Zhu Honggong took half a step forward and continued to say, "Ever since I left the Evil Sky Pavilion, I've never done anything wrong to master. Last time, you asked me to investigate the kidnapping case of the Ci Family, and I've found out that someone used the Tiger Gang as a pretext to frame us! "
"I didn't ask about your Little Junior Sister's clansmen. Why are you so eager to answer me?" Mingshi Yin asked.
"…"
"I won't be able to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River."
"Alright, I know you didn't do anything to the Ci Family. You don't have the guts to do that. "Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes.
Zhu Honggong was overjoyed when he heard that. He said flatteringly, "Fourth Senior Brother, you're a sensible one. Master didn't say anything, did he? "
"Master doesn't care about you at all. Don't overestimate yourself. "
At this point, he said solemnly, "Let's get back to business. You've seen the box. Do you know where Seventh Brother is now? "
Zhu Honggong chuckled.
"You must be joking, Fourth Senior Brother. How would I know where Seventh Senior Brother is? But you can go to the Crouching Dragon. I heard that the headquarters of the Darknet is there."
"Old Eighth, you weren't this scheming in the past … Are you trying to harm me?" Mingshi Yin suddenly lowered his voice.
At the same time as his voice fell.
Applause came from behind the screen.
The elegant and handsome Si Wuya appeared before the two of them.
"Old Seventh?" Mingshi Yin glared at Old Eighth. "How dare you say you don't know?!"
Si Wuya walked up slowly and bowed. "Greetings, Fourth Senior Brother."
Although Si Wuya was Mingshi Yin's junior brother, Si Wuya's nonchalant demeanor made Mingshi Yin feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps, it was because smart people were not easy to control. He preferred to stay with Zhu Hong. However, since he was the Senior Brother, there was nothing for him to worry about.
"Old Seventh, you're a cunning one. You've been eavesdropping for so long," Mingshi Yin said.
"You must be joking, Fourth Senior Brother … I've been in the Tiger Ridge all this time, so it's normal for fellow disciples to visit each other and talk about their daily lives. However, I didn't expect you to grace us with your presence, Fourth Senior Brother. "Si Wuya walked slowly to the left. He straightened his robes and sat down.
"Since you heard it, I won't beat around the bush. Lend me your Peacock Plume, "Mingshi Yin said.
Si Wuya's gaze fell on the mysterious box.
He looked at it for a moment.
It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, but he was shocked. This was the first time he had seen such a strange box.
His master had countless treasures, so it was normal for him to have such a chest.
"I can lend you the Peacock Plume … However, there's something I'd like to sincerely discuss with you, Fourth Senior Brother," Si Wuya said calmly.
"That won't be necessary. I'm different from you. Since you can borrow it, it's for the best … Here, place the Peacock Plume in this slot. "Mingshi Yin was extremely cautious. He did not want to be bewitched by Old Seventh.
Something stirred in Si Wuya's heart. However, his expression remained calm as he said, "It's been a while, Fourth Senior Brother. You're much more cautious than before."
As he spoke, he lifted his right hand.
The Peacock Plume floated in his palm and rotated 360 degrees.
Zhu Honggong, Old Eighth, was so envious that his eyes turned red.
"I wish I could have a heaven-grade weapon as well," Old Eighth muttered.
Si Wuya grabbed the Peacock Plume and walked up to the mysterious box. He said, "If there's a treasure in the box that can control us, would you still open it?"
Mingshi Yin was taken aback.
Si Wuya noticed the change in Mingshi Yin's expression and deliberately slowed down his movements.
Mingshi Yin raised his hand. "Wait."
"You have something to say, Fourth Senior Brother?"
"I've always been curious … Why did Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, and you suddenly leave the Evil Sky Pavilion?"
Si Wuya was not surprised when he heard this question. He put the Peacock Plume away and placed his hands on his back as he said, "Fourth Senior Brother, if someone holds a knife to your neck and you can't fight back, would you run?"
Mingshi Yin was stunned. He did not answer.
Si Wuya returned to his seat and sat down slowly. He said cheerfully, "The Evil Sky Pavilion has too many enemies. Ever since the ten great elites attacked Golden Court Mountain, they've been waiting for master's great limit. At that time, even if Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother hadn't left, we wouldn't have been able to stop the locust plague. "
Mingshi Yin snorted and said, "I'm afraid those people are worse than locusts."
"Are you that confident in master?" Si Wuya asked calmly.
"Shut up!"
Mingshi Yin suddenly raised his voice. He stared at Si Wuya and reprimanded him, "Old Seventh, don't you forget who you are! I don't blame Old Eighth for being deceived by you. But can't you tell right from wrong? Can't you tell right from wrong? "
It was normal for a senior brother to reprimand his junior brother.
However, Si Wuya's expression remained indifferent when he heard this.
"Since you know I can tell right from wrong, Fourth Senior Brother, how do you know that the place I'm standing on isn't white?"
"You …" Mingshi Yin waved his hand and said, "You're good at quibbling."
"You flatter me, Fourth Senior Brother."
"In any case, it's a fact that master has taught you his cultivation base!" Mingshi Yin said.
Si Wuya smiled faintly. He clapped his hands and said, "It's hard to imagine that you're so protective of master after such a short time, Fourth Senior Brother."
Compared to the old Mingshi Yin, the changes were so great that they exceeded his imagination!
"I'm different from you." Mingshi Yin sat down and picked up the remaining grapes on the plate. He deliberately spat the grape skins in front of Si Wuya.
Si Wuya looked at the mysterious box and said, "Fourth Senior Brother, if you ask me to open this box as a senior brother, I'll open it without any hesitation. But if it's for something else, forgive me for not being able to comply. "
Mingshi Yin had just calmed down when he suddenly exploded.
Pa!
With a slap of his palm, the table beside him shattered.
He moved at lightning speed as he struck his palm at Si Wuya with energy.
Bang, bang, bang!
Si Wuya pushed away from the ground lightly and retreated with ease.
With one hand on his back, he parried Mingshi Yin's energy winds with the other.
Bang, bang, bang!
In the blink of an eye, the entire stronghold was torn apart by the crisscrossing Gang Qi!
One advancing and the other retreating, the battle was endless!
Zhu Honggong was stunned.
He hastily rose to his feet and waved his hands as he shouted, "Senior Brothers … Quick, stop! If this goes on, my little stronghold will be finished! "
The people from Tiger Ridge kept retreating.
They could only watch from afar, not daring to intervene.
Bam! Bam!
Bam! Another three palm strikes landed on Si Wuya's protective energy.
Si Wuya flipped backward and stood on the spot.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Congratulations, Fourth Senior Brother, you've broken through to the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!"
"You're all treacherous. As your Senior Brother, I have the responsibility to clean you up!"
Mingshi Yin stomped his feet.
Boom!
Footprints appeared. Like a fired arrow, Mingshi Yin shot toward Si Wuya.
