Chapter 5392 Where does the evil spirit come from?

"What a bastard, he actually did such a waste of resources. If he fully utilized the Star Source Earth Veins, I can still understand that he actually lost 70% of the energy. This is simply a waste of resources."

Ji Youjian looked angry and said in a bad mood.

Nie Rou looked thoughtful and said to Chen Yang: "Dongfang Xuan, after all, these are your guesses based on the information. There is no conclusive evidence. Moreover, who can quietly lead away the star source earth veins? This is really a big deal." Pretty weird stuff.”

"I feel weird too."

A look of doubt flashed in Chen Yang's eyes, and he said: "There is a formation in the underground palace, I can already confirm this. But that formation existed before the earthquake, and judging from the seal carving marks of the formation, it took at least 100 years of effort before and after. It took decades to set up the formation, but..."

Before Chen Yang could finish speaking, Ji Youjian's expression changed and he took over the conversation: "There have always been cultivators from the Yongting branch in the underground palace guarding the star source earth line, and there are many overlords, but the other party was able to spend a few days without even noticing. Ten years to set up the formation, this..."

After a pause, Ji Youjian stared at Chen Yang solemnly and said, "You mean there is an insider in Yongting Branch?"

"That is indeed what I guessed." Chen Yang nodded and said, "Moreover, this mole is of a very high level. Otherwise, he would not have been able to hide it from the eyes of the underground palace guards."

"Who could it be?" Ji Youjian frowned and gritted his teeth: "If you let me know, I will definitely skin him."

Nie Rou solemnly said: "Except for the guards, those who can enter the underground palace are all senior officials of Yongting branch. Although the Xingyuan leyline has been damaged for many years, if we are to investigate, the total number of people who can actually have the opportunity to set up formations here is There are less than fifty people. It’s not too difficult to trace them.”

"The problem is that over the years, most of these fifty people have left. Some have returned to Tiger Devouring Peak, and some have been transferred to other branches. It is not easy to trace them."

Ji Youjian said with a bitter face, as the veteran of Yongting Branch, he knows the situation of Yongting Branch best.

Nie Rou thought about it: "Since we can't investigate the people who left, let's start with the people who stayed in Yongting Branch."

"If we stay in Yongting and take the helm, but destroy the Xingyuan earth line, wouldn't this be a mental illness?"

Ji Youjian rolled his eyes and disagreed with Nie Rou's plan, and continued: "What's more, all these years, there are only three people who have stayed in the Yongting branch, Captain Ge, myself, and Hall Master Hu. Do you think, Will the three of us do anything to damage the Star Source earth line?"

Upon hearing this, Nie Rou looked embarrassed and hurriedly explained: "Vice Captain Ji, I don't doubt you, I don't know either..."

"Okay, I don't blame you."

Ji Youjian waved his hand, turned to look at Chen Yang, and said, "How sure are you of your speculation just now?"

Chen Yang said: "It is currently 70%. We will not dare to draw the final conclusion until the entire star source earth veins are investigated."

"So, nine out of ten there is an evil spirit." Ji Youjian pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, when I go back later, I will inform Master Ge of the matter and let him investigate secretly."

Chen Yang nodded in agreement, and continued: "After I have looked at the entire Star Source leyline, I should be able to determine where the energy is directed. At that time, this will also be a very important information, which will be of great help in investigating the inner ghost. s help."

"That's very good."

Ji Youjian's eyes lit up and he smiled: "Whoever benefits will naturally be the one who did it. It would be too simple to investigate like this."

Chen Yang didn't think things would be that simple.

The formations in the underground palace are not very sophisticated, and it usually only takes a few months to complete the layout.

But that person spent decades setting up the formation, and used exquisite techniques to integrate the formation pattern into the underground palace, making it difficult for people to detect.

Such patience and carefulness are something that only a few people can achieve.

If Chen Yang didn't have the "Book of Immortals and Demons" and Lao Li was on hand to help check, he wouldn't have been able to detect the fishy things in the underground palace.

And with that person's mind, he must have thought that someone might discover the formation.

Therefore, that person should have already had a way out. Even if Chen Yang found out everything, he would not reveal any information about that person.

After retracting his thoughts, Chen Yang asked Ji Youjian: "By the way, Deputy Chief Ji, apart from you and Chief Ge, the three people you mentioned just now, who is the other Hall Master Hu? Why haven't I seen him before? "

"Hallmaster Hu was seriously injured in a battle in his early years. After that, he failed to recover and was in a semi-retired state. He worked in Yongting all day long to farm and water flowers."

Ji Youjian sighed sadly and turned to look at Chen Yang, with a look of displeasure flashing in his eyes: "Brother Dongfang, are you doubting Hall Master Hu?"

"Of course not, I was just asking casually." Chen Yang smiled.

Ji Youjian said in a deep voice: "I can tell you that Hall Master Hu and I were good brothers through life and death. I can vouch for his character."

"I don't need your guarantee, Vice Helmsman Ji, and I won't doubt you." Chen Yang laughed dumbly and said: "As you said, since the energy of the Star Source Earth Vein has been diverted away, if you still stay at the Yongting Branch, then That’s too stupid. Isn’t this completely self-sacrifice for others? Anyway, in my opinion, you can’t do it.”

Ji Youjian was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Are you teasing me and saying that I won't sacrifice myself for others?"

"Hahaha……"

Chen Yang laughed. Ji Youjian knew it was a joke and he was also happy.

At this time, the three of them had entered the Yongting sub-rudder and headed straight to the conference hall on the top of the mountain.

Before entering the meeting hall, the serious atmosphere made Chen Yang and the others frown. They always felt that the matter was more complicated and serious than imagined.

Ji Youjian waved to the guard outside the meeting hall. The guard quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Vice-ruler Ji, what are your orders?"

Ji Youjian said: "What happened? Why did the solemn and solemn atmosphere envelope the entire meeting hall, which made people very uncomfortable."

The guard said: "We don't know what happened. We only know that someone entered the meeting hall and immediately started arguing with Captain Ge. After that, we seemed to hear Senior Brother Dongfang being mentioned, but no other sound was heard."

"Isn't it because someone is looking for trouble with you?"

Ji Youjian turned to look at Chen Yang and said, "Didn't you say that Peng Yan from Tiger Devouring Peak has some issues with you? Could it be that guy who wants to deal with you?"

Chen Yang was also puzzled. Apart from the news from Tiger Devouring Peak, there seemed to be nothing that would make Ge Yinxiang so anxious for Chen Yang to return.

At this moment, suddenly, a strong demonic aura came out of the meeting hall, covering Chen Yang, Ji Youjian, and Nie Rou.

Although the demonic energy was not enough to suppress Ji Youjian and the other three, the entire Yongting branch was made up of human cultivators, so the sudden demonic aura was really weird.
