Chapter 236 There is a spy among the descendants
A burst of unbridled laughter came, and Li Nian looked up in annoyance, and was immediately stunned. She rubbed her eyes, thinking she had seen it wrongly.
Baiji: “…”
The smile on his face disappeared immediately, his lips were pursed, and his body leaning against the door stood up straight.
"Oh, isn't this my brother who has lost all hope? I'm so relieved to see that you can still smile." Li Nian tilted his head and said
Bai Ji's mouth twitched, and after staring at Li Nian for a moment, he covered his forehead and said in a low voice:
"My chest hurts, help me back quickly."
Li Nian raised his eyebrows and pointed out his mistake without hesitation, "Brother, why are you holding your forehead with your hands when your heart hurts?"
"Could it be that the meridians are broken and the brain is damaged?"
"........."
"Li Nian!" Bai Ji's face was tense, his beautiful eyebrows were squeezed into a ball, and he spoke angrily.
The two senior brothers and sisters were staring at each other when a white figure emerged from the inner room. A smile appeared on his cold face. "Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't quarrel for a day?"
Li Nian snorted, turned away, and smiled at Yue Jian obediently, "Senior Sister, no, it wasn't. It was my senior brother who started the fight first."
Bai Ji choked slightly, his handsome face still pale. He coughed softly twice and glanced at Yue Jian. "Senior Sister, I'm a little weak. Could you please help me in?"
As he spoke, his tall and straight figure staggered slightly, half bent over, as if he was in real pain.
The senior sister, who had been calm at first, suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ji, reached out to support him, and the two of them walked into the house, leaning against each other.
Li Nian: “…”
What a green tea guy.
Li Nian walked into the house with extremely complicated feelings, sat down opposite Bai Ji, reached out and grabbed the teacup in front of him, and drank it in one gulp.
“…Senior Sister, please take care of her. She gives me a headache.”
Bai Ji's face changed, and he turned around and complained to Yue Jian skillfully, his voice sounding very aggrieved.
Li Nian was itching to punch Bai Ji in the face. She twitched her lips and said, "Brother, that's enough. Otherwise, I'll always want to hit you in the face."
Yue Jian pursed her lips, lowered her head and suppressed a smile. She patted the back of Bai Ji's hand and said softly, "You were always worried when she was away. Isn't it great that she's back now?"
Bai Ji raised her beautiful peach blossom eyes slightly, glanced at Li Nian with disdain, turned her head away arrogantly, and snorted coldly.
Li Nian didn't want to pay attention to him. He gulped down another glass of water and turned to business. "Brother, I have found the ingredients for the Bone Tempering Pill. I estimate it will be ready in two days."
After a few seconds of silence, Bai Ji suddenly smiled, his voice still joking, "Okay, I understand."
Li Nian heard the light tone, looked at his expression again, sighed in his heart, and advised
"Brother, I went through so much trouble to find these materials. Don't try to fool me. Otherwise, you'd better sleep with your eyes open every day."
Bai Ji was slightly stunned, and a bitter smile appeared on his face, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I'm not that bad."
He also knew about the Zixiao Bone Tempering Pill. The three ingredients in it were very difficult to find, especially the thousand-year-old dragon bone. He would not let this person down no matter what.
His eyes moved slightly, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he was about to say something.
Li Nian spoke first, "No need to thank me, there's no need for thanking me between us."
The young man was startled, a faint smile appeared on his face, but he didn't say anything else.
"Senior Sister, is there anything unusual with the people around you? The news that I went to Luoshui City earlier has been leaked."
Upon hearing this, Yue Jian frowned slightly and replied solemnly, "I have suppressed the news of your departure, but only a few people knew about it. Besides, these people are all my direct disciples."
Li Nian's heart skipped a beat. If it was a direct disciple, it would be difficult to investigate. Direct disciples had a very high status and were in charge of the sect's affairs.
It’s not something that can be checked just by looking.
Bai Ji's expression also became serious. If there was a spy among his disciples, it would be a serious matter.
"Junior Sister, how did you know that your information was leaked?" he asked
Li Nian held his chin in his hand. "I was targeted by spiritual attacks before I even set foot in Luoshui City. Even Senior Brother Lu Xiao only learned of my whereabouts later. So how did the demons know?"
Yue Jian and Bai Ji looked at each other, and saw seriousness in each other's eyes. In fact, when they were in Wu Yue City, they vaguely sensed that there was a spy in the sect.
But they didn't expect that it would be among the direct disciples. There are 32 direct disciples in Tianyan Sect, and the scope of investigation is too large.
Li Nian lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Senior Sisters and Brothers, how are your relationships with these disciples?"
Yuejian: "Not bad."
Bai Ji stroked his chin and went over all his disciples in his mind one by one. "I have a close relationship with the chief disciples of each major peak, and the others will be just fine."
Li Nian blinked a few times and said, "Then I'll trouble you, brothers and sisters, to pay more attention to it on a daily basis. We can talk about it if there is really a problem."
Both of them nodded. This was the only way now. Hopefully, nothing would go wrong.
These two days, Li Nian stayed in Jiang Yuxia's yard. She was making elixirs in the alchemy room, and he was wandering around her yard alone.
She didn't really want to stay in Juyun Peak, but she didn't want to go out either. She just didn't expect that trouble would come to her in person.
Li Nian crossed his arms, looked at the person in front of him expressionlessly, and yawned, "Is there something wrong? If not, please get out of here."
After not seeing each other for a while, Chu Xu's cultivation had improved a lot, and she was actually about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. She looked at Li Nian with contempt, and a sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of her lips.
"It was you who broke into the palace and rescued Jun Yan that day, right?" she said with certainty.
Li Nian raised her eyebrows slightly. She was sure that her face was not seen by her, and she didn't know how she knew it, but she didn't care.
"Jun Yan? I don't know her." She only rescued Yaoyao that night, and Jun Yan had nothing to do with her, Li Nian.
Chu Xu's face was clearly filled with anger. She raised her voice a few notches, "Impossible! You were the one who rescued her. I could smell your lingering aura."
Li Nian blinked his eyes slightly and said "Oh" lightly.
Li Nian always knew how to make people angry. Chu Xu couldn't maintain the calmness on her face, and immediately slapped out with her palm. A huge amount of water vapor with a strong palm wind swept towards her.
Li Nian frowned, raised his hand and transformed it into spiritual power to block, and said coldly, "It seems that forty lashes are not enough for you to learn your lesson. You dare to act on your own."
"So what? It's not the first time." She said disdainfully
As he spoke, several sharp sword energies swept across his face, and the water blades that emerged pressed down like an overwhelming force.
Li Nian spun around to avoid it, stepping on the wind-stepping technique as light as the wind. With a slight movement of his fingertips, purple lightning shot out from the palm of his hand and touched the water blade.
