Outside the dungeon, the ten-sect competition is in full swing.

In the dungeon, Xue Ning relied on the black widow spiderlings to spy and collect intelligence about the outside world every day.

When Xue Ning first entered the liberal arts college, he deservedly ranked first in all competitions during his period.

Lurking, disguising, tracking, assassinating, and apprehending, Xue Ning's achievements at that time have still been surpassed by no one to this day.

He knew the behavior of Shuwenyuan's sword guards very well.

After sealing the mountain, they will inevitably search the inner gate first, and at the same time monitor the Feng family day and night, just waiting for him to appear.

For three days, Xiuwen Academy will search the inner door inch by inch. If nothing is found, then they will consider searching unconventional hiding places.

For example, the interior of Xiuwen Academy, the main peak, the Presbyterian Council, the Disciple Council, etc...

Xue Ning hid in the dungeon for three days, taking the time to recover from his injuries.

Although he desperately didn't want to have anything to do with the Black Sky Dog, he had to admit that the bloodline of the Black Sky Dog clan was really hard-working.

That day, he was beaten all the way down from Tianmu Peak. He was first injured by the sword guard, then received the fists and kicks of Fourth Master Feng, and finally was killed by Shen Jue's sword, which transformed the demon inside his body.

With internal and external injuries, an ordinary person would not be able to recover for ten days and a half.

But when it came to his body, most of the trauma was healed in just three days.

At midnight on the third day, Xue Ning deduced that the time was ripe, so he unlocked the seal of the cell, took several demon clansmen, avoided the guards of Xiuwen Academy, and escaped from the dungeon.

Firelight shines in the criss-crossing alleyways.

"The Flying Fox Guards go to the southeast, and the Qianlong Guards go to the northwest!"

"Yes!"

Xue Ning gestured behind him, and several monster clans followed his lead, hiding their auras and hiding in the passage obediently.

After avoiding these two waves of Sword Guards, Xue Ning sneaked into the Xiuwen Academy's warehouse and stole seven sets of Sword Guard disciple uniforms, leaving one set for himself and the remaining six sets for several "underlings".

"The Pope has entrusted me with other important tasks, so I can only send you here. Whether you can escape down the mountain while the Ten Sects are outnumbered depends entirely on your own abilities."

Niu Datou, who was the first to change his clothes, cupped his fists and said, "Young Master, I, Niu Datou, won't leave. I want to stay and help the young master do important things!"

Another chicken demon agreed: "Even my subordinates want to stay and help the young master. This Tianyuan Dao Sect is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. The young master is alone with no help in the front or rear. It is really too dangerous."

Another dog demon also said: "Since you all want to stay, I won't leave either!"

Xue Ning was stunned when he heard this, and an indescribable emotion surged in his chest.

Ever since he said goodbye to Pingxiu that night, he felt as if he had died once before, like a walking corpse, relying on the two unfinished things of "killing Qin Huaichu" and "saving his master's wife" to survive.

He never thought that in a desperate situation, he would meet such a group of "companions" who were willing to follow him and work hard.

Even though he had lied to all of this.

Although he is still using them now.

Xue Ning felt that their earnest glances were like knives, causing pain on his cheeks.

"I..." As soon as Xue Ning opened her mouth, her throat was choked and her voice was dry. "What I want to do is more convenient for one person. If there are more people, it will be easier to be exposed."

"You have escaped from the dungeon, and within half a day, the guards of Xiuwenyuan will find out. Now you run away and go down the mountain, and create more disturbances, which can help me divert the attention of the guards."

Niu Datou thought for a moment and said, "Well, since the young master wants us to help cover, we brothers will take the lead."

All the demons said in unison: "Young Master, please take care of yourself."

"You guys... take care of yourself too."

Xue Ning clasped his fists and stood for a long time in the direction where the demons left.

He looked at their bleak backs and suddenly felt ironic.

His fellow disciples were afraid of him and ostracized him; but the Blood Moon Demon, whom he had regarded as his enemy in the past, was willing to believe his lies and treated him with righteous indignation.

Xue Ning withdrew his gaze, strode away in the opposite direction, and never looked back.

He carefully avoided the patrolling sword guards, came to the Lingbo Pool in the Academy Square, and slipped into the water silently.

