Mortal Bones

"Taiping, did you encounter any danger along the way?"

"If you don't come back, I will send someone to look for you."

When Xu Taiping entered the tent, Dugu Qingxiao and Huang Que immediately greeted him, both of them with concern.

"Everything went smoothly along the way."

Xu Taiping nodded to the two of them, then looked at the disciple of Wangyou Valley who pretended to be Xu Taichong, and asked calmly:

"Second Senior Brother, Brother Huang Que, who is this?"

He did not rush to point out the identity of Wangyou Valley Lu Qiu.

"Are you Xu Taiping?"

Without waiting for Huang Que and Dugu Qingxiao to answer, the Wangyou Valley disciple Lu Qiu who pretended to be Xu Taichong suddenly looked at Xu Taiping in surprise.

"I didn't expect to see our Golden Scale Leader here."

After a moment of stunned silence, the Wangyou Valley disciple smiled at Xu Taiping jokingly.

Although the disciples of the hidden sects in the Five Directions World cannot participate in the Golden Scale Meeting, their attention to the Golden Scale Meeting is no less than that of ordinary sects.

Because in their opinion, only disciples who can be on the Golden Scale Ranking are worthy of being their future opponents.

So many young disciples of the hidden sects know Xu Taiping.

"Taiping, this person pretended to be a surviving citizen of Daliang and came to assassinate the little princess. We suspect that he is one of the three disciples who set fire to Wangyou Valley."

Huang Que frowned and looked coldly at Wangyou Valley Lu Qiu.

"Suspicion?" Lu Qiu smiled cunningly, "Brother Qingxiao, suspicion without evidence is called slander."

As he said that, he raised his hand and gently tapped the talisman floating in front of him.

With a "bang", the talisman suddenly exploded and turned into a ball of golden light.

"Disciple Lu Qiu, I went down the mountain because of the task in the valley. I don't want to be framed by the disciples of Jiufu and Qingxuan Sect and can't get away. Please help me, elders."

Lu Qiu asked Wangyou Valley for help openly, without fear of exposing his true identity.

"Everyone, I have sent a message to Wangyou Valley. I believe that the Lord of the Nine Prefectures and the head of your Qingxuan Sect will soon receive a message from Wangyou Valley."

"Especially your Qingxuan Sect, if you don't want to tear your face, and offend the hidden sect Wangyou Valley after offending Wumianlou, I advise you to get out of the way."

Seeing that the three people didn't say a word, Lu Qiu smiled again.

"Lu Qiu, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you move out of Wangyou Valley."

Huang Que glared at Lu Qiu fiercely.

After hearing Lu Qiu admit that he was a disciple of Wangyou Valley, Huang Que was 100% sure that this person must be one of the three people who set fire to Wangyou Valley.

For a while, he was furious.

But anger is anger, if there is no evidence to prove that Lu Qiu had done evil in Daliang State, he really can't do anything to him.

If he is punished privately, it will not only fail to deter other cultivators in the Five Directions who intend to come to Zhenwu Heaven to do evil, but also offend Wangyou Valley, which is a hidden sect.

This would not be a good outcome for either Jiufu or Qingxuan.

"Brother Huangque, can Jiufu now communicate with the outside world in the ruins of Daliang?"

Xu Taiping, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.

He asked this question because he saw that Lu Qiu from Wangyou Valley was communicating with Wangyou Valley.

"It's already possible." Huangque nodded.

Hundreds of walkers from Jiufu and dozens of array masters from major sects spent half a month to set up a communication array on this ruin with spirit stones and gold coins, and finally completed it yesterday.

"But you can only communicate once a day, and if you want more, you have to ask the house owner."

Because of the Zhenwu barrier, this communication array must consume a lot of gold coins, and even Huangque only has the right to communicate once a day.

"Once is enough."

Xu Taiping nodded.

In fact, Huangque mentioned this communication array to him when he was preparing to come to Daliang Country, and just now he just confirmed it again.

"Taiping, what are you going to do?"

Dugu Qingxiao saw that Xu Taiping seemed to be planning something, and immediately asked curiously.

"Since the arsonist has been found, we must give him the punishment he deserves and announce it to the world."

Xu Taiping put his hand on the hilt of the knife, looked at Lu Qiu with a serious expression, and a vague murderous aura emanated from him.

"Taiping, I understand your feelings, but it is not good for you, Qingxuan, or even Jiufu to take private actions against Lu Qiu without solid evidence."

Although Huang Que was also full of anger towards Lu Qiu at this moment, after sensing Xu Taiping's murderous intent, he still spoke out to dissuade him.

Dugu Qingxiao on the side remained silent.

Unlike Huang Que, he knew Xu Taiping better and knew that he would not do such a reckless thing, so he decided to wait and see.

"Xu Taiping, you are so arrogant."

Lu Qiu crossed his arms across his chest, looking fearless, and smiled coldly at Xu Taiping.

"If you didn't have so many people today, you, a useless person with shattered spirit bones and a cultivation base that could never break through the realm of transformation, would never be able to enter my body..."

"Pa!"

As soon as Lu Qiu said the word "body", Xu Taiping appeared in front of him as if he had teleported, and slapped him hard on the face.

"You!"

"Swish!..."

Lü Qiu was about to fight back, but just as he raised his hand to make a seal, Xu Taiping's water-breaking knife cut through his body-protecting qi and placed it on his neck.

With Xu Taiping's current martial arts skills, he can be said to be invincible in this Zhenwu barrier as long as he does not encounter old monsters like Song Tianshu and others.

"Xu Taiping, I have sent a message to Wangyou Valley. If I die in Zhenwu Heaven today, I will die in the hands of Xu Taiping of your Qingxuan Sect."

"Then you Xu Taiping, Qingxuan Sect, and Jiufu will wait to bear the wrath of Wangyou Valley!"

Lv Qiu threatened Xu Taiping in anger.

"Private punishment?"

Xu Taiping sneered, then stretched out his hand and tore Xu Taichong's face off from Lu Qiu's face with a "snap".

"Uh..."

Lv Qiu felt pain and groaned. A pair of eyes full of resentment stared at Xu Taiping fiercely, as if he was about to spit fire at any time.

"To kill a villain like you, of course we have to kill him openly and in front of all the disciples of Wangyou Valley."

Xu Taiping seemed not to have noticed Lu Qiu's gaze. He spoke expressionlessly while reaching out to take out a piece of Moon Shadow Stone and handing it to the second senior brother beside him:

"Second senior brother, please keep this Moon Shadow for me first. I'll need it later."

"Okay." Dugu Qingxiao reached out to take the Moon Shadow Stone without asking anything.

While Huang Que was confused, Xu Taiping suddenly turned to him and said:

"Brother Huang Que, start the communication array and help me shout to the Five Directions Heaven and Earth. I want to execute this arsonist."

Hearing this, Huang Que was stunned at first, and then shook his head vigorously and said:

"Taiping, you can't make such a joke. You and I can't fool the cultivators of the Five Directions Heaven and Earth!"

"Don't worry." Xu Taiping smiled at Huang Que, then glanced at the Moon Shadow Stone in Dugu Qingxiao's hand and said:

"The evidence of Lu Qiu's arson is in the hands of the second senior brother."

Hearing this, Huang Que and Lu Qiu looked at the Moon Shadow Stone in Dugu Qingxiao's hand.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Lu Qiu was extremely convinced that he and his two senior brothers had acted very cleanly this time, and there was no trace left except for the idiot little princess.
