I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

Chapter 297 Taoist Priest Qinglong
Under the fierce attack of Liuyun Kingdom soldiers, they were quickly defeated and fled in all directions.

Zhao Qi slowly landed on the battlefield and looked at everything around him. His heart was filled with joy and pride. He knew that in this battle, he had made great achievements for Liuyun Kingdom, and also won endless honors for Tianyang Clan.

"Qi'er, you did a good job." Elder Chenguang's voice sounded in Zhao Qi's ears again, "Tianyang Sect is proud of you."

Zhao Qi smiled slightly, his heart full of gratitude. He knew that all of this was inseparable from the cultivation and support of his master and his disciples.

He buried this gratitude deeply in his heart and vowed to work harder to cultivate and seek welfare for all people in the world.

In the military camp shrouded in darkness, a bonfire was blazing, and the soldiers sat in a group, chatting in low voices about the day's battle.

Zhao Qi sat alone by the tent not far away, staring at the dancing firelight with a solemn expression.

"Ceister Zhao, why are you sitting here alone?" A familiar voice broke the silence. It turned out that it was Qin Ming who came over.

Zhao Qi looked up at Qin Ming and forced a smile: "Brother Qin, aren't you still asleep?"

Qin Ming sat next to Zhao Qi and sighed: "Although this war has been won, I feel that things are not that simple."

Zhao Qi nodded and said in a deep voice: "I also feel that something is wrong in the army."

"You mean..." Qin Ming lowered his voice, "Someone is dissatisfied with you?"

"Yes." Zhao Qi nodded, "Since I performed the magic technique, although I have won the respect of the soldiers, it has also aroused the jealousy and suspicion of some people."

Qin Ming frowned: "These people are too ignorant. Without you, they would have become the enemy's target."

Zhao Qi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "People's hearts are unpredictable. Moreover, I also discovered some strange things."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Qin Ming asked curiously.

Zhao Qi looked around and after making sure there was no one else around, he whispered: "I suspect there is a traitor in the army."

"Traitor?" Qin Ming was surprised, "Are you sure?"

Zhao Qi nodded: "Although there is no conclusive evidence yet, I always feel that something is wrong. For example, Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng's behavior is very suspicious."

"Xiang Chuanfeng?" Qin Ming frowned, "Isn't he your junior brother? How could..."

"I don't know either." Zhao Qi sighed, "But I feel that he is not that simple. He often acts alone and has secret contact with some unknown people. Moreover, he also behaved a little abnormally during the war."

Qin Ming couldn't help but fell into deep thought after hearing Zhao Qi's words. He knew that Zhao Qi was not a person who liked to make groundless suspicions. Since he said so, there must be a reason for him.

"Then what are you going to do now?" Qin Ming asked.

A trace of determination flashed in Zhao Qi's eyes: "I want to investigate this matter secretly and I must find this traitor."

Qin Ming nodded: "Okay, I support you. If you need help, just tell me."

The two chatted for a while, and then went back to their tents to rest. However, Zhao Qi couldn't fall asleep while lying on the bed.

He knew that the coming days would be more difficult and dangerous. But no matter what, he must persevere, for the sake of Tianyang Clan and the people of Liuyun Kingdom.

Early the next morning, Zhao Qi got up and started busy. While handling military affairs, he secretly observed the movements of the people around him. However, throughout the whole day, he found no valuable clues.

In the evening, Zhao Qi was walking alone on the path outside the military camp. He was a little irritable and anxious and didn't know what to do. At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed out from the side.

"Senior Brother Zhao Qi!" the visitor shouted in a low voice.

Zhao Qi took a closer look and saw that it was Yi Wuxiao and Zhang Youyuan. They walked up to Zhao Qi with mysterious faces, looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then said, "Brother, we heard that you have encountered some trouble recently?"

Zhao Qi smiled bitterly: "You are quite well informed."

"That's natural." Yi Wuxiao smiled proudly, "Senior brother, your business is our business. Tell me, what do you need us to do?"

Zhao Qi looked at the two of them and felt warm in his heart. He knew he was not alone. So, he told the two of his doubts and plans.

After listening to Zhao Qi's words, both Yi Wuxiao and Zhang Youyuan showed solemn expressions.

They knew this was a serious matter and had to be handled with caution. After some discussion, the three decided to work together to investigate the matter.

