The reason why a secret is called a secret is, of course, because it cannot be told out loud.
Of course Mu Heiya was unwilling to tell the secret.
Everything is just an excuse to get away smoothly.
But what the member of the Security Committee headquarters did not expect was that Goethe would appear at such a critical moment.
etc!
Why did Goethe appear at such a critical moment?
And is the 'power of the universe' that he just displayed really uncontrollable only because of his 'bloodline'?
Could it be intentional?
Questions one after another appeared in Mu Heiya's mind.
Along with it, there are also speculations one after another.
It's a guess, not an answer.
But it was precisely because of this speculation that Mu Heiya came up with more answers.
Facing Mu Heiya's gaze, Goethe did not make any explanation.
The female swordsman picked up the teapot and made tea for Goethe.
After the water boils, keep it at around 70 degrees.
The tea was a local tea bought by Zhao She, called 'Little Dragon Ball'.
Green tea is the embryo and white orchid is the branch.
As soon as the swordswoman raised her hand, water flowed out from the spout of the teapot and flowed down. The teapot was then raised, and the water line immediately "drew" a beautiful arc. This arc shortened and lengthened as the swordswoman's hand holding the teapot moved up and down, allowing the tea leaves in the tea bowl to overflow with rich fragrance in the shortest time.
Gently lift the lid of the bowl, and pour the bright tea into the teacup.
Goethe picked up the teacup, smiled at the female swordsman, and took a sip.
Goethe had no knowledge of tea, but the tea brewed by the female swordsman was excellent.
Not bitter or astringent, but with a hint of sweetness.
Mu Heiya knew about tea, so he knew that the tea brewed by the female swordsman was excellent.
Because the female swordsman put her heart into it.
But I only put my heart into it for Goethe.
For him?
It's basically the same as a big bowl of tea.
Even tea leaves are the same.
Moreover, for some reason, Mu Heiya always felt that there was a similarity between Goethe and the female swordsman who were smiling at each other.
"The legendary couple look?"
Mu Heiya felt his throat getting dry as he thought about it, and subconsciously picked up the teacup, wanting to moisten his throat. However, as soon as the tea went into his mouth, he felt a discomfort in his stomach, and he seemed to hear bursts of dog barking in his ears.
Woof woof woof...single dog...
Woof woof woof...middle-aged single dog...
Woof woof woof... a middle-aged single dog who eats dog food...
Inexplicably, such a voice echoed in Mu Heiya's ears. He really wanted to smash the teacup. It was really too bullying.
But he didn't dare.
He couldn’t beat Goethe before.
He is even more unable to defeat Goethe now.
Moreover, Goethe's plan...
Thinking of this, Mu Heiya's face straightened.
"You deliberately revealed the fact that you already possessed the 'power of the universe', both for the purpose of shocking them and for 'fishing', because you knew very well that the other party's alliance was loose and could even be broken with just one poke. "
"So, you have to burst this alliance."
"Let more people fall to you."
"Then, you can take action to deal with the real enemy."
"Just like what Master Martial Saint said: arrest one group and beat another."
As he said this, Mu Heiya sighed.
Goethe: What nonsense are you talking about?
Looking at Mu Heitie who was obviously getting into the state, Goethe ignored him.
He picked up the teacup and looked at Mu Heiya who seemed to be lost in his memories.
"From the moment you first entered their field of vision, you knew that there would be no gentler means. Once the two sides fell out, it would be a fight to the death. That's why you have been hiding yourself."
"Until you think you have enough strength."
"Just like the 'Martial Saint' lurking in the boxing gym back then."
"even……"
"You should have guessed that I would take the initiative to ask to come to Green Ivy City!"
"No!"
"wrong!"
"Not only did you guess that I would take the initiative to ask to come to Green Ivy City, but also, because I took the initiative to come to Green Ivy City, you confirmed that the 'Security Committee' is not a monolithic organization."
"besides!"
"Your so-called 'seclusion' is nothing more than attracting more people's attention."
"Three months is enough time to do a lot of things—
For example: introducing the 'Tiandao League', 'Emperor Lotus Sect', and 'Tingqi Pavilion'.
You should also know that the 'Seven Killings Hall' is one of the four sects and four halls of the 'Sacred Heart Society', and is the next target of the 'Heavenly Dao League', the 'Emperor Lotus Sect', and the 'Tingqi Pavilion'.
So, you set a good trap for them.
