"The last time the Liji Gate came to make trouble was eight days ago.
But they had been here once before that day.
The last time they came, they were full of momentum, and Master Huang was injured by them last time.
If Master Huang hadn't shown a strong attitude as a guardian at that time and did not retreat even if he was seriously injured, the guys from the Qiji Sect would have taken action and directly forced the Supreme Elder to hand over what they wanted.
"
Bai Xiuxiu said indignantly.
Obviously, when she thought of what happened that day, she was still particularly sad and angry.
After saying that, she pointed her finger at the wall by the door and said to Chu Yan: "Master Chu, look, that wall was cracked by those guys at that time, and we repaired it later."
Looking in the direction of Bai Xiuxiu's finger, the color of the wall next to the door really looked much newer than the one next to it.
At this time, Huang Ze spoke, "When I talked about that day, I remembered something strange."
"What?" Chu Yan asked.
After thinking about it, Huang Ze said, "That day, I felt that the meaning of the Limit Gate seemed to be to be tempted and I must get what they wanted.
But after they injured me, they seemed to have received some news, and their faces changed drastically. After explaining a few words of scenes, they hurriedly walked away.
I don't know what's going on."#@$&
"I have an impression of this." Mo Qiong nodded beside him, "I remembered it as soon as you said it. I also thought it was a monk who supported the Bai family's old city, which brought it to the Limit Gate.
pressure.
Later I went out to investigate and found that the city lord's mansion seemed to be organizing monks to investigate the evil wild rain forest. Whether it was the new city or the old city, most monks were attracted to it.
The people from the Limit Gate come in secret and almost no one knows it.
Therefore, there is no support from monks to the Bai family.
After I finished inquiring, I thought that something might have happened to the Limit Gate itself, so I didn't mention it to you again."%&(&
Listening to the two of them, Chu Yan pondered for a moment and made up his mind.
Eight days ago, it should be almost the time when Mali and his group came back in shame from the Evil Rain Forest.
Yes, that's probably what's going on.
The newly promoted Master Tianxin from the Qiji Sect took a group of disciples to the Evil Man Rain Forest for training.
I originally wanted to get some adventures and had a chance to get to know the immortal fate, but after a few days of going out, not only were the magic weapon storage bags snatched away, but my disciples were also killed.
If such news is transmitted back, the Bai family’s aggressive elder of the Qiji Sect can still sit still, so there will be a ghost.
And Chu Yan also remembered clearly that Ma Li told himself humbly that the elders of their Quanji Sect were working in Tongzhou City, so please don’t worry that they would be liable for the debt.
Now it seems that the so-called elders do things here to bully the Bai family, who has no heavenly state of mind in the clan.
"It seems that nothing can cause trouble. Suppressing cultivators who are weaker than him is really a lineage." Chu Yan sneered.
"Master Chu, what did you say?" Huang Ze asked curiously.
Chu Yan waved his hand: "It's nothing, then? The City Lord's Mansion recruits monks from the new city and the old city to go to the Evil Man Rain Forest to investigate. It must be a coincidence that we came to the Bai family at the time of the Liji Gate, right?"
"This is naturally not a coincidence." The Supreme Elder nodded, his tone a little low.
Bai Xiuxiu seemed to have wanted to say something, and her cherry lips were already open.
But after hearing the words of the Supreme Elder, her eyes suddenly widened, and an incredible look appeared in her eyes.
"The Supreme Elder, how could the City Lord's Mansion and others..." Bai Xiuxiu blinked and wanted to say something, but there were too many thoughts in her heart at this moment. For a moment, she didn't know where to start, "Our Bai family
…Uh…Pillar, how could it be…City Lord’s Mansion, it shouldn’t be!”
Although the words are intermittent and the words are fragmented, the most basic meaning is expressed.
The Supreme Elder's eyes became helpless at this moment, and there was a hint of coldness and disappointment.
After a while, she looked up at Chu Yan, and then said to Bai Xiuxiu: "How can the City Lord's Mansion watch? The people and monks in their jurisdiction only know the Bai family, but not the City Lord's Mansion?"
Bai Xiuxiu was very smart and immediately understood the meaning of the Supreme Elder.
But she still felt incredible: "But our Bai family..."
"All contributions are things in the past." The Supreme Elder sighed, "We are not very helpful to the City Lord's Mansion now, but instead become the City Lord's Mansion.
Our Bai family was the previous city lord. Now that he has stepped down, it still affects the jurisdiction of the current city lord's mansion.
This situation must be something the current city lord's mansion does not want to see.
In fact, when Tongzhou City was divided into new and old cities, I already understood.”
Speaking of this, the Supreme Elder looked at Chu Yan: "Chu Yan, you must have seen it clearly, otherwise you wouldn't have said that before."
Chu Yan's eyes were faint and nodded: "Power. If a monk can pursue a higher Tao, he will naturally not care about these things.
But since it is the city lord designated by the royal family, it is equivalent to being an official.
The monks in the government are first of all, the royal family and the government, and the monks are secondly.
For them, power is much more important than realm.
This is the biggest difference between it and the disciples of the sect.”
"Master Chu can see through it." Bai Ju couldn't help but exclaim.
Bai Xiuxiu's expression was still a little dull at this moment. Obviously, the words of the Supreme Elder and Chu Yan had a great impact on her.
Because Mo Qiong is the leader of a clan, many times, he cannot only care about the state of mind, but also the balance of the branches in the clan. Therefore, he did not seem very surprised at this time, but showed a thoughtful look.
At this time, the Supreme Elder said again: "The current behavior of the City Lord's Mansion is not actually to kill our Bai family.
If they really did that, the saliva of the people and monks in the Tongzhou City would drown them.
So they now choose to stand by and watch.”
"It's just that this is more hateful than taking action directly." Chu Yan said lightly.
He has seen the officialdom and knows how sinister the human heart can become for the sake of power.
"When the goal of the Limit Gate reaches its goal, something happened to your Bai family.
At that time, the one who will be scolded will be the Shiji Gate, but the one who will get the benefit will be the City Lord's Mansion.
If the City Lord's Mansion knows how to get power, and then pretends to support the Bai family and act in some way, the reputation of the City Lord's Mansion will immediately reach its peak.
Then, it would be easy to create more momentum and with the power of the City Lord's Mansion to eliminate the influence of the Bai family.
This trick of killing people with a knife is really good.
Unfortunately, the Singular Gate is now being used as a knife but still doesn't know it.
Speaking of which, I was very curious. How could a sect thousands of miles away know about such a secret matter in the Bai family?”
Chu Yan's eyes were burning, looking at the few people who were already shocked by his words: "Have you checked it?"
