"Elder, at that time I took Mr. Ding Huan to look for the Immortal Spirit Spring Eye; it was Steward Cheng Keqi who was in charge," Gu Yuan stated truthfully.
Hearing Gu Yuan's words, Kong Zhangji breathed a sigh of relief.
Apparently, Gu Yuan had not yet realized the seriousness of the issue. As long as someone took the blame, all would be fine.
"Why didn't you take Mr. Ding Huan to the Array Protection Hall, but instead took him to search for the Immortal Spirit Spring Eye?" Meng Zhongqi looked indifferently at Kong Zhangji before querying Gu Yuan.
Elder Kong shuddered; he suspected that the Sect Master already knew.
Gu Yuan hastily replied, "I made a mistake at that time, and by the time I remembered, I was already out on other business and only recently returned to the Immortal Sect."
"Bring Cheng Keqi, Mi Zhidi, and all related personnel here," ordered Meng Zhongqi, who had a deep memory of these two individuals.
