Gong Lince obviously wanted to ask Niu Youdao something, but he went with Yuwen Yan first.
Watching the two groups leave, Guan Fangyi walked to Niu Youdao and asked, "Yuwen Yan was so secretive just now. What did he say to you?"
Slowly, Niu Youdao squinted his eyes and said, "He might have found out that I was the one behind it."
"Ah?" Guan Fangyi was surprised, "You were very careful. You didn't give yourself away! Are you thinking too much? "
Niu You said, "It doesn't matter if I'm overthinking it or not. This time, Kun Linshu will have to represent the Sky Fire Cult and go to the Sage Land. I underestimated this Sect Leader Yuwen and accidentally fell into his trap."
Guan Fangyi didn't understand, "Because you promised Kun Linshu to go to the Sage Land?"
Niu Youdao sighed, "Pang Zuo, Kun Linshu and his wife's master, did you forget what Yuwen Yan threatened Kun Linshu?"
Guan Fangyi said, "I remember. Yuwen Yan said that if Kun Linshu didn't go to the Sage Land, why would he believe that Kun Linshu would fight to the death?"
Niu Youdao said, "Not only that, the old man didn't have any good intentions. He deliberately stopped talking and didn't force me. When we went out, he deliberately told me something. If I insist on letting Kun Linshu go to the Sage Land, Purple Golden Cave will suspect that I have something to do with the Sky Fire Cult. The old man deliberately buried a nail for me to bump into. "
Guan Fangyi looked slightly serious, "Will it be troublesome?"
Niu Youdao shook his head, "It's not troublesome. He just wanted to annoy me. He also wanted to tell me that he saw that I was the one behind it. He knew that I didn't want to and wouldn't let Kun Linshu be punished by Purple Golden Cave, so he left with peace of mind."
Guan Fangyi was a little surprised, "If he saw it, would Purple Golden Cave see it too?"
Niu Youdao said, "He probably saw it because of that letter. Purple Golden Cave has no clue at all, so they won't link it to me."
Guan Fangyi was alert, "Then will he tell Purple Golden Cave?"
Niu Youdao: "Tell what? Say that I sent the letter that led them here? What evidence did he have? Even if he wanted to sow discord without any evidence, he was at least a suspect! Since he already knew that I wasn't willing to give the person to Purple Golden Cave, he wouldn't expose the matter. If he really let Kun Linshu and his wife's disposal fall into Purple Golden Cave's hands, would he be prepared to continue bargaining with Purple Golden Cave? The best way was to let go! He's a smart man. He won't talk to Purple Golden Cave anymore. He'll probably leave. "
With that, he turned around and left.
Inside the corridor, Kun Linshu and his wife were still there. They leaned against each other, dejected and dejected, not saying a word.
Niu Youdao, who had just entered, sighed and said, "Now that things have come to this, it's fine even if we don't play with those people from the Heavenly Fire Cult anymore. After all, they don't have anything good to offer. You should know what they are thinking by asking you to go to the Saint Land. It's their fault for causing such a mess. You don't have to blame yourselves too much, just face the reality."
…
"Brother Yuwen, what are you guys doing?" Gong Lince noticed that something was wrong.
He originally thought that the people from Heavenly Fire Cult were going to return to the guest house, and he was prepared to negotiate a second round with them. Who knew that the people from Heavenly Fire Cult led by Yuwen Yan were going in the wrong direction, and wanted to go their separate ways.
Yuwen Yan said coldly, "I'm sorry to disturb you by visiting so abruptly. I still have things to do at Heavenly Fire Cult, so I'll go back first."
Gong Lince was stunned, and quickly said, "Brother Yuwen, I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. How about this, we're considered old friends, and I have to give my sect an explanation. I can take a step back, and we can sit down and talk slowly. "
Yuwen Yan said, "There's no point in beating around the bush. I said ten million. Can you do it or not? Just give me a straightforward answer."
If he could pay a small price to get them back, he still wanted to get them back. If the price was too high, then forget it.
Gong Lince chuckled, "Brother Yuwen, are you trying to get rid of a beggar?"
Yuwen Yan didn't say anything else, and turned around to signal. The people below immediately waved their finger bells, and soon, a few large birds were summoned.
Yuwen Yan took the lead, and the people following him jumped onto the birds, and then they rode the birds and flew away.
"Brother Yuwen …" Gong Lince shouted from the ground, but the birds that flew away did not respond, and gradually disappeared into the distance.
"…" The people from Purple Golden Cave were dumbfounded, and looked at each other.
After such a long time, they had made sufficient preparations, but in the end, this was the result. Not going to talk anymore?
"Sect Master, is our price too high?" Elder Fu Junrang tried to ask.
Gong Lince said in a low voice, "It's reasonable for us to ask for a high price. He's not a fool, doesn't he know how to bargain?"
Everyone thought about it and agreed. Gong Lince looked back in the direction of the thatched cottage, and his eyes flickered for a while. Finally, he flashed away.
The rest of the people looked at each other, and also flew away.
When these people returned, Niu Youdao came out to welcome them again.
Gong Lince said as soon as he saw them, "Yuwen Yan and the others have left. They have returned to Heaven Fire Cult."
Niu Youdao was well aware of this, but he asked, "How much did they agree to give?" He looked like he was eager to share the benefits.
