Chapter 9

/Banxia Novel Exclusive/

*

Sikong Zhaixing is puzzled by why Chongming has been staying in one place all the time, and he is scratching his head and wants Chongming to leave.

As for how he got into trouble at the hands of Chongming, no one knows until now—not even Lu Xiaofeng.

When he first told Wuqing and others about the incident, Sikong Zhaixing used a clever explanation to get around it, and no one discovered the fact that he got into trouble.

But for Sikong Zhaixing, as long as he does not realize Chongming's wish of being ranked second, his secret will still be in Chongming's hands, and there is a risk of it being leaked.

It is said that this person sells information to others for real money, but why is he so vague

about it? Who knows what Chongming wants?

Sikong Zhaixing wondered, but from another perspective, this is Chongming's way of temporarily retaining him to help him become famous. What Chongming wants doesn't seem to matter.

But what Sikong Zhaixing is most unwilling to accept is that he took the initiative to ask to stay with Chongming.

He also concealed the real reason why he asked to stay with Chongming from Lu Xiaofeng, so that he couldn't say anything.

"You hide here, how can you become famous?" Sikong Zhaixing advised, "You have to let people see you."

In fact, he was just bored and didn't want to stay in this sad place that always reminded him of his stupidity.

However, the logic is correct.

It is too early for the eldest disciple to leave. "Wanwu Building" is Chongming himself. There is no such thing as a base camp. It doesn't matter where he goes. There are still many places to show his skills in the future to improve his impression points as a disciple.

But Sikong Zhaixing persuaded him to leave. Doesn't it seem that Chongming is easy

to persuade? "You are really troublesome." The rebellious and twisted eldest senior brother said coldly, "If you have this leisure, you might as well think about how to buy your secret and shut my mouth. Lu Xiaofeng seems to have doubts about your motives for staying with me . Do you want me to clear his doubts for him?"

Sikong Zhaixing clenched his fists. At this moment, let alone satisfying any wishes, he just wanted to punch Chongming and physically shut his mouth.

He twisted his body and walked away.

It's strange to say that Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng have lived here for a while, and no one except them has come to visit.

Wanwu Building has such excellent intelligence gathering capabilities, why don't they see any capable generals of Chongming?

Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing realized later that Chongming seemed too lonely as the owner of Wanwu Building.

"Maybe he doesn't trust you and me." Sikong Zhaixing said with a sour face, "Who knows what he does in the study all day."

Although so, it is indeed strange that no subordinates are seen. Maybe this house is not the base camp of Wanwu Building at all.

Lu Xiaofeng was thoughtful.

Yaoyue met Wuqing Xianlu with Jin Jiuling and met face to face.

Wuqing was confused at first, but when he saw Jin Jiuling with a gloomy face, he remembered what Chongming had said, and his heart sank.

Yaoyue must have come to settle accounts with Jin Jiuling.

But Wuqing didn't expect Yaoyue to come so quickly. When did she receive the news from Wanwu Tower?

Palace Master Yaoyue sat in a sedan chair carried by a maid, her light veil fluttering, her figure looming, and she raised her chin slightly, staring at Wuqing and others with cold eyes.

The atmosphere was stagnant, and even at a distance, Wuqing could feel the oppression brought by Yaoyue's cold aura.

However, these days, he has discovered that there are many deep secrets behind Jin Jiuling. If Jin Jiuling is handed over to Yaoyue, those secrets will be buried.

"Palace Master Yaoyue." Wuqing took the initiative to greet Yaoyue and explained his thoughts, "Please spare his life. I need him to investigate some old cases."

Yaoyue said coldly, "He stole my things, and I can't take him away. You didn't tell me that at the beginning."

Wuqing said, "I didn't know Jin Jiuling was such a villain at first."

Jin Jiuling gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but no one paid attention to him.

Palace Master Yaoyue in the sedan chair didn't say anything, and the atmosphere became more tense. The female disciples looked cold, and there was a trace of fear of the palace master.

Wuqing looked at the whole scene and realized the depth of Yaoyue's majesty.

Yaoyue was silent for a long time and asked, "I heard that you went to Dazhi Datong to ask for information, and they told you Jin Jiuling's identity."

Wuqing shook his head and said, "Dazhi Datong is not doing business recently. Master Guisun directed us to meet the owner of Wanwu Tower."

Jin Jiuling was furious: What the hell! It was obviously his money that he bought it!

If Lu Xiaofeng hadn't appeared to disrupt the situation and said that Sikong Zhaixing was missing, he would have successfully fooled Wuqing into changing the way to investigate the case!

"You, have you met the owner of Wanwu Tower?" Yaoyue's voice was still calm and cold, but the gaze that was looming behind the veil was suddenly filled with chillness.

Wuqing thought for a moment and said, "Yes. He - refused to do business with me, but there were many hints in his words, which confirmed my opinion. Palace Master Yaoyue, have you ever done business with Wanwulou? He said he sold the news of the thief Xiuhua."

Although he couldn't see Palace Master Yaoyue's expression, Wuqing felt that she seemed even more unhappy. Specifically, the cold air around was getting worse, and the expression of the maids carrying the sedan chair was even more solemn.

What did Wanwulou do in this business ? Wuqing couldn't

help but think.

