Evil Master and Disciple

Fatty Yulong pondered for a moment and continued, "Xu Kai, have you ever absorbed the spiritual energy of the earth veins?"

Xu Kai nodded slightly and said, "Well, I've absorbed it two or three times with Senior Brother Lin."

"Besides you and Lin Yi, are there any other disciples in Yunhai Sect?"

When Lin Yi heard this, a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

He shook his head and said, "I can't say."

Xu Kai’s words are interesting.

His answer wasn't "I don't know," but "I can't say."

It was obvious that he knew that there were other people involved in this matter.

Even the big fool Ye Feng could hear it, so how could the old and strong fat man Yulong and the old man guarding the temple not hear it?

Master Yulong knew that Xu Kai was very smart, and he planned to use this matter as his life-saving talisman.

He didn't pursue the matter further, but instead asked, "Regarding Feng'er stealing the map from Lin Yi and discovering the secret of the map, besides you and Lin Yi, who else knew about this?"

Xu Kai immediately shook his head and said, "It should be just the two of us who know about this. After all, the Spiritual Vein Formation Eye Map is of great importance and involves many people. Senior Brother Lin is not stupid, he would never let the news leak out, otherwise he would be in trouble himself."

Fatty Yulong nodded slightly.

Then he turned to look at Ye Feng and said, "Feng'er, your problem has been solved. For the remaining two months, you should stay here to guard the mausoleum and reflect on your mistakes. Learn skills from our ancestors and don't mess around all the time, especially with women... I punished you to guard the mausoleum and reflect on your mistakes, but you built a harem in our ancestral land and brought women back to stay overnight every day.

As the saying goes, beautiful women are like tigers; if you meet one, you must avoid them! If you provoke these tigresses, you will be eaten to the bone!

Ye Feng curled his lips and said, "Master, have you ever heard another saying...No venture, no gain!"

Master Yulong's fat face froze, and even the old man guarding the temple couldn't help but twitch his mouth slightly.

Suddenly, Master Yulong burst into laughter and said, "You little brat, you are indeed my disciple. You are right! It seems that you have really grown up! It's daybreak now. Isn't your tigress training in the bamboo hut? Go to your tiger's den. I will discuss with the ancestor how to deal with this matter. Oh, and leave Xu Kai's sword behind."

Ye Feng wanted to hear the outcome of this matter.

But this matter is complicated.

Compared to those people stealing spiritual veins and assassinating himself, this matter seemed insignificant.

God knows how many disciples and elders of the Yunhai Sect will be implicated in this matter.

His words are of little importance, so I don't want to get involved.

He took out Xu Kai's magic sword and handed it to his master.

Then he nodded and said, "Master, senior, I will go back first."

When he reached the gate of the ancestral hall, Ye Feng suddenly stopped again.

He turned to look at Xu Kai and said, "Senior Brother Xu, can I ask you a question?"

Xu Kaidao: "What's the problem?"

Ye Feng said: "Three months ago, how did you kill me?"

Xu Kai was stunned for a moment, then said, "You hadn't reached the Sky Control Realm at that time. I hit you in the chest with one palm, and you were motionless."

A gleam of light flashed in Ye Feng's eyes, and he said, "Do you remember the exact time?"

Xu Kai said: "The third day of March."

"Okay, I get it now."

Ye Feng didn't stop this time, he stepped over the threshold and walked out.

Fatty Yulong was a little confused and said, "Why is this kid asking this? Does he want to regard the time he was buried last time as his birthday?"

Seeing that Ye Feng had walked away, Fatty Yulong looked at Xu Kai again.

He said, "Xu Kai, if you want to live, tell me which disciples of the Yunhai Sect have seized the earth's spiritual energy."

Xu Kai whispered, "As far as I know, there are nearly a hundred people, most of whom are elders of the Yunhai Sect, and some are elite disciples. If I reveal their names, the Yunhai Sect will be in chaos. Therefore, I can't tell you even if I die."

Fatty Yulong's expression changed instantly.

There was also a faint light in the eyes of the old man guarding the temple.

In the past few thousand years, there have been many cases of grabbing the spiritual power of the earth veins, but the largest number of people involved was only more than twenty people.