In the following days, Zhao Qi, Yi Wuxiao and Zhang Youyuan began to cooperate closely.

They used their respective expertise and advantages to investigate secretly in the military. Although they encountered some difficulties during the process, the three of them resolved them one by one with wisdom and courage.

The night was as dark as ink, and a cold moon hung high in the sky. In the military camp, the soldiers had already fallen asleep, and only a few sentries were still patrolling vigilantly.

However, in this seemingly peaceful night, a sense of conspiracy is quietly spreading.

In a corner of the military camp, several figures gathered together furtively. They were spies sent by the Spirit Sword Sect. They looked cunning and discussed in low voices how to frame Zhao Qi.

"That boy Zhao Qi is now very popular. We must find a way to get rid of him." A secret agent said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, as long as Zhao Qi is eliminated, the Liuyun Kingdom army will be leaderless, and then our Lingjian Sect can seize the opportunity to invade." Another secret agent agreed.

They discussed it and decided to spread rumors that Zhao Qi was a spy of the enemy country in an attempt to undermine the unity of the army. In order to make the rumors more realistic, they also deliberately fabricated some so-called "evidences".

Early the next morning, rumors about Zhao Qi began to spread in the military camp.

The soldiers talked a lot, and their attitude towards Zhao Qi also changed subtly. After Zhao Qi learned the news, his heart sank. He knew that someone was deliberately framing him.

"Ceister Zhao, have you heard? There are rumors outside that you are a spy of the enemy country." A soldier walked up to Zhao Qi cautiously and said.

Zhao Qi looked at the soldier and smiled bitterly: "Do you think I am a spy?"

The soldier hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know, but I believe you are not that kind of person, Strategist Zhao."

Zhao Qi patted the soldier on the shoulder: "Thank you for trusting me. These rumors are deliberately spread by someone to destroy the unity of our army. We cannot be fooled by them."

However, the rumors did not stop spreading because of Zhao Qi's explanation. On the contrary, it is getting worse. Even some generals began to be suspicious of Zhao Qi. Zhao Qi knew that he had to find out who was behind the rumors as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, Zhao Qi began to investigate the matter secretly. He used his wisdom and strategy to quickly discover some clues. These clues point to one person - Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng.

Zhao Qi was shocked. He couldn't believe that his junior brother would betray him. However, with the facts before him, he couldn't help but not believe it. Zhao Qi decided to question Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng personally.

He found Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng and asked directly: "Xiang Chuanfeng, are you spreading the rumors outside?"

Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng was stunned for a moment, then showed a cunning smile: "Senior Brother Zhao Qi, what are you talking about? How could I spread rumors to frame you?"

Zhao Qi looked at him coldly: "You still want to deny it? I already have conclusive evidence that you are the mastermind behind spreading rumors."

Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Senior Brother Zhao Qi, you misunderstood. I did this all for your own good. Do you know? Someone wants your life. I just want to help you expose their conspiracy in advance."

Zhao Qi sneered in his heart after hearing what Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng said. He knew that Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng was deliberately making excuses and trying to confuse the public.

However, he did not expose Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng's lies on the spot. Because he knew that now was not the time.

He decided to use his tricks and use Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng's lies to lead out the real mastermind.

He deliberately pretended to believe what Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng said and expressed his gratitude to him. Then he secretly observed the movements of Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng, hoping to follow the clues to find out the real enemy.

However, things did not go as smoothly as Zhao Qi imagined. Junior Brother Xiang Chuanfeng seemed to be aware of Zhao Qi's intentions and began to become cautious.

His whereabouts also became more mysterious, making it impossible for Zhao Qi to track his whereabouts.

The night is getting darker, and the lights in Liuyun Kingdom's military camp are brightly lit. Zhao Qiduan sat in the tent, frowning, with a military map spread out in front of him.

Recent rumors and suspicions have made him feel unprecedented pressure. Although he remained calm on the outside, deep down he was in turmoil.

Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew in my face, and the curtain of the tent was gently lifted.

A figure with an immortal spirit walked in, it was Taoist Priest Qinglong who came from the world of cultivating immortals. He was wearing a green robe and holding a whisk in his hand. His beard and hair were all white, but his face was ruddy and he looked energetic.

