When the Third Palace Master said these words, it was obvious that he was resentful.
He was angry at Dao Xingyun's cowardice, so he said such provocative words.
The Second Hall Master was in the same position as him, so he would naturally agree with his words to put pressure on the First Hall Master.
"That's right! If Dao Xingyun is really afraid, then the Third Hall Master and I will escort him.
When we reach the south, the five of us will join forces to help him search for the murderer! "
When the Second Hall Master said these two sentences, his tone was full of undisguised contempt and sneer.
Think about it, a mere Celestial Thearch-Level murderer had caused a huge ruckus in the Great Universe Sacred Hall.
Other than the First Hall Master who stayed behind to guard the Taiyu Mystery Realm, the other six Hall Masters would go all out to catch the murderer.
How ironic and shameful was this?
Even if the six Hall Masters joined forces to catch the murderer, the Taiyu Shrine's reputation would be ruined!
Logically speaking, the First Hall Master should be angry and order Dao Xingyun to rush to the south.
However, to the surprise of the two Hall Masters, the First Hall Master nodded and said, "Good, I am very pleased that the two of you have such determination and courage.
I will tell the Seventh Hall Master to leave as soon as possible.
Well, if there is nothing else, you can leave. "
The First Hall Master obviously did not want to say anything more to the two Hall Masters, so he waved his hand and asked them to leave.
The two Hall Masters were a little disappointed. After looking at each other, they shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
However, no matter what, they could not be angry at the First Hall Master, so they could only bow and say goodbye.
After walking out of the Taiyu Palace, the two Hall Masters said goodbye to each other at the gate, then flew into the sky and returned to their respective residences.
The two Hall Masters' backs were filled with disappointment, loneliness, and desolation.
…
A day later, the First Hall Master thought about it again and again and sent a message to summon Dao Xingyun.
Previously, he personally went to the Fanxing Palace to find Dao Xingyun in the backyard and talk to him face to face.
This time, he ordered Dao Xingyun to go to the Taiyu Palace to see him.
The meaning of the two were completely different.
With Dao Xingyun's intelligence, of course, he could understand the meaning behind it.
Previously, the Lord Hallmaster had gone to the Star Palace to ask for his opinion.
This time around, it was likely that the Lord Palace Master had given him an order, and he had no choice but to follow it.
As a result, Dao Xingyun's expression was rather unsightly on the way to Taiyu Divine Palace. His eyes were filled with deep worry.
Once he entered the Great Universe Divine Palace, he quickly entered the secret room where the First Hall Master cultivated in seclusion.
The Lord Hallmaster was still sitting at the top of the altar, looking down at Dao Xingyun who had pushed open the door and entered.
Dao Xingyun bowed and asked, "May I ask what orders does Lord Palace Master have for me?"
The Grand Palace Master did not want to waste time with him. He said straightforwardly, "This started because of you. Whoever started the trouble should end it. You must go to the south and help the other Palace Masters catch the murderer.
Originally, the Second Palace Master and the Third Palace Master planned to escort you to the south.
However, the Second Palace Master had to stay behind in the Secret Realm to preside over the overall situation and deal with various affairs.
Therefore, only the Third Palace Master can escort you, and this matter must be done as soon as possible. I will give you three days. "
"This …" Dao Xingyun was very smart. He immediately understood what the Lord Palace Master meant. He guessed that the Second Palace Master and the Third Palace Master had joined forces to pressure the Lord Palace Master to make this decision.
Now that things had developed to this point, there was no turning back. He could no longer resist.
"Hmm?" Seeing that he was silent, the Lord Palace Master frowned and cast a dignified look at him.
Dao Xingyun's body stiffened. He knew that he could not avoid this matter. He could only bow and say, "As you command, Lord Palace Master. I will do my best and not disappoint you."
Only then did the Lord Palace Master withdraw his dignified look. He closed his eyes and said, "You may leave."
Dao Xingyun bowed silently and turned to leave the secret room.
After walking out of Taiyu Divine Palace, he stopped outside the gate for a moment. He looked at the sky in the south and sighed silently.
"If it's a blessing, it's not a curse. If it's a curse, it can't be avoided. What will come will come. "
Although he knew that the murderer who was wreaking havoc in the south was coming for him, he knew that there must be a conspiracy waiting for him.
He also knew that his life would be in danger if he went south this time.
However, the murderer did not need to scheme. He only needed to use an open scheme to mess up the Taiyu Shrine and make the five Palace Masters join forces to exclude him.
No matter how much the Lord Palace Master tried to protect him, it was useless. This was the situation stirred up by the murderer.
Even if he had the idea that he was the only sober person in the world, he could only follow the Lord Palace Master's orders.
…
On the morning of the third day, it was the deadline set by the Lord Palace Master.
The Third Palace Master had already gathered three thousand elite Godly Kings and was waiting at the entrance of the secret realm.
After an hour, the Seventh Palace Master, Dao Xingyun, arrived late and alone.
Seeing his desolate expression, the Third Palace Master sneered in his heart, "Heh heh … This guy sure is pitiful. The Deepstar Palace clearly gathered one or two thousand people, but he can't even gather a few dozen guards to accompany him to the south to capture the murderer."
The Third Palace Master secretly mocked Dao Xingyun. As the Seventh Palace Master of the divine hall, he had ended up alone, without even a few loyal guards.
Dao Xingyun only had himself to blame. He deserved it!
But in fact, Dao Xingyun had other thoughts.
The Deepstar Palace might have one or two thousand guards and servants, but they were all members of the Desolate race. He would definitely not treat them as his trusted aides.
On the surface, he was alone, but in fact, the divine item he carried with him hid his fifty thousand elite soldiers. That was his trump card.
After both parties met, the Third Palace Master took the initiative to greet Dao Xingyun.
"Seventh Palace Master, we have been waiting for you for so long. We thought you had a lot of things to prepare, but we never expected you to come alone?"
Dao Xingyun ignored his sarcasm and said with a deadpan expression, "We are going to the south to capture the murderer, not to tour the world. It's useless no matter how many guards we bring.
Furthermore, with the Third Palace Master and so many guards escorting us, it can't be any safer. Why would I need to bring any guards? "
The Third Palace Master did not gain any advantage in his bickering, so he did not say anything more to Dao Xingyun. He waved his hand and gave the order, "Let's board the ship!"
Following that, Dao Xingyun followed the Third Palace Master onto the battleship. The three thousand elite Godly Kings also lined up and boarded the divine battleship.
Perhaps it was to make the journey more convenient, and to reach the south as soon as possible, the Third Palace Master only drove one divine battleship, and it was his flagship.
The flying speed of an Emperor-class battleship was of course unparalleled.
In just half a month, the Third Palace Master's battleship carried more than three thousand people and arrived in the south.
And before this, the news of the Third Palace Master escorting Dao Xingyun to the south had already reached the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Palace Masters. Hidden Warfare had also received the news.
Since Hidden Warfare knew of the news, Yi Jingfeng, as his chief advisor, naturally also received the news very quickly.
As such, the murderer who had been 'committing crimes' everywhere quickly disappeared. He did not make a move for eight days.
