Although Qian Chao was found, Jing Jie and others soon lost the trace of Qian Chao again. Moreover, this time Jing Jie watched helplessly as Qian Chao and others disappeared.
After Lu Pingchuan cleaned up the huge black monster and put it into his storage bag, Yanxuan also treated Li Jian's wounds, helped Li Jian put on his robe again, and then the five of them flew up. At the same time, they each threw out a shining sword, and then each stepped upward. As five streams of light flashed by, only the afterimages of five light traces were left in the air, and the five people had gone away, not even a trace of their backs. None can be seen.
Such speed shocked Jing Jie, and Jin Zhang and Tian Du were also dumbfounded.
"It is said that Qian Chao is good at refining weapons. I didn't believe it at first, but now I see that the rumors are true." Tian Du said, staring into the air.
Jin Zhang was also looking at the sky:
"No wonder it's hard to keep up with them, they're so fast."
Jing Jie was a little unhappy and said to his subordinates:
"Why are you standing still? Go chase him!"
Then those guys who worked for Jing Jie hurriedly chased in the direction where Qian Chao and others disappeared.
However, this was the only time they saw Qian Chao that day. Until sunset, when the night filled the sky, there was no trace of Qian Chao and others. They could not find them during the day, and there was no way to find them at night. The original plan was to The good plan to start at night had to be postponed. For this reason, Jing Jie was annoyed and couldn't help but get angry at his men again.
The next day, Jing Jie urged his men to continue looking for traces of Qian Chao and his men, and after noon, they found them again.
When Jing Jie and others rushed over to take a look, they found the five people in a valley. A large pit had been dug out at the bottom of the valley. There was only Qian Chao at the bottom of the pit, and the other four people were nearby. Watching, Jing Jie and others didn't know what Qian Chao had done when they arrived. They saw that the soil at the bottom of the pit was churning like boiling water. Every now and then, a big stone would emerge from the soil and fly up immediately. Qian Chao reached out to catch it and stuffed it into the storage bag.
"What are you doing?" Jin Zhang was a dandy. Naturally, he had never worried about his livelihood, so he was puzzled by Qian Chao's behavior.
"Probably..." Jing Jie looked down and said, "These are the people who came out to dig for ore. Didn't I say that guy Qian Chao is good at refining weapons? There must be ore."
Tian Du was not interested in those, he said:
"We can't let these people slip away this time."
"Do not worry."
But they were still disappointed. After Qian Chao was busy, the five people obviously wanted to go to the next place. Just when Jing Jie urged his men to follow closely, the five people flew away again, chasing them. Not as good as.
Jin Zhang said anxiously:
"This... I lost track of them again, how can I deal with them now!"
After watching it for two days, Tian Du's suspicions had mostly gone away. Now he only felt that the five people were just like ordinary Five Spirit disciples. They came out this time to get some spiritual herbs and ores. They were not Knowing that someone was going to deal with them, there was no way they could use any tricks. Those five people's quick actions were simply due to the convenience of the extremely fast-flying sword. They did not deliberately lure themselves, Jing Jie and others into a trap. , since I have lost them temporarily, I am not in a hurry. If I can find them twice, I can continue to find them a third time. I quickly stopped Jing Jie who was angry at his men and asked those people to hurry up and find them. It is best. If you can find the place where Qian Chao and the others stayed for the night, you can take action at night.
Unfortunately, it was still not found, and once night fell there was no way to continue searching.
On the third day, Jing Jie and others found the summary of Qian Chao and the five men again. This time it was at noon. They had searched for a long time in the direction where Qian Chao and the five men disappeared yesterday, but they still didn't find it. Jing Jie With their sharp noses, they could faintly smell the aroma of barbecue following the wind. The smell was somewhat familiar, so they followed the smell and quietly moved closer, and finally found them drinking wine around a fire on the top of a small hill. The five people eating meat saw the five people eating happily and joking with each other. Jing Jie felt that he was being played and was annoyed. But at this time, the three of them were not here, so he could only continue to wait and hope. I hope I can follow it smoothly this time, and then start at night.
As expected, after the five people had had enough wine and food, Jing Jie's men could barely keep up with them when they left, but then they could no longer find the five people.
And for the next few days, Jing Jie, Jin Zhang and Tian Du were running around outside like headless flies, but they could never find any trace of Qian Chao and the other five people.
…
In the past few days when Jing Jie, Jin Zhang and Tian Du were dealing with Qian Chao outside the Wuling Sect, there was a faint uneasy movement in the cultivation world.
Qizhou, this is the place where Qian Chao was born. In a place where Qian Chao, not to mention Qian Chao, even his father and grandfather have never been to, let alone heard of, lies the magnificent and huge courtyard of the Tian family. Group, this place is not much smaller than Wangjing, the country of Qi State. There are dense buildings, scattered palaces, and crisscross roads. The Tian family is extremely prosperous. People walking on the road are crowded together. The entire Tian family looks as lively as a big city. .
