"Great Elder, according to the monks on some surrounding islands and the patrols of the Bishui Palace, they all saw the third elder, the fourth elder, ten guardians, and thirty-eight stewards flying over the sea on auspicious clouds.
However, when they flew over the sea area, a heavy fog suddenly appeared in the sea, and then they all felt a strong wave of fighting aura, but the whole process was very short. When the fog dissipated, the third elder and the others disappeared. "A short and fat protector came forward and bowed to Hou Li and told him, his eyes unable to hide the fear in his heart.
"Are they sure they saw the third elder, fourth elder, ten guardians, and thirty-eight stewards together?" Hou Li's face became extremely solemn when he heard this.
If Tu Xun and Murong Min were not together but were killed in two separate places, Hou Li believed that he could do it with his own cultivation.
But if Tu Xun and Murong Min were together, with ten guardians and thirty-eight stewards, Hou Li believed that he would never be able to do it, and if he wanted to kill so many people in a short period of time, he would probably need a true immortal This is only possible if the character takes action.
"Yes! I found different people and confirmed it repeatedly." The pudgy protector said with certainty.
"Then when the third elder and the fourth elder were killed, were there any suspicious characters in this area?" Hou Li asked after pondering solemnly for a moment.
"They said not," replied the Dwarf Protector.
"If not, then it is very likely that it was done deliberately and the traces were deliberately hidden beforehand! But which true immortal would deliberately kill the third and fourth children? As a true immortal, it should not be!" Hou Li frowned Wrinkled, puzzled.
How did Hou Li know that at that time, Qin Ziling had just emerged from the bottom of the sea and used the heaven-piercing immortal shuttle, his keen soul detected Tu Xun and others, and then hid his figure in the clouds, so that no one noticed his existence , not deliberately concealing traces from the beginning.
"Why did the Great Elder believe that he was a true immortal? Perhaps several people as powerful as the Great Elder joined forces to launch a sudden attack. They could also kill the three elders and the others in a short time." The short and fat guardian hesitated for a moment and reminded. .
"What you said makes sense, but I have fallen into a misunderstanding. If a few people like me suddenly take action, they can indeed achieve this." Hou Li shook his body slightly, glanced at his subordinates approvingly, and felt slightly relieved. Take a breath.
If the true immortal deliberately wanted to kill Tu Xiu and others, this matter would be very difficult for Xueyun Immortal Island.
Because in the million-mile sea area of Pingyu Mountain Blessed Land, the true immortal is the top person.
Xueyun Immortal Island has a large population, but there is only one true immortal, Xueyun Ancestor.
If a few people like him took action, the problem would still be difficult, but it would be much better.
"Have the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder offended any powerful people recently?" Hou Li asked after heaving a sigh of relief.
"I haven't heard of it, but the third elder suffered a big loss on Qingyun Island more than two years ago." The short and fat guardian thought for a while and replied.
"I have heard about Tu Xi's encounter with Qingyun Island, and he also came to beg me. But my status is different from his, so it is not convenient for me to take action. As for the other elders..." At this point, Hou Li paused.
It was hard for him to tell. Several other elders were jealous of Tu Xi who was sitting on Xue Ming Island, and they were eager to see him suffer and lose his strength so that they could take his position.
"Forget it on Qingyun Island, they can't possibly have this ability. But Tu Xi is gone now. He suffered a loss more than two years ago, and he really needs to find his place. Otherwise, others will think that there is no one in our Blood Cloud Island, and even a mere Qingyun Immortal Island can even bully us." Hou Li soon changed the topic and said.
"What the great elder means is that we are going..." the chubby protector asked uncertainly upon hearing this.
"There is no rush now. The most important thing now is to track down the murders of Tu Xun and Murong Min. You have been asking more recently to see if the two of them have offended any powerful people recently, and how to expand the... Inquiry scope." Hou Li said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I understand!" The short, fat protector bowed and accepted the order.
…
When Hou Li and others arrived at the scene of the accident of Tu Xi and others, Qin Ziling and Xiao Qing had already returned to the Five Elements Cave Mansion on Qingyun Island.
