When I was a Taoist

Chapter 590
"Senior, what do you mean by that? Could it be that someone is plotting against you secretly?" I frowned and asked hastily.

Nodding his head, Tang Hao said with a gloomy face: "That's right, because the three disciples selected by the Tang Sect to participate in the competition have come to the outer sect to prepare. Not long ago, a mysterious person who didn't know his identity suddenly appeared In the outer gate, and wounded one of the disciples. Before I had time to hunt him down, this guy fled without a trace and was never found again."

"The secret whistle of the Tang Sect is so strict, how did this guy sneak in?" I was a little puzzled, and asked: "And these three disciples are the best young generation of the Tang Sect, so why were they attacked so easily?" Seriously injured?"

"Before I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all, so there were some omissions in the arrangement of the secret sentry, so that this guy could easily sneak in. As for injuring someone, I don't understand why it was easy to succeed. I only know that this disciple His body was poisoned, and he was sent back to the inner sect to save his life."

Tang Hao sighed, and continued: "So I guess, this guy is a master who is good at using poison, and his strength is not weak, I am afraid that he is not inferior to you. More importantly, this guy hides in the dark and is always there Poisoning may appear in the outer gate. Until now, people in the outer gate are panicked, and they have to be cautious when drinking water and eating. If this bastard is not caught, I am afraid that all the disciples will be tossed and mentally broken."

I remained silent. If it were me, I'm afraid it would be difficult to solve such a difficult problem.Only by finding out the identity of this mysterious person, maybe there is a way to deal with him.

"Senior, do you know why he wanted to attack you and who sent him?" I asked.

Tang Hao snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you know that Xuanmingzong is the only one who can threaten our power in this sparring. If we can solve one of our disciples, they will undoubtedly benefit the most Forces, this time the ruins will most likely fall into their hands!"

After a pause, Tang Hao slammed his fist on the table, and said bitterly: "It's just that I don't have any evidence, so I can't help these bastards at all. If possible, I would like to kill their mountain gate and avenge the disciples of the Tang gate." !"

"Senior, please don't get excited. If you really do this, you will not only let them catch the handle, but also put the entire Tang Sect in trouble."

I quickly comforted Tang Hao, and then asked curiously, "Where did Xuanmingzong come from? Why have I never heard of their name?"

"You're not in the circle here, it's normal not to know them."

Tang Hao's mood calmed down a little, and he explained: "Xuan Mingzong was a force that rose suddenly 20 years ago, and their disciples are all very strong. Our Tang Sect has accumulated hundreds of years of foundation, and we are today However, it took only a few decades for these guys who suddenly appeared to reach a height that is almost no less than ours. So I doubt that there must be someone else behind them. And this time the sneak attack is This mastermind behind the scenes planned it!"

Hearing this, I also completely understand in my heart.What Tang Hao is worried about now is not the Xuanmingzong, but the black hand behind it.It only took decades of effort to be able to support a huge force, not everyone can have such a skill.

"Senior, I think you are so anxious to see me, you must have something important to discuss with me." I looked at Tang Hao, he told me so many secrets for no reason, it must not be to vent himself dissatisfaction, but want something else.

Tang Hao was startled, then he showed a look of embarrassment on his face, nodded and said: "You are right, I also told you just now, a disciple was poisoned and returned to the inner sect to recuperate, so those participating in the sparring now There is only one candidate left. But it is too late to transfer someone from the inner sect, and there is no suitable candidate from the outer sect. So I hope you can fill this vacancy and help the Tang sect get through this crisis."

To be honest, although I have worked with Tang Hao, he also helped me a little bit.Coupled with the fact that Tang Hao's disciple died to protect me, I should agree to his request no matter what the reason.But this is a dispute between several forces. I belong to the Taoist Association. If I interfere with other forces and cause trouble, I am afraid that I will be condemned by several forces at the same time.Not only the black elders at the headquarter of the Daoist Society will take the opportunity to embarrass me, but the Tang Sect may also turn against me.At this time, the gain outweighs the loss.

Tang Hao seemed to understand my embarrassment, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I took the initiative to invite you to participate in this matter. If there is any problem, I will bear it alone. I have thought about it for a long time. Among the younger generation, I am afraid that only you can turn the tide."

"Senior, you are too proud. It is thanks to everyone's help that I can get to this day. Since you think highly of me, I am naturally willing to help. But before that, I want to call the seniors of the Daoist Society and tell them this That's it." I said with a smile.

"Of course, it should be." Tang Hao nodded again and again, a smile appeared on his serious face.

I called Elder Qingquan and the others, and both he and Shangguanmu expressed their support for my choice.After all, the reputation of Tang Sect in the whole circle still exists. If I can win them over, Tang Sect may be able to help us in the decisive battle with Tianji in the future.

Since Shangguanmu and the others agreed, I have nothing to say, and immediately started discussing the process of this exchange with Tang Hao.Tang Hao was also aboveboard, and before I asked for conditions, he promised me that if I could win, my reward would be the same as the other two disciples, and he would also give me a treasure in his own name as a reward.

Just as Tang Hao and I were discussing, there was a sudden knock on the door, and a cold voice sounded at the door: "Uncle Tang Hao, I have something important to ask you, I don't know if it's convenient for you."

"Senior, since you have something to do, let me find a place to rest first."

I thought someone had something to do with him, so I got up and left.But Tang Hao pressed me on the seat, shook his head and said: "This guy didn't come to look for me, so I just took this opportunity to introduce them to you. If there is a chance, kill them well Arrogance, let them know that there are people outside of others."