This time, nearly a hundred people were involved!

And they are all elite inner disciples and elders.

This is something Xu Kai knew.

Xu Kai's status was not high, so it was impossible for him to know the complete list. In other words, the number of people who participated in seizing the earth's spiritual energy was at least over a hundred.

It is estimated that each of these people is a world-famous elder, senior, and elite disciple.

Master Yulong's head suddenly grew several times bigger.

This matter is much more serious than he expected.

Master Yulong said, "Xu Kai, you are not deceiving me, are you?"

Xu Kai shook his head and said, "Since I have confessed, there is no need to deceive my uncle."

Master Yulong looked at the old man guarding the temple.

He said, "Grandfather, this is a serious matter. With so many people involved, it can be said to be the largest case of spiritual vein theft since the founding of the Yunhai Sect. If things go wrong, it will seriously damage the vitality of the Yunhai Sect. What do you think we should do?"

The old man guarding the temple said hoarsely: "Things in this world are not over yet, so it's better to let it go."

"Just let it go like this? Even if the law doesn't punish the masses, there's no such thing as this. With so many people simultaneously seizing the spiritual energy of the earth veins, if this continues for a long time, it will definitely have an impact on the spiritual veins of the entire Tianyun Mountain Range. I don't think we can just let it go like this."

Seeing Master Yulong shaking his head, the old man asked, "What do you think we should do?"

Master Yulong thought for a moment and said, "I have to report this matter to the Second Brother. As for how the Second Brother handles it, I have no right to interfere."

The old man guarding the temple asked, "Then what are you going to do with this Xu Kai?"

Fatty Yulong glanced at Xu Kai, who looked a little terrified, and said, "I said I would save his life, but I think the second brother will ask him about this matter in person, so let him stay here for now."

The old man guarding the temple nodded and said, "Okay."

Fatty Yulong untied the immortal ropes that bound Xu Kai and said, "Xu Kai, I have one last question for you. I don't need you to reveal the list. Just tell me, Fourth Brother...was your master involved in this?"

Xu Kai immediately shook his head and said, "No, Master has already reached the Void Transformation Realm. He doesn't need to absorb the spiritual energy of the earth veins to improve his cultivation. Master is not aware of this."

"Well, then you will stay here for the time being. Don't worry, you won't die. However, you can't go back. As for how to punish you in the end, only the leader can decide."

Xu Kai's face looked ashen and he slowly lowered his head.

The old man guarding the temple said, "You know how to open the secret room at the back. Lock him in there first."

Ye Feng returned to the bamboo building and took a look. The doors and windows were closed. Yun Shuang'er should still be practicing inside.

He didn't go up to disturb them, but started to clean up the mess at the door.

The accumulated water receded to the west, leaving a lot of dead wood and fallen leaves on the ground. He was fine as he didn't like cleaning much so he just tidied it up casually.

The old man who guards the temple has a miserable life. Just the piece of stone space in front of the temple entrance is enough for the old man to sweep for several days.

While Ye Feng was working, he seemed to notice something. He looked up and saw a ray of light rising into the sky from the south and flying away.

Ye Feng knew that his master had returned to the front mountain.

early morning.

Jin He was reporting what happened last night to his master, Jade Ying Zhenren, in the bamboo house of the teahouse.

After hearing this, True Person Yuying looked very strange.

She wasn't surprised that the killer showed up last night.

She was not surprised that Master Yulong appeared.

Yun Shuang'er's appearance was not surprising at all, because this was what she had secretly instructed this little disciple more than a month ago.

What surprised her was An Nian.

"Did An Nian really say that her master didn't know about this matter, and that she was entrusted by Fu Jinghong to protect Ye Feng in secret?"

Jin He nodded and said, "Yes, that's what Junior Sister An said."

True Man Yuying's brows gradually furrowed.

Jin He saw his master's serious expression and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Yuying Zhenren said slowly: “Yulong did not let Ye Feng reveal the killer’s face in public, but took him away by himself. Fu Jinghong also arranged for someone to protect him secretly, and this person… turned out to be An Nian.

