Chapter 48: Ling Yi's suspicions
"You know?"
Duan De looked at Ling Yi in surprise.
"Her name is Muki. ”
Ling Yi said lightly, his tone calm.
In the past, Ling Yi may have loved Mu Qi to death, but it is not the current Ling Yi.
For him now, the woman in front of him is just a passerby, and he can't make a wave in his heart.
"Oh. ”
Duan De replied sullenly.
Mu Qi's words were enough to answer his question.
I have to say that during this period of time, Ling Yi has indeed become a celebrity in the Burning Sun Sect, and his deeds have been widely circulated among registered disciples and official disciples.
When it comes to Ling Yi, one name that everyone has to mention after tea and dinner is Mu Qi.
Although Duan De had never met Mu Qi, he had also heard of this person's name.
"Ah, it turns out that you are Senior Sister Mu!"
When Wu Yang heard this, it turned out that this woman was Mu Qi, and he hurriedly jumped back three steps and drew a line with her.
Ling Yi couldn't smile bitterly when he saw this action.
In the eyes of everyone in the Burning Sun Sect, there was still an inexplicable relationship between him and Mu Qi, who knew that in Ling Yi's heart, Mu Qi was nothing at all.
"Ling Yi, I ......"
Mu Qi stood up, with pear blossoms and rain on her face, looking sad and pitiful.
"You explain first, with your cultivation, why does it appear in the inner circle?"
Ling Yi didn't eat her at all, the other party's ruthless face when he was just reborn was still vivid.
What he was more concerned about now was why Mu Qi was here, and what was going on with the corpses all over the ground.
It doesn't matter if a Mu Qi is there, the important thing is that there is Lin Yu behind her, and he needs to figure out if the other party's appearance here will have something to do with him.
Duan De and the others looked at each other, and after learning the identity of this woman, they wisely chose to remain silent.
"I ...... It was Senior Brother Lin, he asked these people to protect me to come to the inner circle of the Scorching Sun Forest, it is said that there is a Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring here, if I cultivate in the spring water, it will increase my cultivation speed extremely quickly. ”
Mu Qi said pitifully: "You also know that I have been stuck in the martial arts double for a long time, so this time I also asked Senior Brother Lin to help me break through the realm, and he sent these six martial arts four senior brothers to protect me into the inner circle, but I can't imagine ......"
"Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring?!"
Duan De and Wu Yang exclaimed in unison, and they couldn't tell whether they looked at Mu Qi with envy or not.
"The spring water of the Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring is rich in a huge amount of aura, if a martial artist stays in the spring water to cultivate, it will have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort, your Senior Brother Lin is good to you. ”
Ling Yi sneered, and he also knew something about this Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring.
"It's very nice. ”
Duan De sighed and said, "The spring water of the Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring will lose its aura when it is separated from the spring, so you can only achieve the effect of cultivation by entering this scorching sun forest, but there is a powerful companion beast next to the spring!"
The cultivation effect of the Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring is not only useful for martial artists, but also has a lot of attraction for beasts, so although they know that there is such a magical spring, due to its location, the disciples of the Scorching Sun Sect still rarely choose to cultivate there.
At this time, looking at the six cold corpses on the ground, it was obvious that Lin Yu had sent these six people to protect Mu Qi and let her have enough time to cultivate.
This is also what Lin Yu, a person with an extraordinary status in the Burning Sun Sect, can do.
Duan De also had a Mo Li in their team, who was at the level of breaking through the fourfold and the fifth at this time, and it was obvious that if Mo Li could enter the Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring to cultivate, his chances of breaking through would be greatly improved.
But Mo Li didn't mention this matter at all, and he also knew that Duan De and the others alone would not be able to keep the companion beast, and it was impossible for him to force Duan De and them to do so because of his own selfishness.
"Obviously, you're underestimating the strength of the companion beast?"
Ling Yi looked at the corpse on the ground, suspicious in his heart.
Since that Lin Yu sent these six people as Mu Qi's protectors, he must have taken into account the strength of the companion beasts near the Water Mirror Nine Stacks Spring, otherwise could he have sent these six people to send them to death?
But the situation at this time is that the six masters of the Martial Arts Quadruple are dead, but Mu Qi, who has the lowest strength, is alive and well.
It really couldn't help but make him suspicious.
"No, it could!"
Mu Qi hurriedly said: "The six senior brothers sent by Senior Brother Lin to protect me are very powerful, and they once drove away the companion beasts guarding the Nine Stacks of Water Mirror Spring, but what I didn't expect was that the movement of their battle was too big, and it actually caused a beast tide!"
At the mention of the beast tide, Mu Qi's face was frightened, and his fingers pointed to the interior of the Scorching Sun Forest even more tremblingly.
Everyone followed the direction of her finger, and sure enough, they found the footprints of many large beasts.
There were only a few scattered footprints where they stood, but they could extend further inside, and the further back they went, the more messy they were, and judging from the scene, everyone could really make up a riot beast tide in their brains.
"The six senior brothers protected me and tried their best to escape, and finally escaped to this Yanluogen wall, but the senior brothers were also seriously injured, and I was the only one left......"
Mu Qi's body trembled, obviously still not coming back to his senses in that panic.
"You're lucky, if it weren't for the smell of this radiant root, heh. ”
Ling Yi shook his head and didn't say any more, although he didn't want to see Mu Qi, and there was no need to threaten her when she was in a state of turmoil, in the end, he didn't take Mu Qi in his eyes, for him, it was not worth it.
When Mu Qi was talking about the previous situation, Ling Yi had already used the red fire pupil to investigate.
Not only the tone and expression of Mu Qi when she spoke, but also the chaotic traces that stretched all the way in the direction she was pointing.
There is the red fire pupil, he is the person who can see the farthest and the most clearly in the present.
The trees that were smashed in the distance, and the dried blood that appeared on the ground from time to time, all proved what Mu Qi said.
So was it really an accident?
It was only at this point that Ling Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
The Forest of the Scorching Sun, especially the inner circle separated by Yan Luogen, is really a good place to kill people.
Even if he had the identity of Elder Li's disciple as a cover, this identity was only valid within the Scorching Sun Sect, and if he was here, as long as he did his hands and feet cleanly, who knew what was going on?
So bumping into Mu Qi, who had a relationship with Lin Yu, here had to make Ling Yi more cautious.
"Senior brothers, are you here to do a mission?"
Ling Yi's attitude made Mu Qi feel hopeless, so she turned her head, looked at Duan De and the others, and begged: "Can you ask Senior Brother to escort me back to the Scorching Sun Sect, Senior Sister promises that Senior Brother Lin will definitely not treat everyone badly!"
She is alone, don't say that when she goes back to the Burning Sun Sect, it is unknown whether she can open a path from Yan Luogen.
"This ......"
Duan De frowned, send her back?
The latter sentence that Senior Brother Lin would not treat everyone badly, but it made him a little moved, perhaps, after escorting Mu Qi back, the reward issued by Senior Brother Lin would be higher than the reward for this mission.
So......
He couldn't help but turn his inquiring gaze on Mo Li's body.
