Chapter 257: The Truth?

"Your Excellency."

Before Yan Wei left, he was still concerned about Qi Yue.

"Do you want your subordinates to summon a demon doctor to heal you?"

Qi Yue's face was very bad, and he looked like he was also seriously injured.

Qi Yue refused lightly: "The deity is okay, let's solve the matter of Wuhe first." ”

After he finished speaking, his figure disappeared in front of Yan Wei.

Mountains and rivers within the borders.

The sect masters and elders of the four major sects had already arrived at the edge of the lake where Jiang Yanlu had previously encountered the Mirror Demon.

Elder Yin Zheng's face was serious: "Xie Qi said that after they were dragged into the water by the mirror demon, they came to a dark room, and in the dark room, they met a monk of the Merge Realm. ”

He raised his eyes and looked at the sect master of Kunlun Palace: "The place of trials has always only allowed disciples to enter, and there are only demon beasts in it, why is there a dark room under the lake?" ”

Elder Yin Zheng was holding back a fire in his heart.

Not to mention that before he set off for Kunlun Palace, Xuanqing Zhenjun repeatedly told him to take care of his disciples.

Not to mention the friendship between him and Jiang Yanlu.

Let's talk about the injuries on Jiang Yanlu's body.

If it were any monk other than her and Xie Qi, they would die there on the spot!

The elder of Kunlun Palace saw that Elder Yin Zheng meant something, and his face also deteriorated, and he maintained:

"The mountains and rivers realm can be used as a test place for the group stage of this year's Xiuzhen Realm competition, which is the result of the blind votes of all of you, and you will be elected by winning more with fewer victories."

"And this place of trial is the Phaseless Sect, if you have any doubts in your heart, you should also ask the Sect Master of the Phaseless Sect."

To ensure fairness and justice.

The competition venues for the group stage of each Xiuzhen Realm Grand Competition are selected from the places of trial in the four major sects.

The mountain and river scroll in the hands of the palace master of Kunlun Palace last time was the teleportation entrance brought by the sect master of the Wuxiang Sect from the Wuxiang Sect.

Hearing this, the Sect Master of the Wuxiang Sect immediately said:

"Although the land of trials belongs to our Wuxiang Sect, our sect has always been at the end of the line, and it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing."

"Digging a dark room in the cultivation place you brought to hide people and harm people, isn't that obviously being discovered?"

"It's too late for me to appreciate Jiang Yanlu, how can someone hurt her?"

Elder Yin Zheng didn't believe anyone's words now.

The Sect Master of the Taixuan Sword Sect also showed no mercy to anyone:

"Anyone will say that the two disciples of my sect who were injured this time are also the two most popular in the individual competition, how come it happened that the two of them were dragged to the bottom of this lake by the mirror demon?"

Seeing that a few people hadn't gotten into the water yet, they quarreled first, and the sect master of Kunlun Palace opened his mouth to reconcile the atmosphere.

"It's useless to talk too much, we might as well go down first and see what is going on in the dark room before making a decision."

"Don't forget, we still have to find the monk of the Merge Realm."

Xie Qi said that he was defeated in a fight with the Merge Realm monk, and desperately escaped from the dark room with Jiang Yanlu.

Fortunately, the other party did not catch up, and several of them were lucky enough to get their lives back.

This is also one of the important reasons why the Sect Master of Kunlun Palace, together with the other three Sect Masters, ordered the immediate closure of the Mountains and Rivers Realm.

Once the mountain and river realm is closed, it is impossible for the other party to have a chance to escape.

Finally, the men stopped arguing with their tongues, split the lake, and went to the deepest part of the lake.

But they were stunned by the scene before them.

The dark chambers at the bottom of the lake all collapsed, and the stones were stacked.

The lake is poured into it and everything inside is rinsed away.

No clues were left.

No one could have guessed that this was Qi Yue's masterpiece.

Before he left, he didn't find the slightest trace of anything suspicious in the dark room.

The other party is very cautious and careful.

In this case, Qi Yue can't leave any handle here.

Especially when he knew that the Taixuan Sword Sect had a backtracking magic weapon.

The backtracking weapon may not be able to find out the murderer behind the scenes, but it will definitely reveal his identity.

Therefore, Qi Yue simply destroyed the entire dark room.

The clue was broken here, and Elder Yin Zheng's face darkened again.

He sneered, "It's really fast. ”

The Sect Master of the Taixuan Sword Sect also made a straight face.

The Sect Master of the Golden Ding Sect slowly spoke: "All the clues have been washed away, and there is no breath at all, and it is difficult to judge whether the other party is a demon cultivator or a person from the cultivation realm." ”

"I can still tell a little." The Sect Master of the Wuxiang Sect squatted down and felt the uneven marks on one of the stones that had been soaked in the lake, "The construction time of this dark room should not be long, and it looks rushed. ”

The Sect Master of the Taixuan Sword Sect hurriedly said: "So, it is very likely that the other party entered the place of trials when the Mountain and River Realm was opened, temporarily dug out a dark room, and hid in it?"

"If he wants to kill someone, he just kills him inside, so why do you have to do more?"

The elder of the Wuxiang Sect immediately said: "Naturally, it is to blame the trouble!" The place of trial belongs to our sect, if you find a dark room inside, isn't the first thing that comes to mind is our sect? ”

The Sect Master of the Golden Ding Sect frowned: "But on the day the Mountain and River Realm opened, the four of us were all present, if there were really villains sneaking in, it would be impossible for us not to find out." ”

"There's another way." The sect master of Kunlun Palace said: "Mirror Demon." ”

The words of the sect master of Kunlun Palace were like an initiation.

Everyone understood instantly.

The Mirror Demon can move quickly through the surface of the water.

They can teleport from one piece of water to another surface of water that is not very far away in a very short period of time.

But this kind of spell consumes the mirror demon's primordial spirit and longevity very much.

Mirror demons won't do this unless they have to.

If that's the case, they'll probably be able to piece it togetherβ€”

On the day when the Mountains and Rivers Realm opened, the Mirror Demon took the Merge Realm monk and teleported through the water surface space to enter this land of trials.

In less than thirty days, he dug out a dark chamber at the bottom of the lake and hid it in it.

And let the Mirror Demon pull the monks who pass by into the water, so as to kill them.

But the two people he met happened to be the two most powerful monks in this group.

Not only did the Mirror Demon die because of this, but the Merge Realm monk was also injured.

Later, it was they who closed the mountain and river realm in advance.

Everything quickly became clear.

Elder Yin Zheng still felt that something was wrong.

But at this moment, the sect master of Kunlun Palace had already ordered: "In such a short period of time, the other party has no mirror demon, and he is injured on his body, he shouldn't run too far, let's chase him separately and see if we can find him." ”

The end result was not found.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, after discussing with the four sect masters, they still decided to declare to the outside world that they had killed the monster.

Elder Yin Zheng's face was still serious, and when he returned to the East Ten Peaks, he went to Jiang Yanlu's residence.

At that time, Jiang Yanlu had just woken up.

She was still very weak.

Xin Zhu received her gaze, raised her pillow, and left the room with the rest of the people, closing the door by the way.

Elder Yin Zheng sat in front of the bed, his eyes guilty: "It's because we didn't protect you. ”

Jiang Yanlu's voice was weak: "What about the little junior brother?" How is he? ”

Elder Yin Zheng: "His injuries are lighter than yours, and I didn't see him again when I came over." ”

"How much do you remember what happened under the lake?"

"Elder Yin Zheng," Jiang Yanlu said slowly, "I saw my portrait. ”
