That mystery man was able to hide from the explosives, yet he used his own subordinates as bait to deceive all of you. How malicious ah." Zong Zi Heng's heart palpitated, "Brother Xu, you and Cheng Zhen Ren are lucky to have survived."

"That villain's ways are too bizarre. If he is from a decent sect, he would not usually think of such underhanded methods." Xu Zhi Nan said with a hoarse voice, "It's a pity that he got away. Even though Chen Xing Yong was caught, the immortal world will still not be peaceful."

Qi Meng Sheng said, "My sect has some dealings with Yongliang, I will order someone to go to Yongliang. Perhaps we can find out which sects and people they have sold their Thunderfire Stones to."

Zong Zi Xiao snorted coldly, "Nothing is better than getting Chen Xing Yong to talk."

"Yes, we still have Chen Xing Yong. The mysterious man does not know that Chen Xing Yong is not dead, and if Chen Xing Yong knows that the man wants to kill him, he might give up and open up." Zong Zi Heng said.

Xu Zhi Nan's eyes boiled with murderous intent, "I will make him talk, no matter what method I use."

"The mystery man thinks Chen Xing Yong is dead. Then the buyers behind the Lion Alliance, all think Chen Xing Yong is dead. We can use this to our advantage." Qi Meng Sheng pondered, "Use ... Gong Shu Ju to lure the buyer of human cores who is in cahoots with Chen Xing Yong."

"Does Flying Plume Ambassador have a plan?" Xu Zhi Nan looked at Qi Meng Sheng. The Chunyang Sect's sect leader's senior brother, who was originally a eucalyptus facing the wind with dignified appearance, currently looked very pale and weak, which made people especially moved.

The cold and frosty Qi Meng Sheng's tone softened a bit: "When you are better, we will discuss it together."

Xu Zhi Nan struggled to get up, "I want to go and see Yan Zhi."

"Brother Xu." Zong Zi Heng gently pressed his shoulder, "You are not yet healed, don't move around, Cheng Zhen Ren has a doctor looking after him."

"How is his ... condition?" Xu Zhi Nan's eyes were red: "I grew up with Yan Zhi. He was proud and never slacked in his pursuit of immortality. How could this happen ..."

Cheng Yan Zhi's injuries were extremely serious. All of his internal organs were damaged, and now he only had one breath left. Even if he managed to survive, losing his golden core would mean losing the self-healing ability of a Chunyang Sect cultivator, and he would be an invalid for the rest of his life.

At this time, who dared to tell the truth to Xu Zhi Nan? A room full of people all averted his eyes in unison.

Seeing such a reaction, what else did Xu Zhi Nan not understand, and he insisted to go even more.

"Senior Brother." Xu Zhi Nan's junior brother said with tears in his eyes, "Senior Brother Cheng ... is not well. The doctor said, he's afraid, he's afraid he won't make it through the night."

Xu Zhi Nan's body shook as he gritted his teeth and said, "Take me to see him."

Zong Zi Heng and Zong Zi Xiao sat side by side on the stone steps of the courtyard, staring silently at a field of decaying and withered leaves, without speaking for a long time.

"Big brother ..."

"Xiao Jiu ..."

The two of them looked at each other in unison.

"Big brother, you speak first."

"I was thinking, if it were me, in Brother Xu's situation, would I still be able to keep you and me alive?"
