Chapter 465 Reasonably

Chapter 465 Reasonably

Upon learning that he had killed the wrong person, Elder Zhang was stunned for a moment before returning to his cold and arrogant demeanor:

"Let's not talk about whether the little ghost I 'accidentally killed' knew the whereabouts of Xian'er. Even if it really didn't lie, it doesn't matter if it dies."

Tian Lin did not feel much regret over Su Shaoqing's death while holding the sword, and naturally he would not argue with Elder Zhang over an outsider.

He said decisively: "According to what the woman said, the fairy was taken to the Su family's tomb. And the Su family tomb happens to be in this mountain."

"Su family tomb?"

Elder Zhang looked at Tian Lin in surprise, making sure that Tian Lin had not said anything wrong.

Tian Lin knew what Elder Zhang was suspicious about, so he repeated to Elder Zhang everything Su Shaoqing had said while holding the sword.

Elder Zhang, who had listened to the whole story, nodded and said, "If that woman is not lying, then Xian'er's birth this time is probably related to Wang Yanyu."

Tian Lin nodded, but then questioned: "Disciple originally thought so - but after thinking about it, I can't figure out what Wang Yanyu's motive is!"

At the beginning, when Wang Yanyu had not yet become enemies with Zhaixingzi, because of her infatuation with Zhaixingzi, it was out of love that she helped Zhaixingzi get rid of Mei Xiangu.

But now?

Wang Yanyu hated Zhaixingzi to the core, and Mei Xiangu should have shared the same hatred with her.

Even if the two were not allies, there was no reason for them to harm Mei Xiangu.

Moreover, in fact, Mei Xiangu treated Wang Yanyu quite well and was willing to help her guard Beiye County.

Moreover, the existence of Mei Xiangu can also improve Wang Yanyu's status in front of the Su family and other aristocratic families. Wang Yanyu, what reason do you have to deal with Mei Xiangu?
"Although the female ghost is dead, there are still these evil spirits summoning her spirit - as long as Xian'er is really in this mountain, then we will find the Su family's tomb sooner or later."

Tian Lin didn't say anything, because if the Su family's tomb was really here, even if there were no evil spirits, the worst that could happen was to search the entire mountain range -

For a Nascent Soul expert, turning over a mountain is time-consuming and laborious, but compared to the benefits, what is the point of saving time and a little effort?
"Zhou Bingsheng is dead, and his notice may not be effective for too long. So we have to observe the movements of these evil spirits while the notice is still effective to rule out which places may not contain the Su family tomb."

As Elder Zhang was speaking, he was already flying higher and higher, and was standing in the clouds over the mountains, looking down at what was happening below.

Tian Lin frowned slightly, wondering if he was overthinking it.

But since he knew there was the Su family tomb in the mountains, Elder Zhang changed his name from looking for the Fairy Mei to looking for the Su family tomb.

Although Mei Xiangu can be found by finding the Su family tomb, there is a big difference between whether you are going through the trouble to find the Su family tomb or to find Mei Xiangu.

Tian Lin didn't know what treasures were hidden in the Su family tomb.

But the Su family was also a big family, and many Nascent Soul masters were born there.

The clan tomb is the root of a clan, not to mention the burial objects contained therein.

Just the corpses of the powerful Yuanying masters buried in the clan tomb are also a huge fortune.

Tian Lin was not easily tempted by these things, it was nothing more than he had the trump card of the entry. He knew that as long as he followed the steps, he would be able to improve his cultivation safely, so he was not willing to take risks easily.

But for other people, they have no entry. If they don't seek opportunities and fight for their lives, how can they have the chance to rise?
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why Elder Zhang, who had no relatives to help him, became interested in the Su family tomb.

After thinking for a moment, Tian Lin flew to the clouds calmly and followed Elder Zhang to watch the evil spirits below.

As Elder Zhang said, most of these evil spirits were out of control after Zhou Bingsheng's death. Wandering souls from high to low cultivation levels began to leave the team one after another and drift in all directions.

Tian Lin and Elder Zhang ignored the departing wandering souls and instead looked at the remaining wandering souls, searching for the remaining places they had never set foot on in the mountains.

Unfortunately, this mountain range was incredibly large, and until it was almost dark and all the evil spirits had been dispersed, there were still many hilltops that had not been searched thoroughly.

In the distance, a group of cultivators were approaching.

They were the first to notice the movements of these evil spirits, so they all ran over here.

After seeing Tian Lin and Elder Zhang, these cultivators all breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them asked, "These evil spirits were summoned by Master Tian and Senior Zhang, right?"

It was unclear whether this person was sincere or just trying to flatter someone when he said, "No wonder there was such a big commotion. We thought a powerful god-transforming expert had appeared somewhere."

Elder Zhang on the side said: "Yes, the Su family once had a god-transforming ancestor."

Elder Zhang's words were incoherent, and for a moment the monk didn't know how to respond.

It was Tian Lin who asked the monk, "Are you all here to look for Senior Sister Mei? Do you have any clues?"

The monk heard this and didn't know whether he was sincere or just trying to win credit. He looked sad and said, "We have traveled to many mountains and villages, but not only have we failed to find Miss Mei, we have also lost many lives. My wife was killed by an evil spirit when we were looking for her."

Tian Lin was moved by what he said, and he said, "If you can find Fairy Mei this time, I will reward you handsomely."

The monk wiped away his nonexistent tears and said with a smile, "Master Tian, ​​what you said sounds like I'm taking credit for my wife's death."

"You mean, the commotion here has attracted the attention of Kitano County?"

While Tian Lin was talking to the monk, Elder Zhang, who had just been speaking incoherently, asked again.

The monk was very embarrassed, but he did not dare to disobey Elder Zhang.

He nodded and said, "Yes, we saw that it was getting late, so we had already returned to the city. But the commotion here was too loud, and the noble families in the city noticed the situation here, so they sent a few of us to investigate.

Now that we know that this matter was caused by Elder Hetian Zhenren, we can go back and report without any worries."

Elder Zhang nodded and said, "A lot of people must have died in the search for Xian'er this time, right?"

The monk said, "There are too many evil spirits outside. It is indeed very dangerous. As far as I know, three out of ten people in the city who were dispatched this time died."

“That was really tragic.”

Elder Zhang asked the monk again, "If you die here, will the people of Beiye County suspect that it was me who did it?"

His words were so incomprehensible that not only the monk was stunned, but also the several monks who followed him were stunned.

One of them smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior, stop joking. Why would you attack us for no reason? Besides, we are working for you and the Daoist Sect. It's fine if you don't want to reward us, but there is no reason for you to kill us juniors."

Elder Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, logically I will not do anything to you. If you die, others will only suspect that you were killed by evil spirits. After all, there are indeed many evil spirits here, and it seems very dangerous."
