"Senior building owner, who do you think sent these assassins from Wujian Building to assassinate us?"
Lu Qing's words made the owner of Tianji Tower pause at first, and then he fell silent and did not speak for a long time.
Seeing him like this, Lu Qing smiled and said, "It seems that the host has already made some guesses."
The owner of Tianji Tower still didn't speak.
"Brother Lu Qing, do you know who sent people to assassinate us?" Ma Gu couldn't help but ask.
"It's a very obvious problem. The number of people we have offended is not that many, and the number of people we have committed life-and-death feuds with is even smaller.
Think about it, who wants us dead the most right now?"
"Hanging Mountain!" Magu said without hesitation.
He soon understood and said firmly: "It's correct, this Xuankong Mountain claims to be the right way, but in fact it is very hypocritical!
In the daytime, they wanted to forcibly convert Doctor Chen under the pretext of discussing Taoism. This is even more disgusting than the evil sects.
Brother Lu Qing, you not only ruined their plan, but also killed their people.
These killers must have been sent by them!"
“That’s right!” Wei Zian also said at this time: “In my opinion, the reason why this Wujian Tower was able to survive the crusade hundreds of years ago might be that Xuankong Mountain secretly took action!”
When these words were spoken, everyone else was shocked and couldn't help but look at the owner of Tianji Tower, wanting to see what he had to say.
Even Lin Zhirui was no exception and looked at his master.
Being stared at by everyone, the owner of Tianji Tower finally sighed.
Said: “Hundreds of years ago, when the major sects were besieging Wujian Tower, there was indeed a strange incident that troubled the masters at that time.
That was when they wiped out all the forces of Wujian Tower and slaughtered almost all the disciples.
The leader of Wujian Tower and several supreme elders fought with many masters, suffered heavy losses, and fled to their old nest.
He simply set fire to the entire nest, along with the remaining disciples who were holding on.
The fire was caused by kerosene and other combustible materials poured onto the Wujian Building, and it burned extremely fiercely.
As a result, although the masters of various sects had surrounded the nest of Wujian Tower, they could only wait until the fire was extinguished before continuing to attack.
But after entering, all I saw was a scene of tragedy.
In the lair of Wujian Building, the ground was littered with half-burned remains and ashes, making it impossible to tell who was who.
There is no way to confirm whether the leader of Wujian Tower and several supreme elders were buried in the sea of fire.
This also became an unsolved case that year.
However, in the following hundreds of years, Wujian Tower never appeared again.
Therefore, everyone unanimously agreed that the leader of Wujian Tower and the elders should have died in the sea of fire at that time.
Wujian Building was reduced to ashes in the fire and completely disappeared.
Who would have thought it would appear again tonight."
"Don't think about it. It's obvious that the leader and elders of Wujian Tower are not dead, and it must be Xuankong Mountain that is protecting them!" Magu said firmly.
The owner of Tianji Tower did not refute.
In fact, it was recorded in the top-secret files he had read.
After the Wujian Tower was wiped out that year, for a long time afterwards, all major sects did not relax their vigilance and continued to send personnel to investigate all over the world.
In case there are still remnants of Wujian Tower left and they revive again.
Even decades later, no trace of the remnants of Wujian Tower was found in the world.
All the major sects then confirmed that Wujian Tower had indeed been completely wiped out.
In fact, considering the extermination efforts of the major sects back then, if there were any remnants of Wujian Tower left, it would be unlikely that they would not be discovered.
But now, the killer from Wujian Building appeared in front of him again.
This only shows that Wujian Tower has been hiding in the dark and lurking silently for hundreds of years.
And he was able to evade the detection of so many sects for decades, including the search of killer sects like Qishalou who were proficient in the art of assassination and lurking.
After much thought, the owner of Tianji Tower realized that there are only a handful of mysterious places in the world that can do this.
However, without solid evidence, the owner of Tianji Tower could not say that.
So this is really too horrifying.
You know, the proposal to wipe out Wujian Tower was initiated by the Holy Mountain, and finally decided by the four secret places.
In the end, the remnants of Wujian Tower were sheltered in a secret place.
If the major sects knew about this, it would definitely cause a huge shock.
After all, when the Wujian Tower was wiped out, all the major sects lost a lot of manpower.
