The Ten Directions of Heaven and Earth

"What...what the hell is going on?"

There was even more discussion in the crowd. An old man stood up and looked at Xiao Yichen and said, "Three days ago, Xiao Yichen said that he would duel with Ouyang Bai here today. Let us come to bear witness. But now you Tell us to go back quickly, who are you?"

Yichen said, "I said, I have never challenged Xuan Gu. That person is not me at all. Don't doubt or hesitate anymore. Please return to your sect as soon as possible!"

Seeing what he said with such certainty, the crowd finally began to become a little suspicious, and some people began to feel uneasy. Could something happen in the sect? ✸✲

The old man had sharp eyes and asked, "How do you prove that what you say is true?"

Yichen Qingzhi couldn't make sense to this group of people anymore, so he stopped talking nonsense, and with a "clang" sound, he used the Chongxiao Sword. However, when he saw the sword light piercing the air, it was like a thousand-foot-long green light going straight into the clouds, and it dispersed in an instant. Clouds covered a ten-mile radius, and then, the Chongxiao Sword turned into ten thousand feet of sword energy and rushed down towards Pingding Mountain. Under the turbulence of the sword wind, people with slightly lower cultivation levels felt that they could not breathe.

"This...this is the Xuan Qing Tian Zhu Sword!"

But seeing the ten thousand-foot sword energy rushing down, as if it was about to level the entire flat-topped mountain, just when the sword energy was about to arrive, the seal on Yichen's hand changed, dissipating the sword energy, and he stretched out his hand to catch it Zhongxiao Sword flew back and said loudly, "Do you believe what Xiao said now?"

At this moment, some people in the crowd looked shocked, and some looked suspicious. Although they had never seen Xiao Yichen, judging from the Taoist technique that the other party had just performed, it was indeed the Xuanqing Sect's Tianzhu Sword that would not be fake. , and the Xiao Yichen from three days ago, although his movement and sword skills were extremely fast, he did not use any of the Xuan Qing Sect's skills... Oops!

Suddenly, everyone thought of something. If this person here is the real Xiao Yichen, then the Xiao Yichen three days ago, even a fool can see it. This is a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Within three days, all the sects will be killed. All the people were lured to Pingdingshan!

"Quick! Return to the sect quickly!"

At this moment, everyone from each faction was shocked, and they rushed back to their own sect with flying swords. For a moment, strong winds blew, dust flew up, and the sky was blocked. The scene was extremely spectacular.

"Now that we're here, whether it's Xiao Yichen or not, let's decide the winner here today."

Ouyang Bai was not as panicked as the other sects. At this moment, his eyes were still cold and his energy was as heavy as a mountain.

Yichen looked at him and said, "I said, Xiao came here today not to duel with you, and I will not take action against you."

"That's alright." Ouyang Bai flicked his sleeves and said calmly, "I'll wait for that day." As soon as he finished speaking, he touched his feet and turned into a long light, disappearing into the sky.

Yichen stared at the direction he was leaving, and could not help but frowning more deeply, but Guisi came over and asked, "What are you doing now?"

Yichen shook his head, "That person pretended to be me and lured people from various factions to Pingdingshan. He has terrible intentions and must have a secret plan. I am afraid that the Northern Territory will not be peaceful."

Until now, he thought carefully, that person could only attract so many people if he challenged Xuan Gu in his own name. If an unknown person challenged Xuan Gu, how many people could he attract? So this person first released the news that he was going to challenge the Seven Ghosts of the Xuan Valley, and then disguised himself as himself. He defeated the Seven Ghosts of the Xuan Valley three days ago. Only after such a great reputation could he attract more people.

Each step is closely linked, each move is very precise, and he is sure that he will come to Pingdingshan. This person is thoughtful and good at strategy. He is definitely not an ordinary person, and he can disguise himself as himself. Disguising his own voice, then this person must have seen him, who exactly is he...

Yichen couldn't help but feel chills running down his back. Was he really still new to the world? I have been in Xuanqingmen for these years, and I have never seen this dangerous world...

After thinking about it, he said, "Let's go down the mountain now, look back and observe the changes, and then make plans."

"kindness."

Yichen frowned and nodded. He didn't expect this new friend to be so loyal. Now he was worried about one thing. If something happened to the factions in the Northern Territory, would these people involve him? Head up?

It's hard to tell if it makes sense at that time. Only Brother Sique can prove it for him. But Brother Sique has been expelled from Tianmen. Will those people believe his words? Alas, I can only take one step at a time. I didn't expect that I would be in such trouble just after I came down the mountain. When I catch the person pretending to be me, I will make him look good and force him to reveal his purpose!

…

As expected, in the next three days, the entire Northern Territory exploded. Although each sect was not attacked, many sects' collections of books were stolen. Some are sealed fragments of secret books, and some are records of some sects. What if these things fall into the hands of the devil? It was simply worse than being attacked by a demon.

In the past two days, the entire Northern Territory has been in panic. Who is it? How could so many sects' collections of books be stolen quietly in one day? On the day of the decisive battle between "Xiao Yichen" and Ouyang Bai, many people went to Pingdingshan that day, and everyone's attention was focused on the battle at Pingdingshan. Therefore, they were not aware of the theft at the door.

