Chapter 138: Smile without saying anything, leave the rest to the opponent's imagination
Li Yanmo looked in the direction of the voice and saw a veiled woman in white standing on the country road.
She was plump and had a thin waist, and it was obvious that she ate well. The thin veil on her face was blown by the wind, outlining her beautiful face.
Li Yanmo clasped his hands together, thought for a moment, and then smiled, "I wonder which super sect this fellow Taoist is from?"
The woman raised her eyes slightly, "How do you know I'm from a super sect?"
“…”
Li Yanmo smiled but said nothing.
The woman narrowed her eyes slightly and snorted, "Your sect is quite prudent to actually send a disciple of your level of cultivation here."
Li Yanmo continued to smile without saying anything.
Seeing Li Yanmo acquiesced, the woman looked at the thatched hut of the Zhuge family and frowned slightly, "Your sect's intelligence is outdated, and the Zhuge family's inheritance has been cut off. They don't know where the tomb of the Fierce Emperor is. It's meaningless for you to spend more spirit stones on the Zhuge family."
Li Yanmo seemed to be thinking about something, with his mouth slightly opened, as if he wanted to refute something, but when the words reached his throat, he seemed to encounter some difficulties and turned into an awkward inquiry.
"I don't know what to call this fellow Taoist?"
The woman withdrew her gaze and replied calmly, "Feng Ling."
"Feng Daoyou, don't be so confident."
"Oh? What do you mean?"
“…”
Li Yanmo smiled but said nothing.
A disciple from a super sect came to Nanyang City on purpose and even came near the Zhuge family, but he kept saying that the Zhuge family knew nothing about him and was not surprised by the appearance of this "disciple of a super sect". What else could it be except that he had made some other discovery?
Feng Ling clasped his hands in front of him, and the nutrition bag shook.
"I see. You were the one who bought the mechanical horse. What did you find from the mechanical bull?"
Li Yanmo's fists tightened slightly, "Feng Daoyou, you are putting me in a difficult position. The tomb of Emperor Lie is related to the reputation of our sect..."
The Dayu Dynasty seemed to have acquiesced to the sects digging up the tomb of Emperor Dayu, but who would dare to bet that the Dayu Dynasty would not make a fuss about it? At least the super sects with sufficient foundation would not take that gamble.
The Tomb of the Fierce Emperor was described by the Gold and Stone Chamber of Commerce as a magnificent thing, which made the first-rate sects lose their minds, but the super sects that had been cheated by the Tomb of the Emperor several times would definitely not fall for it.
Feng Ling in front of him came from a super sect, and mentioned the tomb of the Fierce Emperor...
Li Yanmo decided to take a gamble on the Emperor Yu's bold moves.
As expected, when hearing the word fame, Feng Ling's expression did not change at all. He seemed calm, but the nutrition bag on his chest began to shake very honestly.
"Did you hear any rumors?"
Li Yanmo was silent for a few seconds and then his face was full of pain. "Longyang's good friend, Dayu is an undercover agent. He has castrated himself in order to practice magic skills..."
Li Yanmo didn't say who it was. He just used various key words according to his understanding of the Dayu Dynasty, while quietly observing Feng Ling's reaction.
When Feng Ling heard that Dayu was undercover, he nodded very realistically.
Apparently, one of Feng Ling's disciples was slandered by some Emperor Yu as being an undercover agent of Emperor Yu.
Li Yanmo tried to think along the lines of this keyword, but he didn't even know which super sects there were, so naturally he thought of the victim mentioned by Leng Ningshuang, the leader of the Cang Tian Jian Sect, who was said to be a brother by Emperor Yu.
"You've suffered a lot, but you don't have to take those rumors to heart," Feng Ling sighed, "Once we open the tomb of Emperor Lie, everything will be revealed."
Li Yanmo's eyes moved, but on the surface he showed hesitation and lack of confidence, "Feng Daoyou, this may not be pleasant to hear, but this matter is probably not that simple. The Great Yu Dynasty intends to use the Emperor's Mausoleum to spread false information and destroy the unity of the sect. After all, this Lie Emperor is still the Yu Emperor..."
Feng Ling shook his head. "It seems that your master didn't tell you too much. But that's right. Your cultivation is too low. There are some things that you really can't know."
Seeing that Feng Ling could actually improve the settings by himself, Li Yanmo was relieved. "Feng Daoyou, since it is not something I should know, then naturally I should not know it. The master has his own difficulties, and we disciples just need to share the pressure for the master."
Feng Ling was stunned, and his expression became much gentler. "No wonder your master sent you here. Well, just think of it as me talking to myself."
"That Lie Emperor was not removed from the list, but rebelled against Dayu. In order to ensure his comeback, he secretly contacted many super sects. In order to gain the support of the Taoist sect, he revealed a secret."
Feng Ling said slowly.
"He holds evidence that proves that successive Yu emperors fabricated and framed the super sect."
"He knew too much, and that's why he betrayed Dayu. He did show some evidence."
"So the Taoist sect secretly provided him with a lot of supplies, but unfortunately he was assassinated by the powerful Dayu before he could make a comeback. He used up all his strength to escape back to the mausoleum built in secret."
Li Yanmo took a breath of cold air.
Feng Ling thought that Li Yanmo was frightened by the shocking news, and immediately comforted him softly, "Don't worry, there is no Dayu monk here, and I have also set up a soundproof barrier, so no third person will hear it."
Li Yanmo finally let out a breath and smiled bitterly, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Feng. This is indeed not something I should know. Fellow Daoist Feng, to be honest, the mechanical bull does not have many clues pointing to the tomb of Emperor Lie. Now that I think about it... the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce dared to put the mechanical bull up for auction. I'm afraid they have already had a quarrel with the Bingmen."
"If I return empty-handed this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain myself to my master."
Hearing this, Feng Ling immediately felt sympathy for Li Yanmo.
One billion high-quality spirit stones is not a small number.
However, these ten billion high-quality spirit stones were spent on a useless mechanical magic weapon.
Even if we release a super sect, it will be difficult to explain.
"Don't worry. In fact, we have already obtained information about the location of the tomb of the Emperor Lie. We are fully confident that we can open the tomb of the Emperor Lie this time. That's why your fellow disciples didn't blame you."
As Feng Ling spoke, he turned his head and looked towards the corner not far away.
"My two fellow Taoists, since you are already here, why do you need to let your fellow disciples stand in front of you?"
“…”
"As expected of the Sword Saintess of the Cang Tian Sword Sect, it seems that the Cang Tian Sword Sect is determined to seize the Tomb of the Fierce Emperor."
Dao Hai and Leng Ning Shuang walked out shaking their heads.
Dao Hai is responsible for the styling, while Leng Ningshuang is responsible for the weird look.
"Or are you worried that the Huangtian Sword Sect will interfere and make it difficult for your Cangtian Sword Sect to raise its head in the battle between the Sword Sects?"
Feng Ling's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't care about Leng Ningshuang's sarcasm at all, but the nutrient bag on his chest very honestly reflected Feng Ling's true annoyed thoughts at the moment.
Now Feng Ling can basically be sure that Li Yanmo is the honest man being ordered around by the two men in front of him.
"Humph - we in the Cang Tian Sword Sect have always done things uprightly, unlike the two of you who are hiding.
