Chapter 289: Quietly Begins

"Elder Pan?"

Yang Er of the Wind Sword Sect finally noticed that something was wrong with Elder Pan who suddenly appeared in front of him, so he asked with some doubts.

However, the former elder of the Nine Xuanmen, Elder Pan Rongpan, still walked towards Yang Er silently.

"Elder Pan, is it... Could it be that you said you came here for the previous thing? Before... It was true that I talked a little more heavily with my senior brother and the other Nine Xuanmen Daoists before, but I didn't mean to disrespect the Nine Xuanmen Daoists at all!"

Yang Er also thought that the reason why this Elder Pan appeared here was because Elder Pan saw the scene of the verbal conflict between himself and his fellow senior brother Meng Ge in the attic where the monks of the Nine Xuanmen lived and the monks of the Nine Xuanmen, so the Elder Pan of this association would come to arrest him.

But no matter what Yang Er said, the Pan Elder on the other side did not respond, but walked towards Yang Er slowly.

Yang Er, who will be a little passive, seems to have really become a sheep.

When the time came to the early morning of the next day, those monks who had been waiting all night in the area where the Flying Dharma Boat was staying still could not wait for the Flying Dharma Boat of the fourth demon cultivation team.

As a result, half of the monks were already missing, and the other half of the monks came at dawn.

Xuanyu Plain, in the attic where the Taoist priest of the Qianxi Temple lived.

"Ye Kui, now do you want to continue over there to see the situation of the fourth demon cultivation team?"

At this time, Jiang Zhijin had already come to the room where Ye Kui lived.

"Then let's take a look, it's really not good, I can only wait for the official start of the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference in the afternoon, and then quietly see the situation of the four demon cultivation teams."

After Ye Kui agreed, Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin left the attic and walked towards the area where the flying magic boat stayed.

"Fellow Daoist, excuse me, the fourth demon cultivation team hasn't arrived yet?"

After Ye Kui came to the scene, he found that although there were six or seven more flying magic boats among the dozens of flying magic boats, there was still no fourth flying magic boat that the demon cultivator was riding, so Ye Kui asked the monk who was walking in the direction behind him.

"Harm, don't mention it, I and other fellow Daoists have waited in vain for a night, and the flying magic boats that have landed since last night are all other immortal sects, and there is no fourth flying magic boat belonging to demon cultivators to land."

When the monk replied to Ye Kui, he also pointed to the other monks who had returned to the attic.

"I see, thank you."

"Little things, I still have to go to other things, I'll go first, you can ask other fellow Daoists who are returning to the attic for other things."

The monk walked out quickly.

"Ye Kui, it seems that it was right that we didn't stay here last night, otherwise we would definitely waste our time like them."

Jiang Zhijin also heard the conversation between Ye Kui and the monk just now, and immediately said to Ye Kui.

"Let's go over there and have a look, if you're lucky, maybe you'll be able to see the fourth Demon Cultivator's flying magic boat descend."

Ye Kui was not surprised, but just asked Jiang Zhijin to continue walking towards the area where the flying magic boat was parked.

"Corpses! It's a corpse!"

"The murderer again?"

"Which immortal sect or sect monk died this time?"

"I have to tell the Daoist friends of the Nine Xuanmen about this quickly."

"Wave after wave, but I feel like the same guy did it."

"The Nine Xuanmen has to be busy again."

However, after Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin quickened their pace and walked for a while, they heard the exclamations of other monks in front of them, and those monks quickly surrounded a certain area.

"The same thing happened again."

Ye Kui probably heard something.

"I didn't expect that the murderer who killed the monk of the Minmen Sect hadn't left the Xuanyu Plain, but was so bold that he continued to stay and commit crimes, I don't know who this encounter was."

Jiang Zhijin said with some surprise.

Later, Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin also accompanied

The smell of blood squeezed into the back of those monks, and at this time, Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin could only barely see through the gap between the crowd that there was indeed a monk's corpse lying on the ground that had been stabbed into the heart and abdomen by two long knives respectively, but they couldn't see the monk's corpse's face clearly.

