If what Bai Xiuping said is true, then this force must be so huge and mysterious that even those at the top of the Ming Cult don't know about it.
Nalan Jingzhi thought thoughtfully and said slowly: "I heard that all the villagers in Luopo Village disappeared without a trace overnight."
Zhuang Fangliang was startled: "The villagers in the down-and-out village, how could they do this?"
After all, it is a place where I have lived for ten years, and it inevitably still has a certain place in my heart.
Nalan Jingzhi sighed: "If you knew about this matter, you might feel uncomfortable in your heart, so I never told you, and there are no clues about this matter. But now it seems that this matter may be related to Gongsun Huai related."
Bai Xiuping frowned slightly. Could it be that the head of Luolu Village had coerced the villagers into making Ecstasy just to prepare for the war?
He said in a deep voice: "Re-investigate Wu Xing Palace and Gongsun Huai carefully, as well as the funds handed over by Jubao Palace to Wu Xing Palace, where they flowed, and whether he has ever been to Yuanlai Peak. I will keep all of these without missing a beat. Investigate clearly."
It seems that Gongsun Huai is hidden deeper than everyone imagined.
Bi Yuanzhang nodded: "I will be responsible for the affairs of Luopo Village. There is a suspicious person who I suspect is related to this matter."
"If there is really a problem with Gongsun Huai's funds, he will definitely take action against Jubao Palace again. The impact of funds is huge, and he cannot sit idly by and ignore it."
Bai Xiuping turned to Nalan Jingzhi and asked, "Wei Yuanji is in a very dangerous situation now. Where is that guy?"
Nalan Jingzhi grinned: "So, that guy is lucky. He is now in the safest place in the Ming Cult."
Yangming Palace Annex.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I just sent some gold nuggets to Yangming Palace, and they built a garden for me."
Wei Yuanji was very satisfied with this. Thinking about how much money he had provided to Wu Xing Palace before, they still had a condescending attitude towards him.
He pointed at the people in Jubao Palace and scolded: "What are you still doing? Be smarter and put your bags in the room!"
Wei Yuanji rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that investing in Yangming Palace would be so cost-effective. It's just a little gold nugget to avoid Gongsun Huai. These properties can be kept away from him."
But, I don’t know why, but I always feel weird in my heart.
"Your Majesty, the Young Master wants to see you."
Du Wentao and Gongsun Fu appeared and saluted Wei Yuanji with clasped fists.
"Young Master?" Wei Yuanji was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, let him come over."
The reason why I always feel strange is probably because I have never seen the Young Master, the master of Yangming Palace.
Du Wentao lowered his head: "Well, the young leader asked you to go see him alone."
Wei Yuanji suddenly became furious. Since he, the master of the secret palace, wanted to take the initiative to visit a young man, he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "He, a young brat, dares to put on airs in front of me. Why, does he want me to go there?" , give me a command?"
He snorted coldly, and although he was dissatisfied, he still followed Gongsun Fu.
"Just in case, if you see Luo Xue, ask him to come to me immediately."
When Gongsun Fu heard someone scolding the young leader, he rarely had any reaction, but Wei Yuanji naturally did not pay attention to this.
When Wei Yuanji left, Du Wentao turned around and said: "All members of the wind collection team obey the order and put back all the luggage and boxes that have been unpacked and moved out."
"Ah? Why do you want to move back all of a sudden? We just moved down with great difficulty."
Du Wentao glanced at them and grinned: "How can the palace owner safely put valuables here? Of course, I have to find a safe place. Do as I say and follow me!"
…
In the secret room.
A huge roster was spread out and hung on the wall, with "Twelve Sect Masters of Yangming Palace" written clearly on it.
Bai Xiuping nodded and said, "Let's leave it like this for the time being. The ranking is based on the order in which everyone surrenders. You don't have to mind."
"All the sect leaders are recognized by me, and I regard you as family. Therefore, we must never use swords against each other, and there is no need to differentiate between superior and inferior."
He looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "But I have something to say beforehand. I will never allow anyone to take action against ordinary people who do not understand martial arts. If anyone bullies the weak, I will punish them severely!"
"Some of you already have your own power and family. I won't interfere too much in this regard. Each of the sect leaders can freely develop their power. Just remember to restrain the people under your command and not do any evil."