After swimming deep into the water for about half a cup of tea, I saw a cover made of condensed light blue water waves in front of me.

The water cover was shining brightly, and a water unicorn covered with ice-blue scales lay in it, sleeping peacefully.

Xue Ning waved his arms, struggled upstream, passed through the water cover, broke out of the water with a "crash", and landed next to the water unicorn.

Shui Qilin opened his eyes lazily, not seeming to be shocked by the young man's arrival.

When Xue Ning first came to Tianyuan Dao Sect when he was young, he was pushed into the Lingbo Pool by his senior fellow from the Sword Academy and almost drowned. Fortunately, he was saved by the water unicorn.

This water unicorn is a spiritual pet that has existed since the founding of Tianyuan Dao Sect. It is said that it has made great contributions to the founder of the sect and has a very respected status in the sect.

Now that I am getting older, I don't like to move around. I just play in the Lingbo Pool and sleep all day long.

Xue Ning is one of the few disciples in the Tianyuan Dao Sect who has the blue eyes of the water unicorn and can enter its underwater lair to play with it.

The water unicorn's big head lay on its two front paws, staring at Xue Ning, and spit out a string of bubbles.

It speaks in the ancient language of the Shui tribe, which not many people understand today.

Xue Ning studied in the academy for three years with the elders who were studying the history of the Middle Kingdom, but he could barely understand and communicate with Shui Qilin.

Shui Qilin said: "That day in front of Lingbo Pool, you were beaten by the sect leader. Why?"

After a while, when Xue Ning didn't answer, he added, "People from Xiuwen Academy are looking for you. They just searched Lingbo Pond yesterday."

Xue Ning said: "Senior, I need to borrow the spring at the bottom of the pond."

Shui Qilin asked in surprise: "How do you know there is a spring at the bottom of the pool?"

A long time ago, Xue Ning discovered that the spring deep at the bottom of Lingbo Pool was connected to water sources in various parts of the sect.

"What do you want to do?"

"Find someone."

Shui Qilin stared at Xue Ning for a while, then said slowly: "I don't know what happened to you, I can help you. But you must promise me that you will never do anything detrimental to Tianyuan Dao Sect. ."

Xue Ning raised three fingers and swore: "Disciple Xue Ning swears that he will never do anything detrimental to the sect."

Shui Qilin has known Xue Ning for many years, and it can almost be said that she has watched him grow up. Knowing that the young man in front of him meant what he said, he slowly moved his body to the side, revealing a blue spring.

Xue Ning walked to the spring, half-knelt on the ground, and put his hands into the water.

Silver spider threads snaked out from between his fingers, spreading and growing along the underground waterways.

The boy closed his eyes and felt the various lights, shadows and sounds coming back from the end of the spider silk.

The spider silk follows the waterway and comes out of the Furong Canal at Tianmu Peak.

The Tianmu Peak in the middle of the night was solemn and dark, with lights everywhere except for a little light coming from the window of the Council of Elders.

The spider silk pierced the window paper and swam silently into the council chamber.

Jiang Wan sat at the desk by the window, reading the letters on the table, and couldn't sleep all night.

Shen Jue came to persuade her again during the day, asking her to put down her obsessions and delusions and return to him to live a better life.

But when Jiang Wan looked at Shen Jue's handsome face, she felt frightened.

They have been sleeping together in the same bed for more than twenty years. It is only today that she can see clearly whether the person beside her is a human or a ghost.

Jiang Wan gathered the letters on the table one by one, put them into a mustard bag, and smiled to herself.

Shen Jue was right. What she was doing now would not only irritate him, but also bring no benefits at all.

None of these letters can be sent out.

Jiang Wan packed up the letters and stood by the window, pacing back and forth, when she suddenly felt a small force tugging on her sleeve.

She looked down and found a cluster of slender spider silk wrapped around her wrist. She dipped some ink from the inkstone on the table and wrote on the paper: Master, it's me.

Jiang Wan quickly moved to the window, pierced the window paper and looked outside a few times. She found that the guard outside the door didn't notice anything unusual, so she calmed down a little, hooked on the cluster of spider threads, and whispered: "Ning'er, are you still here?" Okay?"

"I heard from Shen Jue that he imprisoned you in the Xiuwen Academy, but later you escaped from the dungeon."

