Chapter 171 The Killer Lost

To others, the moment the girl with twin ponytails opened the oilcloth, the man in black just stood there in a daze, not moving a muscle.

"Junior Sister Yan, how is it? Are you searching the soul? Have you seen who sent you?" asked the silver-haired man.

"Don't be impatient. He's a Jindan cultivator. He's not that easy to deal with. Let me play with him for a while longer." said the girl with twin ponytails.

She held the canvas, her eyes fixed, not knowing what she was doing.

"Stop playing around. We have to offer sacrifices to our ancestors tomorrow." The man in green holding the ruler said as he hit the killer in black again.

With a "puff", blood spurted from the mouth and nose of the killer in black, his bones were broken, and he fell to the ground, but still did not wake up.

"what are you doing?"

The man in green shirt also frowned slightly. "Let his soul out. We will know who sent him once we ask him."

"Okay, okay, this is really boring."

The girl with the twin ponytails rolled up the canvas. Suddenly, she cried out, "Oh no! Did you use too much force?"

"what happened?"

The girl with twin ponytails stuck out her tongue and said sheepishly: "He seems to be dead."

As everyone looked over, they saw that the killer in black had a dark look in his eyes and was breathing out more than in.

Everyone looked at the man in green.

The man in green shirt frowned and said, "I clearly controlled my strength well."

"You didn't send them, did you?" The silver-haired man chuckled. "If this plan fails, how about killing them to silence them?"

The man in green glanced at him calmly and said, "That's not necessary."

Zhong Sheng looked at the girl with twin ponytails and thought she was very suspicious. "This death is obviously a result of soul trauma. The descendant of Elder Zhou would not do such a dirty thing. But your Lu family has always been undisciplined. Did you send this person?"

The girl with twin ponytails glared at him, "How can you slander others like that? Are you dissatisfied? Do you want to challenge me?"

Zhong Sheng took out the metal ring and said, "I've never been afraid of anything. If you want to fight in advance, I'll accompany you."

Seeing that they were about to engage in battle, someone stepped forward to persuade them, "The killer is dead, let's hand him over to the elders. Besides, the vigil is not over yet, so it's not appropriate to fight now. We can talk about it during the day."

The girl with twin ponytails snorted coldly and put away the canvas.

Zhong Sheng also put away the metal ring and sat back in front of the campfire. The body of the Jindan killer lay on the grass, and no one even paid attention to it.

The rest of the disciples were silent.

……

It's a bit troublesome.
Looking at the body of the Jindan killer, Chen Lang was speechless.

Damn, who defined this thing as a trial?
He quietly retreated to a deserted place, took off the human skin mask and changed back to his original appearance. The killers were all dead, so there was no point in disguising his face.

In his plan, the killer had to help him solve at least one problem, and he would have to solve the rest on his own.

After all, to enter the Heavenly Ranking and leave your name on the ancestral monument, you only need to be ranked in the top ten, not first. This is not a difficult task.

But I didn't expect this guy to be so useless that he couldn't solve any problem.

But there is some good news. At least I don’t have to pay the balance.

"It seems that I have to use the Ten Thousand Souls Banner." Chen Lang thought, any few people who came out could take out a bunch of Jindan-level magic weapons, so there was no need for him to hold back.

Once the Ten Thousand Souls Banner is released, casualties are inevitable. Those ordinary disciples will probably be killed. But then again, if they can't get into the top ten and can't get on the Heavenly Ranking, what's the point of abiding by the rules?
Change of plans!

"At least I died early and wasn't discovered, so I still have a chance." Chen Lang thought to himself.

When the time comes, we will just defeat them one by one and kill a few families. As long as we are not banned, we still have a chance to be in the top ten.

If it doesn’t work, we’ll try again next year.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in my ears:

"I found you~"

Chen Lang raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head and saw that it was the girl with twin ponytails.

