"Great! Gu Cheng dared to flee in order to evade responsibility!" Bai Qiwei couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face, and said quickly: "Go and gather all the disciples of Zixiao Sect, I have something to tell you!"

Gu Cheng actually ran away at this time, so Bai Qiwei naturally took the opportunity to put the blame on Gu Cheng, and Gu Cheng had no way to refute.

Now Bai Qiwei only needs to analyze the interests clearly with all the disciples of Zixiao Sect. When the time comes, everyone will naturally make a wise choice!

…

At this time, Gu Cheng was still feeling fortunate that he had tracked down the trail left by Xu Feng. This time, what Zixiao Sect lost was a small ginseng fruit tree, not just a few small ginseng fruits. All the Zixiao Sect disciples in charge of Sanqing Temple could not bear such a huge sin.

But if he, Gu Cheng, catches the murderer who dug up the small ginseng fruit tree, such a great achievement will be enjoyed by him alone. At that time, the reward given by the sect alone may allow him to directly break through to the king level.

"Why is the direction this guy fled in the sphere of influence of the Qinglian Sect? Could it be that the guy who stole the small ginseng fruit tree is a disciple of the Qinglian Sect?" Gu Cheng looked at the direction the golden beetle was tracking and couldn't help but reveal a hint of hesitation on his face.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Cheng gritted his teeth and did not change his mind, staring at Xu Feng. In fact, the safest thing to do at this time is to fly to inform other disciples, and it would be most appropriate for everyone to catch up together.

But in order to take all the credit, Gu Cheng was greedy for a moment and did not think that the Qinglian Sect, which ranked so low among the Baimai Immortal Sect, would dare to do anything to him. If a conflict really occurred at that time, Gu Cheng felt that as long as he revealed his identity, the disciples of the Qinglian Sect would be more or less cautious.

…

Xu Feng was flying while checking the map. Most of the areas on the mission map were black, indicating the areas that Xu Feng had not explored. However, wherever Xu Feng flew over, the light would become brighter. Therefore, on the mission map at this time, there was a winding thin line, like a thin snake, extending from the left side to the central area.

Soon, Xu Feng found a mountain in front of him. The mountain had a strange shape. From a distance, there were three straight peaks side by side, like sharp blades piercing towards the sky, just like a trident.

Seeing such a conspicuous sign, Xu Feng immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This was the place where he and his fellow brothers had agreed to meet.

Falling from the sky, Xu Feng soon found an abandoned village at the foot of the mountain. The village looked very small, with only a dozen households. Most of the houses had collapsed due to disrepair. Only some courtyards built with blue bricks seemed to be intact, but these courtyards were overgrown with weeds and covered with a thick layer of dust.

"It seems like I should be the first one to arrive here and meet up." Xu Feng casually pushed open a yard that looked relatively intact, with a wry smile on his face.

At this time, Xu Feng already knew why Senior Brother Bian Ye and the other three senior brothers and sisters needed to separate for a period of time after entering the secret realm.

After simply cleaning the yard, Xu Feng sat in the courtyard, took out some food and drinks and started eating.

Soon, night fell and there was silence all around. Xu Feng opened the main task and took a look. More than six hours had passed and there were still more than ten hours left before the final twenty-four hours. However, he still had no idea how to get the invitation to the Ginseng Fruit Party.

Xu Feng stared at the bonfire he had built in the yard and thought to himself, "According to the agreement, Senior Brother Bian and the other three should have shown up two hours ago, but now it seems that they were held up by something. I can't keep waiting here. If it was just the main quest, it would be fine, but this quest is related to my identity sublimation trial, so I must complete it!"

Xu Feng felt that this identity sublimation trial was very important to him. If he failed the trial, it would probably cause unexpected heavy losses! This kind of sixth sense was very important for a cultivator, and Xu Feng would never ignore it.

At this moment, a beetle with a faint golden glow suddenly flew across the dark sky. The beetle flew over Xu Feng's head and began to hover, motionless, with only a slight trembling sound of its wings.

