Facing the "uninvited" Wei Changtian, the four members of the Jiuzhen Sect had actually already guessed what the former wanted to do using them.
Otherwise there is no way they would still be standing here alive.
It was obvious that the four of them believed that Wei Changtian dared to kill them and could kill them.
Therefore, if they want to survive now, they naturally cannot say "no".
"Master Wei..."
After taking a deep look at Wei Changtian, the old man in yellow had regained his composure.
His tone was no longer panicked, but it was neither humble nor arrogant. He just asked slightly nervously:
"You want to know who was behind what happened yesterday?"
"I already know this."
Wei Changtian smiled and replied casually: "Isn't he your leader?"
"..."
They looked at each other, and the four people's eyes instantly became shocked.
But before they could recover, they heard Wei Changtian continue:
"But in fact, he is not the real person behind the scenes."
"Or maybe Huo Tianyang is just being instigated by others."
"I think you have already guessed this, right?"
"this......"
There was a fine drop of sweat on his forehead. The old man in yellow probably couldn't figure out how Wei Changtian knew this.
But this is no longer important, what is important is...
"Wei, Mr. Wei, do you want to..."
"Yes, I want to find out who this person is."
Wei Changtian slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said calmly:
"So I need your help."
"As long as you agree, I will no longer pursue what happened yesterday, and the benefits I will give you will never be less than what that person gave you."
"But if you don't agree, or if you do anything contrary in the future, I don't need to say more about the consequences."
"Think about it carefully."
"..."
The tea is fragrant and mellow, and a few green leaves are swirling in the cup.
Wei Changtian stopped talking after putting the tea cup back to its original place, his expression remained very calm.
The four people standing in front of him swallowed subconsciously at the same time, feeling extremely entangled in their hearts.
There is no doubt that if they agree to Wei Changtian, they will betray the Jiuzhen Sect and Huo Tianyang.
Even putting aside the word "loyalty", the four of them knew that this would definitely lead to revenge from the Jiuzhen Sect in the future.
But if you don't agree, you don't have to wait until "in the future", you will die now...
"Wei, Mr. Wei, we agree."
After silently exchanging glances, the old man in yellow finally gave what seemed to be the only answer after more than ten breaths.
What he may be thinking about at the moment is to save his life first, and then consider which side he wants to take later.
But how could Wei Changtian give him this opportunity?
"Okay, since you agree, let's take this pill."
"Whoa!"
With a wave of his hand, four small jade bottles shot out from his sleeves.
The four people panicked and reached out to catch it, already understanding that the bottle must contain poison specially used to control others.
"Big, big brother..."
Looking at the jade bottle in their hands, the three of them turned to look at the old man in yellow with slight hesitation.
The latter did not speak, but just stared at Wei Changtian for a while, then slowly poured out the puppet pill from the bottle in the palm of his hand, and immediately swallowed it into his mouth.
"..."
Seeing that the old man in yellow was the first to take the elixir, the other three people knew that no matter what they thought in their hearts, they had no other choice at this moment.
Therefore, the three of them soon gritted their teeth and took the black elixir that might determine their life or death, and completely changed their destiny.
The mysterious aura appeared and disappeared, but after two or three breaths everything returned to normal.
Taking the Puppet Pill did not cause any pain, but at this time, the expressions of the four people were somewhat unspeakably bitter.
Wei Changtian only used a few words to make the last struggle and guilt in their hearts disappear.
"The four seniors can rest assured."
"Now that you have taken the elixir, I will keep you safe from now on."
"And if nothing else happens, the Jiuzhen Sect will be yours within a month at most."
"..."
Their eyes widened suddenly, how could the four of them not understand the meaning of this sentence.
After a brief period of astonishment, the pain on their faces completely disappeared, replaced by a kind of "give it a try" excitement.
"Sir, I wonder what I'm going to do next?"
His tone was no longer tangled, and his voice became firmer.
The old man in yellow changed his previous appearance and asked respectfully: "We really don't know the leader... No, why Huo Tianyang wants to kill you, let alone who is the person behind him."
"But I think this person must be a big shot. May I ask how you plan to find out his identity?"
"Don't rush this yet."
Standing up slowly, Wei Changtian said with a smile: "Four seniors, you have another thing to do before that."
"another thing?"
The old man in yellow clothes was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded: "It's just the master's command!"
"Um."
Wei Changtian nodded slightly and turned to look at the rising sun outside the window.
"Didn't Su Qi just send someone to invite you to go to the government office to discuss matters?"
"Don't delay."
"..."
...
On the other side, Linchuan Government Office.
"What?!"
Just as Wei Changtian strolled out of the courtyard where the four members of the Jiuzhen Sect lived, in the study room of the government office, Su Qi's face instantly became extremely ugly.
Looking at the black-clothed police officer opposite, he said hoarsely almost word by word:
"Is it really Wei Changtian?"
"It's him! This subordinate will never admit his mistake!"
The officer in black hurriedly replied: "He should have gone to find a few people from the Jiuzhen Sect, but he never expected to run into his subordinates."
"..."
Frowning his brows, Su Qi thought for a long time and then asked, "Have they ever fought?"
"I didn't fight before I left. I don't know what will happen after that."
The officer in black answered truthfully, then lowered his head and whispered:
"By the way, sir, Wei Changtian said a few words before letting his subordinates leave, saying that they were brought to you."
"What did he say?!"
Su Qi suddenly raised his head, feeling uneasy in his heart.
And the fact was exactly as he expected.
"Sir, Wei Changtian said that the ten-day period should be changed to five days..."
Quietly observing Su Qi's expression, the officer in black's voice became quieter and quieter.
"He said you know what it means..."
"..."
"Plop!"
His body went limp, and Su Qi fell back on the chair weakly, his eyes instantly becoming desperate.
He never imagined that things would turn out to be such a coincidence. Wei Changtian would not leave early or late, but he would happen to bump into the person he sent.
In this way, my plan to postpone it for a few more days will undoubtedly come to nothing.
More importantly, are the four masters of Jiu Zhen Sect still on Da Gan’s side?
His eyes changed from despair to unwillingness, and from unwillingness to determination.
Su Qi gritted his teeth, knowing that he had no way out now.
"Is everyone here?"
After being silent for a long while, Su Qi suddenly raised his head and asked, "Except for the four members of the Jiuzhen Sect, have everyone else arrived?"
"I'm going to ask you now!"
The officer in black responded and immediately hurried out of the study, then left and returned soon after.
Looking at Su Qi, he swallowed and reported in a low voice with some stuttering:
"Sir, sir, we are all here."
"Nine, the people from the Jiuzhen Sect have also arrived..."
