After Mu Qing decided to stop Lu Tai's plan, he began to make preparations.

The key step is to find some trustworthy helpers among the top ten.

But subsequent developments began to deviate from his expectations.

Ni Xiuyun involved Zhou Yun, and Jian Wenxuan tested out Elder Cangjian.

He only selected three people, but two of them had problems with their division commanders.

Therefore, when he met the three people, he had already decided not to expose Fang Jun's information.

But things developed unexpectedly again, and both Su Wuming and Zhou Shuang seemed to have become abandoned sons.

In the square of Shengyuan Mountain, Mu Qing sat cross-legged in front of the stone statue with a solemn expression.

Xichuan and Fang Jun were standing beside him.

At a certain moment, Mu Qing frowned suddenly, and ripples of spiritual consciousness spread out from the center of his eyebrows. After meeting the stone statue again, Fang Jun immediately formed a seal and absorbed Mu Qing's spiritual consciousness.

Xichuan walked up to Mu Qing and put his fingers between his eyebrows to help him keep his mind in the alternation of illusions.

"who is it?"

In the illusion, Lu Manqing, who was standing in front of a handful of bamboos, suddenly turned around. When he saw Mu Qing, the expression on his face was particularly wonderful, "Why did you appear in my illusion?"

Mu Qing glanced at the Sword Cottage behind the bamboo forest. Lu Manqing was the first of the four to climb to the top, but he would not learn the Sword Scripture tomorrow, which at least proved that Lu Tai cared about this apprentice.

Mu Qing explained to Lu Manqing the special features of the Shengyuan Mountain Peak. Lu Manqing asked, "What do you need to do if you want to go back in time?"

Mu Qing handed the sword embryo to Lu Manqing and said, "Just take this thing into the sword house."

Lu Manqing was surprised: "How can the true spirit enter its own little world?"

Mu Qing explained: "This is just a contract mark."

Lu Manqing raised his head and glanced at Mu Qing, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I will never tell this matter."

"Even Sect Master Lu?" Mu Qing asked with a smile.

Lu Manqing said: "You seem to have misunderstood Master, but don't worry, I will not break my promise."

Mu Qing said meaningfully: "Be prepared to take this sword embryo into the sword house."

"Um."

Fang Jun has become one of his own. When Lu Manqing walked into the sword house holding the sword embryo, scenes began to appear in front of Lu Manqing.

Finally, she faced Jian Shengyuan and accepted his inheritance.

When everything was over, she turned around and saw Mu Qing behind her. She calmed down a little and looked down at her empty hands, feeling a little surprised.

Mu Qing asked: "Are you wondering why there is no Sword Sutra?"

Lu Manqing closed his eyes, shook his head and said, "No, I was wondering why Patriarch Baishou got the Sword Scripture. When I chose to accept the inheritance of the Sword Master, the past between him and the Taoist companion became extremely clear, whether it was skills or moves. I can see it all clearly, I think it is much clearer than what I understood in the Sword Sutra..."

Mu Qing shook his head: "Getting to the top from the Sword Asking Platform tests the sword cultivator's actual combat ability, while comprehending the Sword Scripture tests the sword cultivator's talent. Although they both have different emphases, they reach the same goal through different paths."

Lu Manqing guessed: "Could it trigger such a special scene in the end?"

Mu Qing nodded: "With your talent in swordsmanship, if you go to study the Sword Scripture tomorrow, you will actually have a similar experience. The only difference is in the end."

Lu Manqing's lips moved, and after a while she said with complicated emotions: "For some reason, I think you know these secrets of the Sword Sect better than I do."

Mu Qingxin said where did she go now, smiled slightly, tried her best to keep the atmosphere from getting too tense, and said: "I have been exposed to the Sword Sutra and the Soldier-Zhanbing Sword yesterday, and now I am in the game. After careful consideration, I decided to I have something to tell you."

Lu Manqing said curiously: "Just tell me quickly, I have a lot of tolerance in my heart."

Mu Qing nodded and pointed at Lu Manqing's eyebrows. Lu Manqing hesitated for a moment and did not avoid it.

The next moment, the scene in front of the two people changed again. The sky was filled with wind and snow, and three people were passing by with swords in front of them.

"This is…

…”

"Beihuang, the three of them are Fu Xinghe, Fang Qingxue, and Bai Lu."

Suddenly, the perspective of the screen changed, and several sword energy burst out, instantly bringing up several pillars of blood. The screen began to sink rapidly, leaving only Fu Xinghe and Fang Qingxue standing in the air. The person who took action was Fu Xinghe.

When Lu Manqing saw this, he turned to look at Mu Qing, but the picture changed again.

She saw Ni Xiuyun quietly leaving the sect and meeting Zhou Yun...

I saw Fang Qingxue and Fu Xinghe being quite close, I saw Fang Qingxue appearing at Jinglan Peak, and I also saw Fang Qingxue appearing in the main hall of Wuji Peak with a serious injury, blaming Fu Xinghe with her dying body——

After each scene started, Mu Qing would tell the story of how he learned about what happened in the scene.

Taken individually, these images are not coherent, but when viewed together in chronological order, anyone with a discerning eye can understand what Mu Qing wants to express.

When all the scenes disappeared, Lu Manqing narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Qing, "You should have learned about the old events a hundred years ago from Elder He, right? Have you been investigating this matter during this time?"

Mu Qing said: "You think too highly of me. Without Bai Lu and Jian Wenxuan, I would not have known that this thing existed."

Lu Manqing frowned and said, "Can I tell Master about this? Ni Xiuyun colluded..."

Mu Qing asked, "Why does Bailu hide his identity?"

"Jian asked Xuan why she wanted to find me?"

