There were guards on the left and right sides screaming in alarm, which immediately attracted the attention of all the guards around the well. The guard named Chen Sheng turned around and ran out.
A burst of energy rushed over, smashing the black pill that Chen Sheng popped up in the air just as it was about to fall into the well.
The second wave of Qi Jin followed closely, wrapping the crushed pills together with strong force, turning into a beam of white light and shooting towards the mountain wall dozens of meters away, exploding a cloud of stone debris.
"Can you leave?"
Almost at the same time, the powerful master roared loudly. He was still nearly a hundred meters away from Chen Sheng. He stretched out his hand and drew his sword. The sword swung out with a dazzling white light. It was only three feet long, but it seemed to be condensed.
The sword in the world is as sharp as ever.
Chen Sheng's back felt cold. He was afraid that turning around would waste time, so he hurriedly moved to the left. However, the sword energy closely followed his energy and actually moved to the left, and the distance between the two sides was instantly shortened.
At the critical moment, Chen Sheng roared, and under the threat of the dense sword energy, he used his skills to the limit, turned around and slashed with his sword, trying to resist part of the force.
Boom!
The shock in the sky made Chen Sheng's body surface make a stabbing sound. A string of blood flowers represented a bunch of sword energy. In a moment, dozens of blood holes were punched out of his body by the sword energy, like a sieve.
Lian Yi and Ye Jingtang watched in the dark with chills running down their spines.
The person they recognized was the sword elder of Jianhai Palace. It is said that including the forty-three super masters in the world, his strength can be ranked in the top three hundred. He is also one of the strongest among the holy land warriors on the surface.
, we can see how high the martial arts is.
If it were Lian Yi and Ye Jingtang, the end would probably not be much better than Chen Sheng.
While Elder Sword was chasing Chen Sheng, the two of them looked at each other, held their breath, and carefully escaped. When they were far enough away, they ran wildly, as if there was a big tiger chasing behind them.
Since Chen Sheng could not escape too far, the guards around the well all retreated to the well to avoid another incident. Some even picked up a handful of water from the distance and introduced it into the porcelain bowl next to the well, as if they wanted to test it.
In the previous arrangement, the reason why the guards did not gather around the well was actually for the safety of the water. If there was a traitor in the middle who wanted to poison the well, he would not be able to stop him if he was too close.
Therefore, the guards were asked to stand a little further away, so that they could not only guard against foreign enemies, but also supervise each other.
But who knows, something went wrong. Fortunately, Elder Jian took action in time and prevented Chen Sheng from succeeding. However, necessary inspections are still indispensable.
The sword elder over there was about to capture Chen Sheng alive. Chen Sheng laughed ferociously. Before the former could get closer, he cut off his heart pulse with a bang and fell to the ground to die. He still had a strange smile on his face when he died.
It seems like regret and resentment.
After checking Chen Sheng's vitality and confirming that he was dead, Elder Jian hummed, tiptoed, and floated to the well, asking: "How is the situation?"
One person replied: "We have sent someone to ask Elder Bao of Tiandu Sect, and we will have the results later."
The water well was a top priority, and Chen Sheng's poisoning immediately alarmed the representatives from each of the Twelve Holy Lands who had stayed here, and they gathered around the well.
Elder Bao from Tiandu Sect poured out the water in the bowl and breathed a sigh of relief: "The water quality is fine."
Another person asked bluntly: "Bao Xiaopi, are you sure?"
Bao Xiaopi was a short, fat old man. He seemed to be unhappy with others questioning his judgment. He didn't even look at him or answer him. He just let out a cold snort from his nose.
The person who asked the question was not surprised. Everyone in the same circle knew Bao Xiaopi's bad temper.
Although this person is a bit headstrong, his talent in the poison path is even higher than that of his younger brother Bao Jin. Over the years, he has become one of the top twenty elders of the Sky Poison Sect.
Since even Bao Xiaopi said everything was fine, no one would doubt him.
Dongfang Jingting from the Dongfang Aristocratic Family said: "According to the witnesses at the scene, Chen Sheng suddenly killed two colleagues and then tried to poison him, but was stopped by Brother Jian. Do you think there is anything suspicious?"
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. Elder Jian asked: "Brother Jingting, could you see something?"
Dongfang Jingting shook his head: "I just feel strange. Since he wants to poison, why does the poisoning happen after the murder and not before?"
This is indeed questionable, and Elder Jian, as a person who has experienced it, is still puzzled to this day.
In the silence of the whole place, someone suddenly chuckled. Everyone looked around and saw that the person laughing was Bao Xiaopi. Someone asked: "Elder Bao, do you have any wise ideas?"
Bao Xiaopi sneered and said: "I can't say that I have a high level of knowledge, but I do have a small level of knowledge. Do you people think things are too complicated? Under such a strict defense, if Chen Sheng alone wants to poison you, you
Do you think it can be successful?"
Elder Jian's expression changed and he said, "What Elder Bao means is that Chen Sheng has accomplices?" This indeed reminded everyone, but there seemed to be no accomplices in the whole process.
Unexpectedly, Bao Xiaopi was so calm that he stretched out a finger and shook it: "Wrong!"
Wrong? Everyone was stunned, looking at the smiles on their faces, as if they were mocking their Bao Xiaopi, and many people had the urge to beat him up. Dongfang Jingting was the first to speak, and said calmly: "Brother Bao, please stop showing off."
