Chapter 1110 Responsibility
Zhou Ran, Qianxun, and Kuangsha returned to Linghai City with Lingwu and other members of the Linghai Sect.
Qianxun is Lingwu's niece, Linghai City is equivalent to her home, so Lingwu naturally has to treat her well.
Delicious food and centuries-old wine are essential. In addition, there are songs and dances to add to the fun.
There were singing and dancing inside Linghai Gate to welcome Zhou Ran and other guests.
At the banquet, Lingwu couldn't help but toast Zhou Ran and praised Zhou Ran mercilessly, as if Zhou Ran was already invincible.
Zhou Ran was not polite, and he never shied away from the wine he put to his mouth.
After drinking for three rounds, Lingwu said gratefully: "Zhou Ran, thanks to your help, I was able to rescue Qianxun. I will definitely repay your kindness!"
Qianxun said hurriedly: "Uncle, grandpa wanted to see Zhou Ran, so he asked me to bring him all the way. The world of immortality is not peaceful, and grandpa believes that Zhou Ran can change the status quo of the world of immortality."
"Change the status quo? That would be great!"
Lingwu was overjoyed and toasted Zhou Ran again.
Zhou Ran gave a bitter smile and said: "I just came to report the news and didn't do anything. The reason why Yun Zong released him was all because of Mrs. Qu, the elder of the temple. In comparison, my contribution is too small." ”
"How is that possible? If you hadn't seen through someone pretending to be a disciple of the Yun Sect, we would have been trapped outside the Yun Sect city."
Lingwu couldn't help but put a high hat on Zhou Ran.
Qianxun and Kuangsha also heard about the ambush that happened outside Yunzong City, but they found it incredible.
"How can someone imitate the appearance and skills of Yun Sect disciples? The appearance can be imitated, but the skills are abilities that grow on the body, so how can they be copied?"
"Yes! I think they should be disciples of the Yun Sect. Those puppets you see are just a cover-up."
Qianxun and Kuangsha expressed doubts, which was reasonable.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard for Lingwu to believe it, but seeing is believing. Lingwu even confirmed it on the spot, which shows that this matter is absolutely true and not false at all.
"It's true, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it! Instead of thinking about how Yun Zong can play tricks, it's better to think about who can do such a thing."
Lingwu's words silenced everyone.
No matter how you look at it, it is a strange and strange thing.
It is a pity that this is beyond everyone's common sense, making it impossible for everyone to imagine how the enemy did it.
Without a clue, there is naturally no way to investigate.
Everyone was confused when a guest suddenly came to the banquet.
It was none other than Mrs. Qu.
Mrs. Qu came casually without anyone telling her, so when Mrs. Qu came to the banquet, everyone was shocked.
"Mrs. Qu, you are here to welcome me, but you are welcome from afar!"
Lingwu quickly stood up and greeted the temple elder.
"Lingwu, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Mrs. Qu said directly that she came this time to talk to Lingwu.
"Okay, please follow me to the inner hall!"
Naturally, Lingwu would not refuse and immediately invited Mrs. Qu to the inner hall.
The inner hall is decorated with secrets and is a good place to talk. It has a soundproof barrier. People inside cannot hear what people outside are saying.
Without waiting for Mrs. Qu to speak, Lingwu hurriedly said: "Mrs. Qu, we went to Yun Zong City to find Yun Zong's theory, but we encountered an ambush on the way. They seemed to be Yun Zong disciples, but in the end, it was not them at all, just a few Just a doll!”
Lingwu didn't hold anything back and told Mrs. Qu what happened in the woods outside Yunzong City.
Although she doesn't know clearly, Mrs. Qu is an elder of the temple. She is well-informed, so she might know something.
Lingwu wanted Mrs. Qu to go into details, but Mrs. Qu didn't give him any answers.
"This matter is strange, Lingwu. Even I can't figure it out for the time being. I will report it to the temple and ask the people in the temple to help investigate."
Mrs. Qu had already talked about this, so naturally Lingwu couldn't continue to dig deeper.
The temple's spies are spread all over the Immortal Realm, and they might be able to investigate something.
Seeing that Lingwu stopped talking, Mrs. Qu said again: "Lingwu, I'm here this time for an important matter, which is about those missing criminals!"
Lingwu was stunned and said: "Mrs. Qu, I have already told the Holy Temple. Didn't the Holy Temple say that they will not pursue the case?"
Mrs. Qu sighed and said: "The temple governs the world of immortality with benevolence and righteousness, and is naturally tolerant of its forces. Don't say that the loss of sinners has nothing to do with you. Even if you let those sinners go, no one will blame you! But the spirit Wu, as the leader of Linghai Sect and the city lord of Linghai City, do you need to shoulder some responsibilities? "
"responsibility?"
Mrs. Qu's words hit the most vulnerable point in Lingwu's heart.
He can be regarded as a prince in the Immortal Realm, and everything he owns is given by the temple.
After getting everything, you naturally have to fulfill the corresponding responsibilities. This is your own mission, and no one can shake it.
Lingwu was silent.
Mrs. Qu stood up and patted Lingwu on the shoulder.
"Lingwu, you are a smart person, you know what I mean! For the temple, maintaining the balance of the immortal world is of vital importance! Linghaimen, as a subsidiary of the temple, should also know this! In order to maintain the balance of this world, the sacrifice of those sinners is needed, and their sacrifice is not in vain, but valuable! However, if someone is moved by compassion and releases those sinners, or even denies everything the judge has done in the name of morality, then at that time, the entire immortal world will be destroyed! What is more important is not until the lives of all living beings are destroyed. "
"I know."
Lingwu nodded heavily, but his voice was so weak that it could not be heard.
After getting Lingwu's definite answer, Mrs. Qu finally smiled with satisfaction.
"Lingwu, it is everyone's dream to be untainted by the mud. Unfortunately, how many people can really do it? If you don't have strong power, you can't protect the people around you. I am the same as you. Under the sanctimonious appearance, I am full of corrupt hearts. If you want to go to hell, you and I can't escape! Lingwu, take care of yourself!"
After leaving a word, Mrs. Qu left the inner hall.
After Mrs. Qu left, Lingwu froze. In his mind, the words that Mrs. Qu said to him kept appearing.
As Mrs. Qu said, he has been dirty for a long time.
The dirty hands even made him have the urge to chop them off.
It's a pity that he couldn't get out of it. What was coming would always come. Even if he didn't want to, he couldn't stop it from happening.
