After counting the spoils, Xu Chenglin's expression remained unchanged, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He hurriedly said goodbye to a few acquaintances, and Xu Chenglin returned to his residence at Bailian Peak without stopping for a moment. The high intensity of the past few days

The fierce fighting and vigilance consumed his spirit greatly, and he felt exhausted instantly after he relaxed.

He urgently needed to put everything aside, take a good rest, and digest the gains and losses of this time. However, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind was not stopping. Not long after he returned to his residence, a conspiracy against him quietly unfolded.

As the people who participated in the Dual Power Competition returned, various related news came out. There were the appearance of floating islands, the raging of unknown black monsters, and stories of treasure hunting experiences in secret realms. The news was mixed.

And enough. One of the pieces of news is particularly eye-catching. Xu Chenglin, a disciple of Bailian Peak in Jiuhua Academy, went crazy somewhere in the forest where the trial took place and injured several of his fellow disciples.

He brushed his clothes and left.

Although this news was mentioned in one sentence, the information revealed in it is extremely detailed. There are names, surnames, places and times, events and results. No one knows whether the news is true or false, but whether it is true or false, there is

This piece of news is enough. No one who participated in the dual-power competition came forward to confirm whether the news was true or false.

Some people believe the news, some don't believe it, and some are skeptical. But for some reason, more and more people believe the news. As if someone is adding fuel to the fire, the news is getting more and more attention, and gradually

Some other news was actually covered up. Xu Chenglin's name and deeds in the secret realm gradually spread throughout the sect.

The most taboo thing among sects is for disciples to betray the sect, and the second most taboo is for brothers to fight against each other. The content of the news clearly implies that brothers and sisters are fighting against each other. This news, together with other news, has swept the entire Jiuhua Academy. People are sighing and admiring the return.

When looking at someone, they couldn't help but curse the person in the same room. At the same time, everyone was also wondering why the sect didn't deal with this person after so long.

Xiao Yu was walking on the way to Chuandao Peak, and her mind was slightly confused. Whenever she thought about the news about Xu Chenglin, she would feel a little incredible. She thought about going to Xu Chenglin directly for verification, but she felt that this seemed inappropriate.

Correct. Today she came to Preaching Peak to have a better way to confirm the authenticity of the news.

There is a master's hall on the Chuandao Peak, so the guards on this mountain are relatively tight. Anyone who enters or exits the Chuandao Peak must actually show his identity jade tag for inspection. What is surprising is that Xiao Yu was not subject to any investigation along the way.

.

These patrolling disciples did not try to stop her at all, but instead smiled and nodded at her. When Xiao Yu saw these patrolling disciples, he paused for a moment, and then forced a smile. Judging from their silent exchanges, it seemed that they were all communicating with each other.

They are familiar. Xiao Yu is a monk from Shennong Peak, and the patrolling disciple is from Chuandao Peak. Although the disciples from the two peaks belong to the same sect, it is a bit strange to be so familiar with each other.

Before entering the main hall, Xiao Yu greeted the gatekeeper disciples very familiarly, and then she walked in calmly. Several gatekeeper disciples looked at each other, and they all revealed a helpless smile.

Walking into the main hall, Xiao Yu saw the back of a middle-aged man. Although the middle-aged man had his back to the door, he knew the identity of the person coming. He sighed slightly and shook his head gently.

He shook his head. He turned around and looked at Xiao Yu not far away with a smile.

"Here you are? I haven't come for so long, I thought you didn't recognize me!"

The kind yet majestic voice sounded in the main hall, and Xiao Yu couldn't help but blush when she heard it.

"I don't want to make myself too special."

Xiao Yu's voice was very low, and her defense seemed so feeble.

Seeing Xiao Yu's appearance, the head Xiao Ziyue helplessly raised his forehead.

"What does it mean to be special? If it were anyone else, you wouldn't have such a background. But you are really special, always avoiding me. Doesn't it mean that if you avoid me, you are not my daughter?"

"I didn't mean that, I was just afraid that my friends would mind my identity..."

Xiao Yu's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally became silent.

"I really don't know what you are thinking. Will a true friend mind your identity? If you keep secretive like this, one day you won't be exposed? No matter how you hide your identity, you are still the daughter of the leader."

Xiao Ziyue was very speechless towards this daughter. It was obvious that talking to others was not a problem. However, whenever he saw himself, he would become coy. He really loved and hated this girl. He had grown up since childhood.

, he never beat her or scolded her, he just obeyed her obediently. But the result was like this, she was obviously a girl from her own family, but she was afraid of her father.

"I won't tell you this! I'm just asking you whether the news that Xu Chenglin's roommates are fighting is true or false?"

Xiao Yu avoided his topic and carefully asked questions about Xu Chenglin.

"If I didn't tell you, I would have forgotten! I didn't expect that there are people on Lingxiao Peak who are now using these methods. It's such a cruel method to attack people with bad intentions. The sword of the sect shouldn't be like this. It's time to sort it out."

Xiao Ziyue did not answer Xiao Yu's question directly, but said something specious.

"It's not true anymore! No, I have to contact Wang Shusheng immediately. It's not easy for Junior Brother Xu to practice cultivation, so we can't let this matter affect his state of mind."

Xiao Yu's face was first filled with joy and then shock, and her expression changed very wonderfully. As she spoke, she turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Things are not as simple as you think. Don't spread the word. The fewer people know about it, the better. Remember to visit me often!"

Hearing these words, Xiao Yu paused. She slowly turned around and bowed to Xiao Ziyue Yingying.

