　　In the Great Prison of the Nine Mansions.
　　“Bang！”
　　When the stone door of the great prison fell, Xu Taiping’s vision went dark, and there was no sound to be heard around him.
　　Relying on his spiritual sense, Xu Taiping walked step by step to the cold stone bed in the stone cell and then sat cross-legged without saying a word.
　　However, although Xu Taiping seemed to be silent on the surface, in fact, he was communicating with Fairy Lingyue through sound transmission.
　　After Xu Taiping sat down, Fairy Lingyue immediately asked him again through sound transmission：
　　“Have you been locked in the cell？”
　　Xu Taiping replied calmly through sound transmission：
　　“Yes.”
　　After using his spiritual sense to sense the environment of this cell, Xu Taiping continued to communicate with Fairy Lingyue through sound transmission：
　　“This stone cell should have been chiseled directly in the mountain. There are runes engraved all over the four walls. There should be only one passage to get in or out.”
　　“That is to say, any cultivator who enters this passage next may be Su Chan or his subordinates.”
　　Fairy Lingyue immediately responded through sound transmission：
　　“Don’t worry, I have arranged for Bai Yu to stare at the mountain peak closest to Zhenyun Peak. He will write down everyone who approaches that entrance.”
　　Hearing this, Xu Taiping secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
　　He was about to face what was very likely an assassination planned by Su Chan. It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t nervous.
　　However, although he knew about this assassination in advance through the Lotus Pupil, he was still a little confused about the motive of Su Chan first framing him and then assassinating him in this prison.
　　There were some things he wanted to confirm with Fairy Lingyue.
　　So he immediately confirmed with Fairy Lingyue again and said：
　　Sister Lingyue, I have been imprisoned in this prison for almost more than two hours. Is there any movement outside now？
　　However, this time, Fairy Lingyue did not reply to Xu Taiping immediately, as if she was busy with something.
　　Xu Taiping was not in a hurry, but sat quietly in the stone cell waiting.
　　About the time it takes to burn an incense stick later, the voice of Fairy Lingyue finally came in the mind of Xu Taiping, who was sitting quietly on the stone bed——
　　Taiping, just now people from the Nine Mansions came to search. I took Ping’an and changed to another place to live.
　　When Xu Taiping heard this, he immediately transmitted a voice and asked：
　　Sister Lingyue, are you and Ping’an all right？
　　Fairy　Lingyue　replied：
It’s nothing serious, but an elder of the Nine Mansions seems to have mastered the true meaning of catching shadows. Ping’an and I almost had our traces were discovered by them.
　　When Xu Taiping heard this, he was a littlefeel uncertainand said：
　　With this supernatural power, will they discover the hiding place of Elder Chu Qiuya?
　　The matter that Chu Qiuya was rescued by them must never be exposed at present, otherwise it will definitely arouse the vigilance of Su Chan and them.
　　Fairy　Lingyue　replied：
　　”Don’t worry. That elder doesn’t have enough cultivation. Once he leaves for more than an hour, he won’t be able to find it.”
　　Hearing this, Xu Taiping heaved a sigh of relief.
　　He remembered very clearly that on that day, Chu Qiuya was assassinated and it was not until the next day that the people from the Nine Mansions discovered it.
　　At this time, only the Fairy Lingyue continued to speak to Xu Taiping with a hint of joy in her tone：
　　”Although Peace and I were almost discovered by the people from the Nine Mansions, on the way we were looking for a new residence, we heard an interesting thing.”
　　”This thing should be able to explain why Su Chan wanted to frame you first and then kill you in prison.”
　　Xu Taiping asked curiously：
　　”What thing？”
　　The Fairy Lingyue replied：
　　”The matter that you were imprisoned in the Zhenyun Peak Prison by the Nine Mansions has been spread in Liuxian Town.”
　　Xu Taiping was a little surprised and said：
　　”Who spread this news？”
　　The Fairy Lingyue replied：
　　”It must not be the Nine Mansions.”
　　In order not to leak the news, when the Nine Mansions interrogated Xu Taiping before, the mansion master Liu Chuxuan only arranged for a few trusted elders, and even his capable general Huangque was not informed.
　　It can be seen that at least the Nine Mansions did not want to release this news.
　　Xu Taiping’s eyes froze and said：
　　”Then it can only be him.”
　　The ‘him’ in Xu Taiping’s mouth was naturally Su Chan.
