Chapter 2243 Clues

"Master! Master!"

Someone outside the crowd shouted, and then two women flew over and landed in front of Chen Yuze, their faces full of anxiety.

"Sir, please leave. This matter has nothing to do with us! The master clearly told you not to meddle in other people's business. If anything happens to you, how are we going to explain to the master?"

The two girls were pretty, both dressed in tight clothes. They didn't look like maids, but more like two knights.

Seeing this scene, everyone could guess that the two women must be his personal guards to protect his safety. This Master Chen was indeed a young man from a wealthy family. It was probably his first time traveling outside and he was inexperienced in the world. When he saw the fairy Yuan Jingshan in trouble, his blood boiled and he jumped out.

"Don't talk too much!"

Chen Yuze said righteously, "When you encounter injustice, you should help others! I cannot bear the thought of letting you two fairies suffer!"

He turned to look at Qinghong and the other two girls, his face showing hesitation, "Fellow Daoist You has a point. It is not right for me to step in. However, I am not a coward, but I am worried that I will not be able to explain to my master after returning. Therefore, I have thought of a way, but I will have to inconvenience the fairy..."

At this time, the Qingjiang Sect had already attacked, and their magical powers and treasures shot out, forming rays of precious light that covered the sky and the earth.

Qing Hong and Shuang Luo hurriedly activated the great formation to resist, and asked the disciples to retreat into the mountain gate, saying, "Fellow Daoists, please come in and talk!"

After all, Chen Yuze was on Yuan Jingshan's side and spoke up for justice. Now that the enemy was attacking, it would be too inhumane for Yuan Jingshan to keep them out.

However, Qinghong did not let Chen Yuze go into the mountain directly. Several people hid behind the light column and were protected by the formation. Although the attack outside was fierce, they could not break through the light column for the time being and could not hurt them.

After hearing what Chen Yuze said, Qing Hong and Shuang Luo looked at each other and frowned, saying, "Young Master, why don't you speak frankly? I wonder what method you have?"

Chen Yuze hesitated, but finally mustered up the courage and said, "I am still unmarried, so I dare to ask Fairy Shuangluo, are you married?"

Shuangluo’s expression froze.

"Sir, you are confused! The master will never agree!" The two maids stamped their feet in anger, "The master has already found a good match for you. Is it worth it for a wild woman?"

"presumptuous!"

Chen Yuze shouted angrily, "I can make the decision on my own regarding my lifelong affairs!"

Then, he said to Qinghong and Shuangluo sincerely: "Now that only our two sects have signed a marriage contract, I can legitimately intervene. The two fairies rest assured that I will never take advantage of others' misfortunes. After the matter is settled, I will immediately announce to the world that I have cancelled the engagement with Fairy Shuangluo!"

After saying that, seeing that the two women remained silent, Chen Yuze smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it! I was not thoughtful enough. I am a man and I am not afraid of rumors, but I have insulted the reputation of the fairy."

It sounds like words of sympathy, but it is invisibly putting Shuangluo and Qinghong on the spot. At a time when their master is in danger, is their reputation more important than their master?

"Sister..."

Shuangluo was interrupted by Qinghong just as she started to speak, "Jingchuan caused the trouble. Even if it really came to this, it is not my turn to do it. Before my brother came, he had already sent a message to Senior Zhou for help. If we delay for a while, maybe there will be a turning point."

The two women communicated secretly, but they both knew that there was little hope.

They fled to the Immortal City with the old man Zhou and others. Later, fellow villagers always helped each other. If Yuanjing Mountain was in trouble, the old man Zhou and others would not shirk their responsibilities. The problem was that the eldest brother was stationed not far from Yuanjing Mountain to take care of the sect, while the old man Zhou and others were far away in the Immortal City. When the reinforcements arrived, the master might have been awakened.

As time went by, the Qingjiang faction's offensive was like a tide. The two women were filled with torment and felt that each day was like a year.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. Please allow me to discuss this with my junior sister," Qing Hong said with a bow.

"Humph! A bunch of wicked people!"

The maid was indignant on behalf of the young master and could not help but yell, "The young master risked his life to save you, and you are still trying to make excuses!"

Before he finished speaking, a voice suddenly sounded above their heads.

"Really? Are you really so kind, sir? Why do I feel like they are playing a double game?"

At first the voice seemed far away and faint, but when the last word was uttered, it seemed as if it was right next to their ears.

"who!"

Chen Yuze and the maid felt a chill down their spines.

At the same time, the leader of Qingjiang School and Qi Bo, who were playing chess in the distance, also felt something and became furious.

The next moment, Chen Yuze and the two maids found that they could not move their bodies. They looked up to the sky with horror on their faces.

Suddenly, a huge hand appeared above their heads, casting a shadow over their entire bodies and grabbing towards them with terrifying pressure.

