Final Volume Chapter 2

Chapter 2 of the Final Volume

Zhong He knelt down and cried bitterly, and all the disciples knelt down together, crying on the ground one by one. Wei Biao, who was standing aside, blinked his eyes and knelt down as well. He had no tears, but he squeezed out a few drops.

The fact that the great elder Huangfu Xiutai had "killed" the great elder Dongfang Yehuai was no small matter. The news quickly spread throughout the city, and also reached Xiao Xuan.

These two days, Xiao Xuan was waiting for the results of the discussion of the Shenchi Elders' Council on the selection of the new Saint King, but he didn't wait for the result, but waited for the bad news that Dongfang Yehuai was killed.

Seeing the disciples who reported the news kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, he subconsciously stood up and asked in disbelief: "You...you mean that Elder Dongfang is dead?"

"Yes, my master was killed by that old villain Huangfu Xiutai!" The disciples said while crying.

How is this possible? Huangfu Xiutai is a bit arrogant, but he is not stupid enough to kill Dongfang Yehuai openly! Chuan Wang Xiaoxuan frowned and asked, "Is there a misunderstanding?"

"We saw this with our own eyes. I hope His Royal Highness Chuan Wang can make a decision for our master!"

"Yes, please make a decision for our master!" The disciples cried and cried, which made Xiaoxuan believe that this was true.

Is Huangfu Xiutai crazy? For a mere throne, is it worth it for him to risk the world's condemnation to kill Dongfang Yehuai, who is of the same status as him?

Xiaoxuan dodged and said to a Chuan general below, "Go! Bring Huangfu Xiutai to see me!"

"Yes! King!" The Chuan general bowed and responded, but he did not leave immediately, but stood still.

Xiao Xuan asked in a deep voice: "What? Didn't you hear what I said clearly?"

General Chuan asked with difficulty: "What if... Huangfu Xiutai refuses to come?"

Xiao Xuan's eyes condensed, and he said: "Take more soldiers with you. Even if you have to tie him up, you must tie Huangfu Xiutai up for me!"

"Yes! King!" Hearing Xiao Xuan say that he could lead the troops, General Chuan immediately felt confident. This time he responded neatly and turned around and walked out of the tent.

Speaking of Huangfu Xiutai, after running out of Dongfang Mansion, he went straight back to his home. But after returning home, he was more and more scared. Dongfang Yehuai's death was not a trivial matter. He was the most suspected. Was this matter over?

He was restless in the hall, his heart was in a mess. He thought about it over and over again, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Finally, he called the servant and said in a hurry: "Go and ask Elder Jin to come, go quickly!"

The servant didn't need to ask who Elder Jin he was talking about, and he knew that he was referring to Jin Xuan. The only elder who usually interacted with his master was Jin Xuan. The servant responded and ran out quickly.

Not long after he left, he returned. At the same time, Jin Xuan strode in from outside. "Brother, I heard that you killed Dongfang Yehuai?" Jin Xuan asked impatiently as soon as he entered the hall.

Huangfu Xiutai smiled bitterly and said, "Junior sister has also heard about this? Junior sister, you don't believe that it was Brother who killed Dongfang Yehuai, do you?"

"Now that this matter has spread all over the city, how can I not know? Moreover, the disciples of Elder Dongfang have passed the news to all the elders, and they want to punish you together! Brother, what is going on? Why do the disciples of Elder Dongfang insist that you killed their master?"

"Alas!" Huangfu Xiutai also realized that the matter was more serious than he expected. He shook his head repeatedly and told Jin Xuan everything about his visit to Dongfang Yehuai.

The more Jin Xuan listened, the deeper his frown became. She knew her senior brother quite well. If it was really her senior brother who did it, he would never lie to her. However, Dongfang Yehuai could not have died suddenly for no reason. Since it was not her senior brother who did it, Wei Biao was the biggest suspect. She asked, "Brother, you said... Wei Biao took the initiative to come to you to visit the Dongfang Elder?"

Huangfu Xiutai nodded and said, "Yes, otherwise, why would I go to visit Dongfang Yehuai? It was Wei Biao who said in front of me that I could visit Dongfang Yehuai at this time to show my broad-mindedness and help me win the position of Saint King... Could it be that Junior Sister thinks that he is secretly doing something?"

Jin Xuan shook her head, nodded again, and said thoughtfully, "Although I am not sure, it is almost right!"

After pondering for a while, she murmured, "I am afraid that Senior Brother has been fooled and fell into the trick of the old thief Nie Zhen. Now that the Dongfang Elder has been killed, Senior Brother is the most suspicious. Nie Zhen can enjoy the throne of Saint King just by watching the fire from the other side of the river!"

One sentence awakened the dreamer. Huangfu Xiutai suddenly realized and uttered a cry, stamped his feet repeatedly, and said angrily: "What a sinister and cunning thief, I will go to him to settle the account now!" As he spoke, he strode out.

Jin Xuan hurriedly pulled him back and persuaded him: "Brother, what's the point of going to Nie Zhen now? Even if he is really behind it, how can he admit it?"

"Then... Junior Sister, what do you think Brother should do now?"

