Fengyue Gate.
Du Yuan waited for a long time at the bottom of the long stairs of the main hall, and finally waited for a familiar figure to appear from the top of the stairs.
His spirits lifted, and he immediately went up to him, "Big Brother."
Jiang Yi spotted Du Yuan from a distance. Seeing him approach, he nodded slightly and said, "Are you back?"
"right."
Du Yuan nodded repeatedly, looked up at the summit hall in awe, and asked carefully, "Have the headmaster and his uncle decided on the trip to Ghost Gorge?"
"That's right." Jiang Yi said calmly, "I will lead the team this time."
Du Yuan felt relieved upon hearing this.
For the true disciples of their generation, Jiang Yi is like a stabilizing force.
Ever since he entered the sect, the eldest brother has been the leader of the younger generation, with extraordinary talent and brilliant brilliance.
There is even a rumor circulating in the sect that with the eldest senior brother's talent, he could have achieved the Nascent Soul stage long ago, but in order to lead the disciples into the Ghost Gorge, he has repeatedly suppressed his own cultivation and has not been able to break through.
After this trip to Guijian, when the eldest senior brother comes back, it will probably not take long for him to break through the pill and become an infant, and step down from the position of chief disciple to become the first deputy leader of Fengyue Sect among this generation of disciples.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Du Yuan's face showed respect: "Big Brother, I went to Siji City to investigate personally, and there was no movement over there."
"oh?"
Jiang Yi raised one eyebrow and walked slowly down the mountain, saying, "Are the people from Tianyan Sect still watching?"
Du Yuan followed behind him, nodding repeatedly: "The Tianyan Sect seems determined to kill them all, and they have never relaxed their surveillance in the past five years."
Five years?
A glimmer of light flashed in Jiang Yi's eyes, and a thin and tough figure flashed through his memory.
I don't know if she survived.
Du Yuan did not notice the abnormality of his senior brother. He had always had a knot in his heart for the past few years, but because of the restrictions of the Heavenly Oath, he had never told anyone else except for a few private exchanges with Wan Lingmo.
He didn't understand how Dong Jinghuan escaped the punishment of Heaven when he was clearly bound by the Heavenly Oath.
After much thought, Du Yuan finally couldn't help but said tentatively: "Big Brother, Dong Jinghuan is not someone who admits defeat easily."
Jiang Yi came back to his senses a little, "What do you want to say?"
Du Yuan's face showed fear. "I...I can't say."
When Jiang Yi heard this, he turned around and looked at him thoughtfully.
Dong Jinghuan is a man of extraordinary cunning and means, and he is not a person who accepts his fate.
If he is at the end of his rope, Guijian is his chance to turn things around. Even if Tiantian Yanjiao is watching him, he will find a way out.
But now he is acting out of character and staying in Siji City obediently. He must have another trick up his sleeve.
There was originally no trace of this trump card, but now it seems to be related to Du Yuan.
Jiang Yi didn't ask in a hurry. He thought about it and flew away from the main peak. Du Yuan hurriedly followed.
A moment later, the two landed on a secluded peak.
Jiang Yi swept away the fallen leaves from the pavilion on the peak, brushed his sleeves and sat down. He looked up at the uneasy Du Yuan and said in a clear voice, "You don't need to tell me. I'll ask. If I ask the right questions, it won't be considered a violation of the oath to heaven."
Du Yuan's body trembled slightly, "Big Brother, have you guessed it?"
Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, "You and I are from the Fengyue Sect. Apart from the oath of heaven, who can restrict you from speaking?"
Du Yuan looked ashamed, "It's my fault, Junior Brother."
"Five years ago, at the Tianyan Sect's Fangcunji, you were tricked into losing a top-grade magical weapon by the Lu family's demon woman."
Jiang Yi spoke calmly and logically, "This matter is very strange. Rather than saying it's a lie, it's better to say that she has caught you, right?"
Du Yuan didn't answer, but his shocked reaction proved everything.
The eldest brother had actually noticed this a long time ago.
"Looking back, there were three other people who behaved in the same way as you: Wan Lingmo, Wei Lesheng from the Thousand Stars Hall, and another person... none other than Dong Jinghuan."
Jiang Yi paused slightly, "You three had already fallen into Dong Jinghuan's scheme back then, without even realizing it."
Regardless of Du Yuan's reaction, Jiang Yi continued to analyze: "There aren't many things that can help Dong Jinghuan turn things around...
Recently, news has come from the Tianyan Sect that strange phenomena similar to the Ghost Stream have frequently occurred within the territory, and the clues all point to one place - the underground of the Xiang family mine."
Jiang Yi tapped his knuckles lightly on the stone tabletop. "Du Yuan, I remember that before the East Continent Competition, you assisted Wan Lingmo and went to Xiangcheng. The oath you made to heaven was probably related to the underground treasure.
There are many branches of Guijian recorded in ancient books, most of which are used to seal soul demons or wandering spirits, and suppress them with rare treasures. Among these treasures, there are not many that can attract Dong Jinghuan.
After thinking about it to this point, the answer is clear.
Jiang Yi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Have you discovered the Soul-Fixing Orb?"
Du Yuan was so shocked that his whole body was numb and he couldn't speak. He originally thought that as long as he didn't say anything about this matter, no one would ever know about it except the few people who knew about it at the time.
But the eldest brother was able to connect all the fragmented clues together, and in this short moment, he was able to reveal the whole truth.
The invisible restraint of heaven was broken, and Du Yuan's body softened and he knelt down, gasping for breath.
What a terrifying power this is!
The rift between him and his senior brother turned out to be even greater than he had imagined.
Jiang Yi ignored Du Yuan. His reaction showed that his guess was correct.
If Dong Jinghuan breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, the Tianyan Sect will need to send out at least three Nascent Soul stage cultivators or one Out-of-Body stage cultivator to kill him.
But if they could really send out such a fighting force and still stabilize the sect's foundation, the Tianyan Sect would not be an eighth-grade sect, but a seventh-grade one.