Xu Feng's heart suddenly tightened and he looked up at the golden beetle. This strange beetle made Xu Feng feel uneasy.

Humph! Xu Feng snorted coldly, and a trace of calamity power emerged, condensing into a purple thunder talisman;

Crack~ A purple divine thunder emerged from the dark night sky, instantly illuminating the surroundings as bright as day. The horrifying thunder struck the golden beetle floating in the air, instantly burning it into a small pile of ashes.

"stop!"

It was not until the ashes of the golden beetle fell to the ground that a roar was heard from a distance; a moment later, a panting figure appeared in front of Xu Feng, staring at Xu Feng, Gu Cheng's face was full of anger;

His flying speed was too slow and the golden beetle left him far behind. Moreover, he had been chasing Xu Feng for an entire afternoon and was extremely exhausted. As a result, when Xu Feng tried to kill the golden beetle, Gu Cheng had no time to stop him.

Seeing Gu Cheng, Xu Feng showed a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect that there would actually be a disciple from the Zixiao Sect who would follow him.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng couldn't help but look around;

"Don't look, I'm the only one here!" Gu Cheng's face turned pale and he snorted coldly: "Who are you? How dare you steal the small ginseng fruit tree from Zixiao Sect? Aren't you afraid that you will be wanted by Baimai Immortal Sect after leaving the secret realm?" Gu Cheng stared at Xu Feng and said word by word.

"Haha, stealing the Zixiao Sect's ginseng fruit tree?" Xu Feng raised his eyebrows, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he smiled and shook his head and said, "I am a direct disciple of the Qinglian Sect of the Baimai Immortal Sect. When did I steal the Zixiao Sect's ginseng fruit tree? Do you have any evidence for what you said?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Gu Cheng was stunned. He didn't expect that the person in front of him was also a disciple of Baimai Xianzong. This made things a little tricky.

"Hmph, don't think that you have done it perfectly. My tracking beetle can remember your scent. Otherwise, how could I find you after tracking you for thousands of miles!" Gu Cheng stared at Xu Feng and said loudly.

"Tracking beetles?" Xu Feng's eyes widened, his face looked innocent, and he said with a half-smile, "What tracking beetles? Why don't I see any?"

"That's it..." Gu Cheng was stunned. Wasn't the tracking beetle just killed by this guy? Damn it, the tracking beetle has a very strong defense and can withstand the full force of a person with the cultivation level of a Sanxian, but it was killed directly by Xu Feng. Now there is no trace of its ashes!

"This..." Xu Feng looked at Gu Cheng and couldn't help laughing: "This junior brother, although we are all disciples of Baimai Xianzong, you are so unfounded and slandering me. Aren't you afraid of provoking hatred between Zixiao Sect and Qinglian Sect?"

For a moment, Gu Cheng's mind was buzzing. He had previously preset several plans for what to do after meeting Xu Feng. He even thought of the scenario where Xu Feng would immediately take action to kill him as soon as he showed up. But he never thought that Xu Feng could lie with his eyes open. He clearly killed the tracking beetle in front of him, but he could lie seriously and say that he had never seen a tracking beetle. In this way, he had no evidence at all. How could he prove that the lost ginseng fruit tree in Sanqing Temple was stolen by him?

"Junior brother, as the saying goes, if you catch an adulterer, catch both of them; if you catch a thief, catch the stolen goods!" Xu Feng said slowly, "I don't have any dirty stuff with me right now, and you don't have any evidence. You want to put the blame on me based on just a few words. Isn't that too simplistic?"

Gu Cheng was speechless. He was 100% sure that the ginseng fruit tree that was stolen from Sanqing Temple was stolen by the man in front of him, but he had no evidence to prove it. Not to mention that the tracking beetle had been killed by Xu Feng, even if it was still alive, he couldn't say that Xu Feng stole the fruit tree based on just one tracking beetle! "Damn it, where did he hide the fruit tree?" Gu Cheng's face suddenly became ugly. After a moment of stalemate, he flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, turned around and left, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
