Shao Pingbo said, "The Misty Pavilion is everywhere. Is there really no way to do it?"
The shopkeeper said, "If there was a way, you would have told me already. Why do you keep asking me? Let me see what I can do and I will inform you if there is any news. "Then, he was about to leave.
"Sir." Shao Pingbo stopped him again. It was rare for them to meet and he wanted to learn from him. He said, "Sir, you mentioned Ximen Qingkong. I have yet to thank you for your help last time. Please allow me to thank you and I will repay you in the future!" After bowing, he said, "However, according to the spy from Jin, Ximen Qingkong went missing after being poisoned. I am curious. Do you know if he is dead or alive?"
The shopkeeper said, "Isn't there a disciple of the Ghost Doctor in Qi Capital?"
Shao Pingbo said, "Sir, do you mean that the disciple helped Ximen Qingkong?"
The shopkeeper looked at him, "This is all thanks to your sister. Hao Yun Tu asked your sister to come forward and ask the disciple to save her. Heh, you two siblings are interesting. One wants to kill and the other wants to save. If I knew this, I wouldn't have wasted so much effort. Ximen Qingkong's poison should have been cured. As for where he is recuperating now, I don't know. Xuan Wei is afraid that Ximen Qingkong will be harmed again, so she must have spent a lot of effort to keep it a secret. The Vast Cloud Map shouldn't know where he went, it seems like he didn't ask. "
"I don't need to hold on to Ximen Qingkong. If you want to find Ximen Qingkong, I can show you the way. As long as you can find the head of the Shangqing Sect, Tang Yi, you should be able to find Ximen Qingkong's whereabouts. "
Having said all that, Zhang Xuan left without another word.
Shao Pingbo couldn't stop her and could only send her off. After watching her leave, Shao Pingbo frowned and murmured to himself, "Liu 'er …"
Shao Sansheng, who was hiding in the distance, walked over and asked, "Young Master, did you learn anything from this meeting?"
Shao Pingbo didn't answer the question and his eyes flashed, "This person knows a lot about the situation in the three countries."
Shao Sansheng said, "The people from the Misty Pavilion are hidden everywhere. Moreover, this person can control the life and death of Hong Yunfa, the deacon of the World Bank. His position in the Misty Pavilion shouldn't be low. Isn't it normal for him to know something?"
Shao Pingbo nodded slightly, then shook his head, "You and I don't know much about the Misty Pavilion. I don't know if even someone of his status knows so much, or if it's just him …" Then he fell into deep thought.
Upon hearing this, Shao Sansheng understood what the Eldest Young Master was thinking. Based on his understanding of the Eldest Young Master, the Eldest Young Master was probably trying to deduce the true identity of this mysterious person.
He waited quietly at the side, not daring to interrupt the Eldest Young Master's train of thought.
"Sigh!" Shao Pingbo, who had regained his senses, suddenly let out a long sigh towards the sky.
Shao Sansheng was puzzled when he saw the endless melancholy on his face. "Young Master, why are you so melancholy?"
Shao Pingbo laughed self-deprecatingly. "Niu Youdao is dead!"
"What?" Shao Sansheng was a little confused. He thought he had misheard.
Shao Pingbo sighed. "Based on our understanding of him, you can't believe it, right? When I first heard it, I couldn't believe it either. But the innkeeper said it very clearly. Niu Youdao offended someone he shouldn't have and was killed. Now, we don't even know who the murderer is. He has caused quite a commotion in the Saint Realm. "
Shao Sansheng still couldn't believe it. "With Niu Youdao's capabilities, how could he be killed so easily? Young Master, the thief is cunning. Do you have the confirmed corpse? If not, be careful of a trap! "
After being banished from the Northern Region to the Jin Country, living under someone else's roof and having all his wings cut off, he was also deeply afraid of Niu Youdao.
Shao Pingbo chuckled. He realized that this old servant had the same reaction as him. After hearing the news of Niu Youdao's death, his first reaction was that it was a trap. He shook his head. "There shouldn't be any mistake. There are many witnesses. The corpse has also been confirmed. The Saint Realm has confirmed that the deceased is indeed Niu Youdao. "
"He's really dead …" Shao Sansheng murmured. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief. "If this person didn't die, he would definitely be a threat to young master. Now that he's dead, young master's worries have been resolved. Speaking of which, when he entered the Saint Realm, everyone predicted that he would be in danger. I didn't expect that he really couldn't escape. No wonder the Saint Realm can make all the cultivators in the cultivation world tremble with fear. It seems that ordinary people really don't have the fortune to enjoy it. "
"Sigh!" Shao Pingbo looked up to the sky and sighed again. "Yes, he's really dead."
Hearing this tone, Shao Sansheng asked tentatively, "Young Master doesn't seem happy about his death. Instead, you feel sorry for him. Could it be that you appreciate each other?"
Shao Pingbo smiled bitterly. "Appreciate each other? What do you mean by appreciate each other? Do you think I appreciate each other? I should be happy, but I don't know why I can't be happy. This kind of person is rarely seen in this world. He actually died under the hands of a thief. Perhaps man proposes but God disposes. However, he indeed died in a wrong place. He died in a wrong place! "
Shao Sansheng was silent for a moment. He could roughly guess the reason for his unhappiness. The Eldest Young Master had been defeated by Niu Youdao time and time again. He had not been able to defeat his opponent in a decisive battle, so it was likely that he would not be able to vent the anger in his chest. From now on, the Eldest Young Master would have to bear the reputation of being defeated by Niu Youdao forever.
