"Uncle Tang." The words of the man next to him brought him back from his daze: "What should we do now?"

Tangning looked at his expectant and trusting eyes, and many emotions of guilt, self-blame, and shame suddenly surged into her heart.

If it weren't for him, Yin Qingyuan would not have been killed, and he had already decided not to return to the Qianyi Sect, so he felt a little ashamed to hold the sect's token and face the trusting eyes of his disciples.

"I remember you were originally a disciple of the Weapon Club, right? What's your last name?"

"Disciple Gaoyuan."

"Plateau." Tang Ning nodded: "Senior Brother Yin is willing to hand over the sect's token to you for safekeeping. He must trust you very much. I still have a task for you to complete."

"Please give me your instructions, uncle, and I will do my best."

Tang Ning said: "I don't know where Senior Brother Yin was killed, but I guess he has something to do with the Xu family. After what happened with Junior Brother Chen Da and Senior Brother Yin, if the Xu family is serious about it, they will soon find out about our sect. The Li family You can't stay any longer, otherwise as long as the Xu family says a word, you will all die without a burial place."

"Of course, it's possible that the Xu family doesn't care about you people, but just in case, you should evacuate from the Xu family! Besides, I predict that after Senior Brother Yin is killed, the remaining disciples will be disheartened, and over time, they will all leave the sect. ”

"So I want you to go back, gather the remaining disciples of our sect, and bring them to Donglai County. If there are people who are unwilling to follow, forget it. You just need to bring the words to them."

"Also, don't tell them it's because of the Xu family's affairs, just say it's my personal wish. The less people know about the Xu family's affairs, the better."

"Yes, disciple understands." Gao Yuan replied: "Uncle, how should I meet with my uncle after I bring all the fellow disciples here?"

"You guys go to the Qianxuan Inn in "Xuanhuali City". We will meet there in two months." Tangning turned her hand over and gave him thirty high-grade spiritual stones from her storage bag: "Take these spiritual stones. Treat it as a transaction fee.”

"Disciple bids farewell." Gao Yuan took the spirit stone and turned into light and left.

Tangning took out the file under the token, seal, and jade from the storage bag, and opened it to see that the materials diverted from the Qianyi Sect were stored in the bank of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce.

It also included a "suicide note" signed by Yin Qingyuan. In the "suicide note", he designated Tang Ning as the heir to the property. As soon as he dies, he can take the leader's token and seal to the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce to take them out and store them. of spiritual stones.

This "suicide note" was enough to show that Yin Qingyuan was prepared to be killed at any time. Tang Ning stood there blankly for a long time holding the "suicide note" in her hand.

Finally, he put away the file in his hand, turned into a ray of light, and headed to the northwest.

After traveling for most of a day, we arrived at "Xuanhuali City", took a merchant ship and traveled for three days to "Mingyuanli City". After leaving "Lishi" we traveled for more than a day, and finally arrived at the location of the city guard.

In the room, Jiang Yuhuan was practicing with his eyes closed when he heard a knock on the door. He opened his eyes from trance, got up and opened the door. When he saw Tang Ning standing at the door, he smiled slightly: "Junior Brother Tang is here. Please come in quickly.”

Tang Ning entered the inner room, sat opposite him, and said, "Senior Brother Jiang, I came to see you this time because of an urgent matter. A few days ago, a disciple named Gao Yuan came to me and brought Senior Brother Yin's relics. , Senior Brother Yin was killed.”

Jiang Yuhuan frowned slightly: "How could this happen?"

"I don't know the specific situation. Senior Brother Yin has been investigating Ren Qinqing's affairs before, and he was probably killed because of this."

Jiang Yuhuan muttered: "This is tricky. If Senior Brother Yin is discovered by the Xu family and killed, it proves that we have been exposed. What are you going to do next?"

"To be honest, I don't know either. I have ordered Gao Yuan to return to "Huanyuan Pavilion" and bring the remaining disciples to the county city to prevent them from being poisoned by the Xu family."

"If the Xu family really wants to deal with them, I'm afraid it's already too late."

"It depends on the attitude of the Xu family. In short, staying in the Li family is not a long-term solution. With the death of Senior Brother Yin, the remaining disciples will be leaderless and will immediately become a mess. It will not take long for them to disperse."

"It's best to be careful during this period. If Brother Yin's murder is related to the Xu family, then we will be in danger. Once the Xu family becomes aware of our existence, they may not be able to eradicate it."

"I know, that's why I came to tell you."

"Don't worry about me. I went to see Junior Brother Chen quietly. No matter how powerful the Xu family is, there is no way they could find me so quickly because they have eyes all over the Allied Forces. But you need to be careful. You showed your identity in the detention room. , and went to "Huanyuan Pavilion" to meet with Brother Yin. If they are interested, they can track you down. "

Tangning nodded and said slowly, "It depends on how seriously they take this matter."

"I think it's better to put the matter of Ren Qinqing aside for now! Don't add fuel to the fire at this time."

