Human factors... Qu Jianlei looked at the other person speechlessly and was silent for about ten seconds.
However, in the end, he was too lazy to say more and just nodded slightly, "You continue."
"Isn't that a bit unfair?" Lord Yuhua calmed down and said, "Communication is a two-way street. Shouldn't Lord Quling say something?"
He had already told the other party such important news, but he was so upset and had no reaction at all?
"I didn't plan to say it," Qu Jianlei raised his chin slightly and glanced out the door, "If you feel it's unfair, you can leave!"
"Tsk," Lord Wen Yuhua smacked his lips and finally came to his senses, "Lord Qu Ling, how did I offend you?"
Qu Jianlei looked at him speechlessly, "What do you think?"
"I really don't know about that," Wen Yu said very straightforwardly, "I hope you can point out what I did wrong!"
Qu Jianlei looked at him again. He couldn't sense anything unusual from the other person's expression or emotions.
However, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, and it seems a bit naive to expect them to reveal their true colors in these aspects.
"I have no obligation to give you any instructions," he shook his head slowly and stopped talking.
"I really don't know," Wen Yu Zhenxian frowned in distress.
He has always been aware that he is not very popular, but this is the path he chose himself and he has no regrets.
But he offended Hongyeling unknowingly... He really couldn't think of when he had done anything excessive.
Things were not smooth when the two sides first came into contact, but wasn't the result also okay?
So far, Guan Fei Zhenxian is still in the team studying the Heavenly Demon, and is the only cultivator from outside the three families in this team.
However, thinking of this nephew, Wen Yu Zhenxian found an idea: Since they both came from the Taoist Palace, why are they treated differently?
Just as he was thinking, he saw Master Qu Ling wave his hand slightly, obviously impatient and wanted to chase him away.
In a hurry, he didn't care about much else and spoke before the other party, "Is it because of the last time we went to the Forgotten Peninsula?"
"Heh," Qu Jianlei said, sounding like a smile, but his face darkened, "I'll give you one last chance!"
"The demon's unusual movements have nothing to do with me," Wen Yuhuazhu said without hesitation. No matter what, he wanted to distance himself from it as soon as possible.
Then he sighed, "Last time I suggested that you go to the Forgotten Peninsula, I actually had selfish motives."
Qu Jianlei remained silent, looking at the other person indifferently, with no expression in his eyes.
But no matter what, he did not urge the other party to leave, which in itself was a statement.
Lord Yuhua paused for a moment before asking again, "When Lord Quling went there for the first time, did you think it was really an out-of-body star tapir?"
"Hmm?" Qu Jianlei frowned slightly: Have you forgotten yourself again?
"Okay, I'll tell you," Wen Yu admitted decisively, "but this is a serious matter, so please keep it secret, Master Qu Ling."
After waiting for a while and seeing that the other party did not respond, he sighed again, "I have always suspected that someone is taking the wrong path to leave the body..."
Qu Jianlei's face was as gloomy as water, and there was no change on his expression.
Wen Yuhuazhu made up his mind, "Including this time's mutation of the demon, it may be manipulated by someone."
After he finished speaking, he let out a long breath, and his body seemed to have shrunk a few inches, as if his whole body had been drained.
The reception room fell into an eerie silence, and neither of them spoke.
After a long while, Qu Jianlei snorted and asked coldly, "So, you let the people from Hongye Ridge go and test it?"
He tends to believe that what the other person says is true because he has similar inferences.
And the fact that the other party has such a big secret and behaves in a somewhat strange way can...be barely explained.
To put it bluntly, Qu Jianlei even suspected that perhaps the three pavilion masters had similar guesses.
However, this matter was too big. Although he got along well with the Third Pavilion Master, they could not discuss it to such a deep level.
This has little to do with trust or not. In basic social etiquette, talking about intimate things with people you just met is a taboo.
Moreover, a cultivator who could make such an attempt to leave the body through non-normal means could only be from the One Hall and Four Sacred Mountains.
Once this matter is revealed, the people and things that may be involved...that would be an extraordinary headache.
Qu Jianlei understood all these situations, but he still couldn't tolerate it. This guy actually let the people from Hongyeling go and test it!
When Master Wen Yuhua heard his question, he breathed a sigh of relief - he finally made the right bet!
This secret has weighed on his heart for too long and is too heavy.
He was not worried about being questioned, but was worried that the other party would pretend not to understand or make it clear that they did not want to ask.
The content of the questioning was not good, but it was not that bad either. At least - Hongye Ridge had nothing to do with what he was worried about!
He thought for a moment before sighing, "How can I explain this? I dare not let anyone in the palace know about my suspicions."
"Because of the people and things involved, I can't guarantee that it has nothing to do with the Dao Palace..."
Therefore, even though he was one of the five masters, he could not use the power of the Taoist Palace, and if he used other forces, he would still have similar concerns.
