The three of them also looked at the masked man.
The masked man walked up to the three of them and asked directly, "Who is ordering you around?"
It turned out to be a male voice!!
All three of them were a little surprised.
After a few seconds of silence, Qi Jia said, "Senior, you may have arrested the wrong person. I'm afraid there's some misunderstanding..."
"Bang!!"
The brick wall next to Qi Jia suddenly made a loud noise!
Glancing sideways, I saw a circle of spider-web-like cracks appearing on the wall.
Tang Wen tried to kick this wall.
A full-strength kick could only produce a muffled sound.
The other party's cultivation level can be seen from this!
"Stop talking nonsense." The masked man spoke calmly, yet it brought a great sense of oppression to the three people. "I ask questions, you answer. If you continue to talk nonsense, you will die."
Inside the stone chamber, there was a moment of silence.
The three men stared at the masked man, their eyes filled with a mixture of fear and hostility.
"Senior..." Tang Wen suddenly spoke.
The masked man cast a sharp gaze at Tang Wen.
"...If you wanted to kill us, why would you wait until now?"
"Then try again?"
The masked man released a trace of power, pressing towards the three people. This power was not the aura of the Cangxia Gong that the three people were familiar with.
"We were merely curious and harbored no ill intentions. We didn't intend to offend you, Senior. Please forgive us!" Qi Jia said. "If we died here, it would be very troublesome for you, wouldn't it? How about you just let us go? We won't mention this matter again! It would be better for everyone... Besides, the three of us hold important positions within the sect. If we disappear for too long, I'm afraid it will become a big deal..."
The masked man stared at Qi Jia for a while, then looked at Tang Wen and Lu Lin.
"They thought exactly the same as I did!" Qi Jia said quickly.
"In my place, only the dumb and the dead can keep secrets. Which one do you want to be?"
"Then just do it!" Tang Wen said in a deep voice.
"Senior!" Lu Lin said, "I'm sure you know that the three of us haven't touched your core secrets at all! If you insist on taking action to vent your anger, please let these two go! They know nothing! After they get out, they will definitely keep their mouths shut!"
The masked man did not answer, but stared at Lu Lin.
For a moment, only three people were left in the stone chamber, constantly testing the masked man's words.
…
"Old Cheng, is it almost done?"
In a stone chamber with the same environment, three people were standing in front of a water mirror.
One of them was Cheng Yi!
"No rush, wait a little longer." Cheng Yi waved his hand without looking back, staring at the water mirror.
In the water mirror, it was Lu Lin and the other two! The voices in the stone chamber were also transmitted here at the same time.
"Aren't you afraid of forcing something to happen? Young people are hot-tempered. What if, out of frustration, they try to trigger their protective treasure by severing their own meridians? What if they self-destruct? Furthermore, what if you force your disciples to beg for mercy, or even betray you?"
"First, they haven't learned that technique yet, and second, I'm just being blind."
"I give in!"
The female cultivator held her head in her hands.
This female cultivator was actually the one Lu Lin wanted to find!
"I'm telling you, even though I was the one who brought them here, if anything goes wrong, you'll still be responsible!"
"Um."
"...As you wish."
The female cultivator folded her arms, seemingly giving up on trying to persuade Cheng Yi.
But in less than half a minute, the female cultivator reached out and patted the shoulder of another woman next to her, saying, "Xiao Ling'er, send the Qingshu over and have them sign it quickly."
"Jia Jia, do you know me? Do you really want me to go, Senior Sister Chengying?" Cheng Ling turned around and asked.
"You are wearing a mask like Ah Hui!" Chengying said.
“…I don’t have that kind of clothes.”
"I have it." Chengying said as he took out a masked nightgown. "It's definitely a bit big, so you can just wear it. When you get over there, don't say anything and just give the thing to Ah Hui."
After giving the clothes, Chengying took out a piece of light blue paper with a few lines of words written on it.
Cheng Ling awkwardly put on her nightgown and pulled up her mask, revealing only her eyes. Then, she took the paper from Cheng Ying's hand. Just as she was about to read what was written on it, Cheng Ying placed a semi-transparent eye mask over her head.
"Go quickly and come back quickly, don't expose yourself."
Cheng Ling said "oh" and walked towards the corridor.
Cheng Yi looked at the water mirror, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.
"My three disciples are indeed determined and intelligent people!"
"Your future achievements will definitely not be inferior to mine!"
"By the way, do you plan to take in an apprentice or something?" Cheng Yi asked casually without looking up.
"Master Xuan said that it would be best if my lineage ended here..."
Cheng Yi nodded slightly.
"...But the Sect Master praised me for my reliability and said I should cultivate more pillars of talent."
Cheng Yi glanced sideways, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
…
Cheng Ling silently came to the stone chamber where Lu Lin and the other two were, and silently handed the paper in her hand to Cheng Hui. Then, she quietly left the stone chamber without revealing any information.
Even Qi Jia did not recognize that the masked man who suddenly arrived was actually the senior sister in the sect who took good care of him!
Chenghui took the paper, glanced at it, and said to the three people: "In this case, you sign here. After signing, you can leave here safely."
