As soon as Bai Xiaowen's words fell, Li Shuyi and Han Xu tacitly surrounded him. Qiao Rui also took out his emerald soul bamboo flute. The atmosphere in the small alley immediately became tense.
"No, I'm not …" Tu Mengjiao panicked and said repeatedly.
Wu Ang waved his hand and said, "Hold on, Bai Xiaowen. There should be some misunderstanding between you and my Infinite Sword Sect. I know the details of the new Palace Master of the Blood God Palace, Gu Yulian. She's known as the Nine-Tailed Jade Fox and has always been good at bewitching people. Don't be fooled by her. "
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "I already know the truth of the matter. I'm very clear-headed now. The 24 lives of the Duan Shui Manor were all killed by the three thieves, He Xiyuan, Gu Zhen, and Zhangsun Ming. Before they died, they had already confessed. "
Wu Ang opened his mouth and sighed. "Well, even if it's true, it's still the three of them. Our Infinite Sword Sect is a righteous sect, and it's really unfortunate for us to have such scum. But now that the three have been beheaded, Young Master Bai, I hope you can repent and be saved. "
Bai Xiaowen said lightly, "Wu Ang, are you really confused or just pretending to be?"
"What do you mean by that?" Wu Ang was confused.
Bai Xiaowen said, "The massacre of the Duan Shui Manor was not caused by He Xiyuan and the other two. The mastermind behind them is someone else! "
Wu Ang looked shocked. After a moment of silence, he said, "Who is the mastermind?"
"Why ask when you already know the answer?" Bai Xiaowen snorted coldly. "Who else but your Sect Master, Zuo Yunxuan, can order two of the Four Elders of the Infinite Sword Sect and also send out their favorite disciples?"
"No! Master would never do such a thing! "Tu Mengjiao shook her head and refuted loudly with a face full of fear.
Wu Ang also shook his head repeatedly. "That's impossible. Senior Brother Sect Leader's swordsmanship has already reached the peak. To put it bluntly, how could he be interested in a mere Water Cutting Sword Art? He had no reason to do so! Young Master Bai, where did you get this information? "
Bai Xiaowen said, "Gu Zhen personally confessed before he died."
Wu Ang said, "It must be because Gu Zhen was on the verge of death, in order to beg for his life, so he made a false accusation. Perhaps he has another purpose. He wants you to seek revenge from Senior Martial Brother Sect Leader, so that he can use Senior Martial Brother Sect Leader to kill you. "
Bai Xiaowen said indifferently, "How foolish! If you trust Zuo Yunxuan so much, why don't you ask him yourself? "
Bai Xiaowen was just speaking casually, but to his surprise, Wu Ang took it seriously. "Alright, this old man will find Sect Leader Shixiong tonight and confront him face to face. Bai Wen, do you dare to come? "
Bai Xiaowen sneered, "Why would I go? Walk right into the trap? Or can you save my life from Zuo Yunxuan's sword? "
Wu Ang didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Bai Xiaowen said, "Well, you can go ahead and ask. I have my own way to see the process of your answer."
Wu Ang frowned and said, "Are you going to sneak into the West Wind Inn and find Sect Leader Shixiong's room? I advise you not to act smart. Sect Leader Shixiong's internal strength is extremely high, and he has sharp ears and eyes. If you want to sneak in and eavesdrop, you won't be able to hide from his eyes and ears. You'll only bring shame to yourself. It's better to confront him openly. "
Bai Xiaowen snorted and said, "I have my own ideas. You don't have to worry about this."
Wu Ang thought of Bai Xiaowen's strange skills, so he didn't have much doubt. He nodded and said, "Alright, then it's settled. Tonight, I will find Sect Leader Shixiong and ask him about it."
Bai Xiaowen said, "If you ask casually, Zuo Yunxuan will definitely deny it. But I have a good idea. "He whispered to Wu Ang, and the latter frowned as he listened.
…
Nine o 'clock at night was between nine and eleven o' clock.
Wu Ang paced back and forth in the first-class room where Zuo Yunxuan, the Sect Leader of the Infinite Sword Sect, lived. He wanted to knock on the door but hesitated.
In the room, Zuo Yunxuan's voice sounded, "Who's outside?"
Wu Ang gritted his teeth and made up his mind. "Sect Leader Shixiong, it's me, Wu Ang. I want to see you."
"Oh, it's Junior Brother Wu. Come in."
The door opened, and Wu Ang walked into the room and saw Zuo Yunxuan.
"Junior Brother Wu, haven't you slept yet?"
