As soon as the words were finished, Zhong Jiuli's cell phone rang again. He glanced at the incoming call notification and pressed the answer button. Zhao Duzhi's anxious voice came over, "What's going on?"

Zhong Jiuli drooped his long eyelashes, and said coldly, "Song Ci was taken away."

Zhao Duzhi was startled, then he came back to his senses and asked, "What does Yue Xiuqin's death have to do with this matter?"

Just before dawn, he received the news of Yue Xiuqin's death, and then he received a notice from Dong Wei that the elders' meeting was ahead of schedule, and Zhong Jiuli would also attend.It was hard for him not to connect these two things together, so he called Zhong Jiuli in a hurry, but it kept showing that he was in the middle of the call, so he finally got through.

Zhong Jiuli briefly recounted what had happened, Zhao Duzhi cursed on the other end of the phone, and asked, "What are you going to do now?"

Zhong Jiuli looked up at Lin Chao, paused for a moment, and said, "'Lead' him out."

There was a person sitting upright in the study, the steam from the hot tea in front of him blocked the sight of others, only a dignified face was vaguely seen.At this time, a young man walked in with a blank expression. He leaned over and whispered something in the man's ear.

After listening, the man didn't express his position, he waved his hand to signal the man to leave, and then he left the study slowly on crutches.

The dungeon always has a decaying musty smell and dampness, and when you touch it, the biting cold will come from your fingertips.He tapped the ground with his cane, and continued walking inside by the lamp hanging on the wall.

Not long after, a pool of water appeared in front of him, the water was so black that even the light falling on it could not show a trace.

At this time, Xu poked his head out of the pool, and the water began to sway, he slowly got up, and looked at the man casually, "What's the matter?"

He looked at the market with a loving smile on his face, "You are in a good mood."

This is an affirmative sentence.

Xu gave him a blank look, then stopped talking and sank to the bottom of the pool.

The man seemed to sigh lightly, with regret and coldness in his eyes, he asked, "Where is Song Ci?"

Xu came up to the surface of the water again, causing huge splashes. He looked at the man vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

The man always had a smile on his lips, he shook his head and asked, "He still doesn't remember?"

Xu was extremely indifferent, "Yes."

He smiled, avoided the topic, and said, "I've already done what you asked me to do for you, and now I need your help for something?"

Xu Changyan raised his eyelashes and glanced at him, "What's the matter?"

At [-]:[-] p.m., Zhong Jiuli appeared in an office building in the city center.

Lin Chao followed behind him and asked nervously, "What are we doing here?"

As soon as the words fell, Dong Wei's figure appeared in front of the two, followed by two men who looked like assistants.Seeing Zhong Jiuli, he immediately dragged him into the office with a hasty expression. Lin Chao and two assistants were waiting in the lounge.

"I found the Soul Slayer Sword!"

Dong Wei suppressed his excitement, but he still couldn't help but look happy, "I've caught him too, and he's coming this way now. We'll see the sword tonight at the latest."

Zhong Jiuli was slightly taken aback, but his heart didn't fluctuate much. He nodded, "Okay."

Dong Wei was taken aback, he didn't expect Zhong Jiuli to be so indifferent, and then he remembered that Song Ci's whereabouts were unknown at the moment, and Zhong Jiuli probably wouldn't be happy, so he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "With the Soul Slaying Sword, Xu also has to be scruples."

Hearing this, a strange emotion flashed in Zhong Jiuli's eyes. He drooped his long eyelashes to cover up the emotion, and said calmly, "Yes."

Dong Wei didn't notice anything wrong with his expression, after all Zhong Jiuli has always been like this, he continued: "How do you plan to lure Xu out?"

Over the years, they have thought of many ways to find Xu, but they have never taken the bait, appearing occasionally and then disappearing quickly, without leaving a trace, making people nowhere to be found.

Zhong Jiuli raised his head and looked towards Lin Chao outside the glass door.

Lin Chao looked into the room nervously, but his sight was cut off, so he could only hang his head in frustration.It happened so suddenly that he was brought here by Zhong Jiuli before he had time to slow down his question.

After thinking about it, he decided to call Guan Lingyan.

Guan Lingyan answered very quickly, and immediately said, "Where did you go? Why don't you say anything?"

Zhao Yinuo couldn't find them, so he called him. Only then did he know that Song Ci and the others had slipped away.

Hearing Guan Lingyan's voice, Lin Chao felt at ease. Although Zhong Jiuli was powerful, he always had a cold face, as if there was nothing in his eyes. People are close and at ease.

He collected himself and continued, "Song Ci was taken away."

Guan Lingyan was startled, "What?!"

Lin Chao babbled about what had happened, "That's about it. Song Ci suddenly said that he was going on vacation, but he was taken away on the first night, and we came back in a hurry. I'm here at Baocheng Building." After a pause, he glanced into the room again, and muttered softly, "What the hell is Zhong Jiuli going to do? He didn't tell me anything."

