After receiving a positive reply, Tao Zi and Cheng Wuchou's expressions changed.
Yue Qingya whispered: "This elder was exposed because he was too concerned about the Sword Mountain Formation."
Tao Zi immediately understood what he was thinking and looked in the direction of the formation: "The things in Sword Mountain are worth sacrificing an undercover agent in the out-of-body period?"
Cheng Wuchou touched his chin and asked doubtfully, "Isn't the best thing among them the immortal weapons? But the immortal weapons are not worth the sacrifice they have to make."
She lowered her eyes and glanced at her storage ring quietly.
Two quarters of an hour ago, inside the formation
Five or six "people" circled around Sword Mountain, but they still couldn't find the artifact.
The "elder" of the Sword Sect looked at his empty-handed companion and said coldly: "I risk exposure this time and I can't get nothing."
Another person said: "Let's look for it again. Judging from the news, it should be here."
The "elder" of the Sword Sect held a necklace made of special material in his hand and searched around Jianshan Mountain again, but still found nothing.
The "elder" frowned and said: "According to what that person said, once the divine sword senses the key, it will react. But now there is no movement. Is it possible that the divine sword is really not here?"
"I told you a long time ago that she is from the Xuanyue Royal Family and has a blood feud with a foreign clan. She is unreliable. You must believe her words."
While complaining, the formation suddenly changed, and the "elder" changed his expression and said, "It's been discovered."
It took advantage of the moment before the formation was completely closed to transmit the necklace back to the original owner.
At this time, the leader of the Sword Sect also appeared in front of them, and a crushing massacre began.
The fake demons also received the news and began to flee, no longer preparing to deal with the aliens.
Yue Qingya prepared to fight and whispered: "Tao Zi, do you want to stay or leave?"
"Leave, my presence here is too suspicious."
Cheng Wuchou said: "When I stayed, I just said that I sensed something was wrong and came here to help."
The three of them split up.
Tao Zi took Xi Jing back to the banquet.
"Miss Tao."
To her surprise, Fellow Daoist Yuan actually greeted her, since neither of them spoke during the entire competition.
Tao Zi nodded slightly and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuan, why don't you see Friend Daoist Yan?"
He explained: "Something happened to Cheng Yimen and he did not participate in this competition."
She said: "That's it."
"By the way, why don't you see Cheng Zhenjun?"
Doubts also appeared in Tao Zi's eyes: "Just now Cheng Zhenjun suddenly said that something happened and asked me to go back to a crowded place. He didn't know where he went."
Fellow Daoist Yuan understood immediately and said, "That's it."
Xu Qianjia also noticed that something was wrong. There were a lot of people missing from the banquet. For example, among the three sects and four sects, only the Jindan period and above monks were left in the Xujia sect and Minglan sect.
He and the young master of the Xujia Sect looked at each other, and they both stood up, but were stopped by the elder of the Jian Sect: "Two of you, what's the matter?"
Cheng Luo, the young master of the Xujia Clan, said with a carefree smile: "The banquet is a bit boring. Qianjia and I will go out for a walk."
The elder looked solemn and said: "You two probably don't know that just now, aliens invaded the Sword Sect. We were ordered to stay here to protect the monks. I hope you can help us."
These sudden words made the whole banquet lively, and many people stood up and looked at the elder.
He continued: "The incident happened suddenly, and we were not sure at first. Now, any monk who leaves early may be corrupted by aliens."
Someone slapped the table and stood up, saying: "The alien race is our common enemy, how can we sit here and remain still?"
Xu Qianjia also said: "This is reasonable."
Many people stood up and begged to resist the enemy, and some even had their swords unsheathed, each one more excited than the other.
But in the end, they were all rejected because they had enough manpower.
Amid everyone's discussions and dissatisfaction, Lan Yongji said: "Speaking of which, it seems that Fellow Taoist Tao has just returned?"
Xu Qianjia cursed in his heart, this kind of gossiping thing is only suitable for casual discussion after the banquet. Isn't it stupid to bring it up in person?
Tao Zi's smile did not change, and she said slowly: "I have not seen any foreigners along the way. If you don't believe me, I can wait here for the sect leader to check. If Fellow Daoist Lan is really worried, you can tie me up."
This elegant and generous appearance convinced many people, and combined with what happened before, many people looked at Minglan Zong with complicated eyes.
Xu Qianjia put aside the foreign affairs for the time being and said calmly: "Fellow Tao Tao, I'm really sorry. My junior brother speaks more frankly."
Tao Zi smiled and said: "No, it's just hard work for Master Xu to teach his junior brother."
Before he could reply, she looked at the elder and said, "Speaking of which, the young master of your sect, Master Qian, Master Qiu, and Lord Yue seem to be missing?"
"Yes, they sensed something was wrong and went to meet the enemy. It's thanks to Master Xu and Master Cheng that they are here to help."
As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that these two people were kept in the dark, and some people's eyes became even more wrong.
Tao Zi did not retreat to her seat, but came to Xi Jing and Han Yueshan and ate snacks leisurely.
Li Xiu glanced at her several times, and she slowly crushed a piece of snack.
Lixiu:......
He just wanted to say something, right?
Tao Zi said: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
He didn't look fair and square, with an expression of guilty conscience, which was noticed by many people around him.
When did Li Xiu's brain stop working?
He whispered: "Did Mr. Cheng Zhen leave any words?"
Tao Zi said helplessly: "We are told to come back and stay in a crowded place, and not to wander around."
Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that it was her.
She was even more helpless.
After half an hour, many people could not sit still and asked the elders for news.
The elder said calmly: "Of course nothing will happen. Please rest assured and wait patiently here."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone stumbled over and said, "Oh no, some aliens have come to the city, and many mortals have suffered!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and many people were about to rush out with weapons.
Tao Zi smashed the wine cup, everyone was shocked, and the elder scolded: "What a mess, the Sword Sect has made arrangements, this is absolutely impossible."
The man fell to the ground, his body covered with blood, and said angrily: "Are you just ignoring the lives of those mortals?"
Before he finished speaking, someone rushed out, and at the same time, broken glass pierced the man's throat.
"Tao Zi, what are you doing!"
Someone wanted to intercept, but it was too late. The man lost his breath in front of them, and before he could get angry, he turned into a skeleton.
Tao Zi said coldly: "Open your eyes and see if he is a Taoist cultivator."
