Chapter 306 Visitors from Yuxu Palace
Qingyun Sect, the Master's Hall.
On the main seat, a young man in a moon-white Taoist robe was sitting upright with a relaxed posture.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest, his eyes indifferently sweeping over the Qingyun Sect's senior leaders standing below.
Ling Xiaotian, the leader of Qingyun Sect, a powerful Jindan stage expert, could only stand respectfully aside at this moment. Even the elders behind him did not dare to breathe.
It’s because this young man comes from Yuxu Palace.
"That's the thing."
The young man took a sip of tea and said calmly, "My master is very interested in the genius who caused the ninth level of thunder tribulation a few days ago."
"After calculating, the location is near your Qingyun Sect."
"Master Ling, do you have any clues?"
Ling Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat.
Nine levels of thunder tribulation!
He exchanged glances with the elders, and a hint of horror flashed in each other's eyes.
The first person they thought of was the person who killed Zhou Zheng.
The person is still being held in their Qingyun Sect.
But can they say it?
It seemed that the other party was planning to bring the item back to Yuxu Palace, and it was obvious that he had received the attention of Yuxu Palace.
They have already offended people to death.
Handing the person over now would not only offend a future superpower, but might even bring down the wrath of Yuxu Palace.
Ling Xiaotian made a decision in an instant.
"Reporting to the envoy, we are truly unaware of this matter."
"That day's thunderstorm shook the heavens and earth. We sent people to investigate, but we searched the area within a hundred miles and found nothing."
"Such a genius must have deliberately concealed his whereabouts."
Upon hearing this, the young man hummed noncommittally, put down his teacup and stood up.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Qingyun Sect to take care of it."
"If you have any news, let me know immediately."
"Master doesn't want such a gem to be left untouched by dust."
"Yes Yes!"
"Don't worry, Your Excellency. Our Qingyun Sect will do its utmost to help Taixu Palace!"
Ling Xiaotian quickly assured.
The young man said no more. With a flash of his body, he turned into a stream of light and disappeared at the entrance of the hall.
It was not until the suffocating pressure completely dissipated that Ling Xiaotian slowly stood up with a gloomy expression.
"Damn it, Yuxu Palace is also eyeing us!"
An elder cursed under his breath, "What should the Sect Master do now?"
Ling Xiaotian's eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "What should we do?"
"What else can I do!"
"Move quickly!"
"Go and bring up those two prisoners!"
"Yes!"
"and many more!"
"Go call Zhou Peng and Mrs. Zhou from the Zhou family over and have them identify the man in person!"
The disciple's expression became a little strange when he heard this, but he still didn't dare to ask more questions. He lowered his head and responded, then quickly retreated.
Everyone in the hall knew about the scandal between Ling Xiaotian and Zhou Peng's mother. It had become an open secret within the sect.
Soon, two disheveled figures were dragged into the hall by the disciples.
"boom!"
Gu Hong and Zhao Xiruo were thrown to the ground.
Zhao Xiruo groaned, her body covered in blood, looking extremely miserable, but fortunately the Hunyuan Pearl was constantly repairing her injuries, so she was not in any serious trouble.
But Gu Hong was not so lucky.
He was already injured, and was tortured by the Qingyun Sect people. There was almost no good flesh on his body.
In order to force him to answer questions, these people used extremely cruel means, but what made him most frustrated was that he had no idea what was going on at all!
Ling Xiaotian's voice was icy: "Tell me, why did you attack the Zhou family, which is under the protection of my Qingyun Sect?"
Gu Hong raised his swollen eyelids: "I... don't know what you are talking about..."
"How dare you speak so harshly!"
Ling Xiaotian kicked him in the chest.
"Where did all the things in the Zhou family's treasury go?"
"Don't tell us you didn't take it!"
"We searched you and found nothing!"
"Where are you hiding?"
Gu Hong lay on the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Where is it hidden?
If only he knew!
He is innocent!
More unfair than Dou E!
At this moment, the disciple from before hurried in again to report: "Master Zhou... Madam Zhou and Master Zhou Peng have arrived."
Ling Xiaotian's face flashed with an unnatural look, but he quickly regained his dignity: "Let them in!"
Soon, a young man walked in, supported by a charming woman.
It was Zhou Peng and his mother.
"Peng'er, look!"
Ling Xiaotian pointed at Gu Hong lying on the ground and asked, "But this person stole your family's treasure trove?"
Zhou Peng looked at the bloody man on the ground.
He carefully identified Gu Hong's face, then looked at Zhao Xiruo who was also in a mess next to him.
After a moment, he frowned and shook his head.
"not him."
"what?"
Ling Xiaotian's smile froze on his face.
"Peng'er, are you sure?"
"Could it be that they beat me so hard that you didn't recognize me?"
"It can't be wrong!"
Zhou Peng's tone was very certain: "The old man who stole my family's treasure house doesn't look like this!"
Now, it was Ling Xiaotian's turn to be dumbfounded.
The entire hall fell into deathly silence in an instant.
The elders looked at each other, embarrassment written all over their faces.
After all this time... did we catch the wrong person?
"Haha...hahaha!"
Gu Hong on the ground suddenly burst into laughter: "Unfair!"
"I've been wronged by you!"
Ling Xiaotian's face turned pale.
He was so angry that he grabbed Gu Hong's hair and lifted his face up.
"What's your name?"
"Gu Hong!"
Gu Hong gritted his teeth and spat out two words.
"Gu Hong..."
Ling Xiaotian's eyes flickered, and he tried to save face by force, sneering, "Even if we recognized the wrong person, you are still responsible!"
"Since the other party is impersonating you, they must be related to you!"
"Tell me! Who is that man?"
"Why would he pretend to be you?"
Gu Hong was also stunned.
Impersonating yourself?
It has been more than 20 years since I left the secret realm of practicing Dharma. Who would impersonate me?
Are you still doing such a rubbish thing as killing the elders of other sects and robbing other people's treasure houses?
This style...why is it a bit...
Suddenly, a young figure flashed through his mind like lightning.
That little bastard who nearly killed him!
The corners of Gu Hong's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Could it be... it's him?"
"Who is he?"
Ling Xiaotian asked sternly.
Gu Hong's eyes flashed with hatred as he spoke word by word, "That man...is called Yun Chen!"
"I can't think of anyone else who would do that except him!"
But he didn't expect... Yun Chen was not dead.
Not only did he not die, he even dared to impersonate him and cheat people everywhere.
Yun Chen!
When this name came out of Gu Hong's mouth, Zhou Peng's body shook violently.
In Tianyuan Xuanfu, the young man who destroyed his Dantian with one finger?
The demon that he wanted to skin and tear apart in his dreams.
Zhou Peng's face turned ashen in an instant, and he clenched his fists tightly.
"It's actually him?"
Ling Xiaotian couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
Yun Chen!
Of course he remembered the name.
It was this little bastard who ruined Zhou Peng.
He was so busy looking for medical treatment for Zhou Peng that he had no time to pay attention to a young man.
Later, the affair between him and Madam Zhou became known to everyone, and then Elder Zhou was killed. With one major event after another pressing down on him, he had almost forgotten this name.
But now, all the clues are connected.
