Chapter 501 Elder Yu
Yucheng.
Yu Guang arrived at a mansion as quickly as possible.
This mansion is the residence of Yu Chang, the third oldest son of the Yu family, and it is also where Yu Chang works.
Yu Chang is at the seventh level of the Saint Yuan Realm. He is more than 300 years old and serves as the elder of the area among the Holy Guards. He is responsible for all the public resource areas around Yucheng.
Of course, usually nothing would disturb his peaceful life.
At this time, Yu Changzheng was holding a wooden ladle in his hand, watering the spiritual flowers and spiritual grasses he had planted himself.
Suddenly, a person walked up in a hurry, making Yu Chang move his hands.
He turned his head to look at Yu Guang, who was looking hastily, and asked with a smile: "Yu Guang, what makes you so anxious?"
Yu Guang said with a heavy face: "Elder Yu, something happened over there in Bailing Forest. Five people with golden masks sneaked in. One of them stole all the Zhu Guo, and the other four were all killed on the spot. Their bodies were Still staying where you are.”
Yu Chang's face turned cold when he heard this, and he snorted: "Someone dares to steal spiritual objects in the public resource area under my jurisdiction! I would like to see who these people are!"
After saying that, Yu Chang angrily threw the wooden ladle into the water tank.
Not long after, Yu Chang and Yu Guang came outside Bailing Forest.
Yu Guang glanced and did not see Ji Xuan and Liu Yi. He frowned slightly, but did not ask on the spot. If he doesn't ask, maybe Elder Yu hasn't noticed that there is one less holy guard on duty...
"Why are there just the three of you? Where is that little girl from the Ji family?" Yu Chang finally found out and asked with some displeasure.
The three holy guards looked at each other, and then one of them said awkwardly: "Back to Elder Yu, Ji Xuan's fiancé is here, so she went home. She said...she will quit the holy guards starting today and will no longer be on duty."
Yu Chang's face darkened, and he snorted: "She really knows how to choose the right time! The women of the Ji family are just arrogant at home, but they dare to be so arrogant and wanton outside! I'll keep this in mind for you all. , something happened in Bailing Forest as soon as the son-in-law of the Ji family came! After the incident, the daughter and son-in-law of the Ji family left quickly! Did you all hear clearly? "
Yu Guang and others' expressions changed. What did Elder Yu mean by his words? Could it be that...if the origins of those golden masked people cannot be found out, the blame will be placed on Ji Xuan and Liu Yi?
Yu Guang and others did not dare to say anything.
Yu Chang shook his sleeves angrily and strode towards the forest.
Soon, four corpses appeared in front of everyone under the red fruit tree.
"Take off their masks for me." Yu Chang ordered.
Yu Guang and four others took the order, and each of them uncovered one.
"ah!"
The timid person blurted out an exclamation when he took off his mask.
The other three people also stared with wide eyes and gasped!
This was the first time they had seen such a terrifying face.
"What's all the fuss about..." Yu Chang was dissatisfied with the four people's reactions, but when he personally checked, the corners of his eyes twitched.
"Is it just to hide their identities that their faces were disfigured to this extent? If they are unfamiliar faces, there seems to be no need to disfigure their faces to this extent... Moreover, these scars on their faces are not It’s a new injury, probably caused many years ago.”
"Huh!"
"The aura remaining in these people's corpses is actually the power of the Holy Yuan!"
"They all have Saint Yuan level cultivation!"
The more he inspected, the more frightened Yu Chang became. His old face was full of solemnity.
"Although Zhu Guo is a rare spiritual object, five Saint Yuan Realm experts came to steal the Zhu Guo. Another person even attacked and killed four of his companions for the Zhu Guo. Do you think it's normal?"
Yu Chang narrowed his eyes and asked Yu Guang and others.
Yu Guang and others were stunned. Yes, although Zhu Guo is precious, as a Saint Yuan strongman, if you want it, you can easily exchange it or buy it. How can you come here to steal it?
The strangest thing is that one of them killed four Saint Yuan realm companions for a red fruit tree!
This makes no sense!
"Did anything else happen here that I don't know about?" Yu Chang looked at Yu Guang and others coldly and asked.
Yu Guang and others looked at each other. They were only responsible for guarding outside. Although according to the regulations, they had to enter the forest after a period of time to check the maturity of resources, Ji Xuan usually took care of these tasks... because she didn't like boring standing guard. On duty.
Yu Guang took a deep breath and knew that he could no longer protect Ji Xuan at this time. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to afford anything serious.
"Elder Yu, Ji Xuan is responsible for the inspection... We have been on duty outside and don't know the situation in the forest." Yu Guang said bravely.
Yu Chang stood up and roared: "In that case, are you still letting Ji Xuan go at this time?"
One person said in a trembling voice: "She... she is from the Ji family after all, we dare not offend her. Moreover, her fiancé is also from the Liu family... The three of us have no great backgrounds, so how can we dare to stop them from staying or leaving?" .”
Yu Chang laughed angrily and said, "If you don't dare to stop them from going or staying, can you bear the responsibility for this crime?"
Yu Guang's eyes flashed and he said in a trembling voice: "Elder Yu... how about we just bury these corpses, and the loss of those Zhu Guo will be deducted from our points? Let's just pretend that what happened here didn't happen. However, this way we don't have to bear the responsibility from above, nor do we have to offend the commanders behind these golden masks. These corpses are all Saint Yuan realm practitioners, and the forces behind them are probably not something we can afford to offend. Besides... ...Elder Yu, you are still the third old master of the Yu family, and Yu Cheng is right next to you. If you really offend someone who is too powerful, it will not be of any benefit to you or the Yu family..."
Yu Guang didn't know if his suggestion would make Yu Chang angry, but he really didn't want to take the blame, let alone be remembered by these golden masked men.
Yu Chang frowned and did not say anything immediately, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Suddenly, Yu Chang's eyes opened, he looked at Yu Guang with a cold look, and asked: "Yu Guang, do you have anything to do with these golden masked people? Otherwise, how could you try your best to persuade me to cover up this matter?" ?”
Yu Guang was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said with a pale face: "Elder Yu, there is no such thing as this! My subordinates are just thinking about Elder Yu and the Yu family. The elder is a person who loves leisure, and he definitely doesn't want to be disturbed by any troublesome things. Qing cultivators. And we joined the Holy Guard just because we were not reused in the family and did not get good resource allocation, so we just wanted to concentrate on cultivating in the public resource area. One less red fruit tree, to be honest, I don’t care in my heart!”
The other three people also knelt down and echoed: "Yes, Elder Yu! Once this matter is investigated, at least we will lose our status as holy guards, and at worst, we will be charged with dereliction of duty... I will be homeless. The background is that if we suffer this calamity, we will never be able to recover, so please have mercy on us, Elder Yu."
