When Xie Lige appeared at the Black Wood Cliff..,
There was already a large group of people on the cliff.
Everyone stood at the edge of the cliff obediently and watched as the white-haired general walked up step by step.
Tong Baixiong silently moved to the back,
He hoped that someone could block his figure,
Not to be seen by Xie Lige. It was a pity that his figure was too strong,
Even two people might not be able to hide him. His action of hiding at the back looked very obvious and was even more conspicuous.
Xie Lige saw him at a glance.
"You?"
Xie Lige remembered that this person was among the few people that his son had led out yesterday. His position was closer to the front,
He was obviously a trusted subordinate. When he saw the big man hiding in the crowd, he almost wrote the words "You didn't see me" on his head.
He raised his eyebrows.
"Come out."
He chuckled softly,
He said to Tong Baixiong.
The other Sun Moon sect members looked at Tong Baixiong. The two sect members who were caught at the beginning looked at each other,
They silently moved away,
Revealing Tong Baixiong behind him with a horrified expression.
Tong Baixiong exclaimed,
He did not seem to have thought that he would be exposed so quickly.
He turned his head to look at the others,
Everyone who looked at him turned their gazes away. They had no sense of brotherhood,
Not only that, the white-haired general opposite them was still pressing on,
Some people who did not avoid him began to use their eyes to urge Tong Baixiong to quickly tell Xie Lige what he wanted to know.
There was only one meaning in their gazes.
"Don't drag us into this!"
Obviously..,
They still abandoned their friendship at the critical moment of life and death.
Tong Baixiong glared back fiercely with his tiger eyes,
He, Lao Xiong, couldn't beat this person, but he couldn't beat a bunch of weaklings like you?
What a joke..,
If you continue to talk nonsense to him, do you believe that he will directly come to your door to practice next time?
....
Fine, fine, fine..,
You can fight, you're awesome.
All the sect members rolled their eyes in unison.
Tong Baixiong snorted coldly. His imposing manner had suppressed everyone. After he was satisfied, his gaze rested on Xie Lige for a while before he spoke unwillingly.
Actually, some of the old people knew about Afc Invincible. Ren We Bank's daughter was the Holy Maiden of the Church. Only the newcomers did not know.
Tong Baixiong couldn't say it directly in front of so many people. He was afraid that if he said it, he would be beaten to death by Afc Invincible that night. After all, he had seen how Afc Invincible doted on Ren Yingying like his daughter. Therefore, he said, "Supreme Sect Master, let's talk about this in another place."
"There are too many people."
He was careless, but his heart wasn't.
Big Guy wasn't stupid.
Xie Lige raised his eyebrows. After a while, he nodded in agreement.
Tong Baixiong heaved a sigh of relief and retreated into the crowd.
"Someone come."
Xie Lige turned his head and shouted. A soldier in armor came out from behind and placed a stool on the ground. Then, like a magic trick, he took out a teapot and teacups. After that, he stood behind Xie Lige, ready for battle.
The whole series of actions was an eye-opener for everyone.
Sitting on a chair, Xie Lige nodded his chin and signaled for them to speak one by one.
"Tell me, who bullied Apis?"
"Ren We Bank?"
The sect members looked at each other and then fell silent.
Some of the newcomers didn't know, but they knew the relationship between the old and new Sect Master. Now that they were asked to speak directly, it was difficult for them to do so. They could only signal Xie Lige with their eyes.
"Okay." Xie Lige received the signal and waved his hand. "I got it."
He had an idea in his heart.
He stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Tong Baixiong, who was not far away. Seeing the latter's panicked eyes, he revealed a kind smile.
"Hall Master Tong, let's go together."
In Tong Baixiong's eyes, the man's white teeth were shining with a cold light. It was as if he could bite his neck in the next second and take his life. This sentence also became a death sentence.
But he couldn't refuse.
Tong Baixiong raised his face, which was uglier than crying, and said courageously, "Okay."
Then, he followed Xie Lige to the small wooden house.
Along the way, Tong Baixiong had a rare moment of conscience. He explained to his fellow disciples why they were afraid and unwilling to talk about the problem. One of the reasons was that their Holy Maiden had a very high position in the Cult Leader's heart.
"Everyone is afraid of being implicated."
Tong Baixiong scratched the back of his head.
"Ren Yingying, right?"
Xie Lige listened to Tong Baixiong's explanation. After a while, he mentioned a name and slowly walked inside. Yang Lianting had mentioned this girl in front of him before. Her father seemed to be Ren We Bank.
Xie Lige was surprised to find that his son was very kind. For a moment, he felt a bit strange.
Tong Baixiong saw that there was no one around and thought that Xie Lige wanted to ask him about the Sect Master. He immediately began to tell the truth.
From the beginning, he brought that child into the Sun Moon Cult from somewhere else. Then, she became a Hall Master. Then, she became a person that the previous Sect Master was afraid of. Then, she killed Ren We Bank and became the new Sect Master.
In all his words, he mentioned three people.
"Ren We Bank, Ren Yingying, and Ling Huchong."
Even Yang Lianting wasn't listed in Tong Baixiong's list.
Xie Lige raised his doubts.