But in the past few days, bad news has been delivered one after another, directly reaching the ears of the Tian family's senior officials.
The Wuling Sect has inexplicably attacked many aristocratic families!
When the news first reached the ears of Tianjia's head, Tian Jiang, he hesitated for a while. At that time, he heard that only one head of the family was escorted back to the Five Spirits Sect. The Tian family's workers had a conflict for some unknown reason when the Five Spirit Sect's alchemy monks came to visit. After Tian Jiang heard the news, he blamed the head of that family for not knowing how to do things. How could he openly argue with the Five Spirit Sect now? Right, but then he kept getting news. Only then did he know that many aristocratic families that the Tian family secretly attracted had suffered like this. Not only was the head of the family brought into the Five Spirits Sect, but even that aristocratic family was temporarily taken over by the Five Spirits Sect. The monks of the sect took over.
Tian Jiang did two things at the same time. The first was to send people to the aristocratic families who had the accident to inquire about the news. But the news came back immediately. Not only the heads of those aristocratic families were taken to the Wuling Sect, but also their families were also arrested. They were surrounded by many Danjie monks from the Five Spirit Sect. This time, the Wuling Sect sent out Danjie monks with advanced cultivation and outstanding methods. They were closely guarded. Those aristocratic families were like iron barrels, and outsiders could not get in. , the people inside can’t come out, so no news can be asked;
The second is to immediately send people to Ruixuan Town, Xiangxuan Town, Fuxuan Town and Jixuan Town outside Wuling Sect to inquire about the news. There are still Tian family’s eyes and ears there, but those who went out hurried back. The report said that the Tian family’s eyes and ears in those four towns had no idea what was going on, but one thing they found out was that not long ago, Tian Jiang’s son, Tian Du, who was left behind in the Wuling Sect, passed through them. He went outside and dispatched a lot of manpower to enter the Five Spirits Sect, and the heads of the aristocratic families who had been mobilized by Tian Du... were all brought into the Five Spirits Sect without exception!
Of course, they also found out that the people who had recently sneaked into the Five Spirits Sect were not only sent by Mr. Tian Du. In addition, there were also a large number of good players who had sneaked into the Five Spirits Sect. It seemed that something was about to happen. But the eyes and ears in the four towns have obviously sent people back to the Tian family to report the news. Didn't the family receive the news?
After hearing the news, Tian Jiang's vision went dark, he was so angry that he almost fainted, and cursed the fool in his heart. He knew that Tian Du would definitely take action against Qian Chao in order to make meritorious deeds, but he didn't expect that his son would be so impatient, so he decided to join the Five Spirits Sect. How long have you been here before you are so eager to get rid of the money tide?
If it was that simple, why would the Tian family have gone already?
Why not think long term and plan carefully?
What happened to him in the Wuling Sect that made him so anxious to attack Qian Chao?
There are also those other people who have sneaked into the Five Spirits Sect. Did Tian Du find someone else to cooperate?
How could you join forces with others on something so confidential?
fool!
It must be that he was not secretive and was noticed by others. This was even a trap set by the Wuling Sect for the Tian family. He was just waiting for Tian Du to jump into it without knowing his life or death. He went to the four towns outside the Wuling Sect to deliver the news to the Tian family. Even if they can't be sent back, what does this mean? It means that Tian Du's actions have been under the surveillance of the Wuling Sect from the beginning. He deliberately asked Tian Du to send people in, and then caught the turtle in the jar. In the end, Tian Du and he will definitely be sent in. Everyone is caught. Under such a situation, the Tian family cannot argue, and the Wuling Sect can use this matter to severely suppress the Tian family!
Do you want to take action?
This idea was quickly dismissed by Tian Jiang after it arose. Although the Tian family is now powerful, it has completely fallen out with the Five Spirits Sect and wants to openly fight against it... Almost all the top leaders of the Tian family will not agree.
How many years has the Tian family endured and how many generations have they managed to get to where they are today step by step? In order to fulfill the wishes set by their ancestors, we must not act too hastily, and the most important thing is that the Tian family is not ready yet, not only because of their strength. There is still a big gap. The most important thing is that Qian Chao is still there, the Qian family is also there, and there is still a Yuan Qian family's jade plaque in Qizhou. As long as this thing is still there, when the Wuling Sect takes action against the Tian family, The other five sects in the world cannot interfere with this. Of course, not all of the five major sects secretly support them. What the Tian family has received is the promise of Muyang Sect, Shizilin and Meng Cailou. As long as the Tian family cleans up all future troubles, the Tian family will leave. They would definitely support the Five Spirits Sect, but now is obviously not the time. If they really take action, the Tian family will have to fight alone against the powerful Five Spirits Sect. The result will inevitably be that the big trees will fall and the hozens will be scattered. Even if they can bring help to the Five Spirits Sect, It would be a big loss, but it would only benefit the three sects and would not be of any benefit to the Tian family. Therefore, Tian Jiang did not dare to take any action against the Wuling Sect's actions at this time.
