The peak masters were investigating the failure of the Xuan-testing stone, and they were also carefully reviewing and examining the files of the disciples who had entered the site.
If Jiang Zilin hadn't happened to run into Qiao Yu, Wen Jinge hadn't been arrested, and Ai Fengling hadn't been watching closely, probably no one would have noticed this violation.
The outside world was in complete chaos, but those inside the illusion remained completely unaware.
"Get out of the way!" the little clay figure shouted.
If it were an ordinary arrow, Wang Xi could help Qiao Yu heal her wounds, but if it was an arrow formed from Xuan Qi, she really had no experience with that.
The reason for using Xuan Qi was to inflict some damage on Jiang Zilin with this deadly move, rendering him unable to harm others for a short period of time.
However, she miscalculated.
However, Jiang Zilin also miscalculated.
Qiao Yu was fine; in fact, he felt quite good in this state. The state of being promoted to a higher rank had disappeared, and his whole body felt ice-cold, but his cultivation level seemed to have increased.
So he said something Wang Xi would never forget: "Could you shoot me again?"
Wang Xi was stunned, and Jiang Zilin, who was about to make a sarcastic remark, was also stunned.
"It feels very comfortable," Qiao Yu said, but then frowned. "Just once, just once!"
Wang Xi never thought her arrows could damage a person's brain. She was very uneasy. "Senior brother, are you alright?"
"Quick!" Qiao Yu grabbed Wang Xi's hand and aimed the arrow at his heart. "Like this, draw the bow, quick!"
"Senior brother..." Wang Xi hesitated, but still asked while reaching out to help, "Are you really alright?"
"What, can't outrun them? Are you planning to stage a scene of mutual slaughter?" Jiang Zilin leaned against the tree, their lives and the jade tokens were both of his must. "Don't worry, I will definitely get your jade tokens before you die."
biu!
biu!
biu!
Draw the bow fully and release!
Full speed ahead, unleash it!
Fully loaded, then released again!
Wang Xi didn't know how many times she had vomited, but Qiao Yu was not dead. Not only was she not dead, she could also vaguely see the vortex hidden above Qiao Yu's head...
Is this another upgrade?
She was jealous, and in doing so, she shot arrows.
Jiang Zilin naturally saw all of this, and soon he stopped laughing.
"Junior sister! Move aside."
"Oh." Wang Xi's hands were sore from drawing the bow, but thankfully Qiao Yu finally called a stop.
"Senior brother?" Wang Xi was puzzled, because Qiao Yu was holding a knife instead of a sword, and he charged straight at Jiang Zilin.
Jiang Zilin was taken aback at first, then smiled and said, "Is that all you've got?"
“My master said it, my grandfather said it, and Senior Song Ren warned me. I won’t die like this.” Qiao Yu saw him laughing maniacally and smiled with relief. “So, I won’t let you go.”
...
As the red worms gradually receded, only five skeletons remained on the ground. From their clothing, one could vaguely discern who they were.
Wen Jingge retrieved the scales, and the world was restored to light. The hole in the ground was still there, dark and gloomy, as if it led to another unknown world.
The barrier was gone, the demonic energy was gone, and Wen Jingge stared at the five skeletons, her mind still replaying Bei Moling's last words before her soul dissipated: "I will definitely come back!"
She felt the name sounded familiar, but couldn't quite place where she had heard it before.
Never mind, what does it matter to Wen Jingge whether she comes back or not? Bei Moling only needs to remember that it was Qiao Yu who killed her.
“Since you can’t leave here, I’ll take you back!” Wen Jingge carried their remains back into the cave one by one. After everyone was out of sight, she looked at the cave entrance thoughtfully, “That doesn’t seem very considerate!”
As she said this, she took a pile of clothes from her spatial ring, tore them into strips, used tree branches to enclose the hole, and put up a flag: "Evil spirits inside! proceed with caution! I've personally tested it and it's dangerous!"
Goodbye, everyone!
Wen Jingge didn't bring the jade pendant with her, thinking that she had done everything perfectly. However, she didn't expect that there would be far more trouble in the illusion than she had imagined. Meanwhile, her senior brothers and sisters were rigorously investigating the anomalies behind each jade pendant.
The main target of the investigation was Qiao Yu, and Song Qian, who had encountered Qiao Yu at the beginning, did not have a jade token on her, so all the recording cranes were mobilized to recreate the scene of her appearance.
Shan Hongxing looked depressed and preoccupied.
Bai Teng glanced at Liang Si standing behind Ai Fengling, then looked at Ai Fengling again. In their lineage, only Ai Xiaoqi and Wen Xiaowu were close. Liang Si, Wen Xiaowu's disciple, was usually a bit dull, but he wasn't a blockhead. However, the one behind Ai Fengling looked like a puppet.
"Did Wen Xiaowu know something bad would happen inside?" Fan Zifan pointed to the sign she had set up, lost in thought. He seemed to have forgotten something important about this place. "Didn't our master say that this entrance needed to be repaired when he was alive?"
Huo Yongfei nodded, as if he remembered, "Before Master passed away, he asked us to go in. Later, when you and I took over the sect, there were too many things to do, so we forgot. It was my mistake."
“I’m not uninvolved either.” Fan Zifan shook his head, looking worried. “How much longer until that Demon Lord is born?”
"It could take anywhere from ten to a hundred years, it's hard to say. Even our master's generation couldn't change the cause and effect, so what can we, the younger generation, do?" Song Huan pointed to the hole in the memory stone, then looked at Wen Jinge's retreating steps, his eyes suddenly lit up, "What, what is this? Quick, quick, get the divination plate, I think I've remembered a formation."
"Since Senior Sister has gone in, everything should be fine now." With such a big mess now, Ai Fengling felt that whether or not this matter was concealed was no longer important, because apart from his former master, no one really dared to punish his Senior Sister. Moreover, Senior Sister went in not to show favoritism to her disciples, but to seal the barrier.
"She..." Huo Yongfei smiled helplessly, "She actually knows how to tell fortunes."
“Senior Sister does everything without exception.” Ai Fengling had unconditional faith in Wen Jingge, even though Wen Jingge had always seemed like an unreliable person.
"You! Just wait to be sold off and have your money counted!" Shan Hongxing rolled her eyes at him. "I don't know what's so good about her."
"It can make money!" Song Huan's thought process was always a bit long-winded, and his IQ was sometimes there and sometimes not. He pointed at Wen Jingge as she left and exclaimed, "Wow! That's Senior Sister Wen!"
Everyone: ...
"Wait a minute! Why are you all looking at me like that?" Song Huan asked, puzzled. He pointed to his divination plate and then looked at the ugly man in the image stone. "That's right, it's Senior Sister Wen's. I saw her walk this step before. She said it was for warding off evil. I was just too stupid, and she demonstrated it too slowly."
Everyone: ...
"It really is Senior Sister Wen, don't you believe me!" Song Huan said more and more anxiously, "This is disguise, not the kind that uses Xuan Qi. Senior Sister used to disguise herself like this when she went down the mountain to sell cabbage and medicine!"
Fan Zifan took a deep breath. Actually, sometimes breathing is also a kind of pain!
