The more afraid a person was of death, the closer he would be to death. On the other hand, those who felt that they were in a dangerous place and that they had no chance of survival tended to meet their doom and turn the tables. Such was the fate that awaited them.
There was an extremely long altar table in the large hall, and it was filled with portraits of people. In front of the altar was a smaller altar table filled with fruit, pastries, and beef and mutton. In front of the table stood a man dressed in a nine chapter imperial robe with a jade crown on his head. The man was around forty years old and had a handsome face. His face was fair and it wasn't hard to tell that he was someone who lived like a prince. This man's imposing figure, under the decorations of his luxurious clothing, appeared very serious, causing people to feel intimidated upon seeing him.
After the man with the jade crown paid his respects to the deity statue, three people stood respectfully behind him. The three of them stood in a row, with a woman in front of them. It was Gongsun Yuxia.
”Have you brought Ye Mo back?” The man with the jade crown faced the statue, his tone was polite to others, but it seemed like he was giving orders.
Gongsun Yu Xia laughed: ”That reckless person actually killed Zhao Chong Li. That's good too, no matter what he did to us, it was all for our own gain.”
”Find someone to treat his injury.”
”Brother.” ”” Gongsun Yuxia was puzzled. ” It's fine if you don't want me to kill him, but you still want me to save him? ”
”A cold leaf cannot die. We have already offended the Jade Pavilion, they will not let this go easily. As long as Ye Mo Han lives, we have a trump card in our hands. In the martial world, only Ye Wen Han would dare to openly fight against a Jade Pavilion. ” This man was Gongsun Yuxia's older brother, Gongsun Chun Qiu. He had been respected by the people of the martial arts world for abiding by etiquette and acting impartially.
”Little sister understands.”
”The Kongtong Sect is currently without a leader, but the Red Peak is still there. Don't try to win them over yourself, just send two of your trusted aides.” Gongsun Chun Qiu changed the topic. ”How is the situation outside?”
Gongsun Yu Xia's left rear said, ”The Sect Leader, Sun Mubai, visited Shaolin. He stayed in Shaolin for five days, probably to discuss the capture of Chi Feng and Ye Peihan. The Sect Leader of the Hua Shan Sect didn't say anything about Ye Mo Han being the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion. On the other hand, Mo Xi Yan, the young miss of the Mo family, openly questioned the rumours in the martial arts world, proving that Ye Mo Han was not the pavilion master of the Emerald Jade Pavilion. ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu frowned slightly and said, ”Mo Xi Yan, is that the only daughter of Mo Yunfan who wanted to elope with Righteous Wind when she was 14 years old?”
”Yes.” ”Yes, sir,” replied the man at the back right of Gongsun Yuxia. This girl must have fallen for Ye Mo Han. ”
Gongsun Chun Qiu heaved a long sigh, and said bitterly: ”The world is going down, and people's hearts are not as ancient as they used to be. How can a girl's house be so casual? Mo Yunfan, Mo Yunfan, you really don't know how to discipline your daughter. ”
There was a long silence. For Gongsun Chun Qiu, his subordinates could only speak when he asked. At other times, they had to shut up. Gongsun Yuxia was no exception.
Gongsun Chun Qiu heaved another sigh of relief and waved his hand towards the back. The two people behind Gongsun Yuxia saluted and left. Gongsun Yuxia stood at her original position, wanting to say something but not daring to.
”What else do you want?” Gongsun Chun Qiu turned around and said as he stared at Gongsun Yu Xia.
Tears welled up in Gongsun Yuxia's eyes. ”Uncle Dan is dead. I've already gotten my hands on the Hornless Pan. It's about time for you to fulfill your promise, isn't it?”
It could be seen that Gongsun Yuxia was very upset. Her words were practically begging Gongsun Chun Qiu.
