Zhuge Xun above looked at Zhang Qiong.

This Zhang Qiong was originally a disciple of the Tianyang Peak of the Inner Sect. After entering Xuyuan Prison, he was noticed by himself and accepted as his last disciple.

Zhang Qiong's talent is not outstanding, but he has a strong sense of justice and a stubborn spirit.

But it was this energy that made him a little stubborn and he couldn't get along with many disciples in Xuyuan Prison.

Over the years, he has only had one disciple, Zhang Qiong.

Now that I'm leaving, I still feel a little uneasy.

However, I am no longer qualified to be Zhang Qiong's master, as he is now a traitor to the Zhenyuan Sect.

"Zhang Qiong, I am expelling you from my sect. From today on, you are no longer my disciple!" Zhuge Xun replied.

“Why, why?!”

Zhang Qiong shouted hysterically.

"Why did you betray the sect?"

"Kid, you don't understand at all!" Zhuge Xun shook his head.

"I don't understand?!"

"Although I am young, I can clearly distinguish right from wrong. I know what is evil and what is good!"

"And you, as the guardian elder of Xuyuan Prison, actually colluded with the evil people of Hehuan Sect to cause chaos in Xuyuan!"

"You are not worthy of being my master!"

Zhang Qiong's eyes were red and his voice was suppressed, almost a roar.

“…”

Zhuge Xun remained silent.

At this point, there is nothing more to explain.

From today on, he will be the shame of Zhenyuan Sect and will definitely be nailed to the Zhenyuan Sect's pillar of shame.

But it doesn't matter.

His goal is to enter the first level and pursue immortality.

Compared with power and immortality, no one and nothing is worth mentioning!

"Zhuge Xun, stop wasting time. The reinforcements from the inner sect of Zhenyuan Sect are coming soon. If you don't leave now, it will be difficult to leave later!" Ji Wuye reminded.

"Zhang Qiong, next time we meet, I will kill you!"

Zhuge Xun's voice was cold, and he immediately turned around and stepped into the formation passage.

However, at this moment, a loud shout sounded in Zhuge Xun's ears.

"Zhuge Xun, you colluded with the Hehuan Sect and aided the tyrant. It's not that easy to leave!"

While Zhang Qiong was talking to Zhuge Xun.

An elder who had reached the first level of perfection came out of seclusion in the depths of Xuyuan, came silently to the top of Xuyuan, and closed the distance with Zhuge Xun.

The elder was wearing a black robe, with his entire face hidden under the brim of his hat.

He flashed into the air and suddenly attacked, throwing the golden chain in his hand away.

"Demon Binding Rope!"

Zhuge Xun's pupils constricted when he saw this.

This is a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Ji Wuye was locked up at that time!

If he gets entangled, he won't be able to escape today!

“Damn it!”

Zhuge Xun looked at the chain that was less than ten feet away from him and quickly dodged to the side.

After narrowly avoiding the chains, he rushed into the formation passage.

"Huh, you want to leave?!"

The black-robed elder controlled the demon-binding rope to turn a corner and directly entangled Zhuge Xun's arm.

"not good!"

Half of Zhuge Xun's body was already in the formation passage.

But the other half is still in the abyss.

He exerted force with his hands like crazy, but he couldn't break free from the golden chains.

Moreover, the powerful force in the golden chains was eroding his body and suppressing his true energy.

"That is the ancestor from the depths of the abyss!"

When Qin Yi saw the man in black robe above him, a look of joy appeared on his face.

Since the old ancestor who had been in seclusion has taken action, and even sacrificed the demon-binding rope.

Now Zhuge Xun can't escape, and it won't be easy for Ji Wuye and others to escape unscathed.

Zhuge Xun gritted his teeth and looked at his arm. Then he showed a fierce look on his face, "Humph, it's not that easy to keep me here!"

Zhuge Xun looked at the black-robed elder rushing towards him, and made a prompt decision to cut off his left arm.

Suddenly, bright red blood bloomed in the air.

Zhuge Xun's left arm fell along with the golden chain.

He also successfully passed through the formation channel and rushed out of the Xuyuan formation.

The black-robed elder caught Zhuge Xun's left arm. He exerted slight force on his palm and a ball of purple flame emerged, burning Zhuge Xun's left arm into ashes.

"This guy is so decisive!"

When the black-robed elder saw Zhuge Xun successfully pass through the formation passage, he knew that he could not stop him today, so he did not continue to attack.

“…”

Zhuge Xun gritted his teeth and looked at the black-robed man below him. His face was pale and his breath was almost weak.

"Master Ji, let's go!"

Zhuge Xun was unhappy, but he had no choice but to evacuate.

"Walk!"

Ji Wuye waved his hand, and the dense crowd scattered and flew away into the distance.

"Zhuge Xun, next time we meet, I will definitely clean up the mess for the sect!"

Zhang Qiong, who was at the bottom of the abyss, saw this scene and roared with all his strength.

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xun just sneered and walked away without looking back.

"If you want to leave, chase me!"

When the chief steward of the Affairs Office saw the people from Dragon Ridge Mountains fleeing, he immediately ordered the disciples behind him to chase after them.

“No!”