This is also the reason why according to your personality, you would take such a high-profile action against the 'Seven Killing Hall'.
is that so?"
As he spoke, Mu Heiya looked up at Goethe.
“Well, that’s about it.
But there is one thing you didn’t expect.”
Goethe admitted it solemnly.
He didn't want to do it, but Mu Heiya persuaded him.
That seems to be the case.
If he didn't admit it, it would seem a bit hypocritical.
But there is one thing he must emphasize.
"Which one?"
Mu Heiya frowned, he thought he had thought of everything, how could there be anything missing?
Immediately, Mu Heiya became more and more curious.
Then--
Goethe turned his head to look at the female swordsman, raised his hand and held her hand.
“You were my surprise.
The unexpected that I never thought of .
You caused changes in my plans. I hate changes. I even spent three months thinking about whether it was worth it. But do you know how I spent these three months?
I think of you every moment, day and night.
For the first time, I experienced the feeling of suffering.
That was a more painful feeling than any desperate situation I had ever faced.
Accident?
No!
That is a gift.
I am grateful.
I met you.
You filled my world with color and taught me that there should be more to life than just revenge."
Goethe's voice was soft and his expression was sincere.
The female swordsman's expression was moved, and there were even tears in her eyes.
Muhei Cliff?
Woof woof woof!
He regretted it.
He regrets it so much.
What are you asking?
Things were going great just now, but you have to make things difficult for yourself.
Um?
etc!
Li Yuan?
Knight?
So that's how it is!
Mu Heiya not only felt bloated by the dog food, but also a little panicked. But even so, after thinking calmly, he still found something different.
Li Yuan was a member of the "Xia Ke" group, and he knew that.
Knowing this, he used the secret of the "knight" from thirty years ago as bait.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all.
Rather, Goethe knew Li Yuan's heart knot, so he made him the 'bait', and then reappeared to force him to tell everything.
In order to help Li Yuan resolve her emotional issues, he actually took the initiative to reveal his hidden cards.
Women really do affect my sword-drawing speed.
only……
What's going on with this faint feeling of envy?
As Mu Heiya thought about it, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He raised his head and stared at Goethe, and couldn't help asking.
“Is it worth it?”
"worth."
Goethe smiled and spoke calmly, but his eyes were on the female swordsman from beginning to end.
Mu Heiya rolled his eyes.
He realized that he shouldn't have asked.
It's useless to ask.
When you fall into the sour taste of love, everything becomes unreasonable.
Everything is unreasonable, yet so reasonable.
Similarly, Mu Heiya also understood.
He must tell the truth about the secret of the 'knight' thirty years ago, otherwise, he will not be able to leave.
Goethe, who seems to be a reasonable guy, will probably be the first one to attack him.
After all, it's just what it seems.
Actually?
The person who planned all this is no longer someone who can be described as "scheming". Instead, he should be described as "terrible".
But isn't this normal for an 'Avenger'?
Or rather, that's the only way.
Revenge is possible.
Thinking of this, Mu Heiya sighed.
"Thirty years ago, different voices emerged within the Security Committee - because of certain rules of the descendants of the Martial Saint and the Thirteen Continents... those rules that could be felt by a few people but could not be stated explicitly."
"There are originally two sets of rules in this world."
"One set for everyone to see. "
"One set for a few people."
"All I see is a lot of talk about morality and justice."
"What is used is the benefit that cannot be mentioned at all."
"The former made chicken soup, which was delicious in one gulp."
"the latter?"
"I ate the chicken, it was soft and full."
"So, when someone wanted to make the latter public, they were naturally besieged by all the vested interests, including the 'Security Committee', 'Tiandao League', 'Emperor Lotus Sect', and 'Tingqi Pavilion'."
“They are all vested interests.”
Having said that, Mu Heiya glanced at the female swordsman who clenched her fists.
His voice unconsciously lowered.
"Some people from the 'Security Committee' became 'bait' in that operation. The 'Emperor Lotus Sect' arranged and attacked, and directly killed the backbone of the 'Knights'."
"It seriously hurts the knight's vitality."
"What else?"
The female swordsman's voice turned cold.
At this time, Goethe gently patted the back of the female swordsman's hand.
The female swordsman was a little confused, but she believed in Goethe and immediately gave the right to speak to him.
And Goethe looked towards Muheiya.
"Let's talk about the 'Emperor Lotus Sect'."
