In a mountain forest near the city, there are several houses standing.

Tang Ning's escape light fell, and the doors of the room opened one after another. Several disciples of the Yuan Qian Yizong inside came out to greet him and bowed in salute.

"How are you? Nothing happened recently, right?" Tangning said, walking towards one of the wooden houses.

"Thanks to my uncle, everything is fine." Chen Xiaofan replied.

Several people entered the room, and Tang Ning took a seat above him: "You have been here for a year, but have you had any contact with the disciples at the "Huanyuan Pavilion"?"

"Uncle, no, Junior Sister Wang once suggested informing them, but everyone rejected it. Over the past year, we have been practicing here, only going to the "inner market" occasionally, and have never been to other places."

"Well, everyone has their own ambitions, and everyone has different choices. There is no need to force it, but there is no need to stay away from each other forever. After all, you are all brothers who are in trouble together." Tangning said, "I didn't tell you the truth before because I was worried about leaks. News and cause unnecessary trouble."

"Actually, I transferred you to the county town because I am worried about your safety, because I suspect that Senior Brother Yin's murder is related to the Xu family."

"Of course, it's just suspicion and there is no evidence. In fact, Ren Qinqing was abducted by the Xu family before she disappeared, and Senior Brother Yin was killed because he was trying to find out the information."

"Now that a year has passed and I haven't seen any action from the Xu family, it's time to tell you."

"I want to send a person back to Huanyuan Pavilion to inquire about the news and see if the Xu family has found any disciples left there to learn about the situation. If not, it means that the Xu family doesn't care about this matter at all, and we don't need to be so worried. ."

"If there is, then we have to be more careful in the future. Who is willing to go there?"

"Disciple is willing to go." Gao Yuan replied.

"Disciple is also willing to go." Yan Qing said immediately, and several others also expressed their opinions.

Tang Ning said: "This matter cannot be done with great fanfare. Are there any of you who are particularly familiar with the disciples who remain in Huantingyuan and whose character is trustworthy?"

"I have a good relationship with Junior Brother Luo Huan who entered the mountain gate together. In fact, he also wanted to come with us at first, but he just didn't make up his mind. I believe that he will never betray our information." Xu Jiayin said.

"Okay, then it's up to you to handle this matter! Remember, you must be careful. If it is exposed, the Xu family may follow the clues to find this place and catch us all."

"Disciple knows."

Tangning turned her hand over and took out ten high-grade spiritual stones and handed them to him: "These spiritual stones will be used as funds for your operation. You immediately secretly sneak back to "Huanyuan Pavilion" and find Luo Huan to inquire about information. You must pay attention to safety. There is no need to rush for success, wait for the right opportunity.”

"yes."

"Gaoyuan, where are the soul stones of your disciples?"

"On the disciple, but when the disciple left the "Huanyuan Pavilion", at the request of other senior brothers, he returned all his life soul stones to them, leaving only the life soul stones of the next five senior brothers."

"Well, leave it to me! I'll keep it now."

"Yes." Gao Yuan turned his hand over and handed him a storage bag.

Tangning took a look inside and saw six one-foot-sized stone boxes neatly placed inside.

"While Xu Jiayin is out, don't stay here. Go to the inn in "Lishi"! It's safe there, and even the Xu family won't mess around in "Lishi". After Xu Jiayin returns safely, It’s not too late for you to leave.”

Several people should claim to be.

"You go ahead! Gao Yuan, you stay for a while."

Several people filed out of the room, leaving only Tangning and Gao Yuan.

"What are your orders, Uncle Master?"

Tang Ning said: "It's nothing, I just have something to tell you. You know that Senior Brother Yin handed over the belongings left by the sect to me. I completed the handover of the belongings last month. Just in case, I left three items. An heir."

"You are the third heir. If anything happens to me, you can try to go to the Property Management Pavilion of the World Chamber of Commerce to take over the property."

Gao Yuan said: "But I am only the third heir. How can I inherit the finances? I wonder who the first and second heirs are?"

"The second heir is Chen Da. It is inconvenient for the first heir to tell you now. If something really happened to me, you can find out through the channels of the Chamber of Commerce. I will use the leader's token and seal as a token, and I will give it to you now. You I need you to keep it safe." Tang Ning turned her hand over and handed him the leader's token and seal.

"This disciple has a low cultivation level and may not be able to live up to the great trust of his master." Gao Yuan held the leader's token and the seal of the Qianyi Sect in his hand and lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"This is just a precautionary measure. It doesn't matter if I lose it. I can go to the Chamber of Commerce to change the token at any time. I believe in Senior Brother Yin's vision. He trusts you so much, which shows that you are a reliable person."