Lu Manqing: "..."

Mu Qing said: "If the cause and effect of this incident only falls on Ni Xiuyun, then he should be the sect leader."

Lu Manqing stared at Mu Qing in shock, "Are you doubting my master? Didn't Fu Xinghe and Ni Xiuyun betray the Sword Sect?"

Mu Qing shook his head: "Fu Xinghe was wrongly accused, and Ni Xiuyun was working for Sect Master Lu."

Lu Manqing shook his head and said, "Absolutely impossible."

Mu Qing said: "Before I came back, Jian Wenxuan went to find Elder Zangjian, but now she has disappeared."

"Elder Zangjian clearly knew that there was something wrong with this matter, but he chose to hide it for Sect Master Lu."

Lu Manqing laughed angrily: "Just because my master became the sect master, he is the murderer behind the scenes? Just based on the evidence you have, it is Fu Xinghe and Ni Xiuyun's problem anyway."

"Now that you have found Ni Xiuyun, why don't you let me see whose orders he is taking, instead of slandering him like this?"

Mu Qing shook his head and said, "Because Ni Xiuyun is a sword puppet. He can only be regarded as an accomplice at best, and that's the case. Even he himself doesn't know who he is working for. Naturally, I can't show his memory."

"Sword puppet?" Lu Manqing frowned.

Mu Qing sighed softly: "The murderer behind the scenes is not one person. Although I have not found any evidence of Sect Leader Lu, I can already confirm that there is a ghost hidden in the sword tomb..."...

Although he had only been in Jianzong for a few days, Mu Qing knew most of the Jianzong better about Zhanbingjian.

When Mu Qing told Lu Manqing about Fang Jun's existence, Lu Manqing frowned and stopped talking.

Mu Qing said: "Ni Xiuyun is at Evergreen Peak, and the sword puppet mark on his body is the biggest evidence."

Lu Manqing still refused to believe it and said, "Even so, it only proves that the real culprit behind the scenes is this sword ghost."

Mu Qing couldn't bear it, and said slowly: "The deeper you understand the Sword Sutra, the easier it is to be affected by the Sword Cutting Sword. Sect Master Lu and Elder Cangjian are the people who have the deepest understanding of it besides Sect Master Bai."

"In other words, Sect Leader Lu and Elder Zangjian know about the existence of Sword Demon."

"That sword ghost pretended to be Sect Master Lu just to confuse the situation, but in the end it was Sect Master Lu who benefited. And Elder Zangjian, as the peak master of Jinglan Peak, has been covering up for Sword Demon. All three of them are murderers."

Lu Manqing was silent for a longer time and said, "Maybe the master was influenced by the sword ghost and acted like this."

Mu Qing no longer insisted this time and nodded gently: "I hope so."

Lu Manqing asked, "If Senior Sister Jian has been trapped by Elder Zangjian, then you have also been exposed. Why doesn't Master take action against you?"

Mu Qing was also puzzled by Lu Tai's reaction and could only guess: "Perhaps he just guessed that you would not easily believe an outsider like me. If he attacks me, it will actually be evidence of his crime."

Lu Manqing shook his head: "Master is the sect leader of the entire Wuji Sect, and with the support of Elder Zangjian, there is no way he would care about this."

Mu Qing sighed helplessly: "Perhaps Sect Leader Lu thinks we can't change anything?"

"I know you still have expectations for him. If all this was done by the Sword Demon, then why did he choose to accept it afterwards? The situation a hundred years ago should have been better than it is today?"

"But what is he doing now? Taking advantage of the opportunity of meditating on the Sword Sutra, he is helping the Sword Demon achieve his perfect state."

Lu Manqing was horrified, and only then did he see the whole thing in his eyes, and said, "That's why you asked Wuming and the others to come here."

"Yes." Mu Qing said calmly: "This is just a clone of my consciousness. When I communicate with you, they are also experiencing this."

In the sword test square, Mu Qing opened his eyes, feeling a little tired.

Fang Jun gloated and said with a smile, "You're asking for trouble."

Xichuan retracted his hand and said, "They experienced an illusion. They should be able to wake up after experiencing it again tomorrow. However, without me helping you, it will be difficult not to be discovered by that sword ghost.

Mu Qing exhaled a breath: "I just need to destroy the ritual and force the sword ghost to show up."

"The only evidence we have now is that the Sword Demon didn't show up, otherwise the real murderer would have fallen on Ni Xiuyun and Zhou Yun."

Xichuan said: "I carefully searched Zhou Shuang's memory and found that she did not know what her aunt did, but the relationship between her aunt and nephew is very good, so Zhou Yun probably did not know about Lu Tai's plan."

"Although they were accomplices a hundred years ago, Zhou Yun has been excluded from what will happen tomorrow."

Mu Qing thought thoughtfully: "Jian Wenxuan has disappeared for so long and they haven't responded yet. Could it be that Elder Zangjian also covered up this matter for us?"

Xichuan said: "It is possible. They all have their own purposes and are not monolithic."

Fang Jun snorted lightly: "People's hearts are complicated. If a person can even deceive himself, it's strange that outsiders can accurately guess his thoughts. You don't have to guess what they are thinking, but see what they are doing."

Hearing this, Mu Qing became even more helpless: "Whatever you look at, Lu Tai is still an impeccable person."

Ripples began to appear on the stone statue, and Lu Manqing and the four were about to escape from the illusion.

Mu Qing stood up and said, "To be cautious, please ask Brother Xichuan to take action."

Xichuan nodded, "Don't worry, I have sealed the memories of the three of them after meeting the Sword Master. But for Lu Manqing, you have to remind her not to expose her."

Mu Qing nodded: "I believe she also wants to know the truth."
