There was a lot of discussion in the Qingyun Sect, everyone was discussing the signal that a foreign enemy had invaded just now, and they were all speculating about who had bullied the sect. Many timid disciples were avoiding and did not dare to go out, and there were also many bold ones.
The disciples went out to investigate the news and started discussing in groups.
However, several groups of patrolling disciples soon dispersed them and warned them not to talk nonsense, otherwise they would be punished according to the sect's rules! However, Qingyun Sect has obviously increased the intensity of patrols. Usually, there are patrols once an hour, but now there are three different pairs of disciples in an hour.
The patrol group passed by.
Many disciples flew towards the top and bottom of Qingmu Peak, where the signal was sent, and they all took out their weapons and got ready for battle.
Seeing many disciples flying towards this side, the sect leader waved his hand and said to the two elders beside him: "Let them all go back. This matter is just a misunderstanding. It is strictly forbidden for anyone to exaggerate this matter. Violators will be punished according to the sect rules!"
"Elders, please step aside. Several fellow Taoists are here as guests. There must be some misunderstandings. Fellow Taoist Qingniu, we haven't seen each other for decades. Come and be safe. Come to my sect and let me play the role of landlord."
How is our friendship?" Liu Xie said to the young man.
"Okay, is it a misunderstanding? We will find out after we find out the matter!" The young man said with a serious face.
Over the years, many disciples of the Qingyun Sect have hunted and killed many spiritual beasts in order to improve their cultivation or to go deep into the mountains to collect elixirs. However, due to the strength of the Qingyun Sect, they have to tolerate everything, and now they are bullying
On the heads of the third-grade spirit beasts, they finally broke out, and more than a dozen spirit beasts of the Golden Core stage and above came together to seek justice.
The green bull was a fourth-grade junior spirit beast that was brought out from the mountains more than a thousand miles away. Its strength was comparable to that of the sect master Liu Xie. After hearing about the great ape, he was very angry and brought all the beasts here.
, so they dare to come to Qingyun Sect to seek justice!
"But, my brother, my men saw with their own eyes that they were asking for it from the Qingyun Sect. What can they say? If they don't hand over the murderer, even if it means death, I will avenge my brother!" The big ape was angry.
said.
"Brother Yuan, it seems that even their sect leader doesn't know what happened now. It's better to wait until they investigate clearly."
"Liu Daoyou, how about we stay here for three days. After three days, you have to give us an explanation, otherwise I can't control our brothers!" The young strong man said to Liu Xie. He has endured it for the past few years.
Enough.
"Okay, whether it is yes or no, we will give Qingniu Dao an answer in three days, how about it!" Liu Xie said with a smile on his face.
"Humph, I hope so!" the young strong man said with a cold snort.
"Sect Master, why do we have to swallow our anger so much? Can a low-level spiritual beast come to our Qingyun Sect and cause mischief?"
"Perhaps it's their scholars who are the ones who slander us! They hurt our disciples first, and they are still trying to compromise like this. Wouldn't our Qingyun Sect become a soft persimmon that can even be kneaded by beasts?" The sect leader left one person behind him.
The red monk said that this man's clothes were obviously different from those of other monks.
In the Qingyun Sect, all disciples are uniformly dressed in blue, with the exception of a few special disciples. These red-clothed disciples are unique to the Chuan Gong Hall and the elders who protect the sect. They can be said to be law enforcers independent of the sect master.
Those who are elders who protect the sect under the personal guidance of each supreme sect leader are not under the jurisdiction of the sect leader and have the right to act independently.
However, the final decision of the Qingyun Sect is still made by the sect leader, and they are not allowed to interfere. If the sect leader's decision is against the fundamental interests of the sect, they have the right not to implement or veto the decision of the sect leader!
As the elders protecting the sect, they have the right to demand the sect master to resist the foreign invaders at all costs when invaded by foreign enemies. Therefore, their status in Qingyun Sect is extremely high, almost as high as the sect master.
"Old man, be careful what you say. If you say something to us that is insulting to our spiritual beasts, I will destroy you even if it is your sect master again today!" The strong green bull man looked back at the red monk, with eyes in his eyes.
The cold light flickered, carrying a strong murderous intent.
"How dare you!" the red-clothed monk said angrily. As a golden elixir Dzogchen monk, he said with an angry face when Qingniu said that.