"The person I least want to talk to is someone like you, Goethe. If it was Li Yuan, I could still avoid the main point, but you..."
Mu Heiya smiled bitterly again.
Once again, the member of the Security Council headquarters witnessed Goethe's keenness.
"The 'Emperor Lotus Sect' was formed by the exiled royal family members when the previous dynasty collapsed. They moved from the open to the dark and established the 'Emperor Lotus Sect' with the resources of the dynasty."
"Even the real emergence of the 'Tian Dao League' and the 'Ting Qi Pavilion' is closely related to the 'Emperor Lotus Sect'."
"As for the 'Safety Committee'?"
“Not at first.”
"But as time went by, the 'Emperor Lotus Cult' quietly extended its tentacles into the area. At least one of the nine members of the 'Security Committee' is from the 'Emperor Lotus Cult'."
"Who is it?"
Goethe asked.
"It's His Excellency 'Gentleman Sword'."
Mu Heiya said truthfully.
"Your last name isn't Yue, is it?"
Goethe raised an eyebrow and then asked.
Goethe's strange expression surprised Mu Heiya. He didn't know what the "Gentleman Sword" had to do with the surname Yue, but the congressman's surname was definitely not "Yue".
"No, that gentleman's surname is 'Feng'."
"The Xie family and the Qin family each have one councillor seat."
"My teacher 'Jiang Yiquan' is also one of the councillors."
"The other three are the Wang, Zhao, and Li families."
"The last two are Senior Ling Xiaozi, the headmaster of Taiyi Mountain, and Senior Xuan Bei, the abbot of Dalin Temple."
Mu Kuroya introduced the nine councillors.
“You said at least one.
Who do you suspect then?"
Goethe continued to ask.
"It's impossible for Senior Ling Xiaozi and Senior Xuan Bei to come. Taiyi Mountain and Dalin Temple are large and powerful. They existed several dynasties ago and have a history of thousands of years. The Security Committee also took the initiative to invite the two seniors."
"It's also impossible for the overseas Qin family. The Qin family member overseas is like an emperor, which is also impossible."
"The Xie family is similar."
"So, the Wang , Zhao, and Li families are the most suspicious."
"But which one specifically?"
"I can't be sure."
Mu Heiya answered.
This member of the 'Safety Committee' automatically omitted his teacher.
Goethe was not surprised by this.
This is human nature.
But it is precisely because of this that Goethe becomes more and more curious about Mu Heiya's teacher 'Jiang Yiquan' - the more impossible a person is, the more likely he is to become that possibility.
Goethe knew this when he was in the "Club".
Otherwise, he would not have been able to join the club.
"What about the specifics of the 'Emperor Lotus Cult'?"
Goethe did not dwell on Jiang Yiquan's question, but continued to ask questions that interested him.
"have no idea!"
"Don't look at me like that, I really don't know!"
"Over the years, I have learned some things that I don't want to know, so I have chosen to live a muddled life. If it weren't for my teacher, I would have been expelled long ago."
"Under such circumstances, it is already extremely unexpected that I can know this."
"Still want to know about the 'Emperor Lotus Sect'?"
"That's really impossible."
Mu Heiya spread his hands and shrugged.
Goethe laughed.
The smile is a little cold.
It's a little creepy.
"Goethe, don't laugh like that, be normal."
"I promise you, I will investigate the 'Emperor Lotus Cult'!"
“Give me some time!”
"Two months... No, just one month will do!"
Mu Heiya said this with an oath and a curse.
Because he really saw murderous intent in Goethe's eyes.
He swore that everything he said was true.
He really didn't lie.
But Goethe seemed to have misunderstood that he was playing a trick on him.
"One week!"
"You only have one week!"
Goethe emphasized.
"Isn't one week a little too short? No problem, one week is just one week!"
"So can I leave now?"
Mu Heiya asked helplessly.
Goethe nodded.
Immediately, Mu Heiya got up and left.
Those subordinates also walked out of the room under the supervision of the Four Wonders of the South China Sea, the Six Ghosts of Mangshan, the Three Heroes of Jiangdong, Qian Ding and Sun Liu, got on the big truck, and drove away in a flash.
At this moment, Zhao She came from a distance.
"Master, Madam, someone has handed in a visiting card."
As Zhao She spoke, he took out a visiting card.
The visiting card was white in color, but in the center, a word was written in cinnabar red ink:
Hero!
