Regarding Chen Taizhong's refusal to accept both soft and hard words, Lie Zhenren was quite speechless, but there was nothing he could do about it.
With competitors and the threat from Jianbao Pavilion, Zhenyi Sect really doesn't have many cards to play.
It took less than three days for Lie Zhenren to get the reply. Sect Master Quan's attitude was very clear: The origin of Zhenyi Sect is for this sect to be certified and realized. It is impossible to take out the sect, so don't even think about it.
If that guy can come up with something like the corpse of a true immortal, you might consider borrowing it or exchanging it.
I still think that the chips in the transaction are not enough! Zhenren Lie was quite speechless about this. Sect leader Quan was in charge of a business and his vision must be different from his, but to put it bluntly, he felt that what Chen Taizhong offered was not substantial enough.
Otherwise, the business practices of sect cultivators cannot be compared with merchants.
Lie Zhenren cursed for a while, then found Chen Taizhong and said in frustration: I have contacted Jianbao Pavilion for you, and you will get a reply within a day or two.
Chen Taizhong's face showed a very obvious sense of ridicule, but he did not say it clearly, he just nodded slightly, "In this case, thank you Elder Lie."
To be honest, even with the sect's feelings, he would prefer Jianbao Pavilion in his heart. There is no other reason. Those people can sell anything, as long as they can come up with enough chips.
Unlike the cultivators of the sect, who coyly want to be a prostitute and build memorial arches, not only lack the decisiveness, but also just want to take advantage and not suffer losses - where can there be so many good things in the world?
But this time, Master Lie acted very authentically. After contacting Jianbao Pavilion, he did not leave.
He stopped at the Haoran sect's station, firstly to facilitate urging, and secondly to give signals to outsiders. The Haoran sect was highly regarded by the Shangzong. Anyone who wanted to cause trouble over nothing must consider the consequences.
Of course, this statement was mainly aimed at Prince Feng's Mansion. There is no doubt about this.
After Chen Taizhong finalized the matter, he focused on finding the traitor - Master Bai's mysterious death. It could not be suicide, and it must have been the cooperation of a disciple of the sect.
After some investigation, he found that... the matter was a bit troublesome. If he checked carefully, there were more than ten suspects.
Why are there so many people? This must be blamed on the fact that the Haoran sect is too small. The sect never thought that they would arrest high-level immortals and imprison them, so they did not make similar preparations.
Master Bai was brought back to the station. It was discovered that there was no suitable place to detain this person in the sect. The disciples worked temporarily for two days and finally erected a building and set up formations and restrictions outside.
In the past two days, the number of disciples of the sect who have seen Master Bai reaches three figures, and there are more than a dozen disciples who have had close contact with him and who are suspected of being serious.
This result really troubled Chen Taizhong: If he investigated one by one, would the disciples be disappointed?
What's especially terrible is that he can't guarantee that the suspect must be hidden among these ten people!
Li Xiaoliu was quite decisive. She suggested that no matter who was involved, they should get to the bottom of it. In her words, "The purity of the Haoran sect cannot be tarnished."
However, Master Huangfu does not support this. He believes that it is inevitable for the sect to be mixed with sand. No matter how pure the Haoran sect is, it cannot be completely eliminated. It can ensure that the disciples will be screened out as they are promoted step by step.
Sand is enough.
Moreover, the disciples currently stationed in the camp are either the first or second batch of expeditioners or those sent by the Iron Blood Hall. Each and every one of them has survived a hundred battles. They are the essence and backbone of the sect.
Huangfu suggested that we shelve the matter for now and wait until the passage between the two planes is completely opened before thoroughly investigating the matter. Now is the time to seize resources, which will cause panic and affect morale and efficiency.
Li Xiaoliu firmly opposed what he said, saying that one should always strike while the iron is hot. If we don't investigate now, but wait two or three years or even twenty or thirty years before investigating again, where will we be able to find any traces?
If you can't find it, you can't find it. Huangfu recognized this dead truth and said that the disciple only poisoned the outsiders and did not attack his own people. He was abiding by the sect's oath and could not attack his fellow disciples.
What's an oath? Li Xiaoliu hates traitors deeply: If he can poison outsiders, he can poison his own people!
When Chen Taizhong heard that the two of them were quarreling, he asked the silent Xingu to express his position.
Obviously, Hall Master Xin didn't want to say more on this issue, so in the end he had no choice but to point out one point: if there was a traitor in the sect, this disciple was not the poisoner, but just passed on the poison.
That's right, Master Bai did not die of homicide, but committed suicide. With the toxicity that swells blood and turns into bones, once poisoned, the attack will be very fast. Even if other drugs are used to restrain it, the poisoned person will be in extreme pain.
You will be unaware of anything.
The two guarding disciples who discovered that this person was poisoned have been on duty for more than ten hours and found nothing unusual. Therefore, it can be determined that this person took the poison on his own.
When Li Xiaoliu heard this, he was immediately startled. It took him a long time to snort, "Even if it is passed on in private, it is still sinful..."
"It's better to pass it on than to poison it," said Huangfu, the former head of the outer courtyard. He had a deep understanding of many people's psychology. He knew that many disciples acted as spies for their own reasons. "The disciples who passed it on may not know what they were passing on.
thing."