"Xiao Nanfeng, you will tell the other sect masters who are unable to come."
Xiao Nanfeng nodded in agreement.
Bai Xiuping had no intention of deliberately dividing responsibilities, but under the persuasion of Xiao Nanfeng and Nalan Jingzhi, both of them believed that the division of responsibilities was very important if the power wanted to develop normally.
Finally, we agreed to them and gave some people some responsibilities.
Nalan Jingzhi naturally serves as a military advisor.
Xiao Nanfeng, Lu Haizhou and Dongfang Kui, these three secret palace masters are the Dharma Kings who protect the teachings.
Zhuang Fangliang and Bi Yuanzhang served as Bai Xiuping's bodyguards.
"Young Master, I have invited Palace Master Wei here."
Gongsun Fu clasped his hands behind his back with a wicked smile on his face.
Wei Yuanji was covered in cold sweat and couldn't say a word for a long time with his mouth wide open. After a long time, he finally recovered, pointed at Xiao Nanfeng and shouted: "Hey, you guy, why are you here!"
"What on earth is going on? And Luo Xue, what are you doing standing over there? Come here quickly!"
Bai Xiuping glanced at him. How did this guy become the master of the Secret Palace? How could he be so stupid? He motioned Wei Yuanji to look at the roster and said, "It seems there are a lot of things that need to be explained. You'd better start first." Look at that.”
Wei Yuanji turned around and looked, and was suddenly shocked: "What, what is this? The twelve masters of Yangming Palace?"
Bai Xiuping looked at Wei Yuanji with a smirk on his face, "Thank you for your hard work, Wei Yuanji, for getting to this point."
Wei Yuanji was shocked and said, "What on earth do you mean?"
"Isn't it obvious? Since everyone already knows each other, there's no need to ask for trouble, right?"
Wei Yuanji burst out with anger. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that he was being played. In other words, from the beginning, he fell into the trap of the young leader. He shouted angrily: "You guys!"
Bai Xiuping looked at Wei Yuanji indifferently and sneered: "I advise you to take back your true energy. If you dare to take action, you will definitely die."
Zhuang Fangliang, Xiao Nanfeng and Bi Yuanzhang simultaneously burst out with almost substantial infuriating energy. Although Wei Yuanji's infuriating energy was huge, in their eyes, it was not worth mentioning.
With the three transformation masters in front, Wei Yuanji didn't even have a chance to meet the young leader.
Wei Yuanji was shocked and angry: "You guys are planning to push me into the abyss!"
"Who pushed you? Wasn't it you who came to the door in the first place?"
Wei Yuanji pointed at them and said angrily: "You are actually colluding with each other!"
Bai Xiuping was a little impatient: "Are you listening to me?"
"If you put it this way, it turns out that it's not that the young leader has a backer, but that the young leader is the mastermind behind it!"
Bai Xiuping "tsk", this guy really couldn't communicate, he said impatiently: "Xiao Nanfeng, just get rid of this guy."
Xiao Nanfeng waved his folding fan lightly and said with a soft smile: "Okay, Young Master."
The smile disappeared as quickly as it came. Xiao Nanfeng turned around and walked towards Wei Yuanji with cold eyes. The biting cold air emanated and the ground under his feet condensed into frost.
Wei Yuanji suddenly panicked, and his true energy solidified. Xiao Nanfeng had indeed reached the realm of transformation. He shouted to Zhuang Fangliang beside him: "Luo Xue, stop that girl! Hurry! Didn't you see that my life is in danger?" ?"
"Palace Master Wei, haven't you figured out the situation yet? Didn't you see that my name is also on it?"
Wei Yuanji immediately turned to the young leader and shouted: "Wait, young leader, don't we have a common enemy? How about we make a deal?"
Bai Xiuping on the main seat raised his hand, and Xiao Nanfeng stopped. He looked at Wei Yuanji coldly and nodded to indicate for him to continue.
Wei Yuanji breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the other party was still willing to talk, everything would be easy to discuss.
"I don't want Gongsun Huai to become the leader of the cult, so we can join forces and I will help you kill him."
Bai Xiuping sneered: "Don't the so-called transactions have to be established when both parties have the same capital? It seems that I can do it without you."
