Chapter 389 – Securing the Interior
Xue Mu realized that the people of the Questioning Sword Sect had a very cute thing about them, even the villains.
Perhaps it was the fact that their whole life was only about swords, and that they would rather bend than bend, and that they were sharp and stern, and that they tended to do things offensively but not defensively, and that they were straight forward and not retrogressive. For the rebuke, I don’t know if they don’t care to argue or they won’t, in any case, when the actual hammer was thrown in his face, Elder Zhao stopped arguing, and instead, he was very direct and stood up with his chest, and said with a straight face, “I didn’t rebel against the clan.”
With these six words, the implication was actually admitting to the accusation, just that the nature was not treasonous.
Xue Mu looked at him with interest and smiled, “I believe it. Because the matter of Elder Patriarch Lin’s realm fall was not known to the outside world, it means that you didn’t betray the most central information.”
Elder Zhao laughed coldly, “Even though I hate Lin Wuya, I know that once the information is lightly leaked, the trouble that the Questioning Sword Sect will encounter could be a hundred times greater. For the sake of the Sect, I naturally won’t leak the key secrets of the Sect.”
Lin Wu Ya sneered and didn’t answer, Mu Jian Li incredulously said, “But why is Senior Uncle Zhao doing this?”
“Zhao Kun is my cousin, it’s not like you guys don’t know.” Elder Zhao coldly said, “Lin Wu Ya indulged the demonic woman, and I also know that it was for the sake of Harmonization, so I tolerated it for now. But you, as the new Patriarch, also got involved with Xue Mu, forgive me for not being able to tolerate it!”
Mu Jianli was silent. She had a good heart, and at this time, she felt a little guilty instead.
Xue Mu asked, “So what you’re doing is just not wanting Jian Li to properly be the Patriarch?”
“Not bad!” Elder Zhao exclaimed, “What kind of Patriarch can a female doll with milky eyes and a passion for adultery be? I don’t know why even elders like Uncle Lin and others led the support that day, it’s simply ridiculous!”
Xue Mu laughed: “I told you, ask the sword clan regardless of the matter is not now starting, in fact, now should be the beginning of the efforts of the council is right, how instead of the recent particularly eventful, not internal someone to the new patriarch to mess up, relying on outsiders alone can not be so easy.”
That white-haired old man said angrily, “Zhao Hao! Even if you don’t agree with Jian Li as the main master, you can’t collude with outsiders and destroy the foundation of this clan by yourself! Simply asshole to the extreme!”
Zhao Hao shook his head, “It’s just a matter of each having their own plans. The first time Ling Baizhuang looked for me, he was trying to feel out Wu Ya’s injury, at that time, Wu Ya hadn’t returned, so I didn’t know about it, and even if I knew, I wouldn’t tell him. But this matter reminds me, regardless of the specific condition of Wu Ya’s injury, in any case, when he returns, he will definitely be injured, and his combat power will be greatly reduced. I’ll take this opportunity to conspire with the people to make trouble, and not let this kind of corpse be the Lord of the Questioning Sword again. As for Xue Mu’s comment that this is being used as a sword, I know, but I’m still going to do it.”
Lin Wuya still smiled coldly.
The white-haired old man said, “So you’re bent on serving the clan instead? Don’t tell me that you don’t know the slightest thing about what the Governor’s Office and the Divine Gun Sect have done!”
“I didn’t know at first.” Zhao Hao sighed, “When it was known, inwardly, I did feel that by taking advantage of this chaos, I could once again impeach Mu Jianli for not being worthy of being the main one, so I might as well let it go for a while.”
Xue Mu added, “I’m afraid it’s more than just letting go. You think it would be better to cooperate and act, and in the future, if you gain power, since you know exactly where the root cause is, you will be able to accurately find where to break the situation and set things right, and become a meritorious member of the clan’s revitalization.”
Zhao Hao glanced at Xue Mu and didn’t argue.
Because Xue Mu had hit the truth. Although Zhao Hao hated Xue Mu, deep down inside, he really had some admiration for his eyes that could break through people’s hearts.
The white-haired old man shook his head frequently, ”So you went deeper and deeper, and simply blocked back even the report of being robbed underneath? Knowing full well that the Divine Gun Sect Discussion Prospects don’t have good intentions, you also think you can utilize them?”
Zhao Hao was silent.
“You’re confused!” The white-haired old man finally became furious: “Don’t you know how many schemes you have? You dare to play the trick of utilizing each other with the imperial governors and other colluding people? Today, Ye Tingsheng made a scene in public, do you have a fart to play? It’s good that Jian Li responded well, if you really let this clan lose its reputation in front of the world, you won’t be responsible enough even if you have ten dog heads!”
“I ……” Zhao Hao mumbled for half a day and said disheveledly, “I really didn’t think that he would be on that kind of occasion ……”
“Then where did you get the confidence to continue playing tricks with the Divine Gun Sect!” The white-haired old man was so angry that his beard buckled, “Ling Baizhuang has Ye Tingsheng planning behind him, you have a fart!”
“Alright. More cursing won’t help.” Mu Jianli suddenly spoke, “Zhao Hao colluded with outsiders and victimized the sect, the evidence is solid and he has confessed. Elder Gu, by the laws of this clan, what should Zhao Hao be guilty of?”
