Chapter 953

Hearing Nun Xuezhen's guess, all the elders frowned. Spies had existed in the Incense Cult for a long time, and they all knew about it. However, these spies were weak in martial arts and couldn't cause any big waves, so the Incense Cult didn't do much.

What's more, the Fragrant Cult also had spies in other sects. This was an open secret. If the Fragrant Cult wiped out all the spies in the other sects, the spies in the other sects would definitely meet the same fate. Thus, the other sects were well aware of this and turned a blind eye. They did not expose this matter. Previously, Jing Yi Shitai felt that some of the spies were causing a ruckus, so she only sent Zhang Xiaohua, the newly minted Guardian Disciple, to investigate. Didn't this prove this point?

As if Nun Xuezhen had seen through her thoughts, Nun Jing Yi's face sank. She said, "This is also my guess!"

Then, she looked out of the window and said leisurely, "But … the spies of the other sects are basically under the control of my Mo Neng Sect disciples, and they … don't have such strength!

Could it be the Tenryū Sect?

Or could it be a pawn that the mysterious power had placed in the Incense Cult long ago? "

Nun Jing Fan also nodded. "Sect Leader, you're right. Only these two sects have the strength to send people from the Xiantian Dao to spy in the Incense Cult!"

But then, Nun Jing Yi smiled bitterly. "The problem is, why did the Tenryū Sect do this to the Great Elder?

Could it be … that the Great Elder saw through some big secret? "

Nun Xuezhen exclaimed, "Sect Leader, you're right. Aren't the Jinghai Lake and Dianchi Lake the entrance to the Incense Cult's Sect-Protecting Formation?

The Tenryū Sect must have done something there, and the Great Elder Jing Gang found out, so the spies of the Tenryū Sect killed them! "

Nun Jing Yi nodded slightly.

At this time, Chen Chen suddenly asked, "But … I don't understand. Master Jing Gang … Why did she go to the Jinghai Lake?

Didn't she say that she was in closed-door cultivation? "

As soon as she said that, Peacock glared at her from the side.

Chen Chen was confused and looked at Nun Jingfan suspiciously.

Nun Jing Yi remained silent. After a long while, she asked, "Where is Ren Xiaoyao now?"

"Sect Leader Bing, this Ren Xiaoyao is quite diligent. First, he went to White Mountain Peak, then Wild Goose Peak … Out of the nineteen Spreading Fragrance Peaks, he went to four of them. That … when Grand Elder Jing Gang was found, he was at Kuanglu Peak, which was three days' journey from Calm Sea Lake … Now … I don't know where he went, but he should be on the way to Xiling Peak!"

"This fellow is rather clever … I guess he's rather lucky. After this … if Xi Mujun doesn't find trouble with him, I won't have anything to worry about!

Sigh, I thought that Eldest Senior Sister … "

At this point, Nun Jing Yi stopped talking. She turned around and walked to her seat. She raised her head and asked, "Last night, what happened to the earthquake?

Is there any news from the foot of the mountain? "

Nun Xue Zhen took a step forward and reported, "I sent my disciples down the mountain last night and they haven't returned yet. I don't know the reason!"

"Mm, Grand Elder Jing Gang has fallen and Xi Mujun is temporarily not at Lingxiang Peak. Ruijin Hall has been without a deputy hall master, so it's inconvenient to have no one to manage it.

Peacock … "

"Your disciple is here." Peacock immediately stepped forward.

"You'll temporarily be the hall master of Ruijin Hall. Chen Chen and Yuyan will assist you. First, familiarize yourself with the daily affairs."

"This …" Peacock was shocked. "Ruijin Hall is the first hall of our Lingxiang Peak. Your disciple … your disciple's talent is shallow. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, Sect Leader Bing. It's better to … let Master Bing be in charge while we assist her!"

Nun Jing Yi waved her hand. "There's no need. You're an inherited disciple and your status is fixed. If you don't experience the storm, how can you see the rainbow?

If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask your master. If you have any difficulties, you can also ask me! "

Peacock hesitated for a moment. Looking at Chen Chen and Yuyan's eager eyes, she could only bow. "Thank you, Sect Leader Bing!"

"Alright, Junior Sister Xuezhen. Send people to investigate the whereabouts of the spies that we already know. Find out who …"

Just as Nun Jing Yi said this, the entire Lingxiang Peak shook violently. Jade tiles and dust fell from the roof. Everyone lost their footing and almost fell down. Everyone was shocked and immediately used their qinggong to leap into the air. Only Nun Jing Yi's expression did not change. Her body floated up slightly and floated in the air.

When the shaking stopped, everyone calmed down. Nun Jing Yi released her divine sense to see what was happening outside. However, when her divine sense reached out for about two hundred feet, her expression changed drastically. She shouted sternly, "Junior Sister Xuezhen, hurry …"

Before she could finish speaking, a series of loud rumbling noises rang out. The entire mountain peak shook violently again, and this time, it was several times stronger than before. "Let's go …" Nun Jing Yi shouted, and her figure dashed out of Mo Xuan Palace. The people behind her didn't dare to delay, and all of them leaped out.

When everyone arrived outside Mo Xuan Palace, they saw that the entire peak was shaking left and right. It even sank a little!

