"Someone was before us, and definitely not a long time ago, also walked through this forest." He said with certainty, at the same time a trace of unconcealable worry surfaced on his face.
Zeng ShuShu pondered, "Could it be Li senior brother's fellow sect members …"
Li Xun shook his head, "Impossible, FenXiang Valley only has our team venturing deep into the ten thousand great mountains, the valley's young generation elites, are mostly here, there won't be anyone else coming in."
Zeng ShuShu frowned, said, "That's strange, according to what Yun valley master said that day, this news should not have been leaked! Don't tell me the other sects also got the news and entered the ten thousand great mountains? "
Li Xun hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, said, "I think it shouldn't be, firstly this matter is still kept secret, only our two sects know about it," he coughed lightly, lowered his voice, said, "The Beast Deity is the main culprit of the catastrophe, if others hit us when we are down, and took advantage of us, our two sects' bloody battle at Qing Yun Hill, wouldn't it be …"
Zeng ShuShu stretched out his hand, his face full of smiles, patted Li Xun's shoulder, laughed and said, "Li senior brother's words are exactly what I thought, great minds really think alike! He he, he he he … "
Both of them looked at each other and laughed, suddenly a cold snort was heard from the side, it was from Lu XueQi, both of them were startled and turned to look.
Zeng ShuShu quietly asked, "Lu senior sister, what's wrong, did we say something wrong?"
Lu XueQi coldly glanced at him, turned her head away, sneered and said, "Repulsive face!"
Zeng ShuShu was stunned, for a moment he did not understand the meaning of Lu XueQi's words, did not know if she was scolding him or Li Xun, or simply scolding both. He turned to look at Li Xun, both of them looked at each other, for a moment felt awkward, not knowing what to say.
After a moment, Zeng ShuShu's skin was thicker, laughed, pretended not to have heard anything, said to Li Xun, "Li senior brother, since the news was not leaked, and it was not your FenXiang Valley disciples, then there are such traces here, I'm afraid there is something strange about it!"
LiXun frowned, clearly also thinking hard, was about to speak, suddenly Anan who had just turned around, coldly said again, "Beast Deity!"
Zeng ShuShu and Li Xun's bodies shook, their faces revealing a stunned expression.
After a while, Zeng Shushu slowly nodded his head. Although he was a little hesitant, he still said, "This … Although what Senior Sister Lu said is a little … whimsical, but thinking about it carefully, it really is very possible!"
LiXun's expression was not the same as Issa's. He wanted to say something but stopped. After hesitating for a while, he shook his head and said, "Forget it. Let's continue and see. It's useless to make wild guesses here."
As he spoke, he turned to the two of them and said, "You two should also rest for a while. I'm going back to check on my junior brothers."
Zeng Shushu nodded and said, "Senior Brother Li, please go ahead!"
Li Xun reminded him to be careful, then turned around and walked back.
After Li Xun was far away, Zeng Shushu then turned his head, facing Anan's back figure, suddenly smiled and said, "Lu senior sister, were you scolding me just now?"
Anan snorted coldly, did not admit nor deny. Looking at it, it was more of a silent admission.
Zeng Shushu laughed bitterly, after a moment, slowly walked to Anan's side, but lowered his voice and said, "Lu senior sister, I have something to ask you."
Anan glanced at him, was slightly taken aback. Zeng Shushu's expression right now was extremely solemn and serious, very different from usual. She immediately said, "What?"
Zeng Shushu took a deep breath, looked around and then quietly said, "Lu senior sister, tell me honestly, our sect's Zhu Xian ancient sword, is it really destroyed?"
Anan's face turned pale, a glint flashed in her eyes, staring at Zeng Shushu, even the TianYa celestial sword in her hand, that pale blue light like autumn water, seemed to be emitting an invisible buzzing sound, instantly stretched out and then slowly retracted.
Zeng Shushu's countenance changed slightly, felt that the girl in front of him a moment ago was like ice, the next moment seemed to have instantly turned into a sharp and terrifying needle. He couldn't help but took a step back, quietly laughed bitterly and said, "Lu senior sister, you don't have to be like this."
Anan coldly stared at him, said, "You asked this, what is the meaning of it?"
Zeng Shushu smiled and said, "No matter what I am also a Qing Yun disciple, how can I not be concerned about this matter? WenMin senior sister returned at the last minute, most likely it is to report this matter to the various teachers right? "
Anan did not speak, only coldly looked at him.
Zeng Shushu nodded his head, said, "Alright alright, Lu senior sister, you see, I do not have any ill intentions, just that there are some matters here that are very suspicious, along the way there were not many opportunities, now is the right time to tell you about it."
Anan glanced at him, said, "What is it?"
Zeng Shushu coughed once, quietly said, "What kind of person do you think FenXiang Valley valley master Yun YiLan is?"
Anan frowned, said, "What do you mean?"
Zeng Shushu smiled and said, "Let me put it this way, do you think Yun valley master is a simple-minded person? Or perhaps he is someone who hates evil like an enemy, regards the world's Good Faction as his own responsibility, towards fellow Good Faction Qing Yun disciples who are also Good Faction disciples? "
Anan snorted, did not speak but the disdain on her face was obvious, obviously she completely denied Zeng Shushu's questions.
