This was exactly what Song Fu and the others wanted to ask. Having been asked first, they looked at each other. They didn't know what was going on, so how could they answer?
Miao Yi immediately flew towards the source of the loud noise, and Yan Xiu and the others immediately followed.
Song Fu and the others looked at each other, and followed to see what was going on.
When they arrived at the mountain gates, they saw that under the moonlight, the large stone memorial arch with the words' East Arrival Cave 'was already shattered to pieces. Everyone was shocked, someone had actually destroyed East Arrival Cave's mountain gates.
Miao Yi quickly turned around, and looked at Song Fu and the others with a sinister expression, sneering incessantly, "Good! I just arrived today, and it seems like someone can't wait to take me down a notch! Very good! "
Song Fu and the others were taken aback, they understood the meaning behind his words, but this was definitely not their doing. Because they were sitting together for a small gathering, and were also discussing how to teach Miao Yi a lesson in the future. They only ran out when they heard the abnormal noise.
They originally suspected that it was Miao Yi and the others who did it, but seeing Miao Yi like this, they felt that Miao Yi had no need to destroy his own mountain gates to teach them a lesson. After all, Miao Yi was the Cave Master of East Arrival Cave. Having his signboard smashed right after taking office was a shameful matter.
This kind of matter had to be explained clearly, or else he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility once it was reported. Song Fu solemnly cupped his fists and said, "Cave Master, this was definitely not our doing!"
The others followed suit and cupped their fists in assurance. It seemed like this was the first time they treated Miao Yi seriously as a Cave Master.
"Lies!" Miao Yi glared at Song Fu and said sternly, "I just assigned you to guard the mountain gates today, how could you not know that someone had destroyed it? Could it be that you intentionally went easy on us?! "
"This …." Song Fu was at a loss for words. He wasn't even here, and it wasn't good to say that he wasn't here because he didn't care about the Cave Master. He could only cupped his fists and 'honestly' explained, "Cave Master has just arrived, so you may not know the situation. The servants of East Arrival City have not been sent yet, so we have to prepare our own meals. In order to fill our stomachs, I temporarily left. I didn't expect something like this to happen."
Wang Zifa and the others also cupped their fists to prove, "Cave Master, we can prove that Senior Brother Song Fu was eating with us earlier."
Miao Yi pointed at the fallen memorial arch and said sternly, "Don't tell me it fell by itself? Don't tell me it was blown down by the wind! "
"..." Song Fu was a little speechless. He had no choice but to raise his hand and say, "Cave Master, I can swear in the name of my School of Blue Jade's predecessors that this was definitely not our doing. If there is even half a word of falsehood, then let me, Song Fu, die a horrible death!"
Miao Yi's gaze flickered as he swept his gaze across the crowd. With a dark tone, he said, "Could it be that someone has come to my East Arrival Cave to cause trouble?"
Everyone was startled. That was a possibility, and they quickly looked around.
"What are you waiting for? Did he want to have his throat slit in his sleep? Hurry up and spread out! "Miao Yi bellowed.
"Yes!" Yan Xiu and the other two clasped their fists and responded. They then quickly dispersed into the surrounding forest.
"Hmm?" Miao Yi harrumphed and glared at Song Fu and the others, as though questioning, 'Since you guys didn't do it, why didn't you investigate? Do you know something?'
At this time, no matter what, they had to show that they had nothing to do with it. Song Fu immediately turned around and shouted, "Hurry up and follow the Cave Master's orders to search!"
Everyone cupped their fists towards Miao Yi and immediately dispersed.
However, Song Fu was stopped by Miao Yi. "Song Fu, come with me!"
Song Fu was taken aback. He cupped his fists in acknowledgment and followed behind Miao Yi.
Just as everyone left, a silhouette that resembled a figure in water appeared where they stood. It was none other than the magnificent Lao Bai's silhouette.
Lao Bai stared at the fallen stone gate and archway. He lightly shook his head and chuckled, "The affairs of the world are like chess. How can a hot-blooded man only have the bravery of a common man! I've always been worried that you, brat, are too kind-hearted, and would be easily taken advantage of … A man must have his ways to run amok. A mere boorish man would find it hard to ascend to the heavens. Now, I'm much more at ease. "
As soon as he finished speaking, his silhouette rippled like water, and quietly disappeared without a trace amidst the swaying.
The candles in the East Arrival Grand Hall flickered. Song Fu followed behind Miao Yi and stood in the Grand Hall, one in front and one behind. Outside, Charcoal had already stood up. He seemed to have sensed something and sneezed.
Miao Yi expressionlessly stared at his throne. With his hands behind his back and his back facing Song Fu, he didn't utter a single word.
The atmosphere between the two of them was a little stifling. Song Fu waited for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Why did Cave Master summon me?"
Miao Yi's tone was gloomy as he said, "Song Fu, do you admit to your crimes?"
The corner of Song Fu's lips curled into a sneer. He glanced at the dishes on the short table at the side, and indifferently said, "This matter was definitely not our doing. What crimes did Song Fu commit?"
"That's not what I'm asking!" Miao Yi abruptly turned around and glared at him. He coldly asked, emphasizing each word, "I ordered you to guard the mountain gates. Why did you leave your post? Could it be that you don't respect my orders as the Cave Master?! "
Song Fu thought to himself, 'What do you think? I didn't respect it in the first place. '
Of course, he wouldn't say it out loud. "Song Fu has already reported to the Cave Master. I had no choice but to leave temporarily to fill my stomach. I didn't want to see such a thing happen either."
Miao Yi asked, "Do you think that after I report this matter, the Manor Head and Mountain Chieftain will believe your explanation?"
Song Fu chuckled, "A man's mouth has two skins. If Cave Master wants to frame me, then please go ahead. But Cave Master, don't forget that I also have a mouth to defend myself. I'm not a mute."
Miao Yi chuckled, "Looks like you're really unrepentant!"
As soon as he said this, Yan Xiu, Dan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun appeared outside the door in a flash. They walked in together and cupped their fists towards Miao Yi, "Cave Master, we haven't discovered anyone suspicious yet."
Miao Yi said, "The suspicious person is right in front of us. How can you say that we haven't discovered him!"
Dan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun seemed to have received a secret signal, and quickly closed the door.
Song Fu was startled by the noise and quickly turned around, only to see Yan Xiu, who was like a god of death, already furiously chopping at him with a pair of broad axes.
Song Fu quickly pulled out the sword he always carried with him. A cold glint flashed out of its sheath, and quickly blocked the attack with a clanging sound.
Dan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun also drew their spears almost at the same time, and joined forces to attack Song Fu.
Yan Xiu and Song Fu's cultivation were about the same. The two of them were evenly matched, and with the addition of Dan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun joining forces, Song Fu's situation instantly became precarious.
"Shameless thief! How dare you plot against … "
Surrounded and unable to escape, Song Fu, who was barely able to brandish his sword in a desperate stalemate with Yan Xiu, had yet to finish shouting when two spears pierced through his transcendence energy defense and ruthlessly stabbed into his chest.
Song Fu widened his eyes and struggled to turn his head to look at Miao Yi. His lips trembled, and the rage in his eyes was indescribable.
