When Zangtian's voice sounded in his mind, Ji Tianxing realized that something was wrong.
If everything is normal, Zangtian will definitely sleep in the sword monument and quietly recover his strength.
Facts have proved that his hunch was correct.
Something happened in Tianzhu Mountain.
"Whoosh!"
Ji Tianxing's figure flickered a few times, crossed dozens of miles, and flew to the sword monument in the middle of the dojo.
"Zang Tian, tell me exactly what happened last night." He looked up at the sword monument and asked.
Zangtian's tone was low and he explained calmly: "Last night, two men in black sneaked into our door and quietly came to the foot of the sword monument.
One of them was in the Tribulation Realm and was hiding not far away to watch.
Another man in black reached the Martial Saint realm and used spiritual consciousness and secret methods to explore the sword monument, seemingly looking for some secret.
I sensed something was wrong, so I took the opportunity to sneak attack on the Martial Saint, shocked his soul, and fought with him for two moves.
The martial saint in black robes was very powerful. After blocking my attack, he escaped with another man in black..."
After Zangtian finished speaking, Ji Tianxing frowned deeply and his expression became solemn.
"Those two men in black are able to freely travel through the sky formation?
They sneaked into the main gate quietly and quickly escaped from Tianzhu Mountain?
This is impossible!
Even a strong Martial Saint cannot easily break the sky formation!"
Zangtian said in a low tone: "Unless... one of them is a disciple of Tianzhu Mountain and has a token in his hand to enter and exit Tianzhu Mountain!"
"That's right!" Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said with a cold expression: "This is the only explanation! It seems that what I expected is correct, there are still spies in our sect.
I never expected that when Huang Long and I left Tianzhu Mountain, the spies would cooperate with powerful enemies inside and outside..."
Zangtian continued his analysis: "The man in black who has transcended the tribulation realm should be a disciple of our sect.
Only deacons and elders have tokens to enter and exit the sky formation at will.
Therefore, that person is either a deacon or an elder.
In addition, this person was injured by my sword energy and cannot be removed within ten days and a half.
As long as you check carefully, you can find out who it is immediately."
Ji Tianxing nodded, with a sneer on his lips, and said: "I have already guessed who that person is, but I have never been sure.
Since he left a clue, I can find him out right away."
Zangtian said calmly: "That spy obeyed the orders of the black-robed Martial Saint and was able to hold the position of deacon and elder. He must have been lurking in Tianzhu Mountain for many years.
If you deal with him vigorously and resolutely, you need to seriously consider the consequences."
"It doesn't matter." Ji Tianxing waved his hand and said calmly: "With Huang Long and me sitting in Tianzhu Mountain, what consequences will there be? He can't change the world!"
After a pause, he continued to ask: "By the way, does the martial saint in black robe wear a mask with bronze fangs, only showing a pair of eyes?"
"That's right." Zangtian responded and asked doubtfully: "How do you know? Have you already fought against him?"
Ji Tianxing sneered: "Of course! This person laid an ambush on my way back in an attempt to kill me and Huang Long."
Zangtian said without hesitation: "It must be a spy from our sect who told the black-robed martial saint your whereabouts.
Only a few people know that you and Huang Long went to the West Valley.
In this way, the identity of the spy will be easier to investigate."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and warned: "You can continue to nurse yourself back to health. I will go find the spy right away and interrogate him directly about the identity of the black-robed martial saint.
If it's too late, I'm afraid the spy will flee in fear of crime."
After that, Ji Tianxing turned around and left, taking Taoist Huanglong to fly to Tianzhu Palace.
After a while, the two arrived at the gate of Tianzhu Palace.
Ji Tianxing walked towards the meeting hall and told Taoist Huang Long behind him: "Huang Long, go and bring the great elder Nie Tianchen over. I want to see him now.
If he attempts to escape, there is no need to show mercy and he will be captured directly.
Of course, we must keep him alive, I still have something to ask him!"
Taoist Huanglong sensed the murderous intent in his cold tone, and couldn't help but secretly mourn for Nie Tianchen.
"Disciple, obey!"
Taoist Huanglong bowed his hands and quickly turned around and left, rushing to the palace to the east.
Ji Tianxing stepped into the meeting hall and walked steadily towards the throne of first place.
As he walked through the hall, lights lit up on the walls on both sides, illuminating the dark hall.
He ascended the bronze throne and had just sat there for a while when Zhibai and Shouhei heard the news and came over to salute him and say hello.
After the two saluted, they stood respectfully behind him, guarding the left and right sides of the throne.
After a while, Taoist Huanglong led the great elder to the entrance of the hall.
Taoist Huanglong entered the main hall first and stood in the middle of the main hall.
The Great Elder followed Taoist Huanglong, walked calmly, and came into the hall with a calm face, showing nothing strange.
"Master, the Great Elder Nie Tianchen has brought us here!" Taoist Huanglong bowed his hands to Ji Tianxing, then retreated to the left side of the hall and stood still.
Nie Tianchen came to the palace, saluted Ji Tian respectfully, and said in a low and forceful tone: "My disciple Nie Tianchen is here to see his master. I wonder what the master's orders are when he summons his disciple?"
His voice was full of energy and his expression was calm, with no problem visible.
Ji Tianxing glanced at him with cold eyes and said in a playful tone: "Eight hours have passed since the incident, and I am really surprised that you didn't escape."
Nie Tianchen was startled for a moment and asked with confusion: "What do you mean by Master's words? As a disciple of Tianzhu Mountain, as the head of the elders, I should guard the mountain gate and manage the affairs of the sect.
Why should I run away for no reason?"
Ji Tianxing suddenly smiled more and more playfully, "Hehehe, his face remains unchanged, his heartbeat and breathing are normal, and there are no abnormal changes in his eyes...
Nie Tianchen, your Qi-nurturing skills are really good, I am really surprised."
Hearing this sentence, Nie Tianchen frowned with doubts and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Please forgive me for being stupid, I don't understand what Master means by this sentence?"
Ji Tianxing stopped beating around the bush with him, suppressed the sneer on his face, and asked with a majestic look: "Nie Tianchen! I want to ask you, where were you at Yinshi last night?"
Nie Tianchen then showed a look of sudden enlightenment and quickly answered: "So that's what happened! Master Qi, Yinshi's disciple was meditating in the hall last night.
Suddenly, the disciple heard loud noises outside and a violent fight.
The disciple quickly ended his meditation and rushed to the dojo to take a look, only to find that many disciples and guards had been alerted.
Later, when my disciples asked them, they found out that someone had sneaked into our sect to cause trouble..."
Nie Tianchen answered very smoothly, his expression and tone were natural, and he didn't seem to be lying at all.
At that moment, Taoist Huanglong even had the illusion that Master had wronged Nie Tianchen?
