The words of Mr. Gong are self-evident.
Sun Zhuo was born from the profound and divine jade fate of Xu Nuan, becoming the Lord's own fate.
Before I even challenged him to a battle of Daoist arts, he was instantly killed by Zheng Ren with a mere gesture of his finger.
Mao You has the body of Sun Zhuo, but Wu Ling didn't give it. Not only did he not give it, but he also emptied Sun Zhuo's dantian, dug out the bones, and scraped away his destiny!
Thoughts rushed into my head all at once!
Is this the point at which Mao You told Wu Ling to do something?
Mao You has been thinking about Sun Zhuo for so long. Would he just hand Sun Zhuo over to Wu Ling directly?
The answer must be no!
Mao You is a businessman, with his own ideas on why he needs the body of a Taoist.
If he wants Sun Zhuo's destiny, and he wants to give it to a disciple who hasn't stepped onto the stage yet, why not just tell me? I could handle the matter properly, instead of going to all lengths to kill Sun Zhuo!
From this point of view, it can be determined that Wu Ling disobeyed Mao You's attitude!
Many things, including my speculations about the Xu family, have been directly overturned!
There is also a detail here, Han Zizi saw someone kneeling outside Mao You's door!
I deduced that the person was Wu Ling!
And from this, he connected all the subsequent events to Wu Ling.
Based on the current situation, it seems that Wu Ling has not received Mao You's forgiveness!
He has essentially consumed what Mao You wanted.
Then Mao You and the Xu family's matters must be separated.
Everything goes back to the starting point. The Xu family had always wanted to win me over. Mr. Qu said that Xu Nuan was still useful, at that time, the Xu family had no intention of killing me.
My refusal caused the Xu family to completely give up their intentions, making Xu Nuan break down and rely on Wu Ling. This led the Xu family to want to kill me!
Yes! This way, the logic directly goes through!
The Xu family hates me to the bone, and Wu Ling hates me just as fiercely. Moreover, Wu Ling is aware of the existence of Old Qin's head, which could be the reason why Mr. Qu went to steal Old Qin's body?
Mr. Qu and Old Qin also have a grudge against each other!
But……Where is Old Qin's body?
The Xu family did not use the three-life worms as I had anticipated. After the three of them died, their souls disappeared, and it was not Wu Ling who abducted them...
Once Mao You is separated out, the person who committed the act must not be Mao You.
There is another piece of evidence that proves Mao You has nothing to do with this matter.
It is that if he and Wu Ling were to be placed in the same camp, wouldn't Mao You inform Wu Ling when something happens to the Xu family? But the result is that Wu Ling still knows nothing!
Could there be……a hand in the shadows?
Is he watching Wu Ling, watching the Xu family, or is he Wu Ling himself, a helper of the Xu family?
This person might be on the opposite side of Mao You.
My thoughts are racing!
Old Gong then fell to the ground, his head circling the body of Sun Zhuo repeatedly.
He You Tian's hands kept stroking his short beard, and his eyes were also filled with a mix of contemplation and sternness.
"He has hidden it very well, and there is no sign of his talent for Daoist arts," He You Tian muttered.
"He of course dare not show it, and as you all can see, his talent is quite ordinary. Suddenly becoming so strong, everyone would naturally wonder more. Quietly learning and jumping out unexpectedly to cause trouble at the crucial moment - that is his true nature," Old Gong lifted his head and said to He You Tian.
"However, his way of taking a life is very rare and quite ruthless. I have not seen it before, but…I want to visit the place where he lives. Maybe I can find something fresh there." Old Gong licked his lips.
"Not quite appropriate," I shook my head, and my thoughts came back to the present.
"If you go and are discovered, Wu Ling will definitely blame us for it. I just came back and have only just reconciled with the elders. This would not be worth the trouble," I said in a serious tone.
Old Gong's eyes kept turning, muttering: "Just watch him secretly work hard behind the scenes? Old man, he has big plans. Yes, he has even received Xiao Jiangzi's soul!"
Saying this, Old Gong's eyes turned fierce.
"The wisdom of Sheng Shen is indeed well considered, Old Gong, you are not an ordinary person. Your skills in Xuan Zhi Jinxiang Di Rushen are god-like. Isn't that enough to properly deal with a junior? You need to think about it more," He You Tian spoke at the right moment.
Old Gong remained silent, his eyes even more lively, as if lost in deep thought.
"Sheng Shen, go back to rest. Just be aware of this matter in your heart, and there is no better way temporarily," He You Tian said.
I nodded and then took out my mobile phone.
There was no signal here.
We re-buried Sun Zhuo's body and built a mound to cover it, and only then did we return to the Liupan Hall with He You Tian.
This has already been well into the late night.
I dialed a long-unheard phone number, but the voice prompt on the other end was that of an invalid number.
Mao You has completely cut off contact!
"I have an idea, okay," Old Gong suddenly exclaimed, causing me to turn my head and drawing the attention of He You Tian.
"I know how to make Wu Ling die, without dirtying my hands, hahaha, he must be thrilled," Old Gong's eyes widened, his face filled with a sinister smile and ill intentions.
Just that he refuses to tell me, saying that the secrets cannot be revealed. The more people who know, the greater the chance of something happening in the unseen world.
I didn't ask, and He You Tian also didn't pursue the matter further.
Returning to the cave for rest, there were no ups and downs that night.
Waking up the next day, I went to ask Ke You to bring me and He You Tian to the Qing Palace.
Inside the hall, there were no other elders, only the second elder.
The second elder asked me for an approximate time when the body could be delivered, requiring a more precise estimate.
I was about to contact Xu Jin down below, but unexpectedly, Xu Jin's phone rang. He happened to mention a matter where his master had retrieved all the bodies sold by Yao Yangju, but some of them were slightly damaged, and some indeed could not be found. About eighty percent had been collected, and they would be delivered to Siling Village within seven days.
After hanging up the phone, I told the second elder the exact time and the condition of the bodies.
Following that, I also mentioned a point regarding the inheritance my parents stole, which was all in the Jin Yang Wang, and once the plague ghosts were dealt with, the major Daoist temples could reclaim their belongings.
The second elder nodded, muttering, "Eighty percent is pretty good. This means that we at Siguang Mountain have done our best. Give them a little more favor and add the kindness of Zhu Xiangdao to you, as well as the good relationship with Guchang City. There shouldn't be any major problems. The small temples won't trouble you, and Juyu Mountain has also received your favors."
I pondered for a moment and said, "If there are still those who think it's not enough, you can tell them that there is indeed news about Tian Gongquan's cave. This matter, although the one at Shuangqiu Mountain wants to know it, I haven't said it yet. I only told the third elder of Guangxiang City. As my relationship with the Twin Monks is good, they will hand it over."
