Chapter 129 Tacit Understanding

If they start by cutting down other people's trees, how will others view their sect?

The four of them were silent, pushing each other.

Qiao Yue said, "Okay, it's really not good to cut down other people's trees now. I will ask the people from Tianjian Sect tomorrow if we can move to another place." When she came here, she actually felt bad too, a feeling she couldn't describe.

The master and the eldest senior brother were chatting. She was the most senior here, so she naturally wouldn't let them do anything wrong.

Nan Xiao: "Then I'll go back and rest first."

Lu Huai followed up by saying, "Me too."

Ye Wumian and Su Xun looked at each other and said in unison: "Let's go back first."

"Good night, Senior Sister."

Qiao Yue: “???”

She looked at the backs of her fellow apprentices and chuckled helplessly.

"Little bastard."

········

It is a dark and windy night, a time for murder and arson.

Nan Xiao was dressed in black, holding a machete in his hand, and looked at the other three black figures in confusion.

She swore that she really had no appointment with them.

After all, this place is Shen Chaochao's lair, and coupled with what Gu An had told her before, she has always been alert.

If one person feels that there is something wrong with the forest, it doesn't mean anything, but if everyone feels uncomfortable at the same time, then there is definitely a problem.

Although the second senior sister said that she would ask them to change accommodation tomorrow, if this place was prepared for them by someone with care, it would definitely not be so easy to change, and they would only make various excuses and shirk responsibilities.

Even if it is really changed in the end, who knows if Shen Chaochao has any backup plan.

Even without any evidence, Nan Xiao could guarantee that it was her.

This may be the tacit understanding between the heroine and the supporting actress.

It can only be understood, not expressed in words.

Several people took a quick look and said at the same time: "You also..."

Lu Huai spoke first, "I inexplicably hate this forest. I think Xiaoxiao's idea is very good, so I plan to act secretly in the middle of the night so that Second Senior Sister won't blame you."

"So, Xiaoxiao, two brothers, why are you here?"

Ye Wumian said: "I don't know. After I went back, I couldn't sit still and meditate. I kept thinking about it. I felt that if I didn't do something, I wouldn't feel at ease. That's why I came."

Nan Xiao raised the axe in his hand. Everything was self-explanatory. Just chop and it's done.

Su Xun made a gesture: "Act separately."

"good···"

The four of them split up and moved in several directions.

I was originally worried that I wouldn’t be able to finish the work in one night, but now with the help of three brothers, I don’t have that worry at all.

However, they were so busy cutting down trees that no one noticed that a petite and slender figure at the highest point of the yard was watching the whole process.

Qiao Yue sighed helplessly, quickly formed seals with her hands, and before they could make any noise, she used a formation to isolate the area.

How could a senior sister not know what her junior sisters and brothers were thinking?

Anyway, she had already stopped him once before evening, and she rested that night and knew nothing.

As for the disappearance of the grove, it could only be said that the Tianjian Sect's defenses were weak and needed to be strengthened. What did this have to do with the Xiaoyao Sect? She also wanted to talk to the Tianjian Sect disciples about it. Someone was stealing trees in their sect at night without them knowing. What if a bad guy sneaked in and hurt someone?

The four of them worked quickly and finished the work in an hour.

Several people worked together to destroy the cut down trees.

Nan Xiao looked at the empty surroundings and the moonlight pouring down. The uncomfortable feeling was indeed much relieved.

They said good night to each other and went back quietly.

…………

Early in the morning.

Lin Jingyuan watched the woods in front of the courtyard disappear completely. There was even an area where no tree stumps were left, only a row of pits. He felt the sun pounding.

He gritted his teeth and looked at the disciples behind him who seemed to be indifferent. He asked, "Who did it???"

It's not these little bastards. He would twist their heads off and let them kick them around like a ball.

Everyone shook their heads.

There is no evidence anyway.

Originally, due to the dense forest, the two neighboring courtyards could not see what was happening in Xiaoyao Sect.

Now the forest is gone, which means that there is no cover between them and the other two sects.

The one on the right is from the Spirit Beast Sect, and the one on the right is from a small sect I don’t know.

They were also curious about why the place had changed so much overnight.

Lin Jingyuan was scolding his disciples at the time. It was human nature to like to watch the fun, and everyone stretched their necks to look over here.

"Master, I went to bed early yesterday morning and don't know anything." Nan Xiao looked innocent and guessed, "Is it possible that this place is not clean?"

Lu Huai nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I felt that those trees were growing fiercely yesterday. Maybe they turned into spirits and ran away."

Su Xun and Ye Wumian also nodded in agreement.

Lin Jingyuan: “…………”

Does he look like a fool?

Jiang Xia watched the little tricks between the few people and understood what was going on. He gently advised, "Master, the competition is about to begin. Let's go to the venue first and take a look at the situation here. I will inform the disciples of the Tianjian Sect. The loss of these trees will be covered by us."

Lin Jingyuan waved his hands and said impatiently: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and go. Do you still want to stay here and watch the tree become a spirit and then run back by yourself?"

"Goodbye, Master."

Several people ran away quickly.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the others also dispersed and went about their own business.

As they were walking down the street, Jiang Xia suddenly said, "Junior sister, next time you do something like this, be more careful."

He couldn't be sure whether his junior sister was the one who took action, but it must be her who came up with the idea.

Nan Xiao's bright eyes were filled with innocence: "I don't understand what Senior Brother said."

What if she doesn't admit it?

"Yeah," Jiang Xia laughed, "but it's well done."

A few small ones can notice the abnormality.

How could Jiang Xia and Lin Jingyuan not know.

But it's all for outsiders to see.

Otherwise, with the commotion last night, even if Qiao Yue used a formation to cover it up for them, it would be impossible to hide it from the elders of Tianjian Sect who were hiding behind the scenes.

After several disciples left, Lin Jingyuan's tense face relaxed instantly, and his originally serious expression was replaced by a relieved smile.

He muttered, "Those brats, they don't even know how to clean up these tree stumps."

The thought of having to argue with a few old elders of the Tianjian Sect gave me a headache.

…………

The competition venue was set in an open valley. In the center was a huge arena paved with bluestone.

There are several formations around the arena, which are designed to protect the safety of the participating disciples and to prevent the aftermath of the competition from affecting the surrounding spectators.

In front of the arena is a row of staggered stands for the sect’s elders, VIPs, and disciples to watch the game.

The stands were already full of people, and the atmosphere was bustling with noise and the sounds of conversation and discussion intertwined.

Jiang Xia took a few junior brothers and sisters to the seat belonging to the Xiaoyao Sect and sat down.

Nan Xiao looked around. There were quite a few sects participating in the competition this time, more than ten in total, large and small. So far, half of them were empty.

None of the three leading sects have arrived yet.

well! ! !

Lu Huai heard her sigh and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Nan Xiao: "You're early..."

The protagonist should be the last to appear, but now he really looks like an insignificant minor role.

Not cool, not cool at all.
