The Taiping Taoist shrouded in light was obviously just a virtual image and did not have any sanity. He disappeared quickly after completing the task.
Hua Nongyue managed to calm down and stood up.
Looking at Ge Wanshan on the opposite side, although the whole person was shrouded in iron armor, she could clearly feel that the other person was equally shocked.
"Scared?"
Hua Nongyue's big black and white eyes rolled around, and she said with a smile: "For the sake of you and me being with you for more than a month, I will tell you the truth, this is just a strategy of mine, the purpose is to trick you into leaving this place."<
/p>
"Haha, why do you really think I'm stupid?"
Ge Wanshan smiled disdainfully, "Taoist Taoist Master Taiping personally cooperated with the law, not to mention whether you have the energy. Even if you did, in order to deceive me, a small thousand households, you spent so much, I'm afraid the court will reward me if they find out."<
/p>
"Hey, you are so boring."
Hua Nongyue said something angry, turned around and walked away without looking back.
Even though she still couldn't believe it, since the decree was issued, she just had to follow it.
The proper thing is to quickly organize the arrest of Wei Wuxie.
That's it.
Across a canyon, Ge Wanshan watched Hua Nongyue leave without any intention of moving.
It's not that I was really frightened by Hua Nongyue's words, but that's what you have to do when serving in the imperial court.
Don’t seek merit, but seek no faults.
If you leave without receiving an order, you are leaving your post without permission, and you will easily be caught.
Not to mention... Wei Wuxie ran away with the fragments of the Immortal Sky!
Ge Wanshan stood quietly, cursing crazily in his heart.
Now that I think about it, Wei Wuxie's lack of care at that time was just an act!
In reality?
This bitch is probably very confident that he can find the fragments of the Immortal Sky!
"Thank you for trusting me so much."
"Bah! You son of a bitch!"
"It's okay now, the imperial court and Taiping Road are arresting you..."
Ge Wanshan cursed and suddenly felt uncomfortable, "It seems... I still want to pray that he won't be caught?"
Once Wei Wuxie is caught, whether by the court or Taiping Dao...
You’re fucked up!
Ge Wanshan wanted to understand this and finally couldn't hold it back any longer.
"——Grass!"
……
……
Fengyang Mansion.
The largest capital city in Yongzhou Province is also the center of power of the entire province - not only the imperial court, but also the Taiping Road.
As for the imperial court, there are the Provincial Envoys' Department, the Provincial Envoys' Department, and the three departments of the Political, Legal and Military Affairs Commanding Department, as well as the Xueyiwei Branch of the Qianhu Branch in the province. Each department has a large number of warriors.
It can be said to be extremely powerful.
In comparison, Taiping Road is much shabby.
There is only one branch hall, and even the place where superiors and subordinates meet can only be located in a dark underground palace.
The candlelight sways and the air becomes turbid.
Twelve people, all covered in black robes, stood quietly at the foot of the stairs.
These are the heads of the various prefectures in Yongzhou Province. Except for the water ghost from Zhanghua Prefecture who did not come, all the people from the other twelve prefectures are here.
Hua Nongyue sat on the only chair with a lazy expression, "Yu Rong, tell me."
"Yes."
Sun Yourong walked out from behind the chair, still wearing the snow-white long skirt and tulle cover.
"Wei Wuxie joined Taiping Dao ten years ago and became the lowest-level secret agent in Shoufu County, Tongping Prefecture, Yuzhou Province."
"Six years ago, rumors gradually began to appear, claiming that Wei Wuxie had a thousand faces and a thousand bodies, a method that far exceeded the ability to open channels and change shapes."
"Three years ago, Wei Wuxie stood out in the Yuzhou competition and became a Taoist."
"More than a month ago, the incident involving the fragments of the cave in Canglong County broke out. Wei Wuxie happened to be passing through Zhanghua Mansion and volunteered to be sent to Canglong County to thwart the imperial treasure hunt."
"Three days ago, Wei Wuxie killed Fu Yuanlong, a member of the Blood-Clothed Guards, and three Taoist servants, Mei Zhulan, and escaped without a trace. The water ghost concluded that he had captured the fragments of the cave and wanted to keep it for himself."
