Chapter 84
Zhu Xuanji snorted coldly: "You guys are suspecting me first!"
"I used my Golden Eyes to monitor, penetrating the cave and the earth; how could mere flames block my eyes?"
"I saw that the old ape had practiced a demon technique, which was quite profound, but it never used it. It would rather sacrifice its own life than protect its master."
"It is truly affectionate and righteous!"
"If it were on us humans, how many could do this?"
"I was moved by this, so I couldn't bear to let it die, so I performed treatment."
Speaking of this, Zhu Xuanji's tone deepened: "But precisely because I personally treated it, not only did I observe with Golden Eyes, but I also used magic power to penetrate its body. Therefore, I am absolutely certain that apart from severe injuries, everything else about the old ape is normal, and there is absolutely no shadow demon cultivator hiding inside!"
Seeing Zhu Xuanji's firm words, everyone couldn't help but fall silent again.
If this is true, then there are no more doubts.
The greater possibility is that someone secretly let the shadow demon cultivator go early.
Fei Si gradually frowned; he opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again.
The Zhou family ancestor also frowned, but continued to ask: "Lord Zhu, I dare to ask again, are you sure it is foolproof?"
"In this world, is there no other spell or supernatural power that can hide from your Golden Eyes and the dual investigation of magic power?"
Zhu Xuanji sneered: "If you say so, it's meaningless."
"Who can ensure it is foolproof?"
"In this world, there are countless talents, infinite geniuses, and countless spells, supernatural powers, and magic treasures; how can we know them all?"
"I can only tell you that I have mastered the Golden Eyes talent, which is close to a supernatural power. I have joined the Divine Catcher Division for more than ten years and have only met three Golden Core cultivators who have resisted my Golden Eyes insight. Below Golden Core, no living thing has ever escaped my eyes."
Everyone fell silent again.
Zhu Xuanji wanted to completely shake off his own doubts, so he proposed: "Since someone doesn't trust me, it doesn't matter. Now let's go find that old ape and let everyone examine it personally, how about that?"
"That makes sense!" Chi Dun nodded.
"All right." The Zhou family ancestor also agreed.
Fei Si's heart skipped a beat.
He thought of Unlike Ning Zhuo again.
After this, Unlike Ning Zhuo took the initiative to propose going to persuade Yuan Er to surrender, threatening and luring Yuan Er to kill the old ape.
I don't know what stage it has reached now?
Thinking that Unlike Ning Zhuo still had his token, Fei Si felt anxious.
He was calm on the surface: "I also have doubts about this matter, so it's good to witness it with my own eyes."
"In this way, Chi Dun, you continue to preside over the situation here and lead the remaining Golden Core cultivators to continue searching. The ground may hide people, so you must not let it go easily!"
Fei Si also invited the Zhou family ancestor and Zhu Xuanji, along with himself, to check Yuan Dasheng.
Chi Dun was dissatisfied: "Why am I staying here? You should be responsible for this!"
Fei Si said only one sentence to make him listen: "The City Lord appointed me to be responsible for the Fire Persimmon Festival; are you not listening to my deployment?"
Chi Dun snorted coldly and could only obey.
The three Golden Cores flew to the Monkey Head Gang station together.
Yuan Er was still kneeling on the ground before the bed, his expression dazed, his gaze dull.
Suddenly, the three Golden Cores descended from the sky, pierced through the roof, and looked down at him from above.
Yuan Er was startled and shivered.
"Where is your old monkey?" Zhu Xuanji scanned the backyard with his divine sense, and there was an ominous premonition in his heart.
Yuan Er's face turned pale, and he burst into tears: "Dead. My Monkey Uncle is dead!"
Zhu Xuanji's eyes glowed with gold, and he asked sternly: "I gave you the Late Autumn Life-Preserving Pill; how could that old ape die?"
Yuan Er's body shook like a sieve, not daring to hide anything, and he spat out everything tremblingly.
After listening, Zhu Xuanji was so angry that his face turned pale, and he pointed at Yuan Er: "You ungrateful thing!"
He turned to look at Fei Si: "Good, good, you Fei Si. You gave me such a color; you are quite interesting."
Fei Si was already secretly happy in his heart: "I didn't expect Unlike Ning Zhuo, this kid, to move so fast; well done!"
