"How's it going? Did you find it?"
Xie Chi's expression was extremely solemn. Up to now, they had been searching nearby for more than two hours, but they had not found any trace of Yao Jinxin.
When he thought of the punishment he was about to suffer if he returned after failing the mission, he couldn't help but shiver and asked his companions.
"I have used my secret techniques to the extreme, but I still can't find any trace of them."
Another casual cultivator, Li Yun, said anxiously.
A group of seven or eight people are all very strong.
These people are not disciples of the Shengji Sect, but a group of orphans adopted by Yue Hai many years ago. They teach the methods and set restrictions. There is no need to consider the issue of loyalty. They teach and train them seriously during the day and practice training at night.
After many years of training, although his strength is not as good as that of the elite disciples of the sect, he is more loyal than others, and he has nothing to do with the Holy Ji Sect. It is not too convenient to help Yue Hai do something that is inconvenient for him to come forward.
Just like now...
Although their strength is not strong, it is only relatively speaking.
Compared with those casual cultivators, they are much stronger. After all, they were taught by the cultivators of the Realm of Refining Realm day and night, step by step.
But this time, their mission was to pretend to be casual cultivators, sneak into the team at the ruins, and then wait for an opportunity to kill Yao Jinxin, so as to prepare for Su Heqing's ascension to the throne.
This is what Yuehai ordered.
Obviously, she also knows that she talks too much and does too much, and it is easy for others to see through it. It is better to actually do things... If it succeeds, it will naturally be a good thing, but if it fails, the seeds of suspicion will naturally disappear. Will be buried.
When the time comes, they will naturally be able to find traces of these people through their techniques or other places.
Su Heqing was too close to Shushan during this period, but after all she was a member of the evil sect, and Yuehai knew those righteous people too well, and they all called people like Su Heqing "witches".
Even if she pleases the Shushan sect, how deep of a relationship can she have with them?
All you need to do is plant a seed of doubt among them, and over time, the seed will naturally take root and sprout... and that's enough.
In the sensitive environment of exploring ruins, the time for such seeds to germinate will be greatly accelerated.
By then, once he was accused of intending to attack the next headmaster of Shushan, the possibility of Su Heqing leaving the Shushan base camp alive was slim.
Of course, this is Yue Hai's private calculation.
In the eyes of Li Yun and others, it was Elder Yuehai who, in order for his disciple to secure his position as the leader of the Holy Sect, did not hesitate to plot against the next headmaster of Shushan, in order to increase the bargaining chip for Su Heqing.
And she even said harsh words. If the task cannot be completed...then they will be reduced to rubbish by her!
No one would like the death of an ugly, petite old woman.
Therefore, Li Yun and others were desperately trying to kill Yao Jinxin. They had been waiting for the opportunity since they first entered the ruins. Finally, when Yao Jinxin left her master, this was the best opportunity.
I just didn't expect that these people had been flying in the sky and never landed. They were traveling extremely fast. It took them a lot of effort not to be left behind... Now that they finally landed, they disappeared again.
"There's nothing I can do."
Xie Chi smiled bitterly and said: "I don't dare to follow too close. Logically speaking, my form-seeking method can easily avoid the search of spiritual consciousness, but as long as I get a little closer, a warning sign will suddenly appear in my heart... ...It seems that if you go any further, you will definitely be discovered. You should trust my intuition, my intuition has never been wrong."
"But what should we do now that we've lost track?"
"This... wait... found it!!!"
Xie Chi's eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "I sensed the breath of three monks, just in the distance... I felt it, it must be them!"
"Walk!"
Li Yun and Xie Chi exchanged a look, and both understood what the other's eyes meant.
You know, five hundred monks may seem like a lot, but if they are really scattered in this vast world, the number of people who want to meet is very low if they are not deliberately searched... Besides, there are exactly three people.
It must be them without a doubt.
At the moment, seven people were galloping away into the distance at the same time. Although their cultivation levels were not as good as Yao Jinxin's, they were good at a set of combined attack techniques. In addition, they had a high probability of success due to their mental arithmetic and unintentional calculations.
