"I didn't expect Second Young Master Zhuo to also know the 'Magic Pattern', it seems that the Magic Pattern on Young Master Hang's body, Second Young Master Zhuo, you also know how it came about?"

After listening to Situ Zhuo's transmission, Duan Lingtian glanced at Situ Zhuo deeply, and then said with deep meaning.

This time, Duan Lingtian did not transmit the voice, but said it directly.

And at this moment, Situ Hou's gaze also became sharp, staring directly at Situ Zhuo, as if he wanted to see if Situ Zhuo would admit it.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I've never heard of what magic patterns aren't magic patterns. ”

Situ Zhuo didn't expect Duan Lingtian to say it directly, and he was immediately a little annoyed and angry, but he didn't dare to show it, and said stupidly.

"Second Young Master Zhuo doesn't know the magic pattern, this is strange...... Just now, it was clear that you yourself mentioned the magic pattern to me, and you asked me to stand by and watch. So, did I hear it wrong?"

Duan Lingtian said with a smile.

"Don't spew blood!"

Sensing Situ Hou's increasingly fierce gaze, Situ Zhuo's face sank, and he stared at Duan Lingtian with a fierce light, "Who are you? What is your intention?

"Bloody mouth?"

Duan Lingtian smiled, "Second Young Master Zhuo, you keep saying that I am spewing blood...... Otherwise, you and I will each make a thunder oath to see who is spewing blood?"

Duan Lingtian raised his hand as he spoke, and he was about to pinch his finger and use blood as a medium to make a thunder punishment oath.

"What are you that deserve me to confront you against the Thunder Punishment Oath?"

A trace of panic flashed in Situ Zhuo's eyes, but on the surface, he was still strong, and after sneering, he didn't even say hello to Situ Hou, and was ready to leave with the ghost-faced man behind him.

And at this moment, as if a gust of wind was blowing, Situ Hou disappeared in place.

reappeared, and it was already stopped on the way of Situ Zhuo and the ghost-faced man.

"Elder Hou, what do you mean by that?"

Situ Zhuo frowned and said.

"I think you can make a thunderous oath each...... That way, you can each prove your innocence, right?"

Situ Hou said lightly.

When Situ Zhuo heard this, his face was slightly gloomy, "Elder Hou, what kind of thing is he, and he is worthy of the thunder punishment oath against me?" Don't forget, this is the Situ family, your old man doesn't want to help an outsider, right?"

"It's not partial, even if it's helping, I'm helping you and giving you a chance to clear your suspicions. ”

Situ Hou continued.

And just as Situ Zhuo's face became more and more gloomy and speechless, Situ Hou made another move.

I saw him bypass Situ Zhuo in a blink of an eye and directly attack the ghost-faced man behind Situ Zhuo.

The momentum of the powerhouse of the Holy Realm swept towards the ghost-faced man like a black cloud pressing down on the city, making the unprepared ghost-faced man's face change greatly.

Although the strength of the ghost-faced people is good, and they have even reached the 'half-step Saint Realm', they have not broken through to the 'Saint Realm' after all, and there is still a huge gap between them and the powerhouses of the Saint Realm.

In the face of the menacing Situ Hou, the ghost-faced man did not dare to slack off, and he tried his best to make no reservations.

Are you kidding!

For him, to have reservations in front of the strong people of the Holy Realm is to seek his own death.

However, because of this, the Ghost-faced Man exposed the fact that he was a 'demon cultivator'.

When the ghost-faced man showed the power that belonged to the demon cultivator, Duan Lingtian, who was standing on the side, could also clearly perceive the imminent movement of the 'sealing demon tablet' in the Na Ring.

Duan Ling Tian directly ignored it, because it was not his turn to make a move at all now.

"Sure enough, it's a demon cultivator!"

After discovering that the ghost-faced man was a demon cultivator, Situ Hou sneered, and the momentum rising up and down his body was also getting stronger and stronger, obviously moving in earnest.

Situ Zhuo's face changed greatly, and in a panic, he crushed a jade slip.

After the jade slip was shattered, a streamer of light that was extremely fast passed through the sky, like a meteor, a flash in the pan, and disappeared in a flash.

"The jade slip engraved with the 'Warning Sacred Pattern'?"

Duan Ling Tian raised his eyebrows, he was no stranger to this kind of jade slip, when he was still in the Yueyao Sect, he participated in the 'hunting assessment', and he also got a similar jade slip.

However, compared to the jade slip he got at that time, Situ Zhuo's jade slip was obviously more advanced.

At least, he crushed the jade slip to warn, and even Situ Hou, a powerhouse in the Holy Realm, couldn't react.

Of course, this is also the reason why Situ Hou's attention is not on him.

After Situ Hou learned that the ghost-faced man was a demon cultivator, he shot again, but he had no reservations, and easily killed the ghost-faced man in the palm of his hand.

"Situ Zhuo, you dare to collude with the demon cultivator to kill the clan brother!"

After killing the ghost-faced man, Situ Hou looked at Situ Zhuo with a calm gaze, and his voice was extremely cold.

"Elder Hou, I didn't know he was a demon cultivator. ”

Even at this time, Situ Zhuo remained calm and said lightly.

"I don't know he's a demon cultivator?"