Although Ye Kui felt that the monk's corpse was somewhat familiar, because the monk's corpse was stained with too much blood and the corpse was also a little distorted, Ye Kui couldn't remember who the other party was for a while.

"When did this body appear? I remember there really wasn't anything here but leaves."

"I'm confused, too."

"It's weird, anyway, as soon as I turned my head, I saw a person lying on the bloody ground in the distance, and then I followed the other fellow Daoists to approach this corpse."

The surrounding monks began to discuss the corpse with each other.

"Doesn't anyone know how this corpse came to be? Or did someone behaving mishapantly leave the corpse?"

When Jiang Zhijin heard the discussion of the other monks around him, Jiang Zhijin immediately asked those monks.

"I don't know, maybe the other fellow Daoists saw something."

"There weren't many people here at the time, and it must have been some time since this corpse appeared, and the guy who put the corpse here must have run away."

"Previously, the elders of the Nine Xuanmen also said that they would definitely be able to catch the murderer of the cultivator of the Array Min Sect before the official start of the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference this afternoon, but something happened again today."

"Well, I'll just say that the Nine Xuanmen should continue to send people to patrol the neighborhood."

"Oh, the Daoist friends of the Nine Xuanmen are here, everyone let go."

"Hmph, see what they'll say, this isn't the first time this has happened."

When the surrounding monks heard that the monks of the Nine Xuanmen were coming, they all got out of the way.

"Have you ever seen the murderer?"

After the Nine Xuanmen monks surrounded the monk's body on behalf of the surrounding monks, another elder of the Nine Xuanmen immediately said to the surrounding monks.

"Nope."

"If I had seen what that guy looked like, I'd have caught him red-handed, not like somebody."

"Elder, what do you think about this? There are still a few hours before the start of this Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference, but the same thing happened as yesterday, tsk, Jiuxuanmen would be like this... Arrived at the scene in such a timely manner."

The surrounding monks either shook their heads or began to be angry.

"Take the corpse away, fellow Daoists, the old man farewell."

This time, the other elder of the Nine Xuanmen did not confidently promise when he would catch the murderer like the previous elder, but casually said a few words and ordered the other Nine Xuanmen monks to leave here with the corpse of the monk on the ground.

"Stop! Leave me my brother's body!"

At this time, a monk's shout suddenly came from not far away, and then more than 3,000 monks with double swords behind their backs appeared in the direction where the monks of Jiuxuanmen were about to leave.

The monk who shouted loudly just now was the frowning monk standing in front of the more than 3,000 monks.

"Meng Daoyou?"

Ye Kui recognized the monk who was shouting loudly.

"A monk of the Wind Sword Sect?"

"By the way, the style of the clothes worn by the corpse of the monk just now is indeed from the monk of the Wind Sword Sect, but it was cut to pieces, and most of the Daoists didn't recognize it, and those two long knives seem to be the weapons of the dead monk."

"I remember that the two scabbards behind the monk's corpse on the ground just now happened to be empty, and the size of those two scabbards was indeed suitable for the two knives stuck in the monk's corpse."

"Looking at the menacing appearance of the Daoists of the Wind Sword Sect, it seems that they didn't directly let the Daoists of the Nine Xuanmen take the corpse away smoothly."

"Hehe, how can a medium-sized immortal gate be a large immortal gate? It's not that you can't handle you if you don't take advantage of it,

I'm just embarrassed to do it."

"Waiting for the meeting will not only bully the small with the big, but also bully the small with the more, which is a bit shameless."

The surrounding monks saw that the monks of the Wind Sword Sect who arrived here a little later seemed to be in conflict with the monks of the Nine Xuanmen who had arrived earlier and were about to leave, so these monks began to express their opinions.

"Ye Kui, what do you think will happen?"

After Jiang Zhijin saw the monk of the Wind Sword Sect blocking the path of the monk of the Nine Xuanmen, he turned his head and asked Ye Kui on the side.

