Not long ago.
Central Spiritual Territory, Yongli City.
It was dark now, but the streets were still crowded with people and brightly lit.
A restaurant on the corner was bustling with people, and the hall was almost full. Guests gathered at the tables in groups of three or two, toasting each other as usual, making a lot of noise.
When the wine was in high spirits, someone put down his wine glass drunkenly and said loudly:
“There has been a big news in the Liyuan Holy Land outside the city these days. Have you heard about it?”
“Big news?” The gossiper at the same table immediately perked up and asked with a smell of alcohol:
“Brother Yuan, I heard that your brother is an outer disciple in the Liyuan Holy Land and is well-informed. Tell us what big news there is, so that the brothers can broaden their horizons.”
The other two companions at the table nodded in agreement:
“Don’t keep us in suspense, tell us quickly!”
Hearing these words, the guests sitting nearby also cast their eyes over with interested expressions.
The previous person laughed and said in a proud tone:
“Qin Lingxue, the Jade Sword Fairy of the Liyuan Holy Land, not only has a terrifying talent in swordsmanship, but is also known as She is praised as a rare sword genius in a thousand years, and her appearance is also stunning, rare in the world, not inferior to the Linglong Saint who is known as the most beautiful woman in the righteous way.”
As soon as he said this, he was immediately booed:
“Tsk, I thought it was a big deal, who doesn’t know what you said?”
“I think you’re drunk, talking nonsense.”
Everyone shook their heads, with a strong sense of sarcasm, but the person who spoke was not angry, and said in a profound manner:
“Do you know that such a proud girl who is one of the best in the world has a childhood sweetheart fiancé.”
“Moreover, two days ago, her fiancé suddenly found Liyuan Holy Land and wrote a divorce letter, asking to cancel the engagement with Qin Lingxue!”
As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused an uproar in the hall, and everyone around was shocked.
“Is this true?!”
“No way, what confidence does he have to dare to break off the engagement with Fairy Qin?”
“If I had a fiancée like Fairy Qin, I would wake up laughing in my dreams. I would be willing to live with her for 50 years less. Did that guy get kicked in the head by a donkey?”
Everyone was talking about it, all in an unbelievable state.
Seeing that he had become the focus of the scene, the man surnamed Yuan became more and more excited. He raised his neck and drank the wine in the glass, and said with saliva flying:
“My brother said that the boy was just an ordinary person from a small family. In terms of qualifications, he was a waste with pseudo spiritual roots. He thought he was not worthy of Fairy Qin, so he took the initiative to break off the engagement to save himself.”
“So that’s how it is. This boy is quite self-aware.”
Several of the guests nodded in understanding.
“Yes, it seems that this boy also knows that it is a crime to possess a treasure. If he does not withdraw voluntarily, the group of suitors behind Fairy Qin alone will be enough to tear this waste into pieces.”
“Compared with his life and property, everything else can be ignored!”
The man surnamed Yuan also smiled:
“It is said that the top leaders of Liyuan Holy Land are very satisfied with the boy’s withdrawal from the engagement. The Holy Land’s Sword Master personally decided to allow him to enter Jianyuan once.”
“There are countless swords hidden in the Jianyuan of Liyuan Holy Land. According to the rules, anyone who enters Jianyuan, if the flying sword inside actively recognizes the master, no matter who the master is, can take the flying sword away unconditionally, and no one can stop it…”
Just then, a female voice like nature suddenly rang out in the room:
“What’s the name of the person you are talking about?”
As the voice rang, the atmosphere in the hall instantly froze.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful woman in a purple dress sitting at a table not far away. Her eyes narrowed slightly and she stared at the man named Yuan.
The woman just sat there and blended perfectly with the surrounding environment.
Until the moment she started talking, from beginning to end, no one could detect her presence.
Seeing this scene, everyone looked at each other, and saw extreme fear and dread in each other’s eyes./p>Such a dazzling beauty was sitting at the next table, but they were totally unaware. If she suddenly attacked them, they wouldn’t even know how they died!
Most of the people present were casual cultivators, living on the edge of a knife all day long, and their vigilance was higher than that of ordinary people, but at this moment, they all became blind, which showed how powerful the woman’s means were.
