Chapter 445 Secret Talks of the Lingxiao Immortal Sect
The mourning crowd surrounded a middle-aged man in gray robes who was sitting cross-legged.
The middle-aged man's face was covered with wrinkles, but he sat upright, and his physical vitality had not yet dissipated, so he looked no different from others.
Elder Leng.
Standing beside them was a group of Supreme Elders of the Lingxiao Immortal Sect, led by an old man with white hair and a white beard.
"Elder Zhenling, what exactly is going on?"
Leng Ruoyun stepped forward, her pretty brows furrowed, and asked with a puzzled expression.
The sudden and unexplained death of the Grand Elder of the Mahayana Sect shocked the sect, and all the Grand Elders who could come came.
Everyone looked solemn. Elder Zhenling, with his sage-like face, said gravely, "This morning, Elder Ke's soul lamp went out and was discovered by the disciple guarding the lamp."
"When we arrived, Elder Ke's soul had already disappeared."
"Since the soul lamp has been extinguished, Elder Ke's soul is likely to be in grave danger. Even if it survives, if it does not return to his body within seven days, his physical body will also weaken and die."
After Elder Zhenling finished speaking, the ten Mahayana cultivators present shook their heads and sighed.
Elder Ke specializes in cultivating the divine soul, so how could something still happen after he leaves his body?
When the soul lamp goes out, the person is most likely gone.
Elder Zhenling looked at Leng Ruoyun, his white eyebrows furrowing slightly, and said, "I heard that Elder Ke's disciple, Li Mao, also died a couple of days ago. Elder Leng, what exactly happened?"
They had previously discussed that Li Mao's death was most likely related to Ke Wuliang's death.
The death of Mahayana is of great importance, and no clue can be overlooked.
If anyone secretly attacks his Lingxiao Immortal Sect, he will not tolerate it!
Leng Ruoyun's expression turned serious, her delicate brows furrowed, and her gaze turned cold.
Xu Xiao?!
impossible? !
She was shocked. Just yesterday, Ke Wuliang had been contacting her, asking her to go and investigate Xu Xiao herself!
He died today?!
Calming herself down, Leng Ruoyun was still shocked and said, "Elder Zhenling, elders, Li Mao was finally found at Wuwang Pawnshop. I also went to investigate."
"We found no evidence that the other party had taken action, and I don't know whether Elder Ke's death was related to this matter."
"But... Elder Ke told me yesterday that he would go to Wuwang Pawnshop to look for clues himself."
Wow!
The expressions of the Mahayana elders present, as well as the disciples who were wailing beside them, changed.
Wuwang Pawnshop?!
The people of the Wuwang Immortal Sect actually have this kind of guts?!
"It must have been the Wuwang Immortal Sect that did this!! All the Supreme Elders, you must avenge my master!!!"
"My master died such a tragic death!!!"
"Raze the Wuwang Pawnshop to the ground!! The Wuwang Immortal Sect even murdered my Senior Brother Li Mao!! They deserve to die!!!"
The disciples turned around and knelt down to kowtow to the Supreme Elders.
When the Wuwang Immortal Sect was involved, Elder Zhenling's expression became quite solemn.
He frowned and said, "Elder Leng, since there is suspicion, why wasn't the person from Wuwang Pawnshop brought back to the sect for interrogation?"
Leng Ruoyun was taken aback by what she was told. "This... without evidence, it's not easy to arrest them."
The elders' brows twitched slightly, and a young man in bright yellow brocade robes sneered, "Elder Leng, could it be that you've accepted ten Immortal-Nourishing Pills from Xu Xiao and are finding it difficult to make a move?"
This statement shocked everyone present.
Ten Immortal-Nourishing Pills?!
Did Xu Xiao give it to you?
Which Xu Xiao?!
Leng Ruoyun looked at the young man in brocade robes, her beautiful eyes flashing with disgust, and said, "Sect Leader Dugu, don't talk nonsense. How can I arrest someone without evidence?"
"Besides, the Wuwang Pawnshop is full of Nascent Soul cultivators. How could they possibly kill Elder Ke's soul? There must be something fishy about this!"
Leng Ruoyun's words sounded fine to her.
But when a group of senior elders heard this, their eyes widened in shock.
Elder Leng, are you speaking up for the people from Wuwang Pawnshop?
Seeing that the other party was speaking up for Xu Xiao, the young man in brocade robes was immediately enraged and gritted his teeth, saying, "Elder Leng! That Xu Xiao is Yu Bing's Daoist partner! And he's also a notorious pervert in the Xilan Region!"
