"That's right! This is exactly what I meant!" Shangguan Hong solemnly stated his position without hesitation.
"Very good!" Jiang Tian nodded heavily, a ray of light flashed in his eyes!
With these words, he then calmly waited.
Not long after, the third elder, Shangguan Xuan, frowned and walked back to the main hall with a complex look on his face.
Seeing his appearance, everyone frowned slightly.
"How is it?" Shangguan Hong's eyes flashed and he asked in a deep voice.
"Third brother, have you found it?" Shangguan Bo, the fifth elder, asked eagerly with a hesitant look on his face.
Shangguan Tong and Shangguan Fei also looked concerned and eager to know the results.
Although the third elder, Shangguan Xuan, has not yet answered, judging from the other party's complicated expression, it is obvious that the matter is not that simple.
If he really wanted to find someone from outside, he could naturally bring him over directly, so why would he return empty-handed?
Sure enough, the Third Elder Shangguan Xuan shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid I will disappoint Mr. Jiang. I led people to search the First Elder's residence repeatedly, even the secret room where he practiced. Unfortunately... we didn't find it.
There was no foreign woman, and no foreign suspicious person was found."
"This..." Shangguan Bo sighed and looked at Jiang Tian who was about to speak but hesitated.
Obviously, Jiang Tian's speculation was not accurate, and the nine-level assurance mentioned earlier was probably just a bluff.
Shangguan Tong's pretty eyes blinked slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
If the person Jiang Tian wants to be found from the great elder is really found, the Shangguan family will be disgraced no matter what.
Well now, it turns out that the person Jiang Tian is looking for has nothing to do with the official family, and all the previous worries have disappeared.
"In that case, Mr. Jiang, look..."
Shangguan Hong frowned slightly, but a trace of deep disappointment flashed in his eyes.
Although he had expected this result, in fact, he would rather see the third elder find the woman Jiang Tian mentioned.
He even hoped that the third elder would directly bring a seriously injured and dying woman to Jiang Tian.
In that case, Jiang Tian would inevitably fall into rage, and then all his anger would be directed at the Great Elder Shangguan Tu.
For him, this is a desirable situation. At that time, he can calmly watch and make various cheap responses, which can be said to have hundreds of benefits and no harm.
It can be said that the result before him made him feel disappointed, deeply disappointed!
Everyone looked at Jiang Tian, and even the third elder, Shangguan Xuan, began to wonder if this boy was really looking for trouble on purpose?
After all, the other party knocked him back in front of the mansion, which really cost him a lot of face. If it turned out that what he said was a lie, then the previous promise of a fight would have to be fulfilled.
Otherwise, where would he put his face as the third elder of the family?
"Huh!" To everyone's surprise, Jiang Tian didn't seem surprised when he heard this. Instead, he snorted, shook his head and sneered.
"I have said before that you are thinking too simplistically. The great elder reacted so calmly, obviously he was prepared for it. It would be strange if you can really find someone by searching like this!"
"You..." The third elder, Shangguan Xuan, had just been very angry at the first elder. When he came back now, he had to face Jiang Tian's cynicism, and he suddenly felt a little angry.
However, at Shangguan Hong's signal, Shangguan Bo quickly pulled him aside to avoid causing trouble.
"What do you think Mr. Jiang?" Shangguan Hong said solemnly with a solemn expression.
At this time, he didn't say much if it was useless. What he wanted to know most was Jiang Tian's attitude.
"Are you sure that the Great Elder's residence has been thoroughly searched and nothing has been missed?" Jiang Tian asked attentively with his eyes clear.
"Of course not! Otherwise, do you think that I, the third elder, am just a freeloader?" The third elder, Shangguan Xuan, frowned and scolded him coldly, his face turned ashen.
When Jiang Tian said this, he was clearly accusing him of not doing things well, or even deliberately hiding his secrets.
The person who said this may not have meant it, but if the head of the family took it to heart and thought he was secretly colluding with the great elder, then what?
"That's not right!" Fifth Elder Shangguan Bo's face suddenly darkened, and a ray of light shone in his eyes!
"Hmm! You mean... that person?" Shangguan Hong, the head of the family, was shocked when he heard this, with a look of fear on his face!
"Yes! How come we forgot about the silver robe?" Shangguan Tong exclaimed and subconsciously looked at the third elder, Shangguan Xuan.
"Silver...silver robe for worship?" The third elder Shangguanxuan's mouth twitched and his face became a little ugly.
Seeing the fearful expressions on everyone's face, Jiang Tian couldn't help but turn cold.
"Silver-robed worshipper? Who is that?"
"This..." The third elder hesitated, and the fifth elder was also silent.
Shangguan Tong and Shangguan Fei had a hint of fear in their eyes.
"This silver-robed offering is really hard to describe..."
Shangguan Hong frowned and sighed, slowly opened his chat box, and told the person's origin in detail.
The story begins with the great elder accidentally rescuing someone while traveling, and then bringing the person back to the family to be enshrined.
"...That Lou worshiper has extraordinary cultivation and terrifying methods. It is only because of the great elder's life-saving grace that she only obeys his orders. To tell you the truth, even I can't kill her at all."
When Shangguan Hong finished speaking, he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, with a look of helplessness on his face.
Jiang Tian nodded slowly, his eyes flashing from time to time, and his face looked slightly solemn.
"If there is really a problem with the Great Elder, then...it can only be caused by Lou Chongfang."
The third elder, Shangguan Xuan, let out a sullen breath and his face became embarrassed.
He did search the great elder's residence carefully, even where Lou was enshrined, but due to various scruples, he did not rummage through the cabinets. Who knows if there are any dark rooms or special restrictions inside?
"Hmph! Even the head of your family is so afraid of you. It shows that the 'Lou worshiper' is really not an easy person! Since you are all helpless, I have no choice but to do it myself."
Jiang Tian's eyes flashed and he was about to step out.
"This..." Shangguan Hong frowned and subconsciously wanted to stop him.
It was a matter of family affairs, especially since he had such a bad relationship with the First Elder. If Jiang Tian, an outsider, was allowed to search like this, he would probably cause trouble immediately.
Introducing outsiders into the clan and doing whatever they want will definitely become a major mistake and an excuse for him.
He didn't want to cause such a big trouble rashly without sufficient preparation.
"Master Jiang, please wait!"
Shangguan Tong took a step forward and stopped Jiang Tian.
"Mr. Jiang, the origins of the Lou worshiper are mysterious, and her methods are really not simple. And even if she is really suspicious, going so rashly is not the best idea!"
"Oh! What do you think?" Jiang Tian shook his head and smiled, and asked coldly.
Shangguan Tong nodded heavily and said, "I don't think it's better than this. Mr. Jiang will settle down in our mansion for a few days, and we can think about countermeasures later!"
"That's very good! I just don't know if Mr. Jiang is willing to give me the favor?"
