The sudden change made me completely dumbfounded.
I wasn't the only one. The other winners of the competition were also stunned. They turned their heads to look at the internal conflict between the elders. They didn't know what to do.
Not long after, the besieged Corpse Sect Elder was completely outnumbered and was beheaded. His corpse fell to the ground and his corpse puppet also fell to the ground after its master died.
The two people who attacked turned to look at the dumbfounded Lin Xue and unhesitatingly took out their magic tools.
I couldn't bear to do it, but the current situation was strange and Lin Xue wasn't someone who cared too much about me. After thinking for a while, I stood still and remained vigilant. I was prepared to summon the Snake Spirit and Tong Tong at any time.
As the two of them attacked Lin Xue, the corpse puppet standing beside her suddenly let out a roar and reached out to grab Lin Xue. Her body turned into a streak of purple light and flew toward the entrance of the cave they had come from.
Her speed could be said to be peerless. Before anyone could react, her figure had already disappeared from the entrance of the cave.
When she used the Purple Chen Corpse Sect to spy on the sacrificial evil spirit, I knew that she wasn't ordinary, but I didn't think that she would have such a divine ability.
The two people still wanted to chase after her, but Xu Yingqu, who was standing not far from me, suddenly called out, "Two Senior Brothers, don't chase after her. The passage has already been opened. There's less than half an hour before that old monster awakens. We can't waste time chasing after her. That girl won't be able to cause any trouble. It's more important for us to quickly go in and set up the formation."
After saying that, he didn't wait for the two to answer and turned his head to Jiang Dongcheng who was standing in the distance and said, "Little Junior Brother, you also came with us … You don't need to panic, the three of us are your senior brothers from the same sect. Master has already told us about your news.
The three of us have been in the Corpse Sect for at least thirty years. You might have some doubts about our identities, but you should know about our sect's keepsakes. "
After hearing his words, I was completely dumbfounded.
This Xu Yingqu and the two elders of the Corpse Yin Sect were all Jiang Dongcheng's senior brothers?
In other words, they were also the disciples of the old leader?
This … How was this possible!
Jiang Dongcheng's reaction was about the same as mine. He stood there with his eyes wide open. His mouth opened for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.
Xu Yingqu nodded towards the other two elders before the three of them simultaneously took out a folding fan and threw it in front of them. Following that, I saw an even more inconceivable scene.
The moment the folding fan left his hand, it transformed into a lonely mound. There was no tombstone on the mound, only scattered yellow weeds covering it. It looked desolate and dilapidated.
I couldn't be more familiar with this Map of Lonelytomb's Lone Grave. My Square Heaven Fan is the magical artifact that the old president gave me. When I use it, it transforms exactly the same Map of Lonelytomb's Lone Grave!
Xu Yingqu said that this was their sect's token!
What did that mean?
According to what he said, I'm also a member of his sect?
I'm also a disciple of the old leader?
My mind was in a mess. On the other side, Jiang Dongcheng's eyes lit up. He also took out a folding fan, but he didn't take out this magical artifact. Instead, he quickly walked over and excitedly said to Xu Yingqu, "Elder Xu … No, Senior Martial Brother, Master told me that I have five people from the same sect. There are three senior martial brothers above me. Eldest Senior Martial Brother is surnamed Chen and is a bookworm. Second Senior Martial Brother is surnamed Xu and is a destitute butcher. Third Senior Martial Brother is surnamed Zhuge and is a drunkard who loves wine as much as his life. You, you are my Second Senior Martial Brother?"
Just as he finished speaking and before Xu Yingqu could reply, one of the two Corpse Sect Elders standing behind him laughed loudly.
"Haha, Master is right. I, your father, am a drunkard who loves wine as much as my life. Haha, when Second Senior Martial Brother was brought back by Master, he was indeed a destitute butcher.
Eldest Senior Martial Brother … Eldest Senior Martial Brother is a bookworm who can't even fart after being beaten three times, but he is also a scholar.
