Except Xiang Sheng.
Ever since she entered the palace, she has been observing the Thousand Star Palace Master and has never been distracted.
Seeing all the changes, Xiang Sheng immediately realized that the Lord of Thousand Stars Palace had seen other similar fragments before.
She should have thought that the Lord of the Demon Palace could give the fragment to his son for use, besides love, there might be a deeper reason.
That is, the Lord of the Demon Palace has a better fragment of "Deceiving the Heaven", and the Lord of the Thousand Star Palace has just seen it.
Or maybe it’s not the Lord of the Demon Palace, but... the Underworld?
His thoughts raced for only a moment, and Xiang Sheng's lips moved slightly, immediately sending a message to Kui Yuan, asking him to change his next response.
"Palace Master, this fragment was snatched from a demon cultivator who was extremely skilled in body movement half a day ago when the master was traveling in the nearby territory.
Unfortunately, that person was very good at escaping, so the master only managed to grab the storage ring, and he escaped."
As Kui Yuan spoke, he covered his palm with the fragments in his hand, and a wisp of extremely pure incense scent was immediately released.
When everyone in the hall sensed this wisp of pure incense, their expressions changed.
"It's the incense from Shengcheng that Tang Yecheng brought back!"
Luo Mingsheng was the first to speak, "Such pure incense can only be brought about by the statue of Shengji in Shengcheng."
"This incense cannot be fake."
"What Master Kuiyuan said is true."
"Fortunately, we were encountered by the Supreme Master Wan Jian, otherwise this batch of incense would have been lost."
“…”
Listening to the discussions of the people in the hall, the expression of the Thousand Star Hall Master quickly softened. With the evidence before him, he had no choice but to believe it.
The smile on his face deepened. "This matter is due to my failure to supervise the Thousand Star Palace. I would also like to thank Master Kui Yuan for coming to return the incense."
"Palace Master, this is wrong."
Kui Yuan shook his head and threw the fragment directly to the Thousand Stars Palace Master. "This fragment is my master's only gain. There are not many incense offerings in it. In the past two years, your palace has successively replaced the statue of Sheng Ji, so the storage should be far more than this."
The Lord of Thousand Stars Palace took the fragment, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and the smile on his face froze instantly.
The incense here is mixed with some of the unique hostility of the demon cultivators. Although it is pure, it is less than one thousandth of the incense pool, and is not enough to fill the teeth of the Demon Palace.
His eyelids twitched and he threw the fragments back to Kui Yuan. He was not interested in this little bit of incense.
"Master Kuiyuan, is this really all your master has gained?"
Xiang Sheng watched this scene silently, his mind turning. It seemed that the Lord of the Thousand Stars Palace did not recognize the fragment of "Deceiving Heaven" and only thought it was a special Sumeru mustard seed treasure used to store incense.
"Of course, the master's gains are more than that."
Kui Yuan changed the subject: "They are just some of the things used by the demon cultivators for cultivation. The incense was found here. The master speculates that the incense among these fragments must have been secretly withheld by this demon cultivator for cultivation, and the rest has been handed over."
Hearing this, Wei Qing couldn't help but sneer: "I think your master has embezzled the incense and is telling lies here to confuse the audience!"
As soon as these words came out, Kui Yuan laughed. "Is this elder joking? My master is a sword cultivator. A pure sword cultivator is most taboo against contact with foreign things, especially Shinto incense. My master is not quick to dislike it, so how could he embezzle it?"
As he spoke, Kui Yuan looked deeply at Xiang Sheng and said, "Elder, next time you frame someone, you should come up with a decent reason, so as not to act ridiculously and make people laugh."
Kui Yuan's words were obviously full of hidden meanings. Wei Qing heard the hidden meaning and immediately became furious. "Asshole! You are just a servant, and you dare to..."
"Wei Qing."
The Thousand Stars Palace Master interrupted his junior brother in a cold voice, "Master Kuiyuan has come here on behalf of Supreme Master Wanjian. You must treat him with courtesy and not speak rudely."
When Wei Qing heard what his senior brother said, he immediately shut up. No matter how angry he was, he could only hold it back.
"Palace Master, I have delivered your message. I will take my leave now."
Kuiyuan bowed, looked at Xiang Sheng again, and without saying anything else, turned around and left.
The Lord of Thousand Stars Palace naturally noticed Kui Yuan's actions, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Although Kui Yuan didn't say it out loud, he was hinting to him in both explicit and implicit ways that Luo Sheng was a disciple of the Wanjian Sect.
That wisp of pure incense and the evil spirit of the demon cultivator could not be faked. Kui Yuan happened to meet Luo Sheng when he came here. Since he had met him, and it involved the face of the Supreme Lord, he could not pretend not to see it.
Although he could find other excuses to continue fabricating charges against this girl, he could also use other means to suppress his senior brother. There was no need to offend a sword cultivator with extraordinary combat power.
Thinking of this, the Thousand Star Hall Master's brows relaxed and he said in a clear voice, "Now that the matter has been clarified, you may all leave. Senior Brother Chang Yan, this is just a misunderstanding. Please take the little girl back and comfort her."
Chang Yan nodded silently, then turned and left the hall with Xiang Sheng.
After watching him step out of the hall, the Thousand Stars Hall Master narrowed his eyes and said, "Wei Qing, you stay."