The man surnamed Yuan was obviously also startled, and the drunkenness had long disappeared. He hurried forward to bow and apologized with a smile:
“Senior, the man’s name seems to be Qi… By the way, Qi Yuan, his name is Qi Yuan, and he has the same name and surname as the new Taoist of Taixuan Holy Land!”
Qi Yuan?
Is he here too?
Ji Chan’er frowned slightly, and her beautiful eyes flickered with suspicion.
After finding the grave in Qingyun Town last time, the clues of the Qi family’s murder case were cut off. If she wanted to continue the investigation, she could only start with Qin Lingxue.
She suspected that the murderer was a suitor of Qin Lingxue, who killed the Qi family members to vent his anger because he could not find any trace of Qi Yuan.
Although it would be dangerous to come to the territory of Liyuan Holy Land, she successfully purchased a Nine-Refined Illusionary God Pill in Dan Shengzong not long ago. The Thousand Illusionary Heavenly Demon Body was completely perfected. With the sudden increase in strength, she was confident that she could escape unscathed when facing the sword cultivators of Liyuan Holy Land.
With the treacherous and ever-changing abilities of the Thousand Illusionary Heavenly Demon Body, as long as she did not commit suicide and entered the core area of Liyuan Holy Land, she thought that even if she was defeated by the Mingshuang Sword in Qin Lingxue’s hand, she could get away safely.
As a true disciple of the Demon Sect, Ji Chan’er has always been radical and daring. Since she has made up her mind to investigate the case, she will naturally not be scared by this little risk.
The most important thing at the moment is to find out whether Qi Yuan from the Liyuan Holy Land is real or fake…
Thinking of this, Ji Chan’er’s figure gradually became illusory, turning into a wisp of icy mist and floating away.
……
At the same time.
The main hall of Linglong Holy Land.
Linglong Holy Land Sect Leader Qiu Xuanji sat on the wide throne with a frosty face, and said indignantly:
“What kind of magic potion did Qi Yuan give to Master Feihuang that made Master Feihuang so protective of him and let a man be the Supreme Guest Official with the right to command the Holy Land disciples at will? It’s simply outrageous!”
Linglong Saint Xiao Yueni stood below with an unfocused mind, her slender fingers almost twisting the hem of her skirt. After hearing her master’s remarks, she couldn’t help biting her red lips and said in great distress:
“Master Feihuang once told me to be Fellow Daoist Qi’s woman. Yueni is… As a disciple of the Holy Land, how can I not obey the orders of my Grandmaster? But, but this is too shameful!”
“Master, what do you think I should do? Do I really have to…”
“Ridiculous!”
Hearing this, Qiu Xuanji’s face became even more ashen, and he said in a deep voice:
“This matter is really too weird. Grandmaster Feihuang has always been highly respected and selfless. Everyone in Linglong Holy Land respects her as a god and looks up to her.”
“I suspect that the evil creature was behind this. I don’t know what means he used to deceive Grandmaster Feihuang. Otherwise, with Grandmaster’s character and wisdom, how could she How could we make such a foolish decision.”
A trace of sadness appeared on Xiao Yuenni’s jade face, “Master, are you telling me to disobey your orders?”
“Yuenni.”
Qiu Xuanji was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, shook his head, and said weakly:
“No, Grandmother Feihuang has reborn the Holy Land. As the younger generation, we must not disobey her orders for our own selfish reasons, otherwise how can we face more than 100,000 fellow disciples.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yuenni’s face flushed, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito:
“You Does that mean that the disciple should obey him?”
Qiu Xuanji raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, then sighed:
“Before the master’s decision is changed, I’m afraid you will have to endure it for a while.”
As she spoke, her face became serious, and she said in a solemn tone:
“Disciple, this matter is of no small importance. It concerns the foundation of our Linglong Holy Land. You must take the opportunity to get close to him and find out what happened to Master Feihuang.”
“Of course, it’s just a show. Don’t let him take advantage of you.”
“Your cultivation is at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, while he is only at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage. As long as you deal with it carefully, you shouldn’t let that evil creature succeed…”
