Chapter 43
"Disciple Cui You pays homage to the sect master!" Cui You saluted hurriedly and fearfully.
Disciples of the Five Gods Sect may not have seen the appearance of the sect leader with their own eyes, but they have seen the portrait.
Therefore, even if Cui You has never met Xie Changyang in the Sky Fire Soul Locking Formation, he will be able to recognize him once he meets him in person.
"Have you been delivering food during this period?" Xie Changyang asked.
"Disciple just came here to deliver food, almost two months ago." Cui You replied.
"Didn't you notice any changes in the formation here?" Xie Changyang asked again.
Hearing Xie Changyang's question, Cui You looked confused and said: "Sect Master, this disciple always follows the rules and leaves after putting down the food. He dare not stay here longer. I don't know if the formation has changed."
"Really?" Xie Changyang stared at Cui You and said in a cold voice.
Cui You's body couldn't help trembling, and he felt an extremely terrifying momentum that made it difficult for him to breathe.
At this moment, Feng Rui moved, stood in front of Cui You and smiled: "Senior Brother Sect Master, he is just a junior disciple, not even a formal disciple, how can he see the changes in the formation?"
Xie Changyang regained his momentum, knowing that he had lost his composure just now.
Unexpectedly, it was inappropriate to forcefully question a candidate disciple.
Xie Changyang knew that Du Feihen's incident still had a considerable impact on him.
"You go down." Feng Rui turned around and smiled kindly at Cui You who looked frightened behind him, "Don't be nervous or think too much."
Cui You was really startled just now. He was afraid that the sect master would see something out of him, otherwise he wouldn't ask himself this question.
Seeing Cui You almost tripping over a raised rock under his feet as he left, a senior here laughed and said: "This little guy was so scared. Brother Sect Leader, did you discover something?"
Xie Changyang's momentum just now was nothing to them, but Cui You was just a candidate disciple, and that momentum was absolutely terrifying to him.
Cui You still looks a little shocked now, which they can completely understand.
In fact, Cui You's real situation is not as bad as they thought.
After all, he still has Uncle Huang secretly taking care of him, so his will is relatively firm.
However, the frightened look just now was in accordance with Uncle Huang's wishes, asking him to pretend as much as possible.
It would be weird for him, a candidate disciple, to be too calm under Xie Changyang's momentum.
Xie Changyang ignored Cui You who left, glanced at everyone and said, "You all come in."
After saying that, these people followed Xie Changyang into the Sky Fire Soul Locking Formation.
"The invitations have been sent out, and many Jianghu sects are probably on their way. Now that the Evil Emperor is dead, how can we still judge him?" an old man asked.
After Xie Changyang left last time, he sent invitations to those Jianghu sects, inviting them to come and judge the Evil Emperor together.
Now that the Evil Emperor has only a mutilated skeleton left, the trial can no longer proceed.
"In short, the Evil Emperor's death must be announced to the world."
"Yes, this can also warn other evil spirits of their crooked ways."
…
Feng Rui's face remained normal, but his heart was not at peace.
He didn't expect his senior brother to die like this. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have. With his skill, it was impossible that he could not withstand the invasion of the sky fire.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Xie Changyang secretly.
"We can't draw a conclusion yet about the Evil Emperor's death," Xie Changyang said.
"Hey, Senior Brother Sect Leader, why is this?"
Others also had puzzled looks on their faces.
Xie Changyang did not answer their words immediately, but walked to the soul chain and kicked it with his foot.
"What?" The old guys here all widened their eyes.
Many old guys rushed over, grabbed the lock of the soul chain in their hands, and kept looking through it.
"The lock was actually broken?"
"How is it possible? How can it be opened without a key?"
"Senior Brother Sect Leader, that key?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xie Changyang turned his palm, and four black and faintly red keys appeared in his palm.
"I always carry the key with me." Xie Changyang said.
"Then how did it break open?"
Everyone knows very well that it is impossible for Xie Changyang to open the lock for the Evil Emperor.
Xie Changyang looked at Feng Rui and said, "Junior brother Feng, what do you think?"
"Junior brother can't figure out how to break this lock. Without the key, no one can do it," Feng Rui said.
After hearing Xie Changyang's question, many people had an idea in their minds, whether it was Feng Rui's fault.
After all, Du Feihen is from Mu Shen Peak and Feng Rui's senior brother. Their master is the same person, so their relationship is extraordinary.
But what Feng Rui said is right. The key is still in Xie Changyang's hand, so these four locks may not be able to be opened.
So even if Feng Rui has the heart, he doesn't have the power.
It can’t be said that Xie Changyang opened the lock himself, right?
Considering the relationship between Xie Changyang and Du Feihen, it is obviously impossible.
But they secretly had another idea in mind.
Could it be that Xie Changyang secretly killed Du Feihen and then opened the lock, making everyone think that Du Feihen had escaped?
This is not impossible.
I remember back then, in front of all the seniors, Xie Changyang swore that he would not kill the Evil Emperor, but would only imprison him.
It would obviously not be appropriate if everyone knew that he killed the Evil Emperor.
If you think about it this way, the possibility is very high.
Didn't he just want to say this when he asked himself and others to come over and watch this scene this time?
Let everyone think that this corpse is not Du Feihen.
Then there is no question of him killing Du Feihen.
"Brother Sect Master, it seems that the Evil Emperor may have escaped. The power of the Sky Fire Formation here has been weakened a lot. It is not locked by the Soul Locking Chain. It is not impossible for him to break through the formation," one person said.
Everyone else also nodded.
Even if Xie Changyang really kills Du Feihen, it's a done deal, and everyone can only pretend not to know now.
Feng Rui felt a little more hopeful, hoping that his senior brother had really escaped.
Although it is very likely that Xie Changyang killed Du Feihen, the lock must have been destroyed by the 'Ten Thousand Years Ice Soul'. In this way, it is possible for Du Feihen to escape.
"Pay attention to the movements in the Jianghu, especially the possible whereabouts of Du Feihen. Once discovered, report it immediately." Xie Changyang said.
To be honest, Xie Changyang was a little surprised when the four locks were broken.
But if he said that Du Feihen escaped, he still wouldn't believe it.
The last time he saw Du Feihen, preventing him from escaping was a waste of his martial arts. Even if the lock was broken, he would not be able to escape from here.
Unless Feng Rui helps take him out.
Xie Changyang still understood in his heart that Feng Rui might be dissatisfied with him and would try to find ways to help Du Feihen, but it was impossible for him to rescue Du Feihen.
Give Du Feihen some care, and even if everyone knows about it, everyone will just turn a blind eye and ignore it.
But if Du Feihen is rescued, his temperament will be different. He can be treated as a traitor, but Feng Rui will not do so.
Besides, Du Feihen is already a useless person, so what's the use of rescuing him?
So whether Du Feihen escaped or not, Xie Changyang didn't care much.
If he escaped, he would probably have no choice but to live in some remote place.
Moreover, Du Feihen will not live for a few more years. His skills will be ruined, his body and mind will be severely damaged, and he will soon die of old age.
