Let’s talk about Xiqi.

On top of the red sand formation.

Fairy Caiyun and Zhang Tianjun discussed the war the next day.

Zhang Tianjun asked: "There will be a battle tomorrow. Do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?"

These words were obviously asking Fairy Caiyun if she had any plans, but in fact they were asking her who was relying on her behind her.

After all, although Fairy Caiyun was "manipulating" Senior Brother Ji's treasured mirror in front of everyone today, she crossed two major levels and captured Lu Ya.

But is this really the case?

No, Zhang Tianjun doesn’t think so!

Unlike the immortals in Xiqi's Yuxu Palace, Zhang Tianjun witnessed his senior brother "Ji Xukong" die and then enter the coffin.

He didn't even see Senior Brother Ji's mirror.

So how did this mirror fall into the hands of Fairy Caiyun, and how could it exert power in her hands that was no less powerful than that of Brother Ji?

Zhang Tianjun boldly assumes...

That is...

Senior Brother Ji Xukong!

Not dead!

He knew that his conjecture was incredible.

After all, everyone saw the death of Senior Brother Ji Xukong with their own eyes.

And the body is still there.

But... it is true that senior brother's magic weapon fell into the hands of Fairy Caiyun for no reason, and it exploded with power that was no less powerful than when it was in senior brother's hands.

He also knew very well that it would be fine if Senior Brother Ji was dead.

But if Brother Ji is still alive, then the current situation between the two parties will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes.

Therefore, what Zhang Tianjun wants to make sure is...

Senior Brother Ji Xukong, is he dead?

Thinking of this, Zhang Tianjun turned his attention to Fairy Caiyun, hoping to hear the answer from her mouth.

"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me for not being able to answer this question."

Fairy Caiyun is a smart person. When she saw Zhang Tianjun's burning eyes, she knew what he really wanted to ask.

For a moment, she thought about confessing to Zhang Tianjun.

But in the end, I restrained this urge.

Because when he and Han Zhixian met his senior brother earlier, his senior brother told him not to reveal that he was still alive.

Fairy Caiyun thought, although she didn't know what her senior brother was planning.

But if he reveals the news that his senior is alive without his permission, even if it is revealed to Zhang Tianjun... it may affect his layout.

If that's the case, that would be a bit bad.

But she couldn't do such a thing as deceiving her classmates.

So she chose to remain silent.

But one thing that Fairy Caiyun overlooked is...

We are all old monsters who have lived for who knows how many years. Many times, we don’t need a clear answer from the other party on many issues. We can get a lot of information with just an attitude.

At this moment, that's it.

Zhang Tianjun already knew it in his heart.

He smiled calmly and then said: "Since it's inconvenient for you, fellow Taoist, I won't force it."

"But there's one thing I don't know about."

"oh?"

"Fellow Taoist, can you clarify my doubts?"

Fairy Caiyun chuckled: "If you have something to say, fellow Taoist, please speak out."

Zhang Tianjun smiled and said: "As far as Pindao knows, the treasure that fellow Taoist took from Lu Ya today is the treasure of senior brother Ji Xukong. I wonder where you got it?"

"this……"

Fairy Caiyun's face suddenly stiffened when she heard this.

Unexpectedly, this flaw was actually noticed.

She was silent for a while.

Zhang Tianjun asked: "Could it be that fellow Taoist borrowed something from senior brother?"

"Pindao..."

Fairy Caiyun hesitated to speak, seeming to be hesitating how to explain, or whether to confess to Zhang Tianjun, a fellow student.

After a moment, she sighed.

"That's all, since fellow Taoist has already suspected it, it's okay for Pindao to tell you..."

Just when she was about to blurt out the truth.

Suddenly, the space around the two people distorted.

A treasure mirror emitting endless divine light suddenly appeared beside the two of them.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man wearing a purple and gold mysterious robe walked in slowly.

He stood with his hands behind his back, and there was an unconcealable domineering energy about him.

Zhang Tianjun raised his eyes and looked up.

His pupils shrank suddenly!

This person...

No one else!

It was his dead senior brother, Ji Xukong!

Zhang Tianjun quickly stood up and saluted Ji Xukong: "Greetings to senior brother."

"Yes." Ji Xukong nodded in response, then turned to Fairy Caiyun and nodded, saying, "Thank you, Junior Sister."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Fairy Caiyun shook her head repeatedly and stepped aside respectfully.

Now that the senior brother has appeared, he must have his own plans, and the next thing can be left to the senior brother.

Ji Xukong turned around and looked at Zhang Tianjun, and asked calmly: "Junior brother, as you can see, Pindao is actually not dead."

Zhang Tianjun said: "Senior brother..."

"No need to say more."

Ji Xukong indifferently interrupted Zhang Tianjun's words.

He walked forward slowly, came to Zhang Tianjun, patted his shoulder, and then said: "Those who died in the camp because of the Seven Arrows Book of Nails were the clones created by poor Taoists, not the original deity."

"So that's it..."

Zhang Tianjun suddenly realized.

As expected of a senior fellow from the inner sect, he actually has such a method.

But soon, he thought of another thing.

That is, since nothing happened to senior brother, why should we watch the Luolu Formation and the Red Water Formation be broken, and Daoyou Yao and Daoyou Wang die?

Could it be that there is any secret in this?

He asked tentatively: "Senior brother, why do you want to watch the Luo Lu Formation and the Red Water Formation be broken?"

Ji Xukong said lightly: "I feel sorry for my two fellow Taoists, but I have my own considerations. For the greater benefit of our religion, I can only sacrifice these two fellow Taoists."

Regarding the deaths of Yao Tianjun and Wang Tianjun, Ji Xukong could not deny that this was indeed the result of his laissez-faire, otherwise he would have been able to save them if he had to.

However, just as he had originally thought, since Shi Tianjun went down the mountain in violation of Master's order, he would have to bear the corresponding consequences.

It might not be a bad thing to let them go to Shinto to practice.

Moreover, after resurrecting his life and coming to this world, he certainly has new ideals that he wants to achieve, but he does not regard it as his responsibility to save everyone.

Sometimes, in order to save more people, it is necessary to sacrifice some people - this is a great sacrifice and is valuable.

Zhang Tianjun was silent.

All this seemed to have exceeded his expectations.
