Zhong Liang was surprised by this news, it must be known that the holy beast of the ice phoenix has not woken up since arriving at the Celestial Sword Sect 15 years ago. Zhong Liang could only communicate with this holy beast through his spiritual contract, and yet they rarely communicated, for the ice phoenix will already warn him that he had to rest to recover from his injuries.
"The master asked me to come back?" Zhong Liang asked Elder Han deliberately ignoring the intimate form the other man called him.
"No, but you should use your communication item to talk to your master to reassure him and also try to connect with his holy beast," Elder Han said calmly.
"In addition, the spies of the other sects were also captured, and in addition to those killed, there are at least seven to 10 people. Little Song you have to go to the interrogation, you know how Great Master Zhang is with these things, "continued Elder Han looking at Miss Song.
Zemin Yan felt her heart clench and looked very pitiful at Miss Song, of course, she felt her heart melt.
"Old man, me and Grandmaster Zhang are staying on the island. I will order the logistics people to set up a place for interrogation. I want to see this peculiar rookie tournament too. "Miss Song hurried to say. Zemin Yan was relieved, after all, he just found his older sister, he didn't want to split up anytime soon.
"Do what you want, but you should report to the sect on this subject, for now, I will take little Yan and young Yuga to where everyone else is staying, the tournament will start tomorrow morning and it will last three days. I myself will chair the meeting to avoid any small scheme that might harm the young disciples, "said Elder Han with a wry smile as he remembered that it was one of his personal disciples who for some reason, which Elder Han had no idea, had used these special stones the sect leader had given to identify talents.
Elder Han understood a lot about the schemes, which he didn't understand was why Hong Yu did it, who was he targeting? Zemin Yan? Other people? After all, it can be seen that there were various talents in these new disciples, did Hong Yu want to harm any of these young people? However, what is the reason?
Han Yie could understand the schemes, but make schemes against novices who had nothing in the sect… That made no sense. Of course, Han Yie knew that Hong Yu could not have the secret information about Zemin Yan's past.
Of course, when Elder Han comes to know about Hong Yu's motives, well, he would not only be shocked to know about Hong Yu's schemes, but he would also be furious and horrified!
Unfortunately, the people of the sect will only discover this years later!
Hong Yu's punishment?
Honestly, thanks to Zhong Liang's timely warning it was possible to avert a terrible disaster, but Elder Han couldn't blame it all on Hong Yu, isn't it as if his disciple knew there were crazy spies and spies with a high degree of cultivation? Even if there is an investigation into the matter, the conclusion would just be an unfortunate coincidence.
Of course, Elder Han will have to punish Hong Yu for his carelessness, but he could not persecute this disciple, it should also be noted that he felt indebted to Hong Yu because of past issues that cannot be described.
"After you talk to your master, you can go back to where the new disciples are, I will let you be responsible for the safety of little Yan if there are more hidden spies, but in return, you must protect the whole group of little Yan until we all get to our sect. Are you willing? "Asked Elder Han, stifling his helpless sigh at the thought of the problems he had to solve once the sect came.
"Yes, that disciple is willing!" Zhong Liang spoke without even blinking. He was even humble with Elder Han, while the Elder snorted with that good boy attitude as if he had not seen the stubborn and troubled side of this disciple has little behind!
"Little Song, you should meet with Grandmaster Zhang now. I will take the two children with me, so it will be less flashy, "said Elder Han already approaching the two children.
"Little brother, this big sister is coming back soon, so don't be too worried!" Said Miss Song, crouching to be at the same height as Zemin Yan, looking into his deer eyes.
"Who is worried about you! I don't have an older sister who doesn't show her face or tell me her name! "Said Zemin Yan being a tsundere, refusing to look at Miss Song's face.
Miss Song can only laugh with a little guilt, but her heart was warm to her tsundere little brother.
"My name is Song Ling, Dawn Ling," said Song Ling with a soft, magical tone as the illusion that covered her face fell apart, revealing her feminine face.
"Wow, this big sister is your dear brother Yan!" Said Yi Yuga surprised to see Song Ling's face. Sure, the features of her face were more charming than Zemin Yan's, but her honey-brown eyes, long, thin nose, brown hair, and short eyebrows, reddish lips and smallmouth… It was a set that could not be considered a true beauty, but it also does not fit the level of being an ugly face.
Like Zemin Yan, Song Ling's beauty was mild, but it was also a beauty that was considered common, that she could easily blend into the crowd. Of course, anyone looking at those light brown eyes for a while will feel the warmth of those eyes and cannot divert their attention, but in general, both brothers had a common face that could easily be forgotten.
"So, how about?" Song Ling asked with a soft smile, which made his face a little more delicate. Zemin Yan with his free hand touched his older sister's face, it was impossible to deny their kinship only because of that similar face. His heart felt strangely hot as he saw the face that was almost his copy.
"Very good!" Said Zemin Yan in a low voice, but with red ears.
"So the big sister is pretty?" Said Song Ling teasing her little brother. However, Zemin Yan rushes over to Elder Han and shows his tongue like a playful child of his age.
Yi Yuga followed right behind his best friend, he held the little black tiger in his arms and the rainbow koi fish followed the two children. Soon the three people and the three animals disappeared through the teleportation scroll.
"Control your vinegar level, he's my blood-bound little brother, there's no way you can get over it," said Song Ling, staring at Zhong Liang who had an angry look on his handsome face.
Because Song Ling's and Zemin Yan's faces were similar, Zhong Liang really couldn't say the cold words he meant, he could only bear the bitterness in his heart. Even though it was Zhong Liang who spent more time with Zemin Yan when this was a baby, unfortunately, Zemin Yan does not have the memories before his parents' accidents.
Zhong Liang could only roll his eyes, but he followed Song Ling to her open portal, as she would reunite with the other members of the inner sect and he needed a secure location to send the message to his master.
