The night is always darkest before dawn.
Qian Chao and the other five people followed Shen Weilie who was flying in front in the dark of night. In order to completely cover their eyes and ears, the five of them only relied on Li Jian's induction. Therefore, although the five of them were far behind Behind Shen Weiwei, they were falling steadily towards him. Not only that, the five of them also deliberately flew at a height close to the treetops. In this way, no one could see what was behind Shen Weiwei. Following five people, even Shen Wei at the front was never sure if anyone was following him.
Shen Wei was also uneasy in his heart. He knew that this time he came out, his former friend Li Lihua would probably take action against him, but he still had to act according to Qian Chao's plan. Although I had made up my mind before coming out, now that I have left the sect, the surrounding world is still a vast expanse of night, with the silent mountains at my feet. No one can be seen in front of me. It is so dark that I feel that the future is uncertain. It was quiet, gloomy and felt hairy in his heart. Shen Weiye was not sure whether he could return safely this time. From time to time, a strong uneasiness hit his heart, and then he suppressed it forcibly. .
But after all, he had cooperated with Qian Chao once, and that time Qian Chao gave him the impression that this person was very reliable. Although it was quiet behind him at this time, it was probably because Qian Chao and others were afraid of being alarmed and did not know where they were. Li Lihua, who is spying on him, has been hiding his figure, right? It makes sense to think this way. If you don't hide it from yourself, how can you hide it from the person who wants to kill you?
But thinking about it, Shen Weixie's anxiety could not be relieved even a little bit. He gritted his teeth and flew forward all the way, secretly praying that Qian Chao and others would catch up.
In the darkness, Li Jian sensed Shen Wei's occasional glances back, which Li Jian sensed. Li Jian was able to grasp Shen Wei's uneasy mood and couldn't help but smile.
Tang Ping thought of something and said softly: "Guess, is Mr. Shen in front of you afraid now?"
Yanxuan said: "How can we not be afraid? Although we are following him when he comes out this time, his life is in danger. Anyone else would be worried."
Li Jian said: "No matter what, Mr. Shen knows what might happen and still dares to come out. He can be considered a courageous person."
Just after saying this, Li Jian's expression suddenly tightened, and he said urgently:
"stop!"
Several people were confused after hearing what Li Jian said, but they all stopped and looked at Li Jian.
Li Jian looked ahead in the dark night, and then said:
"Quick, hide down there."
After saying that, Li Jian's figure was the first to fall.
Originally, they were flying close to the treetops and landed quickly. Later, Li Jian asked everyone to hide their figures through the surrounding trees. Not only that, with a few changes of Qian Chao's hand techniques, the hidden spirit array was silently arranged on the fifth floor. personal surroundings.
In the night sky overhead, there seemed to be the sound of someone's clothes ripping through the air while flying. After a while, Li Jian said:
"Let's go, that person is gone."
While continuing to chase Shen Wei, Tang Ping asked:
"Brother Li, was that person just passing by or following Shen Wei?"
"He must be following Shen Weiye," Li Jian said. "That man appeared several times near Shen Weiye. When he appeared at first, I didn't pay attention to him. I just thought he was passing by. But then I found him several times. Appearing in different directions, we are all cautious, probably because we are afraid of being discovered by Shen Weize. That time just now, we probably wanted to come back to see if anyone was following us, so we had to hide to avoid being discovered by him."
Qian Chao asked: "What kind of cultivation level does that person have?"
"Intermediate level cultivation, but in my opinion, the guy just now should not be Li Lihua. Didn't Brother Qian say that Li Lihua's cultivation level is the fifth level of Qi Refining? But the cultivation level of the guy just now should be the seventh level of Qi Refining layer, so..."
Qianchao Interface said:
"So there should be at least three people who are going to attack Shen Weilai this time. That Anshiqi is a high-level practitioner of Qi refining, so he shouldn't be the person just now, and the person just now is at the seventh level of cultivation, and If it’s not Li Lihua, then An Shiqi and Li Lihua might be waiting for Shen Wei on Yunxing Mountain, two middle-level people and one high-level person, which is one more person than we previously estimated.”
Lu Pingchuan said: "It doesn't matter how many come, they are all beatings anyway!"
Tang Ping said: "It wasn't Li Lihua who came to check just now. It was Li Lihua who was being watched by An Shiqi. Even if he wasn't afraid that Li Lihua would let Shen Wei go in the end, he was still trying to prevent Li Lihua from escaping. That's it. Come on, once Shen Wei dies, it's Li Li's turn to be transformed."
