Chapter 303: Each Has His Own Plans
After Yue Qingya drank almost a pot of tea, Yan Wenxuan finally stopped harping on the past and asked, "Fellow Daoist Tao, what are you going to do next?"
Tao Zi looked at him and said, "The baby case is almost solved. What other plans do you have?"
He drank the wine in the wine bag in one gulp, then threw it to his subordinate and casually ordered, "Go and fill it up."
The subordinate responded and took the others away as well.
Yan Wenxuan glanced at the yard and said, "Alright, there are only three of us here... Wait, what's with that tail in your arms?"
Tao Zi pulled the little fox out. He was stunned and instantly thought of what happened before: "Could it be that you killed those people too? That's not right. Didn't they say it was a monk?"
He was silent for three seconds, then hesitantly said, "It seems, it seems, maybe there's another monk there?"
Tao Zi couldn't deny it and changed the subject: "What did you want to say just now?"
Yan Wenxuan hesitated for a moment and said, "When Ming Lanzong comes to his senses, this matter may be blamed on you. After all, you are the only one who has communicated with the survivor."
Tao Zi chuckled: "So what? I have already offended the main peak. It would be strange if this matter was not blamed on me."
Yue Qingya lowered his eyes and said, "We lost both the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages. The main peak cannot send anyone who is in the Out-of-Body stage."
She replied, "Be direct, there is none at all."
Yan Wenxuan frowned and said, "I have a decent relationship with a certain peak. They can guarantee that they won't take action against you, but what about the other peaks? Don't forget, the Minglan Sect has seven peaks. Aside from the main peak, the peak masters are all in the Out-of-Body Stage. In addition, the Minglan Sect also has two Mahayana Stage elders."
Tao Zi chuckled and said, "It's impossible for a Mahayana cultivator to take action, and a Out-of-Body cultivator certainly won't listen to Xu Qianjia's words—their generation and strength are there, unless that person speaks up."
"I'm afraid that Ming Lan Zong will feel too embarrassed and take action in anger."
She said, "The main peak cares about face."
Yan Wenxuan blinked and said, "I understand. From today on, you are the hero who accidentally discovered the alien race and the demon cultivator. Not only that, you also helped the Minglan Sect eliminate the spy."
Yue Qingya thought more carefully: "Does it require him to appear even though he is seriously injured?"
Tao Zi thought about it and nodded, "Okay. After all, this is the negligence of Minglan Sect. It would be a bit embarrassing if we don't hurt them and take some things."
Yan Wenxuan couldn't help laughing and said, "You guys are really thoughtful."
She shrugged and said, "If it were the Sword Sect or the Heavenly Dao Sect, I wouldn't dare to act recklessly, but this is the Minglan Sect after all."
The little fox smoothed its fur and said, "That's right. The other sects have five or six people in the Mahayana stage, but the Minglan Sect only has two. The young sect leader can't even command them. If we don't bully him, who else should we bully?"
Yan Wenxuan was startled and said, "You can even talk."
The little fox ignored him, turned around and continued to bask in the sun.
After this conversation, the same question rang out from various corners: Tao Zi had saved the Ming Lan Sect's people and helped them eliminate spies, so why hadn't the Ming Lan Sect come out to look for her or express their gratitude? Could it be that the Ming Lan Sect held a grudge against her for defeating the Young Sect Master?
Of course, whenever such remarks were made, there would be people who would oppose them, constantly emphasizing that Xu Qianjia had excellent character and a great reputation, and that they would definitely find someone and reward him.
In this way, the rumor spread and turned into a gamble - betting on what good things Xu Qianjia would give to reward Tao Zi.
When Xu Qianjia heard this news, he almost went crazy, but he remained calm on the surface.
Lan Yongji said angrily, "Brother, are we just going to endure this?"
He suppressed his anger and said, "What else? In the eyes of outsiders, she has exposed the cancer of the Minglan Sect. Anyone in the sect who has common sense should thank her."
He Qianyi looked at his two senior brothers and frowned. "Big Brother, isn't the most important thing right now to find out the spies still inside the Minglan Sect? Also, why haven't I heard about the baby case?"
Lan Yongji said irritably, "I haven't heard of it either, but isn't the most important thing right now to deal with that annoying guy Tao Zi first?"
She said unhappily, "Tao Zi is annoying, but the affairs of the alien races and the demonic cultivators are more important. Also, why don't we know about such an important matter?"
Xu Qianjia nodded and said, "Qianyi is right. By the way, Yongji, go check on Junior Sister. She didn't seem to be in a good mood when I saw her just now."
As soon as he said this, Lan Yongji immediately turned around and left.
There were only two brothers and sisters left in the room.
Xu Qianjia said calmly, "Qianyi, send someone to look for them. It's best to make a loud noise and see if there's anything else on the main peak. Then, send it over as a thank-you gift so we don't give anyone a reason to criticize us."
She nodded and said, "I understand, but did Tao Zizhen really have any plans?"
"She planned it, so what can we do?" He pressed his forehead and whispered, "The most important thing now is to find out who blocked the news. This is a thousand times more important than Tao Zi."
He Qianyi opened her mouth but didn't say anything in the end. In fact, she felt that the most important thing now was to find out those spies and appease the sects and mortals below. But after thinking about it, she thought that her senior brother should have considered this, so she didn't say anything.
Not long after, as Minglan Sect was searching for someone in a high-profile manner, Tao Zi, covered in blood and looking weak, came into everyone's sight.
The person sent by He Qianyi was He Yinggui. When he looked at her, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. He suppressed the urge to complain and said a few words of concern.
She coughed and said gratefully, "Thank you, everyone."
He Yinggui took her to the nearby branch of the Chengyi Sect's Management Hall to rest, and passed the news to the Minglan Sect.
After everyone left, he said expressionlessly, "Tell me, how serious of an injury do you want?"
"You also said, seriously injured."
He Yinggui nodded and said, "I have already done half of what you asked me to do."
Tao Zi's expression turned cold: "This is your business, there is no need to tell me."
He continued nodding, "Also, the people on the main peak have a worse impression of you, but they have more important things to do and can't spare the time to deal with you. It's not certain what will happen later."
She smiled and murmured, "Even now, I'm still an ant in their eyes."
He Yinggui's expression cracked slightly. "Although the main peak can't deal with you at the moment, the Minglan Sect can. You'd better not do anything that will endanger the entire Minglan Sect, otherwise it will be a big problem."
Tao Zi nodded and said, "I know. Look, this time I helped the entire Minglan Sect deal with a cancer."
"They won't thank you, they'll just be angry that you didn't tell them quietly, at least on the main peak."
