"It...it ate the insect?"

Ye Ziyi's reaction was half a beat slower than Xiao Chen's.

"Yes, eat it like peanuts."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"It won't hurt, will it?"

Ye Ziyi was a little worried. Can you just eat the poisonous insect?

"Look at it, does it look harmful?"

Xiao Chen had no choice but to flick his Heaven and Earth Spirit Root's little head and make it explode.

"No more, just these three, you ate them in one bite..."

"#￥%..."

The Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth tilted its head and looked at Xiao Chen. What did he mean? Was he blaming me for not leaving one for him to eat?

"I don't want to eat it, you can eat it yourself."

Xiao Chen really understood the expression of Tiandi Linggen and curled his lips.

I was originally thinking about whether I could let the spiritual roots of heaven and earth find Zou Xiangming by relying on his aura, but now there is no hope.

"It's all my fault..."

Ye Ziyi looked at the spiritual roots of heaven and earth and smiled bitterly.

"How can I blame you? Who would have thought it would eat it?"

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Forget it, there's no point in keeping it, just eat it."

"So what are your thoughts next? Including Elder Xiao and Elder Long."

Ye Ziyi asked.

"I don't have any good ideas..."

Xiao Chen put the spiritual root of heaven and earth back into the bone ring and leaned back in his chair.

"The most urgent task is to find Zou Xiangming..."

…

This was a sleepless night for most people in Kunyumen.

This is true whether it is the old monster or the person who comes to Kunyu Gate to seek refuge out of fear.

The murderer who wiped out the whole family just appeared like that.

But the most dangerous person is hiding among them.

This makes a large number of people feel anxious.

Even Long Zhuifeng said that Kunyu Gate was not safe and had even reached the most dangerous moment.

This is not alarmist, but fact.

Some people are already thinking about leaving Kunyu Gate... Xiao Chen has killed many murderers who wiped out the entire clan, so it won't be shameful to leave now.

At least... I participated, even if I didn't do anything and just stayed for a few days.

At Gong Yangchun's residence, Xie Gan was drinking tea while glancing at Gong Yangchun out of the corner of his eye.

He could see that Gong Yangchun was in a bad mood.

So, he didn't say anything to avoid making himself uncomfortable.

"Tomorrow, I want to meet the Five Guardians."

Suddenly, Gong Yangchun said in a deep voice.

"You want to see the Five Guardians?"

Xie Gan was startled and looked up.

"Damn, this...isn't it inconvenient?"

"It's not inconvenient. I can't care too much at this moment."

Gong Yangchun shook his head.

"Once our people arrive, we will focus on finding the teleportation array... We don't have much time."

"good."

Xie Gan nodded.

"The Five Guardians..."

"Humph, Xiao Chen must stay in Kunyu Mountain... no matter how great the price!"

Gong Yangchun snorted coldly.

"Let's meet privately tomorrow and we'll talk about it after we meet."

"Um."

Xie Gan responded and began to think about how to arrange the meeting.

At this time, you have to be extra careful.

Xiao Chen already suspected them, and maybe he was keeping an eye on them!

If it is exposed, it will be a big trouble.

If their plan was exposed before it succeeded, everything would be in vain.

"Let our people come here in the morning..."

Gong Yangchun said again.

"Xiao Chen's side..."

Xie Gan was a little worried.

"Even if he suspected it, he wouldn't do anything without evidence."

Gong Yangchun shook his head.

"Follow our plan. Don't let what happened tonight disrupt it. But we have to do it faster than before."

"Understood."

Xie Gan nodded.

"Master Ri, will Shen Shijue's side cause any interference to us?"

"Shen Shijue..."

Gong Yangchun's eyes became even colder. This guy is so annoying.

But, he was very afraid.

"Don't worry about him for now, our target is the teleportation array and Xiao Chen."

"yes."

Xie Gan responded and stood up.

"Then you take a rest, I'm going to go."

When Xie Gan left, a figure stood in front of the window of a building not far away, looking at several corpses under the searchlight.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes cold and filled with endless murderous intent.

"Xiao Chen, I want you to die!"

The cold voice slowly sounded, causing the temperature of the entire room to drop significantly.

Snap!

The tiles beneath his feet turned to powder.

After a long time, he looked away and restrained his murderous intent.

The game has just begun.

He wants to accompany Xiao Chen and have some fun.

…

Daybreak.

When light drove out darkness and came to the world, many people breathed a sigh of relief, and their frightened hearts were calmed down.

Although the danger is still there, it is not as scary anymore.

Especially those corpses, which were clearer to see during the day, but not as creepy.

"Damn, I finally feel like I'm back in the world of the living..."

"Yeah, I was sent directly to the underworld last night. It was horrible."

"Retribution is retribution, can we not have a light show... Today I'm going to give Master Xiao some advice. We're doing this to make them pay the price, not to scare us so much that we can't sleep."

"I am a strong man in the middle stage of Hua Jin, but I was scared by a few corpses and couldn't sleep well. Can you believe it?"

"Are you still asleep? As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw the scene in front of me. I didn't dare to close my eyes for several hours."

