Chapter 84 Something feels wrong

Zhu Xuanji snorted coldly: "You are the first to doubt me!"

"I use my golden eyes to monitor everything in the world. How can a mere flame block my sight?"

"I can see that the old ape has mastered a lot of magic skills, but he never uses them. He would rather risk his own life to protect his master."

"It's really a show of affection and righteousness!"

"How many of us humans can achieve this level?"

"I was so moved by this that I couldn't bear to see it die, so I treated it."

At this point, Zhu Xuanji's tone became more serious: "But it is precisely because I personally rescued it, not only observing it with my golden eyes, but also using my magic power to penetrate its body. Therefore, I am absolutely sure that the old ape is fine except for its serious injuries. There is absolutely no dark shadow demon cultivator hiding inside!"

Seeing that Zhu Xuanji was so sure of what he said, everyone fell silent again.

If this is true, there is no doubt about it.

The more likely possibility is that someone secretly released the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator ahead of time.

Fei Si's brows gradually frowned. He opened his mouth to speak, but then closed it again.

The Zhou family patriarch also frowned, but continued to ask: "Master Zhu, I dare to ask again, are you sure it is foolproof?"

"Is there no other magic or supernatural power in this world that can hide from the dual investigation of your golden eyes and magic power?"

Zhu Xuanji sneered: "If you say that, it's meaningless."

“Who can ensure that nothing goes wrong?”

"In this world, there are countless talented people, countless geniuses, countless magic spells, magical powers, and magic weapons. How can we know them all?"

"I can only tell you that I have mastered the talent of the Golden Eye, which is close to supernatural power. After joining the Divine Detective Division for more than ten years, I have only encountered three Golden Core cultivators who have been able to withstand the insight of my Golden Eye. Below the Golden Core level, no living creature can escape my sight."

Everyone was silent again.

Zhu Xuanji wanted to get rid of his doubts completely. He suggested: "Since some people don't trust me, it doesn't matter. Now let's go find that old ape and examine it ourselves. How about that?"

"That's the truth!" Chi Dun nodded.

"Okay." The Zhou family's ancestor also agreed.

Fei Si's heart skipped a beat.

He thought of Ning Zhuo again.

After this, Ning Zhuo took the initiative to propose to persuade Yuan Er to surrender, and used threats and bribes to force Yuan Er to kill the old monkey.

I don't know how far it's progressing now?
When Fei Si thought that Ning Zhuo still had his token in his hand, he became increasingly anxious.

He appeared calm on the surface: "I also have some doubts about this matter, it would be good to witness it with my own eyes."

"Well, Chi Dun, you will continue to take charge of the situation and lead the other Jindan cultivators to continue the search. There may be people hiding underground, and we must not let them go easily!"

Fei Si also invited Zhou family patriarch, Zhu Xuanji, and himself to investigate Yuan Dasheng together.

Chi Dun was dissatisfied: "Why should I stay here? You are the one who should be in charge of this place!"

Fei Si only needed one sentence to make him obey: "The Lord Mayor appointed me to be in charge of the Fire Persimmon Festival. Don't you want to listen to my orders?"

Chi Dun snorted coldly and could only obey orders.

The three Jindan flew to the Monkey Head Gang’s base together.

Yuan Er was still kneeling on the floor in front of the bed, looking dazed and with dull eyes.

Suddenly, three golden elixirs descended from the sky, pierced through the roof, and looked down at him condescendingly.

Yuan Er was so frightened that he trembled.

"Where is that old monkey in your family?" Zhu Xuanji swept the backyard with his spiritual sense and had a bad feeling in his heart.

Yuan Er's face turned pale and he burst into tears: "He's dead. My Uncle Monkey is dead!"

Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with golden light, and he asked sternly, "I gave you the Late Autumn Life-Saving Pill, so how could that old ape die?"

Yuan Er was so nervous that he dared not hide anything and tremblingly told out everything.

After hearing this, Zhu Xuanji was so angry that his face turned pale. He pointed at Yuan Er and said, "You ungrateful thing!"

He turned to look at Fei Si and said, "Good, you're good Fei Si. You're quite interesting for giving me this kind of look right away." Fei Si was already secretly happy in his heart, "I didn't expect Ning Zhuo to be so quick. Well done!"

