Chapter 14: The Great Elder is an undercover agent of the Shadow Moon Sect?
The fifth person, who was thought to be hiding very deeply, was now standing trembling in front of the third elder of the Yin Gui Sect, waiting for a reply.
"Then Gao Huohuo said that Zhang Yitian assassinated her today?"
"Exactly. They also want our Yin Gui Sect to hand over the person, otherwise... otherwise they will destroy... our Yin Gui Sect."
"Humph, a little girl dares to speak so arrogantly.
Well, you did a good job today, go down now."
The man quickly turned around and left. He didn't want to be targeted by the Third Elder.
It is said that few people who are targeted by the Third Elder will have a good ending.
Ever since Gao Huohuo came to scold them, everyone in the Yin Gui Sect noticed that Zhang Yitian was missing.
So, the disciples of the Yin Gui Sect all started discussing it in private.
After all, when Gao Huohuo came to cause trouble today, he was very loud, especially the insults he used to curse them, which they still remember.
A disciple started the conversation and said, "Do you think Zhang Yitian ran away? Or is he dead outside?"
"Whether he's dead or alive, what does it have to do with me? Zhang Yitian is not my father."
Another disciple said in a low voice with an evil smile:
"I heard that he had been staying with the Third Elder. Do you think he ran away because he couldn't stand the Third Elder's side?"
When the other disciples saw that this man was so ignorant of the danger and was talking about this matter so openly, they automatically kept their distance from him.
They were afraid that when this idiot died, blood would splatter on their faces and dirty their clothes.
After just a short discussion, no one continued. After all, a mere Qi Refining disciple had little to do with them.
Only the few Qi-refining disciples who had helped him redeem himself before had dejected expressions.
The debt has not been paid off yet, so whether he runs away or dies, they will all lose money.
Small cultivators like them don't have many resources for cultivation.
Now all the compensation has been borne by Zhang Yitian. How can they bear this?
Someone urged them to go find the eldest brother, but who would dare to go?
The eldest senior brother was not only a foundation-building cultivator, but he also lost three low-grade spirit stones at that time.
What these Qi-refining cultivators didn't know was that Zhang Yitian came back that same day and went to the Third Elder, took something, and paid off the eldest senior brother's debt.
Now they are the only ones who suffer. The two monks who took out the elixir at that time were among the three people who were poisoned the first time. They died too early.
No one cared about the little spirit stones they had, so they could only blame themselves for their bad luck.
The Third Elder was still not interested in Zhang Yitian, and now that he was gone, he naturally wanted to go look for him.
Whether he is dead or ran away, an explanation must be given to the sect.
Otherwise, the sect leader would cause trouble for him. Although they both had the Jindan cultivation level, the third elder was only at the first level of the Jindan stage.
The leader of the Yin Gui Sect is already at the ninth level of the Golden Core Stage.
After leaving the Yin Gui Sect, the third elder took out something from his storage bag.
Muttering something, the thing moved in one direction, and the third elder followed behind it.
After a while, they arrived at the place where Zhang Yitian died, but there was nothing around and nothing unusual could be seen.
The third elder casually waved his palm towards the land in front of him, and soon two corpses appeared.
One of them was the dead Zhang Yitian. The third elder stepped forward to examine his body.
It was discovered that he had no obvious wounds and looked like he had committed suicide.
Could it be that he finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he ran out to assassinate Gao Huohuo, but when he missed, he committed suicide?
But no matter whether he committed suicide or was murdered, the cause of Zhang Yitian's death must be separated from him.
Only in this way can he continue to be valued by the sect leader. Otherwise, if this matter becomes a big deal, he will not be able to stay in the Yin Gui Sect.
But when he thought of the instigator of this incident, the third elder narrowed his eyes.
The little bit of admiration he originally had for Gao Huohuo has now turned into murderous intent.
If she hadn't caused this scene today, no one would care whether Zhang Yitian was dead or alive.
