After reading my mind, all the villains in the family are in trouble

After obtaining the spiritual fire, Ning Zhishui's main mission in coming to Fire Valley was completed.

Just as he was about to leave the valley leisurely, he received a message from President Meng——

"Zhishui, the time for the first exchange meeting before the Xiancao Association has been set. It will be on the fifth day of next month. The place is set to be Mengwuze. You must remember to arrive one day in advance."

It's the fifth day of next month, so there's less than a month left.

Ning Zhishui calculated the time and agreed.

The exchange meeting that President Meng mentioned is a grand gathering for alchemists of all levels in Jiangbaizhou to exchange ideas and learn together.

At the grand event, everyone will discuss new elixir recipes, exchange alchemy techniques, and exchange experiences.

If there are things that we don’t understand or are easy to make mistakes, everyone will give each other pointers.

There is no doubt that this is an opportunity to improve the overall strength, and it is also a means to select high-quality alchemists for the Immortal Grass Society.

The Xiancao Meeting will start in more than four months. Ten days before the start, each continent will submit the final list of participants, and this list will be judged based on the performance of each person at the exchange meeting.

In addition to the participants, the presidents of the alchemy clubs in each city will also go there to communicate, so that the newly learned methods can be passed on to the alchemists in the club to improve the overall strength.

In the same way, each sect will send more or less individuals there. Those who can get the qualifications to participate in the Fairy Grass Association are the best. If not, just study.

A rough calculation showed that the first exchange meeting had the largest number of attendees, numbering in the thousands.

The next two and three games will have fewer people each time until the final list is selected.

According to the previous rules, each continent will send one hundred of the strongest alchemists to participate in the three-continent competition, and then it will be the real feast.

Whether Ning Zhishui is a "role model" or a participating alchemist, she has a reason to attend the exchange meeting, and she cannot be absent.

There was still plenty of time, but Ning Zhishui did not deliberately slow down her pace. On the contrary, in order to visit more places, she went faster when she left the valley.

The closest to the Valley of Fire was a small village. Ning Zhishui didn't go to the village when he came, but he passed through the small village when he left.

Because you will reach the Wind Howling Forest directly through the small village. There is a reason why Ning Zhishui must go to that place.

……

"This is it. The Stealth Bee is lingering here."

The guard closed the small cloth bag and took in the hidden bees who were tired from the journey and let them rest.

Because he knew that Chen Chaomeng had come to Fire Valley, it was not difficult to find her. He followed her traces and found this place.

Fortunately, they chased him quickly, and fortunately there were not many people coming to this dark pit, so the smell did not completely dissipate and they were still able to find him.

Chen Xiao's face was gloomy, "It's the traces of fire, but there's no bones other than that. Who is this -"

He seemed to say it through gritted teeth, and his eyes were a little blood red.

Chen Xiao is Chen Chaomeng's brother. They have the same father and mother.

The Chen family has a great cause and has countless descendants, but only the two of them have the same blood.

Chen Xiao's strength is higher than that of Chen Chaomeng. He has already made up his mind to protect his sister for the rest of his life. Anyway, he and the Chen family both have this ability.

But he didn't expect that his little sister would only live for more than 20 years before dying unexpectedly. How could he bear this!
And now it has been completely destroyed, and even the bones can’t be found!

"Sir, this doesn't seem like an ordinary fire... Look here."

The guard pointed to the ground, which was the part where several people touched the ground while burning.

The black pit here was originally scorched black, but it was particularly different here. If it was just an ordinary fire, it would be impossible to cover up the previous fire marks.

"Is this...spiritual fire?"

When Chen Xiao saw it, his heart sank.

As one of the most focused disciples of the Chen family, his eyesight is unmatched by ordinary people.

Because there is an ancestor in the Chen family who is the master of the spiritual fire, and that ancestor made detailed records of the entire process of finding, integrating, and using the spiritual fire.

Moreover, that person also recognized several other people who had spiritual fires. They had communicated with each other in private and concluded that they had spiritual fires in common.

Chen Xiao had read that note, so he quickly concluded that only spiritual fire could reach such a level.

It was not difficult to find it after making the discovery. Soon Chen Xiao found the place where the spirit fire once lived, and even found the bones that were very close to the spirit fire.

"There are no signs of fighting here. It seems that the young lady and the others encountered the spiritual fire and had an accident when they wanted to subdue it, so that's why..." The guard couldn't help but sigh.

If anyone was involved, there would definitely be messy traces of battle here.

But there was nothing unusual here, and the fact that they died so suddenly that they didn't even have time to transmit their message... showed that everything happened too fast.

If this was caused by spiritual fire, then everything would be explained.

But Chen Xiao felt something was wrong.

"No, there are so many of them. Even if Chao Meng really wants to conquer the spiritual fire, it won't be possible for all of them to be buried here."

The boy from the Guo family has fire spiritual roots, and Chao Meng has the dual spiritual roots of wood and fire. If these two people fail to conquer and die, then Chen Xiao will have no choice but to admit it even if he is sad.

Cultivation as an immortal is inherently difficult, and no one can predict the dangers in the process. Even he himself doesn't know how long he can live.

But what about everyone else?
Why did they die together? Could it be that the spiritual fire was blowing with the wind and spreading to the crowd?

"But there are indeed no signs of fighting here, and the life cards of the young lady and the dead servant were broken at the same time. It is very likely that the fire really swept through them at the same time." The guard analyzed.

There is some truth to this statement.

Chen Xiao frowned and thought, but didn't find any other clues here.

He looked at the little cloth bag and said, "Let the Stealth Bees out and let them look for it again."

He couldn't accept the fact that his little sister was no longer a scumbag, and his mother definitely couldn't accept it either.

What if if we search again, we can find her bones?
"Yes."

The guard poured a few drops of spiritual honey into the cloth bag. After eating, the two invisible bees, who were already too tired to fly, flapped their wings energetically and started searching in the air.

First they were spinning around in place, as clueless as headless flies, but then the two flew in the same direction.

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Quickly, follow me!"

The hidden bee flew elsewhere. What does this mean?
It means that someone who was contaminated by the hidden scent has left here!
Who was the one who left?
Is it because the people in the little sister's team were not completely wiped out? Or is the murderer someone else?

Anyway, let’s catch up later.

……

Ning Zhishui walked into the village and soon met the villagers.

The villagers were very wary when they saw strangers, but probably because of Ning Zhishui's appearance, it was easy for people to let go of their guard. After a while, the uncle started laughing and chatting with her.
