Chapter 843: Evil people need evil people to grind
"You are so greedy for money, didn't you bring a few treasures out?"
Zhou Mobai teased Chen Guanlou.
Actually, he was testing.
Chen Guanlou lowered his head, looking respectful as he said, "Junior was indeed greedy, but Junior cherishes his life more. Storybooks all say that people often die from greed. Thinking of the strangeness of the underground palace, if I took treasures, I'm afraid I would have the life to take them but not the life to spend them, so I held back and didn't dare to reach out."
These words were said with genuine emotion, without half a lie, only sincerity.
Sincerity is the most moving.
Cheng Lingzi immediately reached a conclusion. "I believe him!"
"You believe him just because you say so!" Zhou Mobai was unconvinced.
Cheng Lingzi had a fiery temper, not being polite to the one surnamed Zhou at all, directly slapping the one surnamed Zhou in the face.
Everyone only heard a crisp slapping sound, not seeing how Cheng Lingzi made the move at all.
"Speak politely!" Cheng Lingzi pointed at the one surnamed Zhou.
Zhou Mobai seemed to have suffered a great humiliation, his expression instantly distorted, becoming extremely ferocious!
Just at this moment, he couldn't stop coughing, feeling like his heart was about to be coughed out, too terrifying.
"Amitabha, Benefactor Zhou's illness still needs quiet recuperation. Benefactor Cheng, be tolerant, don't haggle with a patient."
The monk Liao Chen always stood out at critical moments to smooth things over, mixing mud.
Cheng Lingzi snorted coldly. "For your sake, I'll give him three points of color. If he dares to speak to me without size next time, don't recuperate, I'll personally send him on his last journey."
Chen Guanlou lowered his head, feeling like he was going crazy with laughter in his heart.
Never expected, never expected, the irritable maniac Zhou Mobai would have today. Sure enough, evil people need evil people to grind. In front of Senior Cheng Lingzi, no matter how arrogant the evil person was, they had to obediently lower their heads and admit defeat.
People said hit and hit, didn't even need to pick a time, and one by one they didn't dare to say a word to persuade. Anyway, Cheng Lingzi was once the concubine of the former former Emperor, the master of all the Grandmasters present.
The master hit the slave, hit and hit, who dared to say a word.
"Look at him, does he look like he obtained the opportunity?" Cheng Lingzi pointed at Chen Guanlou, asking all the Grandmasters present.
Master Huang of the Jixia Academy walked out slowly. "Little friend said he reached the small tomb chamber in the deepest part, only seeing a stone coffin of small size."
"Correct?"
"Then how did you come out?"
"I originally wanted to retreat along the original path. However, when I retreated, everything changed. The path I came from couldn't be found. I don't know how long I was trapped inside, anyway, when I finally came out, I only had one last breath left."
The monk Liao Chen was a good person, coming out to testify again. "The old monk also encountered a similar situation, exiting from the tomb chamber, unable to find the original path, everything changed. That underground palace was truly strange. Fortunately, the old monk's cultivation was okay, several times brushing past danger, and after retreating to the tunnel, I slowly found the way out."
Chen Guanlou silently gave the monk Liao Chen a like, secretly wiping sweat, scaring him to death. He just said it casually, didn't expect it to be true. Retreating along the original path, the original path couldn't be found, and the scenes all changed.
"Does everyone have anything else to ask?"
Wei Wubing pondered for a moment and asked, "Little Friend Chen didn't encounter a single person in the underground palace?"
"In a stone chamber full of bugs, I saw the corpse of Mr. Jin's disciple, which had already been gnawed by poisonous insects."
"Mr. Jin?"
"Mr. Jin Fulai, specializing in Feng Shui, numerology, Eight Trigrams, and Five Elements. This trip was able to enter the underground palace smoothly, all thanks to Mr. Jin's talisman breaking the underground palace's defense." Chen Guanlou introduced Mr. Jin's background lightly.
"Where is Mr. Jin now?"
"Junior doesn't know. After entering the underground palace, I never saw Mr. Jin again."
"Are you sure you saw the corpse of Mr. Jin's disciple."
"Absolutely true! Unless that was an illusion, and I didn't break away from the illusion at that time." Chen Guanlou said firmly. Before speaking, one must firmly believe that every sentence one says is true, only then can it appear sincere. Sincerity is the killer move.
"Where is Zhang Daohe?"
"As soon as I entered the underground palace, the person disappeared. Since then, I haven't seen him. If he is alive, he will eventually reveal his traces. If he is dead, it solves a disaster. I heard the Embroidered Uniform Guard is arresting cult bandits, maybe there will be gains."
"Are you all done asking." Cheng Lingzi was a bit impatient. "I observe this Little Friend Chen, who can be considered a decent person, not as cunning as you say. Looking at his cultivation, there is no earth-shaking change. The conclusion is, most of what Little Friend Chen said is true. Don't rely on your old age to bully the young."
"Thanks to Senior Cheng for maintaining." Chen Guanlou felt grateful in his heart. Cheng Lingzi was the real master, much stronger than this bunch of hypocrites.
"Worked so hard to go down to the underground palace, but didn't get anything, instead suffered a body of injuries, are you reconciled? Cough, cough..." Zhou Mobai was still not dead, still wanting to sow discord.
Chen Guanlou felt deep hatred in his heart upon hearing this.
Sooner or later, he would personally end the one surnamed Zhou.
"Not reconciled, what can I do? The fact is, the underground palace opportunity is obtained by those with affinity. Clearly, none of us are those with affinity, no one is those with affinity. Immortal methods have long considered everything, blocking everyone outside the opportunity."
"Without surprise, the opportunity should be in the main tomb chamber. However, so far, no one has been found to have entered the main tomb chamber."
"That underground palace is which imperial noble of the previous dynasty, it hasn't been figured out yet. They all say immortal methods, I see they are all used for defense, and there is no so-called opportunity."
"According to my guess, the key to the matter is still Zhang Daohe, and that Mr. Jin. Find Zhang Daohe, and you can solve all the secrets. Maybe finding Mr. Jin will also work."
"Zhang Daohe must die!"
"Before dying, he must explain everything clearly!"
Chen Guanlou listened silently to the Grandmasters discussing how to find Zhang Daohe, how to pry open Zhang Daohe's mouth, and silently said a sorrow for Zhang Daohe!
Brother Zhang, take care of yourself!
Facing the pursuit of all martial artists in the Jianghu, as well as the pursuit of Grandmasters, you must hide well. Absolutely, absolutely don't be found.
It's best to break through the Grandmaster realm in one breath, and then lead the cult bandits to a big battle, that scene would be wonderful.
He belonged to the type who loved to watch the excitement and didn't think it was too big.
The Grandmasters finished their discussion and left one after another.
"Senior Cheng..."
Chen Guanlou boldly stopped Cheng Lingzi.
"Dare to ask Senior, how is Zhong Susu?" Cheng Lingzi looked back at him, puzzled for a moment, and then suddenly realized. "Oh!? Almost forgot, you and Susu are old acquaintances! Susu was injured, and has now returned to the sect to go into seclusion to heal, and won't come out for several years."
Was she just injured?
The matter of killing fellow disciples wasn't discovered.
"Is her injury serious?"
"It's okay, she won't die! Anything else you want to ask?"
"No! Thanks to Senior!" Chen Guanlou understood the warning in the other party's eyes, how could he dare to continue asking. Hurriedly stopped the topic. ===== CHAPTER 844 =====
