City Primordial Witch King

Chapter 697 I'm Guilty

"I'm guilty!"

Elder Tong didn't even finish listening to Hall Master Yuan's accountability, he knelt down neatly, and admitted all the responsibilities as soon as he opened his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, Ding Yi next to him also knelt down with his master, lowered his head and said, "This accident is entirely my fault, please punish me..."

The two masters and apprentices scrambled to admit their mistakes, this scene made Hall Master Yuan laugh, he squatted down, and asked softly to Elder Tong: "Why is Elder Tong in such a hurry to admit his mistakes, I haven't finished my words yet?"

Elder Tong lowered his head.

Facing Hall Master Yuan's gaze, he didn't dare to raise his head for a while, and could only ask in a low voice: "Is there anything else Hall Master wants to ask?"

"I want to know everything that happened on the south bank, whether it's what you saw in the thick fog, Ding Yi, or what you saw on the outside, Elder Tong, I want to know!" Hall Master Yuan stood up abruptly. When he got up, his tone was a little irritable.

It can be seen that he is still very concerned about this matter, and even the purpose of his trip is to investigate this matter.

After all, sixteen disciples died at one time, and it was impossible for the head of the sect to ignore it.

As soon as Hall Master Yuan asked the words out of his mouth, the kneeling master and apprentice immediately raised their heads and said almost in unison: "Hall Master, there is definitely something tricky in Nan'an!"

"Of course I know that there is a problem, why don't you just tell me now!" The hall master looked displeased, seeing that the master and apprentice were procrastinating, as if they were deliberately hiding something.

Elder Tong and Ding Yi glanced at each other, then made a gesture to let Ding Yi come first, while he shrank back.

Ding Yi had no choice but to take the lead and said: "Back to Hall Master, the things in the dense fog are specifically like this."

Afterwards, Ding Yi began to describe everything in detail, including his disagreements with other disciples, his quarrel with Mo Yuan, and even some of his innermost thoughts, starting from the moment they forced their way to the South Bank. Come out, it can be said that there is no reservation.

About 10 minutes later, Ding Yi finally finished talking about the situation he encountered in the dense fog, and finally concluded with some lingering fears: "I have always felt that the reason why Junior Brother Mo Yuanzhong turned into a monster is because he was caught by that monster." Affected by the dense fog. Therefore, this matter has a lot to do with Yunmeng Pavilion, and there is probably a very important person in that so-called forbidden area!"

"En!" Hall Master Yuan finally let out a soft "En" after listening for so long, expressing his agreement with Ding Yi's conclusion.

Afterwards, he didn't say anything, and asked Elder Tong at the side: "Now that the situation on the island is known, what about outside the island? What did Elder Tong see outside the island?"

"This..." Elder Tong showed embarrassment, wanted to speak out, but hesitated, so he asked tentatively: "Could the hall master take a step to speak?"

Hall Master Yuan frowned, seeing Elder Tong's anxious look, he immediately understood, nodded and said, "Okay!"

Afterwards, Elder Tong led Hall Master Yuan directly into the secret room of Changsheng Hall, and left all the others outside, including Fei Yu, Wei Changsheng and others.

Entering the secret room, Hall Master Yuan's expression gradually became serious, he glanced at the cautious Elder Tong, and said indifferently: "Is it okay to say it now?"

"Yes." Elder Tong nodded, and then began to describe everything that happened that day in detail.

This also included the plan he had discussed with Ding Yisuo, and even the reason for forcibly breaking into the forbidden area on the south bank, and he also explained it until later when he suddenly discovered thick fog and Elder Tong suddenly said the name "Sleepy Dragon Formation".

Hall Master Yuan couldn't help trembling when he heard this name, and it took a long time before he could hide his panic, and asked Elder Chaotong, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure, it's the Sleepy Dragon Formation!" Elder Tong nodded vigorously.

Hall Master Yuan was completely silent now, and his eyes gradually became free, looking up at the top of the secret room, not knowing what he was thinking.

Elder Tong at the side also seemed to understand Hall Master Yuan's mood very well, standing beside him without saying a word, watching his nose and heart with his eyes, like a wooden man.

After a long time, Hall Master Yuan woke up from his thoughts, and said in a daze: "The trapped dragon formation is actually alive..."

This sentence is full of surprise, and even more of a relief similar to a sudden realization.

Elder Tong, as the only person who has experienced certain things with Master Yuan, naturally knew what was contained in this sigh, and couldn't help sighing: "Yeah, I didn't dare to do it until I saw it with my own eyes that day. Make sure!"

"Hehe..." Hall Master Yuan suddenly laughed inexplicably, and said, "It's a pity I couldn't see it with my own eyes, otherwise I would definitely have to enter the trapped dragon formation again!"

Hall Master Yuan gritted his teeth when he said this, as if he had a deep hatred for this so-called trapped dragon formation, and he must reveal its secret.

"Hall master, absolutely not!" Elder Tong suddenly became excited, and quickly persuaded: "Now the hall master needs you to control the overall situation, and you must not be in danger."

Hall Master Yuan couldn't help sighing at the sincere admonition from the opposite side, then nodded and said: "Oh! I understand what you mean, but 500 years ago, the trapped dragon formation killed master and senior brother. No matter what, I have to find out!"

"No matter what, I will avenge this revenge myself!" Hall Master Yuan said through gritted teeth.

"Why don't I want to find out about Master Uncle and the others. It's just that Yunmeng Pavilion is obstructing it, so I haven't been able to pursue it..." Elder Tong suddenly changed the subject.

"Yunmeng Pavilion! Yes, Yunmeng Pavilion! You said that the south bank is the forbidden area of ​​Yunmeng Pavilion, and the trapped dragon array is definitely related to Yunmeng Pavilion!" Hall Master Yuan seemed to have made a new discovery, and said inexplicably excitedly.

"This... I have also sent people to investigate, and I have also asked Elder Tan Yuge to personally confirm that the trapped dragon formation may not have much to do with Yunmeng Pavilion..." Elder Tong suddenly changed his words as if he had thought of something.

"Why? Since it's the forbidden area of ​​Yunmeng Pavilion, why doesn't it have anything to do with them?" Hall Master Yuan was quite puzzled and immediately asked.

"According to Elder Tan Yuge's observations in Yunmeng Pavilion for hundreds of years, Yunmeng Pavilion probably doesn't have that ability... The thing that can attract the trapped dragon formation is probably attracted by the aura of this island." Elder Tong said The face explained bitterly.

Hearing this explanation, Hall Master Yuan immediately frowned, and his heart gradually became silent.

Hall Master Yuan was silent for a long time, thinking about the relationship between the back mountain of Changsheng River and the south bank of Shujie Island in his mind. After much deliberation, it was true that, as Elder Tong said, the spiritual energy in both places was extremely abundant. This might be the only a common denominator.