In some sects, even their leaders were killed in battle.
If you knew about their sacrifices back then, it would become a joke.
I’m afraid that some sects will go berserk immediately.
It is a turbulent time right now, and Zhongzhou is already in a tense state.
If this news gets out, the situation, which has finally calmed down, will probably fall into chaos again immediately.
"Don't be embarrassed, senior landlord."
Lu Qing saw the concerns of the Tianji Tower Master and smiled: "This is just Ma Ye's guess, don't take it seriously. We will find out the truth ourselves."
Having said that, how could the Lord of Tianji Tower not see that Lu Qing and the others were already certain that this matter must have been caused by Xuankong Mountain.
He sighed again and said, "Young Master Lu, the reappearance of Wujian Tower is full of mysteries, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as it seems on the surface.
Although Xuankong Mountain is a strong suspect, we cannot completely confirm that they were responsible.
I hope you can think twice before you act, and don't fall for other people's provocations, lest you be used as a gun without knowing it."
"Don't worry, senior OP, I'm not a reckless person." Lu Qing nodded.
"That's great." The Tianji Tower Master nodded, "But Wujian Tower has reappeared in the world after hundreds of years. This is a serious matter. I must report it to the Holy Mountain.
Young Master Lu, you have been frightened tonight, please take a good rest. I will send someone to deal with the corpses in these rounds."
"Thank you, senior."
Lu Qing did not object, but bowed to the owner of Tianji Tower.
After the leader of Tianji Tower left in a hurry, other disciples of Tianji Tower came soon. After paying their respects to Lin Zhirui, they began to clean up the corpses.
Lu Qing and his companions did not stop them and watched them carry the body away.
"Mr. Zhirui, what are you thinking about?"
After the disciples of Tianji Tower carried away all the corpses, Lu Qing saw that Lin Zhirui seemed to be in a trance, so he asked.
"I was wondering, if it is confirmed that what happened tonight was done by Xuankong Mountain, what are you going to do, Mr. Lu?"
"What else can we do? They are powerful and we are just small fry. What else can we do except stay away from them?" Lu Qing said calmly.
If you are a small person, I am afraid that no one in the world can be called a big person.
Lin Zhirui secretly complained in his heart.
Which small-time figure could crush the disciples of Xuankong Mountain to death and escape unscathed?
What's more, he could use his acquired body to severely injure the innate masters of the Xuan generation in Xuankong Mountain with one strike?
However, Lin Zhirui also knew that Lu Qing's words were just to deal with him.
Based on his understanding of Lu Qing, he was not the kind of person who would back down when faced with difficulties.
At that time, he had only cultivated to the Muscle and Bone Realm, but he dared to challenge the martial arts master. Even if the Xuankong Mountain was more powerful, it would not be able to scare him.
Otherwise, he would not have crushed the disciple from Xuankong Mountain to death in front of so many people during the day.
Of course, Lin Zhirui did not persuade Lu Qing.
When one cultivates to their level, their personalities are extremely independent and their wills are as strong as steel.
Once a decision is made, it is rarely changed because of a few words from others.
The current hatred between Xuankongshan and Lu Qing and others is obviously irreconcilable, and it is not something he can dissuade.
Therefore, Lin Zhirui did not say anything more until he said goodbye and left.
…
Not long after Lin Zhirui returned to his own courtyard.
On the other side of the Holy City, in a certain house, several figures with strange auras gathered together, looking at the several broken jade tablets in front of them and fell into silence.
After a while, a figure spoke in a hoarse voice: "The life cards are broken, they are all dead."
"How could they fail so quickly? They just went in not long ago?" another figure said in disbelief.
"Four disciples who were at the minor level of the Xiantian realm and close to the great level of the Xiantian realm, all died. Didn't they say that the target was only a few disciples at the post-natal realm and one disciple at the great level of the Xiantian realm?
Or did the old guy from Tianji Tower take action?" Another figure asked in the same way.
"That doesn't make sense. Even if it was that old guy, he shouldn't be able to find Jueming and the others' whereabouts."
"No matter what the reason is, it's obvious that we've been tricked by the monks of Xuankong Mountain. The information they provided is incomplete." The hoarse voice said coldly.
