Chapter 1554 Freeloading
"Wang Zilai...!"
Zuo Zicong whispered Wang Zilai's name, his face full of disbelief.
"As the leader of Tianding Sect, why did Wang Zilai want to capture Wu Daoyou? This is not reasonable at all!"
Duan Qing also felt that Wang Zilai had no motive to attack Wu Ji, but the information he had at present did not allow him to make other inferences.
"All this is just speculation!"
"What we need to confirm now is where this person left for Tianji Star at that time."
Zuo Zicong nodded solemnly, said nothing more, and immediately ordered people to investigate the matter secretly.
A few days later, relying on Zuo Shenzong's powerful intelligence capabilities, the two finally got the answer they wanted.
The result was both within their expectations and beyond their expectations.
When Wang Zilai got the news and set off for Tianji Star that day, he was indeed on Yuwang Star!
Duan Qing and Zuo Zicong, who received this news, were silent for a long time.
What this meant, the two knew it very well.
If we continue to investigate according to this clue, whether Wang Zilai has captured Wu Ji or not, it will undoubtedly greatly affect the relationship between the two sects. If we are not careful, the two sects may even fall into hostility.
As super sects of the Immortal Spirit Alliance, this matter is too sensitive. Even with Zuo Zicong's identity as the Taoist of Zuo Shenzong, he dare not make this decision for Zuo Shenzong!
Zuo Zicong looked at Duan Qing with some embarrassment: "Brother Qing... or let's stop here. Let's report the information we have found so far to the Soul Search Sect and let the people of the Soul Search Sect continue to investigate!"
Duan Qing nodded helplessly: "Well, this is the only way!"
The matter involves a behemoth like Tianding Sect, especially involving Wang Zilai, the leader of Tianding Sect. At this level, he can no longer intervene.
Even if he finds out that Wu Ji was really captured by Wang Zilai, can he still go to Wang Zilai in person to ask for him!
In view of the great importance of this matter, Duan Qing and Zuo Zicong had to go to the Soul Search Sect in person to inform the Soul Search Sect's great elder Shen Ge about it.
Shen Ge was furious when he heard the news, but considering that the authenticity of the news had yet to be confirmed, he did not help Meng Zhuang and Xing Wuji repair their souls, but only stated that he would negotiate with Tianding Sect. If Wu Ji was successfully taken back, he would then fulfill his promise.
Helplessly, Duan Qing and Zuo Zicong had to return to Zuo Shen Sect first and wait for news from the Soul Search Sect.
…
Unconsciously, three years passed like a flash.
During these three years, Duan Qing had been waiting for news from the Soul Search Sect, but there was no news.
That day, Duan Qing had just finished a day of practice when he heard a knock on the door.
Pushing open the door, he saw Su Yutong standing at the door.
"Is there anything, fellow Daoist Su?"
Su Yutong poked her head and glanced at Duan Qing's empty and tidy room: "Why don't you invite me, your senior sister, to sit in?"
"If you have anything to say, fellow Daoist Su, just tell me directly." Duan Qing was always concerned about the safety of Meng Zhuang and Xing Wuji, and he was too lazy to say more to Su Yutong.
Su Yutong frowned slightly: "In this case, I will speak directly."
"I heard that Junior Brother Duan still has a vacant spot in the Tianding Secret Realm. Can this spot be given to me, Senior Sister?"
"No!" Duan Qing refused directly, and then wanted to close the door.
Seeing this, Su Yutong quickly stretched out her hand to support the door, staring at Duan Qing with some resentment: "It's not for nothing, Junior Brother Duan, if you have any request, just say it, just think of it as Senior Sister buying it from you."
"No sale!" Duan Qing refused again, and at the same time, he exerted force on his hands, trying to force the door to close.
Seeing that Duan Qing was unmoved, Su Yutong raised her eyebrows and simply let go of her hands that were supporting the door.
Bang!
The door slammed shut.
"If Junior Brother Duan really doesn't want to sell it, I can't guarantee that I won't say anything in front of outsiders."
Creaky
The door reopened, Duan Qing's eyes were as cold as water: "What do you want?"
Su Yutong smiled triumphantly: "Nothing, I just want to ask Junior Brother Duan for a quota."
Duan Qing was silent for a moment, and then spoke again: "What are you going to use to buy the quota in Duan's hand?"
Su Yutong chuckled twice, then pointed to her slightly red lips.
"I originally wanted to offer a price that would make Junior Brother excited, but now it seems that what Junior Brother cares most about is whether I can control my mouth."
"In that case, it's as you wish."
"As long as Junior Brother Duan gives you the quota of the Tianding Secret Realm, Senior Sister swears that she will never reveal your secret to others in this life, how about it?"
Duan Qing sneered in his heart.
It sounds high-sounding, but in fact, it's just a free ride!
However...if he could really use a quota for the Tianding Secret Realm to completely shut up Su Yutong, this deal would be a good deal.
After all...Su Yutong and he are now fellow disciples, so he wouldn't kill her to silence her!
After thinking about it, Duan Qing nodded and agreed to Su Yutong's proposal.
"Okay!"
Hearing Duan Qing's agreement, Su Yutong's face immediately burst into smiles, and then she swore in front of Duan Qing, and finally left triumphantly.
Bang!
Duan Qing closed the door and rubbed his temples.
He couldn't understand Su Yutong anymore!
She hadn't made trouble for three years after returning to the sect, but now she threatened him!
If Xiao Luzi knew this news, he would probably be furious.
He originally planned to keep the third quota for Duan Lu, and then he, Zuo Zicong, and Xiao Luzi would enter the Tianding Secret Realm together.
Now it seems that this plan is going to fail.
Whatever!
Anyway, he didn't want to go to Tianding Secret Realm with Zuo Zicong at the moment, so he might as well give this quota to Xiao Luzi, and continue to wait for news from the Soul Search Sect in Zuo Shen Sect.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing planned to go to the communication room in Zuo Shen Sect to inform Duan Lu, who was far away on the Demon Saint Star, of the news.
Unfortunately, before Duan Qing could leave, Zuo Zicong rushed to Duan Qing's door again, and blocked Duan Qing directly.
Seeing Zuo Zicong's solemn face, Duan Qing immediately guessed Zuo Zicong's intention, and immediately set up a soundproof formation in the room very carefully.
"But is there any news from the Soul Search Sect?"
"Yes!" Zuo Zicong nodded helplessly.
"The Soul Search Sect has not had direct contact with the Tianding Sect in recent years, but has been secretly investigating and collecting evidence of the Tianding Sect's capture of Wu Ji."
Duan Qing nodded.
There is nothing wrong with the Soul Search Sect's approach.
Without solid evidence, if you rashly go to Tianding Sect to ask for someone, you might anger Tianding Sect, or even kill them to silence them, and you might even get bitten back in the end.
Once someone dies, even if the Soul Search Sect is angry, they can't do anything to Tianding Sect without evidence.
If there is solid evidence, it will be different. The facts are in front of you, and Tianding Sect must hand over the person, otherwise it will give the Soul Search Sect an opportunity to make use of the issue.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing hurriedly asked: "Has the Soul Search Sect found solid evidence?"
