Hall Master Long, our mission has been completed In response to Hall Master Long's question, Elder Fang hardened his heart and said to Hall Master Long.
Hearing Elder Fang's answer, even Elder Yang and the others were shocked. They all thought that Elder Fang would say that the mission had failed.
At this moment, they didn't understand why Elder Fang would say this. If this was seen through by others, wouldn't they be sentenced to death?
"You succeeded? Are you sure you succeeded? Hall Master Long looked at Elder Fang and then at Elder Yang and the others. His heart was filled with doubt.
Hall Master Long, I took away 30,000 experts from the inner court. Moreover, we also joined forces with the Mysterious Sky Sect of the Cultivation World and paid the price of 30,000 experts to complete the mission. Even we were seriously injured and almost lost our lives. Otherwise, we wouldn't have waited until now to report back Elder Fang said.
Since he had already lied, he might as well go all the way. Moreover, the things he said were half true and half false. There was no need to deliberately fabricate them. It was just that the results were different.
Since that's the case, then I will take you to see the Great Elder to report back! Although Hall Master Long had some doubts in his heart, he saw that Elder Feng's words were so realistic and his eyes didn't flicker at all.
At the same time, he looked at Elder Yang and the others nodding their heads. This made him think that they might have really completed the mission and returned.
"This … Hall Chief Long, can you let us go back and change first? After wandering outside for so many years, we also hope to report to the Great Elder in the best possible manner. It can also be considered as a surprise for him!" Elder Fang said.
"There is no need. Since you have completed your mission, there is no better surprise than this. I believe the Great Elder will not bicker with you. Instead, he will greatly reward you," Hall Chief Long said with a smile.
This... Elder Fang was a little hesitant.
Right now, the most important thing for them was to quickly escape and exchange for Cheng Yu. If they went to see the Great Elder first, it might be very difficult to escape.
Moreover, he didn't know if the Great Elder would see through his lies. If the Great Elder really saw through it, then he really couldn't predict what the result would be.
But if they didn't go, wouldn't they be exposed as well?
They couldn't let the Young Master change into their appearance to meet the Great Elder. If the Great Elder saw through their disguise, it would be even worse.
Thinking of this, he felt that perhaps the best outcome would be for the few of them to meet the Great Elder together.
"Alright, then let's follow Hall Chief Long to report to the Great Elder!" Elder Fang finally agreed.
"Then let's go!" Hall Chief Long nodded and led the way.
Elder Fang and the rest looked at each other and nodded gently.
Although the other elders were very worried, they had no way out now. They couldn't just run away halfway!
It didn't take long before they arrived at the Great Elder's residence. With Hall Chief Long around, it wasn't difficult to enter the Great Elder's residence.
"Wait here for a while. I'll report your situation to the Great Elder!" Hall Chief Long said as he brought Elder Fang and the others to the reception hall of the Great Elder's residence.
"Thank you, Hall Chief Long!" Elder Fang replied.
Once Hall Chief Long left, the few elders broke out in a cold sweat.
"Elder Fang, why did you say that we have completed the mission?" Elder Feng approached Elder Fang and asked softly, afraid that someone would hear it.
"If we said that we didn't complete the mission, I'm afraid we might not be able to walk out of the Great Elder's residence. But if I said that we have completed it, even if they suspect us, they wouldn't be able to verify it in a short period of time. At the very least, we will be safe for the time being. "Elder Fang explained.
"So that's how it is!" Everyone nodded.
"Therefore, later on, everyone must cooperate well. Just like what I said before, no matter what, we must firmly believe that we have completed the mission!
If you really don't understand, it's best to push all the problems to me. "Elder Fang reminded.
"Understood!" Everyone nodded again.
The few of them didn't wait for long in the hall. Very quickly, Hall Chief Long and an old man came over from the other side.
"Greetings to the Great Elder!" Elder Fang and the others quickly went forward to pay their respects.
"I heard that you have completed the mission?" The Great Elder sat on the seat of honor and asked solemnly.
"Yes!" The few of them nodded.
"Then you have already killed that Cheng Yu?" The Great Elder continued to ask.
"Yes!"
"Audacious! You actually dare to lie to me! "However, the Great Elder suddenly shouted.
"This …" Elder Fang was immediately shocked as he looked at the Great Elder with a face full of fear.
"Great Elder, we did not lie to you. We have indeed killed that Cheng Yu!" Elder Fang didn't know where the Great Elder got the news from, but since things had already come to this, he absolutely couldn't admit that he was lying.
"Is that so? But two years ago, I sent some people to the Cultivation World to kill Cheng Yu. Then why is he still alive? "The Great Elder said in a deep voice.
"Still alive? How is that possible? I wonder where did the people that the Great Elder sent out see Cheng Yu? "Elder Fang was shocked. He didn't expect that the Great Elder would actually send people out again.
But very quickly, he had some doubts in his heart. Two years ago, they had already followed the young master out to gain experience. How could they know that the young master was still alive?
"Naturally, they saw him at the Cheng Family!" The Great Elder said in a serious manner.
"Great Elder, you must have been deceived by them. In order to kill Cheng Yu, the 30,000 experts that we brought with us have all been sacrificed. Even the six of us were seriously injured and almost lost our lives. Only then did we finally kill him.
In the past few years, we have been recovering from our injuries. Moreover, before we came back to report, we specially went to the Cheng Family. Although the Cheng Family has been concealing this news, I can be sure that Cheng Yu has not appeared at the Cheng Family's place for at least five years. Therefore, it is impossible for him to still be alive! "Elder Fang said very firmly.
Because the Great Elder's words were obviously lying to them. After they pledged allegiance to the young master, they had never returned to the Cheng Family. In the past five years, they had been training outside, searching for the Heaven Opening Mirror.
Now that the Great Elder said that his people had seen Cheng Yu at the Cheng Family, this was clearly deceiving them
Since the Great Elder's words were false, then there was naturally no need for him to be afraid. He could say it boldly with confidence.
"Is that so? Then tell me, how did you kill Cheng Yu back then? Even if Cheng Yu did not appear at the Cheng Family, how can you be sure that Cheng Yu is already dead? "The Great Elder's expression was calm as he continued to ask.
"Great Elder … …"
"Don't say it. Let him say it!" However, just when Elder Fang was about to speak, he was stopped by the Great Elder. Instead, he pointed at Elder Feng and said.