'Snapped! '

The jade pendant on Chen Yuze's waist flew up automatically. This treasure could protect its owner on its own and shattered immediately.

A beast shadow rushed out from the jade pendant fragments, but before everyone could see it clearly, the beast shadow exploded under the heavy pressure, and the roar stopped abruptly, unable to stop the big hand at all.

"stop!"

Another loud roar was heard from the sky, shaking the world.

This was another unfamiliar voice, followed by a stream of white light, faster than lightning, as if it could shatter the void, and instantly reached the sky above Yuanjing Mountain, turning into a long sword and slashing towards the big hand in mid-air.

'boom! ’

There was a loud noise like thunder and the earth shook.

The aftermath of the collision between the palm and the long sword actually formed a group of gray storms that enveloped the sky and lasted for a long time. The sky near Yuanjing Mountain became dark.

Everyone couldn't help but tremble with fear. They vaguely saw two figures in the storm, confronting each other in the sky. There was no doubt that they were both top masters, and the storm was caused by the fight between the two.

"Who are you?"

Qi Bo looked surprised and doubtful.

In his perception, the cultivation level of the person opposite him was obviously not as good as his, but for some reason, he felt a sense of inexplicable threat from him, which made him very puzzled and at the same time fearful.

"Junior brother!"

Qinghong and Shuangluo couldn't help but cry out in surprise when they saw the appearance of the person who came.

They didn't expect that the reinforcement they were waiting for was actually their junior brother, and that his cultivation had reached this level!

Frostfall stared at the figure in the sky in a daze, and then a hint of sadness flashed across his face. The gap between them was getting bigger and bigger.

Qinghong was also surprised and happy. He noticed Shuangluo's expression, sighed secretly, suppressed the churning thoughts in his heart, and gently hugged her.

‘Whoosh! Whoosh! ’

The palm was blocked by Qi Bo. Chen Yuze and the other two escaped death and hurriedly ran behind Qi Bo, looking at Qin Sang hatefully.

"Are you a disciple of Yuan Jingshan?"

Qi Bo looked surprised.

It is said that this young disciple of Master Tongshen is very young and has a wild temper. He stays outside all day and never returns to the sect. Yet he has such an accomplishment. It turns out that the rumors are not credible!

Qin Sang's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and he put a big hat on her, "It seems that you are the mastermind behind this!"

"You have misunderstood, my friend. I am only following orders to protect you. I don't know what you are talking about."

Qi Bo looked calmly at Chen Yuze, "Sir, you are not hurt, are you?"

Chen Yuze shook his head slightly, his face gloomy, and said in a voice transmission: "Can Qi Bo kill him?"

"This boy is no simple matter! And if we kill him, Master Tongshen will fight us to the death, and it will be difficult for us to escape," Qi Bo said.

Chen Yuze snorted. This person showed up unexpectedly. With this person in charge of the Yuanjing Mountain protective formation, their plan might be aborted.

As Qin Sang's identity was exposed, it caused a commotion among the crowd.

The Qingjiang faction's offensive suddenly slowed down.

You Chen had heard of Qin Sang before, but had only heard of his name and had never seen him in person. When he first met him, he was actually a strong man of the same level as his master. He was shocked and felt a little at a loss.

"Misunderstand?"

Qin Sang smiled coldly, his eyes swept across You Chen, and finally fell on the coffin, "The tricks on the corpse can deceive the world, but they can't hide from my eyes!"

You Chen's heart skipped a beat, and his arrogance weakened. "What are you talking about? What's the trick?"

Qin Sang raised his right hand and pointed at the corpse in the air.

The corpse actually sat up automatically, causing a burst of exclamations.

"What do you want to do!"

You Chen shouted angrily.

Qin Sang snorted, "These scoundrels are trying to frame us. They are deliberately imitating my Yuan Jingshan skills and framing us. They don't know that my Yuan Jingshan Taoist tradition is mysterious and there is no way it can be flawless! Look at what this is!"

'call! '

A ball of fire rose from the left side of the corpse, while a cold air like smoke came out from the right side.

The fire and cold air were initially tightly stuck together, but clearly distinct. Soon they entangled with each other and turned into red and blue smoke, spreading in all directions.

Everyone could see that the smoke was coming out of the corpse. Qin Sang was just using some trick to lure it out. It was not some kind of sleight of hand.

When the smoke appeared, Chen Yuze's face became even gloomier.

"What is this?"

Next to the coffin, a Qingjiang Sect disciple raised his hand and grabbed a wisp of smoke.

The next moment, the disciple let out a scream, and a three-foot-high flame shot out from his hand. Under the flame, the other half of his palm was frozen by ice. Water and fire quickly spread along his arm and into his body.

Fortunately, his fellow disciple beside him reacted quickly and cut off his arm with a knife.

'Snapped! '

The arm fell to the ground, half of it was charred and the other half was pale, it was a horrible sight, and it was exactly the same as the way Deacon Xia died.

