Xuan Yao was not interested in the conflicts between the sects. He was most concerned about Niu Youdao. "Niu Youdao is behaving himself now? He didn't cause any more trouble? "He had a deep impression of the continuous reports.
Huang Ban knew that Xuan Yao was holding back his anger towards Niu Youdao. "He didn't cause any more trouble. Compared to the other seven sects, he is behaving himself. But recently, he has been sending large flying beasts out of Heaven Seeking City. If it isn't to the east station today, it will be to the west station tomorrow. He has to go to the same station almost every day. It seems like he is working hard for the Sacred Heart."
Xuan Yao said, "Be careful of him."
Huang Ban said, "I am a little worried but he seems to be behaving himself now."
Xuan Yao suddenly said, "Brother Huang, how about I handle the Demonic Fox Bureau?"
"…" Huang Ban was speechless and finally sighed. "Brother Xuan, it's not that I don't want to give you face. I know you can't take this lying down and so can Mister Ding. However, this really isn't the right time. Niu Youdao has submitted a few letters in succession, making it clear that he has offended us. He has even made it clear that he has a grudge with you. If something were to happen to him now, it would be hard not to arouse suspicion. He just complained and then he died. What is wrong with that? "
"Brother Xuan, the Sacred Venerables still have some leeway and follow the rules. If the Sacred Venerables are offended, do you think it's enough to let Niu Youdao die a reasonable death? Do you think they can't touch us without evidence? They don't need a reason. They can just issue an order to bring the relevant people over. Once they go to the Sacred Ground, it won't be the Misty Pavilion's trial anymore. Lan Ming is here. What's the point of Long Fanhai denying it? His body is still hanging in the city, giving off a horrible stench! "
"Brother Xuan was also interrogated by Lan Ming. Why didn't you suffer? It's not that Lan Ming doesn't have evidence. It's that Mister protected you. Lan Ming gave Mister face. Otherwise, even if you don't die, you will be skinned. Mister is in charge of the Misty Pavilion and can protect us. Once we go to the Sacred Ground, Mister won't be able to do anything. "
"Of the Nine Great Holy Lands, it's not a problem to offend one or two of them. As long as we also have the backing of a Holy Land, no one will casually touch anyone. However, the nine inspectors from the various sects have the same idea. If we kill Niu Youdao now, once the Sky Blue Holy Land asks for the relevant personnel, the Dayuan Holy Land will probably close one eye and not say a word. Whether or not you can find anything, do you think you can come back alive? "
"Brother Xuan, it's not that I don't want to give you face. This is also Mr. Ding's idea. He wants you to relax for a while and wait for the limelight to pass."
Xuan Yao remained silent …
When it was mealtime, the food was delivered to the courtyard where Niu Youdao was staying. It was a sumptuous feast.
Ever since the inspectors of the various sects had written to them that the various divisions were purposely making things difficult for them, the various divisions had raised the quality of the food that the inspectors of the various sects ate. There was no need for them to write to them about such a small matter.
However, the concessions of the various divisions did not make the inspectors of the various sects at ease. Instead, the various sects saw the effect of the report and became even more arrogant.
"I don't want to use it. You guys eat." Looking at the food on the table with his hands behind his back, Niu Youdao left after saying this.
Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie could only leave a portion for Kun Linshu. Now, the three of them took turns to guard the place where they would stay.
Niu Youdao returned to his room and closed the door. He took out a letter from his sleeve.
Qu Lingkun had secretly given him the food box when he had brought it into the courtyard.
He opened the letter and saw the familiar handwriting. It was Yuan Gang's reply. The letter said that he had received the letter and was making arrangements to put him at ease.
When he saw the letter and confirmed that the person behind Qu Lingkun had really helped him, Niu Youdao was not happy at all.
He paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about the matter carefully again. Until now, he still could not understand why the person behind the scenes would help him.
The biggest problem was that the other party knew what he had done in the Heaven Capital Mystery Realm.
When he had been negotiating with the other party, he had purposely threatened the other party to test him. However, the other party did not use the Heaven Capital Mystery Realm to threaten him. Instead, they had agreed to help him.
He did not think that the other party cared about Qu Lingkun's life. Whether it was Qu Lingkun or Chang Qingshan from Shouque Mountain Villa, they were just pawns under the other party.
Since the other party dared to use these people to contact him, they must have a way to protect themselves. Even if he flipped the table, at most Qu Lingkun and Chang Qingshan would be the unlucky ones. They would not be able to find out who the person behind the scenes was.
In other words, if he angered the other party, they could sacrifice two pawns to kill him at any time.
However, the other party did not do so. Now that he had gotten Yuan Gang's letter, it proved the other party's sincerity.
Why would it be like this? After thinking about it, there were only three possibilities.
First, the person behind the scenes could not reveal what he had done in the Heaven Capital Mystery Realm. If he did, he would be exposed.
Second, the other party might not have any evidence. Because his previous actions were self-preservation, everyone would suspect that the Misty Pavilion wanted to get rid of him. If they did not present evidence to accuse him, it would not be convincing.
Third, the other party really wanted to help him.
However, these three possibilities were only his guesses. In the end, it still came down to that question. Why did the other party find him? Why did they say they wanted to help him from the beginning? Even if they wanted to help him, they would not do it without a reason. There had to be a reason, and the other party had never mentioned any conditions to him.
