Chapter 1352 Shouldn't I Ask?
Bei Yan Yungui's face turned purple after being slapped in public, but he didn't dare say another word. He bit his lip and sat down.
Bei Yan Yunyi couldn't help but sigh softly, then turned to look towards the head seat.
Shi Feidao Ren's expression was also extremely unsightly.
Among everyone in the room, only the Bei Yan family were direct descendants of the Six Doors.
Regardless of whether Shi Feidao Ren wanted to support the Bei Yan siblings, this farce was enough to make Shi Feidao Ren feel utterly humiliated.
I stole a glance at everyone's expressions:
Xia Zhou was waving his fan, smiling without saying a word.
That girl was gently blowing on the hot air of her tea, as if she hadn't seen anything!
At that moment, I was wondering who Shi Feidao Ren favored.
Based on Shi Feidao Ren's current position alone, it could be proven that the Six Doors' principles were deeply rooted in his heart.
The reason why the Six Doors had been able to stand firm was that they served the dynasty but did not participate in its disputes.
Historically, there had been cases of the Embroidered Uniform Guard being completely loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and Eastern Depot eunuchs following the emperor to the death, but there had never been a case of the Six Doors fighting to the end for a particular dynasty.
To put it more clearly, the Six Doors could only unleash its greatest power when it submitted to the emperor.
Shi Feidao Ren should be the one moving the pieces on the board, choosing his master.
Who did Shi Feidao Ren favor?
Bei Yan Yungui?
Xia Zhou?
Or the Samsara Division?
While I was pondering, Shi Feidao Ren spoke, "I have invited everyone here today for only one purpose, and that is to decide the ownership of the Six Doors."
"In order to avoid hurting anyone's feelings, I have decided that you will all enter the secret realm together and head to the Sunken River (Xian Yang He), the place where sorcerers are exiled."
"Whoever obtains the secret of the Sunken River will be the winner of this competition and will receive all the resources of the Six Doors."
"I wonder if anyone has any objections?"
Seeing that none of us spoke, Shi Feidao Ren continued, "Since no one has any objections, then I will explain the rules of the competition."
"For this competition, each group can send a maximum of ten people, including ghosts and deities. If you feel that you do not have enough people, you can gather more manpower within two days, or replace your current personnel."
The Samsara Division spoke first, "We have enough people, we don't need to make any changes."
Bei Yan Yungui also said, "It seems that the only one who needs to add people is the Two Realms Hall, right?"
I sneered, "The people we have now are more than enough to deal with you. You better watch yourself!"
Shi Feidao Ren raised his hand to stop Bei Yan Yungui before saying, "Since you have no other questions, I will continue to explain the rules."
"We will be using a point system for this competition."
"The first to arrive at the Sunken River will receive one point. However, if a prisoner dies or escapes during the escort, no points will be awarded."
"Entering the Sunken River Prison Camp will earn you one point."
"Obtaining the secret of the Sunken River will earn you three points."
"There are only five points in total, and points can only be deducted, not added."
"Do you all understand?"
I raised my hand and said, "Wait a moment. I would like to ask, if the prisoners from Bei Yan Yungui's side escape, and I recapture them, and I bring two prisoners to the Sunken River..."
"Will I get extra points?"
"This..." Shi Feidao Ren pondered for a moment and said, "Yes! But you cannot deliberately steal other people's prisoners."
I laughed and said, "Don't worry, I haven't stooped to that level yet."
As I spoke, I deliberately glanced at Bei Yan Yungui, who was immediately enraged.
Shi Feidao Ren continued, "Another rule of the competition is that the four groups can cooperate, but they cannot attack each other or engage in malicious competition. Otherwise, they will be directly disqualified."
"This requires you to sign a contract to ensure fairness."
Seeing that we had no objections, Shi Feidao Ren said again, "I will be accompanying you throughout the competition to ensure its fairness. I believe you have no objections to this, do you?"
I raised my hand and said, "I have an objection!"
Before Shi Feidao Ren could speak, I heard Bei Yan Yungui sarcastically say, "Why is it always the Two Realms Hall that has objections? Are you afraid of losing?"
"If that's the case, you should withdraw early! Save yourself the embarrassment."
This time, I didn't argue with Bei Yan Yungui. "I, the Two Realms Hall, am not incapable of losing, nor am I afraid of losing, but I cannot lose inexplicably."
"I believe the other two probably have the same thought as me, right?"
Xia Zhou smiled without saying a word.
The girl from the Samsara Division also remained silent.
Only Shi Feidao Ren spoke, "Hall Master Li, if you have any doubts, you may speak them."
I stared intently at Shi Feidao Ren and asked, "What I want to ask you is, have you slept with Jing Henyun?"
Shi Feidao Ren didn't expect me to ask such a question, and his old face immediately turned red.
This time, even Bei Yan Yunyi couldn't help but slam her hand on the table and stand up. "Li Po, you've gone too far!"
I spread my hands and said, "Do you think I shouldn't ask?"