　　Xu Taiping immediately asked the Fairy Lingyue again：
　　“After this news was spread, what was the reaction of all parties？”
　　Fairy Lingyue asked with a smile：
　　“Taiping, you want to ask about the reaction of the casual cultivators and the disciples of the sects and aristocratic families, right？”
　　Before Xu Tianping could answer, he heard Fairy Lingyue continue to say：
　　“At present, whether it is in the competition of asking the sword in the spiritual mirror or in the restaurants and teahouses in Liuxian Town, the casual cultivators and the disciples of the sects and aristocratic families are arguing fiercely.”
“The casual cultivators are scolding the Nine Mansions for being shameless, saying that because your performance in the asking the sword competition has overwhelmed the sect cultivators, in order to suppress the casual cultivators, they will frame the death of Chu Qiuya on you.”
　　“And the sect and aristocratic family cultivators are scolding you as an ungrateful person. Obviously, Chu Qiuya pointed you out in front of the Golden Hall, but you abandoned righteousness for profit and killed people for money. Then, they started to scold all the casual cultivators as ungrateful people and even demanded that the Nine Mansions remove the casual cultivators from the Sword Champion Meeting.”
　　“Bai Yu even saw that in a restaurant, the casual cultivators and the sect cultivators were fighting.”
　　After listening to Fairy Lingyue’s words, Xu Tianping, who was originally a little confused about the motive of Su Chan first framing him and then killing him in prison, suddenly understood in his heart——
　　“Frame me for assassinating Elder Chu Qiuya.”
　　“And make public the news that I was imprisoned by the Nine Mansions.”
　　“This is the first fire lit between the freelance cultivators and the cultivators of sects and aristocratic families in True Martial Heaven.”
　　“Next, after assassinating me in the prison, they will then make public the true cause of Elder Chu Qiuya’s death.”
　　“Let the freelance cultivators discover that I was actually framed by the Nine Mansions.”
　　“By then, the freelance cultivators, who have been driven mad with anger, simply won’t care about the truth of my death in prison and will only keep venting their anger towards the Nine Mansions and the disciples of other sects and aristocratic families.”
　　“And this is precisely the second fire he lit between the freelance cultivators and the cultivators of sects and aristocratic families in True Martial Heaven.”
　　“After these two fires, the conflict between the freelance cultivators and the cultivators of sects and aristocratic families in True Martial Heaven will be inevitable.”
　　“By then, the Sword Exalt Association will surely be in chaos, and True Martial Heaven will surely be in chaos！”
The more Xu Taiping thought about it, the more became.
　　At this time, Immortal Fairy Lingyue also transmitted a voice and said：
　　“Now it seems that the reason why they didn’t immediately implement their plan after killing Elder Chu Qiuya.”
Was actually waiting for a freelance cultivator to emerge at the Sword Exalt Association and then frame him.
　　“So this person, if it wasn’t you, would most likely be Bai Di of Carp Willow Village.”
　　Xu Taiping asked somewhat curiously：
　　“Why didn’t they choose Cui Tiegut？”
　　Immortal Fairy Lingyue replied：
　　“They can’t choose Cui Tiegu because this person’s combat power is too strong, and the risk of framing him is too great.”
　　Xu Taiping nodded secretly.
　　After a moment of silence, Fairy Lingyue suddenly said, “There is another thing. I don’t know if I should tell you now？”
　　Xu Taiping was a little curious and said,
　　“Sister Lingyue, you can just say it.”
　　Fairy　Lingyue　said,
When we were inquiring for news, we found that your name seems to still be in the last sword-questioning in ten days.
　　Xu Taiping asked in confusion,
　　“Didn’t my sword-questioning already end？”
　　Fairy Lingyue smiled and said,
　　“It’s your name, Xu Taiping.”
　　When Xu Taiping heard this, his heart trembled, and then he felt warm in his heart and said, “Probably the headmaster and the others found a way to add me in.”
　　In fact, as Xu Taiping guessed, not only did the headmaster Zhao Qian make the nine mansions make an exception and give him a quota, but also arranged his competition in the last match, just to wait for him to come back and be able to participate in the True Martial Sword Champion Conference.”
　　“Rumble！…”
　　Just at this time, a sound of mechanical expansion and chain pulling broke the peace of the stone room.
　　Xu Taiping’s heart trembled immediately, and he transmitted a voice to Fairy Lingyue, “Sister Lingyue, someone is coming.”
　　Fairy Lingyue also became a little nervous immediately and transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping, “Prepare to pull out the needle, and then act according to Liantong’s deduction！”
　　Immortal Fairy Lingyue immediately added：
　　“Su Chan is no ordinary opponent. Taiping, you must be extremely careful！”
