Qin Feiyang glanced at the door and said with a smile, "Senior, it's better to set up a barrier."
"So cautious?"
The Vice Pavilion Master was surprised.
Qin Feiyang said, "This is a serious matter. I have to be cautious."
"Okay."
The Vice Pavilion Master looked at Qin Feiyang deeply, then waved his hand, and a barrier appeared.
Outside.
Shangguan Qiu was unhappy.
He wanted to eavesdrop, but it turned out that he was guarding against a thief.
Inside the barrier.
Fire Lotus sat aside obediently.
Qin Feiyang took out the Jade of Qinghai and tea leaves, and said with a smile, "Girl, help us make tea."
"Okay."
Fire Lotus nodded with a smile, got up and squatted aside, and began to get busy.
The Vice Pavilion Master looked at the mask on Fire Lotus's face curiously.
Why was she wearing a mask?
"Senior."
Qin Feiyang said.
The Vice Pavilion Master immediately came back to his senses and looked at Qin Feiyang.
Qin Feiyang asked, "More than 10,000 years ago, a Level 9 Soulvein was born in the Sky Dragon Sea, right?"
"Yes."
"This Soulvein is currently in my Treasure Pavilion."
The Vice Pavilion Master nodded.
"Senior, you are so domineering."
"Back then, all the major forces swarmed over, including the former Palace Master of the Nine Heavens Palace, who is also the son of the Great Elder."
"Senior, you were able to suppress all the heroes and snatch the Soulvein. Such heaven-defying means, I really admire you."
Qin Feiyang cupped his hands and smiled.
The Vice Pavilion Master smiled and said, "After all, I was young and full of vigor, but now I'm old and can't be compared to back then."
"Senior, you are too humble."
"However, although you obtained the Soulvein, there were a lot of troubles later on."
Qin Feiyang said.
Hearing this, the Vice Pavilion Master touched his lame leg, and a trace of hostility flashed in his eyes.
But he hid it well.
Even Qin Feiyang did not notice.
However, his subconscious action of touching his lame leg caught Qin Feiyang's attention.
Qin Feiyang could not help but speculate.
Could it be that this lame leg had something to do with what happened back then?
The Deputy Pavilion Master smiled and said, "Little friend, let's not beat around the bush and get straight to the point!"
"Alright."
Qin Feiyang nodded and said, "All those years ago, the Grand Elder's son was heavily injured by you, and he was attacked by sea beasts on the way, causing him to lose his life in the Heavenly Dragon Sea. Senior, you probably haven't forgotten this matter, right?"
The Vice Pavilion Master remained silent for a while. Then, he sighed, "This old man wants to forget, but I just can't. You must have noticed this leg of mine, right?"
Qin Feiyang's heart trembled. "I'm all ears."
The Vice Pavilion Master patted his crippled leg and smiled, "This leg was caused by your Nine Heavens Palace's Great Elder."
"What?"
Qin Feiyang's expression suddenly changed.
Fire Lotus was also surprised.
"Back then, the First Elder killed his way into the Treasure Pavilion. Although the Pavilion Master stopped him and saved his old life, in the end, he paid the price of one of his legs."
The Vice Pavilion Master sighed.
Qin Feiyang asked suspiciously, "With Senior's cultivation, even if it's shattered, it can be reborn. But why is it crippled?"
"It's a type of poison."
"The First Elder personally concocted it."
"No pill, not even a Deity Detoxification Pill, can remove it."
The Vice Pavilion Master said.
"The First Elder knows how to concoct poison?"
Qin Feiyang and Fire Lotus were both surprised.
"You've just entered the Nine Heavens Palace, so it's normal that you don't know the methods of your First Elder."
"He's actually an expert in using poison. In the entire Northern Region, if he says he's second, no one would dare to say they're first."
"And the poison he concocted, apart from himself, no one can remove it."
"This old man was poisoned with a type of poison called 'Bone-corroding Spirit Thread'."
"This type of poison, just like its name, is hard to disperse."
"Once it enters the body, it will fuse with all the bones in the body. It can't be refined or dispelled."
"Others think that this old man has been cultivating in seclusion all these years, but in reality, this old man has been suppressing this poison."
"Because if I don't suppress it, this poison won't just corrode this thigh, it will corrode all the bones in my body."
The Vice Pavilion Master sighed deeply, looking a little lonely.
"Bone-corroding Spirit Thread …"
Qin Feiyang mumbled, feeling a chill down his spine.
He never thought that the First Elder would have such a terrifying side to him.
"Brother, the tea is ready."
Fire Lotus poured two cups of tea, pushing one cup in front of Qin Feiyang and the other in front of the Vice Pavilion Master.
"Thank you."
"Miss, I don't know if it's an illusion, but why do I feel that your temperament is a little familiar?"
The Vice Pavilion Master looked at Fire Lotus suspiciously.
"Is that so?"
Fire Lotus seemed a little flustered.
But Qin Feiyang was surprised and asked, "Senior, you know Fire Lotus?"
"No, I don't."
The Vice Pavilion Master shook his head and looked at Fire Lotus. "Miss, why don't you take off your mask and let this old man take a look?"
"This …"
Fire Lotus hesitated for a moment and waved it off with a smile. "Forget it, I won't cause trouble for you guys. You guys continue."
Qin Feiyang said, "Fire Lotus, let this senior take a look. He's experienced and knowledgeable. Perhaps he might know you?"