The black-robed elder spoke, and his deep and vicissitudes voice slowly spread.

Upon seeing this, the chief steward hurriedly called back all the disciples.

"The Hehuan Sect has mobilized all its forces this time, gathering elite experts from several sects. If we send people to pursue them carelessly, we will only lose lives in vain."

"If I remember correctly, the Nei Zong should be holding the Elders' Conference today, which is held every three years."

"All of this was planned by the Hehuan Sect."

The black-robed elder stood with his hands behind his back, looking in the direction where Ji Wuye was going away, his palms slightly clenched.

Ji Wuye, who was captured after sacrificing two elders, escaped after a hundred years!

What a shame! This is a huge shame for the entire Zhenyuan Sect!

"Pass the order down, seal off Xuyuan Prison immediately, no one is allowed to enter or leave without permission, including the guardian elders!"

The man in black robe spoke, and his deep voice spread throughout the abyss!

"Carefully check and count the names of the disciples and prisoners in Xuyuan Prison over the past thirty years. No mistakes can be made."

"Yes, sir!" The chief steward of Xuyuan Prison Affairs Office bowed and accepted the order.

"Where is Qin Yi?!"

The black robe asked again.

Qin Yi came to the man in black robe and bowed to receive the order.

"You will be given two hours to restore the entire Xuyuan Prison to its original state."

"clear."

Qin Yi bowed and accepted the order.

"Lihong, Liqing!"

"What do you want, ancestor?"

The guardian elders from the sixth and seventh floors who had been following Qin Yi came to the side of the man in black robe.

"You two, notify all the guardian elders below the fifth floor to rearrange the seals of all the cells in the entire Xuyuan Prison!"

"clear!"

The two nodded and turned to rush towards the depths of the abyss.

Li Zhiming looked at the man in black robe. This man was stronger than Ji Wuye. He was probably an old ancestor who was practicing in seclusion in the depths of Xuyuan.

The aura was as thick as the abyss, making people dare not look directly at it.

Li Zhiming became inexplicably excited. With time, he would definitely reach the first level and become a top-level expert!

“Eh…”

"I never thought that Zhuge Xun would actually rebel."

Elder Wang shook his head and sighed.

If it weren't for Zhuge Xun, no matter how capable Ji Wuye was, he would not have been able to escape from here.

"You guys, go back and rest."

Elder Wang looked at Li Zhiming and Mingzhu.

"Thank you all the elders today, otherwise it would be a question whether I could survive."

"You are a disciple of my Zhenyuan Sect. It is the responsibility of us elders to protect our disciples."

Elder Wang waved his hand.

Li Zhiming bowed to the elders one by one, then turned and left.

As he passed by Zhang Qiong, a voice called him.

"Li Zhiming!" Zhang Qiong turned around and shouted.

"What's the matter, Senior Brother Zhang?"

"I'm... sorry!" Zhang Qiong clenched her hands and spoke in a low voice.

"Why are you apologizing to me, Senior Brother Zhang?" Li Zhiming asked calmly.

"Maybe... I really misunderstood you."

"perhaps?"

"Hahaha..." Li Zhiming laughed twice with his head back.

"Brother Zhang, I still like your unruly side. The agreement between you and me remains the same. After I clear my name with my own hands, it won't be too late for you to apologize to me, Brother Zhang!"

After saying this, Li Zhiming turned and left.

After returning to his residence on the first floor, Li Zhiming sat cross-legged, began to rest and check his body.

A quarter of an hour later.

Li Zhiming opened his eyes and looked carefully at the black lines on his palm with a look of confusion on his face.

He carefully checked his body several times, but still couldn't find where the blood was hidden. There was only the black line on the palm of his hand.

"What kind of strange methods did that witch use on me?"

Li Zhiming whispered to himself.

Although there was nothing wrong with his body, the invisible blood was like a time bomb, making him unable to sleep or eat.

Just then, an elder from the third floor came to Li Zhiming's residence.

"Li Zhiming, by order of Elder Qin, I appoint you as the captain of the patrol team on the third floor."

"Disciple obeys your command."

Li Zhiming bowed and accepted the order.

Very good, now I have a reputation and status.

With the identity of the patrol captain and the pass given by Elder Qin, can't he enter and exit the first five floors freely?

"Li Zhiming, this is the patrol captain's token."

"Because we need to take inventory of the names, all the patrol disciples and servants of Xuyuan must stay in their own quarters and cannot move around at will."

"From today on, patrolling and cleaning the Xuyuan Prison will be the responsibility of you patrol captains and some elders."

"clear."

Li Zhiming nodded, feeling delighted.

There were a lot of corpses in today’s chaos, and these are all the “nutrients” for me to become stronger!

"The task will be a bit heavy and you will have hard time." The elder patted Li Zhiming on the shoulder.

"This is the healing pill that Elder Qin asked me to give you. Take care of yourself first, and you can start working when you're ready."

"good."

Li Zhiming took the two jade bottles with a bow.

After watching the elder leave, Li Zhiming returned to bed, took two healing pills, and began to repair his injuries.

His injury is not serious and he can be cured with some general treatment.

Half an hour later, Li Zhiming opened his eyes.

Can’t wait any longer, go collect the bodies!
