Circles of torches had surrounded Su Chen and the other three people beside him were already shaking all over and even feeling dizzy. When they came here, they naturally guessed that it would not be a good thing. But he never expected that he would be caught in an instant. When everyone first arrived at Neishan, it seemed that they had received some pretty good treatment in Sanshan. But in terms of real status, Yuexi Mountain is still at the bottom. "It's okay, it should be okay We are valued by the deputy peak master, and we are helping him." One of the disciples started to mutter. These words are actually just to calm myself down. Their hearts were already panicked to the extreme, and all they could do was to comfort themselves as much as possible. The four people have been surrounded. A group of Yue Xishan's guards are holding torches in their hands, illuminating the originally dim environment.
In the distance, four people were walking towards this side at a leisurely pace. When the four men approached, the guards surrounding them immediately made way for them. Su Chen didn't recognize these four people, but they looked like the superiors of Yuexi Mountain. The four of them had some indifference on their faces and just glanced at Su Chen and the other three. In their opinion, what happened tonight must have been directed by someone else. Su Chen and the other three were just a few insignificant disciples. "What do you think?" The old man standing in the middle hesitated for a long time, sighed, and finally asked. The middle-aged man next to him immediately responded. "Peak Master, today's events should be very clear. Don't blame me for being blunt, it must be Deputy Peak Master Wang who sent people to steal the Yuexi Seal Tablet. He knew very well in his heart that Master, you are going to choose me to take over. I have been fighting with him for so many years, how could he be willing to let me take over? Stealing the Yuexi Seal Tablet could delay the occurrence of these events. I, Meng Wang, talked to him several times and spoke very sincerely, which was considered as a promise I made to him. But Deputy Peak Master Wang is still so entangled and using these sinister means behind the scenes. Peak Master, I have done everything I can. This time, I don't want to tolerate it any longer. Let’s make it clear this time what needs to be said.”
This man called himself Meng Wang, and he just called the middle-aged old man the peak master. Su Chen looked at the three people around him. Their faces were pale at the moment, without a trace of blood. They know Yue Xishan better than Su Chen. One of the two people speaking at this moment is the peak master of Yuexi Mountain, who is also the leader of this sect. The other Meng Wang is the deputy peak master of the second mountain. Being left behind today, they were all worried, even terrified. At this moment, he only thought about the deputy sect leader Wang Tianming coming to rescue him. But at the moment, the status of these two people is no lower than Wang Tianming. There is no point in looking forward to Wang Tianming anymore. The master of Yuexi Mountain did not answer Meng Wang, but looked at Su Chen and others. "Which side are you guys from?" Hearing his slightly old voice, Su Chen looked at the three people around him, who were vying to answer. He told all about his hometown and everything about Mianyue Mountain. Finally, when he heard that it was someone from Sanshan Wang Tianming's side, the peak master sighed again. "Peak Master, now the evidence is conclusive, right? He placed spies around me and found out the location of Yuexi Seal Pad in advance. Recently, new disciples have joined the inner mountain, making it easier to blend in." Meng Wang had already made the conclusion in his words. Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain looked at the other two people. "Two elders, what do you think about this matter?" The two elders who came with him frowned and thought about it. “Let’s call Deputy Peak Master Wang and have everything explained to us face to face. As fellow Yuexishan people, don’t hide some things.” Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain also nodded. Several people sat down directly in the yard, waiting for Wang Tianming's arrival. In fact, they had already sent someone to inform Wang Tianming while they were on the way. It would only take an ordinary disciple more than half an hour to get there from Sanshan. A strong man like Wang Tianming would naturally come faster.
