Chapter 85 Facing the Clouds, Spring Blossoms
Zhao Wumian was a little surprised. You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, I didn’t expect that the first guy I beat up when I went up the mountain was a spy.

It was not easy for Guan Yunshu to look back in her posture. She could only glance downward with her peripheral vision. When she saw the two people, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. Although she was surprised, she was not surprised at who the spy was, so she was more likely to kill them.

But she didn't know if the spies were only the two below her, so she suppressed her murderous intent and decided to continue listening.

The two monks below were obviously not strong enough to sense the murderous intent. What's more, they couldn't guess that there were two people lying above their heads, and they thought they were safe in the secret room.

Zhenxing did not find any signs of someone breaking into the secret room. He hurriedly took out a text message from his sleeve, lit the stove, threw the text message directly into the stove and burned it. He said in a deep voice: "Ye Wancang just stuffed a letter for me in the old place. It seems that the uninvited guest was rescued by Chu Changdong."

The two men on the top were slightly shocked when they heard this. They didn't expect Ye Wancang to be so quick... No wonder these two men came back even though they had already finished the meeting for a while.

"That's nonsense." The person who was talking to Zhen Xing was an old man with a white beard. "Many disciples in the temple saw Guan Yunshu escorting him to see Dong Xuan."

"The letter said that according to Chu Changdong, he went to ask the master for mercy. I guess the master was reluctant to let him go on the spot because of the face of the Sword Sect and because what the man did was also beneficial to Xiao Xitian."

Hearing this, the two people lying on the ceiling couldn't help but look at each other.

Guan Yunshu gave him an approving look.

Zhao Wumian was wondering how unpopular Guan Yunshu was in Xiao Xitian. These two people didn't even suspect that he and Guan Yunshu were in the same group.

The two of them had their own thoughts. Zhen Xing continued to say to the old man, "Su Yanran's swordsmanship is not bad, but I have never heard of this person. He doesn't even dare to show his face. It's probably an alias. But he is obviously coming for us. If we let him do this, it will ruin our plans sooner or later."

The old man stroked his beard and narrowed his cloudy eyes slightly, "Do you know his whereabouts?"

Zhenxing shook his head slightly, "He was forced back by Ye Wancang's attack. He knew he was no match for him, so he might have already left the mountain... Chu Changdong had already left with injuries, and he had no status to continue staying in Xiaoxitian. He couldn't just stay in the prison again."

Zhao Wumian looked at Guan Yunshu again. He really didn't expect that he and Guan Yunshu were in the same group.
Guan Yunshu's face was flushed with an abnormal blush, and he looked at Zhao Wumian coldly, meaning 'Don't move!'

The space is so small, and Zhao Wumian turned his head and looked up... Isn't he just rubbing around in the clouds?

Guan Yunshu had already felt the extremely strange touch in front of her, 'from point to line' and then 'from line to surface'. She was extremely sensitive. If she let Zhao Wumian's head continue to shake, she would probably lose all strength and fall down.

But the old man said directly the next moment: "Today in the hall, Guan Yunshu mentioned that she had a friend who was going to go up the mountain... Maybe it was this person?"

Hearing this, Guan Yunshu's heart skipped a beat, but he was already prepared to take action.

If the truth is discovered, they will have to arrest both of them and torture them to extract a confession.

Zhenxing pondered for a moment before shaking his head calmly, "Ye Wancang mentioned in the letter that he had gone to ask the master, Chu Changdong did ask the master for mercy, and Su Yanran was indeed forced by Guan Yunshu to see the master... If he was a friend, why would Guan Yunshu bring him around the temple so openly?"

This was the thinking error caused by information asymmetry... Zhen Xing had no idea that Zhao Wumian and Guan Yunshu had to go straight through the temple in order to track down Ye Wancang in a hurry.

Zhao Wumian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Master Uncle Dongxuan was very helpful and should have understood what he meant.

"Are there any other clues?" The old man nodded slightly and continued to ask.

Zhen Xing recalled for a moment before saying, "The group of insects were beaten to a pulp by Su Yanran, and they didn't have the courage to go up the mountain again. But someone heard Taoist Ling Xu say that the sword technique he used was the 'Yun Yi Lou' in the 'Five Qi Sutra', which is the sword technique of Iron Rakshasa."

"Iron Rakshasa?" The old man was a little surprised. "Only the Iron Rakshasa couple knows the Five Qi Sutra in the martial arts world. But judging from their voices, they must be under 30 years old... When did the Iron Rakshasa couple accept disciples?"

"The Tie Luosha couple have been missing from the martial arts world for a long time. Perhaps they have retired from the world. It is normal for them to accept a disciple to pass on their martial arts." Zhenxing shook his head slightly.

Su Qingqi had said before that the Tie Luosha couple had been secretly protecting Luo Chaoyan. Few people in the court knew about this, let alone the martial arts world, so in their eyes it was just like retiring.

Zhen Xing looks rough, but he is actually very thoughtful... Unfortunately, he guessed wrong, and Zhao Wumian did not hide his identity in vain. "Why did the Iron Rakshasa couple interfere in the affairs of Xiao Xitian..." the old man muttered to himself.