"I knew that this group of bald donkeys are not so kind. They actually dared to let us take action. It turns out they want us to die!" A figure said indignantly.
"What should we do now? Even the disciples who have reached the minor success of the Xiantian Realm have failed. Should we continue the mission?"
"Of course we have to continue. Do you want to disobey the orders of Xuankong Mountain?"
As soon as these words came out, all the figures couldn't help but tremble.
Although they were cursing the bald donkey now, they knew how terrifying the real Hanging Mountain was.
That was a terrifying force that they had no chance of resisting.
"Get ready, wait a moment, and we will take action ourselves.
The other side just experienced a round of assassination, and they certainly didn't expect that we would continue to attack."
The hoarse voice said coldly.
"Really?" However, just as he finished speaking, a voice sounded faintly outside, "Then have you ever thought about whether you can survive tonight?"
“Who is it?!”
There were several figures in the room, and this was a big shock.
They hadn't imagined that someone could get close to their assassination master without being noticed.
The way this person conceals his breath is so terrifying!
boom!
Just as the figures in the house were shocked, the windows and doors of the house they were in suddenly exploded, and several cold rays of light, carrying unparalleled power, rolled up the air currents and blasted towards them one by one.
“Get out of the way!”
Although the attack came suddenly, the people in the room were no mediocre and they dodged immediately.
Bang!
With a powerful noise, the house where the figures were located was instantly shattered into pieces, and the wall was directly broken.
One of the figures just appeared, and the next moment, he saw a dazzling knife light flashing in front of him.
"how……"
The figure's eyes suddenly widened, because he had no idea that there was anyone in front of him.
However, when he saw the flash of the knife, it was too late.
Before he could utter the last two words, he felt dizzy and the last thing he saw was his headless body.
"Third brother!"
“Third brother!”
"Third Brother!"
Several other figures also rushed out of the smoke and dust at this time, and saw the scene before them, and they all shouted in surprise.
At the same time, my heart felt cold.
You know, the third brother had broken through to the Innate Realm not long ago, but now he was beheaded with a single sword after just a brief encounter.
Who are the attackers? Could it be that some one who has reached the perfect innate realm has noticed their whereabouts and is coming to kill them?
Those figures looked at the figure standing in front of the corpse of the third brother, wanting to see clearly who he was.
However, when they saw the man's appearance clearly, they were all stunned.
Because they saw that the person who came was dressed in black, wrapped tightly, and had a ghost mask on his face, so his true appearance could not be seen at all.
More importantly, the aura of this person was extremely ethereal, as if it had completely merged into the surrounding space.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would not have noticed that he was standing there at all if they had only sensed it with the power of their souls.
The degree to which it could conceal its aura was actually comparable to that of their [Infernal Walker], and was even slightly better.
"Who are you and why are you attacking us?"
The hoarse voice questioned.
However, Lu Qing had no interest in answering him.
Instead, he secretly used his soul to transmit his message: "Xiao Li, take action, and make a quick decision. Don't let anyone go!"
Yes, the man in black with a ghost face is Lu Qing.
Long before he killed those disciples of Wujian Tower who attacked the courtyard, he used his supernatural powers to investigate the identities of those people.
Not only that, he also got a very important message from the many notes.
That is, there is a group of killers in Wujian Tower, lurking somewhere in the holy city.
So after Lin Zhirui left, he immediately informed his master and brought Xiao Li to the place where the remaining killers were lurking in Wujian Tower.
After learning from the owner of Tianji Tower about the usual style of the Wujian Tower killers, Lu Qing could no longer allow these shameless people to live.
"Um!"
After hearing Lu Qing's voice transmission, Xiao Li, who had already used his innate magical powers to hide in another layer of space, responded softly and then quickly pounced towards one of the figures on the opposite side.
At the same time, Lu Qing swung his sword, and his body shot out, pouncing towards the remaining three figures on the opposite side.
"careful!"
Sensing the murderous aura emanating from Lu Qing, coupled with the might of him just killing the third brother with a single blow.
The remaining three figures in Wujian Tower did not dare to delay and took out their weapons, ready for battle.
However, the next moment, the pupils of one of the figures suddenly widened, and he lowered his head in disbelief and looked at his chest.
I saw a blood hole as big as a bowl appeared there at some point.
The heart inside has disappeared!
