Chapter Three Hundred and Eight: Unbelievable

Tianjike looked at Elder Xuan respectfully, and asked softly, "Excuse me, Dean, where is the scholar now?"

For a moment, all eyes were on Elder Xuan.

Faced with everyone's curious gazes, a smile appeared in Xuan Lao's calm eyes: "The scholar is nowhere to be seen."

"But you just said that?" Shu Kexin didn't understand.

"Hehehe, the old man said just now that he had a clue to find the scholar, but he didn't say that there was a trace of the scholar."

"this……"

Hearing Elder Xuan's calm words, Shu Kexin almost fainted out of breath.

"A few days ago, the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion in Liucheng suddenly announced that she knew the scholar's clue, but she had a request that only her future husband could know this secret. And the news spread After that..." Old Xuan's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he continued: "Great families, nobles, and all major forces in the world have young talents who have come to the City Lord's Mansion to propose marriage, but, aside from the people that the young lady didn't like, the total The four teenagers passed her test, but in the end, they all died strangely and violently before their engagement date."

"What!"

Everyone's face changed when they heard it, and they all looked horrified.

"Could it be that the lady agreed to the marriage of those who passed the test on the surface, and then secretly sent someone to assassinate them?" Tianjike asked suspiciously.

"This, I'm afraid I don't know." Elder Xuan shook his head, which is exactly what he didn't understand: "Although the City Lord's Mansion is related to the royal family and nobles, its family power is very ordinary, and the strongest is just the City Lord. One of the four people who went to propose a marriage and passed the test, one of them also reached the five-star Yuanyuan realm, died suddenly. It is so strange that it is really puzzling."

"The matter of the scholar is related to the lifeblood of the Phoenix Temple. Since the daughter of the city lord has clues, how can the powerhouse of the Phoenix Temple give up?" Venerable Sword said puzzled.

Hearing this, Gu Hong shook his head and sighed softly: "Brother, you don't know something. Although the strength of the city lord's mansion in Liucheng is average, the city lord's wife is the younger sister of His Majesty today. They are not only royal relatives, but also direct descendants. Royal family! Phoenix Temple has always been questioned by the outside world about its loyalty to the royal family, so no matter how anxious they are, they will not send strong men to grab the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion."

"What Gu Hong said is right. Because of the existence of Mrs. Chen Yu, Fengshen Palace took into account the face of the royal family and did not dare to force it. After all, King Feng has always wanted to show his loyalty to His Majesty to the world, so he absolutely It will not harm the imperial family! Now they may only be able to send outstanding disciples to the City Lord's Mansion to propose marriage, but before finding out why the four passers died suddenly, Fengshen Temple will not act rashly." Xuan Lao said indifferently road.

After listening to Elder Xuan's words, as the wise man among the Seven Masters, he stroked his beard with one hand, and his eyes sparkled: "The city lord's daughter said that she knew the clues of the scholar, and designed to test those who came to propose marriage. What do you think?" , could she be the real culprit who killed those teenagers who cleared the customs?"

Elder Xuan shook his head: "It's not like others haven't thought about your doubts. However, after investigation, it turns out that Miss Qianjin doesn't know any kung fu at all. When the young man's incident happened, he was also by the city lord's side, and there are many people who can testify, so this matter may not be that simple."

Hearing this, Tianjike was even more puzzled: "This is strange! Since the guard couldn't get away, and Miss Qianjin is a mortal with no power to restrain a chicken, who killed those teenagers? Could it be that ...is it the Temple of the Phoenix?!"

"If we talk about the motive of the murder, the Phoenix Temple is indeed quite suspicious. Although they dare not attack the people in the City Lord's Mansion, they can attack the youngsters who have passed the test. After all, with the tyranny of the Phoenix Temple, naturally they will not Allowing the treasures of the tombs of your ancestors to be touched by outsiders. But think about it, with the ability of the Phoenix Temple, who else in the world can be their opponent besides us? Think about it from another angle, if the old man is the Phoenix King, instead of If those teenagers are killed, it is better to let one of them get married to the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion, and then wait for him to ask the clues, and go to find the scholar, and then take the opportunity to snatch it! At that time, neither the people of the City Lord's Mansion will be hurt, and they can also be killed. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone to snatch the treasures from the Tianhai Tomb?" Elder Xuan said flatly.

"According to what you said, dean, it makes sense..." Shu Kexin's beautiful eyes were full of doubts: "Since the murderer is not Fengshen Temple, who could it be?"

...

For a moment, needles could be heard in the hall, and no one could understand such an unbelievable thing.

Venerable Dao thought for a while, and suddenly said: "How about we also send a young man with both talent and appearance, maybe he can be favored by that young lady?"

"But didn't you hear what the dean said, the four teenagers who were favored by the lady before are all dead, aren't you afraid that our disciples will also be murdered?" Gu Hong frowned, expressing his objection.

"The strong list in the inner court of our Holy Heaven Academy is not a display. It is not so easy to die. Besides, we can send a small team to assist him. The five-person team cooperates with the Qingyun Xuantian Formation. Even if there is any danger, I will I believe that they will still have the power to protect themselves and escape!" The Venerable Dao's words are actually to let the disciples go out to practice and experience, without actual combat, they will eventually be reduced to vases.

"That's what you said...but which hall do you plan to let the disciples go?" Gu Hong was a little guilty, her medicine refining hall was the weakest, not even a single Skywalker. Without the five-person team of Skywalker in charge, even if Qingyun Xuantian formation is used, it is afraid that it will not be able to exert the power that this formation should have.

Master Jian stood up suddenly, and cupped his hands at Elder Xuan: "I am not talented in Wanjiantang, and I am willing to be this person who tests the water!"

Seeing this, Venerable Dao also quickly got up and argued: "Principal, let our Lingwu Hall come. Although there is Mo Ying in Wanjian Hall, he is the young master of Yunxiao Sword Sect after all. In order to perform the task, we forcefully Recruiting a daughter-in-law for Baidi, if this matter is not handled properly, it may hurt peace."

"What did Junior Brother Dao say? I didn't want Mo Ying to propose a marriage. I could let my disciples go there and take a look at the city lord's daughter. If someone is attracted to her, just go to propose a marriage. As for Mo Ying, Just be a guard." Venerable Sword said with a smile on his face.

"Brother Jian, you are joking too. Apart from Mo Ying, do you have any other male disciples from Yushu Linfeng in Wanjiantang? Go for someone else, even if he has a crush on someone else's daughter, can they still fall in love with him?"

"You! Are you saying that my Wanjiantang disciple is ugly?!"

"No, why should Senior Brother Jian get angry? You know that my Lingwu Hall is recognized by the inner court as the home of handsome men and beautiful women. Among the previous disciples, all those who compete for beauty have been worshiped under my sect. The Spirit Martial Hall occupies four, as long as we send out our strongest team, this task will definitely be completed!"

"You narcissist! You!"

Every time the two meet, they can't help but talk to each other. The habit of so many years has been maintained until now.

Hearing that they couldn't stop fighting, Elder Xuan sighed helplessly: "Okay! We are born from the same root, so why bother each other so quickly, when will you understand this truth, and you still don't look like you are masters!"

Immediately reprimanded by Elder Xuan, Venerable Dao and Venerable Jian immediately looked away from each other, with jumping anger in their eyes.
