Chapter 1876: Using Stasis to Control Motion
Duoduo, who has completed her mission, has returned to Yaowang Valley, and she is asking for credit from Lianyi:
"Master, Duoduo has abolished the martial arts of the killers in Hongyan Tower and swallowed up the life force of that building owner. Unexpectedly, that building owner still has some skills. The skills he practiced actually have the effect of keeping his appearance. When his life force is exhausted, he will Revealed."
Duoduo shook her leaves and said.
Lianyi was sipping tea under the pear tree. She had been living a leisurely life recently. The troublemaker Mu Qingfeng was gone, and the monster Ji Shuxian was gone too. It was rare for her to be alone and relaxed, and she also released the whirlwind in the space to accompany her.
As soon as Tornado appeared in Yaowang Valley, he became the favorite of Yaowang Valley. Wherever he went, he was chased, fed and petted by the people in the valley. Tornado was so annoyed that he stopped patrolling his territory in the valley and only clung to Ripple. , currently enjoying the sun with her.
After listening to Duoduo's words, he wagged his tail and asked:
"Duoduo, don't you find anything else?"
Duoduo shook the flower plate and said:
"Of course, I have taken back all the ill-gotten gains from Hongyan Tower. Even if the owner doesn't see a doctor in the future, it will be enough for the operation of Yaowang Valley for a hundred years. Moreover, I also found a murder agent in the secret room of the owner. News about Mu Qingfeng’s people.”
After Duoduo finished speaking, she took out a paper notebook from her body and handed it to Ripple, who took it and read it carefully.
What Duoduo got back was indeed Hongyanlou's account book, which recorded the contents of all the tasks they took on, including who paid how much money and who they wanted to kill.
Moreover, Hongyan Tower also divided the tasks into levels. A famous knight like Mu Qingfeng was classified as a first-class task, and the killers sent out would be more powerful.
Lianyi was looking through the records of the mission to kill Mu Qingfeng. It was mentioned above that a woman in her forties from Piaomiao Palace sent the killing mission. She gave Hongyanlou 5,000 taels of silver and promised that if Hongyanlou could get it, Mu Qingfeng's belongings will be returned with another thousand taels of silver. The other party is very generous.
After reading it, Ripple closed the account book and said with a smile:
"Duoduo, you did a good job this time, and the account book you brought back just confirmed my suspicion.
Someone in the Piaomiao Palace knew the information that Mu Qingfeng helped me find out. In order to prevent the relevant information from being leaked, they hired someone to silence them. Unfortunately, their reaction was too big, which made it more likely to arouse suspicion. "
Xuanfeng already had a general understanding of Ripple's mission this time, so he narrowed his cat eyes and said:
"Master, I don't think they can kill Mu Qingfeng. I guess you will be targeted next. Mu Qingfeng was hunted all the way to Yaowang Valley. The other party will definitely receive the news."
Lianyi smiled and stroked Xuanfeng and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter, give them some time to react, and we can just calm down. Anyway, my current character is a sickly Valley Master who is physically weak and cannot easily leave Yaowang Valley."
Tianshan Piaomiao Palace
In a gorgeous courtyard, a middle-aged woman with an ordinary face was telling the beautiful girl in front of her:
"Young Palace Master, the murderer of the Hongyan Tower has not been found so far. It is estimated that our list has not been completed.
In addition, Mu Qingfeng stayed in Yaowang Valley for nearly three months. After recovering from his injuries, he left Yaowang Valley and returned to Jiangnan. The old slave is not sure who he gave the news from Bai Xiaosheng."
The gorgeous girl at the top was wearing a snow-white flowing sand skirt, with just a red jade hairpin on her head. She looked extremely cold and luxurious. She frowned and said:
"Aunt Wen, do you suspect that Mu Qingfeng gave the information he found to the owner of Yaowang Valley?"
"The possibility is very high."
Nuan Nuan replied in a deep voice.
The girl frowned and said:
"Aunt Wen, who is the current owner of Yaowang Valley?"
"I have some information about Yaowang Valley that I have collected here. Please take a look at it, Young Palace Master."
Nuan Nuan took out a stack of paper from his sleeve pocket and handed it to the gorgeous girl with respectful hands.
The girl took the stack of paper and read it carefully. However, she was young after all, so after reading the above content, she looked a little bad. She put the paper on the table aside and then said:
"Aunt Wen, what do you think?" Wen Nuan raised his eyes and glanced at the face of the young palace master, then lowered his eyes and said:
"Young Palace Master, the life experience of this Valley Master needs to be verified, but if it is really her who is checking the news about Yupei, then there is a high possibility that she is from the Piaomiao Palace."
"Shut up!"
The beautiful girl's beautiful eyes sternly stopped the woman's unsaid words.
Wen Nuan immediately lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The pretty girl seemed to have noticed her gaffe, and softened her expression before saying softly:
"Aunt Wen, it's my fault that I didn't control my temper just now. But as you know, there are some things you shouldn't say randomly."
"The old slave knows."
Nuan Nuan only replied with four words and stopped talking.
The pretty girl looked at the unsightly piece of paper in her hand, and finally said:
"Aunt Wen, what you just said is just a guess. You still need to verify it carefully. If Shan Lianyi is really related to Piaomiao Palace, I don't mind having one more little sister."
Nuan Nuan immediately blessed him and said:
"Old slave understands, let's go and check the authenticity of the news."
"You go ahead, I will tell mother and give you some extra banknotes to use to find out the information."
"Yes, the old slave has retired."
After Nuan Nuan finished speaking, he exited the yard.
After Nuan Nuan left, the beautiful girl leaned back weakly on the chair. After sitting for a long time, she took her personal maid to see her mother, the current mistress of the Piaomiao Palace.
The current Valley Master of Piaomiao Palace is named Piaomiao Qingxue. She is also reading the news about the destruction of Hongyan Tower. Although this matter has nothing to do with Piaomiao Palace, she has to pay attention to the major events in the martial arts world at all times, so as not to affect Piaomiao Palace one day.
"Zhihui, why are you here at this time?"
Piaomiao Qingxue put down what she was reading and asked with a smile when she saw her daughter coming.
"My daughter knows that my mother is working hard, so I prepared a bowl of stewed bird's nest for my mother. You can eat it and then you can get busy."
Piaomiao Zhihui gave the woman a bright smile and explained.
Piaomiao Qingxue was very pleased. She smiled and walked out from behind the desk, sat on the soft couch beside her, took the bowl of bird's nest handed over by her daughter, and slowly ate it.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Piaomiao Qingxue and Piaomiao Zhihui are cut from the same mold, and even their personalities are very similar. Piaomiao Qingxue also dotes on her only daughter, so everyone in Piaomiao Palace calls Piaomiao Zhihui the young palace master, and Piaomiao Qingxue has never corrected her.
After Piaomiao Qingxue finished using the bird's nest, she saw that her daughter had no intention of leaving, so she asked with a smile:
"Zhihui, do you have something to ask your mother?"
Piaomiao Zhihui nodded and glanced at the maidservant in the study. Her meaning was very clear, she wanted to talk to her mother in private.
Piaomiao Qingxue waved her hand to let the two maidservants go out, then turned around and said:
"Tell me, what's the matter? Why are you so mysterious?"
"Mother, the direct heir of Piaomiao Palace seems to be still alive."
After hearing her daughter's words, Piaomiao Qingxue's smile froze on her face, and then she said coldly:
"Zhihui, don't talk nonsense, you are the direct heir of Piaomiao Palace." (End of this chapter)
