Chapter 123 Rumor

Just as Lu Xiaotian was sleeping leisurely on the canopy of the tree, the two groups of people in the grotto were indeed feeling very heavy.

The grotto was filled with bloody and rancid smells, and many black-scaled wind snakes that passed through the holes of the spirit net were killed by Wu Yan and people who took turns guarding the side. There were no less than a hundred black snake corpses lying on the ground. Although a lot of demon pills had been harvested, which was a considerable gain for most monks of Lingxiao Palace, none of them showed any joy on their faces. In order to maintain ample mana while continuing to fight, and prevent the cultivators from the Valley of the Evil Spirits from killing them, they had to use spirit stones to restore mana. After a day, the continuous fighting consumed a lot of spirit stones. And things haven't gotten any better.

Wu Yan's white face was ashen, and she didn't speak. The team's predicament was caused by her miscalculation of the situation. At this moment, she couldn't think of any way out even though she was racking her brains. Although she was not as arrogant and conceited as other foundation-building heirs in Lingxiao Palace, she still had a bit of arrogance in her heart, but at this moment, this bit of arrogance had been crushed to pieces by the ruthless facts.

"You said, Junior Brother Lu has gone out, will you find a way to rescue us too?" Zhu Ang panted while leaning his back against the stone wall after being replaced.

"Don't dream, he is alone, it's good enough to survive, he doesn't care about us, there are many monks ambushing outside the Evil Spirit Valley, what role can he play alone?" The woman who had laughed at Lu Xiaotian before Archer Wang Ningmei pouted and said.

"It's also possible that Junior Brother Lu lived alone for more than 20 days before he met us. If he happened to meet another team from our Lingxiao Palace and come back, wouldn't we be saved?" Zhu Ling's impression of Lu Xiaotian was not bad, and she also knew that at this time when they were in a desperate situation, they could only pin their hopes on such a small hope.

"There is a rumor, I don't know if you have heard of it." Zhu Yuchun who was sitting next to Zhu Ang suddenly remembered something.

"What rumor?" Zhu Ling asked.

"You guys should know Luo Qian from Lingtian Peak Region?" Zhu Yuchun said.

"Among the disciples of Lingxiao Palace, Luo Qian's strength can be ranked among the top ten. Even if he has never seen it, he has always heard of it. But no matter how powerful he is, what does it have to do with us now." Wang Ning said with a snort.

"A friend of mine in the Lingtian Peak Region told me that a few days before we entered the Scarlet Forbidden Area, Luo Qian was defeated by a little-known Qi Refining Simultaneous Disciple in the Qinglian Peak Region." Zhu Yuchun said hesitantly. .

"What? Qinglian Peak Region? There are no outstanding disciples. Luo Qianneng was defeated by people from Qinglian Peak Region? How come I haven't heard of such a sensational incident? You usually talk a lot, and I'm afraid you don't have a few words. Really." Zhu Ling was the first to question, and everyone present showed disbelief.

"That's right, before entering the Scarlet Forbidden Land, I went to the fighting platform every day. Luo Qian has never fought with the disciples of Qinglian Peak." Wang Ningmei also said.

Zhu Yuchun immediately said with displeasure on his face, "Am I like someone who talks nonsense? This fight didn't take place in the Wudoutai at all, but in the Lingtian Peak area. It was said that the disciple of Qinglian Peak was in Fangshi Offended Luo Qian, and later happened to pass through the Lingtian Peak area. Luo Qian personally led someone to block him. First, a follower named Zhang Tao of Luo Qian was defeated. He was able to please, but he was seriously injured. Later, he became angry and wanted to use the magic weapon thunder gun. I heard that it alarmed the senior foundation establishment in Lingtian Peak. Luo Qian has a background, so naturally he was not severely punished. His follower is out of luck. This story has been passed on in an orderly manner, and there should be no falsehood."

"Nonsense, how could such a big matter not be spread? Besides, how could a disciple in the Qi refining period who is more powerful than Luo Qian have a nameless name in Lingxiao Palace." Wang Ningmei didn't believe it anyway.

"Luo Qian was defeated by an unknown disciple. Naturally, he doesn't want to say anything about such a shameful thing. It's normal if you haven't heard of it." Seeing that most of the people present were skeptical, Zhu Yuchun said unhappily.

"It's not entirely groundless. Luo Qian was indeed injured before entering the Scarlet Forbidden Land." Wu Yan, who had been sinking in remorse and self-blame, suddenly said at this moment. Her father was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator. There are more ordinary disciples. Her father also specifically told her to pay attention to the disciples of Qinglian Peak after she entered the Scarlet Forbidden Ground, but she didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns.

"Look, even Senior Sister Wu said it, so I'm right." Zhu Yuchun raised his head proudly and said.

"Even if senior brother Luo Qian is injured, it may not be Lu Xiaotian's fault." Leng Qiaoyu, who is on good terms with Wang Ningmei, retorted.

"That's not necessarily true, Junior Brother Lu is also a disciple of Qinglian Peak Region, and there are less than three teams of disciples entering the Scarlet Forbidden Area from Qinglian Peak Region. Among them, Qian Xu's team is dead or injured, and Junior Brother Lu can survive. Up to now, it has its own advantages."

Zhu Ang, like Zhu Yuchun, had an instinctive aversion to elite disciples like Luo Qian. It is precisely because of these people’s different backgrounds that most of the Xiaobi Zhuji Dan of Lingxiao Palace have been recruited by elite disciples. They really have no background. It is very difficult for people from casual cultivators to stand out among Xiaobi. It can only be maintained at about one-two tenths at most.

Wu Yan and Zhu Ling were silent for a while. Given their current situation, they hoped that Lu Xiaotian was the one who defeated Luo Qian in the rumors, which gave them some hope. In fact, no matter how powerful a person is, he can't beat the Evil Spirit Valley The team of monks, but in the case of no other way, they can only pin their hopes on such illusory rumors.

"Senior Brother Ye, there has been no news from Junior Brother Bai who was sent to look for Senior Brother Liu, I'm afraid." Zhao Yong walked to Ye Xingping's side and tried to keep his tone calm, but he couldn't hide the worry on his face.

Ye Xingping paced back and forth, his sinister face made him look like a wounded beast, ready to violently choose someone to devour at any moment. With a glance, the faces of the other fellow students are also not good-looking, even Yu Liufeng, who had been giving him a sneak peek before, is not in such a leisurely mood at this moment, and sits on the side without raising his eyebrows.

Five people were sent out together twice, but there was no news at all, and they didn't even get a word back. It's obvious what it means to be in this dangerous forbidden area. It would be fine if he encountered a monster, Ye Xingping was most worried that there would be monks from other sects ambush outside. Now that his team has lost a lot of manpower, it can no longer afford other casualties.

"Senior Brother Ye, what should we do now?" Yu Liufeng asked pitifully.

"Tonight, while the disciples of Lingxiao Palace were not paying attention, they withdrew from the grotto one after another."

After a long while, Ye Xingping made a difficult decision. Although giving up at this time to trap the disciples of Lingxiao Palace led to the wastage of previous efforts, there are monks from other sects outside who are secretly doing tricks. If they continue to stay in the grotto, they may be with the disciples of Lingxiao Palace at any time. Generally in a desperate situation. Compared with spiritual objects, your own life is more important.
