Chapter 2466 Dragnet
Under the afterglow, within the snow.
Two figures were talking quietly.
Dongfang Baijiao's expression suddenly changed, "What did you say? Master Xiao Yi is dead?"
"Wait a minute." Dongfang Baijiao said quickly, "Didn't I ask you to inform Hall Master Xiao Yi of the unexpected events in advance?"
Master Jueying said coldly, "Master Xiao Yi, I saw you, but I also changed my mind."
"I originally thought that maybe he could really do what everyone thought was impossible."
"Now it seems that I looked down on him."
"Really dead?" Dongfang Baijiao stared at him and asked.
"What do you think?" the master of Jueying Palace said in an extremely cold voice, "if you fall into the abyss of heaven, can you still survive?"
"Even I can't climb out of that damn place."
Dongfang Baijiao suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the usually calm master of Jueying Palace was furious at this moment. At the same time, Dongfang Baijiao's face also changed drastically and his body trembled suddenly.
"Oops." Dongfang Baijiao suppressed the look of horror on his face, "Master Jueying Palace, you came here specifically to report this matter to the Chief Palace Master?"
"Otherwise?" the master of Jueying Palace asked coldly.
"No, absolutely not." Dongfang Baijiao said repeatedly, "If this matter comes out, the consequences..."
Dongfang Baijiao swallowed again, "With that kid's identity and his status in the hearts of the eight chief palace masters, if the news of his death spreads, it will be..."
"The Eighth Palace was furious, and the entire Central Territory was in chaos."
Jueying Palace Master narrowed his eyes, "You mean, hiding it from the Chief Palace Master?"
Dongfang Baijiao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Since the death of Master Xiao Yi is already a fact, then this news is meaningless."
"The Chief Palace Master has said that in today's Central Territory, there is no room for chaos due to internal and external troubles."
"Palace Master Xiao Yi used to be very clear about its meaning and significance. He always put the overall situation first."
"Some other chaos is enough to cause chaos in the Central Territory today; if the eight pillars of the Eight Palaces themselves become chaotic, it will be a disaster for the entire Central Territory."
"Think about it, the Chief Hall Master and Hall Master Xiao Yi would never want to see this situation."
The master of Jueying Palace said coldly, "Do you think you can hide it?"
Dongfang Baijiao nodded, "Since the battle of the Holy Moon Sect, Master Xiao Yi has not put down his life tablets in the main hall and branch halls."
"So now only the two of us know the news of his death."
The Master of Jueying Palace still spoke coldly, "Then what do you think?"
Dongfang Baijiao thought for a while and said, "I don't know. This matter is of great importance. I'd better report it to the head of the family first and discuss it with the head of the family before making a final decision."
Upon hearing this, the master of Jueying Palace immediately sneered, "When will the secrets of our Demon Hunting Palace be passed to your Dongfang Family's meeting hall?"
"As the master of the retreat hall of the Demon Hunting Hall, you know the rules of the Demon Hunting Hall very well."
Dongfang Baijiao stretched out his hand and pressed down softly, "Master Jueying Hall, please don't be impatient yet."
"My Dongfang family and the Eighth Palace have always been on good terms with each other. We fight against the Demon Realm together. We are inseparable..."
"Oh?" the master of Jueying Palace interrupted with a sneer, "So you can pass the secrets of our Demon Hunting Palace to your Dongfang family?"
"So even if the head of the Dongfang family knew that it was Dongfang Zhi who let Di Luo run away, and that it was his precious daughter who deliberately plotted against Hall Master Xiao Yi and forced Hall Master Xiao Yi to a dead end, he could still turn a blind eye."
"And you, knowingly knew the truth, chose to hide it?"
"How do you know..." Dongfang Baijiao's face was startled, and then his face darkened, "Master Jueying Palace, your intelligence in searching the Demon Realm is very good, but you don't know much about the intelligence in our Central Realm."
"Don't be misinformed by rumors you heard somewhere..."
"Rumor? Misinformation?" Master Jueying Palace sneered, "Dillo personally told Demon Lord Jia Luo about this matter, how could there be any mistake?"
Dongfang Baijiao's expression suddenly changed.
This master of the Jueying Palace actually knows the secret conversations between Demon Lord Jialuo and his grandson?
How powerful is this master of Jueying Palace?
"Master Jueying Hall, listen to me." Dongfang Baijiao explained, "That's just..."
"I'm not interested in hearing your explanation." Master Jueying said coldly, "I'm not interested in how to handle the affairs of Master Xiao Yi."
"In my eyes, he is already a dead person, and he is just a dead person. It has nothing to do with me."
"I'm angry because you dared to lie to me." A trace of killing intent flashed in the eyes of the master of Jueying Palace.
"He has not yet inherited the position of the master of the main palace, and he has no right to know the previous information."
"I only give you one last warning. I, Jueying, only take orders from the master of the palace."
"Your self-assertion and cleverness, just like this time when you recklessly let Hall Master Xiao Yi enter the Demon Realm, will only affect the situation set by the Chief Hall Master."
"Don't do it again, otherwise, I will personally take your life."
"Also, the Demon Hunting Hall is the Demon Hunting Hall, and the Dongfang Family is your Dongfang Family. The two have nothing to do with each other."
After saying that, the master of Jueying Palace turned around.
Dongfang Baijiao frowned, "My old master of the Dongfang family..."
"Hmph." The master of Jueying Hall snorted and interrupted, "That old turtle from Dongfang Kuanglan has shrunk for so many years. Why, do you still have the nerve to mention his name?"
Dongfang Baijiao's expression changed, but he did not dare to say anything as he felt the astonishing coldness.
"By the way, there is one last piece of information." The master of Jueying Palace paused, slowly turned his head, and glanced at Dongfang Baijiao.
"During this period, I can no longer deliver information, and you can't inform me."
"There's still a little more time before it's Human Sacrifice Day."
"This grand event shocked the entire demon realm, involving almost all the powerful demon clans including the Six-Heng Demon Lord and the ten demon masters, as well as the eighteen commanders and fifty demon masters."
"At that time, the entire Demon Realm will be like a dragnet. Not even a grain of sand can enter, and not a single fly can escape."
"I can't leave the Demon Realm and come here during this period of time."
"As for those geniuses of the human race, I also advise you, the Dongfang Family, to give up on this idea. Even if you, the Dongfang Family, use all their strength, you still won't be able to make any waves on the Human Sacrifice Day, let alone save people."
After the words fell, the master of Jueying Palace turned around completely.
The afterglow of the setting sun has faded away.
The star that had fallen in the afterglow was nowhere to be seen. At this moment, night fell quietly, and not even a trace remained.
In the cold night, the figure of the Master of Jueying Hall quietly disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace to be found.
…
Half an hour later.
Dongfang Family, in the master’s study.
The head of the Dongfang family looked livid, while Dongfang Baijiao bowed aside.
Click click click…
Patriarch Dongfang’s fists were clenched so hard that they crackled.
In front of the table are Dongfang Qilin, Dongfang Zhi, and Dongfang Wu.
Eastern Qilin has a cold face.
Dongfang Zhi had a sneer on her lips.
Only Dongfang Wu looked at the head of the Dongfang family with a worried look on his face, "Father, is Tianyuan Jedi Land really a place where you must die? Is it really impossible for Master Xiao Yi to have a chance of survival?"
"Impossible." Patriarch Dongfang shook his head, "A glimmer of hope? Not even half of it."