Li Xiaoliu sneered, "Are you still worried about violating the sect by co-writing?"
Master Huangfu could only smile bitterly in return. He also came here when he was young and could understand Li Xiaoliu's mood. He knew that she was one of the vanguards of the Young Master Sect, so he didn't bother to argue with her. He just looked at the big ma Jin Dao sitting there.
Chen Zhenren there.
Chen Taizhong pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "Call over the twelve suspects."
"It's fourteen," Li Xiaoliu said firmly, "the two guarding disciples are also suspected."
He truly deserves to be a representative of the Young People’s faction, and he can’t tolerate even a grain of salt in his eyes.
Chen Taizhong felt that it was necessary to hit her, and snorted, "Then fourteen... I'll let you do it this time, don't expand the problem casually in the future."
Li Xiaoliu was taught by him, but he was not worried. The newly established Iron Blood and Zhengqi Halls of the Haoran Sect were the base camp for the new elite disciples. Although he was extremely ambitious and did not take others seriously, he was named by Dong Yiming and Chen Taizhong.
as an idol.
Hall Master Li is one of the representatives. She even dares to fight with the hot-tempered Hall Master Qiao, but she never talks back to Chen Zhenren's scolding.
Not long after, all fourteen disciples were summoned. They actually guessed why they were summoned. They were all worried, and some of them had uncontrollable anger in their eyes.
In fact, these disciples are not afraid to cooperate with the sect's inspection, but many of them still feel angry in their hearts: Is there something wrong? Based on my performance, could I be a traitor?
This is what Master Huangfu is worried about. No disciple will refuse to investigate, but they may leave because they are not trusted.
Chen Zhenren sat on the high platform in front of the hall, glanced coldly at the fourteen disciples, then glanced back, and then glanced over again, his gaze was slow and heavy, coupled with the aura of calm and authority.
Many disciples lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. They only felt that Master Chen's gaze was like a torch, shining directly into their hearts.
The so-called power of a real person is really not just trumped up. How could a mere fourteen fairies be able to stop it?
Chen Taizhong scanned back and forth four or five times before he stopped, and then spoke slowly, "I have called you fourteen disciples here. You must have guessed the reason... That's right! The death of Master Bai of Prince Feng's Mansion, based on your
The fourteen people are the most suspect!"
Having said this, he released his momentum slightly, suppressed some unwilling disciples, and continued to talk without interruption.
"Pali originally wanted to investigate the fourteen of you, but the hall masters think that it is a bit inappropriate for one person to hurt the hearts of the other thirteen disciples, so I hope that the disciple who made the mistake can be reunited with the three disciples."
Within the month, please find Hall Master Xin to explain clearly."
"In short, during this critical period, Paili hopes that everyone will unite sincerely and not be suspicious of each other. Disciples who don't know about this matter should not feel any pressure. Since you didn't do anything, Paili will never wrongly accuse you... Okay
Come on, let’s disperse!”
After hearing the words, all the disciples dispersed suddenly. One disciple moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, and finally shut up and left. There was no other way. Facing this guest minister of our sect who was invincible under the true immortal, the little spirit
Gods, the pressure is too much.
Since they left, the three hall masters looked at each other and followed them out of the courtyard where the hall was located.
Chen Taizhong glanced at the sky and hummed, "Elder Lie is so elegant."
"Haha," after a chuckle, a person appeared in the air, it was Zhenren Lie. He spoke with a smile, "Zhenren Chen's technique of using spiritual consciousness is indeed very unique. The small spiritual consciousness emphasizes awareness rather than thoughts. It is indeed a supervision
Good idea for suspects.”
"That can't be concealed from Lie Zhunzheng," Chen Taizhong replied without changing his face. He was not surprised that the other party could discover his own small spiritual consciousness. Zhenyi Sect itself started by playing with spiritual consciousness, and Elder Lie's spiritual consciousness technique was particularly powerful.
I even spied on him.
"Are those five people the only suspects?" Zhenren Lie fell to the ground and looked at each other with interest, like a curious baby, "Or do you only have five small consciousnesses?"
Chen Taizhong glanced at the other party indifferently, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, "Master Lie, don't forget, I know the art of Heavenly Eyes."
The combination of Tianmu technique and small spiritual consciousness was the reason why he gently revealed the matter, rather than being really persuaded by the master of Huangfu Academy.
Mr. Chen has never been a pedantic person, and he is the most disgusting person in his eyes.
When Lie Zhenren looked at him like this, he felt an inexplicable feeling sweep through his whole body, as if his whole body was seen clearly without any obstruction. He couldn't help but secretly exclaimed: Chen Taizhong's attainments in the Celestial Eye Technique,
It’s also quite impressive.
He smiled and said, "I've heard about Chen Zhenren's Celestial Eye Technique a long time ago. I wonder when you plan to practice Celestial Eye?"
"Let's talk about it later," Chen Taizhong waved his hand and asked indifferently, "What's the matter with the elder here?"
"There is news from the sect that Jianbao Pavilion can be reached within twenty hours," Master Lie replied slowly. After a pause, he asked with concern, "Does Haoran Sect have the Heavenly Eye Technique?" (Unfinished)
