The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!
Chapter 36 Manipulating Zhen Zhibing
The next day, at Chongyang Palace.
"You want to see Zhibing?"
Ma Yu looked at Wang Jiuling in front of her with some surprise.
Wang Jiuling nodded.
"I still find this matter too strange, and I have some suspicions in my mind. I would like to meet with my senior brother in private."
Ma Yu thought about it.
All the current evidence points to Zhen Zhibing. Ma Yu is not without doubts, but as the head of the sect, he has to do this.
His current actions towards Zhen Zhibing are both an investigation and a protection.
However, given the current situation, it is too difficult to investigate.
"Okay! I promise you! But, are you really sure you want to?"
Wang Jiuling nodded. "Master, I currently only have suspicions, no evidence. It would be inappropriate to state this directly!"
Ma Yu waved her hand.
"Okay! Go ahead! I'll arrange it for you!"
After Wang Jiuling left, Ma Yu sighed.
How could Ma Yu not see through Wang Jiuling's thoughts? That kid clearly suspected the Quanzhen Sect, but he was afraid that it wouldn't be good to say it without evidence.
On the other side, Wang Jiuling finally met Zhen Zhibing.
At this moment, Zhen Zhibing was truly in dire straits. The sudden influx of evidence left him with no way to explain it.
He looked extremely haggard. When he heard the door open, he looked up and saw that it was Wang Jiuling.
"Junior brother..."
Wang Jiuling raised his hand, indicating that he didn't need to say anything more, then closed the door, walked over and sat down next to him.
"Senior brother! This incident is very bad for you. If it can't be investigated clearly, then you will have a stain on your record forever."
Zhen Zhibing became agitated.
"Junior brother! I'm truly innocent! How could I possibly betray my country and betray my country!"
Wang Jiuling gestured for him to calm down.
"Senior brother, I've come today to ask you a question."
"Although I believe it wasn't you, I still have doubts. If you tell me the truth, maybe I can help you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhen Zhibing immediately grabbed Wang Jiuling's hand excitedly. "Junior brother! As long as you help me, you can ask me anything!"
Wang Jiuling nodded, glanced at the doorway, then turned back and asked in a low voice:
"What exactly did you do last night around 3 AM?"
Upon being asked this question, Zhen Zhibing's eyes immediately flickered.
"I...I really went to get some fresh air and relax."
Wang Jiuling nodded, but his tone turned dangerous. "Senior brother, in my opinion, there's more to the story."
Zhen Zhibing gritted his teeth. "Junior brother, I didn't know you..."
But before he could finish speaking, Wang Jiuling took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to him.
Upon seeing this, Zhen Zhibing's expression immediately changed, for it was a portrait of Xiaolongnu, his own. "You...how could you know this?"
Wang Jiuling smiled and put the paper away again.
"Senior brother! When the sect leader sent people to search your residence, weren't you curious why they didn't find any of your drawings?"
"Because I sent Yang to take it ahead of time!"
Wang Jiuling looked solemnly at the shocked and embarrassed Zhen Zhibing, and spoke earnestly:
"If it weren't for Yang Guo and me, do you think you'd still be under house arrest here today, waiting for an investigation, once these things were discovered?"
"With multiple offenses combined, I'm afraid Uncle Qiu will be the first to chop you up!"
Zhen Zhibing was speechless; he stammered.
"Junior brother...Senior brother, I..."
Wang Jiuling sighed.
"Senior brother! I didn't just want to help you with this portrait!"
Rather, I know there's more to this than meets the eye, and I don't want you to be convicted because of this portrait, leaving me no chance to investigate!
"That's why I had Yang Guo take this ahead of time."
"I'm doing this for the sake of Quanzhen; I don't want some petty people to succeed in their schemes!"
At this point, Wang Jiuling patted Zhen Zhibing on the shoulder.
"So now I want to know if you are truly innocent. If you don't tell me the truth, then my investigation ends here!"
"You'd better pray that the sect leader and his team can find out the truth and clear your name!"
After saying that, Wang Jiuling fell silent and just looked at Zhen Zhibing quietly.
Zhen Zhibing held his head, his face completely flushed, and after a short while, he finally spoke.
"Junior brother! Now that you've seen the portrait, your senior brother no longer needs to hide it from you..."
"Ever since returning from the ancient tomb, Senior Brother's mind has been filled with images of Miss Long, to the point that... to the point that he can't sleep at night..."
"Last night... I was missing Miss Long so much that I felt really uncomfortable, so I went out for some fresh air, and instinctively I went to the vicinity of the back mountain..."
Zhen Zhibing raised his head.
"Junior brother! Senior brother really didn't collude with the enemy! This is just a coincidence!"
After listening, Wang Jiuling's doubts were resolved. Under Zhen Zhibing's complicated gaze, Wang Jiuling stood up.
"Senior brother, I know you're telling the truth. For the sake of Quanzhen, I will help you!"
After saying that, Wang Jiuling turned and left.
The door closed, leaving only a dejected Zhen Zhibing in the room. Wang Jiuling's promise seemed to still linger in the air. Zhen Zhibing pursed his lips, then finally lowered his head and sighed deeply...
After leaving, Wang Jiuling already had the answer in his heart.
He was certain that Zhen Zhibing was innocent and that someone was targeting him.
That person is most likely Zhao Zhijing.
However, Wang Jiuling had no evidence.
This is also why Zhen Zhibing is under house arrest now. You're saying the Seven Masters of Quanzhen can't see the problem?
That's impossible, but there's no other way; there are almost no clues.
However, Wang Jiuling remembered someone.
Lu Qingdu.
He might be a breakthrough point.
"Heh! Using me as a pawn? Zhao Zhijing, you've picked the wrong person..."
After returning, Wang Jiuling summoned Yang Guo and asked him to secretly deliver a message to Lu Qingdu.
Tell Lu Qingdu to come find him.
On the other side, in Zhao Zhijing's room.
Zhao Zhijing was sending off a fourth-generation disciple with a smug look on his face.
Zhen Zhibing is suspected of colluding with the enemy. Some smart people have already seen this. This time the evidence is conclusive. At worst, Zhen Zhibing will lose all his prestige.
The question then arises: with Zhen Zhibing losing his prestige, who among the third-generation disciples will be the next candidate to become the leader of the Quanzhen Sect?
It's Zhao Zhijing, of course.
It hasn't been long, and some fourth-generation disciples have already come to visit Zhao Zhijing and pay their respects.
"Ha! Zhen Zhibing, Zhen Zhibing, of all people to compete with, why did you have to compete with me?"
"With your blockhead, you think you can outsmart me?"
"Heh! And that little bastard Wang Jiuling! You think you've done something good? Hahaha! You're nothing but a pawn in my game!"
"Little brat! You think you can mess with me? Once I've dealt with Zhen Zhibing, it'll be your turn!"
Zhao Zhijing was smug. Lu Qingdu knocked on the door and came in to tell Zhao Zhijing the current stance of most of the Quanzhen School members.
"Master! Your performance in reprimanding Zhen Zhibing in person at Chongyang Palace yesterday was quite the show!"
"Now, among the third-generation disciples, you are truly far ahead of the rest!"
"You have the position of future leader firmly in your grasp!"
Zhao Zhijing was very pleased with his disciple's flattery.
"Hahaha! You're right! When I become the sect leader, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits!"
After complimenting Zhao Zhijing, Lu Qingdu left in a cheerful mood.
On the way, he met Yang Guo and learned that Wang Jiuling actually wanted to see him.
