"According to what you said, Xue Tianyu is indeed the most suspicious, and he has tested me many times before. Could it be that he also has murderous intentions towards me?" Liang Yan frowned.
"Senior brother, have you ever tested you?" Shui Linglong asked in surprise.
"Not bad!" Liang Yan no longer concealed anything, but told Shui Linglong everything about the past few days. At the end, he added: "If you hadn't arrived in time that day, I'm afraid my trump card would have been
He looked at me a lot."
"I see, I'm going to tell you why you were just sitting on the sidelines that day. But you've only been here for less than two months, so why did Senior Brother Xue attack you?"
Liang Yan shook his head and said: "How do I know this? You have been in the same sect with him for many years. You should know better than me what kind of person this Xue Tianyu is."
Shui Linglong thought carefully after hearing this, and then said: "Senior Brother Xue and I work in Huayu and Tiance Erfeng. Although we have not interacted much in recent years, through some sporadic contacts, I can still roughly describe his character."
She paused as she spoke, then added: "To describe it in eight words, it would be 'a humble gentleman, as gentle as jade'!"
"It seems that you have a high opinion of him!" Liang Yan was silent for a moment and then asked: "What is his origin? Did he join the Yungang Sect halfway like me?"
"That's not the case. Senior Brother Xue was born in a mortal family in the Yue Kingdom. His ancestors have been doing business for generations and have never been a cultivator. Originally, according to the rules of our Yungang Sect for accepting disciples, he could not get a place in the entrance examination at all.
But when Senior Uncle Baimei came down the mountain, he happened to meet Senior Brother Xue and discovered that he was extremely gifted and had excellent spiritual roots, so he made an exception and brought him back to the mountain gate and accepted him as his direct disciple."
"So, Senior Brother Xue has outstanding talents and a clean background. His magical power cultivation ranks first among the Qi Refiners of Yungang Sect, and his character is also a humble gentleman. How could such a perfect person wantonly massacre his fellow sect members?"
Liang Yan said in confusion.
"I don't know about that either." Shui Linglong said with a confused look on her face: "Judging from what he did along the way, the person who committed the crime has a very high level of cultivation, at least not lower than the five Yun Gang disciples. I really can't think of anyone who can compare with him."
He is even more suspicious."
"Maybe there is another possibility!" Liang Yan suddenly said: "The Xue Tianyu at this time is no longer the Senior Brother Xue you knew back then!"
"What? You mean." Shui Linglong's eyes widened.
Liang Yan nodded and said: "If all this is really done by Xue Tianyu, maybe the only possibility is that he will be taken away from him."
Just when Liang Yan and Shui Linglong were tracking down the real culprit, they were far away on the other side of Tianxing Grassland.
This place is already an unknown distance away from the main route. Even a treasure hunter like Ren Dali would not be able to reach this remote place.
The grass is still luxuriant and the sky is blue, but on this endless grassland, there is a towering tree growing very unexpectedly.
Around the big tree, three men were sitting around. These three men were all wearing blue robes, and their looks were surprisingly the same. They were the so-called "Three Brothers of the Chu Family".
The three of them had expressionless faces, and kept making secrets with their hands in front of their chests. From time to time, they punched a spell into the giant tree in the middle. As they punched in the spell, the giant tree was surrounded by green light.
, actually spinning slowly in place!
At this time, one of them suddenly said:
"I have been waiting here to cast spells for several days. Except for a small-scale displacement of the secret realm three days ago, there has been no movement. Now I am very suspicious of the intentions of Gui Jiu!"
"What Gui Jiu calculates will not be wrong. Fellow Taoist Hu Shi needs to be more patient." Another person replied leisurely.
"snort!"
The person who spoke before glanced at him sideways, with a strange smile on his face and said: "Gou Qi, you are the most dishonest here! You accepted the task that day to get the key to open this place. It was obviously limited to four years.
But you spent so much extra time, I think you were not just performing the task, you must have also done extra things besides the task!"
The face of the person he called "Gou Qi" remained unchanged, but his tone was a little colder: "Hu Shi, what do you mean by this?"
Hu Shi looked up to the sky and laughed and said, "Haha, if you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. I heard that you must have a lot of feelings when you saw the tomb of your old friend, right?"
"Hu Shi, you are too lenient!" The person who had been silent among the three suddenly said.
Hu Shi seemed to be quite afraid of this person. He laughed when he heard this, then looked at the sky, and really stopped talking to each other.
At this moment, the towering tree between the three of them, which was originally spinning slowly, suddenly started to spin rapidly on the spot, as if someone had wound it up!
"coming!"
The man who scolded Hu Shi before shouted loudly, with excitement in his tone.
"The two of you are casting spells with all your strength to open this door, right now!"
After hearing this, Tiger Ten and Dog Seven did not dare to neglect. They gathered their minds and cast spells with all their strength towards the big tree in the middle.
As the three people poured in their mana, the big tree spun faster and faster, as if a tornado was hanging on the ground, blowing all the surrounding grass to the ground.
The place where the three people were sitting cross-legged was also affected by the tornado. However, these three people seemed to be nailed to the ground. They were allowed to be hunted by the strong wind and their clothes were flying. However, the three people still sat on the ground with the presence of the old god, and they seemed not to be affected at all.
Click click click!
There was a strange noise, and a small gap suddenly opened in the big tree.
"Gou Qi, give me the key!" The man from before gave the order again.
After Gou Qi received his order, he raised his hand to cast a spell, and saw a dark sealed altar flying out of the storage bag on his waist and falling directly in front of him.
"Stab!" a sound came out.
The mouth of the sealed altar was torn open, and a strong ghost energy emerged from it, rising higher and higher in the air, and finally turned into a towering evil ghost over a hundred feet in size.
This ghost had four heads and eight arms, a mouth with fangs, and three eyes on its head. While it was in mid-air, it had completely covered the sky above the three people, making the place dark.
As soon as it appeared, it roared angrily at Gou Qi, as if it had seen an enemy of life and death. At the same time, it stretched out its giant claws and grabbed Gou Qi head-on.
At this moment, a white beam of light appeared out of thin air, with many strange runes looming on it, and it hit the evil ghost in the back.
Then I saw the evil spirit shrinking at an incredible speed, and in just a blink of an eye, it turned into a black, slippery little devil!
The man who emitted the white light was now stretching out two fingers of his right hand and pointing at the little ghost. The little ghost was enveloped by the white light beam emitted from his fingertips, and actually flew towards the gap in the giant tree in the sky involuntarily.
Halfway through, he bared his teeth and claws and roared at Gou Qi.
"No matter how many times I look at Daoist Fellow Long Wu's Heaven and Earth Creation Finger, I still feel it is mysterious and extraordinary!" Gou Qi sighed softly when he saw it.
As the little devil was sent into the gap in the tree trunk, the cracks in the giant tree quickly closed, then spun on the spot, and suddenly a circle of blue ripples erupted.
"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that the key here would actually wander around and fall into the body of an evil ghost!" The man known as "Long Wu" shook his head slightly, seeming to be a little bit amused.
The next moment, the blue ripples hit, and the figures of the three people were in a trance, and all of them suddenly disappeared!
