Chapter 992 Returning to the Ancient City

"Yes, I did find some new clues this time, so I asked Hong Ying to call you here."

Sparrow said.

"After listening to your words this time, we quickly took it for the sake of it. More people spread around to investigate the situation, and it was more hidden. We really found some clues."

"How about not knowing the details?"

"Specifically, there is an ancient city a hundred miles to the west of my Tianshan peak. The young master was brought here from that place by Junior Brother Qingxuan. I must be clear about it."

Ye Tian nodded.

"And the additional manpower we sent this time found some traces in that place. There was an inn there, and there lived a white-faced scholar, who seemed to be the Daomeng of the Daomeng. The leader among them is a taciturn young man, nothing special, but this is also the first choice for an assassin. Nothing special is the biggest special."

When the leader was reading this piece of information, when Ye Tian heard the word scholar, the first thing he thought of was the scholar who was in trouble with him.

And like that so-called taciturn young man, he thought of Xuanli.

It's just that although both of them are involved with him, the involvement is not deep. In the inn, he also retreated in the room for a period of time before coming out, so the relationship between him and the scholar is actually no more than a pen and ink acquaintance.

And that Xuanli didn't even mention it, but he was just a companion who came in halfway, and he didn't have any impression of it being true.

"In order to let the young master better understand the target, my subordinates specially asked them to draw one by one."

Que Peck said so, and directly took out two scrolls from the storage space with his backhand. When Ye Tian opened it, he found that it was the scholar and Xuanli.

Seeing this portrait, Ye Tian instantly remembered the enthusiastic appearance of the scholar back then, as well as the coincidence with Xuanli and the others. Looking back now, it was really a little abnormal, but the subsequent actions dispelled Ye Tian's doubts. .

"I have had contact with these people before, but they separated soon after some incidents."

Ye Tian briefly talked about their situation.

Que Peck said as if looking at him calmly.

"The people sent out so far can only judge from some clues that these two people are members of the Daomeng, but they can't tell what they went to the ancient city and what they did. I just want you to take a look, after all, you will probably be more familiar with it from there."

Que Peck directly stated his purpose, they didn't expect that Ye Tian would have anything to do with the members of the Daomeng, but now they don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

"Does the head mean that I will be responsible for leading the team to the ancient city to check?"

Ye Tian asked.

"After all, the young master is now considered the elder of my Tianshan Mountain, and it is nothing to have the status of leading a team."

Bird pecked.

"It can be regarded as making the best use of everything. After all, the young master has stayed here for so long, I am afraid that if you continue to do it, it will rust."

Ye Tian laughed dryly at this unfunny joke, and then spoke slowly.

"Since I am the elder of Tianshan Peak now, I will naturally obey the order of the head of the sect."

"In this case, there is Mr. Lao."

Que Peck bowed his hands politely.

According to Ye Tian's straightforward temperament, he soon returned to the ancient city with the disciple who had returned to Tianshan Peak not long ago, for the sake of the two companions who met by chance.

However, the situation and mentality of returning to the ancient city for the second time are completely different from the previous first time. After all, the identities and purposes of the two came to be different.

This time the ancient city is much better than last time, at least it is normal, there is no crowd of people in black robes, and no one is shouting about the treasure of Tianjiao, it is like an ordinary market.

"Report to the elder, the residence of the scholar we checked earlier is the inn in front."

A disciple of Tianshan Mountain who was in charge of leading the way reported.

Ye Tian nodded to show that he understood. After all, I lived here for a few days.

There was no need for his disciples to lead the way, he quickly came to the inn by himself, and when he entered, he found that there was no one there, it was deserted, and the whole inn seemed to have been deserted for a long time.

Could it be that the scholar didn't return to the inn after parting with him? Ye Tian couldn't help thinking.

"Why did you conclude that the scholar and the assassin named Xuanli belonged to the Dao League?"

He couldn't help but turned his head and asked.

"Reporting to the elder, we have followed a very suspicious person for a long time before, we can basically conclude that that person is a certain big shot in the Daomeng, and even an elder who is good at secrets went to follow, and that scholar and Xuanli is the person that the big man saw earlier, and the three of them had a secret conversation in the same room for a long time, if they were ordinary people, they would think that they were related to the Daomeng."

