Qing Xuan, Wu Mengsheng and the others came to the dungeon in the Sword Pavilion together, where Chun Yuxia and the others, who were intimidated by Gu Qinfang a few days ago, were imprisoned, and there was Elder Du's apprentice Du Min. These people are held in separate prisons, and they cannot talk to each other, in order to prevent these people from colluding in confessions, so that they can get the most accurate information.

But this is also redundant, after all, Du Min is not an iron-blooded man, after being caught by Gu Qinfang, he truthfully explained everything without much torture. However, his cultivation was too low, even if he was Elder Du's great-great-grandson, he would not be able to know that Elder Du was involved in various things in the sect.

But Chun Yuxia is different, after all, she is the personal disciple of the head of the Lingying faction, and she is also very competitive for the next head, even if she has been sent to the front line now, but the head of the Lingying faction has not expelled her from the ranks of disciples, she is still the head disciple, but she doesn't have much real power. However, she also learned a lot about the various secrets of the sect. But according to her words, "Why should I cooperate with you? Even if I am just an ordinary Jindan monk now, I don't need to turn my back on my master for the sake of my life!

Her attitude is very resolute, even if for many reasons, she has a great estrangement from her master, but she still has a deep affection for cultivating her master, and she will not turn her back on her master because she is now captured.

Qing Xuan and the others had no choice but to find an exit from others. However, the other Jindan monks are basically characters on the fringes of the Lingying faction, otherwise they would not have been thrown out by the sect as cannon fodder. So after working hard for many days, I still didn't get any useful clues, so I had to temporarily imprison these people here, and there was no other way.

It's not that no one has proposed to dispose of all these people, and there is a certain danger in taking up space. If one day, some of them break free from the shackles and escape, it will be a great disaster for Lingshan.

However, this proposal was rejected by most of the stewards, after all, they were all monks, and since they were already prisoners, there was no need to be so careless about human life. Moreover, these people are all Jindan monks, maybe there will be other uses in the future, and it would be a pity to dispose of them hastily.

This is what the people of the Cultivation Federation think, if they are people from other sects, if they capture people who are useless to themselves but have a certain threat, they would like to be disposed of immediately, so as not to find disasters in the future. However, most of the casual cultivators know that cultivation is not easy, and they are already Jindan stage monks, and if they are captured by others, they will be killed, and they feel aggrieved when they think about it.

These people were put in the dungeon like this, neither tortured nor coerced and enticed, and they were hung in this way, which made these people feel a little uneasy in their hearts, and they couldn't figure out what Lingshan was for. Chun Yuxia naturally has no obstacles in her heart, after all, she has already died once, and she is already disheartened by her master, if it weren't for the protection of these inner disciples who are good friends with her, she would not be threatened to come to the front line as cannon fodder.

To say that the things she is hiding in her heart are really too appalling, if it were someone else, she might not be so cold-hearted, but that person is her master, the head of the Lingying Sect, one of the five major sects in Beihai! In fact, her master does not have conclusive evidence to prove that Chun Yuxia knows his secret, but he just suspects it, and he wants to put Chun Yuxia to death. Fortunately, Chun Yu Xia is not a good cultivator, and he is already a monk of Jindan Consummation, and he can reach the Yuan Infant Stage if he goes further, although this step is far away, but he can still be regarded as having the power of self-preservation.

Moreover, the head of the Lingying Sect is not one hand in the sect, and there are seven elders in the Yuan Infant Stage outside to fight against him. Even after so many years of infiltration and wooing, he only brought three of the seven elders to his side, and on the other side, there were four Yuanying cultivators with higher cultivation who were secretly vying for power and profit with them.

Of course, this is also the reason why Chun Yuxia chose the Lingying faction camp on the side of the Imperial Hall. This big camp happened to be a place where the head of the sect could not reach, and it was completely controlled by Elder Du in the palm of his hand, and the tentacles of the head of the house could not reach here, so she didn't have to worry about being harmed by the head of the sect in secret.

