0Shangguan Yujie grabbed Gao Feng's arm and walked away. Gao Feng blushed due to her actions and looked at Feier. Feier pretended not to see anything and continued looking into the distance.

Alright, let's say I was being sentimental! Gao Feng had been hoping that Feier would help him, but seeing that he couldn't, he had no choice but to give up.    

    

Gao Feng looked at Shangguan Yujie and laughed, "I think the Xiaoxiang Palace is pretty good. Since I've only been at the Xiaoxiang Palace for a short while, I've already broken through two great realms. This proves that the Xiaoxiang Palace is a good place for me. Elder Brother Lin, do you think so? "    

    

"Yes, yes, yes." Lin Wannian said straightforwardly, "Since Young Friend Gao has already made his decision, then Little Commandery Princess, you don't have to do anything unnecessary."    

    

"Elder Brother Gao doesn't know much about the world and doesn't know how dangerous it is. I'm just afraid that you guys will use Elder Brother Gao as a gun."    

    

Shangguan Yujie, however, had to take Lin Wannian as a punching bag.    

    

Lin Wannian really had his own selfish thoughts towards Gao Feng. He couldn't just talk it out with Shangguan Yujie. Telling it to her was like telling it to the whole world.    

    

Lin Wannian smiled awkwardly and said, "Little Commandery Princess, if you don't believe me, don't tell me you don't trust your uncle?"    

    

Shangguan Yujie looked at Shangguan Tianming and said, "I don't believe anyone, I only believe what I see."    

    

"Do you believe me?" Gao Feng asked with a smile.    

    

"You …" Shangguan Yujie looked at Gao Feng blankly for a moment. Then, she quickly broke into a smile and said, "Of course I believe you, because you are my brother."    

    

Ingrate! Shangguan Tianming glared at Shangguan Yujie. A female's words towards an outsider were indeed true. It was truly a waste of the affection they had for her.    

    

Seeing Shangguan Tianming blowing his beard and glaring at him, Gao Feng's intuition was funny.    

    

Shangguan Yujie noticed Gao Feng's vulgar smile and asked with a stern expression, "What are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong?"    

    

"That's right, that's right." Gao Feng smiled embarrassedly and thought, I can't afford to offend him, am I not able to hide from him!    

    

Seeing that Lin Wannian and Shangguan Tianming were both embarrassed, Gao Feng suggested, "Elder Brother Lin, Palace Head Shangguan, it's getting late. Let's go. I have something to discuss with you two."    

    

Shangguan Yujie shamelessly said, "I want to go too, so I can give you some advice."    

    

"You …" Gao Feng said snappily, "Don't add fuel to the fire."    

    

Shangguan Yujie's pretty face turned cold as she was unconvinced, "Why am I making things difficult for you? Elder Brother Gao, can you talk too much?"    

    

Gao Feng was too lazy to waste time with her and said to Feier, "Let's go together."    

    

"I want to go too." Shangguan Yujie pouted as she followed.    

    

Gao Feng said unhappily, "Why are you following me?"    

    

"Elder sister can go, but why can't I?" Shangguan Yujie asked aggressively.    

    

"Because... "Because …" This was because she was his own Profound Beast, but Gao Feng was afraid that he wouldn't be able to explain it to her clearly.    

    

Feier saw Gao Feng's troubled expression and said in a considerate manner, "Little Brother, I won't be going. I'll stay with Younger Sister Yujie, right?"    

    

"Okay, when you return to Xiaoxiang Palace, accompany Little Commandery Princess. After I'm done, I'll come find you." Gao Feng instructed.    

    

Returning to Xiaoxiang Palace, Gao Feng followed Lin Wannian and Shangguan Tianming to Lin Wannian's residence. Seeing that there were no outsiders, he went straight to the point: "Elder Brother Lin, tell me the truth, does Xiaoxiang Palace have people who go missing frequently?"    

    

In the past few years, Lin Wannian had been in closed-door training, and he wasn't very clear about what happened at Xiaoxiang Palace, so he looked towards Shangguan Tianming.    

    

Shangguan Tianming thought about it and said with a troubled expression, "No, not before. The number of people who went missing in the last ten years has gradually increased, and many of them are core disciples."    

    

That's right, this matched his own guess. Gao Feng thought for a moment and said, "Have you guys thought about it yet? Those people didn't go missing, but they could have been killed by someone?"    

    

Shangguan Tianming said, "We also thought of that possibility, but the other party did it flawlessly, and we have no proof."    

    

Gao Feng thought for a moment, then said: "I have observed carefully, every palace in the Xiaoxiang Palace has people patrolling for twelve hours, if they want to kill a core disciple without anyone noticing, and also destroy their corpse and erase the evidence, it would not be easy for them to do so without a traitor."    

    

Shangguan Tianming could not help but ask, "You mean it could have been Liu Kun and the others?"    

    

"That's impossible!" Lin Wannian said in disbelief, "After all, Liu Kun has lived in Xiaoxiang Palace for over a hundred years."    

    

"What's impossible about that? I've always thought that Liu Kun was the one who did all those years ago, and you just didn't believe it. You even complained that I was narrow-minded and couldn't tolerate others." Shangguan Tianming said.    

    

Lin Wannian smiled bitterly and said, "Junior brother, I'm not blaming you. Doing this is not good for unity …"    

    

Shangguan Tianming interrupted him and said snappily: "I feel that without them, our Xiaoxiang Palace will be even more united."    

    

"If you can't stop now, you will suffer. Elder Brother Lin, I think it's time for you to make your decision." Wu Tie said.    

    

Lin Wannian said, "This is not something we cannot make a decision on. It is something we have no direct evidence to prove that Liu Kun and the others did." "The state law has its rules in the martial arts world. If there are no rules, then it is not within a …"    

    

"I won't listen to your reasoning." Gao Feng interrupted Lin Wannian, "Elder Brother Lin, Palace Chief Shangguan, do you guys know about Liu Kun colluding with Gu Clan?"    

    

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Wannian and Shangguan Tianming asked in unison.    

    

"When I was in exile, Liu Kun sent two groups of people to assassinate me. Both of them were Xiaoxiang Palace's disciples, but those people in the second group claimed to be disciples of Ancient Remaining Clan …"    

    

"That still cannot prove that they are disciples of Ancient Remaining Clan." Lin Wannian said.    

    

Gao Feng ignored Lin Wannian's words and continued: "I also received news that their Gu Clan s have the means to transmit the assassination attempt to every family."    

    

Lin Wannian replied without hesitation, "I've also heard about the ancient family being able to use methods to transmit images. Similarly, we have ways to know what happened at the banishment site, and we also know that two groups of people came to the banishment site to assassinate you."    

    

Gao Feng thought that Lin Wannian did not know what was going on, but he knew that Lin Wannian would be mad the moment he heard Lin Wannian. He grumbled: "Since you knew that there were two groups of people who tried to assassinate me, why did you let Liu Kun and the rest go?"    

    

"Although we also know that there are two groups of people who are trying to assassinate you, we do not know who the person who assassinated you is." Lin Wannian said, "Since we don't have any evidence to prove that those people were sent by Liu Kun, why should we alert them?"    

    

Shangguan Tianming said, "Liu Kun and Ouyang Lu are cunning and collusive, so it's very difficult to catch them! Thinking back in the past … Sigh, let's not talk about what happened back then. "    

    

Speaking of what happened fifteen years ago, Lin Wannian asked, "Young Friend Gao, it's not that I want to inquire about your privacy, but I feel that you have quite a bit of a relationship with Xiaoxiang Palace, and that your master is most likely the former sect master of our Xiaoxiang Palace."