Zuo Yunxuan's bearing was aloof. He looked at Wu Ang with a kind expression on his thin face. After the battle in the Sword-cleansing Valley, the Infinite Sword Sect's vitality had been greatly damaged. Of the famous Four Infinite Elders, only Wu Ang was left. Although Wu Ang was not a trusted aide before, he would definitely treat him as a trusted aide in the future to cultivate their relationship.
Wu Ang cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother, have you recovered from your injuries?"
Zuo Yunxuan nodded slightly. "I've recovered."
"That's good. Senior Brother, I've always wanted to say something, but I don't know if I should say it. "Wu Ang cupped his hands again.
"Do we still need to be entangled with these customs between us?" Zuo Yunxuan said gently, "In front of outsiders, I'm the Sect Leader, so there's a hierarchy. But there are no outsiders here, so Junior Brother can just say it."
Wu Ang coughed. "Senior Brother, were you the mastermind behind the Broken Water Villa incident?"
Zuo Yunxuan didn't expect Wu Ang to be so straightforward. His expression changed slightly, and he frowned. "Junior Brother Wu, why do you say that? The Broken Water Villa was destroyed by the Blood God Palace. Where did you hear these rumors? Hmm? "
Wu Ang shook his head and sighed. "Senior Brother, don't hide it from me. Before I set off for Luanzhou, I accidentally heard Senior Brother Zhangsun, Senior Brother Gu Zhen, and the others having a secret conversation. Among them, there were some words about the Broken Water Villa incident. He Xiyuan announced the Sect Leader's order and asked the two to cooperate with him. Later, the three of them found an excuse to leave for a while. I didn't care at first, but now that I think about it, I understand everything. "
Zuo Yunxuan's expression changed, and he reluctantly said, "Junior Brother Wu, what nonsense are you talking about? I don't understand a single word you said. "
Seeing Zuo Yunxuan's attitude, Wu Ang already understood most of it. He sighed. "Senior Brother, if you really didn't do it, you would have already reprimanded me. Your current expression clearly shows that you're the mastermind behind the massacre of the Duan Shui Villa! Do you still want to deny it? Don't tell me that a dignified Grandmaster of the Sword Dao actually dares to do something that you don't dare to admit? "
A trace of regret flashed in Zuo Yunxuan's heart. It was mainly because Wu Ang was straightforward and didn't give him much time to react. Coupled with the fact that Zuo Yunxuan had a guilty conscience, he exposed himself.
Wu Ang's last sentence of "dare to do something but don't dare to admit" aroused Zuo Yunxuan's arrogance. He snorted and said, "Junior Brother, since you know about it, then keep it a secret for me. I've already got the original copy of the Broken Water Sword Manual. I'll teach it to you after I comprehend this set of fast sword techniques. At that time, Ying Jianfan won't be your opponent. "
Wu Ang's face was full of grief and indignation. "Senior Brother, for a sword manual, you annihilated an entire sect and took more than 20 lives! Why do you still have a clear conscience? "
Zuo Yunxuan coldly said, "What is the Jianghu? It's just the law of the jungle. Chivalry is just bullshit. Junior Brother, don't be too pedantic. "
Wu Ang shook his head again and again. He gritted his teeth and said, "For this sword manual, Bai Wen has formed a blood feud with the orthodox Jianghu. The three of them also lost their lives. Don't you regret it? "
"What's the use of regretting it? That idiot Bai Hanjiang gave birth to a good son. This is indeed beyond my expectations. However, Bai Wen doesn't cultivate internal energy and only relies on some external tools and exotic techniques. His future achievements will be limited, so there's no need to fear him. What's more, I'll end him before he grows up. "
Wu Ang angrily said, "Senior Brother, you've gone too far. I'll reveal the truth about this matter and clear Bai Wen's name! "
Zuo Yunxuan frowned and said, "Junior Brother Wu, can Bai Wen still turn back? Don't be too naive. How many orthodox Jianghu experts have died under his hands during the battle in the Sword Cleansing Valley? Besides, even if you announce it, you'll ruin my reputation and the reputation of the Infinite Sword Sect. What good will it do for you? "
Wu Ang said in a heavy tone, "Senior Brother, this is a matter of principle. Some things can't be seen only based on benefits. Your martial arts are excellent. If you want to kill me, I'm no match for you. But this is the West Wind Inn. King Ming and many Jianghu heroes live nearby. If the sound of fighting is heard, you won't be able to explain it. "
Zuo Yunxuan sighed. "Forget it! You're my Junior Brother after all. At that time, there were five of us, but only you and I are left. How can I bear to kill you? If you want to reveal the truth, then go ahead. "
Wu Ang's heart warmed. He cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother, I …" His eyes suddenly opened wide.