Su Chen and the other three were directly ignored. That Meng Wang, the master of Yuexi Mountain, did not ask any more questions. Just waiting, waiting for Wang Tianming to arrive. It was almost midnight, and after seeing a crowd of people, the master of Yuexi Mountain stood up and walked forward. He knew that it was the deputy peak master Wang Tianming who had arrived. Yuexi Yintai, which is the symbol of the master of Yuexi Mountain. Every decree and every document needs to be stamped with this seal. For the huge Yuexi Mountain, this seal pad is certainly not the core element. Able to calm the entire situation and command the entire Yuexi Mountain. The peak master's own strength and reputation are, of course, the most important. But now, the two deputy peak masters, Meng Wang and Wang Tianming, are competing for the position of the next peak master. Although Meng Wang has an advantage, it is just an advantage, not an overwhelming advantage. The Yuexi Seal Tablet was stolen, which had an impact on Meng Wang. At least it will delay the time for Meng Wang to take over. Since Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang has seized the opportunity today, he naturally wants to use this opportunity to completely suppress Wang Tianming and put an end to him. After a moment, the guards holding torches made way. Deputy Peak Master Wang Tianming walked over quickly with a serious look on his face. "Peak Master, Deputy Peak Master Meng, Elder Wu, Elder Xie." Wang Tianming saluted, still with the dignity of a superior. "Tianming, you already know the reason why I asked you to come here, right? I have heard a lot of news that is not good for you, but one should not believe everything he hears. I hope you can give a reasonable answer.” There was some regret in the tone of the Yuexi Mountain Master. He didn't want to see his subordinates fighting like this. There's nothing wrong with competing with each other. But the dispute between Meng Wang and Wang Tianming was obviously excessive. Hearing this, Wang Tianming nodded calmly. “Peak Master, I can explain the specific situation tonight. Because in the afternoon, I had already found some clues and had been dealing with them.
The four young men in front of me are indeed my new disciples from Sanshan. I, Wang Tianming, do not deny this. But what happened tonight was not what I, Wang Tianming, instructed them to do. I wasn’t the one who actually instructed them.” Wang Tianming looked serious and his words were powerful. He did not admit any of Meng Wang's accusations. No matter how conclusive the evidence was, Wang Tianming simply threw the dirty water back. He didn't even know the person he sent. This answer should not be considered an explanation, but a counterattack. What Wang Tianming meant by saying this was that he was directly pointing the finger at Meng Wang. Upon hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain naturally understood. Meng Wang beside him even snorted. “What Vice Peak Master Tianming said is interesting. They are disciples of your Three Mountains. If they don't listen to your arrangements, will they listen to my, Meng Wang's arrangements? You know, before they came to Sanshan. He was practicing in Mianyue Mountain. Wu Changsheng of Mianyue Mountain seems to have some friendship with Deputy Peak Master Tianming, right? "After hearing what Meng Wang said, Wang Tianming bowed to the Peak Master of Yuexi Mountain and continued speaking. “In fact, we all know very well what the outcome of this matter will be. If I, Wang Tianming, intended to steal this thing, I would not arrange these young people with poor abilities. I still have enough people available under my command. Of course, no one would believe this untenable excuse. I have more direct evidence here. Bring the people up." Wang Tianming gave instructions to his followers, and then the team quickly went down the mountain. Seeing Wang Tianming's reaction, Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang felt vaguely uneasy. Tonight’s situation seems like I’ve entered the game directly. Everything was within Wang Tianming's calculations. His answers and responses were so smooth. Su Chen stood aside and watched the show. At this moment, things gradually became clear. Next, Wang Tianming should invite a key person.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the master of Mianyue Mountain, Wu Changsheng. Not long after, Wang Tianming's followers brought someone over. This person should be at the foot of the mountain, otherwise he wouldn't have come so quickly. When he saw this person, Meng Wang also frowned. The person in front of him is none other than Wu Changsheng, the master of Mian Yue Mountain. But at this moment, Wu Changsheng looked a little weak, as if he had suffered serious injuries. These injuries were clearly sustained during his fight with Su Chen. But now, everyone seeing this would subconsciously think that it was Wang Tianming who did it. If Wang Tianming and Wu Changsheng had some friendship, they would not have been so harsh. "Master Wu, the Peak Master is here, please tell us the truth. If you continue to deceive, no one can save you." Wu Changsheng had a guilty look on his face, and before he spoke, he glanced at Meng Wang again. “We have been planning these things for more than two months. Everyone in Yuexi Mountain now knows that Deputy Peak Master Meng will take over the position of Peak Master. I thought that if I could make friends with Deputy Peak Master Meng, I would be able to live a better life in the future. I agreed to this plan." Wu Changsheng's words really muddied the waters. Meng Wang, who had been confident of victory, began to panic a little. "Wu Changsheng, when did I ask you to plan all this? You have a close relationship with Wang Tianming. What you did today was clearly helping him to slander me!" Hearing this, Wu Changsheng did give a bitter smile. “I also hope that Deputy Peak Master Wang can remember our old friendship, but I am injured. Someone who is on good terms with me wouldn't be so harsh." Hearing this, Elder Xie on the side stepped forward to investigate. After checking, they found that Wu Changsheng was seriously injured and they were all new injuries. Elder Xie frowned and nodded to the master of Yuexi Mountain, confirming that the injury was real. "It seems that the foundation has been damaged." Finally, Elder Xie added one more sentence.
