It took about a day for Xiao He to remove the poisonous poisons from each sect leader and clan leader one by one. Qin Xinyu was very curious as to why Elder Yue Chen was let go. Wouldn't someone like this be killed first and then quickly? Xiao He just smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, let them be afraid for two days."
Qin Xinyu didn't understand what he meant and just rolled his eyes.
In fact, Xiao He no longer has so much hostility towards Baidi Village. According to the clues he has traced along the way, Xiao He is now even starting to think that Senior Brother Xingyu may have never been to Southern Xinjiang. Maybe he suddenly changed halfway due to other things. Planned itinerary. As for Bai Guangyin, who brought disaster to Guiyan Peak, although he was not killed by his own hands, he died in front of him. Regarding his hatred for Baidi Village, Xiao He has been able to let go more and more.
He was unwilling to have a head-on conflict with Baidi Village for the time being. He was more concerned about the war between Southern Xinjiang and Liuguang Blessed Land. Just when he was doubtful, Zhen Lu, the leader of the Tianchi tribe, suddenly came to visit him.
Xiao He was not too surprised by the arrival of clan leader Zhenlu. It seemed that he had expected it. The clan leaders of Jiangyang clan, King Qin and Qin Xinyu, were both in the room at that time. When Zhenlu entered the room, he was obviously very kind to King Qin and his daughter. , Xiao He smiled and said first: "The clan leader came to visit, why?"
Chief Zhenlu looked a little ashamed and said: "I came to visit because I want to explain to the compatriots of the Jiangyang tribe and Elder Xiao He about the participation of each tribe in the battle against Liuguang Blessed Land. It is indeed a helpless move for me. I am lucky enough to be able to cultivate today. The profound Elder Xiao He came to the rescue and was freed from the pain. Now, he will never be willing to be Baidi Village's lackey again!"
Hearing what Master Zhenlu said, King Qin, who was well aware of his ambition, just snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Xiao He also tacitly expressed his opinion and continued to ask: "Clan Chief Zhenlu just said that you want to tell me about the battle against Liuguang Blessed Land?"
Chief Zhenlu nodded and said seriously: "Exactly!" He paused for a moment, seeing that Xiao He did not speak, and continued: "Actually, my tribes did not play any role in the battle against several sects in Liuguang Blessed Land. Most of the things that have a substantive effect are done by the people of Baidi Village. We are either feinting or cannon fodder. I believe King Qin also understands this."
After Zhenlu Clan Chief said this, he turned to look at King Qin. King Qin still did not speak, but he nodded. Zhenlu Clan Chief then continued: "Especially this time, under Bai Di Zhuang's lustful power, the Jiang Yang Clan For the time being, we are insisting on the front line with Liuguang Blessed Land. Frankly speaking, not only the Jiangyang clan, but any clan in southern Xinjiang will be defeated if they confront Liuguang Blessed Land alone. However, Liuguang Blessed Land has not even organized a counterattack. Such a big one During the war, Liuguang Blessed Land suffered heavy losses, and it has been standing still, making it difficult for people to figure it out."
After Patriarch Zhenlu finished speaking, Xiao He immediately asked: "Chief, what do you think the reason might be?"
After Zhenlu Clan Chief thought about it for a while, he still said: "In the past, I was restrained by others. I only obeyed orders on this matter and did not think more about it. Now that I think about it calmly, I always feel that the purpose of Baidi Village may be Not in Liuguang Blessed Land, but in this war, there is always an indescribable tacit understanding between Liuguang Blessed Land and Baidi Village."
When he heard this, Xiao He's face was livid. If there was really a collusion between Liuguang Blessed Land and Baidi Village, it would be a disaster for himself.
Xiao He said nothing, lowered his head and thought alone. Seeing this, Qin Xinyu walked to Xiao He and asked, "What do you think of this matter?"
Xiao He shook his head slightly, and the Zhenlu clan leader continued: "Perhaps there will be an answer to this matter tonight!"
