The corners of Ding Wei's mouth tightened slightly. This matter is neither big nor small.
At the most minor level, it's just a personal grudge. At the most major level, Niu Youdao's current identity is here, and Xuan Yao is targeting the inspector appointed by the Holy Lord.
"Do you have evidence to prove that Xuan Yao is avenging himself in public and retaliating against you?" Ding Wei said coldly.
Niu Youdao: "It's just a judgment based on various signs."
Ding Wei: "In other words, you don't have any evidence, it's just your own guess. You dare to express your love to the Holy Lord based on just your guess. You are very courageous!"
Niu Youdao: "Indeed, I am just making a complaint to the Holy Lord. Whether there is evidence or not is not my concern. How to deal with it? The Holy Lord has his own judgment. If the Holy Lord punishes me, I will accept it. Sir, if I did not understand it wrong
If so, do you mean to remind me that I can’t report anything to the Holy One without solid evidence in the future?”
The corner of Ding Wei's mouth tightened again, and anger surged in his chest. The other party's words seemed to be respectful, but in reality they were contradicting him and using the Holy Lord to suppress him.
But he still suppressed the anger in his heart and explained calmly, "I didn't mean that. As long as it is within the scope of your supervisory authority, I will not interfere." It was impossible for him to say that.
If you give a warning, you are not allowed to complain to the Holy Lord without evidence?
Niu Youdao leaned slightly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Sir, for your understanding. I don't have any other intentions. Since I have a sacred mandate, I just want to do my best and don't dare to slack off. As long as I find any abnormality, I dare not hide anything and never deceive."
Holy Lord."
"Okay! Very good." Ding Wei nodded for a while, then snorted coldly: "Go away!"
"Yes!" Niu Youdao accepted the order, turned around and left.
Ding Wei, who was standing solemnly in the hall, watched the man leave, squinting slightly, with murderous intent emerging in his eyes.
Normally, he would have killed Niu Youdao right away. But then again, Niu Youdao would not have dared to speak to him like this under normal circumstances. Now he was relying on his identity and the life and death measures aimed at him.
The power is not in the hands of Piaomiao Pavilion, and no one in Piaomiao Pavilion dares to touch him openly.
If he didn't dare to say such words before Xuan Yao was arrested, he would dare to do so when he saw Xuan Yao was arrested and the attitude of the Holy Lord!
Slowly walking out of the main hall, Ding Wei threw off his cloak, walked down the steps, and went straight to the interrogation place where Xuan Yao was detained.
He came here in person this time because he was here for Xuan Yao. With him personally in charge, he could prevent other forces from interfering in Xuan Yao's interrogation.
Did Xuan Yao take revenge on Niu Youdao? He knew in his heart that he must have, and to some extent he had his own tacit approval.
A mere sect elder actually dared to point his sword at his people. He simply didn't take him seriously.
He had said that he wanted to skin Niu Youdao, but Ao Feng had appeared as a witness before, so he had no reason to force himself, so Niu Youdao escaped the disaster.
Now Niu Youdao has changed his identity and become the supervisor of Piaomiao Pavilion again. He can no longer act openly, so naturally he acquiesces to the secret plot below.
No one thought that Niu Youdao would dare to make a statement to the Holy Lord based on no evidence and only speculation. He was very courageous. And for such an unfounded matter, the Holy Lord actually issued a message to investigate it personally!
Xuan Yao is his confidant, Ding Wei, and many secret matters have passed through Xuan Yao's hands. There is no way he would not protect Xuan Yao.
The fear of implicating himself was secondary. Xuan Yao knew what he could say and what he couldn't say.
The question is, if you can't even protect your closest subordinates because of this incident, how can you convince the public in the future?
Bao Xuanyao might arouse some suspicion, but he still had to do it, which is why he came here in person...
As soon as Niu Youdao left the central residence, Qin and Ke, who were waiting outside, immediately came to greet him.
"Elder Niu!" Taishu Shanhai and others who were waiting outside also came over.
"Let's go!" Niu Youdao ignored them and led Qin and Ke away.
Qin and Ke exchanged glances and realized that the elder really didn't give any face to the Seven Sects and others. However, after following Niu Youdao for so long, they understood some of the elder's work style, so there must be a reason for doing this.
Uncle Shanhai and others looked at each other in astonishment. An Shougui muttered, "I wonder what Ding Wei said when he was left alone."
Previously, Long Fanhai, the deacon of the Demon Fox Department, was enthusiastic about Niu Youdao. Now he was talking to Ding Wei alone. There was obviously something fishy. What was going on? A group of people were scratching their heads.
After everyone murmured together for a while, they didn't care about their dignity and chased after him, heading straight to the Demon Fox Division where Niu Youdao was.
When Niu Youdao returned to the entrance of the courtyard where he stayed, a group of people caught up with him. Mei Changhong, the elder of the Blood Temple, shouted, "Elder Niu, stay!"
Niu Youdao stopped and turned around, asking: "What are you doing?"
Mei Changhong said: "Elder Niu, do the matters discussed before the lottery draw at Shoeque Villa still count?"
The reason why I didn't directly mention the joint fight against Piaomiao Pavilion was because there were guards from Piaomiao Pavilion at the door, and there were some things I couldn't let Piaomiao Pavilion know.
Niu Youdao also glanced at the guard, Qu Lingkun, whom he had met yesterday. It was his turn to be on duty again today.
