Chapter 38: Zhang Xuanji's Speculation

This sword aura.

Zhang Xuanji is no stranger.

A few years ago, Zhang Duo, the disciple of the Patrol Academy, whose mind was eroded by the demons, was seriously injured by a kendo master.

Now, he had sensed the sword qi of the same origin again.

And compared to a few years ago, this person's strength has improved rapidly, and it is no longer the same.

How terrifying must it be to break through the danger with a sword?

His family knows his own affairs, and he will never be able to do this.

Could it be that that mysterious swordsman already has Hou's strength?

Zhang Xuanji's heart was shocked, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Dean, why did this wind suddenly stop?" Concubine Liu, the elder of the Cave Xuan Realm, asked with a frown.

Hear the words.

Zhang Xuanji glanced at her, and after thinking about it, he finally chose to hide the truth.

He shook his head and said slowly: "I don't know about this matter, the danger came abruptly, maybe it was also abrupt." ”

Concubine Liu is a delicate woman, she is keenly aware of what Zhang Xuanji did not say, but she did not ask.

As long as everyone can get through the danger safely.

After casually giving Concubine Liu a perfunctory sentence, Zhang Xuanji walked out slowly from behind the small mound, and at the same time shouted in a deep voice:

"Quickly check the number of people to see if there are any casualties and the stockpile of supplies."

He methodically instructed the follow-up matters, and soon there was a report from the Cave Mystery Realm.

"Except for a few Jade Ding Realm disciples who have consumed a lot of spiritual power, there are no casualties.

Some of the supplies were blown away by the strong winds, but in general it was enough for us to need for the time being. ”

Zhang Xuanji nodded, feeling a little relieved.

Sure enough, the mysterious swordsman made a move, obviously foolproof.

He summoned everyone over, slowly swept his gaze twice, and then said:

"We only have a stick of incense to rest, and after a stick of incense, we must set off quickly to the campsite for tonight.

Delayed by Gangfeng, we are still four hundred miles away from that small valley, and the rest time along the way should be appropriately reduced, and you will distribute your physical strength by yourself. ”

Subsequently.

A group of thirty people hurried towards the valley without stopping.

Fortunately, after the Gangfeng, there were no other accidents along the way.

The sporadic few demon beasts were also directly shot by Zhang Xuanji, and they were killed neatly and neatly, without delaying any time.

Under such a tense schedule, everyone could have entered the small valley in a moment before nightfall.

Zhang Xuanji did not let his guard down, and took the first step to send the elders of the Cave Xuanjing Realm to inspect the valley several times.

Make sure there is no danger, only a few unintelligent beasts, just enough to use to feed their stomachs.

"The elders keep on guard, the disciples of the Jade Ding Realm go to hunt wild beasts, and by the way, find some dry branches to come back and use them as firewood, and the disciples below the Tinder Realm are responsible for setting up the camp."

Zhang Xuanji divided the work for everyone according to the cultivation realm, and then he nodded to Concubine Liu, and then left here alone.

Under the cover of night, Zhang Xuanji's back quickly disappeared, and everyone didn't see the direction of his departure clearly.

Not much.

A disciple of the Jade Ding Realm returned to the camp carrying a branch, and Qi Huai and Gu Xiaoran were assigned to build firewood and prepare for the barbecue.

Qi Huai squatted on the ground, picked up the branches, and made a simple barbecue grill.

He cut the meat into small pieces and scurried on the thin branches, a smile slowly rising into the corners of his mouth.

He had a clear heart in his heart, and he had long sensed that Zhang Xuanji was hiding in the woods, carefully observing everyone.

But.

He is not prepared to debunk, let alone make any moves.

As Qi Huai said, Zhang Xuanji, who pretended to leave the camp, made a detour and sneaked back.

He hid in the shadows and watched what happened.

The gaze swept back and forth over everyone's body, not letting go of any detail.

