Chapter 402 Troubles within the family (Part )

"Miss Luo, Master Lin. After all, I am an outsider, so it is not convenient for me to interfere in the family affairs of the Northern Sage King."

In the guest room, Xunzhen poured tea and water for Luo Ningyu and Lin Fangda, and said with embarrassment: "It's not that I am unreasonable, but it is polite for the guest to follow the host's wishes. I hope you two won't force me."

"Miss Xunzhen, you and Xunyi have a close personal relationship. Do you want to watch him fall into trouble?" Lin Fang said, "Di Mo is dead, and Xunyi will soon be promoted to Black Handling Fan. Now is a critical moment, you must not stand by and watch him die."

"Master Lin may have misunderstood. I work with Liu Xunyi because of the arrangement of Master Luo. I have no personal relationship with him. Besides, if he has a clear conscience, I believe Mr. Huang Liu will not deliberately make things difficult for him." Xunzhen said seriously, "If he has ulterior motives, this is a good opportunity to clean up the Xianwang Mansion. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

"That being said, the purge is getting worse in the mansion. Given Mr. Huang Liu's personality, he would rather kill the wrong person than let the wrong person go. So far, many people in the mansion have died unjustly. I'm not afraid of Mr. Liu's keen insight, but I'm afraid he will swallow the whole thing and kill the innocent."

"Di Mo's betrayal has caused Young Master Luo's life and death to remain unknown. This incident has dealt a heavy blow to Palace Master Luo." Xunzhen shook his head and said, "The lesson learned from the past is unforgettable. As a result, the Xianwang Mansion is now on high alert and paranoid. In fact, I think there is nothing wrong with Master Huang Liu's actions..."

"Miss Xunzhen, don't you think the purge... is a bit too much?" Luo Ningyu suddenly asked.

Since she entered Xunzhen's room, she has been in a state of confusion and silence. It's not that Luo Ningyu doesn't trust Xunzhen, but she just doesn't want to ask her for help. After all, in a sense, Luo Ningyu has already regarded him as a potential rival in love.

"We must correct the wrongs by going too far, and not just scratching the surface." Xunzhen said, "This time, the reputation of the Northern Sage King has been greatly damaged, and his beloved son is in danger. If it happens again, it may lead to a disaster. Lord Luo is a hero in the martial arts world and knows the ways of the world. His decision to give power to Mr. Huang Liu was not an impulse, nor was it a momentary impulse. It was the result of careful consideration."

"Is killing an innocent person a deliberate act?"

"In wars between nations, a battalion of dead soldiers or even a city of civilians are often offered as bait. Their 'death' is not without value, but is to seek the 'life' of more people." Xunzhen said calmly, "The same is true for the purge. Some innocent disciples may be killed by mistake, but the deterrent effect of this matter will surely spread for years or even decades. For a long time to come, no more spies will sneak into the Xianwang Mansion. The move by the Northern Xianwang seems to be a last resort, but in fact it is a precautionary measure. It can be said to be very wise."

"Dad would never be so cruel as to disregard other people's lives for the sake of peace of mind!" Luo Ningyu was displeased and said angrily, "Miss Xunzhen can just not help, but why bother to find some ridiculous excuses to slander my dad?"

"Is it cruel?" Xunzhen asked in return, "Compared with the life-and-death struggles in the martial arts world, how cruel is a small purge?"

"you……"

"Forgive me for being rude." Xunzhen ignored Luo Ningyu's dissatisfaction and said, "I really can't do anything about Liu Xunyi's affairs, and I don't want to wade into this muddy water. Not only that, I also advise Miss Luo not to meddle in other people's affairs, so as not to bring trouble upon herself."

"Don't worry, I will definitely save Liu Xunyi! Even if I make a huge mistake, I won't abandon him like you did." Luo Ningyu was angered by Xunzhen and said coldly, "If Miss Xunzhen is worried about getting into trouble, she'd better stay in her room forever and don't go anywhere!"

"If Miss Luo sees Liu Xunyi, please tell him to take care of himself."

"you……"

"Forget it!" Lin Fangda stopped Luo Ningyu who was about to argue and said indignantly, "Since Miss Xunzhen has made up her mind, we will not bother her anymore. Goodbye!"

"This tea..."

"Leave it for Miss Xunzhen to drink!"

He said goodbye in a hurry and left.

Looking at the two people's receding backs, the frivolous look on Xunzhen's face gradually faded, replaced by a complex look with a deeper meaning.

……

Near noon, Huang Yulang personally led dozens of black-clothed disciples to surround Liu Xunyi's yard, causing panic among the disciples of Jingmen.

"Sixth Master, we are all family. Why mobilize so many troops?"

Liao Chuan and Liao Hai stood outside the door with smiles on their faces, as if to welcome Wong Yuk-lang, but also as if to stop him from breaking into Liu Xunyi's villa.

"Where is Liu Xunyi?"

Wong Yuk-lang, with an expressionless face, came closer, climbed the stairs without stopping, and headed straight into the courtyard.

"The Sect Master is resting in the room..."

While Liao Chuan and Liao Hai were answering, they stood in front of Wong Yuk-lang, intentionally or unintentionally. Although they didn't dare to directly obstruct him, they were somewhat restrained.

"You want to rebel?" Wong Yuk-lang raised his eyebrows, which frightened the Liao brothers. They dared not contradict Wong Yuk-lang, nor did they dare to let him go rashly. They could only step over the threshold with embarrassment, feeling torn and in a dilemma.