Haha, Junior Martial Brother, what did Master say about you? "
Jiang Dongcheng embarrassedly smiled and said, "Master said I'm a one in ten thousand genius."
"Hahahaha …" Just as he finished speaking, Xu Yingqu and the others all burst into laughter. After a long time, Xu Yingqu stopped laughing and said, "Master is really biased. If we're not bookworms, then we're drunkards, but you're a genius. Haha, since Master said that, then you really are a one in ten thousand genius."
Jiang Dongcheng looked like he didn't know what to say. He awkwardly laughed for a while before suddenly withdrawing his smile and asking, "That's right, Second Senior Martial Brother, there is something I have to tell you. Before … Before, I didn't know your identity. Xu Wei was killed by me.
At that time, he inexplicably attacked me. I didn't know what to do, so … "
"Xu Wei?"
Xu Yingqu interrupted him and shook his head. "He isn't my son. He's just an orphan that I brought back from the outside. I gave him a name and raised him as my son, but that was just to hide my identity. There's no need to mention him anymore."
After saying that with a slightly regretful tone, Xu Yingqu immediately pushed this matter to the side and continued to ask Jiang Dongcheng, "You just said that you have five fellow disciples. From the looks of it, besides you, Master also accepted two other disciples?
Who are those two Junior Martial Brothers? "
"Them?"
Jiang Dongcheng let out a sigh of relief. When he heard Xu Yingqu's question, a smile appeared on his face again. He turned his gaze and looked at me.
"Haha, Master accepted two other disciples. One of them usually calls him grandparent and grandchild. She's not a Junior Martial Brother, but a Junior Martial Sister. Her name is Ye Pianpian, a famous beauty in our Metaphysics Society."
"Ye Pianpian?"
Xu Yingqu shook his head. "This girl … I know her. Let's not talk about her for now. Let's talk about the other Junior Martial Brother."
Xu Yingqu's reaction was a bit strange, but Jiang Dongcheng didn't care about it because he was too excited. The smile on his face became even wider. He pointed at me and said, "The other junior apprentice brother is right beside senior apprentice brother. Haha."
Xu Yingqu was stunned. Then, he followed his gaze and turned his head. After staring at me, he suddenly frowned.
"Him?"
Jiang Dongcheng nodded with a smile. "That's right. It's him. Master's last disciple."
Xu Yingqu wasn't as close to Jiang Dongcheng as before. He frowned and stared at me. After a moment of silence, he finally said, "Wang Lin … I know your name isn't Wang Lin. You used a technique to hide your appearance, so I could see through it. However, even though I know that there's something strange about you, I can't see any clues … Who are you?
Are you that Zhou Yi that was chased by Dragon Tiger Mountain? "
I stood at the same spot for a long time and gradually recovered from the shock.
However, looking at Xu Yingqu and the others in front of me, it was difficult for me to feel close to them like I did to Jiang Dongcheng.
After Xu Yingqu asked so many questions, I pondered for a moment before nodding and saying, "I'm Zhou Yi.
I also have the sect token you mentioned, but the old president … I haven't met him, nor have I taken him as my master. "
Xu Yingqu shook his head. "Since you have the sect's keepsake, you are naturally from the same sect … Zhou Yi … Although Master has not told me about you, since you have the sect's keepsake and have appeared here at this time, it must be Master's arrangement."
His words made me a bit confused. My appearance here was arranged by the old president?
I thought about it. There were many reasons that led me to the Corpse Yin Sect. How could it be arranged by the old president?
How was this possible?
Without waiting for me to understand, Xu Yingqu let out a breath, turned around, and said to everyone in a clear voice, "Master has painstakingly arranged for so many years. Everything was for today. Our martial arts and even our lives were given to us by Master. Today, we must complete Master's order!
Eldest Senior Brother and Junior Brothers, follow me in! "
After saying that, he turned around and casually waved his hand. A streak of sword light flashed and the few winners standing beside me were decapitated at the same time, dying on the spot.
Then, Xu Yingqu did not stop at all. He walked into the square passage first, and the others followed suit.