The more they did not mention conditions, the more uncertain he became. What he was most worried about now was that the person was not the one he suspected. He was worried that one of the Nine Saints had set this up.
He raised his hand and looked at the letter in his hand again. He slowly crushed it in his hand. He had to find a way to get to the bottom of this. Otherwise, if he stood in the light and was controlled by the person in the dark, he would not be able to figure out what the other party had up their sleeves. He would be constantly being manipulated, and it would put him in a very dangerous situation …
When he came out of the house, Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie had already finished their meal and switched to Kunlin Tree.
Niu Youdao walked up to the two of them and said, "We have visited all the surrounding stations. We are going to go somewhere further today. We might not be able to come back on the same day. Someone go and report to the Misty Pavilion. Also handle the procedures for borrowing a large bird. "
"Yes!" The two of them answered. They greeted each other and let Qin Guan go.
Ke Dingjie was a little puzzled. "Elder, what's the use of us running around like this?"
These days, the two of them had been following him around. To be honest, it was just like taking a stroll. They did not see any purpose in it.
Niu Youdao said, "Nothing much. It just shows that we are performing our duties seriously." He gave a perfunctory reply and turned to leave.
When Qin Guan returned, he rode a large bird and landed directly in the courtyard.
The three people from the Purple Golden Cave, who had made some preparations, rode their flying beasts and soared into the sky. Only the kunlin tree was left in the courtyard. It was guarding one of the eagle cages, while the other was taken away by Niu Youdao.
He didn't know what Niu Youdao was doing going back and forth almost every day. After he came here, he was very idle, and Niu Youdao didn't bring him with him every time he went out. He gradually felt that before he completely determined his position, there were some things that Niu Youdao was deliberately avoiding him.
Ever since he was defeated by Niu Youdao in the Qi Kingdom all those years ago, it could be said that he had gone through some trials and tribulations to get to where he was today. His entire person had changed quite a bit. The arrogance he had back then had long been worn away, leaving only torment …
There was an island in the middle of the vast sea. The island was covered with pavilions. The bird descended from the sky and landed in the open space of the pavilions. Niu Youdao and the other two landed.
Two people from the Misty Pavilion showed up and asked, "Who are you?"
"Niu Youdao!" Niu Youdao replied. He gestured for Qin Guan to take out the Misty Pavilion's warrant for them to check.
After confirming that it was Niu Youdao, the two people looked at each other. Their attitude became much more polite, even though they were still a little distant.
They had to be polite, and they were even a little nervous. They had also received news of Long Fanhai's death. They knew that the person in front of them was not a good person, and was purposely looking for trouble.
Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie were used to these people's attitude. Recently, they had been following Niu Youdao around, and the people from the Misty Pavilion all had the same attitude.
After a casual conversation, the two invited Niu Youdao to have tea. Niu Youdao was not interested. He looked around and found that it was deserted. He asked, "Before I came, I heard that there were more than ten people stationed here. Why do I feel that there are only two of you? Where are the others?"
Not long after, Niu Youdao left the place and went to a nearby island. He stood side by side with Island Master Xu Liang, who was in charge of guarding this place. Someone emerged from the sea and carried out a strange giant clam.
With a crack, the giant clam was broken open. The person who had carried it out searched through the pile of flesh. After a while, he dug out a fist-sized blue pearl that was glowing with blue light.
Island Lord Xu Liang waved his hand, and his subordinates handed over the blue beads they dug out.
Xu Liang, who was holding the pearl, looked it over and said, "There are no flaws. This is it." He handed it over to Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao held it in his hand and found that the blue pearl looked good. He sniffed it and found it to be odorless. He asked, "Is this the reason you are guarding this place?"
Xu Liang hurriedly explained, "Elder Niu, please don't misunderstand. It is not that we are not fulfilling our duties. The Ice Holy Land sent us a message to collect some Seven-colored Pearls and send them there. It is not easy to collect these things in the deep sea. We have no choice but to follow orders. "
Niu Youdao couldn't help but ask, "What does the Ice Holy Land want this for?"
Xu Liang asked curiously, "Elder Niu, you don't know?"
Niu Youdao was slightly startled. He then smiled and said, "If it is not a secret, I am willing to hear the details."
Xu Liang smiled lightly, "There is nothing to hide. The Ice Holy Land is about to have a big celebration. Granny Xue's granddaughter is getting married. This is no secret. You will find out sooner or later. The Seven-colored Pearls are probably for decoration."
Niu Youdao was surprised, "Could it be that the Ice Pavilion's Pavilion Master Xue Luo 'er is getting married?"
Xu Liang said, "Yes. Other than this granddaughter, Granny Xue has no other granddaughters. "
Niu Youdao faced the sea breeze, his clothes fluttering in the wind. He seemed to be deep in thought. He recalled the situation in the Ice and Snow Pavilion back then. His thoughts returned, and he asked, "I wonder who it is that has the fortune to receive the favor of the Ice and Snow Pavilion's pavilion master?"
Xu Liang said, "I don't know. This matter suddenly popped up. It is said that it is a rogue cultivator called Chuan Ying. He is said to be extremely handsome."
