Chu Ming smiled and gestured to the side, and Cao Zhengchun took out the masks of eight black-faced thieves and handed them to everyone.
"From now on, you will use the word '人' as your code name, which is 人一, 人二, 人三,,,,,,,"
Now Zhu Shihu was the only one left on the field. What happened just now had already shocked his courage, and he lost the courage to fight after the first attack.
Just when he was about to end it on his own, he found that he seemed to be stuck in a swamp, and his actions became more and more difficult.
And the more he struggled, the stronger the pulling force became, and he was soon sucked into the devil's aura. Zhu Yuyan took the opportunity to hit him in the chest, killing him on the spot.
In this way, all the teams sent by Zhu Shilong to Tianlong Territory were lost in Linshan City.
All the situations were as expected by Chu Ming. Originally, the appearance of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce was the first step in the plan, in order to attract reinforcements from the Eastern Region Branch.
I just didn't expect that Zhu Shilong would be so cooperative. Not only did he send out a luxurious lineup, but he also left with great fanfare, for fear that he would not know that the treasure house was now guarding an empty place.
This also created favorable conditions for Chu Ming to implement his next plan.
Everyone began to clean the battlefield quickly. Since there was no fierce fighting, it became easier to cover up traces of the scene.
The corpses were all put into storage rings. To outsiders, it looked like the warriors of the West Sea Chamber of Commerce left in a hurry.
Chu Ming then led the people to "Xucheng", which is where the Eastern Region Branch of the Xihai Chamber of Commerce is located.
The time has come to implement the third step of his plan.
Just when the East Territory was in a turmoil, Wen Shuyue led people back to Guanghan Palace.
Luo Jinghong already knew what happened to her in the Eastern Region, and he saw her staring at everyone in front of him with a frosty face.
"The trip to the Eastern Region has ruined the face of our Guanghan Palace. Once the prestige established over ten thousand years has been lost, how can you have the dignity to be the saint of our Guanghan Palace."
The palace master's statement first frightened Elder Wang and others to the ground. Only Wen Shuyue said calmly, "Disciple knows that I was wrong. It was my mistake in judgment that caused the sect's reputation to be damaged. I am willing to It has nothing to do with the elders.”
Seeing her expression, Luo Jinghong felt like there was a fire in his heart.
"Carry it? How do you plan to bear it?"
"My disciple is willing to resign from his position as a saint and concentrate on practicing in seclusion."
"What did you say!"
Wen Shuyue's words were like throwing a boulder into the calm lake. The elders kneeling on the ground looked at her in horror.
Luo Jinghong was so angry that he couldn't control his aura. The pressure of the Martial Saint surged towards Wen Shuyue like a tide. The latter only regained his footing after stumbling continuously.
But his stubborn look still showed his unwillingness to give in.
"Palace Master, the Saint cannot be blamed for this matter, we are also responsible."
"And the saint's various responses were also very appropriate, preserving the majesty of Guanghan Palace to the greatest extent."
The accompanying elders all begged Luo Jinghong for mercy. Normally, Wen Shuyue was deeply loved by everyone in the sect, but they did not want to lose the most outstanding saint in history because of the Linjiang Tower incident.
"You guys go down first."
The elders who were granted amnesty hurriedly walked out of the hall. Only Elder Wang passed by Wen Shuyue and whispered, "Don't be willful."
After everyone left, Luo Jinghong still stared at Wen Shuyue angrily.
She only had one disciple, and she had always been raising her as her own daughter. He never expected that she would repay him in this way today.
"I heard that you went to the Exile Realm to meet Chu Ming, right?"
"yes."
Wen Shuyue knew that none of this could be hidden from her master, and she did not want to hide anything from her master, so she simply answered everything truthfully.
"Yue'er, you disappoint me so much. I didn't expect that you still can't forget an ordinary person. Is it because he didn't empathize with you and moved you?"
Hearing the master's reproach, Wen Shuyue felt aggrieved, and her tears kept flowing like broken beads.
Seeing her like this, Luo Jinghong felt a little distressed and said hurriedly, "You and him are from two different worlds after all. You have to recognize the reality!"
Hearing what the master said, Wen Shuyue became even more sad. Not only did her tears flow faster, she even burst into tears.
This made Luo Jinghong completely panic. Wen Shuyue had always been calm and rational, and had never been so out of control.
Seeing his disciple in such pain, Luo Jinghong sighed softly and said in a compromised tone, "Yue'er, even if the master is willing to help you, but wait until a hundred years later, and your life has just begun, won't you be even more miserable by then?" ”
"Master, his martial arts level is higher than mine."
"What did you say?"
"This is the bastard who injured my disciple in Linjiang Tower!"
After saying that, she couldn't bear it anymore and threw herself into Master's arms and cried loudly, like a wronged child.
"You said Chu Ming is a warrior?"
Luo Jinghong was only now convinced that she had heard correctly. The news that her disciple brought back was unacceptable to her.
