Mortal blood!

Lin Fan was shocked, and his figure flashed directly to the outside of the stone house.

At this moment, the foundation-building cultivators from the seven major sects of the Chu State had already gathered here.

Elder Hu, who was guarding the Tianquan Spiritual Medicine Mountain, stood in the air with his hands behind his back with a cold expression. The piercing murderous intent and the terrifying pressure of the Jindan stage have been completely released.

Seeing Lin Fan coming out of the stone house, Elder Hu waved his hand expressionlessly.

"Catch him!"

Lin Fan was shocked.

But at this time, he would not surrender.

With a thought, the spiritual power in his body had quietly circulated, and several medium-grade fireball talismans were tightly held in his hands.

"Elder Hu, I have been practicing in seclusion these days and never go out. What do you mean?"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became depressed.

The two foundation-building cultivators originally wanted to capture Lin Fan, but seeing that Lin Fan looked alert and seemed to be planning to take action, they also hesitated.

Elder Hu sneered repeatedly.

"Boy, why are you pretending? Not long ago, someone broke into the secret room where the spirit crystal beads were stored and stole more than 5,000 spirit crystal beads. I asked the Soul Gathering Rat to find the trace of the thief. The Soul Gathering Rat didn't go anywhere and came straight to you. What else do you have to explain?"

Although Elder Hu is a Jindan-stage elder of the Qixuan Sect, his current duty is to guard the Tianquan Spirit Medicine Mountain.

Now that the spirit crystal beads have been stolen, he is naturally responsible.

Even if Lin Fan is a fellow sect member, Elder Hu is not going to let him off.

"This..."

Lin Fan had a headache.

During this period of time, he has been practicing in the stone house and has never left. Stealing spirit crystal beads is naturally impossible.

Now, Elder Hu's Soul Gathering Rat came straight to him, which is clearly someone framing him.

If this matter is not resolved quickly, Lin Fan may really become a scapegoat.

"Frame-up, intentional, this person is really vicious and scheming."

Lin Fan cursed inwardly.

On the surface, he remained calm, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to deal with it quickly.

"The Soul Gathering Sky Rat is very sensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and various smells. There must be something about me that attracts it. Could someone have tampered with me?"

Thinking of this, Lin Fan was shocked.

These days, only when he first came, he participated in a private trade fair with Chen Yu, Liu Wuyang and others.

The rest of the time, Lin Fan has been meditating and practicing in the stone house.

Even if others want to tamper with him, they have no chance.

There is only one explanation at the moment.

"Could someone have started to plot against me during the private trade fair?" Lin Fan smiled bitterly.

At this time, Lin Fan had no direct evidence, and it was not easy to identify anyone out of thin air.

After thinking for a while, Lin Fan frowned slightly.

"Elder Hu, are you sure I stole the spirit crystal bead?"

Elder Hu sneered, raised his head coldly, and looked extremely impatient.

"You are only in the middle stage of foundation building, and you dare to be so presumptuous in front of me? If it weren't for Senior Brother Xuan Lingzi, I would have slapped you to death long ago. Hand over the spirit crystal bead!" Elder Hu sneered.

Lin Fan was under great pressure.

Even though he was a direct disciple of the Piaomiao Peak of the Qixuan Sect, his realm was too low after all.

Facing Elder Hu, who was in the early stage of Jindan, he had no power to fight back.

It seemed that at this moment, Lin Fan could only be a scapegoat.

But Lin Fan was not in a hurry.

While talking to Elder Hu just now, his mind quietly spread out, closely observing the every move of everyone present.

Just when Elder Hu wanted him to hand over the spirit crystal bead, Chen Yu seemed calm, but his eyelids blinked slightly. Deep in his eyes, there was a flash of sneer.

As for Liu Wuyang, there was always a faint melancholy between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be worried about something.

The changes in their expressions were not noticed by other foundation-building cultivators, nor by Elder Hu.

Only Lin Fan saw it all clearly.

"This matter is probably related to Chen Yu and Liu Wuyang."

Lin Fan felt an indescribable fear in his heart.

"I tricked Chen Yu at the private transaction. It seems that I have the upper hand, but I am afraid that Chen Yu and Liu Wuyang are just playing a trick and preparing to frame me." Lin Fan said secretly.

At this moment, Lin Fan had a new understanding of the intrigues in the world of cultivators.

After carefully sorting out the general process of the matter, Lin Fan calmed down a lot.

Without waiting for Elder Hu to urge him, Lin Fan flipped his palm and took out a storage ring directly.

At this moment, a spirit-gathering sky rat the size of a kitten and shaped like a mouse jumped out of Elder Hu's sleeve.

It screamed excitedly and rushed towards Lin Fan.

Elder Hu was delighted at first, then sneered, "It's you who stole the crystal beads!"

Lin Fan said nothing, waiting for the storage ring in his hand to be taken away by the Soul Gathering Rat, then he smiled faintly.

"Elder Hu, don't wrongly accuse me, take a look at the things in the storage ring first." Lin Fan said.

Just now, the storage ring he gave to Elder Hu was indeed filled with crystal beads.

But they were all defective products bought from Liu Wuyang.

These things cannot be used by cultivators at all. Usually, they are taken out by cultivators guarding the Heavenly Spirit Spring and used as props for fraud.

Even if Elder Hu saw these crystal beads, he could not punish Lin Fan.

"Defective products?"

After seeing the crystal beads in the storage ring, Elder Hu was surprised.

But he still didn't believe that his Soul Gathering Rat would be deceived by these defective products.

In front of everyone, Elder Hu asked the Soul Gathering Rat to confirm several times.

When he saw that the Soul Gathering Rat went to the storage ring containing the defective spirit crystal beads every time, Elder Hu himself was dumbfounded.

"Impossible. My Soul Gathering Rat is a late-stage foundation-building demon beast. It is very sensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the identification of smells. It will never make mistakes."

The atmosphere at the scene became weird again.

Everyone looked at Elder Hu in confusion.

This put Elder Hu under great pressure.

Although he was in the early stage of Jindan, these immortal cultivators in the foundation-building period were not easy to deal with. Moreover, each of them had a huge background.

If this matter was not handled well, he would get himself into big trouble if he was not careful.

For a while, Elder Hu was in a dilemma.

At this moment, Chen Yu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Elder Hu, I swear by my inner demon that Junior Brother Lin definitely did not steal the Spirit Crystal Pearl. Perhaps, it was really your spirit beast that made a mistake."

"What are you talking about? How could my Spirit Gathering Rat make a mistake?"

Elder Hu's face sank, and his tone became extremely cold.

Chen Yu was unwilling to give up and continued to defend Lin Fan.

"Elder Hu, I firmly believe that Junior Brother Lin Fan did not steal the Spirit Crystal Pearl. If you don't believe it, you can search him yourself to prove Junior Brother Lin's innocence."

Chen Yu seemed to be eager to clear Lin Fan.

But Lin Fan's face turned very ugly.

Every cultivator has his own secrets.

Especially Lin Fan, who was carrying a mysterious copper bottle and taking the Holy Blood Pill. If anyone found out, he would definitely die with his mid-stage foundation building realm.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan's pressure increased again.

Without waiting for him to open his mouth to defend himself, Elder Hu nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I agree to your request. Search Lin Fan in person to prove his innocence!"
