call!
Li Qian let out a sigh and looked at the Yuan Stone in his palm, which had turned into useless powder. He raised his hand lightly and the powder drifted away with the night wind.

Looking up at the sky, it was pitch black. It was the darkest time before dawn.

He immediately flew towards the direction of the Divine Sword Gate.

When he was approaching the gate area of ​​the Divine Sword Sect, he suddenly saw a sneaky figure quickly coming out of the woods, then got on a fast horse and galloped away.

He appeared near the Divine Sword Sect at this time. I wonder if he is from the Divine Sword Sect?
However, one thing is certain, how could someone who enters and leaves the Divine Sword Gate in the middle of the night be a good person?
Li Qian watched the man leave and touched his chin thoughtfully. He did not follow him, nor did he choose to intercept him.

Because he was worried about alerting the enemy.

In the next few days, after Li Qian finished his training late at night, he would put on a black cloak and stroll around the area around the Divine Sword Gate.

As an inner disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, it is his responsibility to safeguard the security of the Divine Sword Sect.

Just when he was about to give up, someone finally showed up late that night.

This is definitely the same person I met before.

Came on horseback.

After tying up the horse, the masked man in black entered the woods and headed towards the Divine Sword Gate.

Li Qian followed from a distance.

He was wearing a black cloak to conceal his aura, and it was dark at night, so he could hide perfectly. With his level of cultivation and lightness skills, he had no pressure at all to follow.

Under a big tree, the man stopped.

After a long time, suddenly a sound of "bugebuge" was heard.

This person actually responded with a "bugebuge" sound.

"Good fellow, is there a traitor from the Divine Sword Sect behind this?"

Li Qian watched all this and thought to himself.

It is quite normal for a martial arts sect like the Divine Sword Sect to have several spies from other forces within its ranks.

After all, with the menial disciples and the inner sect, as well as the alchemy workshop, breeding farm, herb garden and other areas, the number of people must be tens of thousands.

It is normal to have some traitors.

Not long after, another figure came under the big tree.

The two stood together and didn't speak.

No, they should be communicating using secret telepathy.

This prevents your voice and the content of your conversation from being revealed.

Only innate warriors have the ability to use the art of transmitting secret sounds.

Li Qian frowned slightly. He couldn't hear the conversation between the two people, so there was no point in continuing to watch.

Immediately, he moved, floating down like a fallen leaf, and quietly came in front of the two people who were communicating in secret.

Seeing a man in a black cloak appearing like a ghost, the two were shocked. Almost in an instant, they attacked Li Qian without hesitation.

A man drew out his sword and thrust forward. The sharp sword light flashed like a poisonous snake.

The other person directly shot out a hidden weapon, a steel needle as thin as an ox hair shot out.

Li Qian just waved his hand, and all the needles were reflected onto the tree next to him like a cow's tongue rolling grass. He stretched out his hand to grab the sword light that was coming at him, and it was broken directly, so he grabbed the sword with his bare palm.

Then he shook his wrist and the opponent's sword slipped out of his hand.

The two men's eyes hidden behind their masks revealed fear and shock.

They turned and tried to flee.

But the next moment, the two men's bodies shook, and they became stiff and slow. Li Qian flew up, grabbed the back of their necks with one hand, and lifted them up.

Divine Sword Hall.

The lights are still on.

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu and several peak masters were discussing matters all night long.

"According to the news from our great-grandmaster uncle, the Empress Dowager has already planned to take action against the Luo Palace. Our Divine Sword Sect is within the Taixing Dao Kingdom, so we will definitely not be able to stay out of it."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu sighed and said.

The last time Yujing rebelled, the Divine Sword Sect suffered heavy losses.

If an attack is launched against Prince Luo's Mansion, the Divine Sword Sect will definitely get involved. It is unknown how great the losses will be by then.

"Master, if we can defeat Luo Wangfu, it will be extremely beneficial to the future development of our Divine Sword Sect."

Lingxu Peak Master Wei Quansheng said, "Without the Luo Palace, the royal family wants to strengthen their control over the Taixing Dao feudal state, and will definitely strongly support our Divine Sword Sect."

"That's not necessarily true. If I were the Grand Empress Dowager, I would weaken the local kings and martial arts sects while supporting new martial arts forces, thus creating a more balanced situation in the Taixing Dao Kingdom that is more conducive to the control of the royal family."

Guiyi Peak Master Hou Shuwen shook his head and said.

He knew that the Empress Dowager was extremely resourceful. After the Yujing Rebellion, she did not immediately take action against the rebel forces behind the scenes. Instead, she focused on appeasement and consolidating her power as the Emperor Wu, which showed some clues.

"Well, this is exactly what I'm worried about. My great-grandmaster has not been able to come back. On the surface, he is recovering from his injuries, but the Empress Dowager is taking this opportunity to strengthen her control over our Divine Sword Sect."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu sighed.

