"Investigate? Haha … "Niu Youdao couldn't help but laugh, he shook his head and said:" Elder Chao, how can you be so naive? Of course, since I'm already here, it's up to Elder Chao whether or not I can get to the bottom of this. It all depends on whether or not Elder Chao is willing to be friends with me. If I'm your friend, I'm sure this has nothing to do with Elder Chao. If I'm not your friend, how the Wan Shou Sect decides to deal with this has nothing to do with me. "
Chao Jing's eyes were filled with hatred, he stared at Niu Youdao and slowly walked towards him.
He had heard many rumors about Chao Jing and today, he had finally seen him for himself. Chao Jing was not an ordinary person, he dared to come to the Wan Shou Sect alone and threaten him, an elder of the Wan Shou Sect. His calm and collected demeanor was not something anyone could compare to.
Niu Youdao saw that Chao Jing was looking at him with hostility, he held his sword in one hand and took out a talisman with the other, he said emotionlessly: "It's better not to be impulsive! Since I'm here, I won't come alone, I'm sure I'm prepared, I believe Elder Chao won't come alone either. "
Heavenly Sword Talisman! Chao Jing's pupils shrunk, he suppressed the evil in his heart, but he still raised his hand and slapped Qiu Wen Xian's head.
Slap! Qiu Wen Xian's brain exploded, he didn't even have time to scream before he fell to the ground.
Chao Jing could have just denied that he was the one who killed him, even if he killed him for nothing.
Niu Youdao turned a blind eye to it, he was a man who was used to death, he clicked his tongue and said: "What a pity, but it doesn't matter, I have a few more with me, as long as Elder Chao is happy, we can send them to the Wan Shou Sect and let Elder Chao kill them to his heart's content. As for whether or not you can stop the Wan Shou Sect from questioning them, that will depend on Elder Chao's abilities!"
Chao Jing stopped and ignored the dead body under his feet, he raised his head and looked at the flying beasts in the sky, he stared at them and said: "I heard that you have some flying beasts that can carry people, where did you get them from?"
The old man wasn't stupid, he reacted quickly! Niu Youdao's lips curled into a smile. "Is that important?"
Chao Jing pointed at him and said sternly, "It's you! When the plague broke out, you were also in the Wan Shou Clan. You colluded with Chao Shenghuai to commit the crime, and now you want to frame me, forcing me to submit to you! Otherwise, with your financial resources, where did you get so many flying beasts to carry people? "
When they first heard that Niu Youdao had a bunch of flying beasts in his possession, the Wan Shou Clan had talked about it as if it was just a casual conversation, but no one knew where Niu Youdao had gotten them from.
Even though they were curious, they didn't want to pursue the matter. The Wan Shou Sect was selling things, as long as they paid, they could give it to whoever they wanted. The Wan Shou Sect didn't care about that, they didn't want to make the customers unhappy.
Those who could afford to buy a flying bird were not ordinary people, and they were not people that the Wan Shou Sect could easily investigate.
Niu Youdao calmly replied, "You're overthinking. I do have some with me, at least more than five."
"…" Chao Jing was stunned. The number of flying beasts didn't add up, and this sentence made him speechless.
Niu Youdao said, "Elder Chao, there's no point in talking about this, and there's no point in trying to frame me. If you dare to do something, you have to admit it."
What do you mean by 'if you dare to do something, you have to admit it'? Chao Jing was furious. "Don't try to use this to threaten me, I won't fall for it, just hand over the witnesses you have to the Wan Shou Sect!"
"Good!" Niu Youdao nodded in approval. "You're a real man, I admire you! Alright, as you wish. But I won't hand over the witnesses to the Wan Shou Sect, I will ask the three factions to send people to escort Chen Ping, Gao Lan and the others to the Wan Shou Sect, and the higher-ups of the Wan Shou Sect will investigate the matter, and no one will be able to do anything to them. As for Chao Shenghuai, he will be sent to Yan Jing, and the people of the three major sects will hold a grand meeting there. Chao Shenghuai will expose his grandfather, Elder Chao, in front of everyone in the world at the grand meeting.
Chao Jing laughed coldly. "Are you trying to frame me?"
Niu Youdao said, "Don't make it sound so bad, but one thing is for sure, Chao Shenghuai knows that he won't be able to live if he goes back to the Wan Shou Sect, and Yan will protect him. Even ants are greedy for life, if there's a chance for him to live, he will take it! Saying too much is just nonsense. To put it simply, the person is in my hands. He has to say whatever I want him to say! "
Chao Jing said, "Do you think the Wan Shou Sect is stupid? Do you think the Wan Shou Sect will believe you so easily?"
Niu Youdao said, "Unless Elder Chao kills all of his disciples!"
Chao Jing frowned, he looked suspicious, he didn't know what he meant.
"Do you really not understand or are you just pretending?" Niu Youdao reminded him, "The Rakshasa Wave killed so many Wan Shou Sect disciples, but Elder Chao suppressed it! From what I know, many of Elder Chao's disciples were present at the scene, and many of them knew about it, but Elder Chao ordered them to cover it up. Elder Chao, if you insist on going against me, and if you really make a big deal out of this, the Wan Shou Sect will have to investigate this matter. As long as this matter is confirmed, it will prove that what Chao Shenghuai said is true, and that you were the one who deliberately hid the truth. Elder Chao, are you really going to kill all the disciples who knew about it? "
Chao Jing's face changed.
