After listening to the explanation of the elder judges, Luo Qing felt it was not appropriate to attack Lin Qingqing in front of so many people, so she glared at Lin Qingqing fiercely before leaving. She waved her hand and asked her men to take Jiang Cheng, who was in a coma, away, and then she gradually disappeared from the sight of Lin Qingqing and the others.

“Junior Sister Lin, we all thought you died in the Black Demon Ridge. We didn’t expect you to come back.” The disciple of the Earth Spirit Sect said in surprise.

Lin Qingqing nodded at them, then shook her head slightly, indicating that this was not a good place to talk.

"Thank you for your concern. I will tell all the senior brothers and sisters about this when I get back." Lin Qingqing replied politely.

Yingxiang, who was hiding in the crowd, saw this scene and was a little dazed. She was afraid that Lin Qingqing would discover her whereabouts, so she took a quick glance and left.

"Congratulations, Junior Sister Lin, for your victory!" Liu Fang was very happy for her victory. Seeing that Senior Sister Qiao Wei had recovered, she leaned over to support her, "Senior Sister, are you okay? Fortunately, you helped me just now, otherwise..."

"Nothing, it's only natural for fellow disciples to help each other." Qiao Wei declined Liu Fang's help, her eyes wandering, and finally her gaze fell on Lin Qingqing, "Junior Sister Lin, if you have time, let's find a place to chat for a while?"

"Okay." Lin Qingqing did not refuse. At this moment, she also wanted to know what had happened in the sect in the past two years.

The two of them came to a remote pavilion one after the other. For a while, no one took the initiative to speak. After a long while, Qiao Wei slowly spoke.

"Have you seen Qin Yu at the foot of the Black Demon Ridge cliff?"

Lin Qingqing was very confused by the question Qiao Wei asked, but she still answered her: "No."

Qiao Wei got the expected answer and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Is that really the case?"

Lin Qingqing calmed down and didn't want to continue beating around the bush with Qiao Wei, so she said, "Senior Sister Qiao, if you have something to say, just say it directly."

Qiao Wei pursed her lips and spoke softly, "I'm sure you have some doubts in your heart. Why are the disciples of the Earth Spirit Sect so worried when the three-yearly Immortal Sect Competition finally arrives? The atmosphere is very different from before. Not only that, the Taoist Guizhen, who used to be the face of the sect, did not attend the Immortal Sect Competition this time, and his chief disciple Mo Qinyu did not show up either. All these signs indicate that something is wrong with the Earth Spirit Sect."

"Sister, what you said is what I think in my heart. Please help me solve my doubts."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Wei's expression tensed. With an idea in her mind, she quickly cast a spell to attack Lin Qingqing.

Although Lin Qingqing was caught off guard, she reacted quickly, bent back slightly, and dodged it easily.

She said angrily, "If you don't want to say it, then just don't say it. Why did you suddenly do it?"

"That's all because of you!" Qiao Wei suddenly shouted.

Lin Qingqing turned around and looked at her confusedly: "What do you mean?"

"Qin Yu, he died for you!"

"What did you say?" Lin Qingqing opened her mouth wide and looked at Qiao Wei blankly.

"Junior Brother Qinyu heard that you fell off the cliff, so he rushed to the place where you fell to look for you. He searched for several days without success, and was so sad and angry that he followed you."

Qiao Wei's face was full of pain. She knew how it felt to lose a loved one, but she just couldn't forgive Qin Yu for leaving without saying goodbye.

"Impossible!" Lin Qingqing clenched her hands tightly, the hair on her body almost stood up, like a pissed off cat.

"How is it impossible?" Qiao Wei asked back.

"Did you see everything you said with your own eyes?"

Qiao Wei hesitated a little and said, "Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, the disciples who went with me all saw it."

"Then is Senior Sister Yingxiang among the disciples going with us?"

Qiao Wei nodded and said affirmatively, "Yes."

Lin Qingqing understood that all this seemed to be related to Li Yingxiang.

"Sister, do you think that Brother Qinyu is the kind of person who only cares about his love affairs and ignores the kindness of the sect and the master in raising him?"

Qiao Wei thought for a moment and said, "Not really, but when he jumped off the cliff, many people saw it."

Lin Qingqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Sometimes seeing is not believing. This matter is far from being as simple as it seems."

Qiao Wei's eyes suddenly lit up and she asked, "Are you saying Qin Yu is still alive?"

"I don't know, but I know that if it was Senior Brother Qinyu, he would never abandon his fellow disciples for love. Senior Sister, you know that Senior Brother Qinyu is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty, and the more desperate the situation, the less he will give up easily. He hasn't seen my body, so he won't easily conclude that I'm dead. At the same time, I believe he's still alive. At least I haven't seen him at the bottom of the cliff, whether he's alive or dead."

"Lin Qingqing, even though I hate you, there is some truth in what you said. Looking back, Qin Yu was indeed such a person. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he might still be alive. But why did he fall off the cliff, and how did you get out alive from under the cliff? That is a death zone. From ancient times to the present, no cultivator has ever been able to get out alive."

"It's a long story. As for why I'm still alive, it's all due to luck. I happened to fall off a cliff and landed halfway. I was saved by a mysterious senior, so I'm still alive."

Qiao Wei glanced at Lin Qingqing unexpectedly: "I didn't expect you to be so lucky."

"Well, it's just that I didn't fall off the cliff by accident, but someone deliberately did it..."

Hearing this, Qiao Wei frowned. Lin Qingqing's words made her fall into deep thought. She decided to ask the reason. Lin Qingqing omitted some details and told Qiao Wei how Li Yingxiang seduced her.

……

"The best plan for now is to wait and see what happens and not alert the enemy," Lin Qingqing added.

Qiao Wei originally wanted to report the matter, but Lin Qingqing's words made her waver a little.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to Master."

"It's okay, Senior Sister, just do it. I'll take responsibility if there are any problems. I'm at the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage now, after all. The Sect Master won't make things difficult for me."

"I'll think about what you said when I get back," Qiao Wei stood up, walked to Lin Qingqing's side, turned her head and said to her, "Also, don't think that I will obey you just because you convince me. Not every Tom, Dick or Harry can order me around."

"This is the Senior Sister Qiao Wei that I know!" Lin Qingqing whispered.

"What are you mumbling about?" Qiao Wei raised her voice.

"No, it's nothing."

Lin Qingqing said with a smile as she respectfully sent Qiao Wei away. She heaved a long sigh of relief. She didn't expect that such a thing would happen during the days she left the sect.

"Senior Brother Qinyu, you will be safe." The girl prayed secretly.

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, Qiao Wei turned around and said something incomprehensible.

"Well, your senior sister is not as easy to talk to as me," seeing Lin Qingqing's strange look, Qiao Wei hurriedly explained, "Don't look at me like that, I'm not reminding you so kindly, I just said it casually, it's up to you whether you listen or not."

Before Lin Qingqing could reply, Qiao Wei walked away in big strides. It was obvious that she was in a hurry and she didn't even notice that her handkerchief had fallen. Lin Qingqing walked forward and bent down to pick it up.

"Hey, this is..."