Situ Hou sneered, "You better keep yourself to tell the law enforcement elders these words." ”

As soon as the words fell, Situ Hou took a step forward and prepared to grab Situ Zhuo and take him to the Law Enforcement Hall.

And at this moment, another gust of wind blew, and a middle-aged man of medium stature appeared in front of Situ Zhuo, looking at Situ Hou with a calm face, "Elder Hou, but I don't know what fault my son has made, you have to take him to see Elder Law Enforcement." ”

"Situ Ming, you gave birth to a good son!"

Seeing the middle-aged man appear, Situ Hou couldn't help frowning, and then snorted coldly: "Today, no matter what, I will take him to the Law Enforcement Hall...... Colluding with demon cultivators and mutilating clan brothers, this crime is not small!"

"Situ Ming?"

Duan Lingtian couldn't help but glance at him when he heard Situ Hou's address to the middle-aged man.

Situ Ming, this name he had heard before he came to the Situ family, was the second master of the Situ family, and his status in the Situ family was only under the head of the family 'Situ Hao' and the three Supreme Elders, and he was also a strong man in the Holy Realm.

As soon as Situ Hou's voice fell, he went to arrest Situ Zhuo again.

This time, Situ Ming didn't stop him, just watched calmly.

When Situ Hou left with Situ Zhuo, he turned his head and glanced at Duan Lingtian deeply before he followed Situ Hou and went to Situ Family's 'Law Enforcement Hall' together.

"This Situ Ming is not a simple character...... Waiting for Elder Hou to go, I am afraid that he may not be able to help Situ Zhuo. ”

Duan Lingtian said darkly.

And the result was just as Duan Lingtian guessed, although Situ Zhuo was punished, he was only punished for three months in the law enforcement hall.

"How could the penalty be so light?"

Duan Lingtian was puzzled by this.

Situ Zhuo was adamant, he didn't know that the ghost-faced man was a demon cultivator before...... In addition, he blamed all the things about the demon pattern on the demon cultivator who was killed by me, saying that the demon cultivator engraved the 'demon pattern', and he didn't know about it. Therefore, the Law Enforcement Hall only gave him a charge of befriending a demon cultivator. ”

Situ Hou said in a deep voice, with a little unwillingness between his eyebrows.

"He should be made to make a thunderous oath to prove his innocence...... I don't think he would have dared to make such a thunderous oath. Since he didn't dare, then he was behind the scenes. ”

Duan Lingtian said, he felt that this problem was easy to solve.

"It's not that simple. ”

Situ Hou smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Immediately afterwards, Duan Lingtian also learned the 'reason' from Situ Hou's mouth.

It turns out that the Situ family is not monolithic.

The Situ family, although it is said that the head of the family 'Situ Hao' is respected on the surface, but in fact, there are nearly half of the high-level members of the family, and secretly only the second master, 'Situ Ming', is the head of the horse.

In this way, the Situ family was divided into two major factions.

In addition, the Situ family has five Saint Realm powerhouses, and in addition to Situ Hao and Situ Ming, there are still three left.

Situ Hou is one of them, and he is on Situ Hao's side.

And one of the other two Saint Realm powerhouses was on Situ Ming's side.

As for the last one, he remained neutral.

And the person who maintains neutrality is also the strongest person in the Situ family, and he is the existence with the highest rank in the Situ family, a generation higher than Situ Hou, who is a generation higher than Situ Hao, and is called the 'old ancestor' by the people of the Situ family.

According to Situ Hou's words, the 'old ancestor' of the Situ family has not shown up for many years.

The last time he appeared was when Situ Hao inherited the position of head of the family.

"I didn't expect the situation of the Situ family to be so complicated...... In that case, this matter can only be stopped?"

Duan Lingtian asked.

"After all, Xiaohang didn't have an accident, so this matter can only be resolved...... Situ's family seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it is an internal and external trouble, and even the head of the family does not dare to easily fall out with Situ Ming's lineage. Once it falls out, it will inevitably shake the foundation of the Situ family, and it will also give foreign enemies an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Situ Hou sighed, although he was unwilling, he had no choice, after all, this was the general trend.

"Foreign enemies, isn't the Situ family the royal family of Fufeng Country behind them?"

Duan Lingtian frowned, "Does anyone dare to ignore the royal family and go against the Situ family?"

"Royalty?"

When Situ Hou heard this, he shook his head, "Not to mention 'the most ruthless imperial family', even the relationship between our Situ family and the royal family is only tied to the body of 'Concubine Li'. And the forces that dare to oppose our Situ family have more or less similar relations with the royal family, and some have a closer relationship with the royal family than our Situ family. ”

"The open and secret battles of our families, in fact, the royal family also acquiesced...... The royal family is even more worried about us living in peace. Perhaps, when we really live in peace, the royal family will deliberately provoke our contradictions. ”

Speaking of which, Situ Hou sighed.

Duan Lingtian nodded, he could understand this.

The royal family of Fufeng Country naturally does not want those seventh-rate forces below to coexist peacefully, because once they coexist peacefully, those seventh-rate forces will undoubtedly rise very quickly, and in the end, they may even threaten the status of the royal family.

In order to eliminate this threat, the royal family is naturally happy to watch the 'imps' below fight.
