For the past six months, everything has been going well.

Not only have all the materials for the weapon refining been found, but the body refining has also been very effective. The training of Thunder Transformation has been advanced to the fifth level, and the Water Condensation Technique has also reached a small success.

The only thing that was not satisfactory was the practice of Qianyuan Zhoutian Sword Technique.

During this period, in addition to the fixed monthly body training, Ye Pianran would spend an hour every day to understand the Qianyuan Zhoutian Sword Art, but the result was little effect.

In fact, she already felt that she was about to touch the threshold of the sword technique, but she was still unable to go any further, as if there was a layer of gauze in the middle.

If you want to break through this veil and get a glimpse of his true face in Lushan, you probably need an opportunity.

Even so, she actually didn't feel worried or anxious.

As early as the very beginning, both Senior Brother Song Ye and Master had clearly reminded her of the difficulty of the Qianyuan Zhoutian Sword Technique, so she was well prepared for it.

It would be better to say that such progress in just six months was beyond her expectation.

Therefore, it cannot be considered unsatisfactory.

On this day, Ye Pianran had just withdrawn from studying the Qianyuan Zhoutian Sword Art when he received a long-awaited message.

She simply tidied herself up, then left the cave, got on the shuttle, and headed towards Qi Peak.

……

Six months is neither long nor short.

The shortcoming is that it cannot comprehend a technique, but the longing is that it can cause many changes.

Everything is calm here at Ye Pianran, but there are undercurrents in other places, such as the Outer Gate Green Scorpion Peak.

Just like the direct branches of the Ye family all live in Mianxiu Peak, Green Scorpion Peak is the base of the Chen family in Huixing City.

The Chen family is not as big as the Ye family. It is just a small family. It is considered good if more than a dozen clan members join the Tianheng Sect every ten years. Naturally, there is no distinction between direct descendants and concubines.

They deliberately chose their residences together, and even though there were gaps between them, they generally formed a settlement.

Most of the time, this area, which is mostly composed of Chen family disciples, is very lively. You can often see some disciples with similar looks gathering together, exchanging ideas, or laughing and playing.

But now, the situation is completely different.

An outer disciple who lived in this area had finished his retreat and was about to go out for a walk. He passed by a place where the Chen family's disciples often gathered. When he looked around, he let out a surprised sigh.

This road is the only way for him to leave Green Scorpion Peak. He has walked it countless times since he started. Miraculously, nearly half of the time, he can see several Chen family children here.

Although the probability of encountering someone by chance is not particularly high, over time, it has gradually become a little bit of fun for him when he is on the road.

He was a little surprised that he didn't see anyone today, but he didn't take it to heart. After looking away, he continued to do his own things.

However, something went wrong next.

This disciple has been in and out very frequently recently, more than ten times in a month, but he has never seen any of the Chen family members, not even one.

At first, he didn't take it seriously, but as time passed, he began to feel uneasy.

The Chen family hasn't shown up for so long. Could it be that something happened?

Could it be that they all went into seclusion or went out to do tasks?

He comforted himself in this way, and his doubts were slightly reduced, but they soon came up again. Although he didn't know many of the Chen family's children, he was familiar with them because they lived in the same area. In addition, they were all related by blood, so it was easy to tell from their appearance.

The monk's eyesight is very good, and it is rare for him to identify the wrong person. Recently, this disciple was also convinced that what he saw was correct.

Even if they are really in retreat or doing tasks, what is the probability that they will all disappear together?

Thinking of this, he only felt a cold air rising from his back, and then he couldn't hold it back anymore, so he changed his route to talk to his friends.

After understanding the situation, my friend also felt that the matter was a bit strange. After much discussion, the two decided to go to the sect elder together.

They were not too worried about the personal safety of the Chen family's children. After all, not many people would care so much about the life and death of others, even their fellow sect members.

The problem is that they don't know how serious this matter is. If it is really serious, and they clearly noticed the abnormality but did not report it, causing something to be delayed, they always feel that they will have a bad conscience.

It is very important for a monk to have clear thoughts, otherwise it will be regrettable if he develops inner demons later on.

After the elders of the sect learned about this, they first sent a group of disciples to keep an eye on the area where the Chen family's children lived. After three days, they still didn't see anyone, so they used special means to scan every courtyard.

The conclusion is that there really is no one.

All the Chen family disciples in Green Scorpion Peak, more than fifty people in total, are all gone!

The elder who took over the matter realized the seriousness of the matter and used his authority to check the list of people from the Chen family in Huixing City and confirm them one by one.

The Chen family has no direct disciples. There are only two clan members in the inner sect. They left the sect together six months ago to practice and have not returned yet.

At the outer sect, in addition to Green Scorpion Peak, there are three other members of the Chen family serving as deacons, and they all took leave half a year ago.

At this point, only the last member of the Chen family is left in the sect.

This person's name is Chen Susu, a female cultivator at the seventh level of Qi training. She started practicing five years ago, but for some reason she does not live in Green Scorpion Peak, but in a mountain with poor spiritual energy.

Fortunately, Chen Susu was not missing and went to Fangshi yesterday. She seemed to know nothing about the disappearance of the Chen family.

The elder who investigated the matter sent someone to negotiate with Chen Susu and contacted the senior sect to report the situation.

It didn't take long for Chen Susu to make progress.

It turns out that she is not a bloodline of the Chen family, but the adopted daughter of the Chen family, and she has no deep relationship with the children of the same clan.

After joining the clan, she did not choose to live with the Chen family. Instead, she found another place to live alone, and had almost no contact with them.

When Chen Susu was saying this, in a secret room in the outer law enforcement hall, several elders with deep auras were watching the video of their conversation simultaneously.

"This woman didn't lie."

The speaker was Elder Jin from the Law Enforcement Hall, who was also one of the witnesses in Ye Xiyue's case.

"It seems that there is no breakthrough in her." Elder Sui, who followed the whole process, shook his head. "I'm afraid I have to go to Huixing City to find out the truth of the matter."

"Is it enough for you alone?" Another majestic old man pondered, his eyes falling to his side, "I have a feeling that this matter is not that simple. Lao Xu, you go with Lao Sui to avoid any accidents. There is someone taking care of you.”

The elder known as Lao Xu had a serious look. If Ye Pianran were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this elder was the one responsible for executing the execution at that time.

Not only that, among the five elders present, three of them she had met before were all leaders of the outer sect, which showed that the sect attached great importance to this matter.

"Okay." Old Xu nodded and made the final decision.
