"Yes, this is the situation, Master!"
The tall young man was shocked when he heard this.
"So it was you who did it in secret. What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Zhang? Has our clan treated you two unfairly?"
Tingshan took a step forward, and an extremely angry expression also appeared on his face.
Both sides agreed to fight in the martial arts arena to decide the winner, but Zhang Ming secretly attacked Wustu.
Li Yan was still sitting there, but he had a strange expression on his face.
"I didn't attack Fellow Daoist Wusitu. I just made a guess based on the symptoms described by this disciple!"
"Then why are you so accurate and say it wasn't you who did it? Yesterday, two foreign cultivators from your clan came to our clan. Fellow Daoist Zhang, won't you give me an explanation?"
Tingshan's aura was growing, and he had already firmly locked onto Li Yan and the other two! !
For a moment, the entire martial arts arena fell silent, and most people's eyes were filled with anger.
At the same time, some people looked at Aguxi and the other two with hostility. After all, Wusitu had been an elder in the tribe for hundreds of years and had many direct descendants.
"The poison that Brother Wusitu was poisoned with does seem to have been planted by me, but I only planted it in the courtyard where I stayed. I think you can all understand this."
Li Yan spoke calmly.
As soon as he said this, there was a loud buzz below. They were all cultivators, and they instantly understood the meaning of Li Yan's words.
Even when monks are practicing in their own secret rooms, they will set up a series of defensive prohibitions. It would be strange if they did not take precautions when they came to an unfamiliar place.
"Can anyone prove that you didn't leave the room?"
When Wusitu's disciples saw Li Yan admit that he was the one who poisoned them, they became furious.
Originally, as a mere foundation-building cultivator, he would definitely not dare to do so, but in front of so many clansmen, how could he be afraid
Li Yan glanced at the man, and the tall young man felt that the other's eyes were like an endless cold pool.
With just that one glance at himself, the magic power in his body stopped working in an instant and his whole body stiffened until Li Yan looked away the next moment.
"We are outsiders. Whether we have to leave where we live or not, I think Chief Lai Ting should know this best.
What's more, I just want to launch a sneak attack on Fellow Daoist Wustu, where is his cave
Is it so easy to enter the place where a Jindan cultivator lives all year round? The defensive measures are not set up casually. You think too highly of Zhang!"
As soon as Li Yan finished speaking, Ting Bixiao's voice was heard.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang did not leave the courtyard where they lived last night. There is no need to repeat this!"
As soon as he said this, all the discussions were immediately suppressed.
There were some things that Ting Bixiao could not say openly, of course. With two Jindan cultivators coming to the clan, it was impossible to say that he was not on guard at all.
But as long as Li Yan and Zhao Min's auras remain in the courtyard where they live, they will not care what the other party is doing.
After Ting Bixiao said this, the discussions below became louder and there was a lot of noise and confusion.
The tall young man's face also turned embarrassed. This was undoubtedly saying that his master had secretly broken into the other party's residence last night.
Before he came, Ustu, who was already very weak, told him that either the patriarch was secretly taking action to completely eliminate those who were dissatisfied.
But since the other party did not let him die immediately, he wanted his disciples to clarify the matter in front of all the tribesmen. This was his last hope.
In addition, Ustu also said that it might be the two foreign monks who secretly acted, but he did not tell the tall young man that he had gone to inquire about the other party's information yesterday.
It was only after he came back that he discovered that his magic power began to disappear, and he couldn't be sure when he was ambushed.
Overall, he felt that it was more likely that Ting Bixiao would take action, and that it was more of a warning to him.
“It turns out that Elder Wusitu went to where the people lived and got possessed!”
"Didn't we agree to fight today? Why is Elder Wu Si going to someone else's courtyard?"
“There are actually poison cultivators among the outsiders. Elder Wusitu himself is also cultivating Yin Qi containing corpse poison. Many poisons have no effect on him. How could he be poisoned so easily?”
"I don't believe it. This is a frame-up..."
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion below.
Aguxi and the other two in the corner were still feeling nervous as they were stared at fiercely by so many tribesmen.
They felt that if Zhang Ming had really poisoned them secretly, they would definitely not be able to stay in the Giant Tree Clan any longer. Only now did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Ting Bixiao's voice was low, but it echoed in everyone's ears like a thunderclap, making the faces of those around him pale. The entire martial arts arena suddenly became silent.
“Fellow Daoist Zhang, I never realized that you are also an awesome poison practitioner, and your poisoning methods were so undetectable that even Wusitu could not detect them.
He was wrong to trespass into your residence, and it was also a disrespect to my Giant Tree Clan. However, since you did not kill him immediately, it should only be a warning, am I right? "
Ting Bixiao looked at Li Yan with some embarrassment. If this matter were to get out, anyone who came to visit the Giant Tree Tribe in the future would have to be on guard against them.
"Fellow Daoist Ting, I reiterate that I am not targeting anyone intentionally. I just set up some defenses out of habit.
This is the antidote. After taking it, Fellow Daoist Wusitu will wake up. After that, he will need to meditate for a while before he can fully recover."
Li Yan showed helplessness on his face, as if he really didn't know. Zhao Min even wanted to laugh in her heart.
This junior fellow of mine is evil to the core, yet he still makes it impossible for others to suspect him.
Then, Li Yan ejected a pill and flew it towards the tall young man.
After the tall young man grabbed the pill, he said nothing more. He quickly bowed to Li Yan and Ting Bixiao, then flew away in a hurry.
“Fellow Daoist Zhang is indeed straightforward. In this case, Wusitu has already lost this battle, and there is no need to wait for him to recover before fighting again.