"Isn't it too late to kill them now? Even the people who knew about it were killed, what kind of situation is this? As you said, the Wan Shou Sect is not stupid, Elder Chao, it's not fun to add more crimes on top of one's crimes. Sigh, Elder Chao, listen to me, if this matter gets out of hand, I'm afraid it won't just be a question of whether you can keep your position as an Elder, so many of our disciples have died in vain, so many valuable birds have been killed, if we don't punish you, how are we going to explain this to everyone in the Wan Shou Clan? I can't imagine the situation at that time, the high and mighty Elder Chao was forced to kneel down on the ground to be judged, would you be able to take it? Would you be willing to see those despicable people kick you when you're down? "
Chao Jing gritted his teeth and said: "You are the real despicable person!"
"You think too highly of me!" Niu Youdao put on a fake smile, his eyes suddenly became sharp. "From the beginning of the Rakshasa Wave, after the Spiritual Beast Gathering, you were already in my hands, if I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as flipping my hand. You, Chao Jing, have no choice in front of me! If I want you to be a human, then you can be a human, if I want you to be a dog, then you will be a dog! "His tone was calm, but his eyes flashed with an undetectable anger.
An image flashed in his mind, it was the blue sea, on the bow of the ship, the woman who was lying in his arms, unable to wake up.
Chao Jing's hands were shaking, he had never been humiliated like this before, his face was filled with anger and said: "Niu Youdao, I have no enmity with you, I can't think of anything that I have done to offend you, why are you trying so hard to harm me?"
"No enmity with you?" Niu Youdao laughed again, but in the end, he nodded and said: "That's right, there is no enmity between us, that's why I didn't take it seriously. But now, your Wan Shou Sect has offended me. You should know that Meng Shan Ming is one of my people, your Wan Shou Sect has interfered in the war between the two empires, it has harmed my interests, it has endangered my interests in the Southern Prefecture, I have no choice but to use this matter to look for you. "
Chao Jing wanted to say something, he wanted to say, this is a war between two empires, it has nothing to do with me, why are you targeting me?
"Elder Chao, I'm still going to say the same thing. I'm here to make friends. As long as you settle this matter for me, I won't look into the deaths of those several hundred thousand troops, and I'll return Chao Shenghuai and the others to you."
Chao Jing was so angry that he laughed: "Settle? This is not something I can decide, the sect has already made a decision, I am just an elder, I have no right to overturn the decision made by the entire sect, even if you force me, I have no right to withdraw my men. If I really do that, you don't even need to force me, the sect will immediately hold me accountable! "
If he could say something like that, it meant that he had already relented.
Niu Youdao was silent for a while, it wasn't his plan to expose this old man now, he knew that the old man wouldn't agree to it, so he said: "Those pests attacked the Yan army like crazy, they didn't attack the Song army, I think Elder Chao, you have a way to balance this out!"
Chao Jing was also silent for a while, then said: "Chen Shaotong's men have taken the secret medicine."
Niu Youdao said: "If that's the case, it's simple, the Yan army also needs the secret medicine, I think Elder Chao can provide it."
Chao Jing stared at him coldly: "Do you think I am three years old? If I help you with this, I will fall into your trap, I will never be able to get out of it! "
Niu Youdao said: "Elder Chao, dead people are useless to me, Elder Chao is more useful to me if you are alive, I want you to be the leader of the Wan Shou Faction! I didn't steal those flying beasts from your Wan Shou Faction. I have those flying beasts, and my Mao Huo Villa was able to defend against the Yan Kingdom's Imperial Court's sneak attack. The power behind me is not as simple as you think. I'm here to make friends. If we work together, it will benefit both of us. I don't need to hurt you! "
Chao Jing was silent, he was struggling inside, he knew that if he took this step, there would be no turning back.
But he had no other choice, in the end, he said with a gloomy face: "If you want to give the Yan army the secret medicine, I cannot provide it to you, otherwise, the sect will find out, I can only give you the secret medicine, you will have to prepare the ingredients yourself."
Niu Youdao said: "I will do as Elder Chao says, as long as it is effective."
Chao Jing was a ruthless man, since he had made up his mind, there was no point in hesitating, he had to get through this hurdle first.
He kicked over Qiu Wenxian's corpse on the spot, dipped his hand in Qiu Wenxian's blood, and directly wrote the secret recipe on the back of Qiu Wenxian's clothes. Finally, with a ripping sound, he tore off the clothes and stood up, throwing it to Niu Youdao.
After he got the medicine, Niu Youdao nodded and said: "I still have the same words, I am here to make friends, don't worry, as long as the secret medicine is effective, your grandson and the others will be handed over to you."
After the two of them chatted for a while more, they decided on how to contact each other in the future. Only then did Niu Youdao soar into the sky and leap out of the canyon. He leaped onto the cliff and soared into the sky again. A large bird swept over, caught him, and quickly flapped its wings and flew away.
When they were far away from the valley, Niu Youdao looked at Guan Fangyi who was riding on the bird and said: "This doesn't look like you, don't you want to ask what happened?"
