Chapter 62: The Target of Public Criticism

Chapter 62: The Target of Public Criticism

Duan Qing's heart suddenly jumped when he heard this!

When he heard the name Situ Xiangnan, he immediately remembered what his master San Yan said to everyone in Yanfeng.

Ma Liangnai died at the hands of Situ Xiangnan!

So much so that the name Situ Xiangnan kept echoing in his mind instead of answering along with everyone else!

As soon as he came to his senses, he saw the leader, Master Bai Hua, pointing at him and asking him why he was here, which immediately made his heart beat wildly.

The first reaction in Duan Qing's mind was, did the leader suspect that Elder Li's death was related to him?

No! Duan Qing immediately realized why Master Bai Hua would ask this!

Mostly because of that Situ Xiangnan!

As we all know, Yanfeng's senior brother Ma Liang died at the hands of Situ Xiangnan, and he entered the sect with Ma Liang's Golden Xuan Order.

Now that he had just entered the sect, he came to the spiritual mine to take turns. It happened that the elder was taking turns at this time, and he died tragically at the hands of Situ Xiangnan.

It would be difficult for anyone else not to associate him with this matter.

Duan Qing figured out the reason in an instant, and couldn't help but secretly groan in his heart, this was really yellow mud falling into his crotch, it was either shit or shit!

Now Duan Qing has no other choice but to bite the bullet and answer truthfully. "My master is thinking that Senior Sister Lu Ying has just broken through the mortal realm and her realm is not yet stable, so she sent a special disciple to take turns on her behalf for one year!"

After saying this, Duan Qing sighed secretly in his heart. This was the best answer he could think of, and it also happened to be the most true answer.

As long as it is proven that his motive for coming to the spirit mine was that he could not disobey his teacher's orders, rather than taking the initiative to join the army, then he might be able to clear away the suspicion!

Master Bai Hua was unmoved after hearing this, his eyes still staring coldly at Duan Qing, and the atmosphere in the venue suddenly dropped to freezing point.

Everyone's eyes fell on Duan Qing, as if they believed him to be the murderer.

Su Yutong looked at Duan Qing's thin figure and hesitated to speak. Finally, he sighed secretly in his heart and said nothing.

Although she did not believe that this matter was related to Duan Qing, firstly, she did not have any evidence, and secondly, she was afraid of rashly intervening in the matter and implicating her master. You must know that the person who died was an elder who asked the state of mind. Any inappropriate words would be It may cause fire.

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded. "Elder Zhou's disciple, where is Qian Datong now?"

Everyone immediately looked at the speaker, who was Xuan Jing, whom Duan Qing hated.

Master Bai Hua, the master, also cast a doubtful look at Xuan Jing, and saw Xuan Jing glance at Duan Qing and explain lightly. "Qian Datong is one of the disciples on duty this time, and he is not here yet!"

The purpose of Xuan Jing's words is obvious, he wants to tell everyone that there is still one person who has not shown up yet. Compared with Duan Qing, who has just started and has a low level of cultivation, he is more suspected of having Qian Datong who has cultivated in the Mortal Realm!

He knew very well in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with Duan Qing. He had already felt guilty for Ma Liang's death at the hands of his foster father. Now that the people guided by Senior Brother Ma were in trouble, he couldn't stand by and watch!

Duan Qing couldn't tell how he felt at this moment. He didn't expect that among all the people present, the person he hated the most could actually stand up and speak for him.

It seems that I misunderstood this guy before!

He was a little moved in his heart. In fact, he wanted to remind everyone that Qian Datong was not involved in this, and then transfer the suspicion to Qian Datong.

But he just can't do that!

Once he tells this matter, it will aggravate his suspicion. Why didn't anyone notice it, but you did? Maybe they would also suspect that he and Situ Xiangnan worked together to kill Elder Li and Qian Datong.

Secondly, and what he was most worried about, was that Qian Datong was indeed dead, and he was indirectly killed by him.

At this time, in the presence of the two Mingjing Masters, if he dares to raise money to ask about the Mingjing Mighty's unfathomable cultivation, he will definitely be caught on the spot if he makes a slight mistake in his words.