"According to what you said, the monks of the Nine Xuanmen will definitely be able to take the corpse away, after all, the gap between the Nine Xuanmen and the Wind Sword Sect is indeed quite large, but it shouldn't be a fight, so the Wind Sword Sect can only give way."

When Ye Kui said this, he looked at the corpse that had been wrapped in a long cloth by the Nine Xuanmen monks and held in front of him.

Thinking of the wounds on the corpse of the Minmen monks before, Ye Kui always felt that the murderer had killed these two monks one after another very casually, but this time the martyred monks died more miserably than the Jinminmen monks.

After all, the Wind Sword Sect monk died from his own weapon, and his body also became a little distorted, unlike the Formation Sect monk who was directly killed by an unknown weapon.

"Fellow Daoist of the Double Sword Sect, you calm down first, we have an unshirkable responsibility for the death of your fellow sect, but what we have to do now is to continue to search for that murderer, and there may still be clues about that murderer on the corpse of your fellow sect.

Therefore, we can't talk about handing over the corpses of your fellow sect to you for the time being, and besides, the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference is about to begin, and I hope that the Daoists of the Wind Sword Sect will understand our difficulties."

The elder of the Nine Xuanmen said to Meng Ge of the Wind Sword Sect.

"Whew! Do you really think that our Wind Sword Sect is as bad as the Array Sect? I tell you, if you don't return to us the body of my master Yang Er, then you don't want to leave here!"

The angry Meng Ge said and looked at the corpse wrapped in a long cloth held by the monk of the Nine Xuanmen Sect, and the handles and blades of the two knives exposed outside the cloth.

"Meng Ge, don't be impulsive, we didn't come here to conflict with the Nine Xuanmen, there should be room for negotiation."

At this time, the elders of the Wind Sword Sect came out to persuade Meng Ge, who was gradually losing his mind.

"Elder Sun, do you really think that the Nine Xuanmen will easily return Senior Brother Yang's body to us? Don't forget the Array Sect Monk who hasn't squeaked until now, Elder Sun, do you want us to be as soft as the Array Sect Monk like rotten?"

Even the elders of the Twin Sword Sect could directly say the angry Meng Ge.

"Meng Ge, you step aside, I'll discuss with the Daoists of the Nine Xuanmen."

Elder Sun of the Wind Sword Sect continued to speak to Meng Ge.

"Elder Sun, you know this is impossible!"

"Meng Ge, if you don't retreat, then I will immediately tell the sect master what happened here, and I believe that the sect master will not let you do anything."

"Elder Sun, you... You know the temper of the master, he has always been important and light, he will definitely let us go back to the attic and stay, and then when the time comes, we will honestly participate in the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference."

"Menger, now that you know what's going to happen, you don't back down."

"But... But... I... I'll quit."

In the end, Meng Ge still obeyed Elder Sun's orders.

"Meng Daoyou's statue argued with a middle-aged monk of the Wind Sword Sect."

Ye Kui also saw the process of Meng Ge and Elder Sun talking in the distance.

"Ye Kui, even if I don't listen to what the two monks of the Wind Sword Sect are arguing about, I can understand something from their behavior and demeanor, the Meng Daoyou you said should have said something serious to the monks of the Nine Xuanmen, so he was taught a lesson by the elders of the same sect or other seniors before he calmed down."

Jiang Zhijin on the side guessed the general situation.

"Well, that's what you say."

Ye Kui also agreed with Jiang Zhijin's statement.

After a while, Elder Sun of the Wind Sword Sect ordered the other Wind Sword Sects

The monk pressed Meng Ge, who was shouting, to leave here first, and then the Nine Xuanmen monks left here with the body of Yang Er, a monk of the Wind Sword Sect.

However, before Meng Ge was pressed away by his fellow brothers, he kept shouting, "Yang Er, the senior brother will definitely avenge you", "A large immortal gate, you can't even catch the rats scurrying around at home, and the guys in the Nine Xuanmen are all wine bags and rice bags", "The Wind Dao Sect, the Jinmin Sect are all Wang Ba, except for shrinking, shrinking is shrinking" and the like.