It seems that Master has oversimplified the situation. Yulong must know something. Could Ye Feng's matter really be related to the heir apparent struggle between Fu Jinghong and Dugu Changkong?

Jin He's heart skipped a beat.

Party struggles, succession struggles...

What a terrible word.

If you get involved with it, you will either rise to great heights or end up in misery.

Jin He said slowly, "That can't be right. If the two senior brothers were really involved, how could Junior Sister An Nian get involved? Wasn't it because Senior Uncle Yu Mian got involved in this kind of thing that he ended up like this?"

Yuying Zhenren said slowly: "This is the crux of the matter. Yumian is a victim of factional strife. She should have hidden herself in Lotus Peak now. She shouldn't allow her disciples to be involved in this generation of Yunhai Sect's factional strife.

However, everyone in the Yunhai Sect knew that her eldest disciple An Nian had an unusual relationship with Fu Jinghong.

Yu Mian did not stop this... I am worried about the master..."

"Master, are you worried that Senior Sister Yumian has been holding back? Does she have other motives?"

"It's possible. She was deeply in love with your uncle, Master Yunhe. Then something bad happened to Yunhe, and Yumian is always obsessed with it. I'm worried that she hasn't let go of the old grudges yet. She wants to take advantage of the fight between Changkong and Jinghong to stir up trouble. If that happens, it will be bad."

True Person Yuying, Fairy Yumian, and Fairy Yunyu, these three sisters had the best relationship when they were young.

More than two hundred years ago, Fairy Yumian joined the wrong side. Later, Fairy Yumian moved to live on Lotus Peak and rarely returned to Xingluo Peak.

True Person Yuying still cares about Fairy Yumian very much.

Every once in a while, I would visit Lotus Peak.

Occasionally Jinhe would go along.

Therefore, the relationship between Jin He and An Nian is quite good. They are about the same age and have known each other since childhood.

Judging from Fairy Yumian's performance in recent years, True Person Yuying believed that Fairy Yumian had long since walked out of the shadow of the past.

However, An Nian's involvement in the party's fight for succession made Yuying Zhenren really confused.

She thought that she had to find an opportunity to ask Fairy Yumian.

Then he asked, "He'er, did anything special happen yesterday?"

Jin He thought for a moment and said, "Oh, by the way, Master Yulong asked me to bring you a message."

"What?"

"Master Yulong said he owes you a favor, Master. He also said he will come to you in person to give you an explanation about what happened on that snowy night over two hundred years ago."

Upon hearing this, True Person Yuying's mouth twitched slightly and her expression changed slightly.

It seems that some bad memories came back.

It was a snowy night, with white snowflakes falling from the sky and bright red blood on the ground.

It was a snowy night and also a bloody night.

Those who participated in the assassination had sworn an oath to keep the matter secret forever and never mention it again.

Seeing his master's sudden change of expression, Jin He cautiously asked, "Master, you...what's wrong with you? Did something happen over two hundred years ago?"

True Man Yuying came to her senses and shook her head, saying, "These are all unpleasant things. He'er, you've been in the bamboo forest all this time. Go back and rest first."

Jin He knew that something earth-shattering must have happened on that snowy night more than two hundred years ago.

But she didn't dare to ask more questions and left the teahouse.

After she left, True Person Yuying took out a wooden box from her storage bracelet. After opening it, there were two things inside: a fist-sized black stone and an exquisite dark blue scimitar.

She picked up the machete and reached out to loosen her collar.

When the collar was lifted, one could see a shocking scar on the skin below her neck, which was covered by the collar. The scar extended downwards and disappeared into the clothes, so it was impossible to see how long the scar was.

"exquisite……"

Yuying Zhenren gently touched the scar under her neck, looked at the scimitar in her hand, and muttered to herself, "That incident really didn't end completely with the snowstorm. It seems that Yulong has guessed that I already know Ye Feng's identity.

Linglong, that time, your knife almost cut me in half. Was it Yulong's superb medical skills that saved me, or did you just hold back in the end? The look in your eyes before you died...has given me nightmares for over two hundred years."

The image of the peerless demon woman from the Demon Cult, holding a baby and covered in blood, emerged in Yuying Zhenren's mind...