You must know that Guanghan Palace's selection of objects for the "Red Earth Tribulation" is very strict, and needs to be checked by the Presbyterian Church, the guardians, and the saint herself.
Moreover, Chu Ming's family background, origin, character and other aspects had already been investigated clearly before this.
Why did he suddenly become a warrior now?
You must know that the person who injured Wen Shuyue in Linjiang Tower was a famous martial artist.
Because of this, Luo Jinghong had no real intention to punish her precious apprentice for this matter.
After all, the strength gap is too big, and no amount of talent can make up for it.
The main reason that made her really angry was that Wen Shuyue went to the Exile Domain to look for Chu Ming.
But now things have taken a 180-degree turn. She doesn't believe that Wen Shuyue would lie about this matter to excuse herself.
After all, he was the disciple who was raised by herself, so she still knew his character very well.
"Okay, stop crying and tell Master how you discovered him."
After Wen Shuyue stabilized her mind, she told her master all her suspicions.
And at the end, he emphasized, "After all, Yue'er has been sleeping with him for three years. Even if he changes his appearance and voice, how can he hide it from me."
Looking at Wen Shuyue with pear blossoms and rain, Luo Jinghong's expression gradually became serious.
Everything about Chu Ming can be faked, but his age cannot be faked. For a Martial Saint warrior in his twenties, if this were to spread, it would definitely cause an "earthquake" in the Shanhai Continent.
"Who else have you told this about?"
"Only Elder Wang knows, the other elders don't know."
Luo Jinghong nodded happily. Wen Shuyue didn't lose control of herself at the critical moment, and her years of training were in vain.
"Don't reveal this matter to anyone. I will also warn Elder Wang later to keep silent. Just pretend that this matter never happened."
"But Master, what should I do? Chu Ming knew that I was using him, so he hurt his disciple mercilessly in Linjiang Tower. How will I face him in the future?"
Luo Jinghong looked at Wen Shuyue and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Since the founding of Guanghan Palace, we have never encountered such a thing. The carefully selected targets are not only warriors, but also unprecedented geniuses.
After thinking about it, Luo Jinghong sighed.
"Follow your heart, no matter what decision you make, Master will support you!"
Hearing Master's heart-warming words, Wen Shuyue threw herself into her arms again.
Luo Jinghong stroked her long hair and sighed helplessly.
Can Wen Shuyue be blamed for this? Of course not. In fact, she is the biggest victim, and it is the entire Guanghan Palace who has failed in its duty.
However, from Wen Shuyue's description, Luo Jinghong was basically able to determine Chu Ming's identity.
After Wen Shuyue left, she summoned Elder Wang and severely warned her not to reveal anything about the Exile Domain.
Elder Wang thought that the palace master wanted to protect Wen Shuyue and ensure her status as a saint, so he agreed hastily.
After handling everything, Luo Jinghong gathered his emotions and came to the core of Guanghan Palace.
——"Looking at Tianfeng".
"Master, my disciple wants to see you."
"Hong'er is here, come in."
In the main hall is a girl with long black hair, slender eyebrows, bright eyes, and a slender and graceful figure.
She is actually the previous palace lord of Guanghan Palace - Xing Youhuang, a genuine martial artist.
"Master, the descendant of Tiangong has appeared."
"oh?"
The other party, Gujing Wubo, felt a little turbulent in his heart, and there was a rare strange look on his face.
"The first patriarch once predicted that in 129,600 years, the Shanhai Continent will face another disaster. Only under the leadership of Tiangong can everyone survive this disaster."
"But after so many years, the descendant of Tiangong has never appeared. Even I was a little skeptical of the ancestor's prophecy, but I didn't expect that he would still appear."
"Why do I see you looking so embarrassed? Could it be that he has something to do with our Guanghan Palace?"
Xing Youhuang keenly discovered Luo Jinghong's anomaly.
"He is Yue'er's husband who has passed through the tribulation of mortal world."
"Giggle..."
Xing Youhuang couldn't help but laugh out loud, looking even happier than he had just learned about the birth of the descendant of Tiangong.
Seeing this scene, Luo Jinghong couldn't help complaining, "Master..."
"I don't know what you are worried about. Tiangong will be the savior of the entire continent in the future. Isn't it a good idea to establish a relationship with him in advance?"
"But now he resents Yue'er for deceiving him and even hurting Yue'er."
"Is Yue'er dead? Will the injury affect her future achievements?"
"Master, what exactly do you want to say? Stop pretending."
Luo Jinghong accused Xing Youhuang of dissatisfaction. Being able to talk to his master like this shows that the friendship between them is very deep.
Xing Youhuang was not annoyed at all by his disciple when he was criticized in person. Instead, he further encouraged her.
"You have to know that a relationship is better than no relationship, let alone a matter between a man and a woman. Who can predict how it will develop in the future?"
