"Big Brother Xiao Yang, who is so vicious to make things difficult for you? We just entered this place not long ago. Logically speaking, we haven't offended anyone yet."
Xiao Dalei frowned and asked. Thinking about this question, he immediately had some guesses. Thinking of this, he revealed an expression of disbelief and looked at Xiao Yang with a dumbfounded expression.
He exclaimed, "Could it be …"
"Shh."
Xiao Yang interrupted him. Before he had any evidence, he had to be careful with his words so that he wouldn't be caught red-handed.
How could he not have his own judgment and guesses?
Dawn of the next day.
Xiao RiYang was restless as he walked in his room.
He already knew what happened last night. Xiao Duyi's assassination failed and was captured alive by Xiao Yang. He was now in the hands of the guard captain.
The guard captain had solemnly stated that he would investigate this matter to the end. Even the alchemist Yao Lao had made an announcement.
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before the truth came to light.
In addition, his identity token had been taken away by the guard captain. He was already at his wit's end.
If he was traced, it would be a dead end.
The only way now was to stall for time.
On the next day.
He hurriedly walked towards the prison cell.
The guard at the door of the prison cell was like a senior assistant. Of course, he didn't dare to stop him and quickly bowed.
Xiao RiYang walked straight into the prison cell and went straight to the cell where Xiao Duyi was.
The guard captain was interrogating Xiao Duyi. However, Xiao Duyi didn't confess. His body was already covered with scars. It was a tragic sight.
"Brother RiYang, why are you looking for this old man?"
The guard captain saw Xiao RiYang walking over from afar. He couldn't help but frown and ask in confusion.
Xiao RiYang glanced at Xiao Duyi indifferently and said in a deep voice, "Captain, perhaps I have a way to make him talk. I am also very angry about the assassination of my senior assistant. I am also worried about my own safety."
The guard captain was a little hesitant. However, his status was lower than Xiao RiYang's. Plus, it was his own fault for failing to protect Xiao RiYang. If Xiao RiYang pursued this matter, then he would have to bear the blame.
In order to save trouble, he simply said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
"All of you can leave. Don't worry, I won't kill him," Xiao RiYang said indifferently.
The guard captain and the others had no choice but to wave their hands and take the guards away.
After these people left, Xiao RiYang personally walked in front of Xiao Duyi and looked at him with concern. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
At this point, Xiao Duyi was basically done for. However, whether or not he would be implicated was still up for discussion.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Duyi glanced at Xiao RiYang with bloodshot eyes.
At least until now, he hadn't betrayed Xiao RiYang.
He thought that perhaps the other party had come to silence him so that he could get rid of him once and for all.
Xiao RiYang frowned and touched Xiao Duyi's injuries. He sighed and said apologetically, "I can't save you."
Xiao Duyi forced a smile. This was a very obvious matter. What was there to say? When he was defeated by Xiao Yang, he already understood that he was finished.
He didn't say anything, and there was nothing to say. This was all within his expectations.
"How about this, you wait for me for a day. I will think of a way to get rid of Xiao Yang. Then, you can push all the blame to Xiao Yang."
Xiao RiYang carefully arranged with a serious expression.
Xiao Duyi nodded in agreement. He originally wanted to get rid of Xiao Yang, but unfortunately, he failed. However, if Xiao RiYang made a move, he would be happy to see it happen. As for delaying for a day, it was completely possible.
"This is a special pardon for you. Take it well. You can ask to go out tomorrow."
Xiao RiYang was relieved when he heard the other party's agreement. He was also afraid that the other party would expose him.
This special pardon was given to him after he saved an alchemist. He didn't have the chance to use it. He didn't expect to use it here.
Although it was a special pardon, it was only a special pardon for an alchemist. It was only effective in the Poison Medicine Pavilion. Moreover, the content of the special pardon was very narrow and strict.
It was only a day's worth of punishment.
"Okay."
Xiao Duyi took the special pardon order and gratefully responded.
Xiao RiYang walked out of the cell and saw the guard captain outside.
"How is it?"
The guard captain hurried over and looked at Xiao RiYang with a hopeful expression.
Xiao RiYang smiled and revealed a confident look. He said calmly, "Don't worry, Xiao Duyi is very cooperative. He will definitely confess tomorrow. Captain, please slow down for a day. The result will naturally be known tomorrow."
"This …"
The guard captain was a little hesitant. He frowned and thought about the serious relationship.
Right at this moment, Xiao RiYang took out a few elixirs and handed them over. "Don't worry, the truth will come to light tomorrow. It's just that we need to slow down a little today. Moreover, if we don't have an agreement with him, even if we kill him today, there won't be any effect."
He threatened and bribed.
The guard captain immediately surrendered and nodded. "Alright, let's slow down."
He then turned around and instructed everyone not to speak of this matter.
Xiao RiYang directly walked towards Xiao Yang's residence.
When he reached the entrance of the residence, he shouted at Xiao Yang, "Xiao Yang, senior assistants also have a challenge arena. I, Xiao RiYang, want to issue a challenge to you."
This voice was released through his cultivation and spread to the surroundings. Everyone within a radius of 10,000 feet could hear it clearly.
Many people were discussing.
"Oh my god, he is issuing a life and death challenge to the senior assistant."
"This hasn't happened for many years. What kind of hatred do they have for them to go to such an extent?"
"From what I know, Xiao Yang is just a new senior assistant while Xiao RiYang is already a senior assistant. Why would the two of them have a conflict? I really don't understand."
"Won't we know once we go and take a look?"
Many senior assistants left the residence and headed towards Xiao Yang's location.
Because the commotion was too big, even Yao Lao, who was an alchemist, was alarmed.
Although Yao Lao was an alchemist, he was also a manager. Naturally, he couldn't sit by and do nothing.
He unleashed his cultivation and instantly arrived here.
When he saw Xiao RiYang again, he was a little unhappy. Previously, he was almost killed by Xiao RiYang.
However, Xiao RiYang had done him a favor before and he wasn't an ungrateful person. Therefore, he took care of Xiao RiYang again and again.
"What are all of you gathered here for?"
Yao Lao didn't get angry, but he was imposing and had the dignity of a superior.
Xiao RiYang knew that time didn't wait for him and he didn't have much time left. He immediately said, "Reporting to Yao Lao, senior assistant Xiao RiYang wants to issue a life and death challenge to Xiao Yang."
