Chapter 228: Like the fragrance of elixir, but different; like the fragrance of flowers, but better
According to the original plan, Ye Xingzhou wanted to wait until he found the location of the soul-stealing formation before asking the elders to break the formation.
At least this way we won't alert the enemy.
But when facing Meng Qianhan, Meng Zhi's murderous intention was too obvious.
Meng Qianhan is not a fool either. He will definitely guard the formation more strictly in the future, and the difficulty of finding the formation will skyrocket.
Furthermore, although Shui Yujun’s identity was not revealed, he was able to give instructions on the Soul-Snatching Formation and knew everything that Meng Qianhan was planning, so he must not be an ordinary person.
While Meng Qianhan was on high alert, he also secretly sent people to investigate the person behind Meng Zhi.
If the Shuihuo Clan is found out, the consequences will be serious.
What really made Ye Xingzhou call for help in advance was Meng Zhi's impulse to detonate his dantian and die together with Meng Qianhan.
Although it was only a moment, Ye Xingzhou didn't dare to take the risk.
Ye Xingzhou was worried about Meng Zhi's safety, and there was a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage guarding there, so any small move would be discovered.
At that moment, Ye Xingzhou suppressed the urge to rush in to save people and chose to call Elder Yao Xuan first.
Ye Xingzhou is not a reckless person, he is very clear about his own cultivation.
He is only in the late stage of Qi Refining. If he rushes in, he will only be killed and hung up to be beaten.
So he thought, it doesn't matter if it's exposed.
Anyway, there are evil cultivators hiding in the mansion. As long as the evidence of Meng Qianhan's collusion with the evil cultivators and his attempt to use the soul-stealing formation to take over someone else's body is nailed on the board, Meng Qianhan will not be able to escape.
By then, Meng Qianhan will not only be attacked by Yantian Sect, but such sinister tactics will also make him despised by the entire world of immortal cultivation.
The spiritual message for help had just been sent out. Ye Xingzhou originally wanted to deceive Director Kong temporarily and wait for Elder Xuan to directly expose his identity. Then the search for the soul-stealing formation would be a natural thing to do.
The accident happened at this moment.
When Ye Xingzhou found Manager Kong, he was about to slip away through the back door.
In a flash, Ye Xingzhou grabbed the man's collar and dragged him back.
At that time, Manager Kong was terrified and begged for mercy while holding his waistband.
The reaction was genuine, without any acting at all.
Manager Kong is a completely ordinary person, not at all like Lu Yue.
Ye Xingzhou also smelled a strange fragrance on Manager Kong.
It smells like elixir but different, like flowers but better.
The smell is very similar to the fragrance on the right protector.
Ye Xingzhou thought that Director Kong had been replaced by the Right Protector in disguise.
But when Ye Xingzhou found several other servants, he also smelled the same scent on three of them.
No matter how powerful the right protector is, he cannot use the art of splitting himself into two. If there is help from an external system, Ye Xingzhou did not say it.
When Ye Xingzhou tied up these people, they also had different emotions. Some were frightened, some begged for mercy, some were confused, and some wanted to sue the head of the family.
The reaction was completely normal, without any acting at all.
The only difference between the four people was their smell.
After Elder Xuan arrived, he immediately confirmed the identities of these four people.
They are not demon cultivators, but ordinary people, genuine servants of the Meng family.
Bizarre and weird.
What made Ye Xingzhou even more horrified was that the four people's memories were exactly the same as what happened in the past few days. No matter what details Ye Xingzhou asked them, they could match up.
The only thing Ye Xingzhou could think of as to how this was done was that the external system in the hands of the Demon Lord was causing trouble.
Now, there is absolutely no evidence that Meng Qianhan has colluded with the evil cultivators, and Ye Xingzhou has brought so many people with great fanfare, so Meng Qianhan instantly became the one who was right.
If they clearly wanted to search the Meng family, Meng Qianhan would have reason to refuse, and he could also ask other sects for help from Yantian Sect.
Ye Xingzhou had to change his strategy temporarily, which is why he interrupted Meng Zhi and told the truth.