After the Nine Xuanmen Monks and the Wind Sword Sect Monks had left here, the surrounding monks began to discuss the death of the Wind Sword Sect Monks again, and the matter of the fourth demon cultivation team that they had cared about had been temporarily forgotten by them.

Even Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin's attention was temporarily focused on the matter of the monks of the Wind Sword Sect.

And in the area where the flying magic boat stopped, there was an additional flying magic boat that looked a little different, and this flying magic boat was the flying magic boat that the fourth demon cultivation team was riding.

And at this time, the demon cultivators in this flying magic boat were also taken to live in other attics by the monks of the Nine Xuanmen who came from other directions not long ago.

"Ye Kui, this time the Nine Xuanmen didn't send the Nine Xuanmen monks to guard the place where the dead monks were lying like last time, should we go over there and have a look?"

Jiang Zhijin pointed to a certain piece of bloodstained ground that was observed by more than a dozen monks in a circle.

"Could it be that corpse Yang Er?"

This will Ye Kui was thinking about other things for the time being, so he didn't hear what Jiang Zhijin was in.

Ye Kui remembered what Meng Ge said just now before he was pressed away by the Wind Sword Sect's cultivation, so Ye Kui appeared in his mind a monk who could match what Meng Ge said, that is, Meng Ge's fellow disciple Yang Er.

"Ye Kui, the Yang Er you are talking about should not be the name of the corpse that was taken away by the Nine Xuanmen monks just now, right? Do you still have any friendship with the monks of the Wind Sword Sect?"

Jiang Zhijin didn't bother with why Ye Kui didn't answer himself, but immediately asked some questions based on what Ye Kui said.

"It's not a friendship, I can only say that I have met a few times, and I can be regarded as getting to know each other."

Ye Kui felt that the relationship between himself and Meng Ge and Yang Er was indeed not very familiar.

"Okay, then Ye Kui, did you think of anything crucial?"

"Zhi Jin, what do you think are the obvious similarities and differences between the death of that monk of the Jinmin Sect and the death of the monk of the Wind Sword Sect?"

"Let me think about this first."

Hearing Ye Kui ask this, Jiang Zhijin had no choice but to think about it immediately.

"Yes, the most similar thing is that the Jinmin Sect and the Wind Sword Sect are both medium-sized immortal sects, and the bodies of the monk who died in the Jinmin Gate and the monk who died in the Wind Sword Sect were only discovered by other monks during the day.

The biggest difference is that the Xianmen behind the two dead monks have different attitudes towards the same thing, after all, until now, we have not seen the Jinminmen monks take the initiative to mention this matter, nor have they been to the scene.

The monks of the Wind Sword Sect came directly here to stop the monks of the Nine Xuanmen and asked for the corpses of the same sect with the monks of the Nine Xuanmen.

Ye Kui, I think that the actions of the Wind Sword Sect are the normal behavior of an immortal sect to treat this kind of thing, not like the Jinmin Sect when nothing happened.

Unless... Unless the death of the monk of the Array Sect has anything to do with the Formation Sect itself, or that the Formation Sect knows something in advance, and the death of the monk of the Wind Knife Sect has nothing to do with the Wind Knife Sect at all.

That's why the monks of the Wind Sword Sect will ask the monks of the Nine Xuanmen Sect for the corpses of their fellow sects."

Jiang Zhijin began to express his opinion.

"Zhi Jin, there is actually another place in common, it's just that you didn't meet Meng Ge and Yang Er of the Wind Sword Sect last night, so you don't know."

"Ye Kui, don't you want to tell me that the two monks who died have some different orientations?"

Jiang Zhijin said with wide eyes.

「......」

"Ye Kui, am I right?"

「......」

"Haha, I'm kidding, after all, the atmosphere is a bit dreary."

After Ye Kui was silent for a while, Jiang Zhijin said embarrassedly.

"The monk who died in the Array Sect and the monk who died in the Wind Sword Sect should be alone."