Gao Yuan remained silent.

"What's the matter? If you have anything to say, just say it."

"This disciple has something that has been buried in his heart for a long time. Today I boldly ask, Uncle Master, are you willing to take over the post of head of the Qianyi Sect and lead us to rebuild the sect?"

Tang Ning was speechless for a moment when she saw his resolute face and hopeful eyes.

Seeing him like this, Gao Yuan's eyes gradually dimmed.

Tang Ning patted his shoulders and arms: "Now is not the time to think about these things. Besides, the sect has its own Headmaster Luo in charge, so he doesn't know what's going on right now!"

"Disciple made a bold mistake and I hope your uncle won't be surprised."

"I'm going to leave first. When Xu Jiayin comes back safely, you can go to the Fifth Column station and let me know." After that, Tang Ning left the wooden house and turned into light.

Along the way, his mind kept thinking of Gao Yuan's question just now, and finally he sighed, Xingang, it is impossible for him to go back.

A few months later, Xu Jiayin returned safely, bringing news about "Huanyuan Pavilion". He had found out clearly that all the disciples in Huanyuan Pavilion were fine as before, and had not been questioned or investigated by the Xu family.

Gao Yuan hurriedly informed him of the news. In fact, Tang Ning had already guessed that the Xu family might not have investigated the matter seriously, otherwise things would not have been peaceful all the time.

But after verifying this conjecture, he still breathed a sigh of relief, and a stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

But a new question arises: Was Yin Qingyuan a victim of the Xu family? How did he die?

If they were harmed by the Xu family, then how could the Xu family not react at all when Chen Da and Yin Qingyuan happened one after another?

With their energy, they can easily find out the information about the disciples of the Qianyi Sect of the Li family in Huanyuan Pavilion, and then they can follow the clues and trace them to themselves.

But it's a bit strange that they haven't made any move after such a long time.

Are they too arrogant and dismissive, or are they simply not taking this seriously?

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the Xu family did not connect the two events together. After all, one happened in the county town and the other happened in Huanyuan Pavilion. They are not close or far apart. They are hundreds of years apart. Thousands of miles.

For Tang Ning and others, this is a big deal, but for the Xu family, a golden elixir monk with no background is no more than a wild dog on the roadside, so there is no communication between the two sides. The command of the Xu family in Donglai County

The reporter did not inform Huanyuan Pavilion about Chen Da.

But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that this possibility was slim. After all, the reason why Chen Da made a fuss in the attic of the Xu family in Donglai County was because people from the Xu family in Huanyuan Pavilion robbed Ren Qinqing.

There is no possibility of air leakage on both sides.

Could it be that Yin Qingyuan's death was just an accident? It had nothing to do with the Xu family. Tangning was puzzled.

Anyway, this is a good thing.

Nowadays, Yin Qingyuan has not been seen alive, and his body has not been found after death. Huanyuanting and others are not familiar with the place, so even if they wanted to investigate, they would not be able to find out.

Moreover, since the other party was able to kill Yin Qingyuan quietly, it was beyond their ability to deal with it. They could only put this matter aside for the time being and investigate it slowly when there was an opportunity in the future.

Tang Ning informed Jiang Yuhuan about Xu Jiayin's inquiring about the information. After some discussion, the two decided not to act rashly, and the matter was settled for the time being.

……………

The days passed peacefully. Three months later, on this day, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the room as usual, practicing meditation with her eyes closed.

Footsteps sounded outside, followed by a knock on the door.

He opened his eyes from the trance, stood up and opened the room, only to see two figures standing outside. The first one had a beard and full cheeks. He Yuan, a monk from the Sixth Column and Eighth Alliance, was directly affiliated with a team. Behind him was a senior officer.

Ear man.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, I'm sorry for disturbing you." He Yuanji bowed his head.

"I wonder why my friend is here?" Tang Ning returned the courtesy and asked.

"Let me introduce you, this is monk Xu Jingtian from Sanzongqilian. He has something important to ask you." He Yuan said.

"What's wrong with you, I don't know?" When Tang Ning heard that this person's surname was Xu, she was shocked, but her face remained calm.

"Friend He Dao, thank you very much for your help." Xu Jingyuan did not answer directly, but smiled at He Yuan and said.

"Then I won't disturb you anymore and take my leave." After saying that, He Yuan turned into light and left.