If she hadn't been clever and cautious, she would have fled to the Torture Hall Elder before the head of the sect made trouble, maybe she would have been secretly killed by the head of the sect, where could she survive for so long. However, even if he can escape the blow in the dark, the Yang Mou of the head of the family can't dodge. After all, she made a mistake, not to mention the confrontation with the master for no reason, and also gathered a group of inner disciples to fight with the personal disciples of the other masters, breaking the rules. Therefore, the Torture Hall Elder couldn't protect her, so he had to arrange a large battalion on the front line for her to avoid the blows of the master.

Even so, she didn't tell the secret she knew, because once this secret was revealed, it was impossible to say that the entire Lingying Sect would suddenly be torn apart, and she didn't have conclusive evidence, just based on what she had secretly watched, she couldn't identify the head directly.

But she didn't know how long this secret buried in her mind could be kept, after all, this secret was too terrifying.

Yu Qi was in Qin Guan's cave mansion, waiting for Qin Guan to finish meditating, he took a sip of tea with some backgrounds, refused the disciples who served on the side wanted to refill his cup diligently, lowered his head and began to ponder.

He didn't let him wait long, Qin Guan came out of the clean room, and when he heard that Yu Qi had been waiting for him for a long time, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that something happened to Lingshan again? Therefore, after just resting for a while, he came to the middle hall to see Yu Qi.

As soon as they met, Yu Qi was still bowing his head and pondering, Qin Guan was already standing in front of him, and he didn't let him wake up. Qin Guan was helpless, so he had to lightly knock on the table in front of Yu Qi twice, so that Yu Qi suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted him.

Qin Guan waved his hand, asked him not to be polite, sat on the chair and said, "How many times have I told you, don't be polite." Our Sanqing Palace is not as good as other places, there are not so many vulgar rites. As long as there is respect in the heart, this etiquette is the same. ”

Yu Qi didn't think so: "Although the palace master's words are reasonable, but as an elder, I am also the disciples' teachings, and I can't set a bad example for them." Although this salute is only a formality, it is very important for the disciples to cultivate the concept of respecting the teacher and respecting the way, and should not be neglected. ”

Qin Guan pursed his lips and said with a slight smile: "Elder Yu, what you said is becoming more and more like Elder Qingxuan!"

Yu Qi scratched his head embarrassedly, he did learn this from Qing Xuan, but he agreed with Qing Xuan's concept very much, and he really felt that this truth was true.

Qin Guan shook his head: "Okay, let's not talk about this." What happened today, could it be that something happened on the Sword Pavilion's side, or is there something else in the Spirit Mountain that can't be solved?"

Yu Qi smiled bitterly: "Palace Master, I don't often look for you to solve problems, why do you have such an idea when you see me?"

Qin Guan smiled and said nothing, Yu Qi didn't move, and said directly: "This matter is also strange, I have discussed it with Elder Qingxuan for a long time, and I haven't guessed what the reason is, so I want to ask the palace master to come and counsel." ”

"Oh, is there anything else that neither of you can think of?" Qin Guan was curious.

Yu Qi cautiously waved his hand at the two disciples serving in the middle hall, signaling them to go outside and guard, and then transmitted a message to Qin Guan and said, "Palace Master, this matter still starts with the foundation building period monk who was caught by Elder Gu. The monk said that among the inner disciples of the Lingying Sect who were caught by us, one of them was a personal disciple of the head of the Lingying Sect, and he was originally very respected by the head, but he didn't know why he turned away from the head of the Lingying Sect and provoked a lot of trouble among the Lingying Sect, so he was sent to the front line.

Elder Qingxuan and I were worried about what conspiracy was behind this Jindan monk, so we wanted to interrogate the female cultivator, but the female cultivator was very strong and refused to say anything. Moreover, she was very respected and trusted by the other inner disciples, so no one was willing to tell the truth at all.