Zhen Xing raised his hand slightly, "No matter how much you think, it's useless without evidence. If this matter is not as simple as Chu Changdong said, Master Xuansi might as well go to the Sword Sect branch to question him tomorrow morning, and use this to put pressure on him and force him to tell the whole story. Ye Wancang is a casual cultivator and dare not provoke the Sword Sect, but we are not afraid of them... Let's just seek justice for the guests of Xiao Xitian..."

...And if Chu Changdong didn't lie and Su Yanran didn't succeed, she might still try to assassinate Chu Changdong...Staying by his side would surely bring some benefits."

The old man named Xuan Si shook his head slightly. "It's not too late yet. I will go down the mountain to look for him later. If I wait until tomorrow morning, who knows what will happen."

"Thank you." Zhen Xing gave a half-hand salute. "If you really meet him, remember not to hold back. I fought him once before, and although I let him off, I could tell he still had some strength. Don't let yourself get caught in a trap."

Monk Xuansi smiled slightly and said, "I am not Taoist Lingxu."

Zhen Xing was obviously worried. After thinking for a while, he said, "There is another person following him. I guess it's a woman who doesn't know martial arts. She stays with him all the time. She is obviously very important to him. If we attack that woman directly, she will definitely reveal her flaws... This is his weak spot."

Zhao Wumian raised his eyebrows slightly.

The two of them finished discussing how to deal with Zhao Wumian in a few words, and then Xuan Si sighed softly, "Has there been any letter from the capital? Why haven't they sent an envoy to Xiaoxitian yet... We spread rumors ten days ago and fanned the flames for so long, so logically someone should have come the day before yesterday... If they had come earlier, that guy wouldn't have ruined everything."

Guan Yunshu looked at Zhao Wumian. His guess was actually correct.

Below, Zhen Xing shook his head slightly, "I have already sent a letter to the capital, I expect it will arrive soon."

"If he doesn't come soon, we might as well call on the disciples to put pressure on Dong Xuan." Monk Xuansi's face turned slightly cold.
"Recently, I have often conveyed the idea of ​​presenting the Pearl Relics Treasure Pagoda to the Crown Prince to my disciples in the morning class. Many disciples have already agreed with it. Dong Wen is not here, and Dong Xuan is weak. If the disciples put pressure on him together, he will definitely give in. Otherwise, there will be no leader. As long as Dong Xuan brings the Pearl Relics Treasure Pagoda into the capital, there will be no worries about not being able to snatch it."

"Lord Hanyu has strictly prohibited the world from knowing that the court has borrowed the Pearl Relics Pagoda. Even the envoys from the capital came secretly. Otherwise, they could have just issued a document announcing to the world that the court needs the Pearl Relics Pagoda. Why bother with this?"

Zhao Wumian and Guan Yunshu were both startled. 'Hanyu' was a clue.

Monk Xuansi said dissatisfiedly: "We have a martial arts master, are we afraid of being known by the world? Even if they come to rob, who has the courage and strength to do so?"

"Master Hanyu never revealed the reason, but I don't think it's that simple. I guess there are other intentions." Zhenxing shook his head slightly. He sat on the futon in silence for a moment, and then said in a deep voice:

"But if we delay, something bad will happen. Abbot Dongwen is not here. This is the emptiest time in the temple. When Abbot Dongwen returns, we will have no chance...

…Wait for two more days. If the envoy from the capital still hasn’t arrived, we will ask the disciples in the temple to sign a list and hand it over to the master. The three masters will put pressure on him at the same time. As his direct disciple, I will also persuade him more in the next few days. The chance of success should be quite high. When the time comes, I will ask him to secretly escort the pearl relic treasure tower, accompanied by three people, and leave a few people in the temple to keep it confidential. It should be able to conceal it for a while…

...Even if the news that we borrowed the Pearl Relics Treasure Tower is exposed, it is better than not getting it at all!"

Three masters? If we add Zhenxing, that means there are four spies... and that matches the number of cushions.

Monk Xuansi nodded slightly, "I don't know where Dongwen is right now, but after hearing the rumors about Xiaoxitian, I guess he will rush back to deal with it. We really can't delay any longer..."

Monk Xuansi was silent for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said no more.

He stood up, thought for a moment, and said, "As the saying goes, it's darkest under the lamp. Su Yanran may still be hiding in the back mountain. I will search the mountain first, and then go to Chu Changdong to ask for clarification. If there is no result, I will stay at the foot of the mountain for two days under the pretext of 'secretly protecting Chu Changdong', and then go up the mountain when the incident occurs."

Zhen Xing nodded slightly, "Be careful in everything, don't underestimate the enemy."

After saying that, the two of them parted ways, going out through the two corridors in front and back of the lobby respectively.

When the footsteps of the two gradually faded away, Zhao Wumian gave Guan Yunshu another look in case the two had not gone far, meaning 'Zhen Xing would not be suspicious if I kill Xuan Si at this moment.'
