Junior sister took first place again

As the Blazing Sun Spirit Arrow shattered, Wen Xingzhou felt the light in front of his eyes suddenly dim, and then the sky and the earth spun. An invisible force wrapped him up, passed through the vortex of time and space, and teleported him back to reality.

He opened his eyes and still found himself in a chaotic space, surrounded by twisted space cracks. These cracks were like hideous wounds, constantly emitting strange light.

He was well aware of the danger of these cracks. They were caused by the battle between the demons from the outside world and the Peerless Immortal. If one was not careful, one would be sucked into them and fall into an irretrievable situation.

Wen Xingzhou carefully avoided these cracks. Although he was shocked by the destruction of the Blazing Sun Spirit Arrow, he had more things to deal with at the moment.

The cause of Bi Heng's death, the mystery that had always troubled him, once again surfaced in his mind.

In the chaotic battlefield, he must remain calm, look for clues, and uncover the truth about Bi Heng's death.

At this moment, Wen Xingzhou sensed a familiar breath. He looked up and saw Xue You.

Xue You is a demon clan, and theoretically shouldn't be here, even though the Immortal Sect and the demon clan are now allies.

Wen Xingzhou's heart moved, and he immediately flew towards Xue You.

"Xueyou!" Wen Xingzhou called out softly, trying to attract its attention.

Xue You heard the voice and quickly turned around. After seeing Wen Xingzhou, she nodded slightly and greeted him.

"Why are you here?" Wen Xingzhou asked bluntly.

Although the Unparalleled Immortal Venerable has no time to watch the secret realm now, it has carefully restrained its breath, but it is not impossible to be discovered.

Judging from Xue You's style of doing things, he would not come in for no reason, because this would be considered a provocation to the Immortal Sect.

Xue You's voice was filled with a subtle solemnity. "This is not the place to talk. Let's talk while we walk."

As he spoke, he continued walking forward. Wen Xingzhou nodded. He also understood that Xue You was a demon and had to be extra careful in this situation.

The two of them quickly walked towards a relatively hidden corner, avoiding the dangerous space cracks and the sky eyes everywhere.

After finding a relatively safe place, Xue You immediately said, "I met Ah Sheng outside the secret realm..."

Before he finished speaking, he and Wen Xingzhou noticed Ni Chaomu and others coming towards them.

"That's not Ah Sheng, don't worry."

Wen Xingzhou looked at it, gave Xue You a reassuring look, and signaled it to move away first.

After hearing Wen Xingzhou's words, Xue You felt relieved, but the doubts in her heart still remained. After all, that thing was exactly the same as Ah Sheng in appearance and aura.

But today is not the time to talk. Before Ni Chaomu and Ji Tang arrived, Xue You left first and flew to the Nascent Soul area.

After Xue You left quietly, Ni Chaomu and Ji Tang followed closely and rushed to where Wen Xingzhou was.

As soon as Ni Chaomu saw Wen Xingzhou, he got straight to the point and said, "Wen Xianjun, we have found some clues about Bi Heng's death and have come to discuss it with you."

Wen Xingzhou's heart trembled. He knew very well that Zhao Yu Zhenjun's disciple had always acted decisively. Since he said he had found a clue, he must have made a discovery.

He said seriously, "Ni Xianjun, what is the clue?"

After Wen Xingzhou finished speaking, he saw Ni Chaomu looking at Ji Tang, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his mind.

Ji Tang took out a jade box from his arms and opened it gently. Inside lay a broken jade pendant, which was Bi Heng's.

She handed the jade pendant to Wen Xingzhou and said in a deep voice, "Wen Xianjun, look at this jade pendant. There is a faint demonic aura on it, and there are also some strange marks."

Wen Xingzhou looked at the box in front of him, but did not take it. Instead, he looked up at Ji Tang and said in a deep voice, "Where did Ji Xianjun find this jade pendant?"

Ji Tang looked back, and that strange feeling came back. This Wen Xingzhou looked more like a charm cultivator than she and Ni Chaomu. Before Ji Tang could react, she stared at Wen Xingzhou's eyes and thought of this sentence.

"Ji Xianjun?"

Wen Xingzhou raised his voice slightly, emitting a tangible pressure from his body, and looked at Ji Tang with displeasure in his eyes.

Seeing this, Ni Chaomu frowned and looked at Ji Tang inquiringly.

She had been dealing with Wen Xingzhou since the Cangwu Trial was held in Xizhou. She knew that this Sword Immortal's eldest disciple was a warm and gentle person, with a calm demeanor that made him difficult to detect.

Ni Chaomu was half curious and half urging, wanting to know what Ji Tang had done in such a short time that made the usually gentle Wen Xianjun so angry that his emotions showed.