“…”

More and more people showed up, and the topics mostly revolved around the murderer who wiped out the whole family and the several corpses.

"Hey, Patriarch Xiao has found the murderers who wiped out the family and killed them. This is considered justice for the dead. So, shouldn't you fulfill your promise to be the 'Leader of the Martial Arts World'?"

"Let Patriarch Xiao be the leader of the martial arts world? I will definitely support it."

"As long as he takes down the lights, I support it."

"There's no doubt about this. The seniors shouldn't object, right?"

"Who knows? We don't have a strong say, so we have to see what the big forces say."

“…”

In the middle of the morning, Long Zhuifeng gathered a group of strong men and went into the main hall to discuss the current situation.

Basically, they are all innate...If you are not innate, you are not qualified to enter.

Unless one has a special identity or status, such as Ye Ziyi, she participated as Xiao Chen's "military advisor".

Just like Bai Ye and others, they were sent away by Xiao Chen, so don’t cause trouble.

"I have determined the cause of their death..."

Xiao Chen looked at everyone and spoke slowly.

"Insect?"

When this was said, many people were surprised.

They are not unfamiliar with this thing, but they don't know much about it either.

Gu magic...is considered an unorthodox practice in the martial arts world, and is extremely rare.

"Yes, someone used poisonous insects to silence them."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"It is still uncertain whether this person is Zou Xiangming..."

"So, the poisonous insect can kill people without being seen?"

Jiang Lingyun looked at Xiao Chen and asked.

"It's not that scary. With our strength, it's difficult to rely on the Gu worm alone."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"I thought about it later. They were already useless, so they gave the insect a chance and were silenced..."

"call……"

After hearing what Xiao Chen said, many innate strong men breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relieved.

"Don't worry too much. It's hard for the poisonous insect to kill people without them being seen... As I said before, the most urgent thing is to find Zou Xiangming."

Xiao Chen said slowly.

"If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them."

"I think Zou Xiangming is very likely among us."

Yu Yongchang glanced across the audience and said.

"He hides his identity and wants to keep a low profile, but he won't be too invisible..."

After hearing Yu Yongchang's words, everyone looked at each other, but they were not too panicked.

Most people are aware of this.

With so many people here, safety can be guaranteed and there is no need to worry too much.

"Heh, if Zou Xiangming is really here, then I hope he can hide well and not be exposed too early... Otherwise, it will not be fun."

Xiao Chen sneered.

"I am not very interested in looking for Zou Xiangming. My people from the Divine Sect are almost at Kunyu Gate. When they arrive, we will start looking for the teleportation array..."

Gong Yangchun said lightly.

"If we find the teleportation array, maybe Zou Xiangming will jump out."

"Yesterday I thought this name sounded familiar, so I looked it up. I didn't expect it to appear after so many years, but now it's out..."

Someone else said.

"Finding Zou Xiangming and the teleportation array are what we need to do next, but there is one more thing I think I need to mention."

Xuan Kong looked at Xiao Chen and raised his voice.

Everyone looked over there, waiting for what was to come.

"We came here at the order of the leader. Now that the murderer who wiped out the whole family has been found, it's time to explain the matter of 'the leader of the martial arts world' that we talked about that day."

Xuankong said seriously.

"No matter what, Patriarch Xiao has found the murderer who wiped out the family... This matter can be regarded as an explanation to the martial arts world."

"Yes, judging from this incident, Sect Master Xiao is qualified to be the 'Leader of the Martial World'."

Wu Cheng also spoke.

"Support Patriarch Xiao to be the leader of the martial arts world..."

More powerful people have expressed their attitudes.

Xiao Chen was a little surprised. Why did he suddenly bring up the matter of the leader of the martial arts world?

He glanced at Xiao Yi out of the corner of his eye. Could it be that this was arranged by Old Xiao?

"Gong Yangchun, do you support it?"

Shen Shijue turned his head, looked at Gong Yangchun, and asked.

“…”

Gong Yangchun frowned, and felt like cursing, "I want to express my opinion? Why are you asking me?"

However, since Shen Shijue asked, he couldn’t help but express his opinion.

"Master Xiao was able to find the murderer who wiped out the family, which shows his ability. However... I think we should first find Zou Xiangming and the teleportation array, and completely deal with the matter here. It won't be too late to talk about other things later."

Gong Yangchun pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.

"So you don't support it?"

Shen Shijue asked bluntly again.

“…”

Gong Yangchun's face darkened, he was thinking whether he should kill Shen Shijue after killing Xiao Chen.

"How can I not support it? Today's ancient martial arts world should also have such a leader... I support Master Xiao to be the leader of the martial arts world."

Gong Yangchun finished speaking and looked at Shen Shijue.

“Shen Shijue, what’s your attitude?”

"It's what everyone wants, and I support it."

Shen Shijue nodded.

"???"

Gong Yangchun was stunned. What the hell? Didn’t this guy not support me before?

Why such a big change in attitude?

Xiao Chen was also surprised. What was going on with Shen Duidui?

Before, there were all kinds of oppositions, but now you support it?

He appears like a villain, but is actually one of us?

I don't understand.
