Soon, Gongsun Zhen and others arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
They were all a little confused. What was Zhao Cangqiong discussing in the middle of the night?
Is something big happening again?
Gongsun Zhen, in particular, was a little panicked. Could something have happened to Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang?
It shouldn't be.
He sent people to guard them. If anything happened, it shouldn't be Zhao Cangqiong's people who came to inform them.
"What happened?"
"You don't know either?"
"I don't know. Won't you know when you meet him?"
Gongsun Zhen and others arrived at the City Lord's Mansion almost at the same time. After a brief exchange of words, they strode inside.
"Several seniors..."
Zhao Cangqiong came out and bowed.
"Zhao Cangqiong, what happened?"
Gongsun Zhen asked impatiently.
"It's a big deal... Seniors, please follow me."
Zhao Cangqiong didn't waste any words and turned into the reception room.
Gongsun Zhen and the others looked at each other and quickly followed.
"Why is he here?"
As soon as he entered the reception room, Gongsun Zhen saw Lu Hongyun and couldn't help but frown.
If you ask who he wants to kill the most, it must be Chen Xiao.
The second one is Lu Hongyun!
"Haha, I'm here to watch the fun. You guys can do whatever you want. Just ignore me and pretend I don't exist."
Lu Hongyun sat there without even lifting his butt.
“…”
After hearing what Lu Hongyun said, Gongsun Zhen's face became even uglier.
Come to watch the fun?
When he doesn't exist?
Is this human language?
"Seniors, please take a seat."
Zhao Cangqiong didn't give Gongsun Zhen any chance to lose his temper and sat down first.
"Just now, someone broke into the City Lord's Mansion at night and brought a box."
"Box? What box?"
Gongsun Zhen, who received the box, had the biggest reaction.
He is really a bit shadowed.
"That's it."
Zhao Cangqiong pointed at the box on the table and said lightly.
Everyone's eyes fell on the box. Gongsun Zhen strode forward and opened the box.
When he saw the bloody head in the box, his old face changed.
Another head!
Ji Wuji and others' eyelids twitched violently. They looked at their heads carefully and then looked at Zhao Cangqiong.
They didn't recognize this head.
"He is the Great Venerable Fierce Snake."
Zhao Cangqiong looked at them and spoke slowly.
"What?"
"Old Fiery Snake?"
Hearing what Zhao Cangqiong said, everyone was shocked and looked carefully again.
They couldn't believe it. Who killed the great leader of Shengtian Sect?
"There is also a letter inside. You seniors can take a look."
Zhao Cangqiong said again.
"Letter..."
Gongsun Zhen, who was closest to him, picked up the letter.
When Zhao Cangqiong saw him pick up the letter, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but soon disappeared.
Lu Hongyun also stared at Gongsun Zhen, wondering how he would react.
"This head belongs to the Great Venerable Fierce Snake of the Holy Heaven Sect..."
Gongsun Zhen looked at the words on the letter and began to read.
Although they already knew the identity, everyone still couldn't believe it when they read this.
"I'm from Sanjie Mountain, and I'm Chen Xiaozhi's senior brother..."
When Gongsun Zhen read this, the hand holding the letter trembled slightly.
The one who killed Great Venerable Fierce Snake was Chen Xiao’s senior brother?
How is that possible!
Chen Xiao’s senior brother has also come to Sifang City?
Why have I never seen it?
Ji Wuji and others also opened their eyes wide.
Chen Xiao is already strong enough. His senior brother killed the Great Venerable Fierce Snake. Isn’t he even stronger?
Zhao Cangqiong laughed secretly in his heart, wait... you will be even more panicked.
"Where is Chen Xiao's senior brother?"
Gongsun Zhen raised his head and looked at Zhao Cangqiong.
"I left, and I didn't see it either."
Zhao Cangqiong told the truth.
"When I came out, I only saw a back..."
“…”
When Gongsun Zhen heard Zhao Cangqiong say this, he looked back at the letter in his hand and began to read.
When he saw the words, 'Great Venerable Lieshe was instigated by Gongsun Zhen... But if he really does whatever he wants, I will kill him! Tell you, take care of yourself!', his hand shook violently, and the letter fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Ji Wuji was very surprised to see Gongsun Zhen's reaction.
What was said inside made Gongsun Zhen lose his composure.
He waved his hand, picked up the letter that had fallen on the ground, and began to read it.
Soon, he knew why Gongsun Zhen lost his composure.
If it were him, he wouldn't be able to remain calm either.
He glanced at Gongsun Zhen and saw that his old face was extremely gloomy and his body was shaking, not sure whether from anger or fear.
"hehe……"
Seeing Gongsun Zhen's reaction, Lu Hongyun couldn't help laughing out loud. It was worth it for him to stay up late and come here to watch the fun!
This expression is really wonderful.
“…”
Hearing Lu Hongyun's laughter, Gongsun Zhen's old face turned even darker and he clenched his fists.
Ji Wuji finished reading the letter. You could hear a pin drop in the living room, and no one spoke.
Zhao Cangqiong was not surprised by their reaction.
Seeing them like this, he felt quite relieved. He had just finished watching and felt the same way.
"Everyone...what do you think?"
Zhao Cangqiong took a sip of tea and asked slowly.
Normally, because he was the youngest and had the youngest seniority, even though he became the city lord, these old guys often did not give him face.
Now it's okay...are you all behaving yourself?
"Find him!"
Gongsun Zhen seemed to come to his senses and growled.
"Who did you find?"