"That's not good!"
"What if he's up to no good?"
Fire Lotus muttered to herself.
"That's true."
"You can't judge a book by its cover."
Qin Feiyang mumbled and looked at the Vice Pavilion Master with a smile. "Senior, please have some tea."
The Vice Pavilion Master did not insist. He picked up the teacup and sniffed it. Then, he tasted the tea and praised, "Not bad. These tea leaves should have been cultivated in a herb farm, right?"
Qin Feiyang said, "Seems like you're also a person of the Way of Tea, senior!"
"To be honest, I like to drink tea when I'm free."
"Actually, I have such tea leaves too. Perhaps they're even better than this."
The Vice Pavilion Master laughed hoarsely.
"Is that so?"
Qin Feiyang's eyes lit up.
"Haha …"
"Seems like I've met a kindred spirit this time."
Looking at Qin Feiyang's greedy look, the Vice Pavilion Master could not help but laugh.
Qin Feiyang smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's get down to business. Actually, there's something else behind the death of the Great Elder's son."
"Something else?"
The Vice Pavilion Master was slightly taken aback. He immediately put down the teacup and looked at Qin Feiyang in surprise.
Qin Feiyang said, "The Great Elder's son was not attacked by sea beasts."
"Then what is it?"
The Vice Pavilion Master suddenly rose to his feet. His slightly cloudy eyes instantly became extremely spirited.
There was even a terrifying sharpness in them!
"It's Feng Yuan!"
"He secretly killed the Great Elder's son!"
"He also killed all the people who came with him!"
Qin Feiyang said.
"What?"
The Vice Pavilion Master was stunned.
Qin Feiyang did not speak again. While drinking tea, he patiently waited for the Vice Pavilion Master to calm down.
Because no one would be able to calm down when they suddenly heard such news.
"Feng Yuan …"
"Why would it be him …"
"Why would he do this …"
The Vice Pavilion Master murmured.
His old face was full of disbelief.
After a long time, the Vice Pavilion Master finally calmed down and slowly returned to his seat. He looked up at Qin Feiyang and frowned slightly.
Qin Feiyang said, "Senior, are you thinking that I have a grudge against Feng Yuan, so I fabricated such a rumor and asked you to help me deal with him? In other words, I'm borrowing a knife to kill him. "
"You even know what I'm thinking. Little friend, your insight is really amazing!"
The Vice Pavilion Master laughed.
"Senior, you flatter me."
"If it were me, I would think the same, so it's not difficult to guess."
Qin Feiyang said.
The Vice Pavilion Master said with a smile, "Then, little friend, please show me strong evidence."
Qin Feiyang asked, "Does Ge Yong count?"
"Ge Yong?"
The Vice Pavilion Master frowned.
"Ge Yong is Feng Yuan's confidant, but now he's under my control. I learned this from him."
Qin Feiyang said.
"Yes, yes, yes."
"There is such a person."
"I heard that this time, you were able to fight back against Feng Wenhai because of him."
The Vice Pavilion Master nodded in realization and asked, "Then does he have solid evidence in his hands?"
"No solid evidence."
"But I peeked into Ge Yong's inner thoughts, and he didn't lie at all."
Qin Feiyang said.
"No solid evidence …"
The Vice Pavilion Master pondered for a moment and shook his head. "Little friend, if you say that there's no solid evidence, it's just your one-sided story. How do you expect me to believe you?"
"I know that these words alone can't make you believe me."
"But I can help you look for evidence."
Qin Feiyang said with a smile.
"Help me look for evidence?"
The Vice Pavilion Master was stunned and said with a smile, "Little friend, if I may offend you, I don't think you're such a kind person."
"Of course."
"Who would be so free to meddle in other people's business?"
"Moreover, the target this time is Feng Yuan, and it has something to do with the First Elder."
Qin Feiyang said.
"Quite direct."
"Then tell me your conditions!"
The Vice Pavilion Master smiled and seemed to admire Qin Feiyang's straightforward character.
"First, I hope that you can help me at critical moments in the future."
"Second, cancel the cooperation with Mu Tianyang and let Shangguan Qiu work with me."
"Third, the deal between me and Shangguan Qiu must be in Soul Stones."
"These are the conditions of this Junior."
Qin Feiyang said.
"This …"
The Vice Pavilion Master hesitated.
Qin Feiyang said with a smile, "I believe that these three conditions are not difficult for you."
"The second and third conditions are not difficult either."
"I know a little about the cooperation between Little Qiu and Mu Tianyang. Since you've made such a request, it means that you also have the Nine Qu Yellow Dragon Pill and the Nine Transformation Dragon Blood Pill."
"So it doesn't matter who I work with."
"But the first condition is a little difficult for me."
"You know that I have a grudge with the First Elder. If I help you, the First Elder will be unhappy."
"I don't care."
"After all, he won't dare to do anything to me now."
"But you're different."
"You're a disciple of the Ninth Heaven Palace. If he wants to make things difficult for you, you'll have a hard time in the Ninth Heaven Palace!"
The Vice Pavilion Master said.
"To be honest, I'm already having a hard time in the Ninth Heaven Palace. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you."
Qin Feiyang smiled bitterly.
"What do you mean?"
The Vice Pavilion Master looked at him curiously.
"This …"
On the contrary, Qin Feiyang hesitated.