"Young friend Zhao Qi, you are well." Taoist Master Qinglong greeted with a smile.

When Zhao Qi saw that it was Taoist Master Qinglong, he was overjoyed. He quickly stood up and saluted: "Junior Zhao Qi, I have met senior Qinglong. Senior is here. I am sorry that I missed you from afar. I hope you will forgive me."

Taoist Master Qinglong waved his hand, indicating that Zhao Qi did not need to be polite: "I heard that my little friend has encountered some troubles recently, so I came here to help."

Hearing this, Zhao Qi felt warm in his heart and told Taoist Qinglong everything about what happened recently.

After hearing this, Taoist Master Qinglong frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "These rumors and suspicions are obviously deliberately caused by someone. Have you ever thought about how to deal with them?"

Zhao Qi smiled bitterly and said: "Although I have thought of some solutions, I still feel that they are not comprehensive enough. I am very wise, I hope you can give me some advice."

Taoist Master Qinglong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This matter is not difficult to say, but easy to say. The key is to find the source of the rumors and then defeat them in one fell swoop. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen communication with other generals to resolve them. Doubts in their minds.”

After hearing this, Zhao Qi's eyes lit up and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, senior, for your advice. I will definitely follow it."

Taoist Priest Qinglong nodded and said: "In addition, I need to remind you one more thing. When you are in the military, you will inevitably encounter various temptations and traps. You must keep a clear head and a firm belief, and never Being taken advantage of by others.”

Zhao Qi nodded solemnly: "Junior, please remember the teachings of our seniors."

Taoist Priest Qinglong was very pleased to see Zhao Qi's sincere attitude. He patted Zhao Qi on the shoulder and said, "Okay, it's getting late. You can go and rest. Early tomorrow morning, I will go with you to find the source of the rumors."

Zhao Qi burst into tears and thanked him profusely. Taoist Master Qinglong smiled slightly, turned around and walked out of the tent.

Early the next morning, Zhao Qi and Taoist Qinglong began an investigation.

After some twists and turns, they finally found the source of the rumors - a soldier bribed by the enemy.

The soldier confessed everything under torture. Zhao Qi and Taoist Priest Qinglong followed the clues and caught all the traitors hidden in the army.

The rumors were dispelled, and the unity of the military was once again consolidated. Zhao Qi's reputation also reached its peak. He looked at Taoist Qinglong with gratitude and bowed deeply: "Thank you, senior, for your help. I will never forget this."

Taoist Master Qinglong helped Zhao Qi up and said with a smile: "My friend, there is no need to be polite. I came to help this time in compliance with God's will. Now that the crisis has been resolved, it's time for me to go back to the mountain to practice."

Zhao Qi reluctantly bid farewell to Taoist Master Qinglong. He knew that the crisis could be resolved this time thanks to the help of Taoist Master Qinglong.

The moonlight is like water, and the ancient pines outside Tianyang Gate are swaying gently in the night wind. Zhao Qi stood alone on the edge of the cliff, looking at the mountains in the distance, feeling an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

The wars and disputes over the past few days have made him feel physically and mentally exhausted.

At this moment, a purple ray of light fell from the sky and slowly fell in front of Zhao Qi.

The glow dissipated, revealing a fairy dressed in purple. She had a beautiful face and elegant temperament, just like Chang'e descending from the moon palace.

"Are you Zhao Qi?" Fairy Ziyi asked, her voice as beautiful as the sound of nature.

Zhao Qi was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hands and saluted, "That's right. I wonder if the fairy has arrived, what advice can you give me?"

Fairy Ziyi smiled slightly and said: "I am Fairy Ziyun, from a mysterious sect in the world of immortality. I heard that you performed outstandingly in this war. Not only were you wise and brave, but you also resolved many crises."

Zhao Qi's heart moved when he heard this. He had long heard of various legends about the world of immortality and knew that it was a world full of mystery and fantasy.

But he also knew that once he entered the path of cultivating immortality, it meant giving up everything in the world and pursuing the illusory realm of immortality.

In the following days, Zhao Qi dealt with military affairs while thinking about his future.

He would often stand alone on the edge of the cliff in a daze, looking at the mountains in the distance. Whenever this happens, an inexplicable impulse and desire will surge up in his heart, wanting to drop everything and pursue the illusory path of cultivating immortality.