However, the monk named Du Min said that this Jindan monk named Chun Yuxia seemed to know some great secret. The inside story of this matter was not clear to even Du Min's ancestor, Elder Du, and Du Min only knew about it because he overheard Chun Yuxia and another Jindan monk secretly talking. ”

"Secret? What kind of secret can make a monk in the Jindan stage estranged from his master who is in charge of the Yuanying Perfection Realm, or even part ways?" Qin Guan scratched his chin and pondered in his heart.

First of all, he could conclude that it must not be because of the struggle for power and profit among the sects, otherwise it would be impossible for Chun Yuxia not to take refuge on the side opposite the head of the Lingying faction.

Secondly, he could also judge that this matter must be not small, and it was related to the life and death of the Lingying Sect, otherwise Chun Yuxia would not have gathered a group of unpopular inner disciples by his side, she was worried that her strength alone was too small and she could not save her own life.

"Well, that's interesting. But this female cultivator is really cautious, and the people she is wooing are all marginal people, and her ability is not bad, she can actually make these people who are similar to her cultivation obey her. Qin Guan said.

Yu Qi also nodded: "Yes, palace master." Moreover, there must be some earth-shattering secret in this, otherwise, how could the head of a sect have no way to deal with a disciple of the Jindan period, and the difference between the cultivation realms of two people is so big that it can be solved with a little finger, why do you have to go to great lengths to send people to the front line? This is really unreasonable!"

Qin Guan smiled and said, "You're blind, Elder Yu." ”

Yu Qi leaned forward slightly, and asked curiously, "Palace Master, what is the solution?"

"It's not difficult to guess this matter, the head of the sect must be a person who has attracted attention inside and outside the sect, and his every move will be watched, so it is naturally not good to take action directly. And Chun Yuxia is a disciple of Jindan Consummation, and it is just a calamity away from the early stage of Yuanying, and it is not so easy to take it down, so in order not to make a noise, it is natural that he can't do it on the bright side. However, listening to what you just said, the foundation building monk named Du Min also said that the relationship between this master and his master is not very harmonious, and he must be in two camps, and how can sending a disciple who betrayed him to the other party play the role of cutting off this disciple? Therefore, there must be someone among them who secretly helped this female cultivator named Chun Yuxia. Qin Guan said firmly. The facts are exactly what he said, but the deeper reasons, such as what could make a disciple of the head of the sect, or even a monk Jindan who is very likely to run for the next head of the sect, take a risk and defect from the master who has trained him for many years?

Yu Qi couldn't think of the reason, he and Qing Xuan had guessed what kind of ideas they had, but none of them could make sense, so he came to ask Qin Guan for support, but it seemed that Qin Guan didn't have any special ideas.

Qin Guan said: "Interesting, since that's the case, let me go and see it for myself." Maybe for the sake of me being a Yuan Infant Monk, this nun will be able to tell the truth?"

Yu Qi didn't object on his face, but he didn't have hope for Qin Guan's trip in his heart, he didn't even recognize his master, how could he tell you as an outsider? But since Qin Guan had already spoken, he didn't say anything more, and there was no problem in trying anyway.

Yu Qi led Qin Guan to the dungeon of the Sword Pavilion, and many monks were saluting Qin Guan along the way, but no one came up to greet him, thinking that he saw Yu Qi, who was usually smiling, but now his face was full of seriousness, thinking that something had happened, so naturally he didn't dare to delay their important matter. In fact, Yu Qi was thinking all the way, so naturally he didn't notice his expression.

When he arrived at the dungeon, Qin Guan asked Yu Qi to wait at the door, and came to the outside of Chun Yuxia's prison alone, and looked at Chun Yuxia in the cage, Qin Guan couldn't help but praise: "What a woman with a good temperament!" He has seen beautiful women, whether it is on the Internet or TV in the previous life, beautiful women can often be seen, or in the world of Tianyuan, Gu Qinfang, Gu Weirui and others have their own merits, and the monk himself has a special temperament, so it is naturally different from the beauty of ordinary people. But none of these people made Qin Guan want to get close, but Chun Yuxia was different, and he attracted Qin Guan at a glance, which made him feel that "as soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world".