Gong Lince said, "After they met, they lost interest in talking. They didn't even give a single cent and left just like that. Elder Niu, do you know what's going on? "
Niu Youdao was shocked, "Impossible! How could this be? Sect Master, you're asking me, but I'm the one who wants to ask you. "
Gong Lince said indifferently, "Before Yuwen Yan left, at the door, what did he say to you?"
Niu Youdao was stunned, "Nothing much. He called me over and gave me a sentence. I'm still trying to figure out what it means."
Gong Lince immediately asked, "What sentence did he give you?"
Niu Youdao frowned and muttered, "He gave me five words. He said, 'I received the letter!'" He didn't hide anything and honestly told the truth.
"The letter, I received …" Gong Lince muttered and couldn't figure out what it meant. He looked at the others around him and obviously couldn't figure out what it meant. He then asked Niu Youdao again, "That's all he said to you?"
Niu Youdao was slightly dissatisfied, "Sect Master, what do you mean by this? Do you think I'm lying to you? It's just a sentence, do you think there's time to talk so much? "
That's true, even if they didn't talk about this, they couldn't talk for too long. Gong Lince was silent for a moment, then said, "We shouldn't have let them meet this. The reason why Yuwen Yan didn't want to talk is probably because she had already conveyed the message to Kun Linshu. Using Kun Linshu's master as a threat, there's no need to worry that Kun Linshu would leak the secret."
Niu Youdao muttered in his heart, those who could climb to this position were indeed not easy to deal with.
The rest of the people from the Purple Golden Cave heard this and suddenly understood.
However, Yan Li immediately looked at Niu Youdao and tried to ask, "Elder Niu, did you do something?"
"What do you mean?" Niu Youdao immediately retorted and asked, "Are you saying that I asked Heaven Fire Order to use Kun Linshu's master as a threat? I say, Elder Yan, it's not like you don't know. Not long after the competition, Qian Fucheng used their master, Pang Zhuo, as a threat, but I stopped him. It was Qian Fucheng who mentioned this just now, you can't possibly say that I discussed it with Qian Fucheng, right? "
He turned around and asked Gong Lince, "Sect Master, did I object to letting them meet in the beginning? I didn't want to because I was worried that something might happen, but you insisted … "
"Alright!" Gong Lince raised his hand and interrupted him, not letting him continue. If he did, it would become his responsibility. If he insisted on doing things his own way and didn't listen to advice, it would be hard for him to absolve himself of blame. He played it down with one sentence and said, "If he wanted to verify the hostages, he had no choice but to let them meet. Things have already happened, and Yuwen Yan took advantage of the loophole. Let's think of another way."
However, the others from Purple Golden Cave were already looking at him suspiciously. Did Niu Youdao talk to the Sect Master about this before?
When the two of them were talking to each other, the others didn't know what they were talking about.
After a while, Gong Lince and the others left again, leaving only Yan Li behind, lingering by Niu Youdao's side. From time to time, he would mutter a few sentences, "Things were going well, how did it suddenly turn out like this? It's really strange."
Sitting in the pavilion and drinking tea, Niu Youdao held his sword in one hand and glanced at Yan Li, who was pacing back and forth in front of him from time to time. He gritted his teeth and wished he could pull out his sword and stab this old guy a few times to make him bleed, so that he wouldn't be so long-winded.
He wasn't stupid. How could he not see that Yan Li was still suspicious of him? In the end, he couldn't help but blurt out, "Get out of here, you're not welcome here!"
He really couldn't figure it out. He didn't know what kind of medicine this old guy had taken. It was obvious that the matter had nothing to do with him, and he had also cleanly denied it. There was no evidence to show that it was related to him, but this old guy just had to beat around the bush and still suspect him. How could there be such a reason? It was hard not to be angry.
Yan Li immediately turned around and said, "Junior Brother Niu, why are you angry?"
Bang! Niu Youdao slammed the table and stood up, "Angry my ass! Do you think I can't tell that you're being sarcastic and sarcastic? Let me ask you, for Purple Golden Cave, is it better to negotiate and profit, or to keep these two people? "
Yan Li said, "Of course it's better to negotiate and profit. What's the use of having these two people?"
Niu Youdao retorted, "From what you're saying, Purple Golden Cave isn't stupid. I'm the one who's stupid. I don't want the benefits, but instead, I want these two people who don't want to submit. What's the use of raising two Heavenly Fire Cult disciples in my hands?"
Yan Li said seriously, "You can't say it like that. These two might not be of much use to Purple Golden Cave, but it's different to you. After all, they're two people."
"Get out!" Niu Youdao shouted. He was really angry. There was no use talking to this old bastard. How could there be such a person? Since he couldn't reason with him, he could only use the hard way. "I don't have time to argue with you. Someone, throw him out!"
"Junior Brother Niu, I was just saying. Why are you so angry? I asked you to prepare more food and wine. It's getting late, so I'll eat here tonight. "
"I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
"Elder Yan, please!"
Yan Li was very helpless. The host didn't want the guest to stay, so he was forcibly 'invited' out by a few people.
Afterwards, Guan Fangyi appeared and said worriedly, "Daoye, this Yan Li seems to be suspicious of you. Will you be okay?"
Niu Youdao said unhappily, "When did he not suspect me? He would suspect me for half a day even if I just fart. Dog, old bastard, eating and drinking here for a long time … Unsatisfied ingrate. I'm annoyed when I see him. In the future, without my permission, don't let him in! He still wants to eat this old man's food. Knock out his teeth … Pass on my words. Ask the people in the Northern Prefecture to take action and kill his people. "
