The group's favorite master, the story of a cute baby who travels through the book and defies t

Su Xi's silence made Yao Siyan feel uneasy, and also gave others a bad feeling.

Li Lin asked stupidly, "Could it be that there are people in Xuannv Sect who are colluding with the demons?"

Unexpectedly, after Su Xi opened her mouth, she shook her head and denied it: "I don't know."

Is it that there is but we don't know it, or that there is not and we don't know it? Obviously everyone is leaning towards the former, but he doesn't intend to say anything more, so we can only give up for now.

Xia Zixuan continued to ask: "What's the matter with the demons in Luoyang City? Your participation in the Oiran Contest this time, does it mean that the demons are related to the City Lord's Mansion?"

Luo Yiyi nodded: "Brother Zixuan, do you still remember the Medical Fairy Island and the Gongsun Family?"

Xia Zixuan understood immediately: "Is there something wrong with Luoyang City Lord Sun Mingyuan? But I don't sense any demonic energy from him."

Luo Yiyi shook her head this time: "Sun Mingyuan is not a demon, nor a half-demon. But the news shows that the City Lord's Mansion has connections with the demons. As for the details, I haven't investigated it clearly yet."

At this time, Su Qiaoqiao asked cautiously: "Do you think that Sun Siyun is related to the demon clan? Just like Gongsun Qiuwei at that time, and Sun Mingyuan is the one who protected her?"

Xia Zixuan looked at Su Qiaoqiao and Yao Siyan: "Did you feel anything when you were next to Sun Siyun?"

After thinking about it, they both shook their heads.

Su Qiaoqiao frowned and replied: "I didn't feel anything unusual. Besides, Sun Siyun's cultivation is only in the initial stage of foundation building. He shouldn't be able to hide anything, right?"

Yao Siyan reminded: "Oh, right! Weren't there three men in black who attacked Sun Siyun? Could they have any connection with the demons?"

Unexpectedly, no one seemed to react after hearing it, so Li Lin explained to her.

"These three men in black should be a play arranged by Sun Siyun himself."

Yao Siyan was surprised: "Huh? Why did she want to act out this scene?"

"I won't discuss their purpose for now, but those three people are not demons, but cultivators in the foundation-building stage. I guess they are probably subordinates of the City Lord's Mansion."

"You ask about the purpose? This is not simple."

When everyone's eyes shifted to Luo Yiyi, she confidently expressed her guess.

"Of course it's to choose a good son-in-law!"

Everyone was puzzled: "A son-in-law who rides the dragon?"

"In addition to the Wuliang Sect, the Oiran Contest also invited the Xuannv Sect, Taiyi Sect, and Tianyan Sect. Let's not talk about the Xuannv Sect, the Taiyi Sect specifically wants Xia Zixuan to participate, and the Tianyan Sect hinted that they want Zhanzhan to participate. Isn't this Sima Zhao's intention, known to everyone?"

Xia Zixuan was surprised: "The invitation letter that Tianyan Sect received actually asked Jian Zun to come?"

Even Su Xi looked around subconsciously: "Isn't Sword Master here?"

Luo Yiyi crossed her arms and said as a matter of course: "Of course I didn't come, because Zhan Zhan didn't know anything about it!"

Su Qiaoqiao, who knew her naughty nature, asked suspiciously, "Did you intercept the message to inform Sword Master?"

Luo Yiyi didn't think there was anything wrong with her: "Yes! I'm Zhan Zhan's uncle, so of course I have to check his marriage for him!"

Su Qiaoqiao held her forehead with one hand and said weakly, "Aren't you afraid of being put in solitary confinement again when you return by doing this?"

Xia Zixuan accurately grasped the loophole in the words: "Since you intercepted the news that Luoyang City was sent to Tianyan Sect, why did you say that Tianyan Sect sent you to inquire about the matters related to the demon clan?"

Luo Yiyi blinked, put down her arms, and answered reluctantly.

"Because the mission I accepted from the sect was to rescue the disaster-stricken townspeople in Mudu Town, and then I accidentally heard the news that there were demons in Luoyang City. Although it has not been confirmed, I still wanted to come and investigate."

Li Lin suddenly realized: "No wonder you suddenly brought up the issue of the plague in Mudu Town during the competition. So you had this idea in mind for a long time?"

Luo Yiyi chuckled, and couldn't help but look smug on her little face.

"That Prince Xiaoyao said something nice, like he personally went to offer condolences and donated relief supplies. But you have never experienced the tragic scene of hell on earth. In the face of the disaster, we don't need his condolences at all. Although those medicinal herbs are useful, they are just a drop in the bucket."

Su Xi frowned, as if she couldn't believe it: "Is the epidemic in Mudu Town really that serious?"

Luo Yiyi nodded and said, "It's worse than you think. When I arrived, the plague was at its worst. When I entered the town, there were people lying on both sides of the road who were seriously ill. In the woods behind the town, there was almost no place to bury the bodies, but they couldn't be burned directly because the smoke from the burning bodies would carry the plague."

Su Xi's expression became more serious. "These facts were not stated in the intelligence reported to Xuannv Sect. It only said that the plague in Mudu Town was generally under control, and the situation was gradually improving with the support of all parties."

Xia Zixuan asked: "Didn't the Xuannv Sect send anyone to check the situation on the spot?"

"Of course we did send out disciples, but the information they brought back was exactly the same as what the intelligence said."

"There are only two possibilities. One is that this disciple has a problem and is deliberately concealing and distorting the truth. The other is that this disciple has also been misled and thinks that what he 'saw' is the truth."

"No matter what, we must get to the bottom of this matter, Senior Sister Yao!"

When she heard her name, Yao Siyan's expression quickly turned serious.

"Yes!"

"Please report the incident in Mudu Town and the abnormal behavior of that disciple to the sect."

"I understand."

Then, Yao Siyan walked to a corner, sorted out the information she had just obtained and passed it back to the relevant deacon of the sect. The subsequent investigation would be carried out by relevant personnel.

Everyone looked at Luo Yiyi again, and she continued speaking.

"Thanks to everyone's efforts, the epidemic in Mudu Town has been brought under control, and a drug that can cure the disease in its early stages has been developed. However, the ingredients used in this drug are rare and expensive. In addition, the disposal of corpses and the reconstruction of the entire town all require a lot of money. As a last resort, I can only turn my attention to the Oiran Contest."

Li Lin was puzzled: "Why don't you just tell the people in Luoyang City the truth and ask them to help?"

"At the beginning of the epidemic, the government of Mudu Town sent people to seek help from Luoyang City, but Luoyang City was just like King Xiaoyao. After providing financial assistance at the beginning, it was no longer willing to help. Otherwise, the plague in Mudu Town would not have spread so seriously."

Luo Yiyi said disdainfully: "They don't have the money to help Mudu Town survive the epidemic, but they have the money to hold the Hundred Flowers Festival. Do they know that their laughter and joy are built on the sadness and pain of others?"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions became heavy as they thought of the dead townspeople.

At this time, Yao Siyan, who was in contact with the sect, came back in a panic.

"Junior Sister Su, this is bad! Deacon Zhao just said that the disciple who went to investigate the epidemic in Mudu Town has been missing for several days and there has been no news since then."

Luo Yiyi expressed everyone's thoughts: "So there really is something wrong with that disciple? She disappeared either because she fled for fear of crime or was murdered to silence her. I guess this clue is completely gone."

Everything seemed to have returned to the starting point, and the weight on everyone's shoulders was the weight of those lost lives - heavy and sad.
