Chapter 74: The Traceless Interrogation
In front of the steps, the Supreme Elder's somewhat turbid eyes flashed through a faint light. He quickly glanced at the three of them, looked back at Xiao Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, what are you talking about, why are you stunned?"
Xiao Wan'er looked back at Lu Li and said angrily: "Master, you, when did you accept Lu Li as a disciple? Why don't you know about it?"
The Supreme Elder coughed, as if he was looking at Xiao Wan'er, and as if he was looking at everyone, saying, "Silly disciple, I have accepted you as a closed disciple, so how could I accept others as my disciple?"
After saying that, the eyes swept towards Lu Zhui and Wang Sanpang again. Both of them lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him, but they all reacted again. Lu Zhui subconsciously raised his head, and Wang Sanpang let go of his fists with his clenched tightness.
Lu Li also quickly glanced at the Supreme Elder, and saw him retracting his eyes, but before that, he was sure that it was a sure look.
Thinking of the trap he had put on Wuhen before, I immediately understood everything. I was both admired and scared in my heart, and I was more cautious about this upright old man.
Just imagine, if the Supreme Elder used normal means to interrogate Wang Sanpang and Lu Zhui in front of everyone, they would definitely refuse to admit it and not say anything, and they might force him out as a loyal minister.
And now, on the surface, he and Xiao Wan'er only had a very simple question and answer, but in fact, Lu Zhui and Wang Sanpang showed their strength and got the answer he wanted.
But the starting reason for these two questions and answers was Xiao Wan'er. If she hadn't grabbed her in, everything wouldn't have been so natural and smooth.
But the most natural thing is that just when he was about to escape, she just happened to enter the door, as if he had already calculated that he would run away and was guarding at the door in advance.
Moreover, she promised him twice before that she would not hurt him. Her current behavior is undoubtedly fulfilling her promise.
So is it said that today's play that only he can understand is not arranged by Xiao Wuyu, a righteous and wise old man, but by Xiao Wan'er, a cruel and cunning mad woman?
Thinking of this, Lu Li couldn't help but feel cold on his back. He felt as if he was not wearing any clothes. He was seen through the crazy woman, inside and out. There was no secret in front of her.
She couldn't help but look at her, but she also looked over with a proud look in her eyes, and there was a hint of vague smile, and asked, "Then why do you mean you, Master, that's my junior brother?"
The Supreme Elder touched his beard and looked at the sky slantedly, as if he had remembered something that had happened for a long time, saying, "What's so strange about this? I have a close friend to his master, Lord Niugu. If you are a brother, his disciple is my disciple, and naturally your junior brother."
"I see."
After Xiao Wan'er finished speaking, she strode over and said, "Junior Brother Lu, I'm sorry, I only now know that you are the disciple of Lord Niu Gu.
He is upright and kind, so the disciples he teaches are naturally not bad. I misunderstood you just now, so please forgive me."
Lu Li looked at her serious face and promised in his heart that he would never trust her easily in the future, otherwise he would not know how he died, and he pretended to reply: "Senior Sister Xiao, it's okay."
Xiao Wan'er smiled and turned around, looked at the Supreme Elder and said, "Master, I heard that my junior brother usually takes care of Uncle Niu in the valley. I wonder what Master asked him to come here today?"
The Supreme Elder shone his eyes on everyone, as if he had completely ignored Lu Zhui and Wang Sanpang, and asked loudly: "Do you also want to know that I have been in seclusion for so many years, and as soon as I came out of seclusion recently, why did I ask you to come?"
Everyone remained silent and nodded. The Supreme Elder then looked at Lu Zhui and Wang Sanpang. Their eyes were a little complicated, but they both pretended to be calm, just pretending to be loyal.
The Supreme Elder stopped his eyes on Lu Li, which made the two feel guilty again, but he said, "Actually, the reason is very simple.
Now my Tiandao Sect is in trouble, but you are the youngest generation of Tiandao Sect, but you lack the spirit of fighting and fighting. In this beast tide, you did not perform very well.
Only the three people in front of me performed well, especially Lu Li, the disciple of the Ox Valley Master, who not only gave up the doctor to take medicine, but also used strange medicine to help me comfort and drive away the crazy monsters.
Of course, as a disciple of Tianlan Clan, Lu Zhui was also remarkable in his performance this time, and his performance was excellent, while the seventh disciple Wang Sanpang showed a rare spirit of sacrificing himself as a human being.
Therefore, I decided to take this opportunity to commend the three of them well. I also hope that you can take them as an example, not be afraid of difficulties, and do your part for my Tiandao Sect. I will not treat you badly."
When everyone heard this, they immediately understood the reason why the beast tide receded. They all thanked the Supreme Elder for his life-saving grace. They did not doubt anything. They expressed their desire to repay the kindness of the Tiandao Sect with their death.
Lu Zhui and Wang Sanpang also breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to express their loyalty. Only Lu Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart about the strategy of the Xiao family's grandchildren.
In this way, he not only protected him, but also perfectly avoided the fact that Xiao Wan'er was almost insulted by Jing Xiao, and he was truly a master among the masters.
Since the purpose has been achieved, the subsequent commendation will proceed very quickly. Although the three of them have great achievements, they all give the same things. They are all ten talismans made by the Supreme Elder, and they are not valuable things.
However, Xiao Wuyu is a powerful man in the Nascent Soul Realm and an Supreme Elder. As young disciples, the three of them can obtain such things not only a symbol of honor, but to a certain extent, they also have a little more ability to save their lives.
After receiving the reward, the Supreme Elder said another word of cheering up. When the huge wooden door creaked open again, everyone left with regret.
Lu Li kept thinking about what kind of person Xiao Wuyu was, and didn't pay much attention to other people's reactions. After putting the talisman in his arms, he kept thinking about things in a daze.
When the door made a heavy creaking sound, he came to his senses and was about to leave, but he felt his feet pulling back and looking back, Xiao Wan'er stepped on his heel with her toes and kept winking him.
Although he thought that she had no good intentions in his heart, Wang Sanpang kept looking back again, probably because he wanted to prove something or flatter him, so he could only stop.
When everyone had left, Xiao Wan'er suddenly smiled and said, "How is the puppy, I didn't lie to you, are you?"
Lu Li looked back and saw that at some point, the Supreme Elder had left, only Fairy Xue Ning stood not far away, looking at the two of them with the look that had nothing to do with her.