"You took his things, are you already prepared to sacrifice yourself?!"
Leng Ruoyun was furious upon hearing this, her beautiful face flushed red, and her Mahayana spiritual power surged around her: "You're spouting nonsense! What does it have to do with you, Dugu Hao, that I accepted Xu Xiao's pills!"
"I have already investigated what needed to be investigated. If you think Xu Xiao is problematic, go and arrest him yourself! I will not stop you!"
He personally admitted to possessing the elixir of immortality.
The assembled elders were dumbfounded.
Xu Xiao?!
Am I crazy? !
It's Xu Xiao, the one everyone in the Western Region hates, who uses his resources to harm female cultivators every day!
And she's even the Daoist partner of Venerable Yubing!
They've arrived in Lingxu City?!
Sending Immortal-Nourishing Pills to Elder Leng?!
Ten at once?!
Everyone was stunned. This damn scoundrel... his evil claws have even reached into their Lingxiao Immortal Sect?!
Seeing that Leng Ruoyun was still protecting that little lecher, Dugu Hao gritted his teeth in anger, wishing he could go and kill Xu Xiao right away.
You damn beast!
In the Western Regions, there are so many lovers, and even a celestial being like Yu Bing as a Daoist partner!
And yet he still dares to extend his evil claws to Leng Ruoyun, whom he has been pursuing relentlessly in the Heavenly Light Domain?!
Damn it!!
You filthy bastard! I'll make you pay!
"Alright! Stop making trouble!"
Elder Zhenling was angry. With a wave of his hand, a powerful pressure spread out, and everyone shut up.
He glanced at Leng Ruoyun and murmured to the crowd, "If there is no evidence, then invite Xu Xiao and his Wuwang Immortal Sect disciples to my Lingxiao Immortal Sect. I will personally explain things to Changmei."
"Elder Leng, since you have accepted ten Immortal Nourishing Pills from Xu Xiao, you don't need to worry about this matter anymore. Just focus on your cultivation; this is a great opportunity."
Leng Ruoyun nodded: "Yes, Elder Zhenling."
Zhenling continued, "Sect Leader Dugu, Elder Ouyang, Elder Liekong, the three of you go to Lingxu City and bring back the people from Wuwang Pawnshop, especially that Xu Xiao. That kid has powerful spiritual treasures and I heard he's good at dealing with Yin Souls and Divine Souls."
"Elder Ke is the Supreme Elder of my Lingxiao Immortal Sect. If the Wuwang Immortal Sect really dares to make this move, I must find Changmei and demand an explanation!"
The three people whose names were called nodded.
Dugu Hao looked excited, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
How dare you, you little pervert, have designs on Leng Ruoyun, whom he has been pursuing for a hundred years?
court death!
"Elder Leng and Elder Ouyang, please stay. The rest of you may leave."
The group left, taking with them a bunch of mourning inner sect elders and disciples—bad luck.
There were three people left in the room: Zhenling, with white hair and beard, and Leng Ruoyun, a plump and beautiful woman in palace attire.
Ouyang Jinghong is a tall, charming woman with a perfect waistline.
Zhenling glanced at Ouyang Jinghong and stroked his white beard, saying, "Elder Ouyang, is your disciple Xiao Jinli Xu Xiao's lover?"
Ouyang Jinghong, dressed in a red dress, looked as beautiful as a young girl. Her face twitched slightly as she nodded and said, "That's right. The two of them are already in a de facto Daoist couple relationship. He promised Bao Jinli all the resources he would have in the future, and has already given her a lot of Dao Integration Pills and a spiritual treasure."
Beside her, Leng Ruoyun's pretty eyebrows twitched slightly, her eyes filled with a hint of disdain and contempt.
Elder Zhenling nodded: "What are her thoughts on the marriage to the Black Demon Realm?"
Ouyang Jinghong frowned slightly, her delicate brows furrowing: "Jinli was bewitched by Xu the scoundrel, so naturally she is unwilling and is still in solitary confinement."
Elder Zhenling's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled gently, saying, "The wedding will proceed as scheduled. When you go to Lingxu City this time, take Xiao Jinli with you to help with the preparations."
Ouyang Jinghong blinked slightly, glanced at Zhenling, and nodded silently.
After she left, Elder Zhenling looked at Leng Ruoyun, his old eyes gleaming, and asked, "Ruoyun, does Xu Xiao like you?"
