Chapter 408 The doubt of Su Family
Hearing this, Qing Weiyue panicked a little. But he still held his fists, and said with a smile, “I am Qing Weiyue, and I came from Meng Sect. Greetings to the elder of Su Family.”
The elder frowned at once after he heard that. Seeing that, Qing Weiyue said again, “You must be venerable in Su Family since I heard that the more patterns of sun and moon on the breast of the Su Family elder’s clothing, the more respected he is. It’s my great honor to meet you here.”
The elder felt flattered, and his eyebrows stretched spontaneously. He said softly, “I am Su Mengqing of the seventh branch of Su Family.”
“You are the Second Elder, Su Mengqing. I’ve heard a lot about you!” Qing Weiyue said in surprise.
Su Mengqing was more genial after hearing the words. He laughed and said, “It’s just a bubble reputation. Please follow me.”
“Yes!”
Qing Weiyue followed him immediately and sighed with a relief in his heart. He didn’t expect that he could deal with Su Mengqing so easily.
He also realized that Meng Sect was just a small potato for Su Family. Anyone could get through as long as he or she could explain the current situation of Ni Sect clearly.
“For them, Ning Dawei and I are just the nonent.i.ties.”
During his self-mockery, Qing Weiyue followed Su Mengqing through the southward room of central hall, and got to the chamber directly behind Yiyun Yard.
The noise faded away and was replaced by silence after they entered.
Qing Weiyue saw some sound insulation tactical matrix runes carved on the door frames. Staying calm, he really found that many lords and elders of small sects sat here.
He cleared his mind privately and quickly, and confirmed that there was nothing went wrong. Then, he relaxed a little and exchanged courtesies with Su Mengqing. Then he chose a seat, seated himself and waited.
Su Mengqing’s smile disappeared immediately after he came to the side hall.
“What’s wrong? Mengqing?”
In the side hall, a middle-aged pract.i.tioner who dressed appropriately and looked proud with great dignity came in. It seemed that he was in his thirties, however, he was already over 2000 years old.
“Master!” Su Mengqing bowed instantly when he came to his sense and saw the middle-aged unfathomable man.
The man was Su Yuanhai, the master of the seventh branch of Su Family!
Su Yuanhai was also a talent of Su Family in those days. After 2000 years’ ups and downs, finally he charged Su Family hundreds of years ago.
“You look a little nervous. What’s the matter?”
Su Yuanhai came over. He was peaceful, but Su Mengqing felt a sense of pressure.
Subconsciously, Su Mengqing lowered his head and said, “It’s a little strange. Meng Sect used to appoint Ning Dawei to contact with us, and promised that he would come to discuss how to deal with Ni Sect this time. However, it is an elder, who called Qing Weiyue instead of Ning Dawei.”
Su Yuanhai didn’t change his impression. He waved gently and an offish young man in black came in immediately.
“The person of the Hidden Hall of Head Family!”
Su Mengqing was astonished. The indifferent young man had approached and bowed to Su Yuanhai without saying anything.
Su Yuanhai also knew his character, and asked frankly, “Is Meng Sect normal these days? Do you know a man named Qing Weiyue?”
“Lord, please wait a moment.”
The man in black answered with a bland voice and took out a carrier rune quickly. He gave it spiritual power after craving, and then it disappeared in the void immediately.
Another carrier rune appeared just a few minutes later. The cold young man handed it to Su Yuanhai and turned away without a look.
“Ah…”
Su Mengqing was embarra.s.sed to see that person was rude to the master.
However, Su Yuanhai waved his hand indifferently and threw the rune to Su Mengqing after he read it. Su Mengqing read it and was surprised to say,
“Ning Dawei is dead? Qing Weiyue is the new lord of the sect? It’s so…”
Su Yuanhai nodded, “Qing Weiyue controlled the strange book matrix of Meng Sect secretly. It’s not surprising that Ning Dawei lost. However, we should sound out him for caution. Did he suspect you just now?”
Su Mengqing shook his head hastily, “Never! I am even friendly to him for deluding. If he really has some tricks, he will be exposed after directly testing!”
“Well, I’ll handle it myself. The matter of Ni Sect is momentous.” Su Yuanhai said with a deep sight, “If we can’t control such a small force, we will be despised by other branches of Su Family!”
It came to deep night gradually.
Qing Weiyue was still unaware of the coming danger. After waiting for a long time, he finally saw the top men of Su Family led by Su Yuanhai coming to the conference hall.
The hall was noisy before they came. But it suddenly became extreme silent at that moment.
Su Yuanhai sat down in the center seat and said with a smile, “Thanks for coming here today. We are mostly old friends except for this elder of Meng Sect. So, I will cut it short. We hold this conference at late night just for Ni Sect.”
