"Elder Qingpeng..."

Zhao Cangqiong came out and cupped his hands.

"I heard that the two little boys from the Gongsun family are in the city lord's mansion?"

The great elder looked at Zhao Cangqiong and asked directly without any nonsense.

"Yes."

Zhao Cangqiong's heart sank slightly. Did he come for Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang?

"They were kidnapped by the Shengtian Sect and later escaped back... City Master Zhao, can you believe it?"

The great elder asked again.

"This matter is still under investigation... we will definitely get to the bottom of it."

Zhao Cangqiong said.

"No need to go to so much trouble. I am good at soul searching. If you search the souls of the two of them, you will know whether they have joined the Shengtian Cult."

The great elder said calmly.

"Elder Qingpeng..."

Zhao Cangqiong frowned, he wanted to search for the souls of two people? Are they useless?

He didn't care about the life and death of Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang, but if they let Qingpeng search their souls in the city lord's palace, how would they explain to Gongsun Zhen and Shanhailou?

At this moment, he regretted not letting Gongsun Zhen take him away earlier.

The main thing is that no one expected that the Great Elder would attack two people as soon as he came to Sifang City.

Normally, if you have a dispute, you should go to Gongsun Zhen.

After all, Gongsun Zhen was suspected of Wu Qingming's death.

"Why, does Zhao Cheng want to reject me?"

The great elder raised his eyelids and stared at Zhao Cangqiong with lifeless eyes.

Zhao Cangqiong felt the great elder's gaze, as if a thousand kilograms of boulders were weighing on his body, and he felt quite stressed for a moment.

"Senior Qingpeng, long time no see."

Ji Wuji took a step forward and cupped his hands.

"You came to Sifang City a few days ago. I happened to have something to do and didn't see you."

"This matter has nothing to do with the Void Sword Sect."

The great elder glanced at Ji Wuji, his tone still calm.

"What, you want to get involved on behalf of the Void Sword Sect?"

"Elder Qingpeng's words are serious."

Ji Wuji's heart skipped a beat, wasn't this old guy too aggressive?

"If you don't want to get involved, then don't say anything."

After the great elder finished speaking, he stopped looking at Ji Wuji.

"..."

Ji Wuji's veins on his forehead twitched a few times, he gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger.

"Elder Qingpeng, this is not something I refuse or not, it's just that I can't do it."

Zhao Cangqiong took a deep breath, looked at the great elder, and said slowly.

He was a little panicked, but there were some things he couldn't stop saying just because he was panicked.

There are some things that you can’t just not do just because you’re panicking.

He is the lord of Sifang City, and he has the responsibility to say something and do something!

"..."

The great elder stared at Zhao Cangqiong and said nothing.

This silent pressure swept out with him as the center.

The strong men in Qingyun Tower were also surprised that Zhao Cangqiong refused like this?

No face given at all?

Zhao Cangqiong met the great elder's gaze without any retreat.

The eyes of the two people collided silently in the air.

Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei were also under pressure.

They looked at the Great Elder, then at Zhao Cangqiong, and secretly admired... This guy still has courage.

"Ah."

Suddenly, the great elder laughed.

"City Lord Zhao, what if I have to do it?"

"Then this junior will only be offended."

Zhao Cangqiong said in a deep voice.

"He would not hesitate to involve Broken Star Palace in it and make Qingyun Tower an enemy?"

The great elder's smile faded and he asked.

"This has nothing to do with Broken Star Palace."

Zhao Cangqiong shook his head.

"This is something that the four forces in Sifang City must face together... I believe that Senior Ji and Senior Huai will not allow such a thing to happen."

"..."

Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei, who had been admiring Zhao Cangqiong's courage just now, suddenly wanted to curse.

This guy directly dragged the two of them into it.

"The four forces? Hehe, maybe it's time to change the four forces in Sifang City."

The great elder looked at Zhao Cangqiong and sneered.

"How about Broken Star Palace, Void Sword Sect, Jiuding Sect, plus me, Qingyun Tower?"

Listening to the words of the great elder, Zhao Cangqiong and the others were shocked. Is Qingyun Tower going to take this opportunity to take over Sifang City?

"We'll talk about this later. Today, I'm going to go see those two brats from Shanhai Tower."

The great elder said solemnly.

"No one can stop it."

"Elder Qingpeng, the two of them are in very bad condition and are very likely to become useless. You are a senior expert, and if you are like this with two juniors, if word spreads, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation."

Zhao Cangqiong refused to give in.

"Waste people? Since they are waste people, what are they left for? Just in time, I got rid of them... Maybe they have joined the Shengtian Sect and even become the link between the Shengtian Sect and Gongsun Zhen."

The great elder said coldly.

"You mean, Senior Gongsun and the Shengtian Sect..."

Zhao Cangqiong's heart moved.

"Otherwise? Based on what he has done recently, do you think it is normal?"

The great elder said, looking at Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei.

"As for Wu Qingming's death, it can be put aside in front of the Shengtian Sect... Everyone in the Shengtian Sect can kill him."

"..."

Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei were speechless. You are using the pretense of "righteousness" to get rid of Gongsun Zhen!

Apparently this old guy felt that finding Wu Qingming's murderer was too much trouble.

In other words, it doesn't matter how Wu Qingming died.

The important thing is that this is an opportunity to attack Shanhai Tower.

For Gongsun Zhen to become a member of the 'Shengtian Sect', it would not only deal with him personally, but also be a threat to Shanhailou.

If you think about it this way, it makes sense why the great elder came to see Gongsun Yu and Gongsun Liang.

He wants to use these two people as a breakthrough point... No matter whether they belong to the Shengtian Sect or not, after searching their souls, they will definitely be members of the Shengtian Sect!

The Great Elder... definitely has such a method!

"It's fine if you don't take action. Once you take action, it's a killing move."

Ji Wuji sighed in his heart, wondering how Gongsun Zhen and Shanhailou would respond?
