The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 864 Yuchan Zhenren's Speculation

In the Liang Wang Mansion, Yuchan Zhenren, who had escaped from the cave heaven "Lian Mie Lianxu", was watching the briefing of what happened during his absence from Xuantian, and casually asked Liang Wang Ming Hongyi next to him:

"Any news about the people sent out to look for 'Spirit Cloud'?"

Because his best friend from childhood had passed away, King Liang was in a very bad mood at the moment. He no longer respected "Master Yuchan" as before and answered directly: "How could there be news so soon...

"And Elder Yue from the 'Destroying the Law Sect' also said that Lingyun and Xu Qianlin had both died in the secret realm."

Master Yuchan put down the information and sneered, "Oh, do you really believe what Yue Guiyi said? As far as I know, Lingyun is the 'Blood Son' of Master Mozong. If there was anyone in the secret realm who could take him down, it must have been Yue Guiyi!

"So, the 'Heavenly River Goddess Picture' is either in Lingyun's hands or in the hands of the man named Yue."

King Liang frowned when he heard this: "Teacher, do you think that the theft at Mengxi Garden a few days ago was caused by Mr. Lingyun stealing from the garden?"

"This possibility is very high... because the means to eliminate various causal connections and prevent me from making deductions came from the Blood Demon Sect." Master Yuchan nodded, then picked up the "Piece of Yaochi Chess" that King Liang brought back from the secret realm and played with it for a while, then shook his head slightly and said, "I knew that your great-grandfather would not put such a treasure in the outer 'Sealed Secret Realm'. Its core must be in the last and most critical seal."

As he said this, he threw the "Yaochi chess fragment" back to King Liang and continued, "This thing can only be used as a temporary life-saving secret treasure, and it may not be safe."

Liang Wang thought that the most critical seal mentioned by Master Yuchan was the fourth secret realm, so he was not disappointed. After putting away the chessboard named "Fragments", he asked, "Teacher, since you think the 'Sky River Goddess Picture' is important and needs to be retrieved, why don't you just look for Lingyun? Why do you still need to look for Xu Qianlin and Hu Cheng?"

"Although Xu Qianlin is only a member of the Xu family's side branch, since he is missing, shouldn't you express your gratitude? Moreover, I read his fortune and got the word 'witch'... He was most likely abducted by your missing concubine!"

Master Yuchan deliberately omitted Hu Cheng and only mentioned the reason for looking for Xu Qianlin.

Of course, the bottom line is that Master Yuchan was unable to rule out the suspicion of these two people and felt that they might also be the ones who stole the "Tianhe Goddess Picture".

Because just as Mr. Lingyun said, there were only traces of magic and Western spells in "Mengxi Garden" that night, which was also confirmed by Master Yuchan.

So apart from Lingyun, Concubine Yan is the most suspicious... Prince Liang doesn't know about her trying to win over the supernatural powers in the palace, but he, as her master, knows it very well.

If the Taisi Witch was not harmful to his practice, he would have wanted to experience it.

Hu Cheng... No, it was Yu Cheng who "lost control" because of something that witch did.

While Master Yuchan was thinking secretly, upon hearing the words "witch" and "concubine Yan", King Liang's face changed and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Teacher, since you know that my concubine is the 'Hui Yue' or 'Xi Ri' wizard from Taixi, why did you challenge Yue Guiyi on the pretext that she was abducted by the Mie Fa Sect?

"You know, she did leave me, but she also said goodbye to me before she left."

By doing this, don't I become a cuckold?

Although he didn't say the last sentence out loud, how could Yuchan Zhenren not see it? She couldn't help but sneer in her heart: Don't you have enough green hats? From what I know, there are no less than twenty.

But Master Yuchan looked at his disciple's ugly face and did not provoke him directly. He just patted him on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "Yue Guiyi asked for your concubine in the secret realm. Although not many people know about this, there are still many people. It will spread sooner or later." "Once people know that Yan Ruyu has left you, even if I don't use this excuse to challenge you, rumors are inevitable.

"It would be better for me to use the duel as an opportunity to make a bet with the Mie Fa Sect, and let Yue Guiyi meet a few of my demands after losing to me. Then I can propose a condition of 'let him kill Concubine Yan with his own hands', which will be a better way to shut up Youyou."

I don’t know whether these words worked, or whether there was some hidden magic in the patting action, but in any case, King Liang finally stopped worrying about this matter.

After chatting with Master Yuchan for a while, he said goodbye and left the room to arrange people to find the "strange mailbox" and recruit new worshippers.

As for the person the master asked him to find? He also needs a capable subordinate!
After he left, Master Yuchan put down the information in his hand and said to a corner of the room, "Did you find anything?"

And there, a figure walked out of the thin air. It was Wu Hao, the "Golden Palace Minister" who had just returned to Beijing urgently from the "Daoguan Office" not long ago.

The man called out "Brother" and bowed respectfully to Master Yuchan, then responded, "Because the 'Enlightened Beast' attacked suddenly, King Liang's men were eager to escape, and not many people saw the details of the 'doll' on Yu Cheng... But after piecing together the details, we can still restore the appearance of the doll. The preliminary judgment is that it should be Master Zhou Sheng of the 'Tiangong Pavilion'.

"And the people we planted in the 'Tiangong Pavilion' also sent back news that Master Zhou Sheng was indeed not in the pavilion a few days ago, and he went into seclusion as soon as he came back."

"Zhou Sheng? The madman who relies on refining himself into a magic weapon to prolong his life? When did he get involved with Yu Cheng..." Master Yuchan thought about it in his mind, but still had no clue, so he had to change the subject and asked, "What actions has the emperor taken?"

Wu Hao was prepared and answered without thinking: "The emperor instigated Shenmu to help the Qiu brothers sue the Yu family's eldest son Yu Chao for conspiring with the Taixi witch to control the brothers to kill each other and seize his family's property...

"Although the head of the Yu family has distanced himself from the Yu Dynasty, the emperor still hinted to the Prince of Xiang that the Yu family should change a new head, or let Madam Yu directly take charge of the affairs of the Yu family."

"Sure enough, the emperor knows that Yu Cheng has been replaced, but he probably doesn't know that Madam Yu is also under our control." After letting out a sigh, Master Yuchan continued to ask, "What else?"

“Also, the reason why the Qiu brothers were able to escape the control of the witch was all thanks to Zhao Chen, who was suspected to be the prince. So the emperor used this as an excuse to reward many of Zhao Chen’s friends.

"Among them, Zheng Qingyan was named 'Lord of Lishui'." Wu Hao replied.

Zhao Chen? Master Yuchan chewed on this name, slightly bent his fingers, and began to calculate.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh and said, "Zhao Chen is most likely just a cover, the emperor may want to use him to win over the forces behind him.

"For example, the Zheng family, the Danding Immortal Sect...

"Of course, the more likely reason is that Zhao Chen is really the descendant of Joyful Bodhisattva, and that Bodhisattva is also the emperor's man. Zhao Chen was originally a subordinate arranged by the emperor to disrupt the public."

At this point, his mind couldn't help but emerge with the Bodhisattva Miaoyin who had trapped him in the "Silent Lotus Ruins" cave, causing his arrangements in the capital to be almost destroyed and the "Tianhe Goddess Picture" to be lost.

In other words, the traitor of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, Zhang Jingyi!
