After Jiang Wei left the Moon Illumination Sect's Forbidden Area, he immediately went to Zhao Feng's mansion in the inner court and asked the people there.
Soon after, he learned that Zhao Feng had come out of closed-door cultivation a while ago and had contacted the inner court elder, Liu Huan. He had left his mansion yesterday and had yet to return.
Jiang Wei knew very well that Zhao Feng would never return.
This was because he was already dead!
"Liu Huan!"
After leaving Zhao Feng's mansion, Jiang Wei went straight to Liu Huan. When he arrived at Liu Huan's mansion, he happened to see a familiar figure walking out.
"Elder Bai Li?"
Jiang Wei was a little surprised when he saw Bai Li Hong walking out of Liu Huan's mansion.
Currently, Bai Li Hong and Liu Huan should be at loggerheads.
After all, Bai Li Hong's Junior Brother was from Mound Hill City. He was the disciple of Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
Jiang Wei knew very well about the enmity between Fang Hui and Liu Huan.
He had even thought that Bai Li Hong might come to him and ask him to kill Liu Huan.
If Bai Li Hong really came to him, he would not be able to reject him.
Although Liu Huan was also an inner court elder in the Moon Illumination Sect, he was nothing compared to Bai Li Hong.
To put it bluntly, if Liu Huan's position in the Moon Illumination Sect was compared to Bai Li Hong's position in the sect, he was not even qualified to clean Bai Li Hong's shoes.
Who was Bai Li Hong?
A Three Star Saint Inscription Master!
In the entire Nine Sect Alliances' district, apart from the Mountainshade Black Market's Saint Inscription Master, there were only two Three Star Saint Inscription Masters.
Due to this reason, no matter if it was him or the other few Moon Illumination Sect's Supreme Elders, they were all very polite when they faced Bai Li Hong. They were afraid that they would offend Bai Li Hong due to some minor details.
In fact, Bai Li Hong was very popular in the eyes of the other eight great sects and the Mountainshade Black Market.
All these years, the eight great sects and the Mountainshade Black Market had extended an olive branch to Bai Li Hong, but they were all rejected by him. The reason he rejected them was because he felt a sense of belonging to the Moon Illumination Sect and he was grateful to the Moon Illumination Sect for taking care of him all these years.
Due to this reason, the group of Moon Illumination Sect's high-ranking officials, including Jiang Wei, the Sect Leader of Moon Illumination Sect, had always maintained a sense of propriety when they faced Bai Li Hong.
Just like now, when Jiang Wei greeted Bai Li Hong, a rare gentle smile appeared on his stern face.
"Sect Leader."
Bai Li Hong was surprised to see Jiang Wei. "Sect Master, are you here to look for Elder Liu Huan?"
"Exactly."
Jiang Wei nodded with a smile.
"Then I won't disturb Sect Master any longer."
Bai Li Hong said goodbye to Jiang Wei and left.
Now that half a day had passed, he was no longer worried that Liu Huan would be able to catch up with his junior brother who was on his way back to his hometown.
Meanwhile, in Liu Huan's mansion, Liu Huan, who had just sent Bai Li Hong off, turned around and heard a stuttering voice. "Sect … Sect Leader!"
The stuttering voice came from an inner court disciple standing at the entrance of Liu Huan's mansion. He was also Liu Huan's in-name disciple.
Of course, a nominal disciple was actually just someone who did odd jobs, and their status was completely incomparable to a personal disciple.
"Sect Leader?"
Liu Huan was shocked when he heard the stuttering voice coming from behind. He immediately turned around.
With just a glance, he saw a tall and majestic middle-aged man standing nearby looking at him calmly. "Elder Liu Huan."
"Sect Leader, w-why are you here?"
When Liu Huan saw Jiang Wei, he could not help but have a shocked expression on his face.
In fact, Jiang Wei had never come to his mansion before this.
Although he was an inner court elder, he was ranked at the bottom among the group of inner court elders in the Moon Illumination Sect. Usually, he would not even be part of the decision-making team in the sect. Due to this reason, he rarely had the chance to meet the Sect Leader alone.
Let alone the fact that the Sect Leader personally came to his mansion to look for him.
At this moment, while Liu Huan was overwhelmed by the favor, he respectfully led Jiang Wei in. "Sect Leader, please."
Along the way, Liu Huan nodded and bowed. He looked like an obedient dog that would bite whoever he was told to bite.
The current Liu Huan was like a completely different person compared to the Liu Huan who was flaunting his prowess in Han River City not long ago.
The difference between the two was like heaven and earth!
In the main hall of Liu Huan's mansion, Liu Huan respectfully led Jiang Wei to the main seat while he stood on the lower side.
Jiang Wei did not stand on ceremony and sat down, displaying the aura of a Sect Leader.
"Sect Leader, is there anything I can help you with?"
Liu Huan asked nervously as he stood there.
Although he was flattered that the Sect Leader came to look for him, when he suppressed the excitement in his mind, he realized that things were not as simple as it seemed.
There must be something that the Sect Leader came to look for him.
It was impossible that he was here to have a chat.
Liu Huan immediately thought of Duan Lingtian and Bai Li Hong. 'Don't tell me Bai Li Hong asked the Sect Leader to get rid of me?'
The moment Liu Huan thought of this, his heart jolted.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought of this possibility before, but so what if he thought of it?
Could he leave the Moon Illumination Sect?
