He and Kong Minghui looked at each other. Kong Minghui was about to activate the formation when he was suddenly interrupted by Shi Xiusheng, "It's useless. Your formation can't trap me! Don't forget, if I die, it will be difficult for everyone here."
Escape to death!"
Kong Minghui slapped his hand and gritted his teeth. This cunning old guy was indeed difficult to deal with.
After all their calculations, they still underestimated Shi Xiusheng's ability!
But they can't leave the hostages alone!
During the stalemate, suddenly, Ling Xuewei, who was being held hostage, said inexplicably, "It should be almost done..."
What?
Everyone looked puzzled.
"Boy! What did you say!"
Shi Xiusheng used force on his hands.
"I said...the poison in your body should take effect." Ling Xuewei said lightly.
poison?
What poison?
The next second, Shi Xiusheng suddenly felt a pain in his chest. It only took him a moment to dazzle him. As soon as he was in the air, Ling Xuewei was pulled over by Su Yuanzhi, and then he received a heavy blow on his chest.
When he came back to his senses, Shi Xiusheng had been subdued by a swarm of disciples.
"What...did you do?!"
Shi Xiusheng vomited out a mouthful of black blood with a sinister look in his eyes.
"I just put some colorless and odorless poison on you." Ling Xuewei said lightly.
"Poison? How is that possible? I'm always careful, how could you have the chance to poison me?"
"You have no chance to find out."
"take away!!"
Kong Minghui waved his hand, and the disciples immediately escorted Shi Xiu-sheng away.
Shi Xiusheng's angry curses could still be heard in the distance, but to Ling Xuewei, they were no longer lethal.
"Are you okay? It's all thanks to you this time."
The two old men came over and Ling Xuewei shook her head.
"How did you poison him?" Kong Minghui was a little curious.
"The poison is on the clothes. If he gets close and smells it, he will be infected."
"Ah? On your clothes? Then I was so close to you, didn't I get tricked too?" Su Yuanzhi shouted.
Ling Xuewei shook her head, "No, this poison needs an inducement."
"What's the trigger?"
"Musk."
"Musky?"
Kong Minghui and Qiu Xinshui looked at each other, and suddenly looked at the incense burner lying on the ground. Could it be...?
"Shi Xiusheng likes to burn incense the most, especially this top-grade musk. Is this what you're talking about?"
Ling Xuewei nodded.
The two were surprised.
"Were you prepared? Could it be that...you knew it was him who attacked you that night?"
Ling Xuewei nodded again.
"Why?"
"Among the outer sect, there are only a few people I have offended. And the only one who has the ability to escape from Su Yuanzhi and the courage to take action inside the sect is Elder Shi who hates me to the core.
Just in case, I made this thing and brought it with me in case of emergency." Ling Xuewei said.
The two elders nodded together.
I have to say that it is really not easy for a boy to have such thoughts at such a young age.
Moreover, in times of crisis, he does not panic or panic. His calmness and composure alone are unparalleled by ordinary disciples.
A hint of admiration flashed in the eyes of the two elders at the same time.
"Then you were so obedient and left with him that day, did you expect this day to happen?"
Qiu Xinshui asked, after all, Ling Xuewei behaved too well that day, which was somewhat inconsistent with her past behavior.
"I do have some doubts, but I'm not sure." Ling Xuewei said.
"Then how did you know that your disciple was lying in ambush outside? And you even tempted him to confess in person, so as to give us a chance to catch him?"
Ling Xuewei looked at the two old men who were questioning each other step by step. She felt a little unhappy and dropped two words perfunctorily, "Intuition."
"intuition?"
The two of them obviously didn't believe it.
However, it was obvious that Ling Xuewei didn't want to say more, so the two of them didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, they felt a little guilty for taking advantage of Ling Xuewei this time, and they just pretended not to know Ling Xuewei's secret.
"The person has been arrested, and this matter is over. You have been wronged these past two days, and I will ask my disciples to escort you back."
"No, I'll send her off." Su Yuanzhi said from the side.
The two of them didn't say anything when they saw this, so they left it to them.
Watching the two people leave, Kong Minghui couldn't help but sigh, "Are we getting old?"
Qiu Xinshui glanced at him.
"Okay, don't lament. There are still many things to be busy with."
At this time, the disciples came out carrying several boxes and said, "Elder Qi, all the things that have been sealed are here."
Kong Minghui glanced at it, "Is this all?"
Isn’t there something wrong with this amount?
"Yes, the disciples have checked it and there are no omissions."
Kong Minghui frowned, "Okay, I understand, go ahead and do your work."
"yes."
"What's wrong?"
Qiu Xinshui came over and Kong Minghui said, "I always feel that this number is a bit wrong, too little, right?"
"Is that so..."
…
Ling Xuewei, who had walked away, looked at the rows of boxes in the space and smiled in her heart.
While he was in the courtyard, Bai Ze used micro bees as a medium to collect two-thirds of the things in Shi Xiu's secret room. The reason why he didn't collect them all was because he was sure that the disciples would search the secret room.
, it would be unreasonable if there was nothing at all.
However, Ling Xuewei was not afraid of those two suspicions. Anyway, they had no evidence that she did it.
Since she was used, she had to get some interest back, right?
"Are you stupid? Are you laughing like this?" Su Yuanzhi's voice drew her attention back, "You are so happy even though you almost lost your life. I really don't know what you are thinking."
Faced with his teasing, Ling Xuewei was too lazy to respond and ignored it.
"By the way, why are you here?" Ling Xuewei asked Su Yuanzhi.
"I went to find Qiu Xinshui," Su Yuanzhi said.
"Oh? What did you say?" Ling Xuewei pretended to be surprised.
"Let you take the inner sect assessment."
Ling Xuewei paused, "What...what...?"
Su Yuanzhi was finally satisfied.
It turns out that there were times when she was so shocked that she was speechless!
It was finally worth all the effort he put into talking to Ling Xuewei.
It took a long time for Ling Xuewei to come back to her senses, "How did you..."
"If they use you as bait, they have to get at least some interest back, right?" Su Yuanzhi blinked at Ling Xuewei. It had to be said that this idea coincided with Ling Xuewei's.
Isn’t there a pile of “interest” just collected in her space?
"Then Mr. Qiu agreed?"
"Of course, just his promise is not enough. If the inner sect fails to meet the requirements for being named in Class A three times, it must be recommended by at least three outer sect elders. There is no problem with Mr. Qiu and Mr. Kong, but the third person
...Shi Xiu-sheng’s position as elder is definitely not guaranteed, and it’s hard to say who will succeed him in the future. We can only wait and see for the time being.”
It turns out there is such a way.
However, the inner sect assessment!
Ling Xuewei's eyes were bright. She didn't expect that she would be able to take the inner sect examination so soon! After all, this was the only way for the outer sect disciples to enter the inner sect.
