Why Should I Believe You?

Xianyun Continent, Yunzhou.

A few days ago, Xia Leng was expelled from the Yuxian Sect. After that, he met Feng Tianling. When he was about to escort the little girl home, the Heavenly Wolf Demon abducted him to Yuntai Peak. Not long after leaving Yuntai Peak, he met a ghost in a small inn. In order to find out who was targeting him behind the scenes, Xia Leng left with the ghost's two companions.

As a result, after two or three days of wandering, Xia Leng found himself back at the foot of the Yuxian Sect. Although he didn't know which of the seven peaks this was, he was sure that the mastermind behind his arrest must be a high-ranking member of the Yuxian Sect.

In a bamboo house at the foot of the mountain, Xia Leng was chatting with the two people who brought him here.

"Speak up, who are you?" Xia Leng asked, looking at the fat white man and the tall thin man sitting opposite him.

"Since we're here, it's okay to tell you." The fat white man showed a silly smile: "My name is Bai Xiu, and I'm the head of Yueyin Hall of Yuxian Sect's outer sect." After saying that, he pointed with his fat finger at the tall and thin man who was peeling melon seeds nearby: "This skinny monkey is..."

"Get lost!" The tall and thin man impatiently slapped the fat white man's hand away and said to Xia Leng, "I am Zhu Jianming, the head of the Wolf Claw Hall."

Xia Leng nodded, and understood that these two people turned out to be the masters of the eight outer halls of the Yuxian Sect.

"Where is that ghost?" Xia Leng couldn't help but think of the "ghost" they killed at Yunlai Inn. "Which hall is he the head of?"

"What a bullshit hall master, he is just an ordinary member of the Ghost Weapon Hall." The tall and thin man spat with disdain, "If he wasn't so good at body movement and we were from the same hometown, I would never take him out to carry out the mission no matter what."

"Little brother, tell me the truth." The fat white man narrowed his eyes slightly, "Did you kill the third ghost?"

The tall and thin man pretended to be indifferent while peeling his melon seeds, but he glanced at Xia Leng out of the corner of his eye, obviously wanting to know what the truth was.

"Do you think I can kill him?" Xia Leng asked instead of answering.

"If you kill him, then you're done. Why is it so hard to admit it?" The tall and thin man threw the melon seed shells in his hand onto the table and said coldly, "We are not his parents, so we won't seek revenge on you. Besides, you are the one the sect leader specifically asked for, so even we wouldn't dare to do anything to you."

"Who is the sect leader you are talking about?" Xia Leng asked tentatively, "The leader of the Yuxian Sect?"

When the fat white man heard this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Little brother, your brain is a little too active. Who are we? How can we possibly have a relationship with the high and mighty Great Master?"

"The Grand Master has been in seclusion for a hundred years." The tall and thin man put his hairy legs on the table, his shoes and trouser legs shaking slightly. "Before, it was Young Master Liu and the elders who were in charge, but Young Master Liu was unlucky. When he was refining the elixir, the cauldron exploded and he was directly killed. Now the Yuxian Sect is in chaos, and the position of Young Master has changed several times in a few days."

"Mr. Zhu, stop talking." The fat white man felt a chill on his back and couldn't help interrupting the tall and thin man. "This is not something we can discuss. As long as we hand this kid over to the sect leader intact, the mission will be completed. When the time comes, we will receive the reward and go down the mountain to have a good time. Don't gossip here, be careful of the disaster caused by your mouth."

"What's so secretive about this? Not to mention the inner sect, even the people in the Twelve Branches are spreading this." The tall and thin man spat out the melon seed shell that he had accidentally swallowed with an unhappy look on his face. "I think the sect leader must also want to compete for the position of young sect leader, otherwise he wouldn't..."

At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young man in a blue robe walked in slowly: "What?"

"Bai Xiu from Yueyin Hall, greets the Sect Master!" The fat white man was quick-eyed and immediately lifted his robe and knelt down.

The tall and thin man was stunned for a moment, threw away the melon seeds in his hand, and knelt down: "I didn't know that the master had arrived. I really deserve to die. Please punish me."

"Okay, you two step aside first." The blue-robed man walked to Xia Leng's side and sat down with a smile: "Mr. Leng, I invited you here so rashly, you are not scared, right?"

"Although the method is a bit inappropriate, it's not enough to scare you." Xia Leng felt that this person's attitude was quite good, so he didn't resist.

"Really? I am ashamed." The blue-robed man said with a smile, "Let me introduce myself. I am Qi Zongbai, and I used to be the deputy leader of the outer sect of Yuxian Sect. However, the main leader also went into seclusion ten years ago. Now I am in charge of all matters of the outer sect."

"Master Qi, what on earth do you want to do by bringing me here?" Xia Leng asked, "If I disappear for a long time, I'm afraid my companions will be worried."