That disciple honestly told all the things he knew at once, after all, Ye Tian's reputation in Tianshan Peak at this moment is even higher than that of Huoyun back then.

Although his record that day was bloody, he showed his own power. Many people were dissatisfied with him, but there were also some people who admired strength and believed that Ye Tian was right, even because of his own power. Proud to be such a powerful elder.

This disciple named Ye Tian leads the way belongs to the latter.

Ye Tian nodded after listening to all the information from his disciples.

He felt that there was something wrong with it, but he couldn't remember it, and he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Report to the elder that there are still some traces of fighting here, and there is a jade pendant left behind."

Suddenly, two people came out of which room for the first time, holding a jade pendant and handing it to Ye Tian.

The latter took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, and there was a word "Tao" written on it.

"There have been records in the sect that the token of Daomeng is a snow-white jade pendant, regardless of whether it is necessary or not, the style is the same as this one."

The disciple who followed Ye Tian said to Ye Tian.

"In this case, the owner of this inn must be a member of the Daomeng, so where is he now..."

Ye Tian lowered his head and thought about this question carefully. He thought that he had just left the cave, and then parted ways with Xuanli and the scholar to go to Tianshan Peak.

If both of them are members of Daomeng and have known each other from the very beginning, then they might also be acting for themselves along the way, so what is their purpose for doing this? Help yourself improve your cultivation? Release the mirage that has been besieged for a long time?

Ye Tian still couldn't figure it out.

"Is there something you are hiding from me?"

He suddenly sent a sound transmission to the mirage in the Sea of ​​Consciousness.

The latter, who should have been active all along, was dead silent at this moment, as if he had disappeared.

"If you don't speak again, I will directly refine you with glazed fire."

Ye Tian said coldly.

Since the other party is a murderous thing trapped in that seal, then what happened there must be related to him. It is impossible for the scholar and Xuanli to enter for no reason, there must be some kind of purpose in it, Ye Tian can't guess If it is transparent, then the only thing that is possible to know is the mirage.

"I'll give you three breaths, one...two..."

After Ye Tian counted to the second, a voice finally responded.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I just don't think it's necessary to tell you, it's just a trivial matter."

Mirage said slowly, not in a hurry.

"So, you actually know what the scholar and Xuanli did behind my back, but you just didn't tell me."

Ye Tian felt the feeling of being betrayed. After all, he and Mirage are in a cooperative relationship. If the other party is so unthinking of himself, Ye Tian feels that it is necessary to re-examine the relationship between them.

"Those two just took away some of my saliva, that's all the candles you just found when you went in. The candles that were lit were not ordinary candles, but made by my real body. My family is a Relying on the heaven and the earth, the so-called obfuscation technique is also the law of the heaven and the earth, and the real body can be transformed once in a lifetime, and then it can condense into a body like mine that can change at any time."

Mirage said.

"As for the real body that was transformed earlier, I made countless candles. I thought he was your companion before. I didn't pay attention to some of the ones I took away, but now I think it's a bit weird."

"Then what are your candles for?"

Ye Tian doesn't think that Daomeng is for collecting rare treasures.

"Actually speaking, those candles of mine are also very tasteless. If they encounter people with high cultivation bases, they will turn into incense and confuse them, making them drowsy. If they encounter some low cultivation bases, they will at most make them sleep Hallucinations, there is no other great use, so I don't care."

Mirage said that some rhetoric did not seem to be lying.

But Ye Tian felt that the matter was not that simple, but suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind when he thought about it.

"Since the Tianyin Pavilion will find out that Tu Bo has returned, will the Daomeng know this information through some clues? You said earlier that your candles will be confused by people with advanced cultivation. The real body of Tu Bo... Is the cultivation level high enough? If they want to strengthen Tu Bo’s real seal, it may be useful.”

Ye Tian boldly speculated.

"It's not impossible if you say so, but how did they guess your relationship with Tubo? After all, not everyone has such a sharp nose like me."

"Could it be an ancient spell? Maybe the scholar has the power to perceive these things. After all, I haven't seen him make a move yet, and it always gives people a familiar feeling."

Ye Tian frowned.

"The white-faced scholar you mentioned is not simple. At first, I thought it was your companion who didn't care. Now if he is a member of the Daomeng, it is impossible for him not to know my existence."

Mirage also echoed, and the purpose of the Daomeng seems to be coming out.
