Chapter 315: Killing (2)
At the same time, a woman in casual clothes stood with her hands crossed in front of her abdomen, her expression solemn and her eyes lowered.
Opposite her were Xing He and his subordinates. They were dressed in rags, sitting in shabby positions, and could go out and beg for food with only a broken bowl in their hands.
He took a sip of his wine, examined the woman, and said, "How do I know what you say is true?"
The woman looked up at him and said, "We gave you that letter."
Xing He narrowed his eyes, and the scarred man who was leaning over beside him immediately sat up straight. "How do you prove it?"
"There's no need for confirmation." The woman looked at Xing He, "Deacon Xing, whether it's true or not, you should know it in your heart."
Xing He looked at the wine in the glass and said slowly, "Tell me what happened again."
"The master used Xing Li's men to spread false news of your presence, luring you out. Currently, the plan is halfway successful—Xing Li was about to strike, and you showed up. Now we need you to actually appear before Xing Li. He's too cunning to strike without seeing the real person."
He suddenly laughed out loud: "How do I know you are not the yellow bird?"
"Our goals are the same. Sacrificing you will do us no good."
Xing He looked at her steadily: "What is the relationship between your master and the eldest sister?"
She smiled faintly and said, "Sorry, I can't answer this question."
"I'll think about it and contact you."
Hearing this answer, the woman knew that everything was settled, so she bowed and left the room.
The big man with the scar on his face frowned and whispered, "Deacon, can this man be trusted?"
"We have no other options at the moment." Xing He spun his wine glass and added, "Go contact that guy named Yan. Maybe he has some information."
"yes."
Tao Zi also received the corresponding news. After correcting Lu Shaobai's spiritual energy circulation method, she turned back to Yue Qingya and said, "You just said that Yan Wenxuan asked you about Xing Li?"
"Yes."
Lu Shaobai on the side was very considerate and found an excuse to go outside to practice.
Tao Zi pointed to the table and chairs next to him, motioning him to sit down, and then said, "That's really interesting. Who told him about it?"
Yue Qingya shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I guess it's someone from Xing He's side."
She smiled and said, "It's most likely Xing He himself. He and Yan Wenxuan often spar, so they're quite familiar with each other. But if this happens, it will be fun."
He looked over in confusion, and Tao Zi explained in more detail: "So many people escaped, it's impossible that they all followed Xing He. For example, the man with a broken arm who appeared in Xulan Palace, who did they rely on to avoid Minglan Sect's sight?"
Yue Qingya waved his hand and said, "I don't know about that."
She suggested: "You can ask Wangxu or that fellow Daoist Yuan, they might have some information."
Hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Why do I feel like I'm a spy you've planted in other forces? It's Wang Xu, it's Yan Wenxuan, and now there's Fellow Daoist Yuan."
"That's because they trust you so much that they rush to tell you all the news."
Yue Qingya laughed dumbly and said, "If I have a chance, I will find out."
"Be careful not to expose me. The situation is special now. I can't guarantee that there aren't fake demons or aliens among those people, or even Xu Qianjia's people."
"I have a good idea of this."
When the discussion was almost over, news came from Liu Yue.
Tao Zi looked at the message and smiled, "The fish has taken the bait, let's go."
She took Yue Qingya and Li Xiu to a small town a hundred miles away, where a masked woman was already waiting.
Tao Zi and the other two were all wearing masks. When the woman saw the mark on the mask, she bowed from a distance.
She walked over and asked, "Where is your master?"
"To answer the young lady, the master is following the city lord and cannot escape."
Tao Zi nodded and said, "Okay, where's Xing He?"
"Deacon Xing is already waiting in the town. I wonder if the young lady wants to see him?"
She smiled slightly and said, "I won't go. These two will go over to handle things. You take them there."
"yes."
Li Xiu and Yue Qingya left with the woman. Tao Zi stood outside the town, waiting quietly.
To be honest, Yue Qingya doesn't need to take action against just Xing Li. The only thing to be worried about is that they may have brought other people with them.
As expected, the senior said, "The man previously called Old Xu is nearby."
Tao Zi was startled and immediately hid herself: "Senior, can you sense his exact location?"
The senior pointed in a direction and she immediately became cautious, because that was where they were ambushing Xing Li.
Yue Qingya couldn't defeat Mr. Xu, so she had to find a way to lure him away.
Not long after, Old Xu, who was hiding in the dark, was suddenly attacked by a spiritual consciousness. He blocked the attack, but before he had time to weigh it in his mind, attacks came again one after another.
He was furious. He glanced at Xing Li who was protected by everyone, turned around and chased in the direction of the attack. His task was not to protect Xing Li. The identity of the person who suddenly attacked in secret was more important.
Tao Zi fled in the opposite direction of Yue Qingya.
At this moment, Xing Lizheng had his men surrounding an inn in the small town. He said, "Stay here and don't let anyone escape."
"yes!"
He walked in with a few confidants.
Because of his weak strength, He Feicheng stayed on the periphery to guard. He looked at his superior who walked in and sighed in his heart. He had to find a new backer. It was really hard to be a spy these days.
Xing Li, however, had no idea what his new confidant was thinking. He looked at Xing He who was standing on the second floor of the inn and said, "Xing He, it really is you."
Xing He bowed gracefully and said, "Deputy Hall Master, long time no see. Are you doing well?"
He said, "If you are willing to come back, then everything will be fine."
Xing He smiled and said, "That probably won't work. We won't work for our enemies."
"Xing He, you grew up in the Xingtang, so you should have deep feelings for it. How could you bear to watch it decline?"
He sank his face and said indifferently, "Senior Sister treats you well, how can you bear to work for her enemy?"
Xing Li frowned immediately: "A traitor is a traitor and should be killed."
"I'm telling you this too. Traitor, you deserve to be killed!"
Before Xing Li could mock him for thinking too much, he felt the pressure of the Nascent Soul. His face changed. When he was preparing the manpower, he did not anticipate the existence of the Nascent Soul.
A voice so hoarse that it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman rang out: "This is the territory of the Ming Lan Sect. Let's fight quickly and decisively to avoid complications."
Xing He happily replied, "Yes."
The two groups of people were fighting each other. Xing Li wanted to retreat but couldn't. He gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Everyone, retreat if you can."
With that Nascent Soul here, he can't escape, but the other people in the Punishment Hall can't be killed anymore.
