Jellyfish Yinji and the seven others showed no change in their expressions. In fact, they had long thought of what Lu Xiaofeng had said. They had merely been testing the waters.

Gongsun Dama was testing, Jellyfish Yinji was testing, and even Chizunxin and the others were testing. However, they were not testing the matter at hand, but rather the specific situation of Dongfang Bubai. How strong was Dongfang Bubai? This had become a heavy stone in their hearts.

Therefore, even though they knew that the Sun Moon Divine Sect was not the most suspicious, they still went to Gu Santong first. However, Gu Santong's firm response and Lu Xiaofeng's tactful handling of the matter smoothed things over, and the group could not continue to test, otherwise, it would truly mean a falling out with the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

Lu Xiaofeng also realized that these people had long understood what he was saying. They were a bunch of old foxes.

"Alright, Lu Xiaofeng, just say it! Who do you think it is?" Chizunxin said loudly.

"Right, Lu Xiaojī, speak up. I also want to see who dares to frame my Sun Moon Divine Sect." Gu Santong said with a playful smile.

Facing everyone's gaze, Lu Xiaojī blinked frankly, "I don't know!"

"I don't know!" This was within their expectations. After all, it had only been three days. If he had really found out, Lu Xiaofeng would not be human, but a god.

However, when they heard this, they still slightly frowned. The feeling of being led by the nose was not pleasant.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Huo Xiu's deep eyes stared straight at Lu Xiaofeng.

"Nothing. I can only say that everyone here is a major suspect. Of course, it could also be a conspiracy by an external force." Lu Xiaofeng shrugged and raised his eyebrows.

"Since we are all suspects, why don't we be honest with each other? I don't want to talk to someone who hides their head and tail." As he spoke, Gu Santong directly looked at Jellyfish Yinji and Gongsun Dama.

Everyone looked at the two without showing any emotion. Among the eight major forces present, only Jellyfish Yinji and Gongsun Dama had "hidden" people. One of the three people Jellyfish Yinji brought was completely hidden under a black robe.

Gongsun Dama herself was hidden under a black robe.

"Hehehe! Lord Gu is really petty. I wasn't deliberately talking about your sect just now. Why point at me so quickly?" Gongsun Dama let out a clear and pleasant laugh, looking at Gu Santong.

"Tsk!" Gu Santong whistled indifferently, staring intently at Gongsun Dama.

Although the other major figures did not speak, they also looked at Gongsun Dama with silent eyes, clearly not wanting to talk to someone who "hid their head and tail."

If it weren't for the strong power they could sense under the black robe and the fact that the person accompanying her was the head of the Red Shoes' base in Jingzhou City, they wouldn't know if this was Gongsun Dama.

"Alright then? Since everyone wants to see, I can only comply." As she spoke, Gongsun Dama stood up and pulled off her black robe with a jade hand.

Everyone was immediately surprised. Although they could tell from her pleasant voice that Gongsun Dama was a beautiful woman, they didn't know she was so beautiful.

She was a woman as radiant as the morning sun, as noble as a queen, and as graceful as a fairy. Even the clothes she wore were not of this world, but the seven-colored rainbow robes of heaven.

In her jade hand, she held a pair of short swords, each seventeen inches long, with red silk tied to the handles.

She stood there, her seven-colored rainbow robes fluttering without wind, as if a thousand ribbons were dancing.

Fortunately, everyone present had exceptionally firm minds, and they quickly recovered. They all knew that this was not just a beautiful woman.

She was a woman with a heart more venomous than a snake, with means more terrifying than a ghost, perhaps even a demon who had escaped from hell!

Therefore, no one present had any ulterior motives, not even Lu Xiaofeng, who usually prided himself on his charm.

"Now, everyone has seen. I will sit down first." Gongsun Dama said playfully, then sat down gracefully.

Everyone's gaze then shifted to Jellyfish Yinji and the black-robed figure behind her. Strangely, this black-robed figure seemed to have no martial arts skills. At least, no martial arts aura could be sensed from him.

"Hmph. The people I bring are naturally not useless." Jellyfish Yinji coldly snorted, then coldly said to the person behind her, "Reveal your true face! You've been listening for so long, what do you think?"

"Cough, cough, cough!" The black-robed figure coughed awkwardly, then, under everyone's curious gaze, untied his black robe, revealing a figure in white, elegant and charming.

"This is... Chu Liuxiang!" Lu Xiaofeng's four eyebrows suddenly twitched, and he said in surprise.

"Chu Liuxiang! The Bandit King Chu Liuxiang!"

Everyone was surprised. No one could have imagined it was Chu Liuxiang. But why was Chu Liuxiang with Jellyfish Yinji, and why did he have no martial arts aura?

"Hehehe!" Chu Liuxiang touched his nose, smiling awkwardly at everyone.

"Hello, everyone. I am Chu Liuxiang, nice to meet you all." Chu Liuxiang bowed, exuding a graceful, calm, and outstanding demeanor.