This can be regarded as a punishment for trespassing into the Taoist's residence without permission, and this is enough to prove that Taoist Zhang is more skilled in the use of poison. " Ting Bixiao immediately spoke in a deep voice, and his voice once again spread throughout the martial arts competition field, which made many people look extremely disappointed.
Being fortunate enough to see Jindan monks fighting is something that can only be encountered once in a while.
Now the clan leader's words determined the result. Ting Bixiao made the conclusion without even waiting to see how Ustu fared after being detoxified. This gave others a feeling of being very decisive.
In fact, this is just the feeling on the surface. Since Ustu acted recklessly, the Giant Tree Clan lost face.
Ting Bixiao is now taking this opportunity to suppress Wusutu. By simply giving up his quota, his lineage will have one or two fewer fast-growing younger disciples.
Secondly, he wanted Zhang Ming to accept his favor. As for waiting for Wusutu's detoxification to see the results, it was totally unnecessary and would only make him lose face.
Li Yan and the other person are still in the Giant Tree Clan. If there is something wrong with the detoxification pill, can he escape
Li Yan just smiled and nodded.
"But I still want to learn from the two Taoist friends' methods!!"
Tingshan on the side suddenly said.
At this time, Ting Bixiao's voice had already sounded in Li Yan and Zhao Min's hearts.
"In order to give an explanation to the tribe members, the duel must be completed. Tingshan always likes to fight with others. If you two can let him see what a strong person is, that would be what he wants.
It would be better to control his temper, so that he won't go to other tribes to cause trouble all day long. But please rest assured, fellow Taoists, there will be no problem with the quota in Tingshan."
The meaning of Ting Bixiao's words was very clear. Li Yan and his team would definitely get the remaining spot. This told them that even if Ting Shan could win, he would "lose" the fight.
“Oh, he is very confident in Tingshan when he goes on stage!”
Li Yan thought in his heart.
When the giant tree tribe members below heard Tingshan asking to continue the fight, they couldn't help but shout one by one.
"Elder Tingshan, teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful the strong men of our Giant Wood Clan are!"
"Elder, you must be careful, the other party is a poison cultivator..."
"You don't even need to tell me that. Now everyone knows his trump card..."
"So what if he's a poison cultivator? Aren't there enough poisonous monsters in our Que Ling Pagoda? Wood attribute spiritual power has the strongest anti-poison effect. Elder Wusitu should just be careless..."
Various sounds below surged up like waves again, among which the loudest voices were from many monks of the Ustu lineage.
Li Yan made them lose face in front of the rest of the clansmen, and they would not give Li Yan any face.
So what if I provoke a Jindan? Now I am in my own clan. I don't think that after hearing these words, the other party will really lose face and attack some younger generations.
Amidst these discussions, Tingshan stood up and looked across.
Li Yan had no intention of standing up and seemed to be oblivious to the discussions around him.
Just as the members of the Giant Wood Clan below felt that this cultivator was so arrogant and were about to laugh at him, Zhao Min on the side slowly stood up.
"Friend Ting, please!"
At this moment, except for Ting Bixiao and Ting Shan who did not show any surprise, the surrounding members of the Giant Tree Clan were in an uproar again.
"It turned out to be that female cultivator who went to fight!!"
"As a man, why do you let a female cultivator fight in the first match?"
Although these Giant Tree Clan members knew that Li Yan and Zhao Min were both Jindan-stage cultivators, not many people knew their specific realms.
Some people still guessed that this female Jindan should be stronger, but they still echoed the people around them and ridiculed Li Yan.
"Okay, let me see the celestial magic of the human cultivators!"
As Tingshan was speaking, he flew up and instantly arrived at the martial arts arena below.
For him, of course it would be more satisfying to fight with a strong man.
Zhang Ming and the female cultivator named Zhao are from the same sect. This female cultivator is most likely also a poison cultivator. But as those people around him said, wood-attributed spiritual power is the best spiritual power for refining pills and healing.
With his level of cultivation, he is no longer afraid of most poisons, of course, provided he is prepared.
The martial arts arena is ten miles long and wide. In fact, this kind of arena is far from enough for Foundation Establishment cultivators to fight.
Generally, the martial arts arenas of sects and immortal cultivation families are basically used for Qi Condensation disciples to fight.
For a cultivator in the Qi Condensation Stage, there are only two meanings.
One means that this is a fair fight.
The second type is a life-and-death fight. The protective formation of the entire arena is activated, and the cultivators are trapped inside to fight until one side dies. This is enough for Qi Condensation cultivators.
With the level of cultivation of Tingshan and Zhao Min, they will soon fight in the air, which is their main battlefield. The martial arts arena is more like a symbol.
Zhao Min's body blurred, and when she reappeared, she was standing in the martial arts arena.
They were about a hundred feet away from Tingshan, which was the best distance for physical cultivators to launch an attack. The two of them were facing each other from a distance.
After Tingshan stood still, his aura continued to rise. When Zhao Min just landed in the martial arts arena and looked at him, he immediately moved, not giving the other party time to build up momentum.
It's clear at first glance that Tingshan is very experienced in fighting.
Tingshan stomped his foot on the ground fiercely, and his whole body flew into the air, as if he was running. A gust of wind blew up, leaving a long afterimage of his body in the air.
A green light appeared outside his body. One of his hands was clenched into a phoenix-eye fist, with his index finger arched upward and the knuckles protruding, and his arm was half-bent to gather strength.
He arrived in front of Zhao Min in an instant. He determined that Zhao Min and Li Yan were from the same sect and must be poison practitioners.
Therefore, he did not intend to give the other party too much time to poison. He wrapped his hand with spiritual power and punched Zhao Min's neck!