But when everyone flew to the front, they couldn't help but be startled.
I saw a girl in green sitting leisurely on a stone under an ancient cypress tree in front of me, with a slightly amused look on her face. When she noticed them coming, she smiled and waved her hand.
Behind her, a man and a woman stood respectfully.
Although they were not from the Shengji Sect, Li Yun still recognized that these two people were Yingying, the master of the Xiu Clan, and Liu Shang, the master of the Jing Clan.
And as Su Heqing waved his hand.
Xie Chi suddenly noticed that from all directions, more than ten spiritual lights were rushing towards this direction at extremely fast speeds, and in the blink of an eye they had already surrounded them all... All twenty members of the Holy Ji Sect were actually gathered here.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Su Heqing stood up, clapped his hands and said, "I heard that you want to kill Yao Jinxin to help me become the leader of the Holy Sect, right?"
"this……"
Li Yun and others were speechless immediately.
He deliberately denied it. When Yuehai issued the order before, he said that he must avoid Su Heqing... But before, they were clearly following the footsteps of Yao Jinxin, so why were they surrounded by Su Heqing?
It seems that someone is waiting for something to happen, and since the other party is here, I am afraid that he has already obtained sufficient evidence.
Su Heqing looked at Xue Zhixia, turned to look at Li Yun, and asked, "Tell me, whose order are you following?"
Li Yun and others were speechless immediately.
"Forget it, I give up my plan to ask you with words. Now, Master Liushang, I want to live."
"yes!"
Liu Shang responded and shouted: "You must listen clearly to the orders of the Saint, she wants to live..."
At this time, Liuxin's heart was also full of indignation.
They all entered Shushan to seek for heavenly materials and earthly treasures. This was already a big adventure... That is to say, the saint girl had a close relationship with the immortal and mysterious body, so they could have this opportunity.
But at this time, someone actually mingled among the casual cultivators in the name of Shengji Sect, intending to quietly assassinate the future headmaster of Shushan. No matter whether this was successful or not, I am afraid this would be their way to death.
They are fighting life and death in front, but there is an insidious villain behind this plan... How to teach them not to be angry?
He vowed to capture these people and bring them back to the Holy Ji Sect for torture and questioning to find out who did it.
Taking action now is extremely decisive. Although it cannot kill them, it can make them suffer severely.
But Xue Zhixia didn't move, she just stood there quietly, looking at Su Heqing who was also standing there looking at her, she asked: "These people must be sent by Yuehai."
Su Heqing hummed.
"But I'm very curious. These people are not disciples of the Shengji Sect, and they don't have a staff. How did you know that they would come here to assassinate Yao Jinxin?"
Su Heqing said casually: "I knew that my master would never let us take away the treasures of heaven and earth so easily, so I had to guard against her... But I didn't expect that she would kill me in order to , I don’t even hesitate to let you be buried with me.”
Xue Zhixia said lightly: "I'm here to deal with you. If you die, it doesn't mean much whether I die or not. How can I hold the emperor hostage to order the princes, compared with the comfort of sitting on a high position myself? But you The reason is too far-fetched, Yuehai is so despicable, what I’m asking is how do you know so clearly, and how are you sure they are here?”
"This is my business and has nothing to do with you."
Su Heqing said: "Let's go, I'm afraid these people have restrictions on them, but as long as they are thrown in front of the ancestor, Yuehai will not be able to hide it from the ancestor even if the restrictions are triggered immediately."
As she spoke, she twitched the corners of her mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile.
"Master is really shrewd. It's a pity that she only missed a little bit."
"It's a perfect plan, but unfortunately, she missed a little bit."
At this time, Fang Zheng, who had already left, had a sarcastic smile on his face and said, "The mastermind behind the scenes has ignored the relationship between me and Qing'er."
"What is your relationship with her?"
Yun Zhiqing asked curiously: "Before, Su Heqing openly took off her clothes and hooked up with you in the woods. I didn't believe her at that time, but now looking at the relationship between the two of you, could it be said that you were not hooking up at that time? But adultery?”
Fang Zheng: "…………………………………………"
