That's right, tell me about the situation at that time The Great Elder nodded.
This... Elder Feng looked at Elder Fang, but for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
What? Could it be that you don't even know how you killed Cheng Yu? Or are you just making up a lie to deceive me? "The Great Elder shouted again in a stern voice.
"That's not it! Great Elder, the situation at that time was like this. We met Cheng Yu in the Cultivation World's Mysterious Sky Sect, and in the end, we knocked Cheng Yu down into the bottomless abyss of the Mysterious Sky Sect, so we really don't know if Cheng Yu is dead or not.
Therefore, after we recovered from our injuries, we didn't rush back to report. Instead, we made a trip to the Cheng Family. We had been there for nearly a year. What we can be sure of is that Cheng Yu had never appeared in the past five years.
In addition, when Cheng Yu was knocked down into the abyss by us, he was already on the verge of death. We thought that Cheng Yu should be dead, but we didn't see Cheng Yu's body, so I was a little hesitant. I don't know how to explain this to the Great Elder Feng said loudly.
After listening to Elder Feng's explanation, he didn't speak immediately, but his eyes kept looking back and forth between the few of them.
Is that really the case? The Great Elder shouted at them.
Great Elder, this is indeed the case. Although we didn't see Cheng Yu's body, we later returned to the abyss to investigate again.
However, we couldn't reach the bottom of the abyss, so we could only return helplessly. Finally, we went to the Cheng Family to inquire about Cheng Yu's news.
Although the Cheng Family seems to be peaceful now, I can be sure that after that battle, Cheng Yu has never appeared in the Cheng Family's territory again.
Therefore, we can only conclude that Cheng Yu is indeed dead. Grand Elder, please investigate Elder Fang replied.
En, I believe you for the time being The Great Elder nodded and said.
"Thank you, Great Elder!" Everyone was delighted.
However, we shouldn't be happy too early. I will still send people to investigate this matter. If it is really as you said, then I will really believe you. But if you are lying to me, you should know what the consequences are. The Great Elder said with a calm face.
"We understand!" The few of them broke out in cold sweat.
Although they knew that as long as they could walk out of the Great Elder's residence safely, the Great Elder wouldn't punish them even if he found out that this matter was fake. However, the Great Elder's words still sent a chill down their spines.
"Although you have done a great service, I will not reward you for now because none of the 30,000 people you took with you came back. After I investigate everything, I will reward you and punish you. Do you accept?" The Great Elder looked at them and said.
"We will listen to Great Elder's arrangements!" Everyone said.
"You can leave first!" The Great Elder waved his hand and dismissed them.
"Yes!" Elder Fang and the rest heaved a sigh of relief and left the hall with their heads lowered.
At this moment, only the Great Elder and Chief Long were left in the hall!
"Do you think they are telling the truth?" the Great Elder asked.
"This subordinate has been making wild guesses, but this subordinate believes that even if they were given ten thousand times the courage, they would not dare to deceive the Great Elder. After all, as long as the Great Elder sends someone to investigate, they will not be able to escape death! " Chief Long actually had some doubts at the beginning. However, after thinking about it carefully, coupled with what they had just said, he was more convinced.
"En. Actually, I was just scaring them just now. I did not send anyone to look for Cheng Yu. Therefore, from their words and actions, they should not be lying to me.
It's just that I was unable to personally avenge my son. The resentment in my heart has always been difficult to quell. "When the Great Elder thought of his dead son, his expression became extremely sad and resentful
At that time, because the elders were suspicious of each other, they either sent their sons or their trusted aides. However, who knew that in the end, other than the Second Elder's son, Meng Gaoyang, who escaped with one of his legs crippled, the others all died in Cheng Yu's hands.
Therefore, he naturally would not forget this hatred.
Now that Elder Fang and the rest had returned to report and heard that Cheng Yu had been killed, his heart finally felt a little better.
Unfortunately, they were unable to capture Cheng Yu alive and let him personally avenge his son. It was not perfect.
"Great Elder, please restrain your grief. If the Young Master knows that the Great Elder has already avenged him, I believe he will be able to rest in peace!" Chief Long said.
"Hmph! Even if Cheng Yu is dead, I will not let the Cheng Family off. I want him to die with everlasting regret. Even if he is still alive, I want him to see how his Cheng Family is annihilated!
Quickly give the order to the palace near the Cheng Family. Now that Cheng Yu is dead, let them send troops to annihilate the Cheng Family for me! "The Great Elder said coldly.
"Yes! I will arrange it right now! "Chief Long nodded and quickly left the hall.
"Ziyu, father will not let you die in vain!" The Great Elder supported himself on the chair and stood up. The chair beneath him instantly turned into powder. His eyes were filled with hatred.
At this moment, Elder Fang and the rest quickly left the Great Elder's mansion and ran back to their residence to call Cheng Yu out.
"Young Master, we are already in the inner court. You must be careful. Since you have more or less understood the situation, you should quickly leave this place. This is not a place to stay for long. The longer you stay, the easier it is for you to expose yourself! "Elder Fang said.
"Don't worry! I know what I am doing! " After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he kept the elders into his magic treasure and turned back into Elder Yun's appearance.
Not for anything else, but for Elder Fang and Elder Yang to have a higher status. Everything that happened in the Great Elder's mansion just now was clearly seen by him in the Immortal Demon Tower.
If he turned into Elder Fang or Elder Yang, he reckoned that the Great Elder would come looking for them at any time.
Compared to Elder Fang and the rest, Elder Yun's identity was obviously more inconspicuous.
Although Elder Yun's identity was not as good as Elder Fang and the rest, with such an open and aboveboard identity, at least he could move more freely.
Elder Fang and the rest thought that Cheng Yu had only come to the inner court to understand the situation, but they did not know how ambitious Cheng Yu was.
If possible, Cheng Yu even wanted to use this opportunity to kill the emperor of the dynasty. If this plan succeeded, he would not need to go through so much trouble to find the Yang Mirror. He could immediately let the Cheng Family send troops to the dynasty.
However, he also knew that this plan was not only dangerous, but the chances of success were also very low.