As soon as the two returned to the Five Elements Cave Mansion, they summoned the core disciples of Wuji Sect and distributed a lot of cultivation materials, including Wuchen Immortal Pill and Wuchen Yuandan.
This interception on the way was Qin Ziling's biggest windfall after coming to Qingyun Island, except for the Blood Qilin Demon.
In particular, Tu Xiu and Murong Min are the elders of Xueyun Island, and Tu Xiu is also in charge of Xueming Island. Their storage rings contain a lot of resources.
Of course, the biggest resources are the fairy infants and golden elixirs that they have worked hard to cultivate for many years.
Even if others take away the immortal infants and golden elixirs, they will be difficult to deal with. However, Qin Ziling has the fragments of the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Shield in his hand. Once he survives the divine tribulation of his soul and activates the fragments, the ten immortal infants transformed by them will Two rainbows of immortal power and thirty-eight golden elixirs mean fifty dust-free elixirs.
Two of them are still at the late stage of Immortal Infant.
It is precisely because of this strong reserve of resources for the later period that Qin Ziling even distributed some Wuchen Immortal Pill and Wuchen Yuandan when he came back.
The development of a sect requires not only top experts to take charge, but also a strong backbone.
Jian Bailou and other core disciples are the backbone of Wuji Sect.
They are able to stand out in the barren cultivation environment of Xuanming Continent, and each of them has his or her own talent, understanding, and determination.
They just lost because their starting point was too low. Now if they want to catch up and grow quickly in a short period of time, they can only invest in high-quality resources.
Wuchen elixir and Wuchen Yuandan are Qin Ziling's top-notch high-quality resources.
After distributing part of the resources and putting most of the resources into the treasury, Qin Ziling and Xiao Qing went into retreat one after another to practice.
Jian Bailou and others also retreated to practice after receiving resources.
Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, in Zizhuxuan by the lake, Qin Ziling was sitting cross-legged by the lake, circulating his qi and blood, nourishing and refining his internal organs, muscles and bones. He felt the breath of Qu Zhong and Lien Changfeng and stopped.
"Disciple pays homage to the master!" Company Changfeng bowed respectfully to Qin Ziling.
"I've met you, sir." Qu Zhong followed and saluted respectfully.
"Sit down, you two came together today, what's the matter?" Qin Ziling asked.
"Back to Master, my disciple and Qu Bo are here today. They have two things to report to Master." Lian Changfeng replied.
"Say it." Qin Ziling nodded.
"First, not long ago, news came that the third elder Tu Xiu, the fourth elder Murong Min and some guardians of Xueyun Island were suddenly killed for unknown reasons, so we have gone to Qingyun Immortal Island. We are a formidable enemy. Without Tu Xiu and the others waiting eagerly outside, our people can come in and out with confidence from today on," said Lian Changfeng.
Since Tu Xiu was forced to retreat in disgrace two and a half years ago, the main figures in Qingyun Xiandao have not dared to act openly and honestly for more than two years because they were worried that Tu Xiu's people would be waiting for opportunities to attack and kill the people of Qingyun Xiandao. Show your face outside.
"Your idea is too optimistic. Tu Xiu is a person from Xueyun Island. He will be prosperous and suffer losses. In the past, Tu Xiu was still there, and Xueyun Island would let him solve Tu Xiu's matter by himself. Tu Xiu's strength was greatly damaged. , believing that they could not take Qingyun Immortal Island, so there was no movement for a long time.
But now that Tu Xiu has been killed, Xueyun Island will naturally have to repay the losses he suffered back then. Therefore, after some time, people from Blood Cloud Island are likely to come again, and the people who come this time will definitely be more powerful than Tu Xiu. Qin Ziling said.
"Then what should we do?" Lien Changfeng said in surprise when he heard this. He didn't think much about why Qin Ziling didn't show any surprise when he heard the news that Tu Xun and others were killed.
On the other hand, Qu Zhong, an old man, saw that Qin Ziling did not show the slightest surprise, as if he had already known the news, his expression was a bit subtle.
