Gu Changhuai’s expression was indifferent, and he did not speak.
"You suspect , but you have no evidence, so on the surface, you can only deal with perfunctorily. So things, you know, how could I not know?" Master Xiao said.
Gu Changhuai frowned.
He did indeed suspect Master Xiao.
At the sa ti, he really had no evidence.
Without evidence, everything is just empty talk. Trying to topple a Dao Court Canon with groundless cris is utterly naive.
What’s more, this Canon is from the Xiao family.
But what he never expected was that this Master Xiao, having hidden for so long, would suddenly act at this critical mont.
In Gu Changhuai’s expectations, even if this Xiao intended to act, it would only happen when the Dao Court had concrete evidence, surrounded from all sides, leaving him no way out.
Not now, when there’s only suspicion without a shred of evidence, and he just suddenly jumps out to betray.
Master Xiao seed to have guessed Gu Changhuai’s thoughts, and smiled lightly, "Make preparations ahead of ti; everything should be done early."
"In this Qianxue State Boundary, the Golden Core cultivation level is neither too big nor too small."
"If I really waited until you discovered the truth, with concrete evidence, and the Dao Court issued an arrest warrant, how would I escape then?"
"I am also a Canonical Official, very familiar with such matters."
"If one is to make a move, naturally, one must choose the most appropriate and most unexpected ti for you."
"Otherwise, with any hesitation, one can only sit and wait for death..."
Gu Changhuai frowned, "So, a few days ago, it was you who saved the Water Yama’s Golden Core?"
"You were also involved in the Rouge Boat affair."
"The mole of the Gui Water Sect in the Dao Court was you, and you were the one who kept covering for the Rouge Boat internally?"
Gu Changhuai’s words were sharp.
Master Xiao smiled without speaking.
Although he had turned against them, he wasn’t foolish enough to lay out in detail everything he had done.
Master Xia also looked coldly at Master Xiao, and asked, "Is this your decision, or the decision of the Xiao family?"
Master Xiao squinted and said, "This sumr Canonical Official, you should be clear about it in your heart. When a family gets big, there are all kinds of people, and the ones above can’t control them. My background is not bad, but not good, and without the protection of the Ancestor, if I don’t seek so ways and connections, there’s no way out for in this life."
"It’s just a pity that the Rouge Boat was destroyed, my affairs would be exposed sooner or later, so it would be better to make plans early and take preemptive action..."
Master Xia asked, "What do you want?"
"I don’t want much," Master Xiao smiled and said, "After all, we’ve been colleagues, there’s so friendship, I don’t want to make things difficult for you."
"As long as your Xia family gives a Yundu Decree of the Nine State, and the Gu family gives a Qianxue Command from the Qianxue State Boundary, with these two items, I can leave the Qianxue State Boundary and take the Cloud Ferry to leave Qian State, from then on, the mountains and rivers will be vast and we’ll never et again."
"I won’t be in your way, and you both won’t see , Xiao, again in this lifeti, which will be good for both you and ."
"I wonder what you two think?"
Gu Changhuai and Master Xia exchanged glances without speaking.
"Of course," Master Xiao said, "I know you two won’t agree so easily..."
He drew his longsword and held it against Ouyang Feng’s neck, "These two, one is a disciple of the Tai’a Sect, the other of the Hundred Flowers Sect, both of unusual identity. If you don’t agree, I will have to reluctantly send them to their end."
"At that ti, it would be hard for you to give an account to the Tai’a Sect and the Hundred Flowers Sect..."
At this point, Master Xiao regretted a little, "Originally, I wanted to capture that little ghost. He’s from the Taixu Gate and not unrelated to the Gu family. Surprisingly, you have a deep friendship with the cold-faced Supervisor Gu. That indeed surprised ."
"I wanted to capture him and use his life as leverage. I think Supervisor Gu wouldn’t back down easily. It’s just a pity, I didn’t expect this kid to be so slippery, not easy to catch at all..."
Master Xiao was a bit regretful.
Master Xia’s expression was like a frost, and Gu Changhuai also looked displeased.
And Mo Hua, who had been in concealnt, quietly revealed himself beside them.
Master Xiao looked deeply at Mo Hua and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, praised:
"What a wonderful Concealnt Technique, clearly only at the Foundation Establishnt cultivation, but even an experienced Golden Core Steward like almost couldn’t detect it. Indeed, to have a deep friendship with Supervisor Gu, even if it’s just a child, is no ordinary talent..."
Mo Hua kept a cold face, not excited by the complint from the smiling tiger.
After Master Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Gu Changhuai and Master Xia:
"Have you two considered? Give the Yundu Decree and Qianxue Command, or else I’ll kill these two heavenly pride disciples right now."
Master Xia frowned, glanced at Ouyang Feng, who was undaunted even with a longsword at his neck, and at Hua Qianqian, who despite being poisoned, pressed her lips and neither spoke nor begged for rcy, and sighed:
"Release these two children and I’ll give you the Yundu Decree."
"Master Xia is compassionate and generous," Master Xiao praised, then looked at Gu Changhuai.
Gu Changhuai also sighed: "I will give you the command too."
Saving people is urgent, especially with Ouyang Feng and Hua Qianqian’s special identities.
If they escape, they can be recaptured.
But if they die, there’s no saving them.
"But I don’t have it right now, I’ll have to order it to be handled after going out," Gu Changhuai said.
"No matter," Master Xiao said, "I can wait, but I advise you two not to have other intentions. You know, being a Supervisor myself, you can’t hide any tricks on the token from ."