This result makes the words of Wu Changsheng and Wang Tianming even more credible. In this situation, the master of Yuexi Mountain couldn't help but frown and look at Meng Wang. Seeing this, Meng Wang became even more uneasy. "Peak Master, I didn't plan these things. I was tricked into doing this. I don’t know these four people at all. Severe punishment, directly torture the four of them. The four of them will definitely know the truth, and everything will be revealed through torture!" After Meng Wang finished speaking, Wang Tianming not only did not object, but also nodded in agreement. "Peak Master, I also think that torture can be used. These young people cannot bear it and will probably tell the truth. Even if they can endure it, they should be severely punished for what they did today." At this moment, Su Chen and the other three had become completely abandoned. The two sides surprisingly agreed on punishment. Wu Changsheng in the crowd looked at Su Chen with a faint smile on his face. He was feeling proud and showing off his abilities. Here with Su Chen, he lost all face and even got injured. But it didn't take long for him to get his revenge. In front of everyone, Wang Tianming bowed before the master of Yuexi Mountain. He still had something to say. "Peak Master, I no longer have any other extravagant hopes for the position of the next Peak Master. I also explained it to Deputy Peak Master Meng, and made everything clear. However, Deputy Peak Master Meng responded to my explanations. He also said that in the future, he would work together with me to govern Yuexi Mountain. In fact, they wanted to kill me all and leave me no chance to escape." The two deputy peak masters of Yuexi Mountain are fighting among themselves, and from what I heard, it seems that the fight is quite fierce. Su Chen looked at the three people around him, all of whom had despair on their faces. As an ordinary disciple who had just entered the inner mountain of Yuexi Mountain, he was involved in this dispute. No matter what the truth is, it will not end well. It is highly likely that it will be difficult to save one's life.
It was normal for the three of them to show despair on their faces. After Deputy Peak Master Wang Tianming finished saying this, Meng Wang denied and argued again. The whole story and the truth are now completely messed up. Both sides found reasons and presented evidence. They are all talking about each other's problems, and their arguments generally make sense. But after Wang Tianming brought Wu Changsheng out, his words became a little more credible. The two elders beside him looked at Meng Wang with more suspicion. Being so cruel to Wang Tianming, will the elders be treated similarly when they encounter troubles in the future? The high-level struggles in Yuexi Mountain have always been restrained. But today, this move seemed a little cruel and had no bottom line. After the quarrel, there was silence. The only sound around was the crackling of torches. The guards around seemed to know that the situation was serious and even suppressed their breathing. Under the current circumstances, we can only rely on the master of Yuexi Mountain to see what decision he makes. After a while, the sound of night watchmen could be heard in the distance. It's already Yin hour. If we delay any longer, it will probably be dawn. "It's too late today, let's go back first. We will discuss this again after we invite the other elders to come at dawn." Since the master of Yuexi Mountain has said so, naturally no one else has the right to be stubborn. No matter what, he is still the peak master. "Peak Master, how do we deal with these four people?" Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang looked at Su Chen and the other three with some hatred on his face. He was certain that he had been set up and was still very angry. Of course, his face wouldn't look good. Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain turned his head and looked at Wang Tianming. While hesitating, he seemed to think of something. "Tianming, do you have any objection to using severe punishment on them?" When asked, Wang Tianming shook his head without any hesitation. "I will follow the arrangements of the Peak Master. I, Wang Tianming, have a clear conscience." Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain turned around and took a few steps back.
“Since both of you agree to torture, let’s interrogate you here. This peak master also wants to hear how they will answer. " After saying that, the master of Yuexi Mountain walked towards a guard. (End of this chapter)
