I'm his wife, how come I don't know?

It seemed that Jiang Chu's two acts of mischief had worked.

Lu Shuyan actually noticed that there was no trace of Su Xing and Su Yue among these outer disciples.

He asked the outer disciple standing in the front in a deep voice: "Where are Su Xing and Su Yue?"

The outer disciples were all surprised. After all, each of these disciples was a high-minded person.

It is quite difficult to remember the name of an outer disciple.

Outer disciples, you look at me and I look at you.

In the end, they all shook their heads.

The leading disciple bowed and replied: "To reply to Senior Brother, we didn't see either of them."

Lu Shuyan frowned.

Jiang Chu added: "Let's go to her courtyard and take a look!"

Lu Shuyan turned his head and gave Jiang Chu a cold look, giving him a warning.

Jiang Chu waved his hand and stopped talking.

Lu Shuyan turned and looked at Mo Yao and Feng Xiang.

"You two can form a group and go look somewhere else."

Mo Yao and Feng Xiang replied together: "Okay, big brother."

Then his eyes fell on Jiang Chu: "You go with me."

Jiang Chu nodded.

With a disciple leading the way, Jiang Chu followed Lu Shuyan into a quiet courtyard.

The courtyard is extremely remote.

The spiritual energy in the courtyard is extremely thin, almost the same as when Jiang Chu was in Xiaojia Village.

Before entering the courtyard, Lu Shuyan turned around and asked the outer disciple wearing green robes.

"Are they both unwelcome in the outer sect?"

The outer disciple in green clothes waved his hands hastily to deny: "How is that possible!"

"They are both very popular among the outer disciples."

Then his eyes fell on the yard, and he said helplessly:

"This courtyard was originally occupied by a servant, but for some reason, the two of them switched positions with that servant."

Lu Shuyan frowned. As a disciple who was practicing cultivation, he ran to the courtyard where the spiritual energy was insufficient.

It's a bit suspicious indeed.

Lu Shuyan glanced at Jiang Chu who was looking at him eagerly, and then looked away.

"Squeak-"

The door to the courtyard was pushed open.

The stone path winds its way to the main house, with side rooms on both sides, similar to courtyards in the human world.

"Su Xing, Su Yue, are you there?"

The outer disciple walked in front, shouting as he walked.

But the door of the house was closed and there was no echo for a long time.

Seeing no one responding, the disciple turned to look at Lu Shuyan: "Maybe he didn't come back from the mountain."

However, Lu Shuyan felt that something was not right.

He took out the jade slip and dialed a name.

"Buzz--" After a few vibrations, the face of the gatekeeper disciple appeared in front of everyone.

The disciple bowed respectfully: "Greetings to Senior Brother, Fourth Brother, and this Senior Brother."

Lu Shuyan nodded: "Can we have the entry and exit records of two twin girls named Su Xing and Su Yue today?"

Upon hearing this, the disciple took out another jade slip that recorded everything in and out, and waved his hands.

Countless names float above.

Finally, it stopped on Su Xing and Su Yue.

The disciple replied, "The latest entry and exit records show that Su Xing and Su Yue entered the mountain gate a week ago and did not come down the mountain again."

After the disciple finished speaking, Lu Shuyan narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay, thank you."

"You're too polite, senior brother." The disciple felt a little embarrassed.

Lu Shuyan put away the jade slip and looked towards the tightly closed gate of the courtyard.

The three of them all had a bad feeling in their hearts.

The outer disciple who led the way walked in front: "Big Brother, Fourth Brother, I will explore the way."

Lu Shuyan took a step forward and said, "Go behind Jiang Chu."

Jiang Chu did not hesitate. He took a step forward and offered the sapling.

The sapling grew slowly, emitting three colors of light: golden, green and white.

Under his protection, the disciples felt a little relieved.

Lu Shuyan waved his hand and the tightly closed door opened.

There was still no movement inside, and one could even see a thin layer of dust on the table.

It looks like no one has lived here for a long time.

Jiang Chu looked at them carefully, but he knew firmly in his heart that these two were spies from the demon clan.

He just stayed in the mountain gate under the name of Su Yue Su Xing, not really for cultivation.

When they have free time, they wish to overturn the entire Longyin Immortal Mansion.

How could he come back and rest obediently?

Following Lu Shuyan's footsteps, Jiang Chu also led the outer disciple into the house.

Sunlight streamed into the house, and dust floated in the air.

There was a faint musty smell in the air.

It makes people feel instinctively uncomfortable.

Lu Shuyan walked from the outer hall to the inner room, and Jiang Chu followed closely.

Lu Shuyan's back froze slightly as he stood there.

The scene before one's eyes makes one shiver all over.

Jiang Chu stuck his head out and looked inside, but Lu Shuyan blocked his eyes with his hand.

Jiang Chu's eyes went dark, and in front of him was Lu Shuyan's warm and dry palm.

"Take him out first, I'll notify Master and the others."

Although Jiang Chu was curious, he had no choice since his senior brother didn't let him look.

He could only take this outer disciple out with him.

After making sure Jiang Chu had left.

Lu Shuyan took out the jade slip and found his master.

"Master, our outer disciples Su Xing and Su Yue were stripped of their skins, their inner cores were emptied, and their hearts were missing."

"The remaining incomplete body is sealed in an ice coffin."

"On top of the ice coffin is the demon clan's soul-soothing formation."

……

Not long after, many meteors streaked across the sky.

The elders or leaders of the five sects settled in Su Xing and Su Yue's courtyard.

Xing Lan was in the lead, striding over with cold eyes.

Lu Shuyan bowed to the many elders and masters.

He recounted how he discovered it.

Of course, I didn’t say those two embarrassing words Jiang Chu said.

The small inner room was packed with elders and masters.

A transparent crystal coffin suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

The crystal coffin has no lid.

It stood upright next to the wooden bed.

Inside the coffin were two corpses without skin, with only flesh and tendons exposed.

Two corpses stood side by side in the coffin, with their eyes closed, looking extremely hideous.

The chest area is completely empty, and the golden elixir area in the lower abdomen is also empty.

Outside the ice coffin, there was a faint flashing of light black air, and complex and cold runes appeared from time to time.

But because of the ice coffin, it did not leak out.

The bones inside did not rot at all because of the ice coffin and the formation.

For example, the blood of a freshly slaughtered pig is bright red.

"Demons! This is too much!"

I don’t know which elder couldn’t help it first, and his voice was cold.

Xing Lan closed his eyes: "I'm afraid things are not that simple."

"The reason why the demons peeled off the skin, took the elixir and the heart is probably because they wanted to get past the demonic energy detection at the gate."

Everyone's expressions became heavy.

However, we have to accept the fact that the demons may have been infiltrating for quite some time.

They were even unsure whether the two demons had changed into human skins and continued to hide in the Longyin Immortal Mansion.

Or maybe, among the five sects, there were also demons who sneaked in using the same method.

-

Jiang Chu was not allowed to enter and could only walk around the outer gate.

I saw a familiar figure from a distance.

He shouted excitedly: "Senior Brother Si!"

Unexpectedly, Si Ling flew away without even looking back.

Jiang Chu was left standing there in confusion.

What happened to Si Ling?

I didn't provoke him...