"This is……"

Seeing this scene, everyone was terrified and tried to avoid the smoke.

"It's poison!"

Qin Sang uttered a word lightly, his eyes intentionally or unintentionally glancing at a certain place in the void, and shouted, "You Chen, why don't you bring the body back to the mountain gate quickly? When your master sees this smoke, he will understand the truth! The real murderer deliberately found this poison to frame our Yuan Jingshan and destroy the relationship between Yuan Jingshan and Qingjiang Sect. It's ridiculous that you don't know the real murderer, but are willing to be driven by the real murderer!"

After a pause, Qin Sang continued, "It is not easy to perfectly control this poison and disguise it as my Yuan Jingshan's magical power. The person who poisoned it is probably not weaker than me. There are only a handful of masters like this in the Qingtuo River Basin. Your master will not poison his disciples, so who is the murderer?"

After saying this, Qin Sang stared at Qi Bo, and the others followed Qin Sang's gaze and looked at Qi Bo.

Under Qin Sang's guidance, everyone's thoughts diverged and they noticed various strange things.

"Humph! I couldn't bear to see the two fairies being bullied, so I stood up for them. Fellow Daoist, you actually doubted me. It's really chilling! Is this how Yuanjing Mountain treats its benefactors? No wonder my father always said that people are treacherous and asked me to go down the mountain to gain experience! Just pretend that I was blind and made a mistake in choosing the right person. Let's go!"

Chen Yuze knew that the more he explained, the worse it would get, so he stormed out.

"These can only prove that Deacon Xia was poisoned to death. It is also true that Lan Jingchuan injured Deacon Xia. And the person who poisoned him may not be someone from your Yuanjing Mountain. My Qingjiang Sect will find out the truth sooner or later!"

You Chen also uttered a few harsh words, and the Qingjiang Sect practitioners carried the corpse down the mountain in disgrace.

The storm was resolved without any warning, and all the outsiders were sent out of the mountain. Qin Sang and others came to the master's hall to discuss matters.

"Thanks to my junior brother for coming back in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous," Qinghong said fearfully.

"Big Brother, do you know the details of Tianjing Sect? Does it have any grudge against us Yuanjing Mountain?"

Qin Sang looked at Qing Yan.

Qing Yan took the pill and his complexion improved slightly, but he was still very weak. He pulled himself together and said, "I've heard about the Tianjing Sect. Its mountain gate is in the Qilin Kingdom in the north, and we don't have much in common with them. I wonder if Master has any grudges against them. I heard that there are also people from the Tianjing Sect working as immortal guards in the Immortal City, and they may have had conflicts with Master."

"That Mr. Chen looks so handsome, but he is actually so sinister! Fortunately, my junior brother uncovered his plot and almost let him trick my junior sister into going over!"

At this point, Qing Hong thought of something and exclaimed, "His real purpose is not to win the heart of Junior Sister, right? Is it true that beauty is the root of trouble?"

Frostfall's little face suddenly turned red.

Qing Hong touched Shuang Luo's cheek and said with a sweet smile, "What a beautiful lady I love. With so many people watching me, you better keep a close eye on me, or I'll be kidnapped someday."

"What are you talking about, Senior Sister?" Shuangluo was embarrassed and annoyed.

"If he really came here for Senior Sister Shuang, he is indeed a playboy! But it seems more like that guy was tempted by her beauty and changed his plan at the last minute, pretending to be a good guy in front of Senior Sister."

Qin Sang said calmly, "Wait for Senior Zhou to arrive and ask him to stay at the mountain gate. I will go out and check the details of Tianjing Sect."

"Junior brother, why don't you keep the man named Chen to interrogate him?" Qing Hong asked.

At that time, Chen Yuze was hiding in the big formation with them. As long as Qin Sang was willing and cooperated with the mountain protection formation, they could completely stop the old man and leave Chen Yuze behind.

"If we arrest this person, the Tianjing Sect will have a reason to attack us in large numbers, which will disturb Master's practice. Moreover, I suspect they have other plans, so I don't want to alert them for the time being." As Qin Sang becomes increasingly powerful, Yuanjing Mountain can no longer help him much. However, if he needs to develop his own power in the future, he can use Yuanjing Mountain as a foundation.

If Master Tongshen and Tianjing Sect had no grudges, then it would be intriguing for Tianjing Sect to target Yuanjing Mountain. Either Tianjing Sect wanted to expand, which involved a conflict of interests, or...

Qin Sang looked at the distant mountains outside the hall and thought of the poison on Deacon Xia's body. That poison was a combination of water and fire poisons. It was very ingenious and could not be made casually.

Could it be that it is because of Yuan Jingshan’s special heritage that it has attracted the attention of interested people?

Could it be that it involves the "Great Theory of the Correspondence of Yin and Yang" and the clue that I have been searching for for years has finally come to me?
