C187 Meeting Calmly

Meng Chong didn't say anything. He just kept drinking. In fact, everyone knew what was going on. This matter wasn't as simple as they thought it would be. Initially, they thought that it was only Xuan Zhengchen who had killed his nephew. In order to avoid suspicion, they would lend a hand and help him out. However, as Xiao Chen and the Golden Snake Hall saw and heard, they felt that there was a mysterious force mixed in.

Suddenly, a black shadow jumped out of the inn's house, jumped onto the high wall, and followed by a burst of hurried footsteps, Xuan Zhengchen and the others chased after it. Duan Tianya and Meng Chong could clearly see it from the roof, and with a leap, they chased after it.

The man in black's Light-body Technique was really good. He was less than a mile away. Only Duan Tianya and Meng Chong were left behind. They ran another mile. The man in black gradually slowed down and waited for Duan Tianya and Meng Chong to catch up. The man in black suddenly turned around and saw his right hand raised. He threw out a hidden weapon and Duan Tianya turned around to receive it. Holding the hidden weapon in his hand, Xuan Zhengchen and the others arrived. The man in black threw out a few more hidden weapons and escaped through a gap.

Everything returned to normal. Duan Tianya and the others returned to the inn and took out the hidden weapon in their hands. Everyone looked at it and felt that the hidden weapon looked familiar. They seemed to have seen the five-inch flying knife somewhere before.

Suddenly, Meng Chong had a flash of inspiration and said: "Isn't this Zhu Lei's flying knife?"

"Thousand Hand Immortal Child Zhu Lei?" Duan Tianya suddenly realized something. "I was wondering why he looks so familiar!"

Xuan Zhengchen was puzzled. "What is he doing here?" Xuan Zhengchen asked.

Duan Tianya shook his head. He could not figure it out. Could it be that the Golden Snake Hall wanted to kill him? Xuan Zhengchen asked, "Shall we go back to Golden Snake Hall and ask him about it?"

Duan Tianya replied, "The Golden Snake Hall can't escape. We should go to the Demon Soul Gang to find out more about it. We will discuss it further later. "

The Demon Soul Gang was built in the Yellow Lawn. The tall grass in the surroundings had turned into a tall wall about two feet tall. There were four axemen standing guard in front of the gate. A large flag was erected on one side, and there was a striking word 'Demon' on it.

Meng Chong couldn't help but praise, "What an imposing manner! Although this Demon Soul Gang is famous, this is the first time I have seen it today. "

Xuan Zhengchen took a step forward and before he could say anything, the door opened and a person who looked like a butler walked out. He cupped his fists and said with a smile, "May I ask if it is the Nine Tribulations Sword Arts Hero?"

Xuan Zhengchen replied, "That's right. I have something to discuss with you. "

The butler smiled and said, "My Sect Master has been waiting for you for a long time. May I know who you are? " The butler pointed at Duan Tianya and the others. Xuan Zhengchen understood. "They are all my friends. "

The butler said, "The leader has ordered that a person named Duan Tianya must be allowed to join the gang. "

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. It was Duan Tianya who asked, "Why do we have to see him?"

The butler said seriously, "To tell you the truth, many days ago, my Sect Master was ambushed by someone. That person's martial arts skills were excellent. Fortunately, Sect Master's sword skills were excellent and he was not injured at all. When we found out that a few of you came to my sect, we knew that Duan Tianya would definitely come. "

Duan Tianya said, "Then I'll have to trouble the housekeeper to lead the way. "

When he arrived at the main hall of Demon Soul Gang, he found that it was filled with people. Among them, there were a few famous experts in the martial arts world. Dugu Qingping sat in the middle. When he saw Duan Tianya and the others coming, he said without batting an eyelid. "Xuan Zhengchen, you didn't come here because of Xuan Peng's death, did you?"

Xuan Zhengchen replied, "That's right!"

"You suspect that I killed him?"

Xuan Zhengchen said, "That's possible. "

Dugu Qingping said. "I'm not the one who killed Xuan Peng. You can go back now, but Duan Tianya has to stay. "

Everyone was stunned, but Xuan Zhengchen thought about it. He and Duan Tianya had come together. It would not make sense to just leave him alone, so he said, "It would not make sense for me to leave my friend behind. Besides, I don't know if he is willing to stay or not. "

Dugu Qingping said firmly. "He will definitely stay!" Then he stared at Duan Tianya and asked, "Is it? Hero Duan!"

Duan Tianya heard him and smiled, "Since Sect Leader Dugu thinks so highly of me, then I can only accept it respectfully. However, I have a presumptuous request. "

Dugu Qingping also said with a smile. "Don't tell me you want me to admit that I am the murderer of Xuan Peng?"

Duan Tianya said, "That's not it. I just want you to stay here for one night with Hero Xuan and the others. Tomorrow, we will leave together to find the person who killed Xuan Peng. "

Dugu Qingping was puzzled. "Won't your search be like finding a needle in a haystack?"

Duan Tianya said, "Finding a needle in a haystack is better than fishing for the moon in the water. "

Dugu Qingping stood up and said to the butler, "Set up a few tables of wine and wine. You will not return until you are drunk. "

The food and wine were very sumptuous. Everyone pushed their glasses and changed their cups. Dugu Qingping was very surprised that Duan Tianya actually stopped drinking. When he drank to his heart's content, Xuan Zhengchen could not help but ask, "I heard from the butler that Sect Master Dugu was also plotted against?"

Dugu Qingping glanced at him, but didn't answer. Instead, he motioned for him to disperse and talk again. Three days were about to pass. More than half of the people had dispersed, with the exception of Duan Tianya and the others. There was also a mysterious man with a mask on his face. Xuan Zhengchen asked curiously, "The leader of the Solitary Gang has introduced all the experts, except you, who didn't mention anything about them. May I know who you are?"

"Have you heard of him before?"

"Didn't he die under Duan Junhou's sword?" Duan Tianya was not surprised when he heard the name.

When mentioning the word no face, few people in the pugilistic world had heard of him in recent years. However, if it was Xuan Zhengchen's generation, few people would not have heard of him. This person broke into the pugilistic world like a sudden clap of thunder and fell down like a shooting star. It could be described as short-lived.

In the early years, many experts were defeated by him. When he was defeated by Duan Junhou with dual swords, it had only been less than a year. However, He had another identity that few people knew. He was the sworn brother of Dugu Nan, the demon soul.

Seeing Duan Tianya's shocked expression, Dugu Qingping said to him in a mysterious manner, "You must be surprised. How did my Martial Uncle come back to life?"

In fact, Duan Tianya was really curious. Putting aside the fact that he was able to come back to life, he was also able to come back to life. There was no news about him in the twenty years in the martial world. This was also a rare thing, and he said: "It seems that this senior didn't die at all back then. "

Dugu Qingping said with a smile. "You are right, but you are only half right. Although you managed to keep your life, it took you nearly twenty years to recover from your injuries. It is better to die than live. "

Everyone was listening attentively, and Hou Jian spoke in a rare manner. "I think senior's sword skills must be shocking. "

Duan Tianya was a little worried, "Twenty years of recuperation, twenty years of emptiness. "

Maybe because he heard Duan Tianya's doubt, although Faceless didn't say anything, he pulled out his sword and cut a candle flame. Then he cut another candle flame. The candle flame shook slightly, and when the tip of the sword cut the candle flame, it was lit again.