"Thank you father for informing me. I apologize for not being able to spend more time with my daughter because she has something important to do!"

After finishing the conversation with a blushing face, Xiao Yu ran out of the main hall.

Looking at Xiao Yu running away, Xiao Ziyue looked helpless. He sighed, and then thought of something again, with a slight anger on his face.

"I really don't understand what this girl is thinking. There are so many young talents in the sect, why does she have a crush on that stupid goose? What's so good about that guy? His appearance is not good, and his cultivation is only

To be able to reach the middle and upper reaches, even though she is a disciple of Danchen Peak, she has become a monk halfway. Forget it! Let her leave it. Anyway, it is just a good impression, we will talk about it when the time comes!"

Xiao Yu left in a hurry and saw that the direction he was heading was the location of Bailian Peak. At the same time, Wang Shusheng, who received Xiao Yu's message, also headed there. Just when the two met to go, Xu Chenglin

As if he sensed it, the door that had been closed for many days quietly opened. He stretched out, walked out of his small courtyard, and walked towards Bailian Hall. But what he didn't know was that a storm was about to hit him.

swept into it.

As they walked along, Xu Chenglin felt extremely strange. The Bailianfeng disciples who greeted him warmly in the past were all a little cold to him today, and looked at him with a somewhat unclear meaning. Still confused, Xu Chenglin didn't pay attention.

I almost hit someone.

Xu Chenglin was startled and hurriedly smiled apologetically at the man. He raised his head and looked at the person, and Xu Chenglin immediately recognized that this was Bronze who had not seen him for many days. Seeing Bronze's expression full of vitality, and his body exuding a breath of fresh air.

With a touch of pressure, Xu Chenglin already understood that the other party must have succeeded in condensing Qi.

Just when Xu Chenglin didn't know how to call him, Gu Tong's face was full of sternness.

He spoke solemnly first.

"Junior Brother Xu, there are rumors outside that you have attacked one of our own people, but I don't believe it. However, I want to hear from Junior Brother himself whether it is true or not?"

Xu Chenglin was slightly stunned by Gu Tong's question. He didn't understand what Gu Tong meant. In doubt, Xu Chenglin inadvertently saw the expressions of the people around him. The expressions of these people were similar to the expressions of his classmates outside the secret realm.

It was exactly the same. Indifference, suspicion, ridicule, and heart-wrenching expressions were all familiar to him.

Thinking of what happened outside the secret realm, Xu Chenglin seemed to suddenly realize. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and a solemn expression appeared on his face. When he was about to answer, two voices came first.

"I guarantee my character that Junior Brother Xu will never do this!"

"That news is definitely a rumor!"

Two voices sounded at the bottom of the mountain almost at the same time, one was the voice of a young man, and the other was the voice of an elite woman. The owners of the voices couldn't help but look at each other, and all they saw was the smile on each other's faces. The two nodded lightly.

, walked together along the steps towards the mountain.

Listening to the voice, Xu Chenglin already knew who the person was. He looked up at the sky and saw that although there were dark clouds in the sky, there was light shining through the darkness. Taking a deep breath, Xu Chenglin gently closed his eyes.

.When he opened his eyes, there was a smile on his face.

"I've never done this!"

Xu Chenglin didn't explain too much, he just spat out these few words gently. Some things don't need too much explanation. Belief is just belief. No matter how much you don't believe, it won't matter.

"Okay! That's it, if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. I've written this down, and I will definitely vent my anger on you if I find the culprit!"

Patting Xu Chenglin's shoulder hard, Bronze breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, this happened out of the blue, someone must be targeting Junior Brother Xu!"

Walking closer, Wang Shusheng also nodded and spoke.

"My little brother is about to break through the training period. Someone is trying to ruin your mood and make you fail to break through!"

Xiao Yu's voice was very low, and only Xu Chenglin and three other people nearby could hear her clearly. Although her voice was low, her words were conclusive.

Gu Tong and Wang Shusheng suddenly turned their heads to look at Xiao Yu, as if they wanted to ask why the other party thought so. Xiao Yu did not answer, just pursed his lips slightly and nodded with certainty. The two did not ask the source of the information again, but

Judging from her confirmation look, I guess it's not fake.

"Hahahahaha..."

Xu Chenglin laughed suddenly, then he stopped laughing, and his aura condensed into a bunch of energy that shot straight into the sky. The dark clouds hundreds of feet high in the sky were naturally not affected by Xu Chenglin's aura. But for some reason, the dark clouds began to gradually dissipate.

In just a moment, Xu Chenglin returned to his usual state of mind, and he made a funny sarcastic comment.

"Ha, that's it! It seems that I have become a thorn in the eyes of some people. If I fail to condense my energy, wouldn't it be a joke to others!"

"It's good for you and I to know this news. Some things need to be kept secret. The biggest thing for me right now is to prepare for condensation. We'll talk about the rest later."

Looking at Xu Chenglin's appearance, Xiao Yu tried to persuade him with some worry.

"What the senior sister said is that the rest of the things are not important now. Cheng Lin is deeply grateful for your thoughts. Preparing for the breakthrough of Qi Condensation is the most important thing now. I forgive me for not asking you to sit down!"

Stopping Xiao Yu who wanted to say something more, Wang Shusheng expressed his position on behalf of the three of them.

"Brother, if you have something important to do, just go and do it! How many of us still need you to be polite?"

Xu Chenglin nodded heavily, hugged the three of them, then turned around and walked down the mountain with a smile.
Chapter completed!