…
In the air, three figures gathered together.
It was Xi Kan, Xu Sheng and Ruo Rong, the three foundation-building monks. They were all ordered by their masters to secretly protect the five little guys Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan.
Because their respective masters had told them before coming here that they had to take action only when absolutely necessary, and it was best not to let the five children discover them, so the three of them were careful to hide themselves when following the five little guys. 's whereabouts. The night was no hindrance to the three of them. They watched the five little guys carefully keep a distance from Shen Weilie who was flying in front. Then they saw that they were very alert to avoid the detection of an unidentified Qi Refining disciple. He waited until the man flew far away before continuing to follow Shen Wei.
Xu Sheng smiled slightly and said to Ruoyuan next to him: "It's a bit interesting. It seems that this time, junior sister's arrangement has been put to use."
Xi Kan felt that it was always a bit boring to follow him like this, and he also said: "Nothing will happen to them all the way to Yunxing Mountain. It will be dawn after a while, and they will probably find us up there, and they will ask me How about we rush to Yunxing Mountain now, first look for the guy hiding there, see who he is, and then find a place to hide and wait for them?"
Ruoyun looked at the sky and saw that it was still dark, but it was almost dawn according to the time, so he asked: "How long will it take the junior sisters below to get to Yunxing Mountain from here?"
Xu Sheng made an estimate and replied: "It will take at least two hours for them to fly there like this. Once it gets dark, if Shen Wei finds any more spiritual herbs and delays for a while, it is estimated that the time to reach Yunxing Mountain will be longer." later."
After hearing this, Ruoyun said: "In that case, let's follow. It will take more than two hours. Master told us when we came out that we must keep an eye on them. If we go to Yunxing Mountain first and wait for two hours, who will Do you know if something will happen to them on the way? If it gets brighter, let’s just be more careful."
After hearing this, Xi Kan stopped insisting and said, "Yeah, that's fine."
…
The sky was dim, and the outlines of some mountains could be faintly seen in the east. At this time, there were two people standing on a high place on Yunxing Mountain. The direction they were looking at was exactly the direction Shen Wei was coming from.
These two people are Amshi Qi and Li Lihua.
Amuro Qi looked like a strong-bodied man in his thirties, while Li Lihua beside him still looked like a young man, a little thin, and his appearance was nothing out of the ordinary.
Li Lihua's mood at this time was somewhat similar to that of Shen Weiye who was rushing over. They were both anxious and uneasy. From time to time, he secretly glanced at An Shiqi who was standing next to him and observed the expression on Senior Brother An's face.
A few days ago, Amuro Qi discovered his interactions with Shen Wei. Initially, Amuro Qi didn't take it to heart. He just thought that they came out of Youming Valley together and had some friendship, but gradually he felt that something was wrong. He found that every time Li Lihua came out of Shen Weiye's place, he always smelled of alcohol, and he wondered if he would tell Shen Weiye something he shouldn't have said after drinking. After some questioning, Li Lihua reluctantly admitted that he had revealed a little about the senior brother to Shen Wei, but he immediately assured An Shiqi that that was all he said, and he also told An Shiqi Qi said that the reason why he went to find Shen Wei was because Shen Wei had a big enemy and that such a person might be used by that senior brother.
"Did he agree?" Amuro asked.
"No." Li Lihua replied murmuringly.
"Then did he ask about that senior brother again?" Amuro asked again.
"No, he never asked about it again." Li Lihua replied.
If ordinary disciples know about such a thing, even if they don't want to get involved, they will definitely ask for details out of curiosity. However, Shen Weizai never asked about this matter again, which made An Shiqi feel a little strange. .
"Did you tell him anything else?"
"No more, junior brother promises, I just had some friendship with Shen Weixie when we were in Youming Valley. Now that my cultivation is much higher than him, for the sake of our past friendship, I thought of giving him a hand, too. Firstly, the brotherhood is fulfilled, and secondly, the senior brother can also have an extra helper..."
Can that senior brother have one more helper? When An Shiqi heard Li Lihua say this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. When did that senior brother's assistant ask you, Li Lihua, to help choose? Even if you are not sure whether you can really become that senior brother's helper in the end, you are actually looking for helpers for that senior brother right now. What a joke!
