The Otherworldly God

Chapter 354

Le Zhengqin's words were like a huge rock thrown into the water, causing splashes and ripples. His words not only revealed the darkness hidden deep within the Le Zheng family, but also revealed the crimes of the four elders and how they betrayed Taohua Valley, which had once been kind to them.

This information shocked and angered everyone present, and some even felt fortunate that the matter had not been made public, as the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public.

Le Zheng Qingfeng thought of the "spies" he mentioned, and his expression became serious. There were many people in the Dao League who were eyeing Le Zheng covetously. The rumor of a traitor had already made Le Zheng suffer a lot and be looked down upon. If there really was a spy who spread this matter, it would only give them another excuse to use.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "If you have nothing to do these days, just go into seclusion."

"Seclusion? That's not possible, right? We in Lezheng don't have to go in or out, but the rice and vegetables grown by the people are all outside the pass. Brother, are you going to keep an eye on them too?"

Le Zhengqin knew that Le Zhengling was saying that he suspected the people. This made him alert, although he didn't want to doubt them.

After thinking it over, Le Zheng Qin decided that even if the elder's affairs became known to everyone, it would not be likely to spread out. It was just a family scandal. Le Zheng had already cleaned up the mess on his own. As long as no victim came forward, the Taoist Alliance could not do anything to Le Zheng. His reputation was already like this, so what would it matter if it got worse?

So he decided to take a gamble. If the spy was really among the people, he would send him out of Jimen Pass and then close the pass to forbid Le Zheng from entering or leaving.

One is that the message gets out and stops there, the other is that the message cannot get out and stops there. It seems worth a try.

Le Zhengqin's eyes were firm, and he said calmly: "By noon tomorrow, except for Le Zheng, no one else with the surname of a Taoist priest can stay inside Jimen Pass, and no one from Le Zheng can leave the pass." Everyone was stunned. This kind of thing was rare. In history, all the heads of families who did this were infamous for thousands of years. Le Zhengqin once again expressed his firm position: "No exceptions."

In the past, Le Zheng Qin always had to compromise and was suppressed by the elders, trying hard to find ways to change Le Zheng.

Le Zhengbo and Le Zheng Qingfeng could understand why he asked Le Zheng Yuhua and others to go to the dangerous place. He hoped that others could see that it was not enough to just promote magic. Sure enough, Le Zheng Yuhua and others still brought a different wind to Le Zheng.

Le Zhengbo took a step forward and deliberately murmured loudly: "Le Zhengyuhua stole my swordsmanship, I have to ask him for the master's fee."

"Brother Bo, please stay!"

Le Zhengbo didn't look at Le Zhengqin, but joked: "They are rich now, so don't try to evade me by saying you can't afford it."

"He's not in Fangyuan."

Le Zhengbo stopped walking, his eyes changed, but he raised the corner of his mouth, "Brother, don't lie to me, you just came back from Fangyuan, right?"

"When Junior Sister Fang and I went there, they were no longer at Jimen Pass."

"Not at Jimen Pass? Them?"

Le Zheng Tianxing jumped down and smacked his lips, "They really love to run around. They run away in the blink of an eye. Now that I am a formal Taoist priest, some rules are no longer applicable."

"With Shui Ling here, no rules are necessary. She has gone to find Senior Brother He, and Yu Hua and Qi Ming are accompanying Madam An's youngest son to find Senior Brother Lei and his two sons."

Le Zhengqin's words once again stirred up a thousand waves, and Le Zhengqingfeng stood up and walked out.

"Brother He? Did you hear wrongly?"

Le Zhengling said seriously: "An's soul-chasing technique."

"We thought about it before, but unfortunately Madam An refused to lend it to us, so we never had the chance to use it to look for Senior Brother He, Zuo Si, and Yang Yan. This time, they finally found a clue using the soul-chasing technique. Shui Ling is his daughter after all, so it's only right for her to go look for them."

"Didn't you ask?"

"Shui Ling didn't tell anyone, and I saw that something seemed to have happened to them, so I didn't ask any further questions."

"Compared to what happened to Senior Brother He, what happened to them is nothing important!"

"Junior Brother Qingfeng!"

Le Zhengbo held his shoulders, and he calmed down a little.

"Did Senior Brother Lei get into trouble?" Le Zheng Ling asked worriedly. "It was very difficult for him and his two nephews to get to Fengwu City. Now, they are gone. Who else in Fengwu City will protect us Le Zheng? The Dao Alliance is clearly targeting us Le Zheng this time. First it was the Black Forest, and now it's some kind of demon beast. This is really too much."

"At least they are still alive. It's hard to say about the rest. I hope Yuhua and the others can find them in time."

"They in Fangyuan are really good at doing things in private. Even such an important matter doesn't need to be reported. Senior brother still wants to hand Le Zheng over to that Shui Ling. I'm afraid there will be a big uproar. If he can't correct himself, how can he correct others?"

Le Zhengqin glanced at Le Zheng Sihui and turned to face the door.

"If I give the order, the position of the head of the family, looking at the entire Le Zheng now, no one is more suitable than her. There are some things I cannot say clearly, I just hope that you can be loyal to Le Zheng and consider the overall situation."

After saying that, Le Zhengqin left with his hands behind his back, and the few people naturally dispersed.

When Le Zhenghongjun saw Le Zhengqin coming back, he immediately put down the book in his hand and came to greet him. Before he could say anything, Le Zhengqin said directly: "Why are you waiting for me? Just go to sleep."

Le Zheng Hongjun noticed that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to ask anything else and could only ask about other things.

"Master, are you hungry? I'll go make you some noodles right now."

"Not hungry."

As Le Zhengqin spoke, he took off his outermost layer of clothes and changed into another set. He also changed his boots and other clothes into casual home clothes.

"Can I get you some hot water to wash your face?"

"I'm not going to sleep yet."

Le Zheng Hongjun was swaying beside him. Le Zheng Qin was blocked by him several times and had to stop and look at him. Only then did Le Zheng Hongjun react and move aside.

"Master..."

"If there's nothing I've done that makes you uncomfortable, go get me some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone."

"It's so late, Master, do you still want more?"

"If you don't finish it tonight, you won't be able to catch up tomorrow. Why don't you hurry up and prepare?"

"I'll go right away, Master, please wait a moment."

Le Zheng Hongjun then ran to prepare, but the more anxious he became, the more chaotic the situation became. In the end, it was Le Zheng Qin who had to use magic to deal with it.

Le Zheng Hongjun was serving beside him, watching Le Zheng Qin writing on the paper stroke by stroke. At first, it seemed fine, but after one sentence, he felt something was wrong.

The more Le Zhenghongjun read on, the wider his eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: "Master, are you confused?"

“I’ve never been so awake.”

Le Zheng Hongjun stretched out his hand to block his pen, not caring at all about getting his hands dirty with ink.

"Master, do you know what this means? The people of Jimen Pass have never done us any wrong. If you don't want to be the head of the family, then don't do it. I can accompany you to travel around the world, but this is something that will destroy your reputation. Although you have done nothing wrong over the years, you will lose all your reputation if this order is issued."

Le Zhengqin waved his hand and pushed him aside, then said solemnly: "Compared with their lives, what is my reputation?"

After saying that, he continued to write, and Le Zheng Hongjun could only watch.
