C2369 Playing Dumb
2Article 2369.
"I want to know why he's the only one here. I'll just go and ask him."
Yuan Lia smiled coldly, stood up, and walked out of the door. When everyone saw this, a trace of worry appeared in their eyes. If Yuan Lia really wanted to take revenge... Killing Ning Beixuan in front of so many people would undoubtedly bring trouble to Yuan family! Thinking of this, they hurriedly followed after him. In their hearts, they had to persuade Yuan Lia to bear with it no matter what. Don't act rashly!
...
"An elder of the Yuan family has appeared!"
"Hiss... The elders of the Ninth Clan have gathered? What kind of background does the other party have? Can he get all the elders of the Yuan family to come here? "
"Wait, look at his sleeves!"
"That mark..."
There was a mark on Ning Qi's sleeve. It looked like an iron sword. This was the mark of a disciple sweeping the floor of Profound Sword Sect. Many people present recognized this mark and were even more shocked.
"A disciple sweeping the floor of the Profound Sword Sect? Could it be that the Profound Sword Sect is going to attack the Yuan family?"
"Impossible! The Yuan family's third room Heavenly Prodigy, Yuan Long, was an inner circle disciple of the Profound Sword Sect's Great River Peak. His master was Ancestor Jiang, an existence at the Golden Immortal Realm! Why would the Profound Sword Sect attack the Yuan family?!"
"Then what's the matter with this sweeping disciple...? Speaking of which, how dare a mere sweeping disciple behave atrociously in the Taisui Lane? Isn't he a little too bold? "
Everyone was puzzled and curious, but they knew that the truth would be revealed soon!
"Great Elder!"
Yuanhao's eyes revealed a wild joy when he saw Yuan Lia and the others. Apart from Yuan Lia, the other Great Elders of the other nine chambers followed Yuan Lia and appeared in front of Ning Qi. They were looking at Ning Qi with all kinds of strange and serious eyes.
"May I know which Peak Master's direct disciple of Profound Sword Sect you are? Why have you come to Taisui Lane?"
Yuan Lia looked at Ning Qi and asked.
Judging from his current expression, it was impossible to tell that he had already known Ning Qi and even invited an assassin to assassinate him.
"Are you pretending to be stupid? Yuan Lia, didn't you already know who I am when you asked Chen Leegang to kill me?"
Ning Qi said with a faint smile.
Chen Leegang?
When these three words came out of Ning Qi's mouth, the surrounding Immortals looked at each other in shock, and a strong sense of doubt rose in their hearts!
Chen Leegang was an Early Period of Heavenly Immortal Stage expert. In the Taisui Lane, he was much more famous than Yang Zhenzhi, the Chaos Hand. This disciple who swept the floor of the Profound Sword Sect actually said that Yuan Lia had invited Chen Leegang to assassinate him? So, how could he stand here today?
Confusion arose one after another. Everyone was at a loss as to what was going to happen next. They were looking forward to what would happen next.
The news that Yuan Long had asked Yuan Lia and the others to help him take revenge was only from the elders of the Yuan family. As well as the ten Yuan family Heavenly Prodigies who won the competition last time, no ordinary disciples of the Yuan family knew about it. Therefore, Yuanhao looked at Ning Qi with a shocked expression. It was as if he was looking at a madman.
Yuan Lia frowned and looked at Ning Qi. "What did you say? How come I don't understand?"
"You don't understand? Then you should recognize this."
Ning Qi smiled. When he was preparing to come to Yuan family, he knew that it was impossible for Yuan family to admit that he had hired an assassin.
Because that would be the same as openly going against Profound Sword Sect.
Therefore, Ning Qi brought something with him. With a casual toss, that thing was inserted in front of Yuan Lia and shook left and right a few times.
When everyone saw this thing clearly, they all sucked in a breath of cold air. The scene became somewhat silent.1
"That's Yuan Lia's son, Yuanlong? I saw him once in the past, and he looked exactly the same! But... isn't he the direct disciple of Old Ancestor Jiang, the master of the Profound Sword Sect's Great River Peak? Why did he... die?"
"Could it be that this kid killed him? No, that's not right. This kid's cultivation base is only at the Human Immortal Great Perfection. Even if he used some unknown means to kill a few Earth Immortals just now... He should have already reached the Complete Earth Immortal Realm a long time ago. He was only half a step away from the Early Period of Heavenly Immortal Stage!"
"Big Brother Yuan Long?"
"Is it really Yuanlong? How did he become like this?"
Regardless of whether it was the immortals who were watching the show or the people of the Yuan family, they were all looking at the head that was being held up by the spine and swaying in the wind with disbelief on their faces!
"How could this be... How could Big Brother Yuan Long die..."
Yuanhao's body was cold, and his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Yuanlong actually died in his hands? This is going to be difficult..."
After recovering from their shock, the elders of the other rooms all revealed a serious look in their eyes as they subconsciously looked at Yuan Lia.
Yuan Lia's face was expressionless as he looked at Yuan Long's head. In just a breath's time, two breaths, three breaths. Only after three breaths did he take a deep breath. His gaze once again fell upon Ning Qi, and his voice seemed to contain no emotions at all as he said, "My son Yuan Long, who killed him?"
"Could it be an elder of the Profound Sword Sect?"
When the elders heard Yuan Lia's words, all of them came to their senses. No wonder Yuan Lia didn't explode at the first moment, but instead became so calm all of a sudden.
Because if the elders of the Profound Sword Sect killed Yuan Long, then this grudge... Not only could they not get their revenge, but in the following period of time... They were afraid that they would have to keep a low profile and treat this as a warning given by the Profound Sword Sect.
"Yuan Long asked you to hire someone to kill me, so the one who killed him is naturally me? Who do you think it is?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"Hiss..."
How could it be him who killed him? Disbelief appeared in everyone's eyes as they looked at Ning Qi in shock.
"You have killed my son Yuanlong. Regarding this matter, I will definitely seek justice from the Profound Sword Sect. You are not welcome here. You can leave now."
Yuan Lia said indifferently.
After seeing Ning Qi, several guesses had already flashed across his mind. Now, these guesses were getting closer to the truth.
"Yuan Long's cave is in Great River Peak. There's no reason for him to kill his way there and take his head away so easily. How could the numerous Heaven Immortals and elders of Great River Peak not take action to suppress this brat? Unless the Low-grade Dao Artifact in his hand wasn't taken away by the true disciples of those sects! "
Yuan Lia had seen the power of that Mountain River Purple Gold Hammer with his own eyes. Now that Ning Qi really has this Dao Artifact in his hand, the people present today... Unless Patriarch Yuan personally attacked... Only then would he be able to suppress this kid... However... In this way, he would truly become the enemy of the Profound Sword Sect. Unless it was absolutely necessary... The Yuan family didn't want this matter to escalate to such an extent.
"Old Man Xuanjian already knows that Yuan Long asked you to invite someone to kill me. If you go to the Profound Sword Sect, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back. So, let's settle our score here."
The corner of Ning Qi's mouth raised slightly as he said.
"How is this possible..."
"If this is the case, wouldn't it mean that we have completely broken off our relationship with the Profound Sword Sect?"
"Old Man Xuanjian, do you really know?"
Yuan Lia suddenly smiled.