At this moment, we are in a large courtyard, with colorful fallen flowers all over the ground, clear water in the pool, and ancient rocks. The scenery is quite pleasant. Yichen was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, his brows furrowed for three days. Who was that person? Luring people from various sects to Pingdingshan, and then taking the opportunity to steal the books of each sect, he has both strategy and ability. The origin of this person is by no means simple, but what is the purpose of this person?

He thought carefully for a few days and concluded that the other party should not be coveting the skills of various sects. Could it be that he wanted to use this to control the cultivation forces in the Northern Territory? Or should I say, are you looking for something...

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the yard, followed by Gui Sique walking in. Yichen raised his head and asked, "How is it? What can Brother Sique find out?"

Gui Si shook his head, "Those people are coming this way."

"It looks like there's some trouble..."

Yichen gradually frowned again. This matter finally involved him. No matter what, he must clarify the facts as soon as possible. He must not wait for the truth to be late, but the rumors have already taken over the high ground. He must not let it be allowed. Any damage to the Master's reputation.

After a while, the footsteps outside became more and more noisy. It seemed that there were a lot of people coming, but Yichen and Guisi looked at each other. They walked through the corridor and went outside the courtyard. When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, they were greeted by A large group of people blocked the way, about forty or fifty people, all elders from various sects.

He clasped his hands without being disrespectful and said with a smile, "Seniors, here you are, please come in." After that, he waved an invitation to the courtyard.

"No need." The leader, an old man in purple clothes, stood up with sharp eyes and said, "I am here this time because I want to know something from Xiaoyou."

Yichen smiled. It seemed that some of the people who came here were unkind, but his face still showed no disrespect. He smiled lightly and said, "Senior, please tell me."

The purple-clothed old man focused his gaze and said, "As for that day on Pingding Mountain, when little friend Xiao said, 'please go back to your respective sects as soon as possible', did you already know at that time that the books in each sect's collection were stolen?"

Yichen's heart condensed slightly. This question was a bit harsh. If he answered yes, then he would undoubtedly be involved in it. He might end up being said to be secretly conspiring with that person. He smiled and said "That day, I wanted to see what the purpose of the person pretending to be Xiao was. Unexpectedly, this person did not arrive as expected, so I immediately thought of this as a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain. The purpose was to lure people from various factions to Pingdingshan. Xiao At that time, I didn’t know about the theft of books from various sects. I just felt that something was fishy, ​​so I asked everyone to return to the sect to be alert.”

After he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in green clothes on the left snorted coldly, "Since Xiaoyou knows that this person is pretending, why didn't you tell him three days ago? You have to wait until something happens before you come forward. Could it be that you are in the same group with that person?"

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings immediately became quiet, and the atmosphere became particularly solid. Even the several innkeepers who passed by with water basins in the distance lowered their heads and left in a hurry, not daring to stay here any longer.

Yichen looked at the middle-aged man in green clothes and thought that I kindly reminded you to return to the sect immediately, but you said that I colluded with that person. What's the point? But there was no attack on his face. He still had a smile on his face and asked, "You said I was with that person. If Xiao really was with that person, why would I bother to remind you in the end? Xiao could have left as if nothing had happened. , I’ll clarify later that that person is not Xiao, what do you think?”

The middle-aged man in green clothes was about to say something when Yichen said, "Furthermore, all the methods in the world have their own strengths. I, Xuanqing Taoist, dare not say that I am the best in the world, but Xiao will never covet the learning of other sects!" "

The latter sentence was particularly harsh, especially his unmistakable cold eyes at this moment. Even the elders of those sects couldn't help but feel slightly suffocated.

The implication of his words is that the Xuanqing sect's methods are mysterious. He is also a disciple of Lord Yaoguang. What he has learned is already the leader of thousands of families. He doesn't even look down on other sects' techniques, so there is no talk of coveting them. ? This is simply ridiculous. You may not think too highly of yourself.

The atmosphere was cold at this moment. Among the dozens of people here, there was no one who could not hear the thorn in his words. However, Xuan Qing Sect's Taoism was indeed powerful. They had no way to refute at this moment, and even felt a little ashamed.

At this time, Guisi took two steps forward and said with a smile, "I can prove that Brother Xiao has been with me a few days ago. Besides, Brother Xiao is a disciple of Fairy Miaoyin. How could he do anything that harms my right path?" , please tell me, is this true?”

The expressions on everyone's faces were still a little complicated. Yichen said, "Xiao will assist in the investigation of the person behind this incident, but I also hope that all seniors can distinguish right from wrong and find out who is responsible for the trouble as soon as possible. Don't make any suspicions." ”

Both words are neither humble nor arrogant. Are Ling Yin's disciples ordinary Xuanmen disciples? Although they are young, how can they be bullied at will?

People from various factions were also speechless. The old man in purple said earlier, "Okay, it was our words that were inappropriate. I will tell Xiaoyou first. I will carefully identify the person who stole it in the future, and then I will tell you." apologize."

"Senior, your words are serious."

Yichen's eyes were cold, but he couldn't hear the implication of his words. If he could find out, the matter would be solved. If he couldn't find out, he might still be in trouble.
