"Thank you?" Ghost Mother's eyes almost burst into flames. She was not worried that Emperor Qi would harm her, but Zhang Xingrui. "Where can Zhang Xingrui go now that this has happened? Do you want him and his family to follow me to the Pitting Yin Mountain and never see the light of day? The power of Waning Moon Pavilion is unfathomable. They can find him no matter where he hides. Can Zhang Xingrui escape from their pursuit? Will he live the rest of his life in danger? If you didn't interfere, Zhang Xingrui wouldn't have gotten into this trouble. Do you want me to thank you? "
Niu You said, "Don't be impatient, Big Sister. Now that things have come to this, and Zhang Xingrui's identity has already been exposed, it's naturally impossible for him to return to Hao Yun Sheng's side. Otherwise, he will definitely be held hostage by Hao Yun Sheng to threaten Big Sister. Unfortunately, Big Sister has a large group of people with her. It's hard to find a better place to cultivate than the Pitting Yin Mountain. Otherwise, she can come with Zhang Xingrui. "
Ghost Mother said angrily, "Can your small territory stop Waning Moon Pavilion? Once Waning Moon Pavilion gathers their masters to attack, even Heavenly Jade School can't stop them. You can't even protect yourself, let alone him! "
Niu Youdao waved his hand, "That's why I won't let you come here. Since Big Sister and I are sworn siblings, Big Sister's business is my business. How can I sit back and do nothing? If I really want to sit back and do nothing, I can just pay him and let him go. It's none of my business. Why do I have to look for trouble? Don't worry, Big Sister. I have a way to keep Zhang Xingrui and his family safe! "
Ghost Mother asked, "What way?"
Niu Youdao said, "In the Kingdom of Qi, if there's one person, he can protect Pitting Yin Mountain and Zhang Xingrui's family. He can also keep Waning Moon Pavilion and the King of the West Yard from acting recklessly!"
Ghost Mother was startled. She looked around and asked suspiciously, "Vast Cloud Painting? You can make Vast Cloud Painting appear? "
Niu Youdao said, "Big Sister, don't worry. If Big Sister trusts me, let me handle this matter. I will definitely give Big Sister a satisfactory answer …"
The people outside didn't know what the two talked about. When they came out of the station, it was already dusk.
A large number of warhorses had already begun to move in batches, with disciples from several sects participating in the escort.
Mother of Immortality went to Lu Lijun and made arrangements for the ghostly cultivators. She was not going to leave for now. She would not leave until Niu Youdao gave her a satisfactory answer.
Words were useless. She wanted to see the actual results.
Niu Youdao stood outside the relay station and looked around. Gongsun Bu came over and said, "Daoye, the Prince asked me to ask when you will be done here. Do you want to go back together?"
Niu Youdao: "Tell the Prince that we can leave now."
There was a bank opposite the courier station. A group of people were crowded at the entrance. After a while, many people released their golden wings. Xu Laoliu cupped his hands to a group of people and left the crowd to return.
Niu Youdao lifted his chin towards the entrance of the bank and asked Xu Laoliu, "What's going on?"
Xu Laoliu: "The accounts have been settled with the ship owners. They have paid what should be paid. They are all very happy to get more money. It's not convenient for them to carry so much money with them, so they deposited it into the account of the ship owner and sent a message back to inform the ship owner. This matter is considered settled. "
Niu Youdao: "Have you found out their background?"
Xu Laoliu: "Yes, I have."
Niu Youdao narrowed his eyes as he looked at the crew members who had gathered at the entrance of the bank and were preparing to eat and drink. He muttered to himself, "I wonder if there are any hidden forces from the Waning Moon Pavilion behind these people."
Guan Fangyi, who was beside him, also looked for a while but couldn't see anything. She turned around and teased, "The five million gold coins that we just got are gone just like that?"
Niu Youdao didn't take it seriously. "It's gone. As long as the people are alive, the money will be there. If you don't have money, you won't have anything. Saving money is better than saving people!"
Guan Fangyi tsked. "You are so generous!"
Although she said so, she couldn't hide the appreciation in her eyes. She said, "How are you going to explain when you go back?"
Niu Youdao was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Guan Fangyi patted him on the chest with the round fan in her hand. "Peng is here again! You surrounded him and he wants you to give him an explanation. If you can't give him an explanation, won't I be in trouble with you? "
Niu Youdao: "You worry too much. The recipe is in my hands. I have told him long ago that I have a backup plan. He is concerned about the profits of the wine and doesn't dare to touch me for fear that I will disclose the recipe. The so-called explanation is just a way to get out of this embarrassing situation. I just need to give him an explanation. What's more, I just have a sworn sister here. He won't dare to act rashly without knowing the situation. Peng is here again. "
So that's how it is! Guan Fangyi nodded secretly. She looked back at Ghost Mother, who was giving instructions to her servants not far away. She was amused and asked, "What about Waning Moon Pavilion? They won't just sit back and do nothing. Don't think that they won't dare to touch you just because you escaped from Qi Kingdom. Our target is clear now. You are in Qingshan County. Waning Moon Pavilion will attack you at any time! "
"Nothing to worry about. Since I dared to come back, I have a way to deal with it!" Niu Youdao said and left. He went to greet Shang Chaozong who was coming from outside.
