Mrs. Hongxing, who always has the highest authority in Xiaoyue Mansion, always shows two completely different states when she gets angry. Everyone in Xiaoyue Mansion knows that Madam Hongxing does not always get angry, but as long as she gets angry
, that would be really angry.
The luminous cup made of Cui Leng Jade fell to the ground and smashed into pieces. Everyone in the hall was so frightened that they did not dare to say a word. At this time, only Mr. Xiao was sitting in the hall with a smile, but he seemed to be unfazed by the Madam's severity.
He didn't intend to interfere, but there was so much intriguing meaning hidden behind his smile that no one present could see it or see it.
The old man is so unpredictable sometimes.
Guan Ming shivered, cold sweat dripped down his forehead and fell straight to the ground. He knelt on the ground with his back bent, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Guan Ming, who gritted his teeth, was actually quite aggrieved, because this kind of thing was not easy to control in the first place. He thought he was fully prepared, but in fact, his opponents were coming with reinforcements one after another. He had no choice but to admit defeat:
"Ma'am, please punish me."
"Your punishment is light. I, Madam, should not believe your nonsense that can bring life to the dead. What did you say in the first place? You must catch the leader, right?" Mrs. Hongxing
Angrily, he cursed: "Guan Ming, I think you are getting more and more conceited. Okay, starting from today, stop being the master of Yuxiao Palace and let Liang Yu take your place. You can make an appointment with me to go to the courtyard of the forbidden area."
, let’s do it for three years first and then talk about it.”
When Mrs. Hongxing said this, everyone was shocked. Xu Qingshan was the first to kneel on the ground because he felt that Guan Ming was trying to avenge himself and Throat Killer in this matter, but now he has become the main person responsible.
Of course Xu Qingshan couldn't watch Pao Ze being wronged: "Madam, Xiaoyue Mansion failed to behead all the enemies in the first battle. It was the negligence of humble duty. Madam wants to punish, please punish humble duty."
"Madam." At this time, Wu Yingxue also knelt down on the spot, with a blushing face and said: "Madam, the leader of the thief escaped in front of my subordinates. Please forgive me, madam."
"Madam... Madam..."
Guan Ming's punishment was to leave his job and serve. Although he didn't suffer physically, in fact, in a place like Hongtu, if a palace master was removed in public and then punished to sweep the yard, it would be more uncomfortable than killing him, because afterwards
He may be promoted again, but the people below him will not follow him wholeheartedly. This is equivalent to letting Guan Ming lose face in Xiaoyue Mansion, which is definitely worse than beating him with a hundred or a thousand boards.
So, when everyone heard that Madam wanted to remove Guan Ming from his post, they all stood up to accept the punishment. Their intention was very obvious, that is, if they wanted to be punished, they would be punished together, or they would find other ways.
When Mrs. Hongxing saw that even Wang Mang knelt down, she smiled coldly and said: "I think you all have an idea, right? I will punish Guan Ming, and you will all accept the punishment. Okay, from now on, you are the Xiaoyue Sect.
The inner sect disciples, just like the disciples of the second pavilion who are enforcing the law and passing on the martial arts, go guard the mountain gate, go to hold rituals, and go chop firewood."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Seeing that Mrs. Hongxing didn't look like she was telling lies, they all froze.
At this time, the only two people who did not kneel down to accept the crime, Xie Ran and Wei Yihang, the principal and deputy masters of the Red Palace who also appeared in the battle of Xiaoyue Mansion, came out. The reason why these two did not kneel down was not because
They didn't want to share joys and sorrows with Guan Ming and others, but they knew Mrs. Hongxing's temper too well. The reason why Mrs. Hongxing was angry was not because they let the enemy go and cut off the clues, but because Guan Ming was involved in this matter.
In terms of handling, it is too arrogant.
If Guan Ming had realized that the enemy was extremely powerful and had rescued his wife in advance, he might have sent masters like Nie Renkuang and Xiang Potian, who would not have been easily run away by the enemy. In this way, Xiaoyue Sect would have saved
A lot of trouble.
Therefore, when Xie Ran and Wei Yihang saw that everyone was frozen in place, they immediately stood up and begged: "Mrs. Qi, I have something to say."
The one who spoke was Xie Ran, who knew the existence of Madam Hongxing the best. He was the person in Xiaoyue Sect who, besides Feng Jueyu, knew Madam Hongxing better than Wu Yingxue.
"Say." Mrs. Hongxing didn't really want to punish Guan Ming, she just wanted to teach him a lesson so that he would know where he went wrong?
After all, Guan Ming always felt that he was full of wits and was much better than ordinary people, so when he did something, he didn't like to leave any options behind. He always felt that his arrangement was a sure win, which led to the fiasco of Xiaoyue Mansion. Of course, she
But she never thought of sending Guan Ming and others to a forbidden area to clean the yard. If these people left, she would have no one to use.
Xie Ran paused and said: "Go back to Madam, I have invited the palace master to go to Xiaoyue Mansion to help. I have seen the whole incident. If I say something pertinent, I feel that the palace master is arranging the whole incident."
When planning, we made sure that every detail was taken into account.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Hongxing turned her head and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Then why can't you even catch useful people alive?"
Xie Ran quickly bowed and said: "Madam, a wise man will always make mistakes. What's more, the enemy is in the light and I am in the dark. Although the Xiaoyue Sect is right in Lingzhou, we don't know the origins of those people after all. We don't know the origins of those people.
