The cultivators in the small front courtyard returned to Guangcheng Palace and started to sort out all the clues in their hands. They also reconstructed the actual scene of the robbery!
Countless testimonies started to be gathered together. Other than those who left the Yellow Court Continent or couldn't be found due to other reasons, there were about seven hundred testimonies that explained the situation from their own point of view!
The most important ones were the four hundred plus people on the third floor of Guangcheng Palace!
When these things were gathered together, the truth also started to surface gradually. However, there were still many contradictions that caused them to be in a dilemma!
Their method was a stupid method, but it was also helpless against cultivators of the Jin Dan realm. Only the elders among the True Monarchs could reverse time, and they could only do the scene that the True Monarch had seen and not any event at any location. That was something that even immortals couldn't do.
There were many conclusions. After careful investigation, the specific scene at that time was perfectly reconstructed. They also discovered many contradictions that couldn't be justified!
Until a piece of news from the Yellow Court Mountain came, which allowed them to completely clarify their direction!
When the incident happened, the Yellow Court True Monarch passed by that area. Even the Yuanying True Monarch wouldn't interfere with the fight between the Jin Dan cultivators, let alone a True Monarch!
That True Monarch only passed by and swept a glance. He didn't have the slightest intention of stopping the bandit group. This was a great opportunity for the disciples to train, and he wouldn't dampen their spirits. If they caught it, it meant that the disciples were capable. If they ran away, it would be a lesson. So what? It wouldn't damage the foundation of the Yellow Court Sect at all!
However, after the situation was settled, the Jin Dan cultivators returned in defeat. Their judgment of the entire incident had deviated, and even after several months of investigation, they couldn't come up with a definite conclusion. At this time, the True Monarch didn't mind giving them a hint!
The hint was very simple: The Flying Centipede Formation of the bandit group didn't have the existence of the five elemental treasures!
With just this one sentence, the direction of the investigation was decided!
The snakeskin bag flew out and was intercepted. After a few twists and turns, the person who got hold of it, the person's subsequent movement trajectory, and the person who appeared at the first moment on this movement trajectory!
The result was very clear. All the focus was on one person!
"One Ear! I was so nice to him, but he actually did something behind my back and filled his own pockets! "
Yin Ya's tone was very indignant, but there wasn't much anger on her face. Instead, it was a kind of … hmm, surprise?
She didn't harm a Golden Hall Realm cultivator, nor did she take the initiative to rob him. Moreover, these five treasures were really not a loss that was extremely unacceptable to her … The crux of the matter was that her guess wasn't wrong. In the future, she would still be able to find this fellow to cause trouble for her, and it would allow her dreary life of cultivation to have a trace of color … Isn't this a bit too perfect? It was even more coincidental than a pie falling from the sky! It was as if he knew that there would definitely be pies in that place!
"They're not on the same side! This One Ear should be working alone. The Zu Chong incident should be his doing. He tricked people into letting out the treasures for appreciation, but he snatched them and ran away. I think he should be called a swindler instead of a thief! "Xia Bingji judged.
Yin Ya laughed. She was heartless. "I've never seen someone as foolish as Zu Chong. He deserves to be cheated!"
Master Yin glared at her. "You're not much stronger than Zu Chong! Didn't your Butterfly Blue also get cheated into his hands? If it weren't for the fact that we were in the Guangcheng Palace, and if it weren't for the fact that there were a large number of people lying in ambush in the palace, you would be the second Zu Chong! "
Yin Ya refused to accept this. "Don't mention the environment, okay? Relying on the environment is also a kind of ability! I, Yin Ya, have the ability to personally hand over the treasures to him, and he still has to obediently return them!
He actually compared me to that idiot Zu Chong. I'm so angry! "
Master Yin was disappointed and frustrated. "There are two suspicious points. One is at that broken hole. No one would have thought that the thief would hide such an important item that they took so much effort to steal there!
The other is that when the pirate group was flying, they would drop a snakeskin bag at a specific location, and it would be picked up by their helpers on the ground. They wouldn't have any stolen goods on them. This is also one of the rules of the ancient pirate group!
As for the second point, we can't investigate it at all. No one knows which cultivators passed by there during that period of time.
So we can only keep an eye on the first point, which is One Ear who is very familiar with the two of you!
I find it strange. How did the two of you do it? You were actually so close to the great thief, chatting and laughing, yet you didn't know? Not only were the treasures cheated, even the people were almost cheated!
Don't come into contact with other cultivators! I've told the two of you many times, but you just won't listen! "
Xia Bingji raised her eyebrows. "The people inside the Imperial Court are all good-for-nothings, and the cultivators outside have ulterior motives. The only person we should come into contact with is you. Is that what you mean?
Master Yin, you have to understand what a cultivator is! Without freedom, you don't deserve to be a cultivator! This includes the right to choose your friends! This includes the right to do right or wrong!
You have no right to ask for my life, and you have no right to ask for A 'Ya's! We are people, not someone's accessory! Can you not think too highly of yourself?
So what if we come into contact with him? This means that we have intuition about this! It's just that it's not very clear!
I already told you to leave more people in Guangcheng Palace, but you just had to place people outside. In the end, did you manage to stop them?
If we had more people on the third floor, no one would have been able to snatch that snakeskin bag! "
"I seriously support Sister Bing! It's my right to get acquainted with whoever I want. Even the old ancestor can't stop me! " Yin Ya made her stand clear. At this time, she couldn't be soft. Her brother was too much. They were talking about official matters, but he actually brought private matters into it. She couldn't tolerate it!
Master Yin fought one against two and lost. He was very depressed. It was really amazing for a thief to reach this realm. He even made the victim's family speak up for him? He was very clear that he couldn't provoke the two anymore. These two were famous for their stubbornness. If he didn't do well, he would lose his current position!
He secretly made up his mind that he had to find this guy first and end everything once and for all. He had to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots! He also had friends in Tai Xuan and Middle Yellow, and his connections were much wider than the two women's!
It wasn't like he hadn't done this before! There were quite a few! Otherwise, why would there be so few pursuers of Xia Bingji, at least on the surface? It was just that he did it secretly and his methods were ruthless. So even if outsiders had doubts, they didn't dare to make trouble!
He was the Eldest Senior Brother of the Yellow Court Sect and also came from the Yin Clan. Even if Xia Bingji had doubts, she wouldn't be able to get a handle on him!
He had to occupy the moral high ground. This was very important to him!
In this life, he had been pursuing perfection. Strength, reputation, Dao companion … He had achieved the first two. At least he had achieved it in the Yellow Court Continent. But for the third, he had exhausted all his efforts but still couldn't get what he wanted. This was hundreds of years of hard work. He had worked hard since he built his foundation!
He didn't know how long he could endure it. A proud person like him had been rejected for hundreds of years … Now, hundreds of years later, he had been moved at the beginning. But now, it was just for a breath of air in his heart. The tenderness and sweetness of the past were long gone. It was more like an inner demon!
If he didn't cross this hurdle, he wouldn't be able to become a Nascent Soul!
This was the big trouble he had brought to himself in his pursuit of perfection!