Unexpectedly, Tong Baixiong laughed heartily and said, "The people I mentioned are all powerful martial artists. Even if they don't practice martial arts, they are related to the Sun Moon Cult. Yang Lianting only knows how to farm all day long. How could he know about these people? You must have only heard about them from him."
"The Sect Master wanted him to see those people."
Everyone had been given a death order by the Sect Master. No matter what, they had to work hard to show their upright side in front of Yang Lianting. In any case, they couldn't reveal their usual violent and murderous side. Even the Saintess Ren Yingying had restrained herself a lot. This also led to Yang Lianting having a good impression of everyone.
Especially when he mentioned them to Xie Lige, he praised them a lot.
"For example, Big Brother Tong is very loyal. Usually, when he goes down the mountain, it is inconvenient for him to go down the mountain with him."
"Yingying's personality is like a little girl. She is shy by nature, but she is actually very nice."
"Hall Master Mu blah blah blah …"
Xie Lige fell silent when he recalled that scene. He seriously considered why he believed the words of such a naive girl.
Suddenly, he felt extremely afraid.
After thinking about it for a while, he understood his son's good intentions.
He wanted to show the best side of the world in front of a certain person.
He didn't expect his son to be so romantic.
"Then is Ren We Bank dead?" Xie Lige casually asked.
Tong Baixiong didn't expect him to ask this question. He reflexively scratched his head and thought back to that time. He didn't know whether he should say it or not. After thinking for a while, he suggested, "Why don't you ask the Sect Master first?"
"Wouldn't it be better for him to answer this question?"
His tone was very sincere.
It seemed to be the case.
Xie Lige thought for a while and felt that Tong Baixiong's words made sense. He decided to ask his son when he went back. Then, he asked the other two young men again.
"The Holy Maiden went out to travel, but the disciples said that they saw the Holy Maiden and that Ling Huchong entangled together. They asked us, the Hall Masters, to report this to the Sect Master."
This was the news he received yesterday.
Ren Yingying went down the mountain half a month ago. At that time, everyone knew that the relationship between her and that so-called Ling Huchong was unclear. They wanted to break it off, but they didn't expect the Sect Master to agree. If it were up to Lao Xiong, he definitely wouldn't agree. Just by looking at that Ling Huchong, he knew that the Holy Maiden wasn't a good person. For that man, the Holy Maiden had contradicted the Sect Master countless times.
However, this wasn't something he should say.
Tong Baixiong glanced at the white-haired general with noble facial features who seemed unapproachable. He wisely didn't say anything.
Xie Lige had already sensed his gaze.
It was obvious that Tong Baixiong's concealment was too perfunctory.
Other things aside, Ren We Bank's whereabouts were strange. Ren Yingying was still so unrestrained in the Sect. She went out to entangle with the disciples of the enemy Sect. This little girl's behavior was too excessive.
In addition, he had been away for a long time. He didn't know what kind of trouble the little Emperor in the Capital had caused him.
This series of events gave Xie Lige a headache. He rubbed his temples.
He looked at the well-behaved Tong Baixiong and thought for a while. Then, he said, "After a while, Apis will follow me to the Capital."
The mountain path wasn't far, so they quickly walked out.
Xie Lige walked in front, followed by Tong Baixiong. When he heard this, his first reaction was to open his eyes wide. "What?"
"My child won't accompany me to the Capital?"
"But the Sect …" There were still many things to do.
Tong Baixiong wanted to say something. After all, as the head of the Sect, he couldn't leave for too long. Those righteous sects were eyeing the Devil Sect covetously.
Xie Lige had already made arrangements for this.
"Don't I have you guys?
During this time, you guys take over the Sect's affairs. I'll stay for about ten days. I'm sure you'll give me a satisfactory answer. "
"Isn't that right?"
Xie Lige chuckled.
Tong Baixiong shuddered at this chuckle. When he heard Xie Lige's question, even though he wanted to cry, he still nodded fearfully and said, "Okay."
Xie Lige was satisfied.
He let him leave.
Six days later, a man and a woman appeared at the foot of Black Wood Cliff. The woman was flirtatious and the man was righteous. It was Ren Yingying and Ling Huchong.
Ren Yingying looked up at the Sun Moon Sect. The people there made her feel complicated. They were clearly the enemies who had killed her father, but they doted on her so much. She bit her lip when she thought of her goal this time.
"Yingying?" Ling Huchong asked worriedly.
From the moment they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Ren Yingying looked like she had a lot on her mind. This made Ling Huchong, who was watching from the side, very worried. Just now, Ren Yingying had almost stepped on nothing.
Fortunately, Ling Huchong had been watching her for a long time. With a twist of his hand, Ren Yingying was forcibly pulled back.
Ren Yingying looked back at the unfathomable cliff behind her and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. However, she quickly adjusted her state of mind and recovered her original smile. She turned to Ling Huchong and said, "It's okay, let's go up first."
Ling Huchong couldn't say anything. He sighed.
"Don't force yourself."
The two of them reached the mountain.
As soon as they entered the cliff, Ren Yingying was the first to notice that something was wrong. The entire Sun Moon Cult had undergone a complete change. The original bandit aura of the cult members had changed. It was as if someone had forcibly turned them back. There were even a lot of people on the cliff that Bu Fang recognized. They were all veterans of the battlefield.
