4989. Chapter 4989 The Three Great Treasures of the Demon Sect 10
Yan Chengfeng said calmly: "Palace Master Qilian, don't worry, I'm not so narrow-minded. As an outsider, it is indeed easy to be suspected." Qi Lianjia nodded, then turned to Zhuo Yunao and said: "Yun'er, I From what the guards said, you seem to have been there too. "
Zhuo Yun'ao nodded and said: "Yes, Master." Qi Lianjiao asked: "What are you doing there?" Zhuo Yun'ao replied: "Just to confirm the safety of the treasure. When I passed by, the Tiangong Jade Return Pill Still there, I guess those people took action after I left." After a pause, he continued: "Master, I think there must be a traitor within our Holy Sect, and that traitor must be someone close to you. Otherwise, others will not be able to access the pass token." Qi Lianjie nodded and said, "What you said makes sense." As he spoke, a member of the Holy Sect walked up to Qi Lianjia and whispered in his ear. He whispered a few words. After listening, Qi Lianjiao said: "I have drawn the faces of the two fake envoys based on the descriptions of the guards. You use the portraits as a standard and immediately search inside the Holy Gate. If there is no check No one is allowed to go out before dawn. Otherwise, they will be killed." After a pause, he continued: "Yun'er, take all the guards and attendants around me for interrogation. If there is a traitor, you must find it for me. "As soon as his words fell, everyone present immediately took action.
More than ten minutes later, Leng Xuan and Qi San, who were sitting in Gao Xi's room, suddenly heard a burst of shouting coming from outside. Just when the two of them were surprised, they saw the door of the room being pushed open from the outside, and Gao Xi walked in slowly with a smile on his face. Leng Xuan stood up and said, "How are you, Mr. Gao?" Gao Xi smiled and said, "You guys are lucky." Qi San asked in confusion, "What do you mean?" Gao Xi replied, "Qi Lian just mowed everything around him. Everyone was arrested and we were about to interrogate them to see if there was a traitor inside. As a result, two of our guards wounded us and escaped."
Leng Xuan was slightly surprised and said: "Is there really a traitor?" Gao Xi nodded and said: "The two guards have been killed." At this point, he smiled mysteriously and said: "Do you know who did it?" Leng Xuan After thinking for a moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind. "Could it be Zhuo Yun'ao?" Gao Xi nodded and said, "Yes, it's him. Third brother told me before that when you went to steal the jade and return the elixir, Zhuo Yun'ao beat you to it. Although I don't know who he is. What was his purpose, but he must have killed the two traitors to pin the blame on them so that his whereabouts would not be discovered. "Leng Xuan asked, "Do you know the identities of the two traitors?" Gao Xi. He responded: "Their identities have been confirmed and they are from Jiuhua Palace. That's why I said, you are so lucky. We don't need to take action now."
Hearing this, Leng Xuan nodded slowly. As far as he knew, the power of Jiuhua Palace had already penetrated into various cultivating sects. However, what he didn't expect was that even evil forces had penetrated into Jiuhua Palace. It seemed that their ambitions were really quite big.
At this time, Qi San asked: "When can we leave?" Gao Xi shook his head and said: "Not yet. Although they found the two traitors, they have not yet found the person who stole the treasure. So, we have to wait for a while. I still can’t get out.”
When he finished speaking, he turned around and said, "Okay, you guys stay here patiently, and I'll go explore again." With that, he turned and walked out of the room. At this time, in the hall of the Holy Sect headquarters, Zhuo Yun'ao stood beside Qi Lianjie with his head bowed, and said apologetically: "Master, I'm sorry, those two traitors resisted, so I had to kill them." Qi Lianjia frowned He said: "Everyone is dead, so there is no point in talking about it. I believe that the accomplices of the two traitors have not escaped yet. You should quickly lead people to investigate and be sure to recover those three treasures."
Zhuo Yun nodded proudly and said, "Yes, I'll do it right away." After saying that, he walked quickly out of the hall. Not long after he left, Gao Xi came to the hall, cupped his hands and said: "Palace Master." Qi Lianjiao said calmly: "Elder Gao, do you have anything to do with me?" Gao Xi nodded and said: "Palace Master, since it has been confirmed They are from Jiuhua Palace, so what should we do next?" Qi Lian said in a deep voice: "Elder Gao, if you have anything to say, just say it. There is no need to be secretive." Gao Xi replied, "Jiuhua Palace. We have formed an alliance with my Holy Sect, but they secretly stole my Holy Sect's treasure. Do we want to continue to join forces with them? If this is spread, others will definitely say that our Holy Sect is afraid of Jiuhua Palace and dare not cooperate with them? For thousands of years, our Holy Sect has been known as the number one evil force. Is it possible that the Palace Master is willing to be suppressed by Jiuhua Palace?"
Qi Lianjie pondered for a moment and then said, "What suggestions does Elder Gao have?" Gao Xi said, "I mean to terminate the alliance and this operation immediately." Qi Lianjie shook his head and said, "No, this time It’s a good time to deal with Tenglong Palace, we can’t give up casually.” Gao Xi turned around and asked, “I wonder if the palace master has heard the rumors in the world of cultivation?”
Qi Lianjia asked: "What rumor?" Gao Xi said: "The palace owner of Jiuhua Palace is actually Li Xiuyi of Lingyun Palace." Qi Lianjia sneered: "This is just a rumor spread by Li Xiuyi's enemy. The purpose is In order to ruin his reputation, do you believe it?" Gao Xi said solemnly, "What if the rumor is true?" Qi Lianjiu frowned and said, "Do you have any evidence?" Gao Xi shook his head and said, "No, we can." Let’s speculate. Palace Master, who proposed the alliance plan this time?” Qi Lianjie replied: “Jiuhua Palace.”
Gao Xi nodded and continued: "I believe the palace master also knows the current situation of Xiu Zhen Dao. Today, Xiu Zhen Dao has been divided into two factions, one is headed by Lingyun Palace, and the other is headed by Tenglong Palace. Even if we join forces to defeat Tenglong You will also suffer a lot of losses. At that time, who do you think will be the real winner?" Qi Lianjiao narrowed his eyes and said, "That's right." . Once Tenglong Palace is defeated, the alliance led by Tenglong Palace will also collapse. If true, Li Xiuyi will be the leader of Xiu Zhen Dao after he unifies Xiu Zhen Dao. , just by secretly uniting with Jiuhua Palace, we can be easily eliminated. At that time, both the right path and the evil path will be under his control, and he will become the first true person in the history of cultivation. total ruler."
Qi Lian said in a deep voice: "These are just your guesses." Gao Xi said calmly: "If this doesn't happen, then that's it. But what if it's true? What should we do? Nine The fact that Hua Palace arranged for a traitor to be inside our Holy Sect is enough to illustrate their ambition. Palace Master, as the head of the Holy Palace, you must think twice."