He thought about it, but he didn't say it in front of Shao Pingbo. Some things were better left unsaid.
In short, he was happy to confirm that Niu Youdao was dead. He was extremely happy. All along, Niu Youdao not only posed a huge threat to the Young Master, but also weighed heavily on his heart like a huge mountain. Now, the haze that shrouded his heart had been swept away. The Young Master was no longer a big threat. With the Young Master's ability to strategize, who in this world could be his match? The Young Master could finally show off his skills. His future was promising.
"Didn't they say that the Ghost Doctor's disciple was eccentric? Liu 'er could actually ask for his help repeatedly. I always feel that something is wrong … Old Shao, send someone to investigate the details of Liu' er's request for help. Also, send someone to investigate the situation of the Ghost Doctor's disciple. Try to find out as much as possible … "
The Purple Golden Cave suddenly became nervous. The people from the Misty Pavilion had arrived.
The leader of the group of three was Yue Guangming. He was the new Misty Pavilion Master's assistant appointed by Huo Kong.
When Huo Kong took over the Misty Pavilion, he naturally needed trustworthy people. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to do anything.
The people from the Misty Pavilion didn't show up. Once they showed up, it was usually nothing good. Naturally, everyone in the Purple Golden Cave was nervous.
Sect Master Gong Lince and the elders were discussing the war in the west. They were discussing how to respond to Wei Guo's request for help. When they heard that the people from the Misty Pavilion had arrived, they quickly came out to welcome them.
After greeting them, Gong Lince invited them in. However, Yue Guangming raised his hand and stopped him. "No need to trouble yourself. I am here to inform the Purple Golden Cave to find three substitutes to take over Niu Youdao's hand and go to the Saint Region to continue their duties as inspectors. "
What? The higher-ups of the Purple Golden Cave were shocked. They looked at each other.
Gong Lince cupped his hands and asked, "Mr. Yue, could it be that our sect's Elder Niu caused some trouble in the Saint Region and was punished?"
Yue Guangming was silent for a while. "He didn't do anything wrong, nor was he punished."
Gong Lince asked, "Then why do we need substitutes? Everyone in our sect thinks that Elder Niu is smart and capable. No one can compare to him. He is the best inspector. "
Yue Guangming directly said, "Niu Youdao is dead!"
"Ah!" Everyone was shocked. They realized that what they were afraid of had really come true.
After Elder Yan Li recovered from his shock, his mouth curled into a sly smile. He was delighted. That dog finally got his retribution!
Gong Lince calmed himself down. "Since he was not punished, how did he die?"
The dust had not settled yet. Yue Guangming didn't want to talk about it. "I am not sure. When your people go there, you will know. There is no need to rush. You can decide on your own. I will give you three days. Three days later, the people from the Misty Pavilion will come to pick you up. Did you hear me clearly? "
He was just passing by. The matter in the Saint Region was not over yet. It was not appropriate for Huo Kong to go to Sky Capital Peak personally. Thus, he was sent as an assistant to take charge. After that, he would send people who had left Sky Capital Peak to take the Purple Gold Cave's replacement to the Saint Region.
Unable to refuse and not daring to disobey, Gong Lince could only cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"
Yue Guangming didn't stay for long. He turned around and left with his people.
The group of people who watched helplessly fell into silence, or sighed in despair.
Elder Yan Li suddenly said, "Sect Master, Niu Youdao said before he left that if he didn't come back alive, the people from Thatched Cottage would have to leave Purple Gold Cave. Now that things have come to this, it is not appropriate for outsiders to continue staying in Purple Gold Cave. We should ask them to leave. "
They had been humiliated by Thatched Cottage. Now that the pillar of Thatched Cottage was gone, they naturally had to return the favor.
Elder Fu Junrang squinted and said, "You are still thinking about this at this time?"
Yan Li remained silent. He knew that the other Elders were worried that he would replace Niu Youdao and enter the Saint Realm, but he didn't worry too much. He was the Sect Master's man, so the Sect Master should be biased.
"Alas!" Gong Lince sighed. "We can't avoid it. They only gave us three days. Let's discuss the matter of the candidate."
He turned around and left. Everyone followed him back to the Conference Hall.
No one was willing to go. Even Niu Youdao had died in the Saint Region. Who would dare to go? There were still three days left. Everyone pushed the blame to each other and couldn't come up with a final decision.
Not long after the Elders left, the news of Niu Youdao's death spread in Purple Gold Cave. Disciples of Purple Gold Cave were talking about it everywhere.
Ju An of the Sleeping Turtle Pavilion told Zhong Guzi. Zhong Guzi only opened his eyes and sighed. He closed his eyes again and didn't say anything.
Ju An then rushed to Thatched Cottage to see the situation. Before he reached the door, he saw Elder Yan Li barging into Thatched Cottage with a group of people.
Ju An got the news from his wife, Wen Mo 'er. Wen Mo' er had already met Guan Fangyi and told her about Niu Youdao's death.
Guan Fangyi felt like she was struck by lightning. She stood there in a daze and didn't say anything for a long time.
Xu Laoliu and the others looked serious. They all understood that with Niu Youdao's death, everyone's future would be uncertain.
They couldn't accept this reality. Yan Li came with a group of people. As soon as he saw Guan Fangyi, he said expressionlessly, "It seems that you already know. My condolences!"
Guan Fangyi looked back at him blankly. Her eyes were red. She didn't say anything and even forgot basic manners.