Hearing that, many people flickered their eyes, and said to themselves that it didn’t beyond their expectation.
A piece of news about Su Zini’s death had been spread. People had speculated that Su Family would fight with Ni Sect, and now it was confirmed.
“But before the conference, I have a question.”
Su Yuanhai said with a smile, and looked at Qing Weiyue with deep meaning.
For an instant, everyone focused on Qing Weiyue.
Qing Weiyue was a little fl.u.s.tered with his face changed a little. But he was still calm. He stood up, held his fists, and said, “What’s your opinion? The seventh Master Su.”
“I have no comments.”
Su Yuanhai’s smile faded, “I am just inquisitive that Ning Dawei promised to come personally to show his sincerity at the beginning, but now just an elder came. Isn’t Su Family significant for Meng Sect?”
Qing Weiyue was sweated on his head at once and his mind was full of various thoughts.
Was he suspected?!
Or was he really angry at the rudeness of Meng Sect?
How should he do?
Qing Weiyue took a deep breath and recalled Su Li’s words.
“Calm down!”
“You have to cheat yourself first before cheating others, understand?”
“Cheat myself… If I were the new lord of Meng Sect, what would I say right now?”
After a few breaths, Qing Weiyue raised his head suddenly with a firm sight. Looked at Su Yuanhai’s eyes and said in a deep voice, “Master Su, please forgive me. Something bad has happened in Meng Sect.”
Yeah?
“I would like to know it.” Su Yuanhai’s brow wrinkled.
Qing Weiyue relaxed himself and immersed in the character. He scratched his head and said with embarra.s.sment.
“I’ve been conflicted with Ning Dawei. I can’t stand him due to the grudge for centuries and had him killed… Now I’m the new lord of Meng Sect, and I am willing to make Meng Sect as an attached sect of Su Family. You are so inclusive and please pardon me.”
“I see.”
What Qing Weiyue said was all the same as the intelligence, and the doubt of Su Yuanhai disappeared. He asked with great interests, “What do you think of Ni Sect?”
Qing Weiyue answered seriously, “Ni Sect has a great ambition and its next target is probably our sect. Master, I will try my best to support you to destroy it.”
“…”
“Hahahaha… The little old man you just took in is so interesting and deliberate. He is a person with ability. However, his cultivation is too low.”
Black Lotus couldn’t stop laughing in Tactical Matrix for Camouflage, which was on the roof of conference hall.
Su Li also smiled, “I am a little surprised. I am shorthanded at present. Cultivation is not a problem as long as he is loyal enough.”
Black Lotus rolled his eyes, “You have so many celestial stones, but you don’t offer some to me.”
Su Li said with an ostensible smile, “Those celestial stones are not useful for you, so they are better for me to recycle.”
“… You bully me, Su Li!”
“You are not a person.”
“…”
In the next morning.
Qing Weiyue returned to Meng Sect by flying his sword. He was so tired that he felt like he was in a dream when he looked at the familiar door and wall.
“You are back. Come to meet me.”
Qing Weiyue was spirited when he heard the familiar voice of Su Li.
It was not a dream!
He flew down the front hall behind the mountain of Meng Sect. He cleaned up sweat and made his clothes clean with an easy skill, and then he walked in.
There were several candles lit in the dark grand hall.
There was still the familiar and lazy little figure on the throne. She opened the attractive eyes when she heard the sound.
“Good job.”
Qing Weiyue, who was about to report the situation, was shocked when he heard the voice.
She knew that?!
“I certainly know. How could I believe you only by your words and let you finish the tasks yourself? If so, our cultivation circle would be rather too simple.”
Qing Weiyue was afraid by her words, and he was grateful that he had no other thoughts at first.
However, he was scared from the bottom of his heart at the same time.
The conference hall was isolated by big tactical matrix. The Grand Elder didn’t enter the hall, but she knew everything which happened inside. She was truly redoubtable.
“Well, you will have the reward as you are frightened for that. Let’s talk about their plans first.”
“Since you have already known…” Qing Weiyue felt strange due to the words of Su Li.
“I want you to tell me.”
Su Li interrupted Qing Weiyue, who stopped immediately and thought for a while, telling the whole plan which they discussed last night.
…
Qing Weiyue walked out of the palace with much sweat an hour later and smiled bitterly. But he left excitedly when he saw the universe ring in his hand.
In the hall, Su Li was lying on the throne and held her earlobe by one hand. With the jade map slips left by Qing Weiyue in her other hand, she thought a lot and her eyes glinted.
“Cangjin Valley? It’s so unfamiliar. Did it appear after my death? I’d like to see how Su Family will lead me into the deception in three days…”