"What does the clan leader mean?" Xiao He asked.
"Not far from here, there is a stronghold of Baidi Village. There is always an elder-level figure in their sect sitting in charge. Capture him and you will know as soon as you ask him!" Zhenlu Sect Master replied.
Xiao He couldn't help but laugh, and asked: "If my guess is correct, you should have already taken action, right?"
Chief Zhenlu nodded slightly awkwardly and explained: "The sect leaders of each sect have been oppressed by Baidi Village for a long time, and they have long been unable to bear it. Now that the poisonous poison that restrained them has been lifted, they cannot hold back the anger in their hearts, and they all lead their own The troops are heading to this stronghold, and they should probably be back soon by this time!"
After hearing this, Xiao He nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. I also want to see what Baidi Village's conspiracy is."
At this time, the voices of Tianchi clan members sounded at the door, reporting to the Zhenlu clan leader that the heads of each sect had returned in triumph.
Hearing this, Zhenlu stood up quickly, made an invitation gesture, and guided Xiao He and Prince Qin and his daughter out of the door.
In the square outside the gate, the sect leaders of each sect were escorting a man who looked like an elder. There were no other disciples. Behind them, a carriage caught Xiao He's attention.
Xiao He first stood in front of the arrested person and asked, "Who is this person?"
On the side, another sect leader replied: "This person is also an elder of Baidi Village, his name is Gao Shan."
Xiao He nodded and asked, "Where are the other disciples?"
The sect leader next to him replied: "There are not many disciples in the stronghold. We have not harmed innocent lives, so we will let them all go!"
Xiao He couldn't help but smile again, and said to himself: "This approach is somewhat like the style of the Central Plains people."
"Let him go." Xiao He said softly.
When the people around him heard this, they all looked at Xiao He in disbelief. Xiao He said again: "Let him go."
Zhen Lu, the leader of the Tianchi clan, immediately said: "You don't know. Elder Baidizhuang also possesses secret skills. If these sect leaders had not joined forces, they would not be able to surrender. Now if he is given a chance, he will definitely use it." What kind of secret method is there to die together?"
Xiao He disagreed and looked at the elder named Gao Shan, and Elder Gao Shan was also looking at him at the moment. No matter how his expression and eyes showed weakness and begged for mercy, Xiao He could still see that he must have planned the final blow in his heart. If If he succeeds, everyone around him will suffer.
However, Xiao He still said calmly: "It's okay, let him go."
Several sect leaders, look at me and I look at you, decided to obey Xiao He's order and took action to remove the restrictions jointly set by them.
The moment he had just untied it, Elder Gao Shan wanted to trigger his life Gu to self-destruct. With his current level of cultivation, such damage would be almost the same as the effect of a Central Plains cultivator's self-explosion of inner elixir. However, he was surprised to find that he No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the magic power to detonate the natal Gu. Only then did he realize that Xiao He was looking at him calmly, as if the restriction he was currently receiving came from the young man in front of him.
Inferring the other party's approximate cultivation level from this, a trace of fear arose spontaneously. Gao Shan asked: "Who are you?"
Listening to Gao Shan's cautious voice, Xiao He said: "I am the elder of Zhenwu Shen Sect."
"Elder Shenzong?" Gao Shan secretly thought in his heart. It seemed that both Dai Weng and Yue Chen were right. He just didn't expect that Zhenwu Shenzong would really have such a young elder, and he would never understand that in the A breakthrough from Shenzong will make a huge difference to the practitioners.
At this time, Xiao He stretched out his right hand and opened his palm. Gao Shan suddenly realized that at that moment, he seemed to be isolated from the outside world. He could not hear the sounds around him at all, and could not feel the presence of anyone around him. The next second, he was Xiao He's dungeon was completely trapped. Xiao He's right palm drew out a ball of cyan energy, which condensed into a ball and hovered over the top of the mountain.