He had already found his place, his heart was happy, so he narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Thank you, Lord Zhu, for the compliment."
"I am also thinking about Fire Persimmon City."
"After all, it is cruel to always use monkey pets to pick fire persimmons. The Three Sects' masters are compassionate; if it weren't for the Lava Immortal Palace he left behind, Fire Persimmon Mountain wouldn't be the blessed land it is today."
"As juniors, we must also deeply understand the spirit of the Three Sects' masters, let go of these monkeys, and fully use mechanical creations; this is for the sake of the common people, it is a compassionate heart, and it is even more of a virtuous policy."
Fei Si played dumb, pretending he couldn't hear Zhu Xuanji's sarcasm, and praised himself firmly.
Zhu Xuanji was so angry that his breathing was rapid, and his face turned from white to blue.
Fei Si felt even more comfortable in his heart.
This was not entirely a matter of face.
The confrontation between righteous cultivators could not be as direct and bloody as that of demon cultivators.
Therefore, these confrontations under the rules became a sign of judging the strength of cultivators.
Fame and profit, fame and profit; often having a reputation can bring real profit.
Fei Si was forced by Zhu Xuanji in public and had to open the formation; this weak performance would make many people tend to Zhu Xuanji in the future. This harmed Fei Si's authority and reduced his influence.
In essence, it was also reducing the influence of the City Lord's Mansion and the contemporary City Lord Meng Kui.
Zhu Xuanji came on behalf of the royal family and the Divine Catcher Division, and there was a game between him and the Meng Kui line.
If Fei Si didn't fight back, specifically fighting back legitimately within the game rules, it would make Meng Kui feel disappointed.
Now, he had pulled back a game, offset the previous negative impact, and let him breathe a sigh of relief.
The Zhou family ancestor on the side frowned and didn't want to participate in the infighting between Fei Si and Zhu Xuanji at all. As a third party, it was too early to make a choice now.
He wanted to solve the shadow demon cultivator matter more, so he said: "Since the old ape has been taken away, why are we still staying here?"
"Brother Fei, where is your envoy now?" The Zhou family ancestor asked Fei Si.
The Xiancheng formation greatly suppressed divine sense, but Fei Si had his own authority, so he immediately used the formation to expand his divine sense and sensed his own token.
"Follow me!" Fei Si took the lead and flew away from the Monkey Head Gang.
Zhu Xuanji and the Zhou family ancestor followed closely behind.
Three rays of light crossed the air and then fell to the Flying Disc Workshop.
Zhu Xuanji reached out and grabbed, and suddenly an invisible force lifted the roof, revealing Unlike Ning Zhuo and Chen Cha.
And the old ape that the three Golden Cores wanted to find was lying on the mechanical seat, its essence and blood had been drained, and it was about to be dismembered.
"Stop immediately!" The Zhou family ancestor shouted.
Unlike Ning Zhuo and Chen Cha were shocked and hurriedly paid respects.
The three Golden Core cultivators ignored them and directly released their divine sense to scan Yuan Dasheng's corpse comprehensively.
No traces of any demon cultivator hiding were found.
"It did practice demon techniques, and it seems quite good." The Zhou family ancestor said.
Zhu Xuanji confirmed his previous monitoring results again, looked at the old ape's corpse with regret, and then cast his gaze on Unlike Ning Zhuo: "You kid, you have a good tongue. Yuan Er is also a fool, easily moved by you."
Unlike Ning Zhuo took a deep breath and said nervously: "Lord Zhu, please see clearly. My cooperation with Yuan Er is a win-win! I want to make money, and Yuan Er wants to keep his position as gang leader."
"Please forgive me for being bold, Lord; you are affectionate and righteous, and helped the old ape. But to it, is it really a good thing? With its loyalty to its master, it would rather not drag its master down, right?"
"Hmph, sharp-tongued!" Zhu Xuanji's perception of Unlike Ning Zhuo dropped significantly.
Fei Si on the side stroked his beard, appreciating Unlike Ning Zhuo more and more.
Finding no suspicious points, the three Golden Cores flew away immediately.
Fei Si rushed back to the fire persimmon forest, but Zhu Xuanji paused halfway.
He frowned, thinking hard: "I always feel that something is not quite right!"
