Mingshi Yin said,
"What's the relationship between your master and Wei Zhuoyan?"
From Wu Sheng and Wu Guan's tone, he could tell that Wei Zhuoyan and Mo Li did not have a good relationship.
"This …"
Wu Sheng stammered, not daring to speak.
"You keep saying that the incident at Measure Heaven River has nothing to do with your lord … But the harbor where the corpses are being salvaged is guarded by a Great Witchcraft Formation. There was also an expert like Chen Zhu holding down the fort. Do you take me for a fool? "
Thump!
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan knelt down decisively. Their foreheads broke out in cold sweat as they said, "Sir Mo was only following orders. The fishing port existed even before the formation was set up. What happened at the Fish Dragon Village really has nothing to do with my master. If I'm lying, I'll die a horrible death!! "
No matter what they said, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng clearly did not believe them.
The atmosphere became more and more tense.
Just as the two were about to get up,
Pan Zhong, who had not spoken for a long time, said, "Why is the master of the Ten Shamans' descendant named Mo Li?"
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan were taken aback and turned to look at Pan Zhong.
If this was any other occasion, it would be a taboo for Pan Zhong to call Mo Li by her real name.
However, this was the Evil Sky Pavilion. No matter how harsh the words were, they could only listen.
"Everyone can cultivate. Lady Mo Li's cultivation base is profound. We are willing to follow her."
Pan Zhong continued,
"Since ancient times, the Ten Shamans have been experts that everyone respects. They're skilled in medicine and divination. His White Witchcraft had also reached the peak of perfection. Since you're the descendants of the Ten Shamans, why did you become someone's lackey? "
Running dog?
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan's faces darkened.
The two of them looked at Pan Zhong for a moment.
Before they came, they had done their homework on the Evil Sky Pavilion.
As far as he could recall, there was no such person in the Evil Sky Pavilion.
"You are?"
Pan Zhong was unperturbed. He said, "A real man never changes his name. I'm from the Clarity Sect, and I'm now a member of the Evil Sky Pavilion. The Evil Sky Pavilion's business is my business. "
Wu Sheng cupped his fists and said, "So it's Brother Pan … The title of being a descendant of the Ten Shamans isn't something to brag about. As long as I can serve the imperial court, I will be working for the welfare of the common people. "
"Well said." Pan Zhong clapped his hands and said, "I've asked Mister Fourth before. The area around Measure Heaven River isn't just filled with Witchcraft Arrays. There are Witchcraft Traps along a hundred miles of the river. Even an expert like Mister Fourth would be ambushed if he encountered one, let alone an ordinary person who doesn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. When I was still in the Clarity Sect, I often heard about people dying tragically by the river. How do you explain that? "
Wu Sheng's expression changed slightly.
Pan Zhong's retort rendered him speechless.
Lu Zhou looked on indifferently. He did not participate in the discussion.
Wu Sheng said respectfully, "Cultivators often approach Measure Heaven River and harass the locals. With the Great Witchcraft Array, these matters were greatly reduced. There are two sides to every coin. Brother Pan's words are unfair. "
"Even if that's the case … In the witchcraft array, the corpses that were salvaged are piled up in the warehouse. Death is the most important thing. You have no respect for the dead. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning when you go out?!"
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan took a step back.
Pan Zhong's words startled the two of them.
"After this is over, we'll surely invite a Buddhist master to recite sutras for the dead and pray for them to be reborn in paradise!" Wu Sheng said.
He no longer had any confidence in his words. In fact, he sounded slightly guilty.
Pan Zhong laughed and said, "Witchcraft cultivators want to invite a Buddhist master to recite sutras. If the Ten Shamans hear this, I'm afraid they'll be angered to death!"
"You …"
Do not hit someone in the face.
Pan Zhong's words were too harsh.
For Wu Sheng and Wu Guan, the Ten Shamans were the ones they respected.
How could they tolerate their respect being insulted?
Wu Guan had already taken half a step forward when Wu Sheng forcefully pulled him back and said, "Brother Pan, we're here to ask for peace! We have no intention of making enemies! If we've offended the Evil Sky Pavilion, we're willing to apologize! "
Wu Sheng was smart. He bowed at Lu Zhou.