The truth can be told, but in the current situation where there is no evidence, it is not appropriate to say it openly.
Ye Xingzhou then shifted the point of conflict to the fact that Meng Qianhan had blocked Meng Zhi's cultivation for no reason.
He quietly pinched Meng Zhi's palm to remind her, and fortunately Meng Zhi understood.
Wherever Elder Xuan stood, he was just a soldier. Although old, he had a strong aura.
The only soft spot on his body was the magnolia flower on his head.
"Meng Zhi, tell me, why did he restrict your cultivation?"
Meng Zhi glanced at Meng Qianhan.
Meng Qianhan played with the teacup in his hand, not looking anxious at all.
At this moment, he was even more eager for Meng Zhi to tell the truth.
So what if someone believes it? Without evidence to search for, the Meng family will completely break off relations with the Yantian Sect.
Meng Zhi lowered his eyes, hiding the murderous intent in them, and his lips opened and closed.
"My second uncle won't let me go out."
The corners of Meng Qianhan's lips curled up beneath his black beard, then calmed down again. "Meng Zhi, don't you know why? The previous patriarch had just passed away, and you disregarded ethics and moral principles and burned the body."
Meng Zhi only said two words, "Will."
“Nonsense!”
Meng Qianhan glanced at the people present and dropped the teacup in his hand heavily.
The teacup shattered into pieces in an instant.
Countless monks in black uniforms appeared and surrounded the Meng family, waiting for orders.
The black casual robe was embroidered with a pattern of a black bird using gold thread.
These are the three hundred Jindan cultivators trained by the Meng family, and they are only loyal to the person in charge of the Meng family.
They are usually stationed at various auctions, and if the head of the family gives the order, they will gather and show up to die.
"Elder Xuan, I don't know what rules Meng Zhi has learned in Yantian Sect after the Meng family has supported it for so many years."
Meng Qian sneered coldly and stood up.
"Today, you even barged into the Meng family with great fanfare and interfered in their affairs. Elder Xuan, you are really overreaching."
"Perhaps I should seriously consider withdrawing Yantian Sect's resources."
Meng Qianhan laid so many preludes just to find faults and weaknesses and take back the resources provided to Yantian Sect.
The Meng family was established by my grandfather. For nearly a hundred years, from the very beginning, my grandfather began to invest resources in Yantian Sect.
The resources invested are countless.
Meng Qianhan had been jealous for a long time, but the old man was still alive and he couldn't do anything.
Now that the old man is dead, and Yantian Sect has made another mistake today, it is finally an opportunity, and it can also make Yantian Sect bear the stigma of being ungrateful.
Elder Xuan didn't even blink when he heard these threatening words.
He knew very well what kind of person Meng Qianhan was.
If Meng Zhi's parents had not gotten into trouble, how could Meng Qianhan, a useless playboy, have inherited the power of the Meng family?
Everyone in the Meng family is chivalrous and loyal, but Meng Qianhan is a complete culmination of all these qualities.
The two sides confronted each other, and the disciples behind Elder Xuan formed a circle to protect Meng Zhi.
Elder Xuan said, "I only believe what Meng Zhi said. If Meng Zhi said it was a will, then we should act according to the will."
Meng Qianhan narrowed his eyes, "Elder Xuan means to make an enemy of the Meng family."
The sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed was heard.
A sharp sound of smoke came in, and with a cry of "wait a minute", an arrow flew through the air and pierced into the rock pillar.
Looking towards the source of the sound, everyone's attention was drawn to the figure on the broken wall.
The man who came was wearing a gray Taoist robe, with a stern face and a majestic look without even being angry.
When he saw who was coming, a hint of surprise flashed in Meng Qianhan's eyes, followed by fear.
The gray-robed monk said, "Meng Qianhan, I didn't know you had arbitrarily decided to abolish the family precepts left by the previous head of the family."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man jumped and landed in front of Meng Zhi.
"Uncle Yan."
Meng Zhi cried out.
The man Meng Zhi called Uncle Yan clasped his fists and saluted, "Young Master, I am late."