"Hehehe! Jellyfish is indeed formidable, to have captured the Bandit King Chu Liuxiang!" Gu Santong raised an eyebrow, smiling at Jellyfish Yinji.

Now, they all saw that Chu Liuxiang's martial arts had been sealed, which was why there was no martial arts aura.

Jellyfish Yinji did not speak, ignoring everyone's curious gazes.

"Cough, cough, cough. I heard everything just now, and I agree with Brother Lu." Chu Liuxiang coughed, speaking seriously.

He then bowed to Lu Xiaofeng, his calm and wise eyes curiously looking at Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng quickly returned the bow, his lively eyes also curiously looking at Chu Liuxiang. There was a mutual admiration in their eyes.

"Then, Bandit King, do you have any good suggestions?" Chizunxin looked at Chu Liuxiang with some displeasure. After all, he was the Bandit King, and Chu Liuxiang was the Bandit King, so he naturally found Chu Liuxiang annoying. In fact, not many people could make him feel otherwise.

"No!" Chu Liuxiang said straightforwardly.

Everyone was not too surprised. They were all extremely intelligent, and if they couldn't figure it out, it was normal that Chu Liuxiang couldn't either.

"Since we can't figure it out, why don't we ask Brother Lu and Brother Chu to investigate further?" Meng Shentong suggested.

Everyone thought about it and nodded in agreement. Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang were the most suitable candidates, and their character and abilities were trustworthy.

"Cough, Jellyfish, you...!" Chu Liuxiang pointed at himself, looking at Jellyfish Yinji.

"Hmph!" Jellyfish Yinji coldly snorted, waving her hands, and a stream of water appeared, striking Chu Liuxiang.

"Boom!"

Immediately, a strong aura emanated from Chu Liuxiang, but he quickly reined it in.

Everyone also roughly gauged Chu Liuxiang's strength, which was at the level of a supreme master. This made them even more curious about how Jellyfish Yinji had captured him.

Even if Chu Liuxiang was not Jellyfish Yinji's match, his supreme master-level strength and unparalleled lightness skills should have made it impossible for her to capture him.

"Chu Liuxiang, if you can find the mastermind, I will spare your beloved women." Jellyfish Yinji said coldly.

"Understood, I will do my best." Chu Liuxiang nodded seriously.

At this moment, everyone understood. Jellyfish Yinji must have used Chu Liuxiang's beloved women to threaten him, which was the best way to capture him, given their understanding of him.

"May I ask Lord Gu a question?" Chu Liuxiang thought for a moment and asked Gu Santong.

"Go ahead." Gu Santong glanced sideways at Chu Liuxiang and said casually.

"When will Lord Dongfang emerge from seclusion?" Chu Liuxiang asked with a smile.

"How would I know! Maybe in seven or eight days, maybe in seven or eight months, maybe in seven or eight years. It's uncertain." Gu Santong said casually.

"Why do you ask?" Suddenly, Gu Santong frowned and looked at Chu Liuxiang.

"Hehe! Nothing, just that Lord Dongfang is extremely powerful. With him here, the mastermind would not dare to act rashly." Chu Liuxiang smiled.

"Ha ha ha, the Bandit King is good at speaking." Gu Santong laughed heartily, seemingly very pleased.

Most people standing there, though their faces did not change, did not dare to say anything. The major figures and Lu Xiaofeng remained calm, not caring that Chu Liuxiang had placed Dongfang Bubai above them.

Soon, everyone said a few more words and dispersed. They all tacitly avoided mentioning the Liancheng Treasure, and neither Lu Xiaofeng nor Chu Liuxiang brought it up.

They understood that there was no need to mention it. It was a matter of skill, and it would depend on who could find Qi Changfa, and then the Liancheng Decree and the Liancheng Treasure.

As soon as they left the Wumei Manor's base, Gu Santong couldn't help but curse the two "troubles." Although they had temporarily cleared the suspicion, the major forces would still focus most of their attention on the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

The major forces left with different thoughts, while Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang stayed at the Wumei Manor's base. Ximen Chuixue didn't care; he didn't say a word during the meeting, just sitting there coldly.

To him, it didn't matter who the mastermind was, as they would eventually appear. At that time, a single sword thrust would suffice.

Back in the same hall, now only Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang were left. They exchanged pleasantries and then got straight to the point.

"Who do you think it is?" Lu Xiaofeng asked solemnly.

"The most impossible is also the most possible. There are too many inconsistencies in this matter, and it will take time to sort them out. However, other forces are also possible." Chu Liuxiang said meaningfully.

Lu Xiaofeng nodded, understanding Chu Liuxiang's meaning, and smiled bitterly, "We can only investigate bit by bit. It's troublesome!"

Chu Liuxiang also smiled helplessly, "It is troublesome!"

Meanwhile, in the Southwest Prince's residence, the Southwest Prince and Jin Jiuling were discussing something seriously.