Finding Bao Xiaopi, who had a sense of superiority in intelligence, he was very eager to express himself and smiled lightly: "It's actually very simple. Chen Sheng knows that if he wants to successfully poison, he will not be able to escape completely.
Based on the distance he was standing at that time, once he poisoned, the guards on the left and right would definitely stop him. So he could only find a way to lure the nearby guards, kill them, and then poison him. This would not be difficult to explain why he
Seemingly abnormal behavior.”
Dongfang Jingting glanced at the proud Bao Xiaopi and said: "Brother Bao's analysis is not unreasonable, but since Chen Sheng knows that his poisoning process cannot be concealed, then even if the poisoning is successful, what is the point? Who?
Nor will I drink poisonous water.”
As soon as these words came out, many people burst out laughing and were just about to laugh at Bao Xiaopi. Unexpectedly, Bao Xiaopi was also laughing, and he was shaking his head, which sounded like he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand.
Bao Xiaopi replied: "Brother Jingting's idea, Bao has already considered it, but you have ignored a very important point."
He pointed at the water well, and although his tone was as calm as possible, he could not hide his pride: "In the entire Nuanyang Mountain, only the water wells here and a water well underground can resist the aura of the Heavenly Puppet after being catalyzed by the medicine of my Heavenly Poison Sect.
As long as Chen Sheng succeeds in poisoning, what if he is discovered? We can no longer drink the water from the well, so we can only go underground to get it. However, the amount of water underground is limited, and it will inevitably cause chaos on the surface, and the Demon Sect's plan will also be destroyed.
It was successful.”
Everyone subconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking for a long time, they found that there was nowhere to refute. Bao Xiaopi's words didn't sound right at first, but after in-depth analysis, they actually made some sense.
Then everyone started muttering. Bao Xiaopi looked at everyone's deflated expressions, shook his head, flicked his sleeves, and left directly, as if this place was no longer worth his time.
After everyone thought hard to no avail, they reluctantly accepted Bao Xiaopi's point of view. The most important thing is that the well water is fine, and the most important thing is to pay attention to it in the future.
They had no idea that it was Bao Xiaopi's analysis that led them into a blind spot in their thinking, and they completely misguessed Chen Sheng's purpose of poisoning - he just wanted to cover up the previous poisoning!
Elder Jian looked at Elder Dahuanshan: "That Chen Sheng is one of your people. Dahuanshan will bear a great responsibility this time, and the other masters of Dahuanshan must be screened."
The elder from Dahuan Mountain looked ugly and said, "You don't need to say more, I have my own opinion."
Lian Yi and Ye Jingtang didn't know what happened next, but it was inevitable to feel uneasy in their hearts.
Because less than half a day had passed, they discovered that some Holy Land warriors were being escorted and entered and exited the Holy Land master's camp area with panic on their faces.
Some people were released quickly, some took a long time, and a few people never came out at all.
It was impossible for the Twelve Holy Lands to cause such a big commotion for no reason. Considering what they had done, even Yi and Ye Jingtang felt like their days were like a year, for fear that they would be found out one day.
The warriors from the other five major rivers and lakes are even more confused. Faced with this situation, everyone is in danger.
During the night patrol, the devil attacked again and started a fight with Lian Yi's team.
Lian Yi recognized several of them as the masters of the Qingsha style who cooperated with their actions that day. Knowing that it was Feng Xingba who came to inquire about the news, he secretly made a success gesture.
Several masters of Qing Shaliu paid close attention to Lian Yi and the two of them. After seeing his gesture, they were all overjoyed. They pretended to fight for a few times and didn't even fight at all.
On the side of the righteous path, due to the impact of the poisoning incident, morale was not high. In addition, there was already a plan to use the five martial arts warriors to consume the demonic path, so the holy land warriors did not order a pursuit.
Anyway, when the devil attacks in full force, they will all retreat underground, so let this group of warriors fight against it!
Still by the same river, Feng Xingba was waiting boredly. Soon after, the masters of Qing Shaliu came to the front one after another, clasped their fists and said in unison: "Congratulations to Protector Feng!"
Feng Xingba was about to ask about the situation. When he saw the expressions of these people, his face trembled and he shouted anxiously: "It's not the two grandsons who really succeeded, right?"
How many people are you looking at me?
Lian and Yi risked losing their heads and made such a great contribution to the Holy Sect. In the words of Protector Feng, they actually became two grandsons? I wonder what they would think when they heard this.
But without hesitation: "That's exactly it."
"Hahaha, okay, very good. It seems that those two grandsons are still of some use. What a pity. If there is no such thing, it would be quite useful to keep them around, hahaha..."
Feng Xingba laughed loudly. Everything was just him taking advantage of the situation based on the actions of the Twelve Holy Lands. Even he himself didn't have high hopes. He didn't expect it to succeed. It was really God helping the Holy Sect!
But after he had laughed enough, Feng Xingba suddenly thought of Chen Sheng, the man he had spent a lot of effort to instigate, and sighed sadly.
It took him a long time to gather his emotions, and said to several people: "Follow me back to Wanhua Villa immediately. Three days of drunkenness will only be effective. Tomorrow, tomorrow will be the time for my Holy Sect to launch a large-scale attack and temporarily avenge the blood!"
Those people also started laughing, filled with murderous aura.
