Chapter 829 Return to Pingliang

"In this case, let's let the old monk investigate. If City Lord Duan is indeed unjust, the old monk will clear City Lord Duan's innocence. Your Majesty, Lord Situ, you don't want your brother to suffer unjust injustice. Bar!"

"Of course, if the old monk finds out that... the city lord is really colluding with the Demon Sect and harming the righteous way, then our Demon Hunting Association and the Seven Holy Lands will not just let it go..."

Although Monk Huiguang was talking about cutting off the Qingjiang River, the implication was clearly that the sword was aimed at cutting off the Northern Han royal family.

Duan Qinglin didn't stop him, and he didn't have the ability to stop it.

The Demon Hunting Association is an alliance formed by many forces throughout the Yuanwu Continent to deal with the Demon Sect. In terms of power and status, it is not comparable to the Northern Han Dynasty royal family who only have Qian Qianzhai. Monk Huiguang wants to investigate. Even though he is the leader of the Northern Han Dynasty, he is definitely Qinglin was also unable to stop it.

With a cold snort in his nostrils, he sat back on the throne and shouted: "In this case, my Lord will let him live for a few more days. Seven days must be enough. I hope Master Huiguang can handle it impartially!"

"That's natural!" Monk Huiguang smiled and nodded.

As for whether these words are sincere, it is unknown.

"By the way, the four little kids are young and promising. They eradicated the Pingliang Demon Nest and exposed the officials of the Northern Han Dynasty who were colluding with the Demon Sect. I have revealed the truth about talented people like you. The old monk is extremely pleased... In this way, The old monk has made the decision and will give you and the other four people 300 points each as a reward. I hope the four of you will kill more members of the Demon Sect and leave your names on the Demon Slaying List..."

Monk Huiguang smiled and gave Ye Feng and the others some favors.

Without the cooperation of the four people this time, it would obviously not have been possible so smoothly. It could be used as a reward for their obedience.

The other three were very happy, but Ye Feng felt a little unhappy. Inexplicably, he became a gun in the hands of Monk Huiguang and Master Tianji, which made him very unhappy.

The four of them quickly left Dajin City and embarked on the road south again.

"Junior brother Ye, why are you looking so sad? Let's come back. We just wasted a day and got three hundred points in vain. This is equivalent to killing thirty low-level demon disciples. Senior sister, my ranking is finally Six hundred points ahead..." Wu Xiaoyu said carelessly.

Ye Feng's points increased to 790, and her ranking climbed to 308. Cao Lei also broke into the top 500. Even Tang Chuxue received a Demon Killing Order and 300 points, which instantly made her ranking soar. to over nine hundred.

But this made Ye Feng unhappy.

Ye Feng could still recall Duan Qingjiang's lifeless eyes and his desperate expression in the imperial court from time to time in his mind.

"I know that Duan Qingjiang may be unjust, but it is also possible that he really colluded with the Demon Sect." Tang Chuxue had already seen through Ye Feng's thoughts, "Xiao Feng, have you ever thought that all of this might just be Is he acting?"

"Yes, if you are really entangled with the Demon Sect, then you deserve it. The more I look at him, the more I feel that he does not look like a good person. There are many more tragedies in the Pingliang area than in other places, and nine out of ten of them are related to this City Duan Lord. , He died to eliminate harm for the people," Wu Xiaoyu said fiercely.

"Besides... didn't Master Huiguang say that he would definitely find out the truth..."

However, Cao Lei smiled bitterly and shook his head, interrupting Wu Xiaoyu's words. Among the four, except for Ye Feng, only Cao Lei saw through the nature of the matter and spoke out to persuade him: "Junior Brother Ye, why bother? The matter of cutting off the city lord is not what it used to be. , Qiandori Zhai and Tianji Temple are fighting fiercely in the Northern Han Dynasty, it is better for us to stay away and not get involved. "

The three of them comforted Ye Feng with their words, but Ye Feng still couldn't let go. After pondering for a long time, he finally seemed to make up his mind: "Chu Xue, if this matter is not brought to light, my martial arts will be hindered. Why don't you follow the wizard sister and senior brother Cao Lei to Xitang first, and wait until I find out about this matter, find the spies who let those four scum go, and bring justice to Qingjiang."

Tang Chuxue seemed to have known that Ye Feng would do this for a long time: "In that case, I will go with you. I can help to some extent..."

"How can this be done? You underestimate us too much. You want to go together." Wu Xiaoyu obviously did not agree with Ye Feng going into danger alone.

But Ye Feng has his own plans.

Now is not the time to act impulsively. It is really difficult to go out into the muddy water this time. You will have to deal with king-level masters. If Tang Chuxue, Wu Xiaoyu and others are following, Ye Feng will easily shrink back.

Even if he encounters a crisis that cannot be resolved, he still has options.

The worst case scenario is to simply break the "Xuan Yizong" token that was originally obtained and go directly to the Zhongqian World where "Xuan Yizong" is located. A few extra bottles of oil will not do it.

Under Ye Feng's patient persuasion, Tang Chuxue and the others finally compromised unwillingly, and the four of them immediately parted ways.

Seeing the dimming figures of Tang Chuxue and others, Ye Feng frowned, and after showing a trace of determination in his eyes, he ran towards the direction of Pingliang City alone.

One day later, he entered Pingliang City again.

The huge Pingliang City is still bustling, and it has not changed because of the changes in the city lord.

Ye Feng's movements were extremely low-key, and he had to plan everything before taking action, so he just stayed in an inn next to the city lord's palace.

There must be a Mo Sect spy in Pingliang City, but is this person Duan Qingjiang?

If it wasn't Duan Qingjiang, who would it be?

Ye Feng can almost conclude that this person must not be an unknown person, but has a certain reputation and even a position in the city lord's palace.

It was this person who cooperated inside and outside to let Su Moyan, Zhang Taining and others go. Ye Feng's first task now was to identify the suspect first and then find out this person.

If the mastermind can be caught, Duan Qingjiang can naturally be cleared of the suspicion of being a demon.

But where to start?

While Ye Feng was thinking hard about countermeasures in the inn room, there was a sudden noise on the street outside the city lord's mansion.

Ye Feng lifted up the small half of the window and looked out through the gap, only to see that it was Monk Huiguang who had brought a group of people to Pingliang City to investigate the case of cutting off the Qingjiang River to introduce demons.

Duan Qingjiang did not collude with the Demon Sect at all. In this case, there could be no accomplices or instigators.

Therefore, Huiguang's purpose in investigating this case is to fabricate some evidence to point to the Northern Han Dynasty royal family, and then take the opportunity to obtain more benefits from the Duan family controlled by Qian Qianzhai, and even gain control of the entire Northern Han Dynasty. .

Even Ye Feng knew this inside story. How could Duan Qinglin, the leader of the Northern Han Dynasty, not understand?

So this time, in addition to Monk Huiguang, a king-level master, Qiandori Zhai also urgently transferred a king-level elder. They also came to Pingliang City in the name of "assistance" to prevent Monk Huiguang from taking the opportunity to attack. The sewage was poured on the entire Danjia and Chidorisai...