Spider Silk wrote: Master Wife, how can I save you?

Jiang Wan muttered: "Currently, the Tianmu Peak is heavily guarded. Shen Jue has mobilized a few elders with extremely high cultivation levels to keep an eye on me. With your cultivation level, it is impossible to rescue me from their hands."

"However," Jiang Wan changed her words and said, "Master's wife doesn't need your help. Shen Jue doesn't dare to hurt me yet."

"Ning'er, listen carefully, Master Madam has something to do for you."

Jiang Wan took out the mustard bag containing the letter and hooked it onto the spider silk.

"The Ten Sects Competition lasts for half a month. Before the competition ends, you must find a way to deliver the letters to the heads of each sect."

Spider Silk made a nodding gesture and wrote on the table: Master, is there any hidden place for Tianyuan Dao Sect to hide its people?

Jiang Wan didn't know what Xue Ning meant by asking, but she still said a few things carefully.

Xue Ning was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be discovered by the guards and asked Jiang Wan to help him leave.

Jiang Wan opened the window and pretended to look at the moon to get some fresh air.

When an elder saw this, he came over and said, "Madam, you are more exposed, so you should rest early."

Jiang Wan didn't say anything, just stared at him with a pair of clear eyes, which made his face heat up, and finally walked away in a sullen manner.

The spider silk took the opportunity to hook the mustard seed bag and slide out of the window, returning to the bottom of Lingbo Pond along the waterway of Furong Canal.

Xue Ning took the mustard bag, opened it, and found that Jiang Wan actually wrote a letter in his own hand, asking the leaders of the three major sects and the seven major sects to bear witness, to reverse the case for Qi Bushu, and to expose the true face of Shen Jue, a villain.

Although the three major sects and the seven major sects have the same stance on the matter of Blood Moon Sect and Evil Demon Valley, they are not harmonious internally.

Everyone wants to be number one. Other sects have been jealous of Tianyuan Dao Sect's top spot for a long time. If they can take this opportunity to pull it down, I believe that few sects will miss such a great opportunity.

With this move, Jiang Wan actually tried her best to injure her enemy a thousand times, damage herself eight hundred, and bring down her sanctimonious husband.

Xue Ning put away the letter and said to Shui Qilin: "Senior, if someone goes to Lingbo Pool to search in the past few days, can you please cover me?"

Shui Qilin sighed and nodded in agreement.

It is old and is not interested in the rights and wrongs on the water. It only wants to act freely.

Xue Ning is a little friend it has rarely made in recent years, so it is willing to help him regardless of the reason.

The next day it was getting brighter, and the sword guards of Xiuwen Academy came into the water, saying that the Blood Moon Demon escaped from prison last night, and we were ordered to search.

No matter how many people came, they were blocked one by one by the water unicorn.

In the end, Shui Qilin was really annoyed by the disturbance, so he simply froze Lingbo Pool with a breath of ice energy.

During the few days that Xue Ning lived at the bottom of the pool, he had been secretly watching Mrs. Zhuiya's sitting and sleeping through the spring.

He hibernated patiently for several days, and found that late one night, Mrs. Zhuiya came back from abroad. The soles of her shoes were stained with red moss, as if she had been in the wild.

Xue Ning carefully recalled the several hiding places Jiang Wan told him that night, and finally discovered that only the forbidden area of ​​Tianmen Peak had such grass.

Mrs. Zhuiya is a foreigner, and it is impossible for her to visit the forbidden areas of his clan for no reason. There is only one possibility - she went to meet the person she wanted to see.

Xue Ning's injuries have recovered greatly.

That night, he said goodbye to Shui Qilin, swam along the waterway of the spring to a well near the guest courtyard, came out of the well, avoided the guards in the courtyard, and sent Jiang Wan's autographed letters to the desks of the heads of each faction.

Then, he headed towards Tianmen Peak without any hesitation.

Mrs. Zhuiya was able to hide Qin Huaichu on Tianmen Peak, obviously with Shen Jue's approval.

Xue Ning didn't know how many guards Shen Jue had placed on Tianmen Peak to protect Qin. He only knew that before dawn, Qin Huaichu's head would be hung on the flagpole of Zhenwu Temple.
