When the stone gate of the prison fell, Xu Taiping's vision went dark, and no sound could be heard around him.
Xu Taiping relied on his spiritual sense to walk step by step to the cold stone bed in the stone prison, and then sat down cross-legged without saying a word.
However, Xu Taiping, who seemed silent on the surface, was actually communicating with Fairy Lingyue.
After Xu Taiping sat down, Fairy Lingyue immediately asked Xu Taiping again
"You were put in a cell?"
Xu Taiping replied calmly through the voice transmission
"Um."
After Xu Taiping sensed the environment of the cell with his soul, he continued to transmit a message to Fairy Lingyue.
"This stone prison should be carved directly into the mountain. The surrounding walls are covered with runes. There should be only one way to get in or out."
"That is to say, any monk who enters this passage next may be Su Chan or one of his men."
Fairy Lingyue responded immediately
"Don't worry, I have arranged for Bai Yu to keep an eye on the peak closest to Zhenyun Peak. He will take note of everyone who approaches that entrance."
When Xu Taiping heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He is about to face an unusual assassination that is most likely planned by Su Chan. Don't be nervous, it's just a lie.
However, although he knew about the assassination in advance through Lian Tong, he was still a little confused as to Su Chan's motive for first putting the blame on him and then assassinating him in prison.
There are some things I want to confirm with Fairy Lingyue.
So he immediately confirmed to Fairy Lingyue
"Sister Lingyue, I have been imprisoned in this prison for almost two hours. Is there any movement outside now?"
But this time, Fairy Lingyue did not reply to Xu Taiping immediately, as if she was busy with something.
Xu Taiping was not in a hurry, but sat quietly in the stone prison and waited.
After about a stick of incense, as Xu Taiping sat quietly on the stone bed, the voice of Fairy Lingyue finally came to his mind——
"Taiping, people from Jiufu just came to search. I took Ping An and changed his residence."
When Xu Taiping heard this, he immediately sent a message and asked:
"Sister Lingyue, are you and Ping An okay?"
Fairy Lingyue replied
"It's nothing serious, but an elder from the Jiufu seems to have grasped the true meaning of catching winds and shadows. Ping An and I were almost discovered by them."
When Xu Taiping heard this, he was a little confused and said
"With this magical power, will they find the hiding place of Elder Chu Qiuya?"
The fact that Chu Qiuya was rescued by them must not be exposed now, otherwise it will definitely arouse Su Chan and the others' vigilance.
Fairy Lingyue replied
"Don't worry, that elder is not cultivated enough. Once he leaves for more than an hour, he will be nowhere to be found."
Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
He remembered clearly that Chu Qiuya was assassinated that day, and it was not until the next day that people from Jiufu discovered it.
At this time, Fairy Lingyue continued to say to Xu Taiping with a hint of joy in her tone.
"Although Ping An and I were almost discovered by people from Jiufu, we found out something interesting while we were looking for a new residence."
"This incident should be able to explain why Su Chan first put the blame on you and then killed you in prison."
Xu Taiping asked curiously
"What's the matter?"
Fairy Lingyue replied
"The fact that you were imprisoned by Jiufu and sent to Zhenyunfeng Prison has been spread in Liuxian Town."
Xu Taiping was a little surprised and said
"Who spread the news?"
Fairy Lingyue replied
"It's definitely not Jiufu."
In order to prevent the news from leaking out, when the Nine Palaces were interrogating Xu Tai, the palace leader Liu Chuxuan only arranged for a few trusted elders, and even his right-hand general Huangque was not informed.
It can be seen that at least Jiufu is unwilling to release this news.
Xu Taiping said with a sharp look in his eyes
"Then it can only be him."
The person Xu Taiping mentioned was naturally Su Chan.
Xu Taiping immediately asked Fairy Lingyue again
"After the news spread, how did all parties react?"
Fairy Lingyue asked with a smile
"Taiping, you want to ask about the reactions of the casual cultivators and the disciples of the sect, right?"
