Chapter 2257: Peace and Tranquility
Hearing this, Yuan Tao frowned even more tightly, stared at the deacon with cold eyes, and asked: "Since the surveillance stone has not failed, why is it concealed? If the murderer is caught, nothing will happen in the future."
The deacon raised his head and opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Yuan Tao shouted: "I order you to tell the whole story immediately!"
The deacon shuddered, obviously taken aback.
Then, he said: "The ones who robbed and killed those two monks... were the leaders and deputies of the top three-star monk group, the Twelve Immortals Group."
"The Twelve Xianchen Group..." Yuan Tao's eyes flickered, but his face was still gloomy.
The Xianchen Monk Group has a very high reputation in the ninth base camp where they are located.
It is not just a group of monks, but a small alliance composed of twenty-two groups of monks!
Among the twenty-two monks, except for the four newly formed monks who are still at four stars, the other eighteen monks are all above three stars!
Among them, the first Xianchen monk group has reached the level of a super two-star monk group.
The Super Two-Star Monk Group, no matter where it is placed, is considered an upper-level existence.
But under it, it also controls twenty-one groups of monks.
This kind of power cannot be said to be weak.
Because of this, the Xianchen Monk Group is very famous in the Ninth Base Camp, and everyone knows about it.
"Before they took action, they deliberately found me and asked me to turn a blind eye..." The deacon lowered his head and said, "I thought that those two leaders and deputies of the ordinary four-star cluster would die if they died. Yes, so..."
"So you just listened to them?" Yuan Tao asked with a cold tone.
The deacon did not dare to look at Yuan Tao and replied: "Yes."
Hearing this answer, Yuan Tao narrowed his eyes, looked at the deacon with anger in his eyes, and asked, "How much benefit did you receive from them?"
"No, no! Sir, I have not accepted their benefits at all!" The deacon raised his head and quickly denied, "I am not afraid of the Xianchen Monk Group itself, but...it is said that the leader of the Xianchen First Monk Group has nothing to do with us. I have a close relationship with a certain adult in the Ninth Department, so...I thought that it would be better to do less than to do more. Although those two are only the commanders and deputies of the 12th Xianchen Regiment, if I refuse, there is no guarantee that they will hold grudges..."
"You bastard!" Yuan Tao cursed angrily and said, "We act according to the rules, why should we be afraid of a group of monks?"
"We weren't directly involved in this matter, we just pretended we didn't see it..." the deacon explained nervously.
"You have helped conceal the crime!" Yuan Tao interrupted the deacon's explanation and said coldly, "If this matter spreads, it will be a devastating blow to the reputation of our Lingjing Pavilion! You have to know that the ninth We are not the only Lingjing Pavilion in the base camp!”
The deacon raised his head to look at Yuan Tao and summoned up the courage to ask: "Sir, so I feel that if I don't do it, I won't stop. I might as well just ask most of the people to take action and kill that damn Fang Yu! In this way, once and for all, all will be done." No worries, I really don’t understand why you would..."
"Please take action from most of the people? Do you think this matter is not big enough?" Yuan Tao's face was cold and he shouted angrily, "Why do you think I decided to settle the matter?"
"Anyone can be robbed and killed, but it must not happen in the trading area, let alone the Lingjing Pavilion! You don't understand this!? How can you be a deacon!?"
"If this matter is reported to the majority, yes, they may deal with that Fang Yu, but what about us? We can't escape punishment either! If the safety of the Lingjing Pavilion cannot be guaranteed, who will dare to exchange for the Lingjing in the future!? "
Yuan Tao became angrier as he spoke, his eyes became red and his breathing became rapid.
Rarely had he been so angry.
But this time, it was really unbearable.
His most trusted subordinate made such a stupid mistake and almost created a big trap for him!
This made him feel hard to calm down.
There are a total of fifteen trading areas in the ninth base camp.
The Lingjing Pavilion he is in charge of is just one of them.
As an institution that distributes spiritual crystals, the most important thing for Lingjing Pavilion is stability.
If something like this happened today, it would be a huge scandal for any Lingjing Pavilion.
If the commotion continues, Yuan Tao's position will not be guaranteed!
This is why he decided to settle the matter.
This matter cannot continue to ferment and must be restricted to the trading area!
The deacon, by this time, was so frightened that he was shaking all over.
At first, he didn't think it was a big deal at all, and the commanders and deputies of the 12th Xianchen Regiment also said they would clean up the corpses.
As a result, the body was not cleaned up and a small section was left.
The smell of burning mixed with the smell of blood filled the backyard, quickly attracting attention.
But even to this point, it’s not a big deal.
It can be explained by various reasons.
However... I met Fang Yu!
The deacon never dreamed that the leader and deputy of the two ordinary four-star monks would have such a powerful companion as Fang Yu!
But in fact, he should have guessed... How can ordinary four-star monks get so many merit points to exchange for spiritual crystals?
Anyway, looking back now...it was all a mistake.
One wrong step, one wrong step!
But now, hearing Yuan Tao's angry words...he only felt regret.
He knew that even if this incident could be handled properly, he would eventually be severely punished!
"Pavilion, Pavilion Master... What should we do now?" The deacon looked pale and asked Yuan Tao.
Yuan Tao took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and said: "Use some means to hand over the real murderer."
"Hand over the commander and deputy of the 12th Group of Xianchen, but in this way..." The deacon's face changed and said.
"The dead can't speak. With Fang Yu's temper, he will definitely kill them." Yuan Tao said in a deep voice, "In this way, the grudge between the Xianchen Monks Group and Fang Yu has nothing to do with us."
"Understood..." The deacon lowered his head and replied.
...
After Fang Yu inspected the remains on the first floor, he released his spiritual sense to observe every corner of the Lingjing Pavilion.
According to the deacon's previous statement, there should be surveillance stones in the Lingjing Pavilion.
But now, the existence of these surveillance stones is not found, and it seems that they have been dismantled.
Fang Yu slowly walked back to the third floor of the Lingjing Pavilion.
During this process, he was still covering the entire trading area with his spiritual sense.
The investigation is still continuing.
Judging from the situation of the investigation, it is not ideal, and no clues have been found yet.
Fang Yu returned to the third floor and sat down on a sofa.
There were only a few minutes left before the one-hour deadline.
But Fang Yu knew that Lingjing Pavilion must have a way to find the murderer.
But if the murderer is not found by the deadline... he will overturn this Lingjing Pavilion to avenge Yun Ning and his deputy.
Time passed slowly.
The one-hour deadline is about to come.
"Tatttatt..."
At this moment, a guard team quickly ran back to Lingjing Pavilion and quickly went upstairs.