Now that everyone knows about it, the sect leader will definitely look for him.
Everyone in the Yin Gui Sect knew that the two of them had been together before.
Although Zhang Yitian was willing to do it out of seeking his help, a closer look revealed that he was the one who planned it first.
Gao Huohuo, who was targeted by the third elder again, was wondering who Li Erniu, the newcomer on her honor roll, was.
Judging from the energy bar, he should still be a Jindan cultivator, but isn’t this name a bit too casual?
When had she ever offended such a simple and unpretentious Jindan cultivator?
However, when Gao Huohuo thought about the fact that there were so many people on the Honor Roll, he felt that his current cultivation was a bit slow.
He took out the pills seized last time and swallowed them, then directly released all the people from the Yin Gui Sect on the list, allowing the one named Xiong Lu to have a night's rest.
With the addition of the Jindan cultivator, Gao Huohuo's previously injured dantian and meridians were completely restored in one night.
It seems that not only are the meridians now wider than before the injury, but the capacity of the dantian has also expanded.
In this way, Gao Huohuo's cultivation speed will only be faster than before.
When Gao Huohuo left the yard the next day, her cultivation had reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Stage.
However, the situation in the Yin Gui Sect's meeting hall early in the morning did not look good.
Li Si, the leader of the Yin Gui Sect, looked at the three corpses lying on the ground, the pale-faced Xiao Tai beside him, and the listless third elder sitting there.
“What on earth is going on?
How come everyone in my Yin Gui Sect is poisoned?
Could it be that there are other sects that want to take advantage of the opportunity to take down my Yin Gui Sect?
Did the Shadow Moon Sect do this?"
The Great Elder said, "Master, I heard from others that four people have been poisoned before, including the missing Zhang Yitian.
Now five more people have been poisoned, and all five of them are related to Zhang Yitian.
I think it was another sect that deliberately sent him to poison my Yin Gui Sect.
Now that the toxicity has spread, Zhang Yitian took the opportunity to escape.
Before leaving, he deliberately assassinated the Shadow Moon Sect's new disciple, hoping to take the opportunity to frame our Yin Gui Sect and provoke a conflict between the two sects."
When the leader of the Yin Gui Sect heard the analysis of the great elder, he felt that it made a lot of sense!
If Gao Huohuo knew that they would think this way, he would only think that the Great Elder of the Yin Gui Sect was actually an undercover agent of their Yingyue Sect!
In this way, the suspicion of the Shadow Moon Sect is ruled out. After all, Zhang Yitian has had several frictions with people from the Shadow Moon Sect.
Now it seems that Zhang Yitian deliberately provoked the conflict between their Yin Gui Sect and Ying Yue Sect from the very beginning.
He wanted the sect behind the scenes to take advantage of the opportunity and reap the benefits.
The third elder had to tell the story of how he found Zhang Yitian’s body yesterday.
As soon as these words were spoken, the Great Elder made a prompt decision. Zhang Yitian had been used up by the sect behind the scenes, and seeing that he had no value, they simply discarded him.
When the leader of the Yin Gui Sect heard this, he realized that this was indeed the case and felt that he had to find out who was behind it.
So he discussed with the elders below:
"There are only five of us small forces in this area now. Why don't we talk to the higher-ups and have the annual Foundation Establishment Pill Competition held earlier?
It just so happens that during the game, we can see which force is behind us?"
The third elder coughed and said weakly:
"Master, I'm afraid the person behind this just wants to see us and the Shadow Moon Sect slaughter each other. Should we inform the Shadow Moon Sect in advance?"
The leader of the Yin Gui Sect thought for a moment and felt that he had to inform in advance to avoid being attacked from both sides.
"You make a lot of sense. So, I'll write a letter first, and you can send it to the Shadow Moon Sect's leader, saying we have something to discuss."
When the members of the Shadow Moon Sect were about to go out on a mission early in the morning, they saw a letter left at the gate of their sect.