Of course, Ji Tang would not say what she was thinking just now. The pressure from the grandmaster made her suddenly dizzy head clear up instantly.

Ji Tang no longer thought about those trivial things. The overwhelming pressure like a mountain pressing down on her forced her to resist with all her might. However, she knew that she was in the wrong, so she had to tense up and bow deeply to apologize.

"Ji Tang was confused and spoke rudely. I hope Immortal Lord will forgive me. Ji Tang has no intention of offending you."

Wen Xingzhou stared at Ji Tang silently for a few moments, and then withdrew his pressure.

Ji Tang was obviously relieved, but his heart was full of doubts.

She didn't understand why she had suddenly lost her focus. She bowed deeply again and said, "Wen Xianjun, Ji Tang admits his mistake. This jade pendant was found in a valley in the secret realm. It was provided by a disciple who had met Bi Heng."

Wen Xingzhou nodded slightly, his eyes fell on the jade pendant again, but he did not reach out to take it.

He already had a plan in mind. The evil aura on the jade pendant and the sudden appearance of Xue You made him more convinced that the jade pendant in Ji Tang's hand was most likely a deliberate trap set up by someone.

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Ni Chaomu said, "We've only found this jade pendant so far. The clues on it point to the demon race. Right now, the alliance between the two races is at war with the demon race. If we're not careful, the alliance between the immortal sect and the demon race will be broken."

"Immortal Wen, we must expedite our efforts to uncover the true cause of Bi Heng's death..."

"What's the real cause of death, Ni Chaomu? Since you've found clues to my son's murder, why didn't you report it immediately?!"

Before Ni Chaomu could finish his words, he was interrupted angrily by Bi Kai who suddenly appeared.

He raised his hand and waved, and the jade box in Ji Tang's hand flew into his hand, and then injected spiritual energy into it. The scene of Bi Heng killing the Youlan Flower Demon appeared directly in front of everyone.

This time, Bi Kai came in to pick up his son's body and take it back to Tianyuan Sect, with many people from the immortal sect following him. Seeing Bi Heng's actions and thinking about the results of the autopsy not long ago, many people thought of Xue You.

The same was true for Bi Kai. A surge of anger emanated from him, and he gritted his teeth and chanted "Orchid Demon." He instantly left the secret realm.

It all happened in a split second.

"Master Bi, please calm down. Everything still needs to be verified!" Wen Xingzhou's heart sank, and he had to follow him immediately.

Wen Xingzhou chased Bi Kai out of the secret realm and saw that he was already standing in the center of the joint camp of the immortal sect and the demon clan, with many high-level officials from the immortal sect and the demon clan gathered around him.

Bi Kai's rage was so tangible that the air around him seemed to tremble. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he stared directly at the demon clan representative.

"You demons, how dare you kill my son!" Bi Kai's voice was like thunder, making everyone's ears buzz. "The image on this jade pendant is irrefutable evidence!"

The demon clan representative, an elderly flower demon elder under Lord Yaoying, stepped forward with a calm expression and responded, "Sect Master Bi, our demon clan and the Immortal Clan are allies, fighting together against the demon clan. Your son, Bi Heng, murdered our flower demon. This is an indisputable fact. And we haven't investigated the image on this jade pendant yet, yet you have the audacity to conclude that Bi Heng's death was the work of our demon clan based solely on this!"

Bi Kai snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Hmph, don't I know the true nature of your demon race? Bi Heng is my son, and I know his character best. How could he kill your flower demon for no reason? This is clearly a deliberate frame-up by your demon race!"

"Enough!" True Monarch Zhaoyu intervened, her voice calm and powerful. "Sect Master Bi, Elder Xin, now is not the time to argue. We should discuss how to uncover the truth and clear both sides of the charges."

Bi Kai glared at Ye Qingge, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes: "Zhao Yu Zhenjun, are you favoring the demon clan? My son was killed, and you are here to defend them!"

Ye Qingge's expression remained unchanged as he spoke in a deep voice, "Sect Master Bi, I uphold truth and justice. We cannot jump to conclusions based solely on the image on a jade pendant. You should calm down and investigate this matter together."

Elder Xin also took the opportunity to say, "True Lord, what you said makes sense. We, the demon race, have always abided by the agreement of our alliance and have never done anything to harm the immortal sect. In this incident, we also hope to find out the truth."

However, Bi Kai did not give up. Filled with anger and a desire for revenge, he decided to resort to more drastic measures to achieve his goal. He shouted, "Xue You, come out here! You murderer, how dare you kill my son!"

Wen Xingzhou was startled when he heard Bi Kai's shout, realizing that he was deliberately provoking him. He immediately responded, "Master Bi, you are making groundless accusations! Xue You didn't kill Bi Heng. What evidence do you have?"