If it was really the mysterious swordsman, it meant that he had passed the Great Guard.

But every time the Great Array sends someone over, it costs a huge amount of spirit stones, not to mention that it is still a Hou-level powerhouse.

How could the Ten Marquis Palaces not find out?

Along the way, Zhang Xuanji thought about it, and there were only two conjectures left.

First, this person's cultivation realm has not yet reached the Hou level, he is just that his combat power is too high.

Of course, this is an incredible conjecture.

With the realm of the Cave Xuan Realm or even a lower realm to rival the Hou-level powerhouse, what kind of genius does this have to be?

I'm afraid that the peerless Tianjiao who has repeatedly broken through the limit of the realm and can destroy the demon clan is nothing more than that.

As for the second, it is that this person has some kind of magic weapon to disguise the realm aura.

Moreover, this mysterious swordsman is hidden in the team!

That's why Zhang Xuanji will take advantage of this opportunity to secretly observe everyone, trying to find out the true identity of that person.

"Gu Xiaoran, this little girl has just reached the age of twenty, her parents know me well, she is a heartless child, she definitely can't be that swordsman.

Qi Huai... The Great Xia people ......"

Zhang Xuanji was thoughtful, but then he slowly shook his head and muttered softly:

"It's a bit unusual for a Qi Cultivation Realm disciple to be placed in other courtyards, but it's not surprising that he has been staying in the autopsy courtyard.

And along the way, his performance was very easy-going, and there was nothing suspicious, except for being faster when decomposing the corpse, all his actions were very in line with a Qi cultivation realm.

Well, he can also rule it out. ”

Then, Zhang Xuanji turned to observe the rest of the people.

He didn't notice that just a foot behind him, there was a dark shadow, quietly hiding there.

......

Next to the fire, Gu Xiaoran suddenly elbowed Qi Huai.

Qi Huai looked at her suspiciously, only to see her squinting, revealing two small dimples, and asked with a smile:

"Eh, why don't we sleep together at night?"

"Ahem, this... Looks like it's okay. ”

Qi Huai coughed lightly, without being tactful, let alone refusing, and his face was not red when he said this.

However, he is a thick-skinned one.

But Gu Xiaoran was not, after asking that sentence, she suddenly felt that her face was very hot.

Seems to be able to boil eggs.

Under the reflection of the firelight, a trace of shame appeared in her eyes, and she hummed softly.

Subsequently, the two had a tacit understanding and stopped talking.

And by this time, the meat was also roasted, and everyone gathered around.

Zhang Xuanji appeared from the shadows, took a piece of the fattest barbecue from the hands of others, and while eating, he commanded everyone:

"There are many dangers in the wilderness, especially after nightfall, no one knows what lurks in the darkness, so don't let your guard down.

Tonight, I and the five elders will take turns keeping vigil to make sure that the fire is not extinguished.

If there is nothing important, the rest of the disciples should not go out and stay in the tent. ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded yes.

This is the end of a dinner that is not sumptuous, but filling.

The disciples worked in groups and entered the tent that had been set up.

During the day, the road was tiring, and the wind was experienced, both physical strength and mental strength were lost, and everyone soon entered the dream.

And the first Cave Xuan Realm elder who was assigned to the night vigil was none other than Concubine Liu.

She sat cross-legged at the fire, always on her guard.

Soon an hour passed, and apart from the occasional breeze on his cheeks, the valley was calm and unremarkable.

Concubine Liu added a few branches to the fire, and suddenly there was a crackling sound.

Followed by.

The flame grew larger, swayed a few times in the wind, and then ......

Suddenly extinguished!

Concubine Liu was stunned, her face changed instantly, and she wanted to send a warning signal.

But who knows, the two eyelids weigh as much as a thousand pounds.

Concubine Liu couldn't support it, and her boneless body slowly fell to the ground.

Meanwhile.

The lilac mist crept into the valley, enveloping the sleeping crowd.
