Chapter 1331 Show off One's Horse's Feet
Facing such a situation, Xiao Ruo was naturally extremely anxious. Su Yun was sitting here as a living person, how could he let them in?
"This … temporarily cannot come in …"
In a hurry, Xiao Ruo hurriedly said.
After saying this, there was a brief silence outside the room, and then the voice came out again.
'"Sir Xiao, is it inconvenient for you now? If it is inconvenient now, I can wait outside the house. When it is convenient, I can enter. This is because the Immortal Court President personally gave the order. We dare not neglect it. Please forgive me, Sir Xiao."
Hearing these words, Xiao Ruo felt a headache. Emotionally, these fellows did not plan to leave. If they did not leave, then Su Yun would not be able to leave. Although she had become the head of the Immortal Court's Ministry of Resources, this place of cultivation was not that big. It was still very difficult to hide a person! !
"Then … then wait a moment. I'm naked now …"
Xiao Ruo shouted.
After saying that, the people outside were a little speechless, but they all understood. They only assumed that Lord Xiao Ruo was cultivating.
However, this could not be delayed for too long. Xiao Ruo knew very well that if he did not hide Su Yun, the crisis would not be resolved. However, Su Yun was already in a meditative state, unable to touch him at all, let alone hide him with an illusory canvas.
What should we do? What should we do?
Xiao Ruo's heart was filled with anxiety.
She had originally thought that after Xuan Hong had come, no one would come back, but she never expected that the situation would be so serious, and the Immortal Court had repeatedly reviewed it.
Deep down…
At this moment, there was another knock on the door.
"Lord Xiao, it's already been half an incense stick of time. Are you still not well?"
The voice from outside was somewhat puzzled.
Xiao Ruo knew that they could not delay any longer, otherwise, they would have doubts in their hearts.
But, if we don't delay, should we let them in? ?
Xiao Ruo thought about it and suddenly her expression turned cold.
She quickly took out a few pills from her space bag, poured a pot of immortal tea, injected some immortal energy into the pills, rubbed them into powder with her fingers, and then sprinkled them into the immortal tea.
Immediately after, she took out a shelf and surrounded Su Yun. Then, she took out the illusory canvas and placed it on the shelf. Su Yun was blocked in the middle, but he was not touched by the canvas. The canvas was activated, and this place immediately became a huge pill furnace.
Seeing that everything was fine, Xiao Ruo immediately walked over, removed the barrier, and opened the door.
Outside the door stood four men wearing black armor and a knife. One of them was Gongsun Zhang, who wore a blindfold and had short hair. Seeing Xiao Ruo open the door, everyone cupped their fists at Xiao Ruo and greeted him, "Greetings, Lord Xiao Ruo."
"Everyone, you're welcome." Xiao Ruo expressionlessly looked at the four of them and said, "May I know what is the matter with everyone coming to me?"
As she spoke, she even tugged at her clothes, proving that she was indeed naked just now. However, there was no intention of letting the four of them in.
Gongsun Zhang looked around and whispered, "Sir Xiao Ruo, there are many people here. Why don't you go in and talk?"
Hearing that, Xiao Ruo hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Alright, come in and talk."
As Xiao Ruo spoke, he turned around and walked in.
The four of them entered the room one after another, and the door was closed.
When they entered the room, everyone looked around. Xiao Ruo frowned slightly. He knew that these fellows still had some doubts in their hearts, so he said, "Everyone, if you have anything, just tell me. Xiao Ruo, listen up."
Gongsun Zhang hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Since Lord Xiao has said this, we won't waste Lord Xiao's time. Let's cut to the chase. In fact, we have a very confidential important matter to discuss with Lord Xiao." "As for this matter, every department has a special person to discuss it with the various ministries. This matter concerns whether our Immortal Court can safely survive this turmoil and whether it can continue to grow in the future. Therefore, it is very important."
Hearing Gongsun Zhang's words, Xiao Ruo felt that things were much more serious than he had imagined. He immediately asked, "What exactly is going on?"
Gongsun Zhang took out a small silver notebook and opened it. It was filled with the names of the personnel of the Ministry of Resources. Some of them had crosses, some had checks, and many had no traces.
"What is this?" Xiao Ruo asked, puzzled.
"This is the name list of the personnel of the Ministry of Resources." Gongsun Zhang pointed to the top and said, "The people who ticked it proved that they were innocent, innocent, and loyal to the Immortal Court, and the people who ticked it … are all people who might have betrayed the Immortal Court and cheated the thieves. They are all under control and sent to the Criminal Department. The remaining people who did not make a mark are those who have not yet been dealt with."
"Is that so?" Xiao Ruo's heart skipped a beat. Although she knew that the people of the Immortal Court were searching for Su Yun's whereabouts, she never expected that the higher-ups would actually pay so much attention to this matter, to the point of capturing people recklessly!