After all, the Empress Dowager was not the Emperor Wu of the Chai royal family, but just an acting Emperor Wu.

In the future, power must be returned to Prince Wu.

But the problem is, who knows how long it will take for Prince Wu to grow up?
During this period, in order to strengthen her authority as Emperor Wu, the Empress Dowager would inevitably liquidate the rebellious forces, and at the same time use both kindness and force to strengthen control over forces like the Divine Sword Sect.

"who?"

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the hall.

The next moment, Sect Master Feng Shaoyu and several Peak Masters reacted at the same time and quickly came to the outside of the Divine Sword Hall.

Suddenly, I saw two people lying in the square outside the temple.

"what happened?"

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu asked in a deep voice.

"Master, a black shadow just flew through the air quickly, and then two people fell down."

The person guarding the gate of the Divine Sword Hall is Lei Zhao, the direct disciple of the sect leader Feng Shaoyu.

"Did you see who it was?"

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu asked.

"I didn't see it clearly, it was too fast, it was just like a black shadow."

Lei Zhao shook his head.

He was also very puzzled. He was an innate warrior, just a little bit away from the grandmaster level, but he didn't even catch anyone.

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu and several peak masters walked up to the two people in the square.

They were all dressed in night clothes and had their faces covered.

He was not dead, but his acupoints were sealed and he could not move.

"Pull the masks off for both of you."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu ordered.

"Yes, Master."

Lei Zhao hurried forward and took off the masks of the two people on the ground.

One person is very strange.

The other person surprised Lei Zhao, "Elder Yuan?"

This person is an elder of the Divine Sword Sect.

Elder Yuan looked ashen and closed his eyes.

Although he didn't know who had captured him, and now he was thrown in front of the gate of the Divine Sword Hall, with the sect master and several peak masters right in front of him, it was useless for him to hide his identity.

The other person also looked unhappy.

"Does our Divine Sword Sect have such a person?" Sect leader Feng Shaoyu glanced at Elder Yuan and the other person, seemed to understand something, and asked immediately.

"Master, I have basically seen all the warriors of the Divine Sword Sect who are above the Xiantian level, and this person does not exist."

Lei Zhao shook his head and said.

He had just detected the body of this person and found a faint fluctuation of innate true energy. He was definitely an innate warrior without a doubt.

"So this person is an outsider."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu nodded, pointed his finger, and a stream of Qi shot out, unblocking Elder Yuan's mute point. "Elder Yuan, tell me, why did you meet this person so late at night?"

Elder Yuan didn't say anything.

"Thank you, Master Feng. Please send them to the punishment hall in person and interrogate them thoroughly."

Upon seeing this, Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu waved his hand.

Elder Yuan, who had been silent, turned pale.

Because he knew best what the punishment hall was.

"it is good."

Wu Qu Peak Master Xie Tiancheng nodded and immediately took the two of them to the punishment hall.

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu and several other peak masters returned to the hall and waited patiently.

In less than half an hour, Xie Tiancheng, the head of Wu Qu Peak, came back with a grim look on his face and a stack of papers in his hand, which contained all the information obtained from the interrogation.

After Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu and the others looked at them one by one, their expressions all became solemn.

"It seems that the Luo Palace has received the news in advance and is preparing to take the initiative and quickly take down our Divine Sword Sect. Then, under the pretext of clearing the emperor's side and pacifying the country, they will raise the banner of rebellion against the Empress Dowager."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu said in a deep voice.

"I didn't expect that Xuanming Sect and Zixiao Sect would completely turn to Luo Wang Mansion."

Wan Xiangu, the leader of Zidian Peak, frowned and said.

"It's normal for them to side with Luo Wangfu. They had no way out after the previous Yujing rebellion. But I don't know what the attitude of Baihua Palace is. If they also side with Luo Wangfu, then our Shenjian Sect will be in danger."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu shook his head and said.

"The Baihua Palace has always been neutral and should not side with the Luo Palace."

Hou Shuwen, the head of Guiyi Peak, analyzed, "From a geographical point of view, the location of our Divine Sword Sect controls the passage connecting the Kunwu Dao and Taixing Dao. The Night Palace that controls the Kunwu Dao is a descendant of Emperor Gaozu. In this rebellion in Yujing, the Night Palace clearly supported the royal family. If they want to deal with Luo Palace, the Night Palace army will definitely be the vanguard. So if Luo Palace wants to cut off the passage of the Night Palace army through Dakun Mountain in the future, it must first take down our Divine Sword Sect."

"What should we do? Should we quickly send a letter to our great-uncle Feiying for help?"

Xie Tiancheng, the master of Wu Qu Peak, said.

