Without further ado, after separating from Lou Linxuan, Zhuo Mufeng first secretly contacted Aunt Lei, and then summoned the eight masters of the Demon Sect in a serious manner, saying that he would secretly return to Weiyu City. By then, the eight people could not find him.
To involve others.
"Young Master Zhuo, forgive Yao for being frank, your situation is not good now. It is better not to leave the city lord's mansion if you can," Yao Wu advised.
Zhuo Mufeng sighed: "I can't help it. That bastard Zhang Jiaquan doesn't trust me at all, and because my martial arts has improved, he has become suspicious. If I don't go back, my father-in-law and mother-in-law may be in danger."
Everyone present knew that Wu Guanting and his wife were imprisoned in the Jiedushi Mansion, and they also knew that although Zhuo Mufeng was shameless, he had a deep relationship with his little wife.
There is nothing anyone can do to persuade someone to put himself in danger for the safety of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Besides, with his current martial arts skills, if he is careful, nothing will happen.
The unwise monk volunteered and said, "Master, I will go with you."
Zhuo Mufeng said calmly: "No need." Just kidding, if this old bald donkey follows, the people in the dark may not take action.
He had a distant and indifferent look on his face. After he finished speaking, he ignored everyone with different expressions and left the courtyard.
"This kid really thinks that he is nothing. If it weren't for the Demon Emperor Pearl and the current situation, I would be the first to kill him!" Nu Yan Luo couldn't stand Zhuo Mufeng's arrogance.
Taoist Xuanyi on the side said surreptitiously: "I'm afraid you can't kill me by yourself."
Aunt Lei had already communicated with Zhuo Mufeng beforehand. In order to eliminate the unnecessary suspicion of the people in the dark, she deliberately said to the ignorant monk: "Bald donkey, that kid doesn't trust you at all. How could he let you follow him? Why do you need a stick?"
Jin, wouldn’t it be good to be the head of the Blood Demon Flow yourself?”
The ignorant monk thought to himself, you know nothing, Wanhua Demon is probably not dead. If he comes back one day and finds that his disciples and disciples don't take his words seriously, even if he kills you ten times, it won't be enough!
"You don't need to worry about my affairs!" The wise monk shook his sleeves and shouted angrily, turned around and walked away.
Everyone was speechless. They looked at the back of the wise monk with a look of stupidity, and the angry Yama laughed angrily: "This old bald donkey is hopeless!"
Among the crowd, only Taoist Xuanyi's eyes were flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At nightfall, a figure passed through the crowd of soldiers and left the city lord's palace. Soon after, Song Lele, who was arranged by Lou Linxuan to pay attention to the matter, quickly came to Zhuo Mufeng's study.
Seeing that Zhuo Mufeng and Lou Linxuan were both there, Song Lele immediately said: "Uncle, Lao Lou, I heard from the soldiers that Taoist Xuanyi has left the city lord's mansion."
boom!
Zhuo Mufeng slapped the table, stood up from the chair, and looked into Lou Linxuan's eyes, both seeing complete shock in the other's eyes.
Lou Linxuan said in a deep voice: "My uncle, calm down. We are not sure yet that he is Taoist Xuanyi. Maybe the real target has not been taken yet."
As soon as the front foot said that he was leaving, Taoist Xuanyi stepped out with the back foot. If there is no connection between the two, the possibility is slim. Zhuo Mufeng walked to the carved wooden window, holding the window frame with his hand, with a cold expression.
Song Lele didn't know what the two were planning, and was about to ask questions when Lou Linxuan ordered him to go back and investigate again. Realizing that the matter was serious, Song Lele had no choice but to suppress her curiosity and turn around to leave.
The night passed very long. Zhuo Mufeng and Lou Linxuan stayed in the study room to discuss matters. Until dawn, Song Lele returned and said that except for Taoist Xuanyi, the other seven masters of the Demon Sect had not left.
"It must be him, Uncle Lou. It seems that the cloaked man is probably in Baijiang City. If it's not him, it must be a close confidant around him!"
The reason is very simple. If Taoist Xuanyi has been in secret contact with the cloaked man and has some plot against him, Zhuo Mufeng, judging by the distance between the two parties, unless the cloaked man or someone who can make the decision is nearby, otherwise as Taoist Xuanyi
, there is no need to go out.
Lou Linxuan: "Uncle, please act according to the plan immediately. Tell Aunt Lei the whole story, and let him inform the other six people from the Demon Sect. With the combined power of the seven people, we will be able to keep you safe secretly, and even gain something."
.”
In fact, Lou Linxuan regretted it. If he had known this, he should have taken action last night. Maybe he could catch Taoist Xuanyi and his contacts!
But at that time, I was also afraid of making a mistake in judgment. If the target hadn't taken action yet, if I informed them in advance, I would actively leak the plan here.
It was related to the overall situation, so Lou Linxuan couldn't help but be careless. Even if he had to do it over again, he knew that he would still make the same choice.
The fish had been hooked, and Zhuo Mufeng was of course not hesitant. He signaled to Lou Linxuan and Song Lele and hurriedly left the study.
After the others left, Song Lele hurriedly asked: "Old Lou, you are so mysterious, what are you doing?"
Lou Linxuan shook his feather fan lightly, his hair on his temples fluttering slightly, looking at the ray of golden sun outside the door, smiling lightly and saying nothing.
Zhuo Mufeng confessed everything to him, but did not tell Song Lele and others. As Zhuo Mufeng's adviser, of course he could not undermine the other party.
