Chapter 227 Inspection
Chapter 227 Inspection
Jun Ning looked at Shi Yubai steadily: "Why are you so nervous? Master didn't say anything about you."
Shi Yubai naturally showed an expression of grievance.
"Master, I feel like you are hinting at something in your words. I have been under your watch the whole time, and I have learned from my senior brothers before. Why do you have to do this? Is it because I came back from Puppet City?
If you have doubts, just tell me. I am willing to go to the Grand Elder for a checkup. Why do you have to say these sad things? You are always kind to Senior Brother Lu, why do you treat me differently?"
The other party said these words so bluntly that the remaining disciples who were working around had already pricked up their ears, and some were even peeking out. Jun Ning knew that there was no point in continuing this topic.
Jun Ning frowned: "Master didn't mean that. You think too much. Things are not peaceful recently. Master is just reminding you...Okay, go down."
Looking at Shi Yubai's back, Jun Ning's eyes flashed and he hummed softly through his nose.
"You are smart, you fooled me - sometimes the less you say, the fewer mistakes you make. The more you explain, the more suspicious you become. If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. It's getting worse. You are not very honest..."
Although she felt something was wrong, she had no reliable evidence. She couldn't do anything against her disciples based on her unfounded suspicion. She could only wait for the opportunity.
The sect does have a magic weapon to detect demonic energy, but the remaining disciples have checked and nothing has gone wrong, so it is not ruled out that the undercover agent who has infiltrated has a shielding magic weapon.
She couldn't ask Shi Yubai to do some tests based on her suspicions to dispel her worries. Not only would others think she was suspicious, but if the results were negative, it would easily create a rift between the master and the apprentice.
Jun Ning and disciple Shi Yubai were indeed not close to Lu Wensheng. Shi Yubai's words made her seem extremely biased, which made Jun Ning miss the time when the eldest disciple was around - she really couldn't figure out all these twists and turns, it would be more satisfying for her to go to the front line and kill a few demon cultivators.
Could it be that the eldest disciple didn't like the younger disciple's behavior and didn't bring him along? - Jun Ning thought it was quite possible.
Jiang Jinfeng was called over by Bai Wenche soon after.
"The timing of the other disciples' departure was unfortunate. All the sects have sent people to inspect the seal of the cultivation world. I'm afraid you are the only disciple of our sect. You have to be more careful and don't argue with other disciples. The most urgent task is to seal it..."
Bai Wenche has indeed been attentive during this period. Whenever he is free, he asks Jiang Jinfeng to come to his side to discipline him. He used to love traveling, but now he stays in the sect - it is obvious that he does not want anything to happen to Jiang Jinfeng, his only child, and he also wants to train his disciple well.
Jiang Jinfeng agreed to all of them, and Bai Wenche felt somewhat relieved to see this.
"With the consciousness that your master left for you, there should be no problem on this trip." It's a pity for Jiang Xiuyuan. The consciousness he gave to his eldest disciple was completely useless in the special Puppet City, otherwise he would not have died.
----------
The seal was filled with demonic energy and no one dared to approach. In the distance, disciples from other sects and their teams gathered around.
The leaders of Piaomiao Valley are still Xun Ruo and Xiao Mo, the leaders of Xuanyi Pavilion are Ye Yingzhou and Bi Nanfeng, Ning Rongrong follows behind her senior brothers, the one from Lingxiao Sect is Yin Junhuai, and the ones from Medical Valley are Cheng Yang and Gu Jinzhi.
Everyone was gathered together with their own sects. When they saw people coming from the Wenxian Sect, they all looked over. When they saw that only Jiang Jinfeng was leading the group, they stopped looking at him.
Gu Jinzhi was greatly disappointed: "Why isn't it Yangming or Xuandu Zhenjun?"
Cheng Yang said weakly: "I heard that he went to the mortal world to gain experience."
Gu Jinzhi looked at Ning Rongrong in Xuanyi Pavilion next door: "Why didn't Yangming and the others come?!" The fun was suddenly reduced by half!
Cheng Yang: “…” Very good, it seems that I didn’t notice him again.
It was Ye Yingzhou who answered: "They all went to the mortal world."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, why didn't Jiang Jinfeng go? Was he isolated by them? Oh, he seems to be in seclusion, right?"
The disciples of Medical Valley wanted to cover the mouth of their young master - can't you speak in a lower voice? He is a Golden Core after all. If he starts to attack, you will get beaten with your mediocre skills.
Jiang Jinfeng pretended not to hear and was too lazy to pay attention, but the others were interested in Gu Jinzhi's mention of Lu Wensheng and the others. Jiang Jinfeng suddenly felt that "Lu Wensheng" was all around his ears, and he felt very irritated - Lu Wensheng was really haunting him! He could still annoy him even when he was not around.
When everyone was present, they divided themselves into teams and prepared to start the patrol.
Jiang Jinfeng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his ears were finally quiet. However, Gu Jinzhi slowly walked around him, apparently joining him.
Jiang Jinfeng: "......"
Because the purpose of this visit was clear, Jiang Jinfeng was very patient and did not participate in other people's topics from beginning to end, but Gu Jinzhi was a chatterbox.
Seeing that Jiang Jinfeng always loved to jump out, fearing that others would slap him in the face, he now cosplayed as an iceberg, with an attitude of keeping strangers away, and put his hand familiarly on the shoulder of the disciple from the Wenxian Sect next to him.
"What's wrong with him? After experiencing the fickleness of human nature, his temperament has changed drastically. He wants to take revenge on everyone. He wants us to V him the spirit stone and listen to his revenge plan? We don't think highly of him, but he doesn't live up to his expectations?"
The disciple being questioned was confused: "???" You've watched too many advertisements of Senior Sister Yan, and your brain has been damaged, right? Your little head is really overwhelmed.
Seeing the other party looking at him strangely, Gu Jinzhi smacked his lips and felt nostalgic: Oh, I just didn’t see the disciples of the Discipline Hall. Otherwise, if it was the group of disciples under Lu Wensheng, the other party would definitely be able to respond to what he said - it’s just not interesting if you are not chatting on the same channel.
Jiang Jinfeng tried hard to ignore the chirping around him, as if there were hundreds of ducks, and focused on his surroundings. His diligent and conscientious appearance made Gu Jinzhi quiet down - has he changed?
There is also demonic energy around the seal of the cultivation world, so everyone is very careful when patrolling so as not to be contaminated.
The inspection was a grand affair, but it was more or less a formality - they had many cultivators guarding the seal, and if any demon cultivators dared to come, they would have to consider whether they could escape unscathed.
The wind blew silently, ruffling the monks' clothes. Suddenly, a strange aura spread without warning, making people feel creepy.
A group of demon cultivators appeared like ghosts, stirring up an eerie gale and sweeping up a sky full of dust. The originally quiet atmosphere instantly became tense, and laughter could be heard faintly in the wind.
"Be careful!" Jiang Jinfeng, the leader, drew his sword and shouted loudly, his voice full of alertness, but there was a flash of understanding in his eyes.
At this moment, several dark shadows shot out from the darkness like ghosts, and several demon cultivators appeared. They exuded a thick black aura and their eyes were filled with gloom and malice.
(These chapters are about the plot where the seal is about to fall off. The outline can be seen in Chapter 221. Pang Ling's prophecy about Jiang is related to it.)
(Because tomorrow is the 15th day of July, the author has something to say and some scientific knowledge. Those who are interested can take a look)
