Chapter 1242: Chapter 1242: The Great Elder Arrives
Fu Xiyan nodded and turned to leave.
After Fu Xiyan went out, the Great Elder looked at the three and asked, “What exactly is going on? How co you were assassinated for no apparent reason?”
Yu Shishi was about to speak when Ling Zhiyu interrupted, “Shouldn’t the Great Elder be at the Trial Tower? How co you’re here at the Law Enforcent Hall?”
The Great Elder paused for a mont at this question, then smiled, “Isn’t it that soone saw an Immortal dical Alliance disciple being assassinated and reported it to , so I ca to check it out.”
Ling Zhiyu fixed her gaze on the Great Elder and continued, “The Great Elder was in the Observation Room, and I don’t know who could have reported it to you.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Shishi and Xiao Liang were sowhat confused, glancing at Ling Zhiyu but dared not speak up.
The smile on the Great Elder’s face vanished, his expression slightly darkening as he looked at Ling Zhiyu, “Ling Zhiyu, does your heart not rest if you don’t pick on for a day?”
“I ca with good intentions to see you, did I see incorrectly?”
“What do you an by that? So, you an I ca wrongly.”
As the Great Elder spoke, a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.
Ling Zhiyu remained unperturbed, saying, “I sent out rescue ssages to Big Senior Brother and the Master-Uncle imdiately; they should have been the ones to co.”
After listening, the Great Elder imdiately replied, “They didn’t receive any ssages at all.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Zhiyu withdrew her gaze from the Great Elder and stopped speaking.
The Great Elder, seeing that Ling Zhiyu was finally silent, imdiately turned to Xiao Liang and Yu Shishi, “You two, who will explain what happened?”
Xiao Liang and Yu Shishi exchanged a glance; in the end, Xiao Liang spoke up, “Great Elder, here’s what happened…”
Xiao Liang recounted the entire event to the Great Elder, almost identical to what he previously told Gu Zhiqi and Tang Yichen.
Except they omitted the part of eting Tang Yichen and Gu Zhiqi.
It’s not that they didn’t trust the Great Elder, but previously in the dical Trial Realm, Tang Yichen instructed them not to speak about anything that happened within the dical Trial Realm or ntion encountering him and Miss Gu there.
Earlier, when discussing the pursuit with Ling Zhiyu, they didn’t ntion eting Miss Gu and Tang Yichen.
After hearing this, the Great Elder pondered for several seconds, then looked at Xiao Liang and asked, “Does anyone else know about this?”
As soon as the Great Elder asked, Yu Shishi imdiately responded, “No, we feared bringing deadly trouble to others, so aside from us two, only you and Sister Zhiyu know.”
The Great Elder nodded after hearing this and then looked down slightly, saying, “This matter indeed mustn’t be known by too many, especially those in the dical Alliance.”
After saying these words, the Great Elder lowered his eyes slightly, as if in thought.
After about six or seven seconds, the Great Elder raised his gaze and looked at the three, saying, “Young Master Fu said there’s nothing more for you here; co back with to the dical Alliance. I can also investigate who sent those assassins against you.”
As soon as these words were spoken by the Great Elder, Ling Zhiyu was the first to refuse, “I still have things to do, I won’t be going back with the Great Elder.”
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder imdiately glared at Ling Zhiyu and said, “Suit yourself.” Then turned to Xiao Liang and Yu Shishi, “She’s not going back; you two co back with .”