Looking back at the faces of everyone, Niu Youdao said lightly, "What else can I say to you dying people?" After that, he turned around and went up the steps and went straight inside.
A group of people wanted to chase into the courtyard. As soon as they reached the steps, Niu Youdao inside said again, "Close the door! No one is allowed in without my permission. Any trespassers will be killed without mercy!"
Crunch! Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie quickly closed the door.
After being rejected and even almost hitting the door, the elders of various factions who stayed outside the door were speechless and looked at each other.
A mere high wall can't stop them, they can get in with a single jump, but 'rules' are the highest wall in the world.
Dare to break in and try! Niu Youdao said he would kill without mercy.
Of course, Niu Youdao's two soldiers and crab generals cannot kill them without mercy. The problem is that once they break in and take action, something will happen. It doesn't make sense. They are not allowed to do whatever they want in Piaomiao Pavilion.
It’s a place where you can’t eat without walking around.
"I really thought I was something!" An Shougui sighed, turned around and walked down the steps.
A group of people left the door and left here slowly. Huangfu Jin, the elder of Qingyue Villa, asked in a low voice, "He said that we are dying people. What does this mean?"
The devil knows what it means. In short, a group of people looked solemn. Seeing that Niu Youdao was like this, they didn't plan to join forces with them. They were ready to fight alone. Is it okay to join forces with others if fighting alone? They all guessed that Niu Youdao should
I know something.
Long Fanhai's attitude and Ding Wei's separate questioning are good proof.
Because of Niu Youdao's words, a layer of gloom enveloped the hearts of everyone walking slowly.
Qu Lingkun, who was guarding the door, turned his head to look at the group of people leaving. He witnessed the situation just now and found that Niu Youdao didn't take this group of people seriously at all. The group of people had no temper. This was really interesting.
, he was going to turn around and report it to the person behind him.
In the courtyard, Qin Guan personally made tea and brought it to the pavilion, placing it in front of Niu Youdao.
Ke Dingjie, who was waiting at the door to investigate, also came back and said with a smile: "Elder, they are all gone."
"If you don't want to leave, why don't you force your way in?" Niu Youdao said a few words while holding the tea cup.
Ke Dingjie hesitated for a moment and tried to say: "Elder, they should be talking about a joint confrontation."
Niu Youdao took a sip of tea and put down the cup, "Aren't they going to leave us alone?"
Ke Dingjie: "Elder, with all due respect, now is not the time to lose your temper. It is better to join forces than to fight alone."
Niu Youdao shook his head slightly, "It's better for us to beg them than for them to beg us. If they keep trying, it won't be hot yet. You don't have to worry, I'll take care of this matter myself." After saying this, he said with a smile again,
"Our petition to the Holy Lord has been responded to. Just now, Xuan Yao was arrested!"
"Ah!" The two of them were surprised and happy again. Qin Guan said happily: "This is a good thing. Xuan Yao has a grudge. It would be good to deal with him."
Niu Youdao: "You are overthinking. Wentian City is the central place of Piaomiao Pavilion in the Holy Realm. If Xuanyao can take charge of affairs here on behalf of Ding Wei, he must be Ding Wei's confidant. With Ding Wei here, Ding Wei is now in charge of Piaomiao Pavilion."
Ge, this kind of baseless thing will not hurt Xuan Yao in the slightest."
The two of them frowned, and Qin Guan said: "Since you know you can't hurt him, why would the elder still provoke him? Wouldn't it make him hate him even more?"
Ke Dingjie also sighed and said: "Yes, elder, it's not worth it to be angry for a moment. You are a bit reckless in doing this. Piaomiao Pavilion will not let you go. Sooner or later, I will have to settle this account with you."
"Do we still have a way out? Fighting for survival is the only option! Don't worry too much, I know what to do. Ke Dingjie, the map I mentioned yesterday is on the bookshelf. Take Qin Guan to take a good look at it.
"
"yes!"
After the two of them went inside, Niu Youdao stood up and left the pavilion, came to the door, opened it, and coughed.
Later, Qu Lingkun, who was guarding the door, came in, took out something wrapped in oil paper from his sleeve and gave it to him, and reminded him, "I will give you some extra dishes when the meal is delivered."
Niu Youdao nodded and understood what he meant. Why did he come in? When he came back, he had to find a reason to explain, saying that he was invited to add food here.
…
In the dungeon, Ding Wei read the confession handed over by the interrogator and found no problems. He threw the confession back and let the others avoid it, and walked deeper into the dungeon.
Hearing the footsteps and seeing Ding Wei appearing outside the cage, Xuan Yao immediately stepped forward and asked through the fence: "Sir, is it Niu Youdao who is complaining?"
He was not stupid, and as soon as the interrogator asked, he knew that they were investigating him for revenge.
Ding Wei nodded: "It's nothing without evidence. Nothing will happen. But it doesn't make sense to let you go immediately. It seems that my protection is too obvious. You will stay in there for another three days and undergo a few more interrogations."
"Yes!" Xuan Yao agreed. The husband made it clear that he wanted to protect him, which made him relieved. If he really wanted to be serious, he would have to shed his skin even if he died.
Being imprisoned suddenly and losing face, he could not help but feel resentment in his heart, "This Niu Youdao is too arrogant. He dared to express his love to the Holy Lord without any basis. He flew his golden wings again last night, but he didn't know that he asked the Holy Lord again."
What was reported?"
"Did you send out another report last night?" Ding Wei, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around and asked.
