Time Would Tell
"If it really was one of those people who did it, then changing Mask is to avoid letting people know that they were the ones who targeted you, which makes sense."
"But we'll need time to figure out the specifics."
Upon hearing this, Hun Tianlong immediately pressed for details.
"Palace Master Xiao, which ones are you referring to?"
Palace Master Xiao spoke slowly.
"The Zhi Shan Tower, the Ku Gu Gate, the Mo Wen Xuan, Miao Miao Palace are generally recognized as the most powerful, but they may not be the only ones. Everything still needs to be determined, so we shouldn't make any rash statements."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Su Zhan.
"Young Master Bai, leave this matter to me, I'll find out for you."
"They laid an ambush on your inevitable route, knowing you would come to the banquet. I bear some responsibility for this, and I will absolutely not let them remain hidden behind the scenes."
Su Zhan didn't blame Palace Master Xiao.
He's not so incapable of distinguishing right from wrong.
How could I blame you?
"However, I do need your help to determine who did it."
Thank you for your help.
Su Zhan is better at taking action. Although he is not afraid to use his brain and find out who did it, it would probably take more time. After all, he is not as familiar with some Sect as Palace Master Xiao, and he also needs to heal his injuries.
Entrusting this matter to Palace Master Xiao is actually the best choice.
Palace Master Xiao smiled.
"You're welcome. Don't worry, I'll do my best."
The banquet naturally could not continue.
Su Zhan was injured, and they didn't even know who did it. How could anyone be happy?
Everyone was furious and told Su Zhan to go and rest.
After Su Zhan left, they surrounded Palace Master Xiao, expressing their determination to help.
Palace Master Xiao was happy to agree. The best option was for everyone to work together to find clues and identify the other party, as this would help them find out who was targeting Su Zhan more quickly.
These people are all powerful figures in their own right, so it would be great if they wanted to help. Of course, Palace Master Xiao would not refuse.
Soon, everyone left.
It was common knowledge that Su Zhan had been plotted against on his way to the banquet.
Upon hearing this, the Lin Household immediately arranged for people to find out who was trying to harm Su Zhan.
In an instant, Cultivator were everywhere, eager to help Su Zhan find the culprit.
Su Zhan's popularity was very evident.
It can only be described as reaching a terrifying level.
While some were simply returning a favor, others felt it wouldn't be right not to help, and some even wanted to join in the fun, there were always various reasons that led to an increasing number of Cultivator helping Su Zhan find the culprit.
This made the mastermind behind the scenes somewhat uneasy.
"We absolutely cannot let them find out that it was done by our Miao Miao Palace."
"Elder, arrange for men to ambush those who are helping Su Zhan."
"We must inflict heavy losses on them to achieve the goal of deterrence. Then, let's see who dares to help Su Zhan."
The Palace Lord spoke in a somber tone.
He hadn't expected that his carefully laid plans, which he thought would eliminate Su Zhan, would fail. Not only that, but he had also angered those who helped Su Zhan. If the Miao Miao Palace were truly exposed, wouldn't it make them the target of everyone's hatred?
In any case, they'd better stay behind the scenes.
He knew that if people found out they were the ones who did it, it would probably drive those who were recently grateful to Su Zhan crazy. But he didn't expect them to go so crazy. He could only try his best to salvage the situation. Even though he was very confident, he didn't want to make enemies of everyone, especially before he had eliminated Su Zhan.