"Sixth Master, you are so honored to be here. I hope you will forgive me for not coming to greet you."

Suddenly, laughter came from the yard and Liu Xunyi stepped out.

"Liu Xunyi, Huang never comes to visit you for no reason. You should know why I'm here." "Yes." Liu Xunyi nodded. "For the past month, the Sixth Master has been busy clearing out spies for the Palace Master. He has been invincible and unstoppable. Wherever the Sixth Master appears, everyone is panicked and all wish for good luck."

Huang Yulang's eyelids twitched slightly, and he said coldly: "Yes, I am here to catch the spy."

"A few days ago, Sixth Master's men took five disciples away from Jingmen. Now their lives are unknown, and they are here to arrest people again today?" Liu Xunyi's tone seemed gentle, but in fact, he was secretly angry. "May I ask Sixth Master, are the five disciples before spies?"

"They couldn't stand the torture and died." Wong Yuk-lang answered nonchalantly, "Whether they were spies or not is not important anymore."

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Xunyi's expression suddenly changed, and an indescribable regret flashed across his eyes.

"I wonder how many people Sixth Master wants to take away from Jingmen today?" Liu Xunyi asked with a hint of meaning, "and do you have any real evidence?"

"Today I only want one person." Wong Yuk-lang remained calm and replied slowly, "As for whether we can find out the real evidence, it depends on whether this person is willing to confess voluntarily."

"One person?" Liu Xunyi frowned and asked, "Who has such a big face? Just one person dares to trouble the Sixth Master to come in person."

"you!"

"hiss!"

Wong Yuk-long spoke directly to the point, which immediately caused exclamations from all around.

"Me?" Liu Xunyi was stunned and asked in astonishment, "Sixth Master suspects that I am a spy?"

"Yes!"

After that, Huang Yulang took out a stack of notes from his pocket, handed them to Liu Xunyi, and said, "These are all your crimes. Even I didn't expect... that your popularity is so bad."

Liu Xunyi took the note doubtfully, read it one by one, and his eyes became more and more solemn.

"How?" Huang Yulang said in a deep voice, "Since you entered the Xianwang Mansion, you have been missing many times, acting ghostly, behaving strangely, and disobeying orders. All your old accounts are included in it, including the incident of Quanzhou sneaking into the Lu Mansion, the incident of the Jingfenghuayutu substitution, Yingchuan secretly letting the East Lake Gang bandits go, privately releasing Xu Ren, the murderer who killed Mr. Pan Ba, the death of Chen Yong in Chenzhou, the death of Chagan and his party in Chifengling, your open disobedience to the orders of the Mansion Master in Hexi, the death of Tang Cong in the Western Regions, and your deliberate concealment of Xiao Zhirou's relationship with Kunlun Sect in front of the Mansion Master... There are many mysteries that have not been solved yet, and we can break them up one by one until you are completely cleared of suspicion."

Seeing Liu Xunyi's eyes full of surprise and nodding without saying anything, Huang Yulang couldn't help but smile contemptuously and said, "Don't worry, I have plenty of time to accompany you to slowly recall these old things. Of course, I also have plenty of ways to help you recall one thing at a time."

Wong Yuk-lang's words are full of double entendres and are chilling.

"Have you read these notes...?"

"Don't count on the Palace Master to save you. He has given me full authority to handle this matter." Huang Yulang said, "Whether you live or die is up to me alone."

"These charges are completely groundless and nonsense." Liu Xunyi was furious and explained, "I have already explained most of the doubts to the Palace Master. As for the deaths of Chen Yong and Tang Cong... It was purely a frame-up. Someone wants to put me in an unjust position. I will never let it go."

"With so many charges popping up overnight, I won't let it go." Wong Yuk-lang said, "I think you won't make it difficult for me."

At this moment, a group of black-clothed disciples have reached out to touch the hilts of their swords to prevent Liu Xunyi from making any rash moves.

Seeing this, the Liao brothers' eyes changed and they subconsciously took a step forward.

Liu Xunyi asked calmly, "Master Huang Liu, do you believe these nonsense?"

"I don't believe it." Huang Yulang replied calmly, "Not only do I not believe these notes, I also don't believe you. Therefore, you must come back with me and explain everything clearly."

"I'm a spy?" Liu Xunyi laughed in anger, pretending to be incredulous, and cried out in injustice, "I have risked my life for the Lord of the House, through mountains of swords and seas of fire, and you actually suspect that I'm a spy?"

"So what?" Huang Yulang said disdainfully, "Di Mo has been loyal to the mansion master for more than ten years. He has dozens of scars of varying sizes on his body. He is still a traitor. The world is in decline and people's hearts are no longer the same. Not to mention you, even if these crimes are directed at Xie Xuan, I will not show mercy."

"you……"

"Liu Xunyi, you either come back with me obediently, or draw your sword and resist." Huang Yulang pressed on step by step, and every word was as sharp as a knife. "But I want to remind you that if anyone dares to refuse to cooperate with the orders of the Palace Master, I will kill him on the spot!"

After saying that, a chilling aura suddenly erupted from Huang Yulang's body, forcing the Liao brothers to retreat. At the same time, a strong aura as cold as ice and sharp as a sword instantly enveloped Liu Xunyi's head.
