Start with one punch

Chapter 40 I will not disgrace my mission!
What Huo Xi said so far didn't sound like there was much of a problem, but Yang Jing didn't believe it directly. Losing the secret book was a big deal. He immediately asked someone to check the situation and see if what Huo Xi said was true.

After the dispatcher left, Yang Jing's expression softened a lot. If what Huo Xi said was true, then he couldn't be entirely blamed for this matter.

However, he changed the subject: "You went to Muyang County to recruit people, but why were you detained? And you were threatened, asking us to use spiritual stones to redeem people?"

Huo Xi immediately said: "Palace Master, this is a misunderstanding! In fact, the uncle of the Qin family in Muyang County is called Lin Huaian. He was a good friend of mine before I joined the family. Later, we parted ways due to some misunderstandings. This time, my subordinates did not expect to be here. When we met him in Muyang County, before the misunderstanding was explained clearly, his subordinates were kidnapped by him. Later, in a rage, he asked our disciples to come back and send a message, saying that he would redeem them with spiritual stones.

Fortunately, later on, thanks to him, the Huayuelou assassin tried to assassinate me on the street, but he stopped him. Otherwise, my subordinate might not be able to come back. After I went to Qin's house, I explained the misunderstanding to him. However, the disciple sent back to spread the message had already left for a long time and could not catch up, so there were all these follow-ups.

Palace Master, he was angry when he asked us to pay a thousand spirit stones. It was not aimed at our Chaotian Palace, but at me personally. I had joked with him in the early years. I will not go into details about what happened. At that time, according to the agreement , I do owe him a thousand spiritual stones.

Palace Master, this misunderstanding was caused by me. The 1000 Yuan spirit stones that the sect gives out will be deducted from my salary from now on. "

Huo Xi finished speaking in one breath, only to find that Yang Jing and the two guardians behind him looked at him with strange expressions.

Yang Jing had a strange look on his face and said: "There is no need to withhold your thousand spirit stones. I don't know that he is your friend, nor do I know the misunderstanding. This time, in addition to sending Zhang Wantang to redeem you, I also gave him a The mission is to kill all the Qin family and get back the spirit stone..."

Hearing this, Huo Xi's face changed drastically. He finally managed to make things right, but he ended up making such a fuss again.

Only then did he realize why Zhang Wantang didn't leave with him. He was so focused on how to cover up the truth that he forgot about Chaotian Palace's behavior. How could Chaotian Palace have suffered such a loss since it founded the sect? , must take revenge.

He was very worried. If the uncle of the Qin family mistakenly thought that he had instigated Zhang Wantang to attack the Qin family, would he be able to defeat the enemy and tell the truth directly?Then when the time comes, what he said will turn into deception, and Yang Jing will probably kill himself directly.

Huo Xi panicked and didn't know what to say, but his expression seemed normal in Yang Jing's eyes, which meant that what Huo Xi said before was true. He and the uncle of the Qin family were indeed close friends. This is a normal reaction when you hear bad news now.

After all, Huo Xi is one of his subordinates. He is one of the sixteen deacons of Chaotian Palace. He has worked very hard over the years. He cannot be entirely blamed for the secret book being taken away this time. In addition, Zhang Wantang took action this time, and his friend must have been dead. After saving, Yang Jing, as the palace master, thought for a while and decided to say a few words of comfort.

At this time, a disciple called to see him.

At this time, it was announced that something big must have happened, so Yang Jing quickly asked people to come in.

After the disciple who reported the news entered the room, he first glanced at Huo Xi, and then hesitantly said: "Palace Master, Zhang Wantang, Master Zhang was kidnapped by the Qin family in Muyang County, and they asked us to redeem him with two thousand spiritual stones. …”

The room fell silent for a moment, and there was no sound for a long time...

Yang Jing glanced at Huo Xi, his eyes asking, what's going on?Huo Xi was still panicked. The things he was worried about were developing in another direction, and it was also a bad development. He didn't expect that Mr. Lin was so courageous and just tied him up. Now he also tied up Zhang Wantang and returned the lion. Open your mouth and ask Chaotian Palace to bring out two thousand spirit stones...

Two thousand spirit stones are equivalent to the annual output of two medium-sized spirit stone mines. Even if you have a mine at home, you can't afford it...

However, Huo Xi reacted quickly and said: "Palace Master, this matter is not difficult to understand. You also said before that Tang leader Zhang went there with the intention of exterminating the family, so my friend resisted, and this is how we are now. This situation, there is too much misunderstanding here, why don’t I go to Muyang County in person and explain this misunderstanding clearly?”

Yang Jing glanced at him lightly: "No, you need to avoid suspicion these days. Don't go anywhere. Just stay in the palace. I will give you your freedom when the matter is found out."

Huo Xi felt something in his heart. He knew that Yang Jing was suspicious again.

No longer talking to Huo Xi, Yang Jing turned to look at Yan Yongyuan and Meng Tianyou: "This thief is going too far. He actually kidnapped my Chaotian Palace disciples twice and threatened us. If we don't do something, how will the world look at us in the future?"

Huo Xi didn't dare to speak at the side. He knew that if he continued to speak now, he would definitely be pinched to death by the palace master.

Yan Yongyuan and Meng Tianyou did not dare to continue fighting in secret. Meng Tianyou said: "Palace Master, Zhang Wantang is good at fighting. He has been at the top of the first-class realm for many years. Ordinary first-class masters cannot last long in front of him. This thief can be captured." Zhang Wantang shows that his level is definitely higher than Zhang Wantang."

Yan Yongyuan also responded: "Yes, this thief has probably reached the realm of a minor master, but there is a minor master in Xiaomuyang County. It is a bit intriguing. I wonder if Deacon Huo can explain it?"

Huo Xi hurriedly said: "Palace Master, the two protectors, I really don't know about this matter. I have no contact with him since we parted ways, and I don't know why his cultivation base has increased so much."

Yang Jing didn't say anything, just looked at the two guardians.

Meng Tianyou gritted his teeth: "Palace Master, I underestimated this thief before, but this time I decided to let Protector Yan and I take action together. The two of us have stayed in the realm of little masters for a long time. If we join forces, even if this happens No matter how many thieves there are, they are no match for us."

Yan Yongyuan and Meng Tianyou are both in the minor master realm, and they have been fighting with the other two factions before. They have rich experience in actual combat. If the two of them join forces, even Yang Jing himself will think that it is difficult to deal with him, so he nodded and said: "Okay, you two We will go to Muyang County now, bring Zhang Wantang back, and then exterminate the Qin family. You don’t have to worry about matters in the palace. If the other two factions take the opportunity to come to the door, I will invite several elders who are in seclusion to come out. "

The elders in Chaotian Palace who are in seclusion usually do not care about worldly affairs. They only practice cultivation and stay in the realm of small masters. Everyone in Chaotian Palace knows this, and it is also their confidence. Usually no one goes there until the critical moment. Disturb the elders.

Yan Yongyuan and Meng Tianyou no longer had any scruples, and immediately clasped their fists and said, "Don't worry, Palace Master, we will definitely fulfill our mission!"
