Leng Zhuxin's words made sense, and Chu He stopped walking.

I didn't care about completing the task and thought about going back to the sect first.

Just after he took two steps, a Thunder Flame Beast suddenly rushed out. Before Chu He could react, he subconsciously swung his sword and directly stabbed the Thunder Flame Beast in the forehead.

Leng Zhuxin stepped forward and struck another blow. "This Thunder Flame Beast showed up just in time, voluntarily seeking death. We can just finish it off and rush back to the sect."

The Thunder Flame Beast was seriously injured and fell to the ground after being hit by Leng Zhuxin's sword.

He killed it with another sword, aimed at the location of the inner elixir, stabbed and poked inside, and took out the orange-red inner elixir.

Chu He bent down, picked up the bloody inner elixir, wiped it, and put it in the box, then put the corpse of the Thunder Flame Beast into his storage bag.

"Senior Sister, I'll go back and cook the skin and bones of the Thunder Flame Beast and send them to you when I have time."

He knew that Leng Zhuxin didn't like to put the corpses of monsters in the space, so he took over his own space first.

Leng Zhuxin had no objection to this. He nodded, performed a cleaning spell to clean the Feishuang Sword, put it into the scabbard, and walked out of the forest.

The two hired two cranes at the sect's contact point outside the forest and returned to Qingxuan Sect.

I first went to the Law Enforcement Hall to report the disappearance of Leng Yueyao and Zhang Wulei, and then went to the Mission Hall to hand in the mission.

The moment the contribution points arrived, the two of them simultaneously transferred them to Tang Xiuhe.

Just as he was about to walk out of the mission hall, he was blocked by Yang Jun and his men.

Yang Jun brought a small number of people with him, only two, but both were at the Jindan stage. Leng Zhuxin knew what they were going to do, but still pretended to be confused.

Chu He had no idea what was going on, and the confusion on his face was no lie.

Chu He looked at Yang Jun who was standing in front of them and asked politely, "I wonder what Senior Brother Yang wants to talk to us about?"

No one provoked Chang Hengshan and his master and disciples, so Yang Jun did not take direct action like he did to Xuanyuan Zi at noon. Of course, it might also be because he took into account the identities of Chu He and Leng Zhuxin.

Although his face was gloomy, his tone was not too bad. "You are going to Qingxuan Forest today. Are Zhang Wulei and Leng Yueyao going with you?"

"Not really. Senior Sister Leng and I are going to Xuanling Forest to complete a mission, and they should be going the same way. We just happen to be going the same way.

However, after entering the Xuanling Forest, Senior Sister Leng and I were trapped in a maze, and when we emerged, Junior Brother Zhang and the others were nowhere to be found."

When Chu He heard that Yang Jun was asking about the disappearance of Leng Yueyao and Zhang Wulei, he secretly sighed that the Law Enforcement Hall was really fast, and then answered in detail.

But then he thought again, the Mission Hall is next to the Law Enforcement Hall. Even if the Law Enforcement Hall immediately sent a message to Yang Jun, it is impossible for Yang Jun to come so quickly. Yang Jun has probably been waiting for them here.

Yang Jun probably suspected that the disappearance of Zhang Wu Lei and Leng Yue Yao was related to the two of them.

So when Yang Jun asked if they were together all the time, Chu He answered yes without any hesitation.

Yang Jun glanced at Leng Zhuxin, who was standing calmly beside Chu He, and asked Chu He, "Did you never leave his sight in the maze?"

"Yes!"

Chu He lied. He didn't see Leng Zhuxin because of the thick fog in the maze, but he believed that Leng Zhuxin was not someone who would kill for no reason.

What's more, Leng Zhuxin was also practicing Qigong, so it was impossible for him to predict in advance that Zhang Wulei and Leng Yueyao would follow him, so it was naturally impossible for him to set up a maze in advance.

As soon as Yang Jun arrived at the dining hall today, he attacked Xuanyuan Zi. Although Xuanyuan Zi was indeed wrong, his attack was too decisive and cruel.

If he said that he had not seen Leng Zhuxin in the maze, it would probably bring trouble to Leng Zhuxin.

Compared with Leng Zhuxin and Yang Jun, he still prefers Leng Zhuxin, his senior sister and friend.

Yang Jun couldn't get anything out of him, and he knew that he would probably get the same answer if he asked Leng Zhuxin, so he took one last look at the two of them and left in a hurry.

In fact, he also felt that it was impossible for it to be Leng Zhuxin and Chu He. One of them was directly taught by the headmaster, and the other was directly taught by the master of Jianfeng Peak. Even if Leng Yueyao died, it was impossible for her to become Shangguan Heng's disciple.

Leng Yueyao had little contact with the two of them, and they really had no motive to harm Leng Yueyao and Zhang Wulei.

The reason they came to the Mission Hall to stop them was just to ask if there were any relevant clues. When they didn't get any information, they went straight to Yaofeng.

This morning, Xuanyuan Zi and Leng Yueyao had a conflict in the dining hall. It is possible that this matter is related to Xuanyuan Zi and his sister.

……

As soon as Yang Jun left, Chu He turned to look at Leng Zhuxin: "Senior Sister Leng, I'm afraid something happened to Zhang Wulei and the others. Yang Jun's visit may be because Chang Hengshan has doubts about us.

In order to avoid trouble, I lied to Senior Brother Yang.

I'm sorry, I didn't get Sister Leng's consent beforehand."

"Junior Brother Chu, you're too polite. Actually, I wasn't lying to him. We did get stuck in the maze together and came out together. I also think less is more. If you had asked me first, I would probably have said the same thing as Junior Brother Chu.

It's getting late. After I came back a few days ago, my master told me that there would be a sect competition at the end of the year, and asked me to go into seclusion to break through the foundation-building stage. Perhaps I will have to do this for the next two days. Some things are not prepared yet, so I will go back to prepare them first.

If you need anything, please leave me a message."

Leng Zhuxin smiled and took out her communication jade slip to exchange contact information with Chu He.

Hearing that there would be a sect competition at the end of the year, Chu He was also somewhat tempted. He thought of going back to the peak to ask Wu Xiang if he could participate, so he did not go to the dining hall for dinner and went straight back to the peak.

When the two of them returned to their own yards, Yang Jun had already led his men into Xuanyuan Zi's house.

Xuanyuan Zi was still lying in bed, and after taking the medicine, she looked better.

Xuanyuan Zi was very happy to see Yang Jun come in, thinking that she came to visit him because she was injured at noon. A hint of red appeared on her pale face, and she pinched her throat and called out softly, "Senior Brother Yang."