This was one of the reasons why he could only tell the truth just now.

But if someone else said this, the situation would be different!

In this situation, those who were not present must be the most suspicious. Everyone would probably suspect Qian Datong, who together with Situ Xiangnanliyingwai killed Elder Li and escaped far away.

Anyway, Qian Datong is also dead, and there is no evidence of his death. Moreover, his body is still at the bottom of the mysterious and unusual water cave, making it extremely difficult for anyone to find him.

Sure enough, as soon as Xuan Jing finished speaking, everyone began to whisper.

"Hey, that's right! Where has Senior Brother Qian gone?"

"Could it be that Senior Brother Qian and Situ Xiangnan are in the same group?"

"Nonsense! In my opinion, Senior Brother Qian was also harmed by that Situ Xiangnan!"

The leader, Master Bai Hua, was also a little uncertain at this time. He originally guessed that the new disciple who had joined the sect was suspicious.

But now that Xuan Jing mentioned it, Qian Datong, who was missing, was indeed more suspicious.

At this time, Master Qingchen beside him shouted to everyone. "Shut up, has anyone seen Qian Chase?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and then someone whispered. "It seems that I saw Senior Brother Qian going to the Spiritual Mine half a year ago."

Then someone else echoed. "Well, that's right, I saw it too!"

At this time, someone suddenly squeezed forward from the crowd, holding a sound transmission jade slip in his hand, and exclaimed.

"Senior Brother Qian's mark has dissipated!"

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on the man. The leader, Master Bai Hua, looked at the man and asked lightly.

"Who are you?"

The man said excitedly. "Hua Jun Zhenren of Cuizhu Peak, Emperor Pu Lingjun, has met the master!"

Master Bai Hua nodded, stretched out his hand, and the sound transmission jade in Huang Pu Lingjun's hand quickly jumped into his hand.

With a sweep of his mind, he knew that what the disciple said was true, and handed the jade slip to the True Man Qingchen beside him.

True Man Qingchen also checked it and confirmed that what Huang Pu Lingjun said was correct, and nodded and said bitterly.

"Qian Datong is indeed dead, and it should be related to Situ Xiangnan."

The head of the sect, True Man Baihua, did not speak, obviously tacitly agreeing with True Man Qingchen's speculation.

After a moment of silence, True Man Baihua waved his hand and said. "You all can leave, this matter is strictly forbidden to spread."

Everyone hurriedly left the Zhenling Hall as if they had heard a general amnesty, and waited outside the hall for instructions.

Duan Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and took the fool out with everyone else. At present, this hurdle was finally over for the time being. Fortunately, there was that stinky guy to help speak, otherwise his end would be worrying!

Thinking of this, he looked at Xuan Jing in the crowd, and he happened to be looking at him.

Duan Qing couldn't help but cast a grateful look at him.

He saw Xuan Jing nodded slightly to him, which was considered to be his favor.

Duan Qing and others waited outside the Zhenling Hall for almost half an hour.

Suddenly, a red light approached from a distance and stopped at the door of the Zhenling Hall, revealing its true appearance.

It turned out to be the head of Yanfeng, Sanyan Zhenren.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly saluted.

"Hello, Uncle Sanyan."

"Yutong greets Uncle Sanyan."

"....."

Duan Qing saw his master, Sanyan Zhenren, coming here, and somehow felt relieved, and stepped forward to greet him.

"Master."

Sanyan Zhenren glanced at him, nodded slightly, and walked into the Zhenling Hall without saying anything.

Just as Sanyan Zhenren entered, another person flew over from the sky not far away.

After landing, everyone saw who was coming and hurriedly saluted.

"Hello, Elder Zhou."

Duan Qing was stunned, Elder Zhou? Could it be Qian Datong's master?

At the Sanling Meeting a year ago, he vaguely remembered that the fat guy was reported to be under Elder Zhou's seat.

Elder Zhou ignored the crowd and walked directly into the Soul-Suppressing Hall with a gloomy face.
