The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 50: The Bloody Stone That Terrified Zhou Qing

Chapter 50: Chapter 50: The Bloody Stone That Terrified Zhou Qing

Soon after, all the True Disciples who had gone out to investigate returned and pointed out the location.

"Let’s go, there’s still important business to attend to!" Yan Xiaohu called out.

Then everyone headed towards the western mountains.

Along the way, they followed the traces left by the Cangyan Daoist Palace, and lit bonfires at night to rest.

Until two days later, they completely lost the traces once left by the Cangyan Daoist Palace.

"Senior Brother, we found a cave ahead, it seems there were signs of a fight!"

A True Disciple who had gone out to scout hastily sent back the message.

Everyone immediately stood up.

Soon, a half-collapsed cave appeared in front of them.

At the entrance, vines grew rampantly, intertwining with each other. Sunlight pierced through the overlapping branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground, adding a touch of tranquility and eeriness to the cave.

"Look over there——"

Lu Yaoyao pointed to the surroundings of the cave walls. Only then did everyone notice that the walls were covered with knife marks of varying depths, and the ground was littered with rubble.

Obviously, a fierce battle had taken place here.

Li Daoxuan stepped forward at this moment, bent down, and took a careful look.

"These marks seem quite old, not from a recent fight!"

After saying this, he stood up and looked at the dark cave in front of him. A powerful Divine Sense suddenly scanned inside.

It quickly withdrew.

"Everyone, don’t worry. There’s no one inside, and the cave seems to have been abandoned for a long time!" Li Daoxuan said.

Hearing this, everyone relaxed their guards.

"I’ll take a look inside." Yan Xiaohu took the lead and entered the cave, followed closely by Zhou Qing.

The entire cave looked very damp, and it was filled with more alarming marks.

It seemed that the fight here back then was very intense.

Yan Xiaohu cleared the webs in front of him with his long sword, disappointed: "I was thinking of using this as our campsite tonight, but it seems that’s not possible."

Zhou Qing looked around and quickly noticed something strange among the scattered stones.

He then crouched down and gently wiped away some moss.

A faint fragrance filled his nose. At some point, Lu Yaoyao had come to his side, examining closely.

"It’s blood, and it’s already dried and blackened, almost unnoticeable. It seems Senior Brother was right; the battle here happened a long time ago and should have nothing to do with the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect and others."

Lu Yaoyao said seriously.

Li Daoxuan stood behind Lu Yaoyao with a proud expression: "Of course, I have some experience in this matter."

"That’s right, and look at who the chief of Divine Peak is. Senior Brother Li, this time we’re counting on you." Yan Xiaohu flattered him. After all, pleasing this free muscle would save them a lot of effort.

Zhou Qing, on the other hand, pondered for a moment. He thought he might as well make use of the time, as he didn’t want it to go to waste.

With a thought, the information on the stone was revealed.

[Blood-stained Stone: This is an ordinary stone that gained some spirituality due to the blood spilled on it when Gao Xuan, the Peak Master of Taiqing Sect, fell, but its overall value is negligible.]

When he saw the words clearly, Zhou Qing was stunned.

He quickly and carefully read it again, full of doubt.

"Gao Xuan? Isn’t he the Peak Master of Golden Sun Peak?"

Zhou Qing frowned, seemingly not understanding the information.

All thirteen Peak Masters of the Taiqing Sect were alive and well. Just a while back, when Lu Yaoyao took a master, he attended with all the Core Disciples to congratulate her.

But here it mentions the blood spilled when Gao Xuan fell...

As soon as this thought crossed Zhou Qing’s mind, his pupils contracted, and his heart skipped a beat.

He read it once again.

Feeling a dry throat and parched lips.

Peak Master Gao Xuan fell?

Then who is it currently staying at Taiqing Sect?

How long has he been here?

What is his purpose?

Oh god, last time he and his Third Senior Brother met him, he was so amiable.

Now thinking back, it gave him chills.

All this time, no one discovered his true identity. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Let’s go, don’t just stand there!"

The next moment, Yan Xiaohu patted Zhou Qing’s shoulder, waking him from his daze.

When he came to his senses, he realized everyone had exited the cave, preparing to search for a campsite for the night.

Zhou Qing felt his heart pounding, sensing a huge conspiracy hidden in Taiqing Sect.

But how should he tell others?

Should he just smell it like with the Spiritual Turtle Liquid?

Who would believe that?

It might even alert the enemy and get himself killed first.

Stay calm, you must stay calm.

Zhou Qing quickly thought it over, deciding not to tell anyone about this for the time being.

Then he quickly opened his personal panel.

[Name: Zhou Qing]

[Age: Nineteen]

[Cultivation: Late Foundation Establishment]

[Cultivation Technique: Taiqing Profound Qi Skills]

[Talent Skills: Daily Reflection,

Heart Mirror Vision—LV2 (139/200),

Lowering Presence—LV3 (3/100)]

[Skill Fragment: 0/3 (Not obtainable)]

The Talent Skill [Heart Mirror Vision] would soon level up to three, allowing for more bindings then.

If all else failed, leave one for Master Gao Xuan to probe.

"Watch your step, why do you look so lost, what are you thinking about?"

Yan Xiaohu suddenly shouted, snapping Zhou Qing out of his thoughts, nearly tripping over a stone in front of him.

Zhou Qing quickly replied: "Nothing, just wondering where those from the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect went."

Yan Xiaohu laughed: "It’s hard to find them, let’s take it one step at a time. Maybe disciples from other peaks have already found them by now."

Li Daoxuan took out a token to inquire, then shook his head.

"None of the peaks have had any findings so far, but the sect has sent a secret order, instructing everyone to be wary of people from Cangyan Daoist Palace. If anyone finds clues about them, they must share it with each other!"

After Li Daoxuan spoke, he subconsciously looked at Zhou Qing.

It seemed his discovery of the Spiritual Turtle Liquid on the jade pendant Yin Xiao gave to Cui Yingying was highly valued by the sect.

The person hadn’t been found yet, but this fellow had already earned some credit unwittingly.

[Heart Mirror Points +5]

As the notification sound went off, Zhou Qing turned around to see the label above Li Daoxuan’s head changing from [Lecher with a Keen Nose] to [Evolved Lecher with a Keen Nose] at a visibly rapid pace.

Heh——

Thank you for your latest acknowledgment of me!

That night, instead of moving on, they found a sheltered location to set up camp.

After setting up the tent, Lu Yaoyao saw that Zhou Qing was still looking depressed. She thought for a moment, then walked over to him.

"Senior Brother Zhou, what’s wrong with you? Do you have something on your mind? If you trust me, you can tell me, and I’ll help you analyze it!" Lu Yaoyao said softly.

Zhou Qing shook his head: "I don’t trust you."

Lu Yaoyao: "..."

Seeing the little junior sister being rebuffed, Li Daoxuan sighed.

I just don’t get it, what are you after?

If you are after others, this guy is just a peeping tom turned bad with his own senior, not worth it.

And you even paired him with Immortal Xuan You forcibly.

If you’re after nothing, then why do you always seek him out, only to be met with impatience.

Now that you’ve reached Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, your potential is limitless. At this stage, you should stay away from such people and quickly find your own circle.

Just as Li Daoxuan was about to step forward and lead the ignored junior sister back on the right path, he suddenly looked up into the distant night, swiftly stepped forward, and extinguished all the fires.

Before everyone could react, Li Daoxuan immediately stood in front of Lu Yaoyao, his face serious.

"Hush, someone is here!"

Everyone immediately hid in the surrounding dense forest, cautiously vigilant.