There is no way to know which masters they have. The person who silenced him and the person who rescued the old man in black are far more advanced than Elder Wu and Elder Zhang. Under such circumstances, Palace Master Guan can still retain most of the opponent's manpower.
It can be said that it is not easy to let a few people escape."
After Xie Ran finished speaking, he continued: "Of course, Palace Master Guan also thought about inviting Mr. Feng to help me, but Palace Master Guan didn't say anything first. Xiaoyue Sect is a second-rate Tianzong with more than a hundred disciples.
Wan, how can you just rely on a few seniors and elders when you encounter problems? Everything that subordinates can do must be done with their heart. Because of this, the master of the palace did not think of inviting elder Zhang and his subordinates before implementing the plan.
And three hundred disciples in red came to help, madam, although our sect suffered heavy casualties in the battle of Xiaoyue Mansion, please bear in mind that the palace master has worked hard and has no merit, and allow me to be punished lightly."
"Madam, please give me a lighter punishment." All the disciples in the hall begged in unison.
Xiao Yuehe, who had been laughing with his eyes narrowed, saw this, blinked at Madam, and said: "Madam, what the Lord Xie said is reasonable, Madam, please give me a lighter punishment."
As soon as the old man spoke, everyone was filled with gratitude. Mrs. Hongxing, who was sitting in the first seat, also restrained her anger a little. She stared coldly at Guan Ming, who was already trembling. After a long time, he said: "The two retinues brought back spoke.
?”
Guan Ming quickly replied: "Madam, although Zi Que and Liu Ying are the personal followers of Fairy Yin, after being tortured along the way by their subordinates, it can be determined that they are not real followers to Fairy Yin and the old man who are leading the way.
They seem to deliberately conceal their identity and plans, and only call their subordinates when taking action."
"Xianzi Yin? Is that the leader's name?" Mrs. Hongxing did not continue to get angry.
"Madam, that's right." Wu Yingxue took over the words and said, "My subordinates have brought this man's body back, please see it, madam."
Wu Yingxue was afraid that the body would be snatched away along the way, so he kept it personally. Even Zhang Yuanze didn't see it. At this time, he stretched out his sleeves and a cold body fell into the hall. He looked at the beautiful and lifeless face.
, everyone started to watch.
At this sight, Zhang Yuanze exclaimed: "I think I've seen this Fairy Yin somewhere before?"
"Seen?"
Whoosh!
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Zhang Yuanze, who was astonished.
Mrs. Hongxing slowly walked down the steps, looked at the cold body on the ground, and asked: "Elder Zhang, have you ever remembered the identity of this person?"
Zhang Yuanze was startled and worried. He felt familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it before. He always felt that he looked kind. After a while, Zhang Laoshenghuang's pupils suddenly dilated and said: "Madam, I am not sure. I need to
Ask for confirmation.”
"Who can I ask for confirmation?"
"Master Feng, Shangguan Ruofan, or Huang Tianjue are also suitable."
"Feng Xiaozi is in retreat at Tiandaozhu. Go and call Shangguan Ruofan and Huang Tianjue." Xiao Yuehe waved his hand.
Ding Zhao turned around and left, because Shangguan Ruofan, Huang Tianjue, Feng Yixue, Yun Ning and others had been in retreat at the Golden Sky Pagoda without leaving home.
After a while, a cheerful voice sounded outside the hall, and Shangguan Ruofan walked in with a carefree Seven Star Sword on his back.
"Guan Ming, I heard that you have suffered a defeat. Who dares to act wildly in Lingzhou without any foresight? I will help you vent your anger."
Outside the hall, Shangguan Ruofan and Huang Tianjue walked quickly and arrived in the hall. Before his wife asked him to identify the woman on the ground, Shangguan Ruofan was suddenly stunned: "Oh, isn't that who it is?"
"Who?" Everyone was stunned when they saw that Shangguan Ruofan really recognized the woman.
Shangguan Ruofan looked at Huang Tianjue and said, "Huang Tianjue, do you think he..."
"Yes, that's her..." Huang Tianjue observed carefully for a while and said: "In the overseas cultivation world, Lu Yin is the disciple of the master of Langbei Iron Yumen Sect."
"Overseas cultivation world?" Everyone was confused by this answer. As we all know, overseas cultivators are the barrier between the inner periphery and the core. The cultivation level of the monks there is not as strong as the monks in the core area. How come people in the overseas cultivation world suddenly
Find Lingzhou and come against Xiaoyue Sect?
"Lu Yin? Who is he?" Mrs. Hongxing had never seen Lu Yin and couldn't help but ask.
Huang Tianjue said: "Back to Madam, when my second brother went from the overseas world of cultivation to the world of chaos, he had dealt with Mo Ling. At that time, Mo Ling selected a few of the most talented people and planned to bring them back in the past sixty years.
Mo Ling practiced cultivation, and this Lu Yin was the winner that year. However, later on, my second brother and I sniped at the Mo Ling envoys in Qingyun Gorge. Almost all the five imperial envoys were destroyed, and this Lu Yin was not able to go to Mo Ling.
Ling is cultivating, could it be that she is here to seek revenge? But this woman’s cultivation back then was only in the early stage of Miaodu.”
Huang Tianjue's words caused everyone to fall into confusion. Indeed, isn't it strange how a small sect with overseas cultivators dares to shake up such a giant as the Xiaoyue Sect?