Maybe Zhuo Mufeng will bring Song Lele and others in soon, but at least not yet. For a moment, Lou Linxuan thought of the alliance leader, and his smile changed slightly.
By doing this, does it count as changing the family and betraying the leader?
After receiving the news, Aunt Lei was shocked and quickly informed the other six masters about the matter. However, she took the matter on herself and said that she had designed this act to lure the snake out of the cave, and Zhuo Mufeng also acted in cooperation.
.
In this way, it can not only eliminate the hostility of other people in the Demon Sect towards Zhuo Mufeng, but also improve Aunt Lei's prestige, which is beneficial to both parties.
"I didn't want to harm Xuanyi, but if he really contacted the cloaked man secretly, we must ask clearly, so as not to be sold and still counting the money. You all know how powerful the cloaked man is." Aunt Lei said sternly.
After the initial anger, the other people quickly calmed down, knowing that Aunt Lei was doing this for everyone.
Angry Yama snorted: "Then what are you waiting for? Just follow that kid!"
At this time, Zhuo Mufeng had already disguised himself and left the city without revealing his disguise mask, lest Taoist Xuanyi would not recognize him.
What happened next was far beyond the expectations of the seven masters of the Demon Sect.
The imagined attack did not come. Zhuo Mufeng drove for three days, but it was still calm. With Taoist Xuanyi's methods, it was impossible to find Zhuo Mufeng for three days.
It is impossible to wait for the opportunity, because the opportunity is fleeting, and if Taoist Xuanyi has doubts, he will not take action next.
Could it be that there was a flaw in the plan?
The seven masters of the Demon Sect couldn't figure it out, and then they discovered that Zhuo Mufeng suddenly changed his direction and flew towards Baijiang City. The journey was uneventful.
Returning to the city lord's palace, Zhuo Mufeng told Lou Linxuan everything that happened.
Lou Linxuan said in a concentrated voice: "There are only two possibilities. First, the man in the cloak saw that this was a conspiracy. Second, I remember my uncle said that there is a unified realm around the man in the cloak that can temporarily block his perception.
Master, maybe the other party discovered the traces of Aunt Lei and others, so they stopped their actions."
Zhuo Mufeng sneered and said: "You are really cunning. Now we can only wait for Taoist Xuanyi to return."
Unexpectedly, Lou Linxuan sighed: "It has been three days. If my prediction is correct, I am afraid that something unexpected has happened to Taoist Xuanyi. Otherwise, in order to eliminate his own suspicion, he cannot not return for three days."
Zhuo Mufeng was suddenly shocked by these words, and he quickly understood the meaning.
The cloaked man probably knew that Taoist Xuanyi had been exposed. If Taoist Xuanyi came into contact with any key information during this period, with the other party's caution, it would never be possible for Taoist Xuanyi to come back.
This had been expected before, but at that time both Zhuo Mufeng and Lou Linxuan believed that with Taoist Xuanyi's martial arts and scheming, it would not be impossible to escape.
This is actually the hidden plan of the two. Once the cloaked man is forced to take action against Taoist Xuanyi, the latter will naturally not hide anything for the cloaked man when he is angry.
But despite all the calculations, one thing I missed was that the cloaked man was able to harm Taoist Xuanyi without alerting Baijiang City!
Lou Linxuan realized how difficult the other party was. This was the first time he actually worked for Zhuo Mufeng. Unexpectedly, he failed, and he felt a little ashamed: "Lou has betrayed my uncle's trust."
Zhuo Mufeng snorted and said hurriedly: "There is no problem with Uncle Lou's plan. It's just that the other party is too difficult to deal with. Besides, it's Uncle Lou. Only then did we know that Taoist Xuanyi had a problem."
The truth is true, but for Lou Linxuan, who is arrogant and always thinks he has a perfect plan, this failure still makes him feel even more ashamed.
Zhuo Mufeng could only comfort him: "Perhaps in a few days, Taoist Xuanyi will be back." This was also his inner expectation.
The same is true for Aunt Lei and others.
Just when everyone was full of hope, a luxurious painting boat was sailing leisurely on the Baijiang River.
There are six floors in the boat. In a dark room on the top floor, a man in black robes, wrapped in a cloak, sits behind the table like a stone sculpture. Opposite him, a man in black with rough palms is making tea.
A steaming cup of tea was pushed in front of the cloaked man, and the man in black respectfully said: "Please use it, my lord."
The man in the cloak did not move, and his voice was like metal friction: "How is your injury?"
The man in black hurriedly said: "My lord, there is no need to worry. Although Taoist Xuanyi is strong, he underestimated the methods of his subordinates, so it doesn't matter." When he spoke, his throat twitched a few times, he resisted the urge to cough, and even more
A fishy-sweet smell surged up and he swallowed it forcefully.
As masters of the Hexiang Realm, it is much more difficult to capture an opponent alive than to kill him. Moreover, Taoist Xuanyi is not a super master who practices five-star martial arts. His martial arts skills are high enough to rank among the top thirty in the world.
Although the man in black was better, he still paid a huge price in order to restrain the opponent in an instant so as not to attract the attention of the Baijiang City Lord's Mansion.
Three days have passed. He has swallowed a lot of precious elixirs and used his digestion skills, but his face is still frighteningly pale. He is afraid that he will not be able to fight with others for nearly a year.
The cloaked man looked at him, remained silent for a long time, and then took out a brocade box from his arms.