Zeng ShuShu was not angry, it seemed that he already knew that Lu XueQi would have such a reaction. He continued, "Since we all know that Valley Master Yun is not a warm-hearted or simple-minded person, then isn't it strange for him to rashly ask the three of us that Zhu Xian was destroyed that day in the Mountain River Hall?"
Anan inhaled a deep breath, looked at Zeng Shushu without a word.
Zeng Shushu was a little embarrassed, said, "Alright! I know it is indeed inappropriate to talk about a highly respected elder behind his back, but you see, thinking about these things, it is really strange … "
"There is nothing inappropriate." Anan's cold voice cut him off, as if she could not be bothered with Zeng Shushu's slightly agape mouth, coldly said, "Just say it, what is there to worry about, from Qing Yun Hill till now, I don't think he is a good person!"
"Uh …" Zeng Shushu was both surprised and amused, for a moment he was speechless. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect, Anan who had always followed the rules would be even more out of line than him, directly speaking out about a highly respected elder. But thinking back, this unparalleled beauty, with that highly respected elder and his disciples, seemed to have quite a number of conflicts!
Looking at Anan's expression, Zeng Shushu for some reason felt a chill at the back of his neck, instinctively thought, did he accidentally poke a hornet's nest? He coughed and hurriedly changed the topic, saying, "This, uh, hmm, let's not care about his character for now. What I'm saying is, regarding this matter, Valley Master Yun at least has a few unusual aspects …"
"How did he know about the destruction of Zhu Xian ancient sword, this is one." Anan interrupted, her expression did not change but her eyes revealed a glimmer of light, like a dazzling crystal, "Secondly, after he knew, why did he tell us. He clearly knew that once this news came out from his mouth, we would definitely have to report it to Qing Yun sect teachers, then between FenXiang Valley and Qing Yun sect, wouldn't there be an immediate change? "
Zeng Shushu nodded his head repeatedly, said, "I knew that with Lu senior sister's intelligence, there is no way that you would not be able to discover the important implications." Pausing for a while, he continued, "Thinking about it carefully, there are only two scenarios for Yun valley master, one, Qing Yun sect has a spy who informs him, this news that even a Qing Yun disciple like me was kept from us, he actually knew about it, it can be seen that this spy's status is not to be underestimated. But with what he said, wouldn't it instead expose that spy's identity? "
Anan snorted and said, "Secondly, what is his motive for telling us all these? To remind Qing Yun sect that he already knows this secret, or to warn the teachers, FenXiang Valley is no longer afraid of Qing Yun sect? "
Zeng Shushu looked deeply at Anan, sighed and said, "What I am thinking, so you have already thought of it, to think that I still wanted to remind you. But thinking about it, that day you let WenMin senior sister return to Qing Yun temporarily, it was to report this matter to the elders right! "
Anan was silent, nodded her head.
The corner of Zeng Shushu's mouth twitched, suddenly gave a long sigh, his voice was filled with sorrow.
Anan was slightly taken aback, said, "What's wrong with you?"
Zeng Shushu gave a bitter laugh, said, "I, I am sighing because of our sect's Zhu Xian ancient sword, to be honest, these few days although I have thought of this but in my heart, I am still extremely unwilling to believe it is true, I would rather have guessed wrong."
Anan did not speak, only silently turned her head and looked ahead. Deep in the dense forest, it was dim and dark, there was not a single ray of light ahead.
Zeng Shushu heaved a long sigh, shook his head and said, "Forget it, anyway there is no other way even if I think about it, I can only take one step at a time. I would like to see, what kind of medicine is that Yun valley master actually selling in his gourd? "
Anan did not reply, her gaze inadvertently turned to that blurry mark that she had just discovered.
Zeng Shushu said in a low voice, "Actually the Beast Deity that you mentioned, although it is possible but I still feel that it should not be him."
Anan said, "Then who do you think it is?"
Zeng Shushu pondered for a moment, quietly said, "If what that Li Xun said is true, and it really is not the other FenXiang Valley disciples, I am afraid that these marks, most likely were left behind by the remnants of the Evil Sect."
Anan's body shook, she turned her head, for the first time on her usually cold and beautiful face, she said, "Why do you say so?"
Zeng Shushu pointed to that mark, said, "You see, although this mark is blurry but it is obviously left behind by humans who passed by here. Since FenXiang Valley had never been here before, then no other sect in the world of Good Faction is more familiar with the Ten Thousand Great Mountains than them, it is also hard to imagine that they would be able to trace to this place. But the Evil Sect is different, after the Good and Evil war, the Evil Sect was chased out of the Central Plains by the Good Faction, like this kind of barren hills and unruly rivers, I am afraid they would have been here before. So to say it is them, I feel it is highly possible. "
"What do you think! Lu senior sister? "Zeng Shushu turned his head and asked, but looking at Anan's expression, he could not help but was taken aback.
That beautiful girl, stared blankly at that footprint mark, her face looked slightly pale, but unexpectedly there was a faint blush, faintly seeping out from the depths of her skin. In this desolate and cold ancient forest, she stood quietly, as if she had fallen into a strange dream, and could no longer hear the words of the people around her.