The blue-robed man smiled and pointed at Xia Leng: "You are very smart, but you are still young after all, and some of your methods are too immature."

"What do you mean?" Xia Leng asked.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Anyway, I have already arranged for your companions to stay somewhere else." The man in the blue robe waved his hand. "Now, I want to talk to you about another matter."

Xia Leng did not ask any further questions, but waited for the blue-robed man's next words.

"What is your relationship with Elder Mu of Qingyun Peak and the guest fairy Mei?" The blue-robed man chuckled and asked Xia Leng a question.

Of course Xia Leng said it according to the background that he had prepared in advance: "I am the son of Elder Mu, and as for Aunt Mei, she is a close friend of my mother."

"That's not right." The man in blue robe shook his head and said with a little displeasure: "Mr. Leng, I think it's better for us to be frank."

"What I said is the truth." Xia Leng was not fooled and insisted on his statement.

The man in blue sighed and looked at Xia Leng, tapping his fingers on the table: "I sent someone to Lanjing to investigate your life experience and found a very interesting phenomenon."

Xia Leng didn't react at all, as if he didn't hear it.

"Your name is Leng Xia, your father is Leng Wudi, a military marquis of the Ji Dynasty, who is currently guarding the border. Your grandfather is Leng..." The blue-robed man slowly told the family information of "Leng Xia", which was almost the same as the information Ji Qingying had prepared for Xia Leng.

Xia Leng was a little anxious, but his expression didn't change at all: "Since you have already found out, why bother asking more questions."

"What's interesting is that this information is very complete in the official documents, it's perfect." The blue-robed man suddenly paused and looked up at Xia Leng: "What's weird is that no one in Lanjing has actually seen this Leng Wudi and your mother. You know, it's impossible for a person to grow up without anyone witnessing it. Unless there is only one possibility, that person doesn't exist at all."

"That means you didn't check carefully enough." Xia Leng said indifferently.

The blue robe man sighed, "You are a child of twelve or thirteen years old. You have such a mentality. It is indeed too young and old. This is not good."

Xia Leng said: "This has nothing to do with you."

"It does matter." The blue-robed man said with a smile, "Did your maid Xiao Xiu'er call you His Highness?"

"What did you do to her?" Xia Leng's eyes turned cold, "You'd better not do anything bad to them, otherwise I won't let you go."

"Don't worry, I just talked to them for a few words." Seeing the change in Xia Leng's expression, the blue-robed man finally had some confidence on his face, "That Ji Jiu is very tight-lipped, and Feng Tianling knows almost nothing about you. I can only get some information from that simple maid."

Xia Leng looked at the man in blue robe and said, "Let's get straight to the point."

"Okay, let's be frank." The blue-robed man pretended to be straightforward and said, "Qi has been the deputy sect leader for nearly 30 years. Although I am only half a step away from being the sect leader, Qi's ambition does not stop there. What Qi really wants to be is the young master of the Yuxian Sect..."

"You have great ambitions and are worthy of encouragement." Xia Leng clapped his hands and said good.

"I haven't finished speaking yet." The blue-robed man stretched out his hand and pressed Xia Lengxu, "It's just that my foundation is weak, I don't have anyone to back me up, and my cultivation is not the best among all the disciples, so my hope is really slim. Fortunately, there is always a way out. When Qi was about to give up, you showed up."

Xia Leng felt a chill: "I'm still a child!"

"Luckily it's a child." The man in the blue robe laughed and said excitedly: "If you were an adult, my chances would still be slim."

"What do you mean?" Xia Leng finally asked back.

The man in blue robe nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "I want to make a deal with you."

"Do a deal with me?" Xia Leng asked casually, "Do you want to sell children?"

"Mr. Leng, it's better to say less of this kind of thing, because it is neither funny nor in line with your status." The man in blue robe stared at Xia Leng, with a warning in his tone.

Xia Leng said coldly: "Then you'd better keep it short. I'm not interested in listening to your long speech."

"I know you are Queen Ji's illegitimate son, but I will never spread this to anyone." The blue-robed man looked extremely serious. "I hope to gain the support of Ji Chao so that I can become the young leader, or even the leader in the future..."

"You think too much." Xia Leng judged.

"Don't rush to refuse." The blue-robed man said slowly, "As long as I become the young leader, I can wait for Queen Ji's orders. If I become the leader in the future, Qi will lead the Yuxian Sect to submit to Ji Dynasty and merge into Piaomiao Xianmen."

Xia Leng said indifferently: "You can tell this to my mother, what's the point of telling me?"

"She definitely won't believe me, but she will definitely believe you." The man in blue robe said confidently.

Xia Leng smiled and said, "Why should I believe you?"

"I know the real purpose of your coming to Yuxian Sect." The blue-robed man suddenly showed a meaningful smile, "We can cooperate and each of us can get what we need, so why not do it?"

This is true, but whether this person is trustworthy or not is a very big question. Xia Leng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