It did not matter if the request for peace was genuine or not.
The Wu brothers, as well as their master, Mo Li, did not expect Chen Zhu to be captured by the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Chen Zhu was Mo Li's trusted general. Would Mo Li take this lying down?
The great hall was silent.
Creak.
Creaking sounds rang from Ye Tianxin's direction.
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan looked at Ye Tianxin.
A hint of shock could be seen in their eyes.
Mingshi Yin turned to look at his master who was deep in thought. He said, "Bring her back."
"Understood."
Ye Tianxin was still unconscious. It was meaningless for her to stay here.
After the female cultivator brought Ye Tianxin away.
Lu Zhou rose to his feet slowly and walked down the steps.
"It's not impossible for you to ask for peace."
"I can't thank you enough for your understanding, Pavilion Master!" Wu Sheng bowed and said respectfully.
Lu Zhou suddenly asked, "I'm curious … Can the bones of the Bai people really extend one's lifespan?"
"Uh …"
Wu Sheng was stumped by the sudden question. He stammered and hesitated for a moment before he said, "For now, it doesn't seem possible."
"Then, why do we need to salvage it?"
"This is related to the palace's secrets! Pavilion Master … "
"My master gave you a way out, but you refused. What secrets are you talking about? Spit it out!" Little Yuan 'er brandished her fists.
Lu Zhou said calmly, "You don't have to say anything. You can even leave the Evil Sky Pavilion safely. I've never forced you … "
Hearing this.
Wu Sheng, on the other hand, shook his head awkwardly. He cupped his hands together and said, "Although this is a secret, it has been ten years and we have not been able to discover it. Forget it … it is rumored that the Bai people have bones that can increase their longevity. This rumor is not true. It took the palace ten years to find out that it was the Bai people, Cheng Huang, who had truly broken the limit of one's lifespan."
"Bai Cheng Huang?"
"There's Cheng Huang. It's shaped like a fox and has horns on its back. It can live up to two thousand years," Wu Sheng said.
Everyone was shocked.
Mingshi Yin frowned as he said, "The name of the beast?"
"That's right."
Wu Sheng sighed and said, "During the battle at the Measure Heaven River, Wei Zhuoyan and the Black Knight Fan Xiuwen wiped out all the foreign tribes in the Measure Heaven River. Their real goal was to find the bones of the Bai people. Then, he changed his target to Cheng Huang. Even Wei Zhuoyan and Fan Xiuwen were unaware of this. The palace suspects that Cheng Huang sank to the bottom of the river with the bones of the Bai people during the battle. "
"So, you're actually salvaging Cheng Huang? After so many years, you still haven't found it? "Pan Zhong interrupted.
Wu Sheng shook his head and said, "If I had found it, would there have been such a misunderstanding today?!"
After saying these.
Wu Sheng glanced at the calm Lu Zhou.
He bowed and said, "I've told the truth … Is what you said true, Pavilion Master?"
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "I've always kept my promises."
"Thank you, Lord Pavilion Master!"
The two of them hastily bowed.
"Send our guests off."
"Understood."
Since Lu Zhou had spoken, the others, naturally, would not stop him.
They watched as Wu Sheng and Wu Guan left the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Shortly after …
Wu Sheng and Wu Guan arrived outside Golden Court Mountain's barrier.
Both of them heaved a sigh of relief when they left the barrier.
"Brother, the Evil Sky Pavilion killed Chen Zhu. How are we going to explain this to Lord Mo?" Wu Guan asked worriedly.
"I have my own plans … If we don't pay the price, the Evil Sky Pavilion won't let down its guard. Cheng Huang's secret is a potent medicine! Everyone knows that Ji Tiandao's great limit is near. What do you think will happen if he learns of this secret? "Wu Sheng said.
"You're wise, big brother." Realization dawned on Wu Guan.
"I'll explain this to Lord Mo."
"What about Pan Zhong? I didn't expect this villain to join the Evil Sky Pavilion. He was rude and insulted the Ten Shamans! How despicable! "
