Chapter 282 (2/2)

This question came up in her mind, and she was shocked. How could she question them in her heart in front of the patriarch and elders?

She felt that it was a blasphemy to Wuzong, and immediately lowered her head in shame.

”In addition, you can inquire about the identity of this mysterious man when you leave the palace. Maybe there will be a clue. Since this man is a cultivator and his accomplishments are not weak, we can't let it go.” Said the patriarch.When mentioning the identity of the mysterious man, Wu couldn't help but think of the jade token. He felt a move in his heart. He just wanted to say the jade pendant, but looked at several elders and swallowed the words.

The patriarch noticed her look and said quietly, ”OK, so far today, all the elders will send people to keep a close eye on her when they go back. Now the situation is getting worse and worse. There must be more than one successor left by the demon clan. Maybe there are other people who have been inherited by the demon clan, so we have to prevent them from calling the demon clan to the world in other places.”

”Yes, patriarch, it's really lucky this time. If we didn't find out by chance that terrorists might be supported by monks, then we would not have found the terrorist's base camp and destroyed their ritual call.” An elder exclaimed.

Wu's mind moved. She wondered why the patriarch sent her to the military. She had realized that the terrorist organization was related to the cultivator, but only investigated the matter with the help of the military.

However, it's a fluke. But if Tang Zheng didn't kill the head of the terrorist organization in that courtyard, I'm afraid that she would have known the news earlier, and might have acted before the sacrifice, so as to successfully stop the sacrifice.

Therefore, she has no good feelings for Tang Zheng.

But she didn't think that if they got to the valley earlier, the terrorists would fight back, and the demons would take the opportunity to escape, then disappear without trace, and then carry out sacrifice calls in other places, so that the demons could quietly and safely come to the world, and the situation would be more serious than now.

The elders retreated, and the patriarch walked to the rear of the meeting hall. Wu followed him step by step. When the two men came to a garden behind them, the patriarch stopped and looked at the colorful garden and said, ”you seem to have something else to say to me?”

”Yes, Lord, I almost couldn't come back this time. The mysterious man obviously wanted to kill me and hurt the killer without hesitation.”

”Oh.” The patriarch was slightly surprised, ”why did you come back alive?”

”Because I saw a jade pendant.” Wu said in silence.

”What jade pendant can save your life.”

”A jade plate with the word” Wu ”engraved on it.” After Wu finished, he stared at the patriarch closely.

He was stunned, and his momentum changed suddenly. He turned to look at Wu. His eyes seemed to be able to pass through time and space and fall on Wu.

Even if she was born with martial arts, she felt that she would fall into the ground under the pressure of this look, and a trace of fear spread from the bottom of her heart.

She did not know why her words would cause such a big response from the patriarch, but at the moment, she did not dare to speak, only lowered her head deeply.

After a while, the pressure disappeared. She slowly raised her head and found that the master's face had returned to normal. Looking at her, she asked, ”do you mean that monk has that jade pendant?”

”Yes, on his neck.” Said Wu.

”Describe his appearance again.”

Martial arts try to recall every detail of each other's appearance, and then try to restore this face with language.

The patriarch was silent, but his eyebrows were locked tightly.

”My Lord, this jade pendant seems to be very similar to that one on you.” Wu said carefully, and then his eyes fell on the jade plate on the waist of the patriarch.

this jade peas like as two peas of Tang Zheng's size, and the patterns on them are the same, obviously from the same engraver's hands. The only difference is the word above, which is not a word of ”Wu” but a ”Zong”.

Wu looked as like as two peas in the childhood, so he would recognize the jade necks on Tang's neck at a glance. If it were not for that word, the two jade peas were exactly alike.

The patriarch conveniently took the jade pendant off his waist and looked at it directly. His eyes became very deep and seemed to be deeply recalled.

”Master, is that jade pendant also the property of the martial clan?” Wu asked carefully. At the beginning, she insisted that Tang Zheng's jade plate was the property of the martial family, which was a kind of preconceived thought. But now in front of the patriarch, she dare not be so arbitrary.

The patriarch pondered for a long time and nodded heavily: ”it's really the thing of Wu clan. It's a pair of jade pendants. One of them is Wu clan. The name of Wu clan comes from these two jade pendants.”

”What, Wuzong got its name from these two jade pendants?” Rao Shiwu is not surprised when things happen, but he is also shocked by the news.

She grew up in Wuzong, but never heard of it. The origin of Wuzong still has such a saying. What's more, how could the cultivator have such an important jade pendant for Wuzong?

There were countless questions in her heart, and she really wanted to ask the patriarch for clarification immediately.

”What are you two whispering here?” Suddenly, a voice rang.