"This matter is full of doubts, and I still can't figure out how Wei Biao killed Elder Dongfang."

Huangfu Xiutai calmed down and thought back, and said: "Yes, at that time, he didn't touch Dongfang Yehuai at all, and he was so far away from the bed. Could it really be him?"

Jin Xuan narrowed his eyes and said faintly: "If you want to find out the truth of the matter, you can only find a coroner to perform an autopsy..."

Huangfu Xiutai nodded repeatedly and responded: "Yes, as long as the autopsy is done, everything will be revealed."

Jin Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that Elder Dongfang's disciples won't allow us to do an autopsy!"

After all, it doesn’t mean that it’s not said! Huangfu Xiutai looked at Jin Xuan helplessly and rubbed his hands anxiously. Jin Xuan said seriously: "The King of Sichuan will definitely intervene in this matter, and the Sichuan people will definitely come to the door. Senior brother, you must prepare early!"

"Prepare? Prepare for what? Do you want me to run away? I didn't do it, so why should I run? I'm not going anywhere, I'm just waiting at home, and I want to see who dares to come and accuse me!" Huangfu Xiu Tai said in a deep voice, and then sat down.

"If the Sichuan people come with a large group of troops, what will happen to senior brother? Once senior brother and the Sichuan army come into battle and there are casualties, there will be no room for recovery. The lessons learned by Guang Han are still fresh in his mind. Is it possible that senior brother is so fast? Just forget it?”

Huangfu Xiutai had a cold war. When it comes to fighting alone, he is not afraid of anyone now, but the Sichuan army has hundreds of thousands of troops. Even a master like Guang Hanting died tragically in the rebel army, let alone himself?

He pondered for a while and asked: "Junior sister, is it true that my brother really wants to take this scapegoat and run away for no reason?"

Jin Xuan shook his head and said: "There is still a way, ask His Highness Feng Wang for help!"

Huangfu Xiutai was startled and said in surprise: "Looking for the Wind King?"

"That's right! The last time we discussed the candidate for the new Holy King in the palace, Feng Wang was obviously on the side of our senior brother. Now that such a big thing has happened, only Feng Wang can help senior brother, and only Feng Ren can resist Sichuan. People!" Jin Xuan said seriously.

"But, will Tang Yin really help me?" In the eyes of others, he and Tang Yin were in the same boat, but in his own mind, Tang Yin didn't like him, and was full of hostility. Of course, he The same is true for Tang Yin.

Jin Xuan said slowly: "I can't control that much now. I can only treat a dead horse as a living doctor! If the Feng King is willing to help you this time, senior brother will be able to overcome this difficulty. If the Feng King is unwilling to help senior brother, we... …Let’s take a long-term view!”

"Okay! I listen to you, junior sister!" Now Huangfu Xiutai had no idea. He was going to do whatever Jin Xuan said. He asked: "Junior sister, should I go find Tang Yin now?"

Jin Xuan rolled his eyes at him and shook his head helplessly. Now you are asking for help from others, and you still call them by their first names. As a senior brother, you seem to be aloof and arrogant, but in fact, you don't understand the world at all.

She said: "It's not appropriate for senior brother to come forward. I will make this trip on behalf of senior brother!"

Huangfu Xiutai immediately smiled and said, "This is the best." If he was asked to ask Tang Yin for help in a low voice, he really didn't know how to ask.

Jin Xuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then walked out without saying anything.

Looking at Jin Xuan's back, Huangfu Xiutai reminded: "Junior sister, be careful."

"It's you, senior brother, who should be careful. Before I come back, you don't go anywhere. No matter who comes, you stay behind closed doors. If it doesn't work, you have to delay it as much as possible until I come back!" Jin Xuan turned around uneasily. warned.

"Junior sister, don't worry! Brother, I will listen to you!"

Jin Xuan did not dare to delay any longer, so he left Huangfu Xiutai's home and rode straight to Fengying where Tang Yin was staying. Jin Xuan's arrival was unlucky. When she arrived at Fengying, Tang Yin happened to be away and went to Youdian instead.

In the past few days, Tang Yin went to Youdian almost every day and stayed there for a whole day. He barely had food and accommodation there. Uninformed people thought that Tang Yin had the same problem as Guang Hanting, and he liked being in Youdian. He is practicing in seclusion!

Of course Tang Yin had his own reasons. The reason why he went to Youdian every day was just to see the man sealed in the glacier.

When Jin Xuan learned that Tang Yin was in Youdian, he immediately rushed over, but just at this time Tang Yin came back.

Seeing Tang Yin, Yin Lan first hurried forward to greet him and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, my subordinates found a secret room in Guang Hanting's palace and found a treasure in it!"

Tang Yin was not very interested in those rare treasures. He just nodded slightly and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he looked at Jin Xuan and said with a smile: "Elder Jin, why are you so free today and are you willing to come to our Feng Camp? "

Jin Xuan stepped forward, bowed, and said, "I came here this time to ask for something, and I hope His Highness is willing to help."

"Oh?" Tang Yin said with a smile: "Elder Jin, if you have anything to say, just tell me, there is no need to be polite to me!"