After being silent for a while, Du Ye Kui continued.

"Oh? Is it? If you have seen the situation of the monk who died in the Wind Sword Sect, then how can you be sure that the monk who died in the Jinmin Sect was also killed alone?"

Jiang Zhijin thought about it, he really hadn't heard of other circumstances about the monk who was killed in the Jinmin Gate, so he asked Ye Kui like this.

"Zhi Jin, I learned about the other information about the murdered monk of the Jinmin Gate from other sources, but I forgot to tell you."

Ye Kui said that the other way was the monk who invited him to investigate the cause of the death of the Jinminmen monk before.

"Okay then."

When Jiang Zhijin heard this, he didn't continue to ask, after all, if Ye Kui told him that way, then Ye Kui would definitely directly explain who reported the situation, not "other ways".

"Zhi Jin, do you want to come with me to meet the monks of the Nine Xuanmen?"

"That's okay, but I'm worried that they will see through your disguise, so it will be a little embarrassing, Ye Kui, are you sure you want to talk to the Nine Xuanmen monks?"

"It doesn't matter, even if I'm not really a Qianxi Guan Daoist, but you are indeed a Qianxi Guan Taoist, this is enough, if you don't want to go, it's okay, I'll go and talk to the Jiuxuanmen monk myself."

"Ye Kui, you've said everything you have to say, I will definitely go with you."

After Jiang Zhijin agreed to communicate with Ye Kui to the Nine Xuanmen monks, Ye Kui took Jiang Zhijin to the attic that Meng Ge, the monk of the Wind Sword Sect, told him.

"Ye Kui, the monks of the Nine Xuanmen live here?"

Jiang Zhijin looked at the high attic with closed windows and doors in front of him and said.

"That's right, but this time the Nine Xuanmen may have left the attic, when I came here before, the first floor of this attic was open, and there were several Nine Xuanmen monks guarding here, but I hadn't tried to say anything to the Nine Xuanmen monks at that time."

Ye Kui knew what Jiang Zhijin meant, so Ye Kui explained to Jiang Zhijin that he saw the situation when he came to the vicinity of this attic.

After Ye Kui walked to the first floor of the attic and knocked on the closed wooden door, not a single monk from the Nine Xuanmen came out of the attic.

"Didn't these Nine Xuanmen monks leave the attic with even a single guy left behind?"

Jiang Zhijin also found that there was not a single monk of the Nine Xuanmen in this attic, and then pouted and said.

"Maybe it's because the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference is about to start a few hours later, so the Nine Xuanmen sent the Nine Xuanmen monks to prepare."

Ye Kui didn't care much about this, after all, Ye Kui only came here with the idea of trying his luck.

"So Ye Kui, what now? Do you want to wait or just leave?"

"Let's go."

Ye Kui turned around and walked away without hesitation.

Jiang Zhijin first continued to look at the window on a certain floor of the attic that opened a gap as wide as a finger for a while, and then Jiang Zhijin found that there was indeed nothing there, and finally Jiang Zhijin followed Ye Kui out of this empty attic.

After Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin left the attic, a few more incense sticks passed, and Jiang Zhijin stared at the slightly open window on a certain floor of the attic and slowly closed.

And in the room of that window, there was a monk of the Nine Xuanmen Sect.

This Nine Xuanmen monk was Elder Pan Rongpan, who had been idle for a while since he lost his position as an elder, and when Elder Pan closed the window just now, he was still thinking about whether he should open the door and invite them to come in and sit when the two pious Taoist priests knocked on the door.

"Thinking about it, I was right not to invite those two Spiritual Monks into this attic just now, if I didn't manage to deal with them quietly after inviting them in, then I might be exposed.

Besides, now that his plan has just begun, it is better for me to be cautious, and the next target has been chosen

Definitely, rest for a while and then get back to work."

After Pan Rong finished speaking, he closed his eyes and leaned back on the back of the straight chair, and he began to think about the specific steps of what to do next in his mind.