Guan Lingyan on the other end of the phone was silent for a while before he gradually digested the news, and many questions rushed to him at once.Why did Zhong Jiuli leave suddenly when his wound was not healed?If it's for healing, why didn't you say goodbye?Also, if he remembered correctly, the headquarters of the Tianshi Association is in Baocheng Building, what is Zhong Jiuli going to do?

After a while, he said, "Is Zhong Jiuli here? Give him the phone."

Lin Chao said dejectedly, "Not here."

Guan Lingyan collected his thoughts, "Well, please contact me if there is any new situation."

After hanging up the phone, Guan Lingyan hurried out, and as expected, Zhao Duzhi was not in the audience.He tried, called him, and it was always turned off.

His heart sank gradually, and if he guessed correctly, Zhao Duzhi also went to the headquarters of the Celestial Masters Association.

The closed door of the conference room was slowly opened, and everyone looked around, only to see Dong Wei in front, followed by a young man who was half a head taller than him.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to probing eyes.

Dong Wei strode forward and sat down at the main seat, and the young man behind him opened the bench next to him that had been vacant for many years and sat down.

Someone who couldn't hold back asked, "Are you Zhong Jiuli?"

There was an uproar below, but it quickly returned to silence.

Everyone was looking at Zhong Jiuli, some were curious, some were probing, some were waiting and watching, and some were putting on airs.

"Where's your grandfather? Why did he send you out?"

An unkind voice sounded.

Zhong Jiuli followed the voice, blinked slowly, then looked away, and said, "I have a way to lure Xu out."

There was a sudden silence, and Wang Changquan, who was skipped by him, looked annoyed, but before he could speak, Ye Wenqing asked first, "What can I do?"

Zhong Jiuli said coldly: "Xu is refining ghosts, and he holds eight ghosts who died unexpectedly, and he is short of the last one, and he can successfully refine them."

Dong Weirao knew Zhong Jiuli's purpose, but he couldn't help being terrified when he heard these words made public in such a straightforward manner.

Soon, someone raised a question, "How do you know that Xu is refining ghost spirits?"

It was Wang Changquan who had just been ignored by Zhong Jiuli who raised this question, and he couldn't wait to draw his attention to himself, "Does Xu know the art of ghosts and demons? Few people in the world of celestial masters have heard of it."

Zhong Jiuli still didn't give him a look, and continued: "Xu took away a person in Tianshi College, and that person was the fate of Tianshe, but Xu failed, and he was rescued, but as long as he appears again , Xu will definitely come to him again."

When he said this, Zhong Jiuli turned his eyes lightly, imprinted the faces of everyone present in his mind, and tried to see some clues from them.

When he was in the hot spring hotel, Lin Chao lived next door to Song Ci, but Xu only took Song Ci away.

There are only two possibilities, Xu is not interested in Lin Chao at all.Those who are really interested in Lin Chao are the people behind him.But without Yue Xiuqin's efforts to divert the tiger away from the mountain, it would be impossible for Xu to take away Song Ci.

In other words, the person behind the scenes used Yue Xiuqin to divert the tiger away from the mountain, but did not take away Lin Chao.

Because he was actively waiting for him to take the bait, and the bait was Song Ci.

He knew he would throw Lin Chao out and 'trick' Xu to come forward.

All of this is within that person's grasp, including him—it's just a pawn that he can't help himself.He must follow the script written by the man and fight a decisive battle with Xu.

He had seen through Zhao Duzhi's tricks a long time ago. Not only did he not take the bait, he even forced them to take the bait.

This man's scheming is terrifying.

But what is his purpose?

"Where is that man now?"

An old voice brought back Zhong Jiuli's thoughts, he looked for the voice, it was Ye Yunze's grandfather Ye Wenqing.

Zhong Jiuli collected his thoughts and said, "It's just outside."

There was an uproar again, Dong Wei cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Since we can lead out of Xu, we have to think of a surefire way. I think the best way is to use the power of a celestial master. After all, the strength of Xu cannot be underestimated."

Wang Changquan sneered, and said, "Isn't there Zhong Jiuli here? What did Zhao Duzhi say a few days ago? He said that none of us here together can compare to Zhong Jiuli alone. I think it is enough for him to entrust this battle of destroying the ruins to him." gone."

As soon as the words fell, a sassy voice sounded, "Yunyao Temple is willing to help you."

Zhao Duzhi also lazily raised his hand, "Qingyun Temple is willing to help."

Someone raised his head, and the rest of the Tianshi Temple couldn't be more shy, so they had to follow suit.

At this time, Zhong Jiuli suddenly said: "I want to know, who is the most powerful teacher in today's world?"