"Right now, the various departments are conducting investigations, so many things have to be suspended. From this, it can be seen that the higher-ups attach great importance to this chaos in the forbidden area. If they don't give an explanation, I'm afraid that no one will be able to survive." Gongsun Zhang sighed.
"Then … why are you looking for me?" Asked Xiao Ruo.
'"I would like Lord Xiao to cooperate with us and provide us with clues to help us find out who might be hiding in the Ministry of Resources. In addition, the higher-ups have issued a secret order. There should be a spy on the Devil Cultivator in our Immortal Court. Lord Xiao, while you are searching for that thief, I hope you can pay attention to it. If there are any clues … please notify us in time."
Gongsun Zhang said in a low voice, his words very carefully.
Although Xiao Ruo was expressionless on the surface, his heart skipped a beat.
I didn't expect the Immortal Court to have noticed this. It seems that we still need to be cautious when contacting Su Yun in the future.
Gongsun Zhang wanted to say something to Xiao Ruo, but at this moment… Hiss…
A slight noise suddenly came from the side. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, only to see that the huge cauldron beside them suddenly twisted.
Everyone was shocked. They immediately stood up and looked at the cauldron vigilantly.
"What's going on?"
"This cauldron… is it a disguise?"
Gongsun Zhang frowned and shouted in a low voice.
"This is just a magic treasure of mine. After the medicinal pills in the pill furnace are practiced quickly, this phenomenon will occur. Everyone, don't be nervous." Xiao Ruo hurriedly stood up and forced out a smile. Then, he picked up the immortal tea and handed it to everyone.
"Come on, everyone has been busy for so long. You should be tired, right? Come, have some tea. This is specially prepared for you."
Said Xiao Ruo.
"Hmph, Lord Xiao, why are you deceiving us? Although our strength is weaker than Lord Xiao's, we can still tell if this cauldron is an illusion."
Gongsun Zhang said coldly. Then, he walked over and reached out to grab it.
The illusory canvas was immediately pulled off, and the cauldron disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a few crooked bookshelves, as well as a sturdy man with a naked upper body.
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned.
"You…"
The man inside was also quite shocked. He took two steps back and carefully looked at these people.
"Who are you?" Gongsun Zhang asked.
"I… I… I am" The man hesitated for a moment, but he didn't know how to answer.
But at this moment, Xiao Ruo suddenly spoke up.
"He … he is … he is my dual cultivation partner!!!!"
Her words were somewhat shy and stuttering, making it clear that she was very nervous at this moment.
However, these words left Gongsun Zhang and the others shocked.
Ever since Xiao Ruo entered the Immortal Court, she had always been decisive and hard-natured. She never involved men and women, making many immortals who admired her feel discouraged. Naturally, her fame had grown.
I heard that there are already a few immortals with high official rank who are interested in her, hoping to form a dual cultivation partner with her, but all of them have been rejected by her. Now that everyone heard Xiao Ruo's words, they were incomparably shocked! !
"Sir Xiao, what you said… can't be true?" Gongsun Zhang shouted.
'"Still… can it be fake? Just now… I didn't open the door just now because we were…" Xiao Ruo stuttered as his face turned red as if he was on fire.
Gongsun Zhang and the others weren't fools. If they still didn't understand what Xiao Ruo meant, then they would be mentally retarded.
Gongsun Zhang coughed for a moment, his face also showing some embarrassment. "So … so it's like this …"
"Sir Xiao Ruo is practicing martial arts. We understand… we understand…"
Everyone said.
Although he said it politely on the surface, everyone's thoughts were different. Doesn't he secretly curse Xiao Ruo for being different? He looks like a pure woman, but in reality, he is so lascivious.
Gongsun Zhang looked at Su Yun, looked around, and said, "But speaking of which, Lord Xiao, is this Lord… a member of our Immortal Court?"
"Ah… he… he… he's not from the Immortal Court… he's… he's…"
"I am from the Eight Trigrams Sect. I came here on orders from the sect to communicate and learn. I have known Lord Xiao Ruo before, so … hehe …"
"Oh? So it's someone from the Eight Trigrams Sect…"
"I do have some skills."
Gongsun Zhang and the others laughed. They looked at the guy in front of them. His skin was a little pale, but his entire body looked exceptionally well-dressed. He was quite handsome, but he didn't know how strong he was.
No wonder Xiao Ruo rejected so many immortals. She already had a dual cultivation partner.
But at this moment, Gongsun Zhang suddenly thought of something. His expression suddenly turned cold as he stared at the man coldly. He asked, "Since you're hiding at the side, let me ask you, did you… hear our conversation with Lord Xiao Ruo just now?"
