Within Tianshui Sect, the island where Zhou Xinjun lives.
When Zhou Xinjun had just returned from the Water Mirror World, without even caring about healing his injuries, he felt someone entering the island.
Zhou Xinjun immediately picked up his spirits, packed his clothes, and walked out.
Zhou Xinjun became famous a thousand years ago. He was a figure of the same era as Mu Huaqing. He had no longer been active in the sect and had been practicing in the mountains all year round.
Apart from Mu Huaqing, he doesn't have many new friends.
There are only a few warriors who can freely enter and leave the island where he lives without being blocked by the magic circle, including his master, senior brother, third junior brother Mu Huaqing, and junior junior brother Li Yuanzong.
Only four people can freely enter and leave his island. Now that Mu Huaqing is dead, this number has been reduced by one.
Zhou Xinjun packed up his clothes, rose into the air, and appeared on a cliff.
There is a pavilion built on the cliff. At this moment, there is a white-haired old man in the pavilion, standing with his hands behind his hands, looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers in the distance.
"Master."
Zhou Xinjun stepped forward and bowed humbly.
"Did you go to the Demon Refining Tower to find Lin Bai?" The great elder didn't even turn around, he just asked coldly.
"Yes! I can't let the third junior brother die in such an unclear way!" Zhou Xinjun, of course, did not defend himself and answered bluntly.
"Is Lin Bai dead?" The great elder's voice contained no emotion or anger.
"No!" Zhou Xinjun shook his head and said.
The First Elder chuckled softly and said: "It's the talent that is better than the talent. I didn't expect that Lin Bai is so young and has so many tricks. Even you can't do anything to him!"
"You're injured." The elder turned around and saw Zhou Xinjun's face was pale and out of breath, obviously seriously injured.
"I suffered some minor injuries! But they were not injured by Lin Bai." Zhou Xinjun said hurriedly.
"What happened?" the great elder asked with a frown.
Zhou Xinjun told the great elder what happened in the Demon Refining Tower in detail, and said: "I believe that Elder Zheng Yuan is meeting with the sect master in Fushui Hall at the moment. It won't be long before the sect master summons the master to discuss matters."
The Great Elder heard everything that happened in the Demon Refining Tower. He was not too nervous. Instead, he looked extremely calm and said: "There are only two or three remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace in the Demon Refining Tower."
"Although they have managed to survive to this day by using secret techniques, their past cultivation levels are no longer intact. Even if the Water Sect is in decline now, they don't dare to break out easily!"
“Nothing to be afraid of!”
After hearing the great elder's analysis, Zhou Xinjun nodded slightly, but his expression was extremely complicated, and he felt like he was hesitant to speak.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hesitate." The elder saw Zhou Xinjun's unspeakable secret and said immediately.
"Master, when I went to the Demon Refining Tower this time, I met Lin Bai." Zhou Xinjun hesitated for a moment and said.
The great elder sneered and said, "Then what do you think of him?"
"Young heroes are rare to see in ten thousand years!" Zhou Xinjun narrowed his eyes, recalling Lin Bai's methods in Tianzhu Peak, and said: "This person is the best in terms of cultivation, means, strength, and scheming.
Contemporaries!"
"At least in today's Tianshui Sect, except for the senior brother, I am afraid that no one can compete with him!"
The First Elder nodded slightly, as if thinking of something in the past, sighed softly, and said: "When Lin Bai wielded his sword to settle accounts with Li Yuanzong, I saw Lin Bai's strength on Shuixin Island!"
"At that time, I judged that the position of Holy Son of Tianshui Sect in the future would inevitably be chosen between Lin Bai and your senior brother. Apart from this, no one in Tianshui Sect can shoulder the heavy responsibility."
"So after that battle, I ordered your junior brother Li Yuanzong to withdraw from being a candidate for the Holy Son."
Zhou Xinjun nodded slightly and asked: "Master, has the sect investigated the murderer of the third junior brother?"
The First Elder frowned, looked at Zhou Xinjun strangely, and asked, "Why are you asking this? Wasn't it your third junior brother who died in Lin Bai's hands?"
Zhou Xinjun frowned and said in a low voice: "Master, when I went to the Demon Refining Tower this time, I met Lin Bai and saw his actions. I think... although Lin Bai is not a gentleman, he doesn't look like a villain either.
people!"
Hearing Zhou Xinjun's words, the great elder suddenly looked unhappy and snorted, which made Zhou Xinjun tremble all over.
Although he could see that his master was displeased, Zhou Xinjun still wanted to finish his words because it was related to the death of his third junior brother Mu Huaqing. He continued: "After Lin Bai came back from the ancient secret realm, he admitted to killing Wu Di and Qi Liang.
Pan Hun and others, but they only refused to admit that they killed the third junior brother."
"I don't think he's lying!"
"Master, Lin Bai is a swordsman who would rather break than bend. If he really killed the third junior brother, he would definitely not deny it. Since he said that he did not kill him at this moment, I think... have we wronged him..."
Boss Da Chang asked with a face on his face: "If it wasn't Lin Bai who did it? Then who could it be?"
"snort!"
"Xinjun, as you just said, Lin Bai is a young hero who is rarely seen in thousands of years. In terms of scheming and tricks, few people in the Tianshui Sect can match him."
"How could he fool you with just two or three lies?"
"If he didn't kill Mu Huaqing, who would it be?"
"Could it be that your junior brother killed him?"
The great elder asked angrily.
"I..." Zhou Xinjun originally wanted to inform the great elder about Lin Bai's identification of Li Yuanzong.
But looking at the master's expression now, it was obvious that he was convinced that Lin Bai had killed Mu Huaqing.
But Zhou Xinjun was right when he thought about it. No one in the Tianshui Sect would believe that Li Yuanzong would kill Mu Huaqing.
Even less would he believe that Li Yuanzong, the fourth disciple of the Great Elder, would betray the sect!
After much hesitation, Zhou Xinjun did not continue, and planned to investigate it himself.
We must give justice to Mu Huaqing!
"When my disciple left the Demon Refining Tower, he secretly heard that when Lin Bai and Junior Sister Tang Wei went to the Demon Refining Tower, the teleportation array went awry and teleported them to the vicinity of the Ten Thousand Demon Corpse Cave in the Demon Refining Tower!"
"The teleportation circle of the Demon Refining Tower has always been rigorous, and such exaggerated deviations are unlikely to occur. There must be someone behind this..."
"My disciple would like to know whether the deliberate change of the position of the teleportation array was ordered by the master?"
Zhou Xinjun looked up at the great elder and asked.
"No!" The great elder replied simply and straightforwardly: "It was arranged by Wu Xiu and Qi Kun!"
Only then did Zhou Xinjun suddenly realize that in the ancient secret realm, not only Mu Huaqing was dead, but Wu Di and Qi Liang were also dead!
Udi is the son of Uxiu!
Qi Liang is the son of Qi Kun!
Moreover, it is extremely difficult for warriors who have reached the Taiyi Daoguo realm to give birth to children. Wu Di and Qi Liang are their only children.
Being executed by Lin Bai in the ancient secret realm naturally made Wu Xiu and Qi deeply sad.
"Master knew that Wu Xiu and Qi Kun were secretly dealing with Lin Bai, but Master didn't stop them, right?" Zhou Xinjun looked at the elder in shock and asked.
