Chapter 115 The Tattered and Red Yanzi
Even though she didn't want to believe it, Lingxiang had no choice but to believe it since the senior brothers said so.
"He...his cause of death was..."
Master Fuyin sighed: "Just like the outer disciple last time, he was hit in the back and died in one blow, killed by the devil's blade..."
"What!" Lingxiang was shocked, "You haven't found the real culprit yet?"
After asking this question, the elders were embarrassed. Zhenren Qianyuan couldn't help but said, "I was busy with the Xuancang Cave a few days ago, so this matter was delayed. The head brother also tried to divine, but he couldn't get any clues from the hexagram. Since the demons are involved, it won't be easy to calculate."
"Yes," Master Chengxin also spoke up at this time, "We have arranged for a group of disciples to intensify patrols these days in order to catch the real culprit, but who would have thought that even so, someone still succeeded. It seems that there must be someone from the demon clan behind this."
What the two senior brothers said is indeed true. I think the demon must have had a plan in mind to avoid the inspection.
"Could it be..." Lingxiang said after careful consideration: "Could it be related to Bai Wuchang..."
The elders' faces sternened when they heard this. Since the White-Faced Shura appeared in the last martial arts performance, they have not taken any action. Instead, two murders have occurred among the outer disciples, and both were caused by the magic blade. People had to connect him to this matter.
"I think it has nothing to do with him." Master Donghui pondered, "Based on Bai Wuchang's personality, although he is meticulous, he is extremely arrogant. He will definitely not interfere in the affairs of the outer disciples. Even if he wants to take action, he should start with us brothers."
Upon hearing this, Master Qianyuan stroked his beard and said, "Brother Donghui, what you said is indeed true."
"Arrogant? I don't agree with what Fourth Senior Brother said." Lingxiang said as she stepped down from the Hunyuan Stage. "If he was arrogant, why would he be like that during the second martial arts performance? People say he is meticulous, but who knows if he is trying to cover up his tracks with other moves?"
Shangqing Zhenren opened his eyes at this time and stared at the Hunyuan Instrument without moving. However, there was no sign of anything happening on the Hunyuan Instrument, which really made him a little confused.
After all, it was because my cultivation was not advanced enough. If it were in the past, my master would have been able to find some clues from the details.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "What Lingxiang said makes sense. The fellow apprentices also know about Baimian Shura. Since they met last time, I think he is planning something. If this matter is really related to him, I'm afraid there are other plans, so we have to be on guard."
"Master Brother, what you mean is..." asked Zhenren Qianyuan.
Shangqing Zhenren was silent for a moment before he replied, "What happened fourteen years ago was planned by him for the Demon Lord. This man is full of tricks and it is difficult to figure out his intentions. Now that something like this has happened, in order to avoid a repeat of the same mistake, the sect has to be on high alert."
"Brother, wait a minute..." Master Fuyin suddenly said, "I think it's not a good idea to alert the enemy for now. Regardless of whether this matter is related to him, it is certain that there is a traitor in the sect. Even if we are on high alert, if the traitor is not eliminated, we will eventually fail."
"Hmm..." Shangqing Zhenren murmured, "Brother Fuyin, what you said makes sense... In your opinion, how should we lure out this traitor?"
"This..." Master Fuyin pinched his chin and lowered his eyebrows, "There is no good way for the time being..."
Just when everyone was at a loss, Han Yang walked in from outside the hall and saluted towards Hunyuantai.
"Master, a wandering Taoist has come down the mountain and said he has something important to discuss with you."
Wandering Taoist? This is strange. What could a Wandering Taoist do in Yuanqing Sect?
"Is there a report number?" asked Zhenren Qianyuan.
Han Yang hurriedly replied: "It was my disciple's negligence. The person who came said that his Taoist name was Chi Yanzi."
"Senior Chi Yanzi?" Lingxiang was very surprised, and the elders were also very surprised. This Chi Yanzi said that he had no relationship with Yuanqing Sect, but he had a very close relationship with Fairy Tu Mi. However, he had never set foot in Yuanqing, so why would he come to visit now?
"Junior sister, do you recognize this Chi Yanzi?" Zhenren Donghui heard something unusual in Lingxiang's words.
"We can be considered to have shared hardships..." Lingxiang said, telling about her journey with Chi Yanzi after going to the Supreme Sect.
Upon hearing this, Master Fuyin suddenly asked, "When you were at Youran Residence earlier, you only said that you were saved by a master. Is this master Chi Yanzi?"
Lingxiang nodded and said yes. Seeing this, the elders all sighed in their hearts - this must be fate...
"Since Taoist Chi Yanzi is here to visit, why don't you go and meet him and find out what he's here for." Taoist Shangqing instructed Taoist Qianyuan.
Upon hearing this, Lingxiang hurriedly wanted to go along. Shangqing Zhenren thought that after all, his junior sister had received a favor from someone, so she should go and thank him. So he gave her a few instructions and granted her request.
……
Chi Yanzi sat in the hall in ragged clothes, attracting the attention of the disciples outside the hall. These disciples were also very curious, as he was clearly a serious cultivator, so how could he end up in such a situation?
The palace gate was surrounded by crowds of people, and as the disciples scrambled to watch, they suddenly heard a burst of scolding.
"Surrounded like this, don't you all have anything to do? How can this be a disgrace to disciples of a great sect!"
It was none other than the eldest disciple of Taoist Master Qianyuan, whose Taoist name was Shouqi.
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly dispersed to the side, made way for the door, and stood with their hands lowered, performing a salute.
"What are you still standing there for? Have you finished your homework? Have you swept the house?" Shou Yu saw that everyone was standing there and refused to leave, so he started to shout again.
All the disciples hurriedly ran away like monkeys. Shouxuan bowed to Zhenren Qianyuan and Lingxiang and invited them in.
As Lingxiang walked by, she patted Shoutao on the shoulder and teased, "Shoutao is becoming more and more like a disciple of a big sect. It seems that Second Senior Brother has taught well, and there is hope for his successor!"
Shouqi smiled awkwardly and bowed when he heard this: "Little nun, please don't make fun of me. Come with master to meet the guests." Then he extended his hand to invite him in.
Lingxiang walked into the hall laughing, but stopped laughing when she saw the people in the hall.
This……
Senior Chi Yanzi's appearance is also somewhat...
It's horrible...
“Senior Chi Yanzi… have you… caused trouble for Xianrenyi? Why… why are you in such a mess…”
Upon hearing this, Qian Yuan Zhenren quickly scolded Ling Xiang for being unruly, and then turned to apologize to Chi Yanzi, saying that Ling Xiang was young and so on. But Chi Yanzi laughed and said it was okay.
"Friend Lingxiang, it's been a long time since we last met. You are still so outspoken."
Lingxiang scratched her head and laughed, "No, no, it's because the seniors spoil the juniors that they allow me to act like this."
"Come to think of it, you can't call me senior anymore." Chi Yanzi and Zhenren Qianyuan saluted each other and then said with a smile.
Lingxiang was puzzled when she heard this. What else could he be called if not senior?
Seeing her like this, Chi Yanzi and Qian Yuan Zhenren looked at each other, and then Qian Yuan Zhenren smiled and said:
"According to seniority, you should call him Senior Brother. His master is your mother, Fairy Tumi."
"What!?"