Everyone felt that they could not stand. Those with weaker qinggong had already fallen down. There were also many who hugged trees and did not know what to do.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the shaking stopped. As for how much the peak sank, it was only a feeling and not something that could be measured.

"Honorable Cult Master, this subordinate will send someone to investigate …" Senior Nun Xuezhen's face was anxious. She bowed and was about to leave when Senior Nun Jing Yi said sternly, "Junior Martial Sister Xuezhen, there's no need to be anxious. Pass down the order immediately. First, find some capable people to go to Jinghai Lake and see if there's anything wrong with our Fragrant Cult's Great Protective Formation!

Then … "

Nun Jing Yi turned around and said to Peacock, "Peacock, send the best people from Ruijin Palace to assist Elder Xuezhen. Take down all the spies in our Sect Leader Xuezhen, no matter which sect they are from or what position they hold!

If there's any resistance, kill them all! "

Peacock was stunned. She immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Sect Leader!"

Nun Xuezhen was also stunned. She asked, "Sect Leader Bing, this …"

Without waiting for Abbess Xuezhen to finish speaking, a series of twelve sounds rang out in the distance. It was none other than twelve blood-red signals that had been released!

"Ah?"

Nun Jing Yi was not the only one who was shocked. She asked loudly, "This is … the direction of Jiu Hua Peak?

How … how did they send the most urgent signal? "

"Could it be that the Tenryū Sect is attacking Jiu Hua Peak?" Chen Chen asked anxiously.

"How is that possible? If the Tenryū Sect is attacking, it's Jinghai Lake that sent the signal!" Peacock frowned.

At this moment, a disciple of Ruijin Palace hurriedly came over with a disciple of Mo Xuan Palace. When he saw Nun Jing Yi, he shouted, "Sect Leader Bing, our Lingxiang Peak's protective array …"

"What's wrong with the protective array?" Nun Jing Yi calmed down when she heard this.

"Disciple … Disciple also doesn't know. Just now, Lingering Fragrance Peak was shaking. When we were patrolling at the foot of the mountain, we saw that Lingering Fragrance Peak had sunk a lot. There were also many brilliant lights flashing in the air. It was abnormally bright. When the shaking stopped, I … I, the disciples outside of Lingering Fragrance Peak … could actually see the true scenery of the peak …"

"Ah?

The protective array … "Chen Chen could not help but shout," I'm afraid it's gone! "

"Don't talk nonsense." Peacock heard this and immediately scolded.

"What Chen Chen said … might be true!"

Nun Jing Yi shook her head slightly. She looked worriedly at the twelve blood-red signals in the sky and said, "Let's go and take a look!"

When they arrived at Lingxiang Peak, other people might not know, but Nun Jing Yi scanned with her Divine Sense. How could she not know?

Her eyes flickered as she looked at the original protective array. After a while, she ordered, "Junior Sister Xuezhen, Peacock, immediately send out the elite disciples. Hmm, mobilize the disciples of Wuming Hall and quickly go to Jinghai Lake to set up a defense. If the protective array is like this, then there's probably a problem with the protective array.

Also, send disciples to Jiuhua Peak to see what's going on. "

"Yes." Both of them bowed.

"Also, pass down my order. All the inner disciples of Lingxiang Peak should immediately get ready. Those who are in seclusion should all come out!

Our Lingxiang Sect is facing a turning point! "

"Turning point?" Everyone was surprised, but they also seemed to be deep in thought.

"That's right. The Lingxiang Sect has been protected by the protective array of the Immortal Path for a long time, but now the Immortal Path has been destroyed for tens of thousands of years. The Qi of Heaven and Earth is scarce. There are always heaven-defying methods, but there will be a time when they run out of power. This moment will come sooner or later, but it will come sooner than we expected."

"Hahaha, but elders, there's no need to be afraid. The Lingxiang Sect belongs to the Jianghu, and the Jianghu also belongs to the Lingxiang Sect. We've just returned to the Jianghu. We've already prepared for this. Hehe, this preparation was originally left for Peacock, but now we can only reluctantly do it!"

When the elders heard Nun Jing Yi's order to check Jinghai Lake and the protective array, their hearts were beating wildly. They were both surprised and happy. Only when Nun Jing Yi confirmed it again did someone ask, "Sir Leader, do you mean that from now on, the Lingxiang Sect will be like an ordinary sect in the Jianghu … We can move around the Jianghu often?"

Nun Jing Yi glanced at her and nodded. "I know. Because of the sect's rules, you can only guard the Incense Sect. Now that the sect's protective array is gone, we've returned to the jianghu. Of course you can …"

"The protective array … How could it be gone?

But … there hasn't been any news?

Sir Leader, how could … "The impatient Chen Chen asked anxiously.

"Silly child, I have my ways." Nun Jing Yi sighed when she saw that she could only release her Divine Sense to a range of two hundred feet!

"Then … Disciples … Won't it be another year before we can get out of the passage?" Chen Chen was still worried, but his eyes were shining with joy.

"You …" Nun Jing Yi smiled bitterly. What she was worried about was not known by disciples like Chen Chen. Chen Chen's thoughts were simpler and more direct.