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Gongsun Zhen and asked.
"We found Chen Xiao's senior brother. He...he killed the Great Venerable Fierce Snake and broke into the City Lord's Mansion at night. There must be a big conspiracy!"
Gongsun Zhen gritted his teeth.
“…”
Zhao Cangqiong was speechless. Even if you wanted to deal with Chen Xiao and his senior brother, you should find a better reason.
This reason... is too bad, right?
However, it can be seen that Gongsun Zhen was very panicked, otherwise he would not have said these words.
"Senior Gongsun, are you going to avenge Great Venerable Lie Snake?"
Lu Hongyun looked at Gongsun Zhen and asked while holding back a smile.
"fart!"
Gongsun Zhen was furious, but he also knew that the reason he just gave was totally untenable.
"Anyone can kill anyone who belongs to the Holy Heaven Sect. This is the attitude of everyone in the Heaven Outer Heaven... Why, he killed the Great Venerable Fierce Snake, but you want to find him? Isn't this revenge?"
Lu Hongyun said lightly.
"Old dog Gongsun, according to my guess, your strength should not be as good as that of the Great Venerable Fierce Snake, right? Senior Brother Chen Xiao can easily kill the Great Venerable Fierce Snake, so he can easily kill you... So, are you panicking now?"
“…”
Gongsun Zhen's expression changed, he was really panicked!
Although many powerful people came to Shanhai Tower, it is impossible for them to protect him all the time.
What if there is an oversight? Will his head... also be in the box?
“I heard that his senior brother is very strong, and Chen Xiao has a master’s treasure in his hand, which can kill the ninth-level immortal?”
Lu Hongyun said again.
"Some people should be thankful that they didn't push Chen Xiao too far, otherwise he would be dead now."
“…”
Hearing this, Gongsun Zhen was really a little scared. What if such a magic weapon was used, would he be able to escape?
"Why didn't Chen Xiao use such a magic weapon? Are there certain people who are not worthy of him using such a magic weapon?"
Lu Hongyun sneered again.
"Lu Hongyun!"
Gongsun Zhen roared.
"What's wrong? Do you think I'm afraid of you just because you're so loud?"
Lu Hongyun smiled contemptuously.
“Hehe, I thought I had provoked Great Venerable Fierce Snake to deal with Chen Xiao, but he died in the end… This Great Venerable Fierce Snake’s death was indeed a bit unfair.”
"Senior Gongsun, and all the seniors, let's sit down and talk."
After Zhao Cangqiong finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Hongyun again, signaling him not to provoke Gongsun Zhen anymore.
Lu Hongyun smiled, sat on the chair, crossed his legs, picked up the teacup and started drinking tea.
"The situation is just like this. The crisis of Shengtian Sect... has been resolved."
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Gongsun Zhen and others and said.
"As for the purpose of the Holy Heaven Sect, we already know it... Chen Xiao's senior brother also told us to pay more attention to it."
"Why doesn't he show up?"
Ji Wuji thought for a moment and said.
"Maybe it's inconvenient. He's hiding in the dark, and even Chen Xiao doesn't know about it."
Zhao Cangqiong said.
"No matter what, the biggest crisis right now has been resolved..."
"The people of Shengtian Sect have been killed, but some things have not been figured out yet."
Huai Tianlei said slowly.
"Including the death of Wu Qingming, as well as Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang..."
"The Great Venerable Fierce Snake is dead, so can we release Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang? You know their situation."
Gongsun Zhen said in a deep voice.
"This matter cannot be delayed any longer... Based on my understanding of them, they will definitely not join the Holy Heaven Sect."
"It's not like you can clear their suspicion just by saying that... It doesn't mean that just because the Great Venerable Fierce Snake is dead, it means they are not suspected."
Lu Hongyun spoke again.
“There is no direct relationship between the two.”
"Zhao Cangqiong, this is our Sifang City's business, why are there always outsiders pointing fingers here!"
Gongsun Zhen glared angrily.
"Lu Hongyun..."
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Lu Hongyun, feeling helpless.
"How about you go and take a rest?"
"No, no, you guys say, I'll just watch the fun and won't say anything anymore."
Lu Hongyun waved his hand and drank his tea leisurely.
"The threat from the Holy Heaven Sect has been eliminated, but the teleportation array has not been found yet. This must be found."
Ji Wuji said.
"As for Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang... we can ask them again when they are in better condition. We can't keep them locked up in the City Lord's Mansion forever."
"Um."
Zhao Cangqiong nodded. He didn't want to keep Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang locked up and take responsibility for it.
If these two people really died in the City Lord’s Mansion, it would be hard to explain.
"As for Wu Qingming's death... Qingyun Tower is also investigating. The chief elder of Qingyun Tower will be here soon. Let's leave it to them."
Ji Wuji said again.
"Qingyun Tower will not let this go now that Wu Qingming is dead."
"Not only Wu Qingming, but also Zhou Zhengyang..."
Huai Tianlei added.
"The affairs of the Tianqing Sect have nothing to do with us."
Zhao Cangqiong said immediately.
"And...Senior Gongsun, please consider Chen Xiao's matter carefully."
“…”
Gongsun Zhen's face changed. If he did nothing, wouldn't it mean that he was frightened by Chen Xiao's senior brother?
"Great Venerable Fierce Snake died miserably...his head was even chopped off."
Lu Hongyun said this quietly and stood up.
"Alright, alright, no need to chase me away. I'll go on my own... I'm done with the fun, I'm going back to sleep."