It can be said that in addition to the Supreme Sect Leader, even the Supreme Elder will treat him with courtesy. Although this person speaks upright, he is never vague about the interests of the sect.
"Haha, Elder Zhu, please calm down. We had an agreement at the beginning. If this matter has nothing to do with our Qingyun Sect, Brother Qingniu must also have an explanation for my injured disciple." Liu Xie listened to Qingniu's threat to protect him.
The words of the sect elder also gave rise to a chill in his heart. It was very embarrassing for him to think about deposing the sect protector elder in front of him, not to mention that he was still the leader of a sect. A chill flashed through his eyes. After all, the sect leader for so many years,
There are still some snack machines like this.
"Elder Wang, where is Elder Wu!" Sect Leader Liu Xie shouted.
"Here!" Elder Wang, the master of Cyanwood Peak, and the fifth elder who protects the peak said in unison.
"Go and check to see if any disciples have recently received tasks related to entering this mountain range. In addition, the other sect masters will strictly check whether the disciples of each mountain peak have recently entered the mountain range!" the sect leader ordered.
"Huh, how do I know if you are harboring the murderer? Even if I am caught, what will happen if you don't hand him over?" The big ape on the side said with some dissatisfaction.
"Oh. So what does Brother Yu think?" Sect leader Liu Xie turned around and asked, his tone no longer as polite as before.
"Some of my men will be involved in the rigorous investigation. No matter how deep the murderer hides, my men will be able to find him, because he not only killed my brother, but also took away the elixir he collected on my territory.
My men can still distinguish the scent of those elixirs!" the big ape said.
"Okay, just do as it says!" the sect leader said, looking at the other peak masters.
"Hmph, the key point is to keep an eye on the disciples who are above the Foundation Establishment stage. Also, pay attention to whether there is a spiritual tiger with wings here. I will keep your eyes open and don't let go of any evidence!" The big ape said to him.
His subordinates ordered that in his opinion, no matter how powerful the weapons given to him by a disciple who was still in the Qi training stage, he could never defeat his two mid-level second-grade spirit beasts.
He dared to conclude that he was definitely not a monk at the Golden Core stage, so the only possibility was that he was a disciple at the Foundation Establishment stage!
…
Suddenly, Qingyun Sect blocked all entrances and exits to and from the sect, and the original three patrols a day to protect the sect became six.
At every entrance and exit, there were several foundation-building stages and a low-level spirit beast standing, constantly checking the disciples who had just returned from outside. This made the atmosphere in Qingyun Sect become a little tense.
Many disciples were afraid to go out to do tasks anymore and were waiting to be questioned by the investigators within the sect. Five brigades were sent to each mountain peak and divided into more than a dozen small teams for investigation.
Naturally, the Spiritual Medicine Villa where Lu Ming was located was no exception. However, it was not under the jurisdiction of any mountain peak. It was under the direct jurisdiction of the sect master. Unless the disciples personally designated by the sect master came, Lu Ming could ignore it.
But the next day, a group of monks came outside the Spiritual Medicine Garden, but were blocked by the ban imposed by Elder Huang. The Spiritual Medicine Garden is an important place of the Qingyun Sect and can be said to be one of its secret locations and is closely protected.
object.
Therefore, even the disciples personally appointed by the sect master would not dare to show any disrespect to the guardians of the elixir garden.
Lu Ming happily put away the elixirs he snatched yesterday, without daring to look at them carefully, and kept them all in the storage bag. He had not managed the elixir garden for a month and a half, and many elixirs were languishing due to lack of care, and some were already a little...
Withered and yellowed.
He was really tired these days. He had just made a breakthrough and had a battle with a red-feathered bird and two mid-level second-grade spirit beasts. So last night he started practicing under the moonlight again. Overnight, those sluggish elixirs recovered a lot.
, Lu Ming also recovered a lot of energy.
"Huh!" Just when the moon set and the sun rose, Lu Ming exhaled a breath, stretched and stood up, with the corners of his mouth raised. He didn't know what was going on in the Qingyun Sect now. Not long after he entered the restricted area, he
I heard the sound of the big ape making a fuss about the Qingyun Sect.
"Is Elder Huang here?" While Lu Ming was thinking wildly, a voice interrupted his thoughts.
"Hey, are you finally here?" A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, hiding his cultivation to the fifth level of Qi training, and preparing to deal with the coming one!