Of course, I dare not make any moves on the surface, but there are small moves in the dark.
Sent the capable personnel of the Tian family to test and harass the Five Spirit monks who have temporarily taken over those families. As long as they hide their identities and do it secretly, even if the other party knows that it is the Tian family, the Five Spirits Sect will have nothing to do if they want to come. If those Five Spirits cultivators are not strong enough, then they should simply take back a few families who are devoted to the Tian family. Otherwise, if the Five Spirits Sect is allowed to do this, it will be difficult for the Tian family to infiltrate power elsewhere in the future.
After discussing with the elders of the Tian family, Tian Jiang sent out several capable personnel, but they all came back in vain. The news they received made Tian Jiang feel chilling...
I don't know when a powerful force was hidden outside Qizhou. The people sent by the Tian family were intercepted one after another, or their identities were directly revealed so that they could do their own thing, or they were beaten back directly. While listening to what those people said, Jiang was mentally calculating the number of people on the other side. Only then was he surprised to find that while the Wuling Sect was dealing with those aristocratic families this time, they actually put most of their manpower on keeping an eye on the Tian family. Hundreds of pill-forming monks gathered together. Looking at the world, only the Muyang Sect and the Wuling Sect were probably so generous. However, those people did nothing and only watched the movements of the Tian family secretly. This was clearly the case. Warn the Tian family not to act rashly!
The Tian family has the strength to repel the hundreds of Five Spirit Pill Formation monks, but even if a real fight begins, it is definitely not feasible. But Tian Jiang also saw that the Wuling Sect did not want to completely break up with the Tian family at this time. What they were doing was to weaken the Tian family step by step.
Later, Tian Jiang received news that it was at the junction of Wuling Sect and Muyang Sect. It was quite tense to come in. Muyang Sect provoked frequently, and there were many fights at the border. , the people of the Wuling Sect refused to give in an inch, and were extremely tough. Later, for some unknown reason, all the Muyang Sect's men retreated at once, and peace returned to the border area. I guess it was because Muyang Sect could not take advantage of it. Then he had to retreat.
It seems that the Wuling Sect has made comprehensive arrangements for this matter, and it can be said that it has taken everything into consideration. However, even if they have figured this out, the Tian family has nothing to do about the Wuling Sect's actions. Tian Jiang can only wait in anger and uneasiness.
…
A few days later, Jing Jie and others finally found where Qian Chao and the five people had gone.
It was his men who sent back the news that Qian Chao and others had appeared in Ruixuan Town.
"What were they doing in Ruixuan Town?" Jing Jie asked angrily.
"Uh... I didn't do anything. I walked around the street and looked at the things sold by casual cultivators. Qian Chao also went to a tea shop to drink tea and play chess. Later, he stayed in Buyan'ao's shop for a while. , spent two nights drinking at Song Feng Tower, and now they are on their way back to the sect." His subordinates replied.
Qian Chao has not been found in the past few days, and in a few days it will be the day of the hundred-year tribute. As soon as the hundred-year tribute is over, Jin Zhang will return to the Lion Forest, so that he will never have the chance to get this stunning beauty Yan Xuan. There are also excellent maids, human puppets and sword slaves, which means that Jing Jie will make a lot of money less. Therefore, not only Jin Zhang is anxious, but Jing Jie is also anxious, and Tian Du also intends to let Jin Zhang's People were helping him kill Qian Chao, so he was a little anxious.
Now that we finally have news about those five people, we are determined not to lose them this time.
But soon they discovered that they seemed to have done everything they had to do when they came out this time. When Qian Chao and the five people returned to the sect, they were not as lively as when they first came out. They seemed leisurely and comfortable all the way back. Taking their time, the woman Yanxuan found one or two spiritual grasses to pick from time to time, so this time they followed Qian Chao and others closely.
until night.
In the evening, Jing Jie's men hurried over and told Qian Chao and the five others that they had found a secret cave to live in, not far ahead, on a cliff.
Jing Jie looked at the sky and saw that it was already dusk. He turned to Jin Zhang and Tian Du and said:
"How about tonight?"
"Okay!" Tian Du said.
Jin Zhang said anxiously:
"It's long past time to take action!"
At night, the waning moon is like a hook, and the sky is filled with stars.
Jing Jie called his capable men and said:
"Go ahead and gather all the people!"
"yes!"
