The energy of the crystal essence was not only majestic, but also extremely pure. After Sang Ye absorbed it, he was never able to return to his human form.

Xuanyuan was very worried about him and always stayed by his side to help take care of him.

On the third day, Sang Ye's spirit improved slightly.

"I might be on the way up," he said.

Slowly touching the python's body: "Do you need our help?"

Sang Ye stretched out Snake Xinzi and licked her cheek: "I may have to shed my skin during this upgrade, so I have to leave the rocky mountain and find a safe place outside."

He slowly asked: "Can't you shed your skin in the rocky mountain? Aren't there two floors underground that are empty? It's a big place there and it's quiet. You can go there and shed your skin."

"no."

"Why?"

Sang Ye explained patiently: "Snake beasts need a lot of water to shed their skin, and when I shed my skin, I will make a lot of noise. I'm afraid it will destroy the foundation of the fortress. I can't stay here to shed my skin."

In desperation, Xuanyuan could only sigh: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Xuanyuan and Bai Di sent Sang Ye away from the fortress. Shuangyun was still busy interrogating Ma Qing and had no time for the time being.

Sang Ye chose that lake.

That was the place where he and Xuanyuan mated for the first time. The lake was as quiet as a mirror, and the fireflies that once flew everywhere had disappeared.

The black python slowly swam into the water.

He looked back at Yanhuan and Baidi who were standing on the shore, and said, "You go back first. After I finish shedding my skin, I will go back by myself."

Xuanyuan quickly asked: "How long will it take you to finish shedding your skin?"

"I don't know the specifics. The shortest is one or two days, and the longest may be one or two months."

slowly watched the giant python sink into the water.

It wasn't until the lake gradually became calm and the giant python could no longer be seen that Bai Di said to Xuanyuan: "Go back."

He nodded slowly: "Yes."

The White Emperor turned into a white tiger, bent down, and let the little female climb on his back.

After she sat firmly, he stood up and returned to the rocky mountain along the road.

Slowly looking back at the lake, I prayed silently in my heart, hoping that Sang Ye could finish shedding smoothly and then the family could be reunited.

Shuangyun interrogated Ma Qing for several days and tortured him to death.

He told Bai Di and Xuanyuan the results of the interrogation.

"Ma Qing is the divine attendant of the Dark Moon Temple. He has been following the high priest before and is regarded as the high priest's confidant. However, this guy is very ambitious and always wants to replace the high priest. Unfortunately, although the high priest is old, he has always been in poor health. Yes, there were no signs of death at all, so Ma Qing couldn't wait any longer, so she secretly poisoned the high priest to death and put the blame on Sang Ye."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan immediately became angry: "It turns out that he was the one who made Sang Ye run away with the name of a murderer!"

Bai Di touched her back and said, "Calm down, let Shuang Yun finish his words first."

After slowly calming down, she asked: "Why did Ma Qing frame Sang Ye? Even if he wants to replace the high priest, there should be other scapegoats in the temple, right?"

When most people blame others, they will give priority to those who look easier to bully and control.

No matter how you look at it, Sang Ye doesn't look like this kind of person.

Shuangyun said: "Because Sang Ye is the next candidate designated by the high priest, his status in the Dark Moon Temple is second only to the high priest."

Both Xuanyuan and Baidi were stunned.

They only knew that Sang Ye grew up in the Dark Moon Temple, but they didn't know that he was actually the successor of the high priest.

Xuanyuan felt a chill in his heart: "First he killed the high priest, then framed Sang Ye, and got rid of two competitors at once. Ma Qing's thoughts and methods are indeed very powerful."

Bai Di keenly discovered something was wrong: "If Ma Qing just wanted to get rid of his competitors, he should have achieved his goal when Sang Ye left the Dark Moon Temple. Why did he spend so much money later?" Zhou Zhangdi pursued Sang Ye? He even forced out the strange demon bloodline hidden in Sang Ye's body? "

After listening to his analysis, Xuanyuan also felt that things were not as simple as Ma Qing said.

Bai Di said: "Ma Qing probably only told part of the truth. He also concealed a lot of things."

"I will continue to interrogate him. This guy is very cunning. What he says is a mixture of truth and falsehood. Sometimes he also deliberately says some specious words to confuse the audience." Shuangyun scratched his short silver hair, "By the way, today he He also said something."

Bai Di and Xuanyuan looked at him: "What's the matter?"

"He said that the reason why the high priest designated Sang Ye as his successor was because Sang Ye's father and the high priest had a father-son relationship."

After a while, slowly she understood the relationship. She was surprised: "The high priest is Sang Ye's grandfather?"

"Well, Sang Ye's father was a sinner. He was executed for colluding with strange demons a long time ago. Sang Ye should have been executed, but because of the high priest's strong protection, he was reluctantly spared his life. The high priest was very protective. Sang Ye has always taken him by his side to train him, and even planned to let him inherit the position of high priest. It is because of this that Ma Qing became jealous of Sang Ye and deliberately framed him."

This all sounds logical.

But slowly, something felt wrong.

She couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

She couldn't help but ask: "These things Ma Qing said should be true, right?"

Shuangyun said: "I can't guarantee that other things are true, but Ma Qing shouldn't lie about Sang Ye. After all, Sang Ye is in Rock Mountain. If Ma Qing lies, as soon as Sang Ye comes out, When faced with a confrontation, Ma Qing will reveal his flaws immediately. He is so cunning that he would not be stupid enough to make such a low-level mistake."

Bai Di nodded in agreement.

He said slowly: "Sang Ye was not only framed for killing the high priest, but also for stealing the sacred objects. Could it be that the sacred objects were also stolen by Ma Qing?"

"I have already asked Ma Qing about this matter, and he insisted that he did not know the whereabouts of the sacred object."

"What exactly are the sacred objects of the Dark Moon Temple?"

Shuangyun shook his head: "Ma Qing said that he has never seen the holy object, and he doesn't know what the holy object is. I guess this guy must not be telling the truth."

Bai Di said: "Let's continue the interrogation. It will take a long time anyway, and one day we will be able to find out everything Ma Qing knows."

"Yeah, I know."

"You remember to have Ma Qing locked up and don't let him escape again."

Shuangyun patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, his hands and feet are all broken, he will definitely not be able to escape, and I also asked Jiuyuan to keep an eye on the cell, there will be no mistakes!"

"I hope so."

What Shuangyun didn't expect was that he would be severely slapped in the face by reality the next day.