She had a ghostly smile on her face as she squatted next to Chen Lang. The bonfire was reflected on her face, half bright and half dark, with a clear dividing line at the bridge of her nose.

She leaned close to Chen Lang's ear and whispered, "The person you sent is a bit bad." "What? You like me?"

Chen Lang said: "I know I'm handsome, but you go to the side of the line, it's not your turn yet."

The girl with twin ponytails giggled and said in a sweet voice, "Look, I helped you cover up the secret. Can't I cut in line?"

Chen Lang looked at her for a moment. He noticed this person when the battle started, but he had never seen her before in the sect for so long.

"Chen Lang, you probably don't want this secret to be exposed, right?" She said in a low voice with her lips slightly curled.

Chen Lang looked at her for a long while.

"You are so rude."

Then he patted his butt, stood up from the grass, walked to the monks gathered around the campfire, and clapped his hands vigorously.

The monks all turned their eyes over.

Chen Lang said: "Everyone, how about the program I arranged?"

The monks were confused for a moment. What was the show? Was there anyone dancing?
“Oh my god.” The girl with twin ponytails stood there, stamping her feet and gritting her teeth. Was I being too sentimental?
Soon, they all reacted. After all, based on Chen Lang's reputation, what kind of show could there be?
"Did you arrange the person just now?" asked the silver-haired man.

"Correct."

Chen Lang saw that many of his disciples were getting agitated and angry, so he stretched out his hands to calm them down, "Quiet, it will be dawn soon, I am just here to cheer you up.

Also, I know some of you are frightened, but this is for your own good. The battlefield is ruthless. Once you leave the Tianjian Sect, people outside will not follow any rules. No one died today, but it may not be the case next time.

So this program is just to remind some of you that those who should leave should leave, and those who should give up should give up. Anyway, there are only ten positions on the Heavenly Ranking for ancestor worship, and everyone has their own position. They have golden elixir instruments, do you have any?"

What he said was actually useful. Some of the disciples showed obvious intention to back out. They were also newcomers, and not all of them understood the nature of ancestor worship.

But when they saw the Jindan master's attack just now, who killed without hesitation, they were all frightened.

But, as I said, since you are already here, if you just go home without doing anything, how is that different from being a coward?

"Well said, why don't you leave?" Someone asked, "If we leave, will we leave the opportunity for you?"

Chen Lang sighed in disappointment, "You guys are not leaving. I can only tell you one thing. When I take action tomorrow, life or death is unpredictable. You better be prepared."

"You are very arrogant." The silver-haired man held a Zen stick, "Because of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner? Remember what you said now, I will meet you tomorrow."

What kind of occasion is this? It's really bold to arrange for a killer to come.

"I'm sorry, the elder doesn't allow me to use it, saying that he is afraid that I might accidentally kill you all." Chen Lang expressed his regret.

"Don't say anything useless, they are all excuses. Let me ask you one thing, do you dare to accept the challenge?" asked the silver-haired man.

"Okay, I'll keep you company."

Chen Lang bowed and smiled, then returned to his original position.

"What did you want to say?" he asked.

“……”The girl with twin ponytails was completely convinced. She even wanted to use this as a threat to make Chen Lang her younger brother.

These people are stupid. I wonder if Chen Lang is trying to divert the topic? Such a big thing was fooled by him.

"However, you are very brave to play like this. You are more interesting than I heard before." She suddenly laughed, her voice very low:
"Then let's change the way we do it. How about we work together?"

"Why should I cooperate with you?"

She replied: "Because I don't have a little brother, but they do, and that's not fair to me."

"What does that have to do with me?"

"So I want to clean up all their minions, so that everyone will be fair." She said, "And don't you want to drive away those with low cultivation? This will make it easier for you to use the Ten Thousand Souls Banner."

"Are you okay?" Chen Lang glanced at her.

"I want to ask you too." She also stared at Chen Lang.

Chen Lang thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
