Chapter 401
After arranging the situation in the sect and leaving the books and jade slips sorted out in the cave, Yuan Jing and Ning Yan left again.
Except for the senior management of the sect, no other disciples were alarmed by their return this time, so the cultivators who were watching Jingyan Sect did not know that they had come back and left.
After leaving Jing'an Gate, the intelligence organization that Ning Yan had established privately gradually delivered the information they had been keeping an eye on for the past few years to the two of them. This also allowed them to know what had happened to those people during the years of seclusion.
"Zuo Wenlu and Xu Zhaoyue are really getting closer. Qi Yunyun is no longer in Taiyi Sect!" Yuan Jing's eyes widened at this development. "Is Qi Yunyun still alive?"
"She's still alive." Ning Yan picked up another piece of intelligence. "Look here. She was in danger during a mission and almost died, but she was obviously lucky. Not only did she escape, she also got some opportunities. She obviously realized that she was being targeted, so she has been practicing outside and has not returned to Taiyi Sect."
"If I don't return to Taiyi Sect, does that mean my fate with Zuo Wenlu will be gone?"
"You want them to hold your hand?" Ning Yan asked with a smile.
Yuan Jing shook his head: "I wish I could see Zuo Wenlu and Xu Zhaoyue together. Seeing Qi Yunyun's behavior, her values are much more positive than Xu Zhaoyue's. There is no need to get involved in their feud. I just don't know if Qi Yunyun can still ascend to the upper realm in the future."
In the plot, Qi Yunyun was able to ascend to heaven because of Zuo Wenlu, the golden thigh. As the heroine, she also had many opportunities. Meeting Zuo Wenlu and becoming his disciple was the biggest one among many opportunities. Of course, there were pros and cons. In the relationship between the two, the heroine appeared to be a lot weaker, and it was easy for her to be seen as a vassal of the hero, and she could only have the later status and achievements by relying on the hero.
Yuan Jing didn't know that after Qi Yunyun escaped death, she actually wanted to impulsively run back to the sect to complain, because Taiyi Sect strictly forbids disciples from fighting among themselves, but she was almost killed, it was impossible that there was no intentional act. Didn't she know that her good master didn't show much kindness to her, on the contrary, he was very perfunctory? She suspected that her master was not completely unaware of her training this time. Thinking about the look in his eyes when he left, Qi Yunyun shuddered. Maybe it was arranged by her good master.
But why? Qi Yunyun wanted to know clearly. She had been very honest and peaceful in Taiyi Sect in the past few years. She found that relying on others was not enough, so she calmed down and practiced diligently. She almost never provoked others. When the master accepted her as a disciple, the people who entered the sect at the same time envied her good luck. She didn't know why she caught the master's eye.
But she couldn't help thinking about it. She suspected that she was accepted as a disciple deliberately. Otherwise, why would he accept her and then leave her aside without caring about her?
But with the precedent of Ning Yan, Qi Yunyun suppressed her impulse. She didn't know who her enemy was or what his status was in Taiyi Sect. Ning Yan's status was much higher than hers at the beginning, but wasn't he forced into a desperate situation later?
If she really impulsively went back to the sect to find someone to punish, she probably wouldn't even know how he died. It would be better for her to hide outside for a while, improve her cultivation, and then go back to the sect to see if there is a chance to find the murderer.
Before I entered Taiyi Sect, I didn't know about Ning Yan and Jing Yan Sect. After I entered Taiyi Sect, I often heard people mention them, especially the battle between Ning Yan and the Grand Elder of Chixia Sect. Qi Yunyun was very excited when she heard it. In her opinion, Ning Yan was the protagonist of the world. This journey was a mode of counterattack and slapping in the face, which made her reflect on whether she overestimated herself. Could she achieve the level of Ning Yan?
With Ning Yan standing in front of her for comparison, in her eyes, Zuo Wenlu's halo seemed much dimmer.
It's a pity that Ning Yan doesn't like women but men. Didn't she see that the name of the Jingyan Sect was exposed nakedly, which once again extinguished her idea of relying on men to curry favor with her.
Yuan Jing thought that if he were in Qi Yunyun's position, he would also be confused and bewildered. He didn't provoke anyone, so how could he end up in a fatal disaster?
In fact, no matter in the plot or now, Qi Yunyun is an innocent woman. It is incredible that Xu Zhaoyue, after his rebirth, poured all his hatred on Qi Yunyun. Not only did he let go of his real enemy, but he also talked about love with him. This is completely stupid.
Yes, how can someone who is not a moron do such vicious things.
This kind of person completely disregards human life, so after two lifetimes, she has never felt the slightest bit of guilt or desire to compensate for killing the Zuo family Manchus. She feels very at ease with herself, so her attitude towards Qi Yunyun is to order people to kill her quickly.
When the two arrived at Taiyi City outside Taiyi Gate, information about several children of the Chen family in Taiyi Gate was also delivered to them. The person with the highest status in the Chen family in Taiyi Gate now is Chen Anchen. From his situation, Yuan Jing knew that the one who gave the order to the Jingjun Prince's Mansion in the mortal world should be Chen Anchen.
In addition to Chen Anchen, there are six other members of the Chen family, including Princess Zhilan, whom Yuan Jing met in the capital of the Chen Kingdom. He did not destroy her dantian, so based on her qualifications, she later entered the Taiyi Sect. He thought that his identity would be exposed, and the problem might be with Chen Zhilan, after all, she had seen him.