Tang Ning sighed: "Senior Brother Yin was probably killed because of this."

"As the saying goes, there is no need to worry about having no firewood if you leave green hills behind. If we want to go head-to-head with the Xu family, we are not qualified to give them anything. When the limelight passes and the Xu family forgets about this matter, we can think of something else!"

"I'm afraid Ren Qinqing will already be..."

"Now we have lost two Jindan monks because of her. Other disciples are also in danger of being killed at any time. Manpower is exhausted, so we must do what we can."

"I see."

"Junior Brother Chen Da, I will find an opportunity to communicate with him. I believe he can understand our situation."

The two talked for a long time, until nightfall, when Tang Ningfang said goodbye and left.

……………

In the Huanyuan Pavilion, in the huge light curtain of the barren mountain, in the room, everyone from the Qianyi Sect gathered together.

Gao Yuan said: "I invite you brothers to come here today to discuss an important matter. After Master Yin was killed, I went to Donglai County to meet Master Tang. According to his wishes, he asked us to leave the Li family and go to Donglai. Laijun City.”

"If any of you brothers are willing to leave, go back and prepare to pack your luggage. We will gather at noon tomorrow and we will go to the county town. If you don't want to leave, you can do it yourself."

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but no one answered, and the room fell into silence.

After a while, no one said anything. Gao Yuan said: "Whether we are going or staying, let's all express our opinions! It's not easy for us to escape all the way from Xingang to this place. All the brothers and sisters care deeply about the sect, otherwise we would have been killed long ago." Just separated."

"But now that this situation has arisen, neither you nor I expected it. Now Master Tang has made the decision to let us leave the Li family. We can stay or leave as we wish, and there is no force."

"Senior Brother Zhang, you have the highest cultivation level and the most senior qualifications among our brothers, so you should speak first!"

"Ahem." A man with gray hair on his temples coughed twice: "I, I need to think about it."

"Senior Brother Gao, I have a question." Another man said.

"Junior Brother Qian, please tell me."

"We have been separated from the sect since we left Xingang. We have been acting alone for these years. Why should we go to Uncle Tang now? Can't we make the decision ourselves?"

"Yes! Although Master Yin has passed away, we are still here. Why do we have to go to Master Tang? We can take care of ourselves. We can even choose a new headmaster to replace Master Yin. From now on, we can just obey his orders. echoed another man.

Gao Yuan said: "Uncle Yin gave me the leader's token and the sect's token before he was killed, and asked him to deliver these things to Uncle Tang once he passed away. I have already given the former's relics to Uncle Tang in accordance with his instructions, so Strictly speaking, Master Tang is already the leader of our sect.”

"What? Where are the sect's belongings?" asked the man surnamed Qian.

"Of course, it was also handed over to Uncle Tang."

"Why, how is this possible? Those spiritual stones were allocated by the sect for our cultivation. Uncle Tang is not a member of our team. How can he be in charge of these properties?" said a woman.

Gao Yuan said: "Uncle Yin has made a handover before his death. He designated Uncle Tang as the successor in the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce's bank. Once he dies, Uncle Tang can use the leader's token and seal to retrieve the property stored in the chamber of commerce. "

"Whether you like it or not, this is irreversible. Now only Uncle Tang can take out the property in the Chamber of Commerce."

The man surnamed Zhang said: "In other words, if we don't follow his instructions and leave the Li family, we won't get our share of the sect's salary, right?"

"Uncle Tang didn't say that, but it is very likely that it will be like this."

There was a brief silence in the room again. After a while, the man named Qian said.

"We are not against Uncle Tang. Of course we are willing for him to continue to lead us. It's just that we have finally established a foothold here. The Li family treats us quite well. Why do we have to leave again? I've had enough and continue. Days of wandering and aimless escape.”

Another man then said: "Junior Brother Qian is right. Senior Brother Gao, do you think this is okay? Please go talk to Senior Brother Tang and ask him to take charge of the Huanting Garden."

Gao Yuan said: "Uncle Tang is currently serving in the Allied Army, how could he leave privately?"

"Since he can't break away from the Allied Forces, why does he want us to go to Donglai County? We don't have any skills, what can we do in Donglai County? We can't just sit around and eat nothing all day long!"

"Uncle Tang has his own thoughts on these matters. Now we all just need to make a decision, should we go or not?"

"Junior Brother Gao, this is not a question of whether to go or not. There are some things that need to be explained clearly. If you don't go, will you not be able to receive the sect's salary?"

"I think so, because Uncle Tang is now the head master. If you disobey his will, it will be equivalent to betraying the sect. Naturally, you will no longer be able to receive salary."

"Then what happens after we go? Since Uncle Tang can't leave the Allied Army, he may be transferred to other places at any time, and he can't arrange us all into the Allied Army. What should we do then?"

"I said, Uncle Tang has his own arrangements for these matters."

"Junior Brother Gao, what you said is wrong."

Everyone debated endlessly, and finally broke up unhappy.
