over, as if he had seen a ghost.
He opened his mouth wide, took two steps back, pointed his finger at the latter's face, and blurted out:
"You...you are still alive?"
After saying this, the big man realized that he had made a mistake, so he closed his mouth in a panic, lowered his head and trembled.
Sikong Yueling was not a stupid person. When she heard the old man's words, she remembered that the wooden building where Jiang Fan lived before was destroyed in the middle of the night.
In addition, I learned from Ye Song that it was Han Yun who wanted to kill Jiang Fan.
She immediately judged in her heart that the person in front of her was the chess piece placed by her senior brother.
With her usually cold and calm temperament, she couldn't help but feel a little angry in her heart at this time.
The girl's eyes narrowed, she slapped the table and shouted: "Lin Yan! You rip-off bitch, you are so brave!"
The bald man realized that he had made a mistake first, and now he was shouted at by the girl again. Knowing that the matter could no longer be hidden, he was so frightened that he knocked his head to the ground and replied with a trembling voice:
"Island Master, if you realize your mistake, you deserve to die..."
Sikong Yueling's pretty face was as cold as ice and said: "Spit me out everything you know."