He had regained his dignity and was in a good mood. He narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Thank you, Master Zhu, for your compliment."

"I am also thinking about Huoshi Xiancheng."

"After all, it's a bit cruel to always use monkey pets to pick the fire persimmons. The Third Sect Master is kind-hearted. If he hadn't left behind the Lava Fairy Palace, the Fire Persimmon Mountain wouldn't have become the blessed land it is today."

"As the younger generation, we must also deeply understand the spirit of the Three Masters. Letting these monkeys go and making full use of mechanical creations is for the sake of the people's lives. It is a compassionate heart and a virtuous policy."

Fei Si played dumb, pretending that she couldn't hear Zhu Xuanji's sarcasm, and praised herself generously.

Zhu Xuanji was so angry that his breathing became rapid and his face turned pale with a hint of blue.

Faith felt more relieved.

This is not entirely a matter of face.

The confrontation between righteous cultivators could not be as direct and bloody as that between them and the evil cultivators.

Therefore, these confrontations under the rules became a sign of judging the strength of the monks.

Fame and fortune, fame and fortune. Fame often brings real benefits.

Fei Si was forced by Zhu Xuanji to open the magic circle in public. Such a weak performance will make many people more inclined to Zhu Xuanji in the future. This endangered Fei Si's authority and reduced his influence.

In essence, it is also reducing the influence of the City Lord's Mansion and the current City Lord Meng Kui.

Zhu Xuanji came on behalf of the royal family and the Divine Capture Department, and was in a game of chess with Meng Kui's faction.

If Feisi does not fight back, precisely within the rules of the game, Meng Kui will be disappointed.

Now, he has turned the game around, which has offset the previous negative impact and also made him feel relieved.

The Zhou family ancestor frowned, not wanting to get involved in the fight between Fei Si and Zhu Xuanji. As a third party, it was too early to make a decision.

He wanted to solve the problem of the black shadow demon cultivator, so he said, "Since the old ape has been taken away, why are we still staying here?"

"Brother Fei, where is your envoy now?" The Zhou family ancestor asked Fei Si.

The Immortal City formation greatly suppressed his spiritual consciousness, but Fei Si had his own authority. He immediately used the formation to expand his spiritual consciousness and sensed his own token.

"Follow me!" Feisi took the lead and flew away from the Monkey Head Gang.

Zhu Xuanji and the Zhou family ancestor followed closely behind.

Three rainbows of light flew across the sky and landed on the flying disc workshop.

Zhu Xuanji stretched out his hand and grabbed, and suddenly an invisible force lifted the roof, revealing Ning Zhuo and Chen Cha.

The old monkey that the three Jindan were looking for was lying on the pedestal of the mechanism. All his blood and essence had been drained and he was about to be dismembered.

"Stop it immediately!" the Zhou family ancestor shouted.

Ning Zhuo and Chen Cha were shocked and hurried to greet him.

The three Jindan cultivators ignored the two of them and sent out their spiritual sense to scan Yuan Dasheng's corpse comprehensively.

No traces of any hidden demon cultivators were found.

"He has indeed practiced magic skills, and it seems to be quite good." said the ancestor of the Zhou family.

Zhu Xuanji confirmed his previous monitoring results again. He looked at the old ape's corpse with regret, and then turned his gaze to Ning Zhuo: "You are a good speaker, kid. Yuan Er is also a fool, who was easily persuaded by you."

Ning Zhuo took a deep breath and said with a nervous look on his face: "Master Zhu, please understand. Cooperation between me and Yuan Er is a win-win situation! I want to make money, and Yuan Er wants to keep his position as the leader of the gang."

"Please forgive me for speaking so frankly. My Lord, you have been kind and righteous in helping me. But is it really a good thing for it? Given its loyalty to its master, it would not want to be a burden to its master, right?"

"Hmph, you're so sharp-tongued!" Zhu Xuanji's impression of Ning Zhuo dropped drastically.

Fei Si, who was standing by, stroked his beard and became more and more appreciative of Ning Zhuo.

Finding nothing suspicious, the three Jindan flew away immediately.

Fei Si hurried back to the persimmon forest, but Zhu Xuanji paused in the middle of the journey.

He frowned and thought hard: "I always feel like something is not right!"
