Who was killed and when was he killed?

Obviously, it couldn't have happened in Shushan. If it happened in Shushan, the sect would know the crime as soon as they investigated, and the severity of the crime would be clear. The punishment would be handed down quickly, and there was no way the news would reach Kunlun.

To spread it to Kunlun Taiqing Sect, the prerequisite is that the crime is controversial.

Disputes led to arguments, and the arguments expanded to the entire Shu Mountain, which was then heard by Kunlun.

The result of this inference is obvious. It must have happened during the Golden Palace Secret Realm, which is why Shushan was unable to find out the truth immediately.

But the question arises again: since there is no fighting in the Golden Palace, how could people die?

Ling Yunpo plans to go and get some information.

Naturally, the first target he chose was Duan Fenhai, who was about to pass the tribulation.

Duan Fenhai is the eldest senior brother of Huanglong Peak who is in the Foundation Establishment stage. He will soon become a Golden Core True Person. Therefore, he has considerable prestige and connections in Huanglong Peak and is well-informed.

Arriving at Huanglong Peak, Ling Yunpo met with Duan Fenhai in private and asked him about the secret realm of Golden Palace.

"Where did you get this information from?!" Duan Fenhai quickly signaled him to be silent. "The sect strictly forbids discussing this news. You should not know about this!"

"You know everything, how could I not know?" Ling Yunpo said defensively, "I am also a Jindan Zhenren after all, right?"

"You don't have any elders in Qingluo Peak!" Duan Fenhai said disdainfully.

Look, as long as you can tolerate his straightforward character, Duan Fenhai is indeed a good person to ask questions to.

"Tell me what you know." Ling Yunpo said directly, "Otherwise, I will say that I learned the news about the Golden Palace Secret Realm from you."

Duan Fenhai almost vomited blood when he heard this, and could only tell the truth:

"It is true. It seems to have been discovered by a real person from Ziyun Peak."

"The location is on the plateau, but we don't know exactly where it is. The faction is keeping this matter strictly confidential. You must remember not to rashly inquire about this matter when you are outside."

"I see." Ling Yunpo thought for a moment and asked, "Who does Pari plan to send?"

"That's easy." Duan Fenhai said without hesitation, "The secret realm is only accessible to those at the Jindan stage. Yuanying cultivators and foundation-building disciples cannot enter."

"You and Senior Sister Jiang Xiao won first place in the last Baiyujing Competition. Plus, you are already Jindan Zhenren, so you must take up two places."

"Ziyun Peak was able to get a spot because it discovered the whereabouts of the Golden Palace Secret Realm. I heard that Elder Minghua nominated Miaodan Zhenren."

"The headmaster's department must also have a quota, and it will basically be Master Jinghua. He is the direct disciple of the headmaster Yujing, and the number one Golden Core Sword Immortal in Shushan below the Nascent Soul stage. The headmaster can rest assured if he comes to lead the team."

"In addition, our Senior Brother Tianqi from Huanglong Peak and Master Shiyuan from Jingang Peak also got the quota after Master fought for it. As for whether there are other people, I don't know."

Ling Yunpo nodded upon hearing this and began to think carefully.

The selection of these six people can reflect the complexity of the internal struggle in Shushan.

The Shushan Sect's sect leaders are aloof from the world. Zhenren Jinghua is similar to Qiu Changtian. He can just sit there and do nothing and the sect will provide him with resources. He feels very comfortable.

Under the master, it is up to the elders to show their magical powers.

For example, Ziyun Peak, because it discovered the whereabouts of the Golden Palace Secret Realm, is one of the most meritorious people and has the confidence to be given a quota.

Everyone is eligible for the remaining spots, why should you have them and not me?

Although Duan Fenhai used the word "strive" in a light-hearted way, everyone actually knows how he strived for it - it was almost a power struggle.

So, is it possible that a certain peak coveted the quota in the hands of the senior sister and deliberately framed her?

No, according to the timeline, at least my senior sister and I arrived at the Golden Que Secret Realm safely.

After learning the specific details of the Shushan lineup from Duan Fenhai, Ling Yunpo planned to say goodbye and leave.

"If everything goes well, I will be able to form a pill after you return." Duan Fenhai said with a smile, "If True Man Qingheng is willing to do me the honor, you can come and help me overcome the tribulation and protect me."

"Of course." Ling Yunpo agreed naturally.

After returning to Qingluo Peak, he waited patiently.

After more than a month, the head of Yujing Sect indeed sent someone to Qingluo Peak to deliver a message. It turned out to be his direct disciple Jinghua Zhenren.

"Qingheng, Jiangxiao," he said succinctly, "follow me and meet at the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain."

An Zhisu didn't understand what was going on, but Ling Yunpo was prepared. He quickly went over to hold her hand and told her not to worry.

So Senior Sister An felt a little embarrassed again, and didn't even think about what she was going to do when she was called to Emei.

When we arrived at the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain and entered the Patriarch Hall, we saw that the other three immortals had already arrived, but there was no sign of the head of Yujing - we guessed we would have to wait a while.

So the six of them waited in the Patriarch's Hall... Ling Yunpo looked around quietly.

Master Shi Yuan is a calm and steady man. His thin Taoist robe cannot hide his muscular body at all, which makes Ling Yunpo wonder if he is also practicing some secret technique to cultivate his body.

Master Tianqi appears to be a thin middle-aged man, giving people a teacher-like feeling. At this moment, he is concentrating on reading the sword stele.

As for Miao Dan Zhenren, she was a middle-aged woman with triangular eyes, and had a bit of the mean feeling of Nun Miejue... Ling Yunpo was sure that he did not judge people by appearance, because she had already started to provoke An Zhisu:

"Strange, how come a cultivator without a master can also be qualified to explore the secret realm this time?"

An Zhisu frowned slightly, but remembering Ling Yunpo's warning, he suppressed his anger and explained unhappily:

"My master is in seclusion, but it does not mean that he has no disciples. I think Master Miao Dan remembered it wrongly."

“Heh.” Master Miao Dan sneered, “He hasn’t come out of seclusion for so many years, who knows if he’s dead or not.”

An Zhisu's murderous aura suddenly emerged, Ling Yunpo hurried over to hold her back, only to hear Master Shi Yuan say in a deep voice:

"Say less, Miao Dan! Don't bring your past grudges with Elder Qi Sha into the sect's business."

"I dare not have any grudge against an elder." Miao Dan Zhenren said with a cold face, "In the past, Qi Sha Zhenren ruined my sister's path, just like slaughtering livestock. If I say more, I might be killed by his two disciples. Who can I complain to then?"

“That’s enough!” Master Jinghua shouted sternly, “Miaodan, the Patriarch’s Hall is not a place for you to act out! If you don’t stop, I will report to Master and hold Elder Minghua accountable!”

So Master Miao Dan shut up angrily, turned around and stared at the sword monument.

Ling Yunpo finally stopped his senior sister's hand from drawing the sword, and he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Miao Dan Zhenren no longer provoked him.

Could it be that in the original timeline, it was because of this reason that Senior Sister An later found an opportunity to kill Master Miaodan?

This is troublesome!