"That's right." Yaoyue said coldly, "You met him. What kind of person is that guy?"

From her tone, it seemed that she was very disgusted with Zhongming, whom she had never met before. Wuqing was confused and answered truthfully, "Looks like he's in his early twenties."

Yaoyue: "..."

The focus of her wanting to know was not on age.

Since he is in his early twenties, how can he train subordinates who can freely enter and leave Yihua Palace without being discovered ? Yao

Yue was irritated.

Wanwulou - in fact, she only knew about the existence of this organization in the past year. Before that, she knew nothing about it.

The palace rules of Yihua Palace are not to deal with men, and they also disdain to get involved in the turmoil of the martial arts world, but they will still do what they should do. "Wanwulou" is too hidden, even if they know their existence, Yihua Palace still knows nothing about it.

No outsiders have ever set foot in Yihua Palace, and "Wanwulou" entered and exited as if they were in an uninhabited place, which seriously challenged her dignity.

"Leave Jin Jiuling to me." Yaoyue said in a cold tone, with a bit of unquestionable firmness, "I have everything he has done here, you can take this information and investigate it yourself."

Sometimes Yaoyue is not an unreasonable person, so she is too lazy to have a meaningless fight with Wuqing. But Jin Jiuling and "Wanwulou" are guys who don't take Yihua Palace seriously, and they must not be let go.

Wuqing felt a little subtle from Yaoyue's attitude. Yaoyue seemed to hate Wanwulou, but she recognized the information provided by Wanwulou.

"Wuqing! I must know more than Wanwulou!" Jin Jiuling panicked and shouted urgently, "There must be something they haven't found out! You can't hand me over!"

Yaoyue's vengeful nature is well known to everyone in the world. The fate of falling into Yaoyue's hands is almost predictable. He will definitely be tortured and die miserably. Jin Jiuling was completely panicked.

He didn't want to die.

Before Wuqing could respond, Yaoyue in the sedan became angry.

A stream of energy shot out from the sedan, and Jin Jiuling screamed. Wuqing looked and saw a bright red palm print on Jin Jiuling's face, which swelled up in an instant, and he could no longer speak.

Jin Jiuling: "Wuwuwuwuwu!!!"

It turned out that Yaoyue slapped Jin Jiuling in the air.

A sneer came from the sedan chair, and the light veil fluttered, revealing the contempt on the face of Palace Master Yaoyue.

The atmosphere was tense, but Yaoyue remained silent, looking down at Wuqing and waiting for his response.

Wuqing weighed the pros and cons and agreed.

"Young Master!"

The four boys were puzzled, but Wuqing understood that Yaoyue was determined to win, and would rather give up Jin Jiuling than start a meaningless dispute.

And he also wanted to see how detailed the information provided by Wanwu Tower was.

Jin Jiuling: "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu!!!"

Yaoyue was very satisfied and sent someone to pass on the news from Wanwu Tower. The silver sword boy pushed Jin Jiuling forward. The two sides handed over the person and the goods.

She asked Wuqing in the sedan chair: "What's the name of the boy from Wanwu Tower?"

Wuqing looked at the thick stack of papers in the hands of the Yihua Palace disciple, his brows were already wrinkled, he paused and replied: "Chongming. The Chongming of Canghai."

Yaoyue recited the name silently and remembered it.

She wanted to see what kind of capable person the owner of Wanwu Tower was.

The two sides exchanged quickly, and Jin Jiuling, with half of his cheek swollen and red, was very unwilling to be restrained by the female disciple of Yihua Palace.

Jin Jiuling, who had been waiting for someone to pick him up, was stunned: Damn Bat Master, where are you!! Where did you go!!!

Jin Jiuling was in a panic. He could still comfort himself by saying that Bat Master would send someone to rescue him sooner or later, but now that he was in Yaoyue's hands, it was obviously even less likely that he would be rescued from Yihua Palace.

"Wu, Qing!" Jin Jiuling shouted incoherently, "Xiao, you idiot——"

At this time, Jin Jiuling regretted not telling Wuqing about Bat Master in the beginning to bargain. He should have known how selfish and indifferent Bat Master was, so that he couldn't say a clear word after being slapped hard by Yaoyue from a distance, and his situation became even more embarrassing. Wuqing

stared at him and asked lightly: "Do you have anything to say?"

Jin Jiuling nodded like a garlic, his eyes full of desire.

Yaoyue interrupted forcefully: "Shut up."

Wuqing looked at Jin Jiuling and calmly looked away.

Jin Jiuling screamed and called out the name of the Bat Prince, but the pronunciation was very funny.

"Bian Fu Gong Ju Wu Wu Wu Wu Wu--!!"

The Yihua Palace disciples quickly blocked his mouth.

Yaoyue thought Wuqing would make another request, but to her surprise, the captain with a cold face below did not express any opinions.

The two sides had no old things to reconcile and no words to talk about. Yaoyue didn't want her disciples to deal with men, so she quickly led her disciples away and parted ways with Wuqing.

Jin Jiuling's screams could be heard from a long distance, and a Yihua Palace disciple couldn't help but slashed him with a palm knife.

Wuqing watched them leave and looked down at the intelligence in his hand.