Law Enforcement Hall Elder Gu pursed his lips, if according to Zhao Hao’s statement, the crime is not to death, but Mu Jianli still gave him the characterization of “colluding with outsiders”, this is to make him die, this is the new Patriarch intends to set up an authority.
And this can not be refuted, no matter how the subjective thought, the fact of collusion with outsiders does exist. The consequences are also very bad, causing the sect to be shaken, as long as the heart to the sect who is not angry? The willingness to give him a reduction in his offense is not much.
He pondered for a moment, but still said, “The crime is the same as rebelling against the clan, and shall receive the punishment of ten thousand swords through the heart.”
Zhao Hao’s complexion was gray, but he still stiffly held himself up and stood proudly, “Mister Zhao’s death is not enough, but it’s a pity that the powerful sect of righteousness that has been cutting down demons and eliminating devils for generations is going to turn into the backyard of the Star Moon Sect!”
Xue Mu was dumbfounded, “You …… have to stir things up even when you’re dying, what exactly do you think I’m greedy for your clan ah? A treasury that can’t even give out clothes? Or a swordsman who will only be used as a sword? The Questioning Sword Sect’s greatest treasure is by my side, and I, Xue Mu, have already obtained it, and the other stuff that is precious in your hearts is like gravel in mine.”
These words moved quite a few elders, and Mu Jianli even bit her lower lip tightly, unable to hold down her hand as she reached out and clasped the palm of his hand.
The Questioning Sword Sect wasn’t the Emotionless Dao, it was to the point of sentimentality and forgetfulness, and this kind of statement from Xue Mu was really to their taste. Especially since everyone knew that Xue Mu really wasn’t being hypocritical with this statement.
You have to say that he covets what the Questioning Sword Sect has, but when he and Mu Jianli fell in love, it was when Lin Wuya was in his prime, and according to reason, Mu Jianli didn’t have a say for several decades, so he could covet anything through her. Now Mu Jian Li has trouble, he is clearly the enemy of the clan, did not take advantage of the opportunity to work against, but instead far away Baba rushed to help, suffered all kinds of cynicism from the inside to the outside of a variety of challenges all kinds of not to see, he is still smiling, send the sword to send things to help the idea of cracking the blame.
What is the figure?
Figure tripod? The Tripod Elder will not listen to the order, you will Mu Jianli lost his mind and can not get away from the tripod ah. It would be better to take advantage of the chaos in the Sword Sect to plan the six alliance war effectively.
So can only figure Mu Jian Li live comfortably, really for her as a person.
Law Enforcement Hall Gu Elder let out a long sigh, and personally made a move to abolish Zhao Hao’s meridians, and raised to the dungeon to be held in preparation for the execution on a certain day.
At this time, the atmosphere in the room changed very significantly, people turned a blind eye to Mu Jian Li’s tight grip on Xue Mu’s hand, instead, they all solemnly said to Xue Mu: “We were biased earlier, and we have offended General Manager Xue, I hope that General Manager Xue won’t be bothered with me and other martial artists.”
Xue Mu pretended to back off, “Actually, knowing the situation behind the scenes, you guys have a way to sort it out yourselves, right? If you have misgivings about me, I’ll stay out of it.”
“Where where!” Even for those who really still had misgivings, or those who really felt that relying on themselves would be enough, it was really not good to say such words at this juncture, it would really not be a good person. They could only say, “Chief Executive Xue’s ability to maneuver the world is known to all, I hope to disregard previous suspicions and give more guidance.”
Xue Mu sighed, “I can only say one thing first, Zhao Hao can’t be killed directly, if you want to reverse your reputation, most of it will have to fall on him.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up at once, secretly saying that this demon really turned his mind fast, everyone was still immersed in Zhao Hao’s disposition, Xue Mu had already thought of the next step of using Zhao Hao to do things, and this kind of scapegoating tactic, the righteous way is mostly not good to mention, that is to say, Xue Mu mentioned it as a matter of course.
So it seems, is really not his help simply can not cope with, originally think that they can also be the people are immediately dismissed the idea, bawling counting on him to mention a few more sentences.
Xue Mu, however, yawned at this time: “Today there are too many things, Xue Mou is also tired, tomorrow we will discuss it.”
The response was an enthusiastic, “Good to say, good to say, Chief Executive Xue take a good rest and come back tomorrow morning to intrude.”
Xue Mu, however, did not move, but just reached out and wrapped his hand around Mu Jian Li’s waist, Mu Jian Li glared at him a bit angrily, but let him wrap his arms around him without a word.
The Elders looked a little bit uncomfortable, but since people don’t object to their relationship anymore, this doesn’t seem to be much to talk about. That Internal Affairs Hall Elder had said several words in favor of Ling Wushuang, at this moment, he was afraid of being liquidated, he even smiled shyly and said, “Look at us, we have no eyes, Chief Xue and the Patriarch have met again after a long time, why are we still here to disturb? Go first go first.”
Outside the window, Yue Xiaochan had been glaring at the door with the guards. Hearing the words inside, she suddenly couldn’t help but burst out laughing, the words that Xue Mu had said before he came incomparably clear in her mind.
–Make them go from a stinky face telling me to stay away from their Patriarch to a shy face begging me to favor their Patriarch, how’s this kind of bad guy doing?
Yue Xiaochan felt that this trip out with Xue Mu was simply too much fun, and just watching the drama was not a waste of the trip.