"Junior Brother Li, it's your fault for not thinking carefully about this matter. You only care about preserving your brotherhood, but where do you put that senior brother? When I came to find you, I later brought you with me. When you went to see that senior brother, I told you not to tell anyone else about this matter, remember? You are like this..."
At that time, An Shiqi had not finished speaking. Li Lihua only felt a bone-chilling chill taking over his whole body. With a "pop" he knelt in front of An Shiqi and begged nervously and fearfully: "Senior Brother An, Junior Brother knows Wrong. I felt regretful when I said it in the first place. I have been secretly observing Shen Weizai to find out if he told others what I said to him. However, after watching him for so long, I didn’t find him telling anyone about this matter. go out……"
Although Anshiqi scolded Li Lihua for being stupid in his heart, he knew that he could not push this guy too hard at this time, otherwise things would turn against him. The two of them were in the sect at this time. If he was too impatient in front of him at this time, he would force him. Li Lihua was desperate and turned to the sect to report him. In that case, he would not be able to continue to gain a foothold in the Wuling Sect. Secondly, the senior brother would not be able to tolerate him. Therefore, although he already hated Li Lihua in his heart. Extremely, but the expression on his face did not fully show it. He only looked a little disappointed with Li Lihua.
"This matter is of great importance. Junior Brother Li, you should not put your own safety and the safety of that senior brother entirely on that friend of yours. Alas... you have thought about the brotherhood between you, but in the end , your friend is going to die because of you!"
For this, Li Lihua was already prepared in his heart. He had thought more than once about killing Shen Weixie outside while he was out. Therefore, when he heard this from An Shiqi's mouth, he was not very surprised. It was an accident, and I even regretted why I didn't take action earlier. If Shen Wei had been eliminated, how could something like this happen again? But the regret in his heart suddenly turned into a chill after he met Amuro Qi's gaze...
No matter how well An Shiqi concealed it, there was still a slight coldness in his eyes, which was discovered by the keen Li Lihua!
Thinking of the mystery of that senior brother, thinking of the things they condoned and instigated me to do outside the sect, and now that I have done something wrong, will these people really let me go?
And An Shiqi also realized something, and immediately restrained the murderous intent in his eyes, and said to Li Lihua as gently as possible: "Well, since I am your friend, then I won't take action, and you will do it, too. Let me see how you feel about that senior brother, but first, I want to watch you do this. If you do a good job, I will naturally suppress this matter and not mention it to that senior brother; second, I will watch you do this. Second, before taking action, no matter what method you use, you must ask clearly whether he has told others about this matter, so that it will be easier for us to take the next step, understand?"
It turned out that the murderous intent in Senior Brother An's eyes just now was directed at Shen Wei, and Li Lihua felt a little more relaxed. Regarding the two points he said, Li Lihua didn't dare to violate them, so he quickly agreed, and then The two of them discussed it and decided to take action without further delay, before the next one came out.
However, the things that frightened Li Lihua were still to come. After An Shiqi found out through means where Shen Wei was going to go out this time, and Li Lihua also followed him to the outside of the clan, he discovered that... After leaving the sect, someone rushed up to meet the two of them. Amuro Qi calmly ordered the person to follow Shen Wei as soon as he left the sect to see if there were other people following him and if there was anything unusual. Then tell him immediately.
In Li Lihua's original plan, this matter was done by him and Amshi Qi. When they got to a quiet and uninhabited place, he took action to restrain Shen Weizie first, and then used all means to question Shen Wei. Did Wei Wei leak the news? In the end, he killed Shen Wei Wei cleanly and neatly in front of An Shiqi. In this way, even if he could not please the senior brother An, it would also make him feel at ease and eliminate his suspicion. My own doubts, after that, it was as if this incident had never happened. I could still get the guidance of that senior brother in practice, and still live freely in the sect. Maybe after a few years, I could break through the barrier. Become a foundation-building monk.
But...why did Senior Brother An find another person to help him when he came out this time?
The fewer people who know about such a thing, the better!
Senior Brother An asked this unknown person to follow and monitor Shen Wei all the way, but he let himself follow him all the time. It seemed that... Senior Brother An had him under surveillance!
He was safe within the sect, but now he was outside the sect. In front of Senior Brother An, who had such a high level of cultivation, he could neither escape nor defeat him. How dare he say no.
Could it be that... this Senior Brother An has murderous intentions towards me?
Are you going to kill yourself and Shen Weijie outside the sect this time?