"Yujing is too far away. Even if our great-grandmaster rushes back to support us as soon as he gets the news, it will take at least ten days. Moreover, Yujing may not be able to send other support forces. I estimate that this rebellion is not just from Luo Wang Mansion, but also from other kings and martial arts forces. So, even if our great-grandmaster can rush back in time, he alone may not be able to withstand the attack from Luo Wang Mansion."

Hou Shuwen shook his head and said.

"Yes, fortunately we got the intelligence in advance, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous if we were caught off guard. In addition to sending a letter to Yujing Feiying, we also have to ask for help from the Night Palace."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu nodded, he knew the situation was urgent.

If they are not careful, the Divine Sword Sect might really be doomed.

"Who do you think will capture these two people?"

Wu Qu Peak Master Xie Tiancheng suddenly said.

"Yuan Han is already a master-level expert, and the man from Luo Wangfu is probably not much worse. Capturing these two people without hurting them is probably difficult even for me."

Hou Shuwen, the leader of Guiyi Peak, said in a deep voice.

He is the oldest among all the peak masters and has already reached the rank of top grandmaster. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one person in the Divine Sword Sect except Xiao Tianren.

With his strength, killing two masters was easy.

Even capturing them alive is no problem.

But it is difficult to capture it alive without any harm.

"Do you remember that my great-grandmaster once said that he met a mysterious master who possessed the sword power of the True Image level in our Divine Sword Sect?"

Hou Shuwen changed the subject and said.

Originally, he thought that Xiao Tianren must have seen it wrong. How could there be another celestial being hidden in the Divine Sword Sect?
There are only so many experts.

If there really is one, it would be impossible to hide the identity.

But now, the mysterious man captured these two alive for the Divine Sword Sect, revealing a conspiracy against the Divine Sword Sect in advance.

So that mysterious person must be from the Divine Sword Sect.

Otherwise it would be impossible to do so.

Why hide your identity?

Moreover, who is this person with such strong cultivation ability?

Several peak masters are here.

It is impossible for a sword master to be so powerful among the powerful elders.

Everyone present also found it difficult to understand.

"No matter who that mysterious man is, he has no hostility towards our Divine Sword Sect. He is even biased towards our Divine Sword Sect. Therefore, we must be fully prepared to deal with Luo Wangfu now."

Sect leader Feng Shaoyu said.

Everyone nodded, and then began to make arrangements to deal with the impending attack on Prince Luo's Mansion.

Li Qian did not stay in the Divine Sword Hall. He left his people behind and returned to the Chen Bell Tower.

When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and leaves, leaving no merit or fame.

He believed that the Divine Sword Sect had plenty of ways to make those two people speak.

After taking off his black cloak, Li Qian put it into the black iron ring, then sat cross-legged on the Chen bell platform, meditating and waiting for the arrival of the Mao hour.

In the next few days, the Divine Sword Sect made big moves.

The first thing was to order the inner disciples stationed in various places to go from being open to being secret and move closer to several important state and county-level stations.

The Divine Sword Sect also dispatched some elder-level masters to secretly enter these important outposts to strengthen the defense.

If Prince Luo's Mansion wants to deal with the Divine Sword Sect, it will definitely first eliminate the outposts outside.

Especially an important iron ore city like Xuanzhou Yecheng must not be abandoned.

Once the Luo Palace is occupied, it will be equivalent to mastering the source of fine iron, and can continuously create weapons and armor, and quickly expand the martial arts army.

Internally, the Divine Sword Sect also made important deployments. In order to prevent the enemy from infiltrating, inner sect disciples were assigned to patrol some of the hilltop areas surrounding the Divine Sword Sect.

In addition, the Divine Sword Sect began to recall some retired elders who still had combat capabilities.

Some martial arts families and forces established by successive inner disciples were also secretly mobilized. This is an extremely strong potential force.

The Divine Sword Sect has a very long history. Unless they are able to serve as elders or other positions in the Divine Sword Sect, many inner disciples will choose to return to their hometown to establish and manage family power after a certain period of time.

Martial arts forces that are closely connected with the Divine Sword Sect are everywhere within the Divine Sword Sect's sphere of influence.

This is also an important factor in the formation of the Divine Sword Sect's sphere of influence.

Li Qian naturally noticed such a big commotion.

It seems that he really caught a big fish before.

However, he still rang the bell every day to practice, as if he was unaware of the tense situation outside.

If a war really breaks out, the only thing he can do is to fight back against the enemy with his generals and block the water with his earth.

With his strength, he was confident that there shouldn't be any major problems unless a celestial being intervened.

Of course, if a celestial being really appeared, he would be better off putting away the Chen Zhong and running as far away as possible.

Where there is life, there is hope.

He could have waited until he became stronger before helping the Divine Sword Sect to avenge their hatred. There was no need for him to sacrifice himself in vain.

Of course, this is only possible in the worst case scenario.