Sun Yourong spoke neither fast nor slow, nor with any emotion.
"..."
Hua Nongyue was a little speechless, "The Taoist Master has issued a decree, why don't you seem to take it seriously?"
"Because it's useless to be careful."
Sun Yourong replied, "We can't arrest Wei Wuxie at all."
"Nothing can be done?"
Hua Nongyue frowned.
"Hall Master, Wei Wuxie has thousands of faces and bodies. If nothing else, his age, name, and appearance recorded at the main gate are all false. The real information cannot be verified."
After Sun Yourong finished speaking, she paused and said, "We don't even know whether he is a boy or a girl."
"Okay..."
Hua Nongyue nodded helplessly, pondered for a moment and then said: "If the imperial court blocks Zhang Hua's mansion, Wei Wuxie will not be able to escape. In this case, there will be no chance?"
"We don't have it, but the imperial court does."
Sun Yourong answered unceremoniously, "The imperial court can slaughter an entire Zhanghua Mansion, but we can't."
Hua Nongyue looked ugly, and after a while she waved her hands feebly: "Let's all go, everyone should return to their respective positions, and guard their respective areas. If you find any abnormalities, don't alert others, and report them immediately."
"Yes."
The person in charge of the Twelve Houses bowed and retreated.
A meeting involving the entire province ended hastily.
After everyone left, Hua Nongyue's expression suddenly became lazy, "It's hard for you to act with me."
"To report to the Hall Master, I just told the truth and did not act."
Sun Yourong, as always, refuses to accept people from thousands of miles away.
"You damn girl, are you still the master of the hall? Call me aunt!"
The flowers make the moon shine, and the willow eyebrows stand upright.
Sun Yourong was helpless: "...Auntie."
"This is so good."
Hua Nongyue nodded with satisfaction.
"Auntie, let me go to Zhanghua Mansion to see if I can find any traces left by Wei Wuxie and deduce his whereabouts."
Sun Yourong said without changing her expression.
"Don't go."
Hua Nongyue refused without thinking, "Although that Fu Yuanlong is dead, he must have recorded all the images you used before. Unless you make another breakthrough, you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"But how do you explain it to the Taoist Master?"
Sun Yourong still wants to fight for it.
"Don't worry about this."
Hua Nongyue waved her hand and sighed: "In my opinion, this matter has just been settled. The Taoist master is in his prime and still has a lot of life left. What he wants most at this time is to live again."
Furthermore, as for the imperial court... let alone the Tufu, I'm afraid they won't even be able to block it."
"Huh?"
Sun Yourong frowned slightly, "It's about longevity, why not?"
She wanted to go to Zhanghua Mansion because she was afraid that the court would take such extreme measures regardless of the consequences, and wanted to bring Xu Chong out first.
"It's just a fragment, even if it's the one with the rules, even Wei Wuxie may not be able to repair it in his lifetime."
Hua Nongyue waved her hand and said in a disdainful tone, "As long as the rules of immortality are not obtained by the Taoist Master, the imperial court will not go to war. On the contrary, the imperial court will probably deliberately let Wei Wuxie leave."
Sun Yourong suddenly felt relieved and at the same time a little confused.
As long as the Taoist master does not live forever...
What does this mean?
The imperial court itself does not covet immortality?
"Don't talk about this."
Hua Nongyue shook her head and took Sun Yourong's hand, "How is your mother lately?"
"It's still the same as before, raising flowers and reading."
Sun Yourong replied.
"Hmph, it's easy for her to be an elder."
Hua Nongyue snorted dissatisfiedly, "You are capable of opening up the meridians, but you won't even be able to become a hall master by then."
"Auntie should know that I don't care about this."
Sun Yourong shook her head.
"You don't care about power and status, don't you care about life-long events?"
Hua Nongyue chuckled, "If you only have the Tongmai realm, don't blame my aunt for forcing you to go on a blind date."
"..."
Sun Yourong was speechless for a while. Suddenly a face flashed in her mind and she nodded slowly: "I understand."