Bi Kai snorted coldly, a flash of anger in his eyes. "Evidence? The image on this jade pendant is the evidence! That demon has entered the secret realm before. It has the motive and the opportunity to kill my son!"

Seeing this, King Yaoying chuckled and retorted, "Sect Master Bi, you are maliciously accusing me! Xueyou is a member of my demon clan. He has always abided by the alliance agreement and has never done anything to harm the immortal sect. You can't jump to conclusions based on the image on a jade pendant!"

Ye Qingge also said in a deep voice: "Sect Master Bi, we should remain calm and investigate this matter together. Your groundless accusations will only make things more complicated."

Bi Kai refused to give in and continued, "Zhao Yu Zhenjun, you are favoring the demon race! You can't just let my son Bi Heng's death go unsolved! I demand that Xue You be brought to justice immediately!"

Seeing Bi Kai being so aggressive, Wen Xingzhou began to become suspicious.

He said in a deep voice, "Master Bi, you are deliberately creating trouble! Xue You didn't kill Bi Heng. What evidence do you have? If you insist on trying Xue You, then we also demand a thorough investigation into the source of this jade pendant!"

Bi Kai sneered, "Wen Xingzhou, are you shielding the demon race? Don't you, the Xuanling Sect, bear any responsibility for my son Bi Heng's death? Xue You has a close relationship with your Xuanling Sect, so don't you suspect that you are shielding the demon race?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the camp instantly reached a fever pitch. The leaders of the Immortal Sect and the Demon Clan all turned their gazes to Wen Xingzhou, awaiting his response.

Wen Xingzhou's face darkened. He knew very well that Bi Kai was deliberately trying to link up with Xuanling Sect and drag Xuanling Sect into the water.

He said in a deep voice, "Master Bi, you are maliciously slandering me! Xuanling Sect has always upheld justice and has never shielded anyone. I will conduct a thorough investigation into the origin of the jade pendant and find out the truth!"

Seeing this, Ye Qingge hurriedly intervened, "Sect Master Bi, Immortal Lord Wen, now is not the time to argue. We should discuss together how to uncover the truth and clear both sides of the charges."

King Yao Ying also took the opportunity to say, "True Lord, what you said makes sense. We, the demon race, are willing to cooperate with the investigation and find out the truth. But we also request a comprehensive investigation into the cause of Bi Heng's death. We cannot jump to conclusions based solely on the image on a jade pendant."

Although Bi Kai was angry, he gradually calmed down after being persuaded by Ye Qingge and King Yaoying.

He knew very well that arguing would not solve the problem at this time, and going too far would make him look suspicious.

"Okay, then let's find out the truth!" Bi Kai said in a deep voice, "But I require that this investigation must involve people from my Tianyuan Sect. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee the fairness of the investigation."

King Yao Ying nodded slightly in agreement: "Yes, but our demon tribe must also participate in the investigation to ensure its fairness."

Ye Qingge breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that both sides had reached a preliminary consensus. The most important thing now was to find out the truth and prevent the alliance between the immortal sect and the demon race from breaking down.

"In that case, please ask both sides to send representatives to jointly investigate this matter," Ye Qingge suggested. "During the investigation, we should all exercise restraint and avoid unnecessary conflict."

After a brief discussion, Bi Kai and King Yaoying agreed to Ye Qingge's proposal.

Both sides sent several representatives to form a joint investigation team.

Wen Xingzhou, as one of the representatives of Xuanling Sect, also participated in the investigation.

The quarrel gradually died down, but the atmosphere in the camp remained tense.

The high-ranking officials of the Immortal Sect and the Demon Clan each retreated, preparing to participate in the investigation. Ye Qingge watched them leave, praying silently in his heart, hoping that this investigation would uncover the truth and avert a greater disaster.

However, Bi Kai had his own plans in mind. He decided to secretly create trouble on his way back to Tianyuan Sect to further sow discord between the immortal sect and the demon clan.

As long as his plan can be implemented smoothly, Tianyuan Sect will be able to stand out from this dispute and become the overlord of Zhongzhou.

On the way back to Tianyuan Sect, Bi Kai secretly summoned a group of loyal disciples, preparing to create chaos during the investigation and further provoke the relationship between the immortal sect and the demon clan.

"Remember, our target is the demon clan, especially Xue You, who has close ties with the Xuanling Sect. During the investigation, you must create some incidents to further intensify the conflict between the immortal sect and the demon clan."

Bi Kai said in a deep voice, "As long as we can break the relationship between the immortal sect and the demon clan, the Tianyuan Sect will be able to gain greater benefits."

All the disciples nodded, indicating that they understood. A conspiracy to destroy the alliance between the two tribes was completely launched.