Not long after, a group of people set off. Among them was a carriage with Meng Shanming.
The rest, including Shang Chaozong and Niu Youdao, were on horseback. Ghost Mother also brought a few ghost cultivators with her …
Late at night, the group arrived at the entrance to the mountains outside Qingshan County. Shang Chaozong insisted on sending them off personally. Niu Youdao couldn't dissuade him and could only comply.
When they arrived at the valley, they found a group of people waiting in a pavilion. It was Peng You, Yuan Fang and the others.
Everyone jumped off their horses. Yuan Fang rushed over in a flash and cupped his fists excitedly. "Daoye!"
Niu Youdao looked him up and down. "Are you alright?"
Yuan Fang shook his head. "I'm fine. Black Peony, she … she … "His face was gloomy. He obviously knew that Black Peony was dead.
Niu Youdao raised his hand to stop him from continuing. He didn't want to talk about this anymore. It had already happened. There was no point in talking about it. It would only make him sad. He continued to ask, "You didn't give them the recipe, did you?"
Yuan Fang raised his head and promised, "No, absolutely not! They just locked us up. They haven't asked us about the recipe yet. "
"Mm!" Niu Youdao patted his shoulder and walked towards Peng You.
Bai Yao had already moved to Peng You's side in a flash. He was muttering something to Peng You. However, he could roughly guess what Peng You was talking about when he looked at Mother Ghostmother in bewilderment.
Niu Youdao walked over and cupped his fists. "Sect Leader Peng, why are you here to welcome us?"
"Welcome us?" Peng You asked. "Why do you ask when you already know the answer?"
Niu Youdao nodded. He turned around and gestured for Peng You to leave.
Pen was alone again, and went away with him.
Once they were some distance away from the crowd, the two of them stopped under the moonlight. Niu You said, "I was only the one who carried out the task of procuring the thirty thousand warhorses. The real mastermind was the Heavenly Jade School, so the money for the warhorses was paid for by the Heavenly Jade School. The ones who procured the warhorses were also the Heavenly Jade School. I was just an errand boy, so I dare not claim any credit!"
Peng You's eyelids twitched. He understood Miao Yi's intention. He wanted to push the credit to Heavenly Jade Sect.
That's right. Heavenly Jade Sect wanted this credit. Otherwise, they would lose too much face. After struggling for more than a year, losing so many people and paying such a huge price, they still achieved nothing. The dignified Heavenly Jade Sect couldn't even compare to Niu Youdao.
Peng You asked, "Do you think we're all blind?"
Niu Youdao replied, "I don't know if we're all blind, but there's one thing I'm sure of. Other than the few people around me, no one else knows where the warhorses came from. I was afraid that an accident might happen, so I kept the process of obtaining the warhorses a secret. Hence, no one else knows! "
Peng You asked, "Is the Prince an idiot?"
Niu Youdao replied, "It doesn't matter if the Prince is an idiot or not. What's important is that the Prince won't speak ill of Heavenly Jade Sect. What's more, the Prince really doesn't know what happened. I'll tell the Prince that this was all planned by Heavenly Jade Sect. From now on, the people around me will spread the word that this is all thanks to Heavenly Jade Sect. Since the people involved have already said so, what else can outsiders say? "
Peng You asked, "A man's mouth has two skins. Isn't it up to you to say whether it's right or wrong?"
Niu Youdao replied, "What good is there for me to go against Heavenly Jade Sect over such a matter? Is it necessary? Heavenly Jade Sect doesn't need to admit or deny it. It's fine as long as they keep quiet. The rest will be up to us, the people involved. Sect Master Peng, what do you think? "
Peng You neither agreed nor objected. He turned around and left. He didn't return to Heavenly Jade Sect's side. Instead, he walked up to Ghost Mother, cupped his fists, and smiled. "I am Peng You from Heavenly Jade Sect. May I ask if Ghost Mother has come in person?"
Ghost Mother replied sinisterly, "Sect Master Peng, you're too polite."
Peng You replied, "Esteemed guest has come from afar. Heavenly Jade Sect will do our best to host you and invite you into the city …"
"There's no need to trouble yourself!" Ghost Mother cut him off. She gestured to Niu Youdao, who was walking over. "I have something to discuss with my little brother."
"Since that's the case, I won't disturb you any further." Peng You chuckled as he walked away. He turned to look at Niu Youdao, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Did Niu Youdao give you the money?"
Ghost Mother stared at him coldly. "Why? Do you want to take it back? "
"Haha, that's not what I mean. Farewell!" Peng You cupped his fists, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.
When the Heavenly Jade Sect's people saw this, they followed suit.
After they left, Shang Chaozong came out and invited Niu Youdao to the side.
When they were at the side, Niu Youdao asked, "Prince, do you have any other instructions?"
Shang Chaozong smiled bitterly. "I'm truly ashamed that they came here to capture me. I …"
