Chapter 290 Missing

Missing?

What does missing mean?

"That's what it means literally." Su Daoyu said with certainty.

Wu Chong was stunned for a moment. His impression of the old Heavenly Master was still the same as the last time. When he met Lao Tianshi, the impression he had on him was just four words - unfathomable. Even now, he still doesn't dare to say that he is confident about facing the Heavenly Master. Such a top-notch powerful man, how can he disappear without saying a word?

"The old man disappeared before we came to the capital. I have learned from the junior brother stationed in the capital that the old man last appeared ten days ago."

Ten days!

If the old Celestial Master disappeared ten days ago, then who wrote the letter sent to Prince Jinghai’s Mansion? The aura of the old Celestial Master clearly cannot be faked.

"I have investigated secretly in the past three days and found that not only the old man, but also the Imperial Master Wang Qian and the abbot of Daming Temple are all missing."

This is where something goes wrong.

The heads of the three top sects were nowhere to be seen, but the imperial court became more active during this period.

Emperor Qi!

Are you really about to die?

An idea flashed in Wu Chong's mind. This thought suddenly made me feel bad. If Emperor Qi is fine, he, the most wanted criminal, will be in danger!

"What was the reaction of the other two families?"

"I sent people over to inquire. The Daming Temple is very chaotic now. The conflict between the Chanyuan and the Mingyuan has become fierce. I heard that many people have died. The White Crane Academy is still the same as usual. Maybe there are other deeper changes. I I didn’t find out. According to the information I have learned so far, among the three masters, the last one to go missing was Emperor Master Wang Qian, eight days ago.”

Su Daoyu is worthy of being a senior sister.

The old Heavenly Master said a long time ago that if one day he is gone, Su Daoyu will be his successor. Wu Chong didn't realize it before, but when he was really in danger, Su Daoyu seemed to be a different person. I don’t know how much more reliable he is than the salted fish old Ding next to him.

"Where is it inside the palace?"

Wu Chong asked the core of the problem.

This is the center of this whirlpool. Whether it is Emperor Qi or the ancient gods who may appear, they should be in that place.

"have no idea."

Su Daoyu shook his head.

The first news she inquired about was from within the palace, but strangely, all the eyeliners she had left in the past were broken during this period. The people inside seemed to have disappeared from the world. If it weren't for the fact that officials came in and out every day, Su Daoyu would have thought that there was no one alive in the palace.

"I'm going to go in and investigate in person. There is definitely something wrong with Emperor Qi."

Su Daoyu expressed her thoughts. This was the purpose of waiting for Wu Chong to come over.

The current situation in Shangjing City is complicated and requires a strong person to take charge. Wu Chong just meets this condition.

"Too risky."

Wu Chong shook his head.

Now all the problems are concentrated in the palace. If the speculation is true, Su Daoyu went in to deliver food. Even Lao Tianshi and the other old guys can't stand it. If they go in alone, they are looking for death.

"It's best to wait for a while. If there is still no news from the Heavenly Master by then, I will go with you."

Wu Chong looked at his experience bar.

After such a long period of accumulation, I have saved a lot.

If we can get another big upgrade before the problem breaks out, it will be stable. If we advance to Nascent Soul, we can definitely suppress the world and overwhelm all enemies. This made him involuntarily think of the method he used when he entered the golden elixir stage. In order to upgrade, he stripped away all the local treasures.

Later, I took drugs like crazy and used medicinal materials to replace a lot of experience.

"Why wait?"

Su Daoyu frowned. In this situation, the best way is to use force to overcome cleverness and cut through the mess with a sharp knife.

"If the speculation is true and Emperor Qi deceived everyone, do you think he didn't have any arrangements? Maybe we people have been under his surveillance since we entered the capital."

As he spoke, Wu Chong felt more and more dangerous.

Fortunately, he, Master Wu, has a steady hand.

He has been a 'guard' since he entered the capital. If there is any danger, the substitute brother should be able to take care of it.

"That's why we can't delay it."

Su Daoyu's attitude was very firm, but since Wu Chong said so, she couldn't deny it completely. After all, her original plan was to ask Wu Chong to help him guard the other junior brothers and sisters in the Zhenwu Sect.

"Three days. If there is still no result after three days, I will go there alone."

Wu Chong nodded and did not refuse this time.

Three days is almost enough, and with some more 'golden elixir stage' elixirs, he should be able to reach another level.

The Zhenwu Sect in Shangjing City should have better inventory.

"Okay, I have something to trouble you with."

"What's up?"

"Take me to the treasure house of Zhenwu Sect."

treasure house?

Why are they looking for the treasure house at this time? Even if there are valuable things in it, it will take time to turn it into strength. The person in the imperial city will not give them this opportunity. As for spending money to find experts, it is even more unrealistic. At their level, the experts that can be hired with money are basically unable to participate.

Although he was puzzled, Su Daoyu took Wu Chong to the treasure house of Zhenwu Sect. With the relationship between Wu Chong and Lao Tianshi, it would be okay to take something from the treasure house.

"This is my first time here since the old man disappeared."

The residence of the Zhenwu Sect in the capital is much grander than the small courtyard where Su Daoyu and the others live, with majestic buildings and tall statues of gods. Wu Chong looked at it for a long time and still couldn't figure out who the person worshiping was.

Su Daoyu may be hiding from something, and did not come back with his original identity. He brought Wu Chong and others with changed makeup. Now they are all dressed as young Taoists, and their identities are all fourth-generation disciples of the Changchun Sect.

The only thing that puzzled her was why Wu Chong had to bring his bodyguard with him wherever he went.

This made her take a few more glances at the guard.

A strange face that I have never seen before.

"Sister."

The disciples guarding the treasure house are also second-generation disciples. Like Ding Wushang, they are among the less qualified ones. He had also heard about some of the changes in the capital city, but compared to the changes outside, this disciple was more concerned about the tasks assigned to him by the Heavenly Master. So he didn't leave his post without permission.

"Open the door!"

"Sister, this is against the rules."

"Why are there so many nonsense? It's because I can't hit anyone with my fists, or the boy's wings are stiff." Su Daoyu returned to her senior sister style, raised her hand and slapped the guy on the back of the head.

"."

The Shouku disciple smiled bitterly, picked up the key and opened the door.

He also took an extra look at Wu Chong. Judging from his expression, this person should know Wu Chong.

"No outsiders allowed to enter."

Wu Chong's true form originally wanted to follow him in, but was stopped as soon as he reached the door.

"Just wait for me outside."

The stand-in reacted instantly, gave an order and followed Su Daoyu in.

Wu Chong, who was stopped, had to stay in the yard outside and began to wait for the substitute's harvest.