He, Liu Huan, had been in the Moon Illumination Sect all his life and had long rooted himself in the sect. He was unwilling to leave the sect to make a living.
Due to this reason, he had always hoped that Bai Li Hong would not do that.
After all, he was very cooperative when Bai Li Hong came to threaten him previously. He did not show any resistance at all.
"It must be because of something else."
After taking a deep breath, Liu Huan, who was feeling uneasy, began to comfort himself.
"Did you look for Elder Zhao Feng after he came out of closed-door cultivation?"
Jiang Wei looked at Liu Huan and asked nonchalantly.
"Yes."
Although Liu Huan did not know why Jiang Wei asked this, he nodded and answered.
This was not a secret.
Many people in Zhao Feng's mansion knew that he had gone to see Zhao Feng.
'Didn't Zhao Feng go after Duan Lingtian? Why is the Sect Leader asking about Zhao Feng at such a coincidence? '
Liu Huan thought it was strange.
"Do you know that Elder Zhao Feng left yesterday?"
Jiang Wei asked again.
"No."
Liu Huan shook his head with a confused expression on his face. "Sect Leader, did something happen to Elder Zhao Feng?"
Naturally, he knew that Zhao Feng had left the sect yesterday and was lurking outside.
However, how could he admit that he knew about it?
After all, the matter of him and Zhao Feng conspiring to kill Duan Ling Tian couldn't be brought out into the open.
"Elder Zhao Feng is dead."
Jiang Wei looked at Liu Huan and said nonchalantly.
Elder Zhao Feng was dead!
When Jiang Wei's words entered Liu Huan's ears, it was like a sudden clap of thunder. He was so shocked that he could not regain his senses for a long time.
"Elder Zhao Feng … is dead?"
When Liu Huan regained his senses, he was also dumbfounded. His eyes were filled with shock, and he did not know what to do.
Naturally, this was Liu Huan's instinctive reaction.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Wei realized that Zhao Feng's death had nothing to do with Liu Huan. Based on Liu Huan's expression, it did not seem like he was lying.
However, how could he have known that Liu Huan was frightened because he had never thought that something like this would happen?
Zhao Feng was dead!
He knew very well what Zhao Feng had gone to do.
Originally, as far as he was concerned, Zhao Feng would surely be able to achieve his objective and kill Duan Ling Tian who was a great threat to him.
He was already waiting for Zhao Feng to return so that he could hold a celebratory feast.
However, before Zhao Feng returned, the Sect Leader had already come to look for him. Moreover, he had brought him such shocking news.
'Zhao Feng went to kill Duan Lingtian … Bai Li Hong has been with me all this while, so it's impossible for him to have done it. In other words, someone else must have killed Elder Zhao Feng? '
The moment Liu Huan thought of this, he shuddered again.
Naturally, it did not cross his mind that it was Duan Lingtian who had killed Zhao Feng.
Even if Duan Lingtian had good innate talent and had broken through to the Saint Rudiment Stage, Liu Huan did not care about him at all.
From the beginning until the end, he had regarded Duan Lingtian as an ant.
If it was not for Bai Li Hong, Duan Lingtian would have died a long time ago. Even if he did not die in his hands, he would have died in the hands of the Mountainshade Black Market's assassins.
'Zhao Feng is dead … He must have offended some powerhouse on his way here and was killed by that powerhouse! I wonder if that powerhouse had already killed Duan Lingtian before he killed Zhao Feng. '
At this moment, Liu Huan was not thinking about Zhao Feng's death. He was more concerned about whether Duan Lingtian was still alive or not.
Whether Zhao Feng was dead or not had nothing to do with him. He did not care at all.
What he cared about was whether Duan Lingtian was still alive or not.
As long as Duan Lingtian was still alive, he would not be able to eat or sleep in peace.
From the beginning until the end, not only did Liu Huan not think it was Duan Lingtian who had killed Zhao Feng, but he also did not think the powerhouse who had killed Zhao Feng had anything to do with Duan Lingtian.
In his eyes, Duan Lingtian was just a country boy.
If he was not a country boy, how could he have become the disciple of his sworn enemy, Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City, who had a lowly position?
How could a country boy have such a powerhouse protecting him?
Naturally, it was not that he did not think it was possible that Bai Li Hong had hired a powerhouse to protect Duan Lingtian. However, when he thought about it again, he felt that something was amiss.
If Bai Li Hong had really hired a powerhouse who was strong enough to kill Zhao Feng to protect Duan Lingtian, why would he stay here for half a day to watch over him and prevent him from leaving the sect to chase after Duan Lingtian?
Due to this reason, he ruled out this possibility.
In this case, the only possibility he had was that a powerhouse who had nothing to do with Duan Lingtian had killed Zhao Feng.
"Keep this to yourself. Don't tell anyone about it," Jiang Wei said indifferently as he looked at Liu Huan.
Jiang Wei glanced at Liu Huan indifferently. As Liu Huan repeatedly responded, Jiang Wei's figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, Liu Huan secretly broke out in cold sweat.
"I hope Zhao Feng has already killed Duan Lingtian before he was killed … Otherwise, I'll have to put in more effort in the future."
Liu Huan muttered to himself.
"However, Zhao Feng was really unlucky. He was killed the first time he came out after being in closed-door cultivation for so long … However, it's fortunate that I'm not the one who chased after Duan Lingtian this time. Otherwise, I might be the one who died. "