Without waiting for Xu Tianping to answer, Fairy Lingyue continued.
"Right now, whether it's in the competition between swordsmen in the spirit mirror or in the restaurants and teahouses in Liuxian Town, casual cultivators and the disciples of the sect's aristocratic families are all quarreling with each other."
"The casual cultivators scolded Jiufu for being shameless, saying that they blamed Chu Qiuya's death on you because your performance in the Wenjian competition was better than that of the sect monks. In order to suppress the casual cultivators, they blamed you for Chu Qiuya's death."
"But the monks from the sect family are scolding you as an ungrateful person. Chu Qiuya clearly gave you guidance in front of the Golden Palace, but you abandoned your righteousness and sought wealth and life. Then, you started to scold all the casual cultivators as ungrateful people.
He even asked the Jiufu to remove the casual cultivators from the Jiankui Association."
"Bai Yu even saw a fight between casual cultivators and sect cultivators in a restaurant."
After hearing what Fairy Lingyue said, Xu Taiping, who was still a little confused about Su Chan's motive of first putting the blame on him and then killing him in prison, suddenly understood in his heart——
"Putting blame on me for assassinating Elder Chu Qiuya."
"And make it known to the public that I was imprisoned by the Jiufu."
"This is the first spark between their Zhenwutian casual cultivators and the monks from the sect's aristocratic family."
"Next, after I am assassinated in prison, the true cause of Elder Chu Qiuya's death will be made public."
"Let the casual cultivators discover that I was actually framed by the Jiufu."
"At that time, the casual cultivators who have been carried away by anger will not care about the truth that I died in prison, and will only continue to vent their anger to Jiufu and other disciples of the sect."
"And this is the second fire he lit between Zhenwutian casual cultivators and the sect's aristocratic cultivators."
"After these two fires have passed, the conflict between Zhenwu Tian's casual cultivators and the sect's aristocratic cultivators will be unavoidable."
"At that time, the Jiangui Association will be in chaos, and Zhenwutian will be in chaos!"
The more Xu Taiping thought about it, the more frightened he became.
spirit
Moon Fairy also sent a message at this time:
"Now it seems that the reason why they did not implement the plan immediately after killing Elder Chu Qiuya."
"Actually, I'm just waiting for a casual cultivator to stand out in the Sword Leader Association, and then put the blame on him."
"So this person, if not you, is most likely Bai Di from Liliu Village."
Xu Taiping asked curiously
"Why didn't they choose Cui Tiegu?"
Fairy Lingyue replied
"They can't choose Cui Tiegu because he is too powerful and the risk of blaming him is too high."
Xu Taiping nodded secretly.
After a moment of silence, Fairy Lingyue suddenly said, "There is another thing. I wonder if I should tell you now?"
Xu Taiping said curiously
"Sister Lingyue, you just say it's okay."
Fairy Lingyue said
"When we were inquiring about the information, we found that your name seems to be still in the final question of swordsmanship ten days later."
Xu Taiping asked in confusion
"Isn't my sword quest over?"
Fairy Lingyue smiled and said
"It's your name Xu Taiping."
When Xu Taiping heard this, his heart trembled immediately, and then he said with warmth in his heart, "Maybe the leader and the others thought of a way to add me in."
In fact, just as Xu Taiping guessed, the head Zhao Qian not only asked Jiufu to give him an exception, but also arranged his competition to be the last one, just so that he could participate in the Zhenwu Jiankui when he came back.
meeting.
"Rumble!..."
At this moment, there was a sound of the machine's expansion chain being pulled, breaking the tranquility of the stone room.
Xu Taiping's heart immediately trembled, and he sent a message to Fairy Lingyue, "Sister Lingyue, someone is coming."
Immediately Fairy Lingyue nervously sent a message to Xu Taiping, "Prepare to pull out the needle, and then act according to Liantong's deduction!"
Fairy Lingyue immediately added
"Su Chan is no ordinary opponent, Taiping, you must be extremely careful!"
