She is Jianxiu

Chapter 1246 Who is the Yellow Bird?

In the underground secret palace, Zhao Yu and others also found the hidden door in the stone wall. Seeing that the restriction had been destroyed, Zhang Zhi's face changed slightly and he frowned and said, "Oh no, someone is one step ahead of us!"

After thinking for a while, he deduced the identity of the person and said, "Among the various sects in Beiyun, only Ji Sui, Liang Yanfang, and Cao Jian have any knowledge of forbidden formations. If the person who sneaked in is Liang Yanfang, it proves that Wang Que and Duan Renxiu are most likely dead. If not... I'm afraid it must be Ji Sui who came in."

Zhao Yu shook his head and said confidently, "It's Cao Jian."

Although Zhang Zhi's first guess was Ji and Liang, seeing Zhao Yu's firm tone and calm expression, he could not help but believe her a little and asked, "What do you think, Daoist Zhao?"

"Liang Yanfang is dead." Zhao Yu looked over and smiled at her calmly, saying calmly, "Ji Sui will be dead soon too."

Suddenly, there seemed to be a gust of cold wind blowing, making Zhang Zhi and Zheng Qiuji feel cold at the same time. Although they didn't know how Zhao Yu came to this conclusion, they had doubts in their hearts. They didn't need to think about it carefully, and they knew that this was definitely the work of the person in front of them. However, no matter which one Ji Yang and Liang Yanfang took out, they were both famous figures in Beiyunzhou, and it was even more difficult to meet opponents of the same level. Just like this, people couldn't help but feel terrified by Zhao Yu's words!

But on second thought, when Zheng Qiuji was passing the message to the two of them, he did say that Ji Sui wanted to set an ambush on Milcheng Plain. At that time, Zhao Yu had reassured the two of them and said that the matter would be left to her to handle. Zhang Zhi had never thought about it carefully, so how could she have expected that Zhao Yu would really have a way to deal with it.

She lowered her eyes and remained silent, pretending to be waiting to be told what to do, but she felt even more afraid.

Zheng Qiuji showed curiosity on his face and wanted to ask several times, but he suppressed his excitement and finally did not dare to ask.

Zhao Yu had no intention of explaining the reason to the two men, so he immediately pushed open the stone door and motioned for the two men to follow him.

Two years ago, when Zheng Qiuji broke the news, she moved her original body that had been left in Wuquan Mountain here, intending to play the role of a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Moreover, at that time, half of the Yin-Yang flag was still in the hands of the cultivator from Wenwang Mountain, so it would be quite easy for Zhao Yu's original body to find the other party. She just didn't expect that she had seen the person holding the flag before. It was Ji Yancai, whose clone she had shattered before. Zhao Yu took the opportunity to kill the other party, and then killed Ji Sui.

As for Liang Yanfang, Zhao Yu had promised Wu Tanqing to deal with this man. Now that he has died at the hands of Ji Sui, it saved her some effort.

Now that all internal and external troubles have been resolved, we can explore this underground secret palace to its fullest.

She was only at the middle stage of externalization now, so the power of her clone was naturally not as strong as her main body. Moreover, Ji Sui had just fought a hard battle. Zhao Yu did not use much strength, but just relied on her powerful true essence to crush him. The opponent was naturally defeated and her soul was taken from his skull. Judging from this, he was even more severely eroded by the demon than Ji Yang.

Zhao Yu crushed them and used the escape technique to go to Wenwang Mountain. Now that Ji Sui and Ji Yang were dead, it was no exaggeration to say that this sect was deserted. The remaining elders and disciples certainly did not pose much of a threat, but it allowed her to take a closer look at what was happening in Wenwang Mountain.

He then conveyed a message to Yang Cang, asking him to come forward and take him away immediately. Only then did Zhao Yu float away.

In the secret palace, Duan Renxiu had already followed the traces of the fight and quickly came to the place arranged by Zheng Qiuji earlier. He glanced around and saw that in addition to the mess on the ground, there were also many sword marks scattered around, and the sharpness on them was still there. It was obvious at a glance that the swordsman's skills were amazing. I'm afraid that only a real swordsman who came here could create such a scene!

Seeing this, Duan Renxiu's face turned pale, and he saw a headless body on the ground, so he hurried over to investigate. "This, this is!"

With Duan Renxiu's eyesight, how could he not see that this headless corpse was Ji Yang himself? Unexpectedly, the other party did not come out of the secret palace for a long time, and it turned out that he had already died in there!

"Impossible. Zhang Zhi is not good at fighting, so how could he be Ji Yang's opponent? The person who killed Ji Yang is most likely the swordsman." He looked up and gradually had the answer in his mind. There are not many externalized cultivators in Beiyun Continent, and the only person who entered the secret palace today was a stranger, the guest official of Zhuxuan Sect. The person who made the move was most likely her!

In a flash, Duan Renxiu's eyes flashed, and he remembered that there was another person who chased Zhao Yu into the room at that time, and that person was Zheng Qiuji who came here with him today.

"The leader has long been suspicious of him, and now it seems that Zheng Qiuji has indeed betrayed him."

Otherwise, there would be two corpses to be seen now.

However, he was hesitant, not knowing whether he should chase after him or turn around and leave. After all, even Ji Yang had died under the opponent's sword, and going there alone would be tantamount to committing suicide.

After thinking it over, even Duan Renxiu couldn't help but feel a little bit of retreat in his heart. He thought to himself that since such a big thing had happened, he must send someone to inform the headmaster, so he left without looking back, without any further hesitation.

After passing through the hidden door, the light suddenly dimmed, and the surroundings were dark. A lingering smell of decay also came to the nose.

Zhao Yu used her spiritual sense to explore forward, but found that even so, she could not see everything at a glance. She really did not know what was so strange about the inner layer of this secret palace. She was still like this, so she did not expect Zhang Zhi and Zheng Qiuji to go any further. The three of them followed and walked in. They felt the road under their feet spiral downward and gradually walked into a narrow and deep path.

The place was very narrow with walls on both sides, and because of the difficulty in flying or walking due to the difficulty in spiritual awareness, he could only measure with his feet. After walking more than 500 steps, he saw a star of light.

Seeing the light, the three of them quickened their pace. When they were completely freed from this narrow path, Zhao Yu and others realized that they had arrived at a circular platform. This place looked like a Taoist temple, and the entire secret palace was as cold and gloomy as a tomb. They were afraid that this was really the remains left behind by a great monk who had died here.

"That's... Cao Jian?"

Zhang Zhi exclaimed, and saw a very familiar figure standing with his back to him, so he wanted to go forward to confirm it. Unfortunately, before he had the thought, Cao Jian turned around with stiff limbs. His face was pale, his eyes bulged forward, and his face was twisted into a mixture of tears and laughter. Zhang Zhi was immediately frightened and took a half step back!

At this time, Zhao Yu and Zheng Qiuji also looked over. Cao Jian opened his mouth and murmured something, making only some intermittent and vague sounds. After a moment, the top of his forehead suddenly bulged forward, and then swelled up as if blown, and with a bang, it exploded along with his body, leaving only a fist-sized blood-red object that quickly crawled away from the ground.