Looking up at the ball above his head, Gao Shan knew that after this blow, he would become a dead man. Looking at Xiao He, who was still calm and calm, Gao Shan even closed his eyes, waiting for him to make a move.
However, the ball symbolizing death did not fall for a long time. When Gao Shan opened his eyes again, Xiao He had already released his restraints.
"What do you mean?" Gao Shan asked with a pale face.
"Are you leaving?" Xiao He said.
"Really let me go?" Gao Shan was not sure, fearing that this would be another cat-and-mouse game. If he was destined to die, he, as an elder, did not want to be played with.
"Can't believe it?" Xiao He asked with a smile.
Gao Shan stopped talking. He backed away and looked at Xiao He cautiously. After a few steps, he finally turned around and left the tribe as fast as he could escape.
From the beginning to the end, the people around him didn't say a word. They watched Xiao He play with Elder Baidizhuang so freely. Their admiration and fear for Xiao He rose almost at the same time. No one dared to question Xiao He. purpose.
Qin Xinyu, on the other hand, asked Xiao He: "This is the third time you have caught the elder of Baidi Village and let him go, right? Why?"
Xiao He smiled mysteriously and said, "I hope the sect master of Baidi Village can understand this worldly thing."
Qin Xinyu didn't understand what he meant, so he just stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.
Among the crowd, the sect leader who was a few years older asked Xiao He: "High Priest, what do you think of this carriage?"
Xiao He looked at the carriage and asked, "Was it also found at the stronghold?"
The man nodded and said, "Exactly! My subordinates saw that this carriage was not from southern Xinjiang and were worried that there was something strange in it, so they also drove the carriage back together."
Xiao He nodded and said calmly: "Drive the car away and talk about it later."
Upon hearing this, the sect leader turned around and waved to two disciples to drive the carriage to another place. The carriage gradually moved away, making a pleasant sound like spring water along the way.
"May I ask if the high priest has any other instructions for us? I don't dare to disobey you," the sect leader said.
When he called himself a subordinate just now, Xiao He felt awkward. Now he said it again and immediately said: "You are not my subordinates, and you don't have to listen to my orders."
Unexpectedly, Xiao He didn't say it was okay. As soon as he said this, everyone including Zhenlu Sect Leader knelt down on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The high priest relieves us of the poisonous poison. We are willing to respect you. The liver and brain are ruined."
Such a show of loyalty and the sincerity of the scene made King Qin who was standing aside not knowing whether he should also kneel down.
Seeing that his persuasion was useless, Xiao He immediately fled the scene, leaving only the people kneeling on the ground at a loss and King Qin standing aside, slightly embarrassed.
Only Qin Xinyu, with the mentality of watching the excitement, left the scene and rushed to Xiao He's residence.
As soon as Xiao He entered the room and sat down, Qin Xinyu came. He still couldn't help but asked Xiao He: "Baidizhuang oppresses all the clans and tribes in southern Xinjiang in this way, and uses scheming methods to attack them. And as the clan leaders said, There might be another conspiracy between Baidi Village and Liuguang Blessed Land, so why are the elders of Baidi Village captured and released again and again?"
Xiao He smiled and explained: "Many times, defeating the opponent is not the best way to solve the problem. It may not be a difficult thing for me to kill several elders of the opponent, and even the leader of Baidi Village, but I won't For those who have been staying in Southern Xinjiang, what will happen after I leave? Southern Xinjiang will fall into a huge whirlpool of war, not to mention that it is impossible for me to teach everyone the solution to Baidi Zhuang's poisonous poison, right? The Tao may seem simple, but in fact it requires extremely high levels of cultivation. If I kill him and leave quickly, won’t it be the various sects and tribes that suffer? At that time, Baidi Village’s revenge will only become more violent.”
After hearing this, Qin Xinyu nodded thoughtfully and asked, "But will it be useful if you put them back one by one now?"
Xiao He smiled and replied: "After tonight, they should come to negotiate peace."
