At this time, Deacon Gu, Deacon Chen, Deacon Bai and several other deacons also came over. Seeing this scene, the deacons immediately dispersed all the disciples watching the excitement, leaving only Zhou Tu and Ning Yu. a party.
"It's demonic magic again!" Deacon Gu said with a frown.
"Search his body first to see if we can find any clues?" Deacon Chen said.
So, several deacons immediately took action, but after a search, they found that there was nothing on the other party, the Qiankun bag was empty, and no clues could be found.
Seeing this, Qin Tianxue frowned, thought about it seriously, and said, "Get rid of the body first! Otherwise, the poisonous insects will spread to the surrounding disciples!"
Deacon Gu nodded and cast a spell, completely freezing Yun Duanshan's body.
"The competition will continue, but please keep a close eye on it, deacons, and don't let this happen again!" Qin Tianxue said seriously.
"Don't worry Tianxue! What happened just now happened suddenly, but it will definitely not happen again!" Deacon Gu replied.
Qin Tianxue nodded, and then said to Zhou Tu: "Junior brother Zhou, when will you come on stage next?"
"I was on the 39th, and I had a bye, but now that Yun Duanshan is dead, does his opponent want to compete with me?" Zhou Tu asked immediately.
"No! Both you and Yun Duanshan's opponents have byes. This is not a competition for the top ten anyway. It doesn't matter if you have one less or more." Deacon Gu replied.
"Okay, Junior Brother Zhou, come with me now." Qin Tianxue said, then led Zhou Tu away from the crowd.
After a while, Qin Tianxue took Zhou Tu to an open space on the mountain. There was no one around. She simply set up a soundproof formation, and then asked: "Junior Brother Zhou, what do you think of what just happened?"
"Yun Duanshan was captured by mistake, and the poisonous insects on his body immediately broke out. He must be a member of the devil's path!" Zhou Tu replied immediately.
"Yes! But he hid it well, but suddenly he wanted to attack Ning Yu forcefully even if his identity was exposed. Why do you think he did this?" Qin Tianxue asked again.
Hearing this, Zhou Tu immediately knew that Qin Tianxue should already have the answer in his heart. There must be some reason for asking him this deliberately, so he didn't think too much and immediately replied: "It should be that Ning Yu and I exposed what happened to Deacon Zheng. Yes, Deacon Zheng has a grudge against me and Ning Yu, so he specially sent someone here to kill Ning Yu!"
Qin Tianxue nodded, and then said: "I guessed the same as you, if it was really Deacon Zheng who instigated it, then someone should also attack you!"
"Sister Qin, do you mean to tell me to be more careful?" Zhou Tu asked.
"Being cautious is just one aspect. I originally didn't want you to get involved in this matter prematurely, because your cultivation level is too low, and this kind of thing is too dangerous for you. But now, Deacon Zheng, no, should be a demon. Over there, they may have already targeted you..." Qin Tianxue said regretfully, looking at Zhou Tu with a hint of apology.
Seeing this, Zhou Tu immediately understood that because the news was exposed, Deacon Zheng was now planning to kill him. Even if he did nothing next, he was already involved in this matter! Qin Tianxue didn't want him to be in danger, but he was already in danger now!
"Senior Sister Qin, if you want me to do anything, just ask me!" Zhou Tu said immediately. It was about his own life and safety, and he didn't dare to be careless at all!
"I'm going to secretly investigate a few more suspicious disciples, and I need to use your sword power!" Qin Tianxue replied.
"No problem! When?" Zhou Tu asked.
"When today's competition is over, I will call those disciples to the Treasure Pavilion. You can just wait for me in the pavilion!"
…
When Zhou Tu returned to the Dharma Discussion Stage, the competition on the stage had come to an end.
"Next game, No. 37 vs. No. 38!" Deacon He shouted loudly.
The two disciples quickly came on stage. This was the last competition. Zhou Tu was on the 39th, but there was no one on the 40th, so he got a bye in the next round and entered the top 20 directly.
Returning to where he was just now, Zhou Tu found that Ning Yu was surrounded by a large number of people.
"I didn't expect that Yun Duanshan was actually a secret agent placed by the Demonic Dao in the outer sect! I said that his cultivation has reached the fourth level of Qi training, but why has he never been able to complete any of the assessments! It turns out that he is worried about the inner sect's Taoist oath and dare not enter the inner sect!"
"The demonic path is so rampant now! How dare you attack our disciples in the Qingyang Sect in public!"
"Junior sister Ning Yu, were you okay just now? From now on, I will always be by your side. I want to see who else dares to sneak attack you!"
Listening to these voices, Zhou Tu immediately saw Nangong Cheng, Wu Yong and others in the crowd, and even Bai Yedong and Zhang Yuan came here. Apparently, what happened at Yun Duan Mountain just now attracted most people's attention. , in contrast, there are not many people who are actually watching the competition.
As soon as Zhou Tu arrived here, he immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding disciples. Although he had fought with Yun Duanshan so quickly that few disciples had seen him, but when he was later taken for questioning by Qin Tianxue, few people knew about it!
"Junior Brother Zhou!" Bai Yedong immediately came over to say hello.
"Senior Brother Bai." Zhou Tu nodded in response.
"I wonder what happened just now?" Bai Yedong asked immediately. He had already heard some information from his father, Deacon Bai, but it was not too detailed. Ning Yu was also attracted by Nangong Cheng and Wu Yong. It was hard for him to ask anything around, but now that Zhou Tu was here, it was just right.
"Yun Duanshan suddenly attacked Ning Yu..."
Zhou Tu briefly explained what had just happened.
At this time, the battle in the ring had just ended.
"Number 38 wins, and number 39 gets a bye in the next game!" Deacon He shouted immediately, and then took out the box for drawing lots, "All the winning disciples come up to draw lots. After drawing lots, rest for half an hour, and then The competition continues!"
So, all twenty disciples, including Zhou Tu, went up to draw lots.
The drawing ended soon, and Zhou Tu drew number six this time, which was the third battle.
During the half hour of rest, many disciples came to Zhou Tu to ask about what had just happened. Zhou Tu answered normally at first, but later there were too many people asking, which made him feel overwhelmed, so he simply left the discussion. He found a quiet place to stay on the stage, and prepared to wait for half an hour before going to the Dharma Discussion Stage.
"Junior Brother Zhou." At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Zhou Tu turned around and found Zhao Yu'er walking over from a distance.
Zhou Tu suddenly became more vigilant. Although Zhao Yuer and Yun Duanshan had no intersection, they were both outer sect disciples at the fourth level of Qi training, and both had failed assessment tasks many times! Now there is a problem in Yun Duan Mountain. Who knows if Zhao Yu'er has the same problem? Qin Tianxue just said that he wanted to investigate several suspicious disciples, and Zhao Yu'er was definitely one of them!
"Senior Sister Zhao, what's the matter?" Zhou Tu asked calmly.
"I didn't expect that Senior Brother Yun would actually collude with the devil. Junior Brother Zhou, were you and Junior Sister Ning Yu not injured just now?" Zhao Yu'er said with a concerned look.
"Yun Duanshan colluded with the devil, and you still call him senior brother?" Zhou Tu asked with a frown.
"Indeed! If you collude with the devil, you can no longer be a disciple of our sect! I forgot to change my words just now, and I hope Junior Brother Zhou can forgive me." Zhao Yu'er replied while continuing to walk towards Zhou Tu.
Zhou Tu's face suddenly turned cold, and his tone was full of warning: "If you take another step closer, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!"
