The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 111 Gu Fangchen, it’s you again!!!
[Not a single leaf gets on you (Passive)]

[Explanation: You are always at ease and effortless. When the 'screening' action is triggered, if you are the most suspicious, you will automatically be demoted one level; if not, your chances of being suspected will be greatly reduced.]

The moment Ning Songjun became suspicious of Gu Fangchen, it triggered the "investigation" behavior.

For Ning Songjun, his sword was lost, and the nephew in front of him, who had been drinking and chatting with him for who knows how long, was naturally the first suspect.

After all, when Gu Fangchen first brought the wine over, it felt like he was being too attentive for no reason and was either a traitor or a thief.

But Gu Fangchen used the excuse that he was just here to ask for a magical weapon and successfully covered up the past...

However, Ning Songjun frowned and changed his mind.

Doesn’t he know what level his nephew is at?

How could he steal his sword without anyone noticing when they were face to face?

Besides, what’s the point of Gu Fangchen stealing his sword?

There is absolutely no motive or reason!

It shouldn't be Gu Fangchen...

Ning Songjun shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"My sword is missing."

Gu Fangchen, under the influence of alcohol, looked at him blankly:
"what?"

He reflected, came over, patted Ning Songjun's shoulder, and sighed:
"Uncle, this joke is not funny at all. Go back and practice it again."

Ning Songjun: "..."

Gu Fangchen said in surprise:
"Could this be true? This is too strange... Who would suddenly come and steal your sword?"

Ning Songjun didn't say anything, his face was expressionless and his eyes were serious.

Being able to steal his sword in an instant and without him noticing it at all, this person's cultivation was either far higher than his, or... there was something special about the way this person practiced.

As for the former, if there is still a saint in the world, how could he not know it?
So it can only be the latter.

As for stealing his sword, what was the purpose...

Jiange was not unaware of the recent unusual movements of the seven sects, and instead wanted to take advantage of this to catch them all in one fell swoop.

"Ah."

Ning Songjun sneered in his heart.

If they thought that stealing his sword would seriously damage his strength.

That would be a big mistake!
He uses the Tao as his sword, not the sword as the Tao.

This bunch of chicken thieves and dog thieves are as ignorant as insects!
However, it was also his fault that he didn't kill them all at the beginning, which led to them having such foolish thoughts.

Gu Fangchen glanced at him from the side and confirmed that he was not only not worried about the missing sword, but was instead aroused to kill.

If the people from the Seven Sects knew what Ning Songjun was thinking at this moment, they would definitely cry out in injustice. Their plan was far more meticulous than this!
The entire plan was aimed at Ning Songjun's Dao heart. Using his sword was just a means, not an end.

But now, after being splashed with a basin of dirty water by Gu Fangchen, mud naturally fell into his crotch and he couldn't wash it off even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

Ning Songjun shook his head:

"I know who it is. Don't worry. Go to your grandfather first and go into the forbidden area with Xu Yuexiu as usual. Don't worry about anything else."

In his opinion, the gathering of these seven sects was still just a trivial matter.

Even if the sky falls, he will hold it up.

All matters within the sect, big or small, remain as usual, which is the demeanor of the largest sect in the southwest.

Gu Fangchen nodded and watched Ning Songjun turn into a stream of light and leave, his eyes flashing.

Ning Songjun's problem of Taoism has been half solved.

A sword master whose Tao heart is damaged may no longer be a sword master, but Ning Songjun, without the "Lianxing" sword, is still a sword master.

The other half is the hidden danger of the "Lianxing" sword itself.

Because the Yin-Yang magnet has been worn into it, if the same method is encountered again, it will still be effective, so the problem must be solved from the root.

That is... the old swordsmith.

In the original plot, the old swordsmith was bewitched by the principle of righteousness and wanted to seek justice for his son who died in the Jiange civil strife. After the incident, he committed suicide.

And now, he can be asked to recast "Lianxing".

After all, Gu Fangchen is not very good at casting and smelting techniques.

At least it's not yet at the point where he can take action against a divine sword.

With Ning Songjun taking the lead, the "Rebellion of the Seven Sects" will basically be suppressed, but the Confucians will most likely take some cunning measures.

Therefore, although he unexpectedly received help from the "Four-phase Robbery Master", ahem, passive help is still help... but it is still not enough.

This is the reason why Gu Fangchen dawdled outside for a while and chose this time to come find Ning Songjun.

He needs the qualification to enter the forbidden area to complete the last step of breaking the deadlock.

Next is Gu Yuandao.

This guy is the one you don't need to worry about the most...

The misunderstandings of the seven sects were enough to prevent him from entering Donglong County and cause the two sides to turn against each other.

As for Juehui's verification...

Gu Fangchen curled the corners of his mouth, sat down and leisurely drank the remaining half glass of wine, then walked towards the central hall of Jiange.

Oh, he said that at the beginning.

The person who can deal with Juehui is in Huangtian City.

And that person was none other than Gu Yuandao himself!
Once this hypocrite who confuses cause and effect and even deceives himself is exposed, he will have nowhere to hide in the eyes of the true great monk Master Juehui.

And that feeling is what Gu Yuandao hates and fears the most in his life.

He thought that after enduring in the gutter for more than ten years, he could continue to wear the glamorous human skin.

But when the true inner thoughts are revealed, that is when Gu Yuandao's defense is broken.

……

"Damn it...shouldn't they be waiting in secret? Why would they suddenly come out and say this at a time like this?!"

Gu Yuandao's face changed drastically as he retreated.

This situation was too sudden, too strange, but at the same time, it felt a little familiar...

"...Someone made them think that my motives were not pure, so they came to test me!"

Gu Yuandao gritted his teeth and roared in his heart:

"Gu Fangchen, it's you again!!!"

When Yang Qing and others saw that Gu Yuandao had turned hostile, they immediately concluded that there was indeed something wrong with Gu Yuandao.

Otherwise, why was it that when there was clearly no one around and they were so cautious, Gu Yuandao not only refuted them as nonsense but was even so aggressive as to try to force his way in?
Even if his purpose was to mediate the conflict, he should not have stood so absolutely against them from the beginning.

unless……

As Gu Fangchen said, he had already revealed all their goals to the "Military Saint" Gu Yuye and stood on the side of Jiange.

Yang Qing and others acted decisively and decided to stop Gu Yuandao outside Donglong County at all costs and not let him destroy the "Dragon and Snake Rising from Land" formation.

Before Juehui showed up, he transmitted his voice:

"Do you need my help?"

Gu Yuandao retreated a hundred feet and threw out a landscape painting to stop the men. He paused, shook his head, and said solemnly:
"No need, thank you for your kindness, Master. These people are really inexplicable and unreasonable..."

"I think they have probably been bewitched by the demonic cult and have lost their minds."

Juehui took another look at the several masters from the seven sects who were trapped in the landscape scroll.

He put his hands together, looked at Gu Yuandao, and continued in a deep voice:

"But... I can tell they're not lying."

Master Juehui of Galan Temple has cultivated the supernatural power of "telepathy", which allows him to hear the voice of others and distinguish between truth and falsehood.
