Ling Xiao just quietly watched Hei Suo act pretentious, without the slightest intention of stopping him.
Just as that idiot stepped within five meters of the manor, his expression suddenly changed. A terrifying aura made him kneel on the spot, and the plague poison spread into his body, causing him to howl miserably. He had no choice but to sit down cross-legged to expel the poison.
"Sigh, I've already said … Everyone, wait a moment. It seems that this Senior Brother Hei Suo thinks he has a long life and doesn't care about this Junior Brother's reminder?"
Ling Xiao sighed and looked at Hei Suo with schadenfreude.
He originally didn't plan to deal with Hei Suo at this time. Who knew that this guy would seek death? What could he do?
"Humph!"
Seeing this scene, Elder Jin, one of the Grand Elders of the Law Enforcement Hall, coldly snorted and directly jumped into the Plague Bone Dissolving Formation. This formation indeed couldn't do anything to him, but it wouldn't be so easy for him to rescue Hei Suo.
Not only that, but the longer he entered the Plague Bone Dissolving Formation, the uglier Elder Jin's expression became. The plague poison was like a maggot in his bones, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.
Although he could easily resist it by relying on his powerful True Essence, it was simply impossible to dissolve it.
"Brat, you've done a good thing. This time you've made the Grand Elders of the Law Enforcement Hall lose face."
Wanghan Tianzun secretly transmitted her voice to Ling Xiao.
"This disciple is really wronged. This formation was set up purely to block the disciples of other sects. Who knew that the two of them wouldn't listen to me."
Ling Xiao also transmitted his voice with a bitter smile.
Wanghan Tianzun was secretly pleased. That day, the five Grand Elders of the Law Enforcement Hall attacked her and the old Hall Master Yang Danlin. They were injured because of it, and she still felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
Seeing Elder Jin suffer today, how could she not be happy?
"Grand Elders, please withdraw first. Everyone just follow this disciple into the manor. This formation was originally used to prevent the disciples of other sects from trespassing into the manor."
Ling Xiao thought to himself, You guys didn't take me, an outer court disciple, seriously. Now you guys are suffering, right? You deserve it!
However, he still didn't want to offend this Law Enforcement Elder right now, so he immediately jumped into the formation and walked through the Plague Bone Dissolving Formation in a special way. The rest of the people followed him into the manor, and as expected, nothing happened.
Elder Jin's face flushed red, but he was a person who cared about his reputation. Naturally, he wouldn't argue with a mere outer disciple like Ling Xiao.
Even if he wanted to make a fuss, he would secretly make things difficult for Ling Xiao. He would definitely not do it openly. After all, he could not afford to lose face like that.
Hei Suo was also rescued by Meng Yuan from the Plague Bone Dissolving Formation. However, the plague poison could not be resolved.
Ling Xiao would not help him detoxify the poison. If he died, then he deserved it.
However, Hei Suo shouldn't die. There were four Inner Sect Elders here. Even if they relied on pure Zhen Yuan, it should be enough to force out the plague poison from Hei Suo.
In the end, it was Elder Jin who saved Hei Suo.
It could be seen that this Elder Jin's relationship with The Flame Deity was not shallow.
"Little guy, you have to be careful. Elder Jin is The Flame Deity's Master. Hei Suo can be considered his grand-disciple."
Wanghan Tianzun secretly transmitted his voice to Ling Xiao, informing him of this situation.
Ling Xiao secretly thought that it was no wonder that the five Law Enforcement Elders of the Law Enforcement Hall would side with him. After all this time, the Law Enforcement Hall's head, Elder Jin, was actually The Flame Deity's Master.
Wasn't this the legendary snake and rat nest?
The four Inner Sect Elders led the elite Inner Sect disciples to search the entire manor, even the Green Valley. However, they did not find anything useful.
Even the Plague Demon King's treasury that had been completely emptied by Ling Xiao was not found.
In fact, even if they found it, it would be useless.
Among this group of people, there was no one who was proficient in formations. It was simply impossible to open that treasury.
Therefore, the fact that Ling Xiao had stolen all of the Plague Demon King's treasures, at least for a period of time, would not be known by anyone.
However, as the person who had completed this mission, Ling Xiao was still interrogated like a criminal.
After all, Wanyan Jun and Chen Zui were both dead.
Shangguan Lei said that he had fainted and did not know what had happened.
Therefore, the only person who knew what had happened was Ling Xiao alone.
It was actually very normal that he would be interrogated.
Therefore, Ling Xiao had already thought of a countermeasure and how to answer.
"Ling Xiao, how do you explain Wanyan Jun and Chen Zui's deaths?"
Elder Jin asked, his attitude very strict.
Ling Xiao replied very seriously, "Reporting to Elder Jin, this disciple was only focused on completing the mission and did not pay attention to how Senior Brother Wanyan and Senior Brother Chen Zui died. It was only after defeating the Plague Demon King that I discovered the unconscious Senior Brother Shangguan and saved him."
"What nonsense! Did you kill Wanyan Jun and Chen Zui, and then collude with the Plague Demon King? "
Before Elder Jin could speak, Meng Yuan rushed to shout from the side.
"Who do you think you are? You have no right to interrupt the Grand Elder's question!"
Wanghan Tianzun angrily scolded Meng Yuan, "Could it be that this is how your master taught you, to interrogate people who have contributed to the sect like criminals?"
Meng Yuan's face alternated between red and white, but he did not dare to refute.
He did not care about Ling Xiao, but he could not not care about Wanghan Tianzun.
This woman was a lunatic. She could even injure his master, let alone him.
"Enough, Guanghan, he is just concerned about his fellow disciples."
Elder Jin waved his hand and blocked Wanghan Tianzun's terrifying aura for Meng Yuan.
"Elder Jin, could it be that you mean Ling Xiao is not a disciple of the Yuehua School? When I came here, I heard that he was almost killed by the disciples of the Beast King Palace in order to protect this manor. You can't be so biased! "
Wanghan Tianzun coldly looked at Elder Jin and said.
"Ahem, Guanghan, don't worry, we just want to clarify things. We will never wrong a good person, and we will never let a bad person go. After all, this involves the True Demons Empire, so we must be careful."
Another Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, Elder Tu, coughed twice and said.
"Hmph, this matter better be fair. Otherwise, together with the previous matter, I will definitely seek justice from the Sect Master!"
Wanghan Tianzun coldly snorted and no longer spoke.
Elder Jin also did not want to have internal strife, so he looked at Ling Xiao and asked, "Ling Xiao, you don't have to be afraid, just answer a few of my questions."
"Supreme Elder, please ask. This disciple will tell you everything he knows!"
Ling Xiao said respectfully.
"Okay, let me ask you. You are just an Outer Disciple with the cultivation of a Half-step Master. Why did you complete the mission in the Green Valley, but Wanyan Jun and the others failed? And from the beginning to the end, you did not show any signs of injury? "
Elder Jin's tone became heavier and heavier, and there was even a tendency to be aggressive. "Also, what's with the array formation outside the manor? That should be the Plague Demon King's most proficient Plague Bone Formation, right? How did you set it up? "
