After Qiu Changtian's various clever persuasions, Xu Yinglian finally calmed down.
The little emotions that were originally caused by her husband's teasing also slowly subsided - to be honest, if she still couldn't let it go after so many years, she would probably have been invaded by inner demons and gone astray.
Since the chosen one on our side is our senior brother, we just need to make sure not to be discovered by the other side, and then find a way to figure out the identity of the chosen one on the other side.
She checked the magic again and confirmed that her firebird's ears and eyes were still in the palace opposite.
Since we haven't been discovered by the other party, then for the sake of safety, we naturally have to keep investigating throughout the process and not miss any possibility.
The worst case scenario is that the other party used secret communication the entire time and never leaked any clues.
In that case, they could only rely on pure guesswork - but Xu Yinglian, with his keen insight, believed that given the arrogance and conceit shown by Demon Bone Master, it seemed unlikely that he would allow others to obtain the identity of the chosen one.
If he really had to guess, Xu Yinglian would directly choose this person.
However, since Senior Brother Gou is so powerful, let’s leave it to him... I won’t give him any advice this time!
She concentrated on manipulating the magic and observing the specific situation on the opposite side.
The two Shushan sword immortals were still blocked in the backyard, guarded by three men under Demon Bone Immortal.
There is only one aisle to leave the backyard. If you block the aisle unreasonably, the other party will have no way to leave the backyard unless they use force.
Really, why would I be so stupid as to fall into such an obvious trap!
You think you know a little bit about swordsmanship, so you just rush in without caring about anything, right?
Xu Yinglian was extremely contemptuous of these Shushan sword immortals. Not only were they brainless and stupid, but now they were causing trouble for us Kunlun monks. It was really hilarious!
The night passed like this. The next morning, Xu Yinglian finally saw Demon Bone Master personally go to the backyard and discuss with the two Shushan Masters using the secret sound transmission method.
Although he was unable to use magic to find out what the other party was communicating, True Man Mo Gu directly took one of the True Man Shushan to find True Man Jiuhua. The meaning was self-evident.
Xu Yinglian was greatly excited, and ran to Qiu Changtian, saying proudly:
"Brother, if you want to know who the chosen one is, you still have a chance if you beg me."
Qiu Changtian:?
"Junior sister, have you already found out the information?" he asked with a smile.
"Hurry up and tell me 'Junior sister is the best'." Xu Yinglian said impatiently, "Hurry up and tell me."
"You didn't see Mo Gu taking some Shushan cultivator to find Master Jiuhua, did you?" Qiu Changtian asked for confirmation.
Xu Yinglian's smile froze for a moment, and he asked seriously:
"So what?"
Perhaps she felt that her tone was a bit harsh, so she tried to soften her expression and asked seriously:
"How did you know that, brother?"
"I guessed." Qiu Changtian replied, "But this doesn't mean that the chosen ones have moved to the Demon Bone. Maybe they just released the signal on purpose to confuse you."
"If it's fake, it's real, and if it's real, it's fake." Xu Yinglian retorted unhappily, "In that case, no matter what I saw, it could be real, or it could be deliberately performed for me. In that case, isn't there anything worth believing in?"
Before Qiu Changtian could say anything, she said frustratedly:
"Forget it, let's leave it to my senior brother to judge."
Brother Gou, your words are so irritating!
I am obviously trying my best to help him...Alas.
Xu Yinglian was slightly depressed for a moment, but she was not the type of person who liked to complain about herself, so she quickly continued to use magic to investigate the situation on the other side.
Luo Bai's principle was to stay in the main hall, pretending to test the waters but actually confusing the judgment of Miaodan Zhenren and the two Modao Zhenren.
It was not until noon that True Lord Liandu came leisurely accompanied by his maid and said with a smile:
"Do you have any answers?"
"If you already have an answer, please tell me in any way you can."
So everyone looked at each other for a moment, and then, without any prior agreement, transmitted their thoughts to Master Liandu and told him their answers.
"Very good." Liandu Zhenjun stood up and said, "I'm going to go check with Jiuhua Zhenjun. Please wait for a moment."
Lian Du Zhen Jun left in a hurry, and only heard Miao Dan Zhen Ren said:
"The answer has been submitted. Can you tell me now?"
"Who is the chosen one among us?"
Everyone looked at each other, and no one answered.
"At this point, you're still hiding things, right?" Miao Dan Zhenren sneered and walked away with an unhappy look on his face.
Obviously, she had no confidence in guessing the chosen person on the other side, and she just made a blind guess, so she was in a very unhappy mood.
Not long after Master Miaodan left, Master Mogu came in again with three of his men, swaggering in.
"How is it?" He sat down on the table without any grace, and said to Qiu Changtian provocatively, "Did the famous Chang Geng Master finally guess it?"
"It can't be that my name was written!" Demon Bone Master looked around defiantly, and his three subordinates laughed in unison.
"Looking at your expression, it seems that you are sure of your victory?" Qiu Changtian asked in surprise.
"I've already said that, right?" Demon Bone Master narrowed his eyes and smiled, "From the very beginning, I had a perfect plan to break the impasse."
He stretched out a finger and pointed at Qiu Changtian's nose:
"It's a pity. Although it is an unprecedented first-grade golden elixir, it can't be my opponent when it comes to temple calculations."
"Do you think that I didn't notice anything about the peeping tricks performed by your Junior Sister Qiongying?"
Xu Yinglian was secretly shocked: As expected, my senior brother guessed it!
That was a close call. If that’s the case, senior brother should not have filled in his name, right?
"I'm telling you." Demon Bone Master proudly picked up the fruit plate on the table and rudely stuffed the Qiong fruit into his mouth, "I'm not the chosen one, and you'll never know who is."
"As long as we use secret communication the whole time, you won't be able to get any clues. This is an obvious fact, right? Unfortunately, the premise is that everyone reaches a consensus on confidentiality, but you don't seem to be united on your side."
He looked at the two demon masters on Qiu Changtian's side and said with a sneer:
"Through them, I got a lot of clues..."
"You must be the chosen one, Master Chang Geng!"
This time, both Xu Yinglian and Luo Baiyuan's expressions changed drastically.
"So," Qiu Changtian suddenly asked, "how did you convince those two Shushan monks?"
Xu Yinglian also suddenly realized at this time:
When Master Mo Gu took the Shushan monk to find Master Jiuhua, he knew that he was being spied on by magic, so he did it on purpose.
In addition to what he just said, "The prerequisite is that everyone reaches a consensus on confidentiality", this means that the two Shushan monks have colluded with Mo Gu, so they cooperated with him in acting.
But why...
"It's very simple." Demon Bone Master patted the fruit peel residue in his hand, "I told the two Shushan monks to choose two of the six of you to guess. As for the remaining four, they will be matched one by one by the four monks of our Yin Gui Dao."
"In this way, there will definitely be one person who guesses your chosen one, and the probability is one in six... Fair, right? So the two of them agreed. After all, they were allowed to choose first."
"So what?" Xu Yinglian suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice, "You, the Yin Gui Dao, only have a two-thirds chance of guessing correctly. If you guess wrong, what will you do?"
"No big deal?" Demon Bone Master laughed loudly, "Because from the beginning, I had no intention of taking the position of the Lord of the Golden Palace."
"As long as your chosen one is guessed, Master Chang Geng will not be able to win this duel... This is my goal."
"My real goal is to break your undefeated myth, Chang Geng!"