Moreover, the other four major forces are comparable to the Dao Palace, and he may not be able to use them!
Before encountering Red Leaf Ridge, Lord Wen Yuhua had intentionally or unintentionally instigated other forces to explore the Forgotten Peninsula.
In order to conceal his true intentions, he developed his character into this form.
Those people went to take the risk, and no matter what the outcome was, he had this attitude and could turn against me at any time - did I let you go?
It can be imagined that he deliberately tried to curry favor with the Immortal Sanjiang and was willing to take the blame for the steward in order to make things easier.
However, Wen Yu was not satisfied with the results of those expeditions. He believed that it was due to the lack of strength of those people.
It was not until he met the Hongyeling team and discovered that this group of people was quite powerful that he came up with some new ideas.
What is particularly crucial is that this force is from Dongsheng, has a relatively clean foundation, and has no close relationship with Zhongzhou.
Although he designed Red Leaf Ridge for his first trip to the Forgotten Peninsula, he did not have high expectations for the harvest.
Because he thought that this was what the other party deserved for taking the risk. Compared with him, it was the accompanying Guan Fei Zhenxian who was a little bit mumbling.
Moreover, Wen Yu also went there in person. This was certainly a sign of his confidence in Hongyeling's strength, but wasn't this also a personal risk?
In the end he was also injured. Among the five people, only Jing Yuexin was slightly injured on the way to escape.
Anyway, once it's opened up, Master Yuhua feels that there's nothing he can't say about his little thoughts.
Later he found out that Hongyeling had no plans for another expedition, so he instigated it again, but he also provided relevant information, right?
The coordinates inside the Forgotten Peninsula are not easily obtained.
Everything in this world is based on cause and effect, and there is gain and loss.
Damn... After hearing this guy's explanation, Qu Jianlei really wanted to curse. So you are right?
But think about it again, if I were in this guy's shoes, I would probably... probably do the same.
Qu Jianlei was not sure whether what this guy said was all true, and he was not the kind of person who would simply believe what he heard.
The sense of powerlessness and relief expressed by the other party may not be true. At this age, who can't make a cameo appearance as an actor?
But no matter what, this set of rhetoric can basically explain a series of unreasonable phenomena.
Qu Lingzhu pondered for nearly half a minute before asking in a deep voice, "Why do you care so much about this?"
When asked by Yu Zhenxian, he said that his uncle died because of this, and his master who wanted to investigate the matter also disappeared mysteriously.
"Indeed, there are sufficient reasons," Qu Jianlei was not surprised. If a person wants to be obsessed with something, how could he not have the corresponding motivation?
The other party is already this old, even if he makes up a story, he can still come up with a tenable excuse.
He had no interest in questioning the authenticity, but instead asked another question, "Does the Sanjiang governor know about your intentions?"
"How can I let him know?" Wen Yu Zhenxian asked helplessly, "His foundation in the Dao Palace is much deeper than mine!"
In fact, it is not just a question of the depth of the roots, but the relationships in Sanjiang are complicated, and there are many disputes with the older generation.
To put it more bluntly, he was very worried that everyone might be the insider!
If he hadn't had this concern, he wouldn't have kept it secret and refused to tell the truth again and again.
Now he really couldn't hold it back any longer, and Lord Qu Ling was very obviously hostile to him, so he had to say it out.
As I said, Hongyeling is, after all, a force of Dongsheng, and they are very particular about their external dealings, so he made such a decision.
Qu Jianlei did not comment on his evaluation, but said after a moment's hesitation, "Tell me everything else you didn't say..."
He wasn't sure whether the other party was lying, but he was sure of one thing: he was definitely hiding something.
The most clever way of lying is to tell the truth but conceal the key points to mislead the listener.
However, this time, Wen Yu Zhenxian's attitude was very firm, "Some of them I can still talk about, but some of them I really can't talk about!"
"I won't say more. The title of Immortal Venerable cannot be mentioned casually. It's not good for me, and it may not be a good thing for you either."
Then his face straightened, "Someone in Cangwu did this, whether someone in the upper realm knew about it... I can't say for sure."
"But I tend to think that the probability that someone in the upper world knows about this is higher."
"I know you may not be afraid of one or two Immortal Lords, but that is to deal with alien races. In the world of immortal cultivation... human relations are a big net!"
What the hell! Qu Jianlei curled his lips helplessly. Cultivating immortals is indeed not just about fighting and killing.
He snorted, "I see that you think the Star Palace is more suspicious?"
Previously, a Jindan in the Star Palace was possessed by a demon. The reason has not been investigated clearly yet, but Wen Yu came here specifically for this matter.
"It may not be big, but it is there," Wen Yu answered without hesitation, "Hasn't Lord Qu Ling heard about it?"
Qu Jianlei blinked his eyes and asked, "What did you hear?"
"The Star Palace preserves the remains of a great immortal, and can grant opportunities to disciples at random!"