Her aptitude is indeed good, and now she has built a base, so she is not the worst among the Chen family's children. But the good days of them, the Chen family, are over. Why can they still stay in Taiyi Sect when all 86 members of the Zuo family have died?
The two men started with the Chen family members. There happened to be two Chen family members in Taiyi City now.
Yuan Jing guessed correctly. It was Princess Zhilan who suspected Shang Yuan Jing's identity. After entering Taiyi Sect, she gradually put her past experiences behind her. She was a disciple of Taiyi Sect and had unlimited prospects. As for the Prince Jing's Mansion in the mortal world, isn't it still fine? With them around, the Chen royal family must respect the Prince Jing's Mansion.
But she didn't expect that one day she would meet the suspected murderer who harmed her Jingjun Palace again.
She saw Yuan Jing's figure in the photo stone. Ning Yan became famous after a battle with the Supreme Elder of Chixia Sect. Even though he was a demon cultivator, he was young and had an unparalleled handsome appearance, which attracted many young men and women to become his admirers. Chen Zhilan heard a lot about him and became one of them. She collected a lot of photo stones about Ning Yan to watch his images and heroic postures in battle. This is similar to the situation of chasing stars in the secular world.
But in a photo stone, she saw Yuan Jing and the three foxes beside him. Wasn't that the young man she saw in the Guodu Restaurant? Even though the fox was a little different, she could still recognize it. It was the spirit beast from before.
She immediately took the image stone to find Chen Anchen and told him her discovery. Chen Anchen pointed at the young monk in the image and asked in confusion: "You said that this monk named Yuan Jing is the enemy the palace is looking for? Could it be that they have recognized the wrong person? Or maybe it wasn't this monk who did it in the first place?"
Chen Zhilan bit her lip and said, "It was my father who said this person was the most suspicious. At that time, we found that no other strange cultivators came to the capital of Chen State."
Chen Anchen left the image stone behind and said, "I will investigate this matter. Don't worry about it for now. Just practice hard."
"Okay, I'll be leaving first then."
Chen Anchen asked someone to look up information about Yuan Jing, and as a result, he found out what Yuan Jing had said. When he saw Yuan Jing saying that his biological father abandoned his wife and children to become a disciple of a large sect, Chen Anchen's heart twitched. He remembered something he had asked the Prince's Mansion to do many years ago. It was Xu Zhaoyue who asked him to do it. At that time, he thought it was a piece of cake, so after sending the letter to the Prince's Mansion, he turned around and threw it away. Just as he could look down on the mortal world, in the mortal world, the Prince Jing's Mansion could also look down on the Zuo family.
But then I thought about it and it didn't make sense. If this Yuan Jing was Zuo Wenlu's son, then the two of them wouldn't have the same cultivation levels. Zuo Wenlu was the most talented and fastest-promoting disciple in recent years. Although he was not as talented as Ning Yan, he was definitely the object of admiration and worship among all the disciples in Taiyi Sect.
Zuo Wenlu is a genius. The head of Jingyan Sect, Yuan Jing, is no less powerful than Zuo Wenlu now, so how could he be Zuo Wenlu's son? The son started practicing later than his father, but his cultivation level is higher than his father's?
The more Chen Anchen thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. In addition, as far as he knew, there were too many people like Zuo Wenlu who abandoned their families and careers to devote themselves to cultivation. There were also people on the Feihong Continent who practiced the ruthless way and killed their own wives and children with their own hands. Therefore, this head of Yuan Jing might not be Zuo Wenlu's son.
Although he denied this answer in his heart, because Yuan Jing was still a suspicious person targeting the Jingjun Prince's Mansion, Chen Anchen still sent people to Jingyan Sect for the sake of caution, hoping to find out the details of the Sect Master Yuan Jing from the disciples of Jingyan Sect. This person seemed to have appeared out of thin air, unlike Ning Yan who everyone knew was from the Chixia Sect.
In fact, there is a way to prove whether Yuan Jing and Zuo Wenlu are related more quickly. As long as he goes to Zuo Wenlu in person and asks him what the name of his son born in the mortal world is, then he can determine whether the two are related or not.
But this thought did not even occur to him. If he asked, wouldn't it be like admitting that he had someone kill Zuo Wenlu's family in the mortal world? Even if Zuo Wenlu didn't care about those people, he wouldn't let him go as the murderer, so he wouldn't do something that would bring him trouble.
So although Chen Anchen suspected Yuan Jing, he overturned his suspicion because of Yuan Jing's cultivation. Although he sent people to investigate, he did not take what Chen Zhilan said too seriously. On the contrary, finding the whereabouts of Qi Yunyun seemed more important because Xu Zhaoyue urged him to find Qi Yunyun.
In fact, Chen Anchen didn't quite understand why Xu Zhaoyue was so against Qi Yunyun. Compared with Xu Zhaoyue, the latter was like the mud on the ground and the bright moon in the sky, but Xu Zhaoyue clearly could not allow Qi Yunyun to live in this world. Unexpectedly, Qi Yunyun was not only lucky, but also so smart. She guessed that someone in the sect deliberately targeted her, so she didn't even return to the sect after she survived.
