Chapter 3026: Killing the donkey

Liu Hao's scheming is truly unfathomable, far more terrifying than I imagined.

The death of his father Liu Xiangdong brought him to his limit. Everyone present saw that Liu Hao was holding the head of Elder Xuanwu in his hands.

The first time he went out on official business, he killed Elder Xuanwu. In the future, Liu Hao's name will quickly spread in the special investigation team. If he works in the special investigation team, his promotion speed will be as fast as flying on a plane, not to mention that he has an uncle like Minister Xiao.

Killing Elder Xuanwu was enough of a merit for Minister Xiao to promote him.

At this time, we all looked at Liu Hao without saying anything, and were too lazy to argue with him.

However, Liu Hao didn't want to let us go so easily. He turned around and looked at us, then continued, "Uncle, Angkor Wu and his men are the ones who really deserve credit. At the beginning, the people from Yiguandao were absorbing the energy of Jiuzhou Ding. Most of the energy of Jiuzhou Ding was swallowed up. They also rescued the tiger python controlled by Yiguandao, and even the black talismans that absorbed the energy of Jiuzhou Ding were snatched away by them. Those black talismans contain so much powerful energy from Jiuzhou Ding. If they fall into the hands of Yiguandao, it will be terrible. Maybe they can even train many powerful sword slaves."

The thing I was most worried about finally happened.

We didn't refute what Liu Hao said before, and we tacitly agreed that he killed Elder Xuanwu. We were worried that he would tell others that we had black talismans on us, but this guy sold us out in the end.

After all, when we snatched those black talismans, there were only a few of us present, including Liu Hao.

As long as he doesn't say anything, no one will know about these black talismans.

It seems that Liu Hao did not remember our kindness and has always been resentful towards us.

The feeling of having your flesh cut by a soft knife makes one feel so depressed that they want to vomit blood.

As soon as these words came out, our faces changed. Kasan immediately glared at Liu Hao and said, "Liu Hao, don't push your luck!"

Liu Hao immediately pretended to be innocent and said, "Brother Kasang, is there anything wrong with what I said? It was your contribution that stopped Yi Guan Dao from stealing the power of Jiuzhou Ding. I was praising you to Minister Xiao."

Minister Xiao was a sharp man. He immediately understood the key question from Liu Hao's mouth, and then looked at us: "Wu Jie, where are those black talismans? You don't want to keep them for yourself? So many people fought for this Jiuzhou Ding, and some even sacrificed their lives for it."

At this time, I looked at Tang Shangning for help. He had promised before that all the good stuff we got from this mission would be ours.

But with so many people watching, and Minister Xiao and Jin Xingyuan also present, Tang Shangning certainly couldn't keep quiet.

When I looked at Tang Shangning, he didn't look at me. He looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. It seemed as if he was saying, "You handle this matter yourself."

There are so many people watching, seventy or eighty people from the special task force, as well as masters from various major sects, are all here, and they have all heard what Liu Hao said. Those black talismans are on us, and if I don't take them out, I will definitely incur public anger.

Liu Hao did this on purpose, saying it in front of so many people, leaving us no room for easing the situation.

I didn't expect this guy to be so insidious. Compared with him, Liu Xiangdong is simply far behind.

But I reacted quickly, took out the black talismans from my body, and walked towards Tang Shangning.

"Minister Tang, we have completed the task you assigned to us. Not only did we save the tiger python, but we also snatched these black talismans from the thieves of Yiguandao. I was immersed in the grief of Director Liu's sacrifice and couldn't extricate myself. I didn't have the chance to take out these black talismans. Now those black talismans are here. Please check them, Minister Tang." I handed the black talismans to Tang Shangning respectfully.

Tang Shangning reacted quickly as well. He immediately took the black talismans from my hands and nodded. "Xiao Jie, you have done a great job this time. These black talismans have absorbed most of the energy of the Jiuzhou Ding. Our special dispatch team should study it and see if we can put the energy of these black talismans back into the Jiuzhou Ding."

When I said these words, I turned around and looked at Liu Hao with a murderous look in my eyes.

Because of the talismans I gave to Tang Shangning, I kept eight, just enough for each of us.

I kept these talismans in advance and placed them in the Dragon-Tiger Mirror, because I was worried that something like this might happen, so I wanted to be prepared in advance.

I didn't expect that Liu Hao really betrayed us.

Liu Hao made eye contact with me, then quickly turned his head away without saying anything else.

This bastard, if he says one more word, I guarantee he won’t see the sun tomorrow. On the way back, I will let Kasan kill him.

Although Liu Hao didn't say anything, Jin Xingyuan on the side sneered and said, "Wu Jie, you are a cunning kid. You didn't leave a few black talismans on your body, did you?"

"I didn't keep a single one. If you don't believe me, you can come and search." I looked at Jin Xingyuan.

Jin Xingyuan glanced at the two special investigation team members beside him and waved his hand: "You two go over and search."

As they spoke, the two members of the special task force walked towards me.

Without waiting for the two men to get close to me, the sloppy Taoist priest flashed in front of me and shouted angrily, "What the hell do you mean?! We came here to work for your special dispatch team for Wu Jie's sake. If it weren't for us, the energy on the Jiuzhou Ding would have been drained away by the Yiguandao people and they would have left with those black talismans. Now, we fought hard to snatch those black talismans, and you still doubt us and want to search us? This is too much of a disrespect to us."

As he spoke, the sloppy Taoist priest looked at the masters of the major sects not far away and said loudly: "My fellow seniors, we were all invited by the special investigation team to deal with Yiguandao. All those who came here are not afraid of death. We are all here to make a call for justice for the people of the world. We brothers risked our lives to snatch these precious black talismans from Yiguandao. Now the special investigation team wants to search us. Isn't it a kind of killing the donkey after it has done its work? Everyone, please give us your judgment. Isn't it a bit conscienceless for the special investigation team to do this?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the masters from all the major sects immediately started discussing.

Immediately, an old Taoist from Wudang Mountain stood up and looked at Minister Xiao: "Minister Xiao, if you really want to search us today, it will chill the hearts of the heroes in the world. Who will dare to help the special investigation team deal with the Yiguan Taoist in the future? Since you want to search us, do you have to search us too?"
