"Since you haven't offended anyone, who was it that poisoned the wooden fences of the Spiritual Beasts?" Protector Orange frowned slightly, but his words caused Wu Di to be secretly surprised.

Soul Chaser Poison? Wasn't this a poison that could kill cultivators? Under normal circumstances, a cultivator's physical toughness would be much stronger than an ordinary person's, so even if they were poisoned, they wouldn't necessarily die. Instead, they would be able to extract the poison through spiritual energy, so they wouldn't die.

But Soul Pursuing Poison was a poison that could kill cultivators. Of course, this poison could only be used against disciples below the Earth Fiend Stage.

Wu Di's back was drenched in cold sweat, because he thought about the first person who appeared. The other person was just standing in front of the wooden fence without entering, and the poison he used would not kill anyone, so the answer was obvious.

The first person who appeared was actually trying to put him to death, and the last person was probably trying to kill those Spiritual Beasts so that Wu Di could take responsibility of watching over them.

This meant that there was an even more vicious person who wanted to kill him. The first person Wu Di suspected was Yu Qing, and this person had always wanted his life, but because he did not have the chance to do so, he had the intention to rope Wu Di in.

When Mu Lee told him that someone was going to frame him, the first person Wu Di thought of was Yu Qing. However, there were currently two groups of people, and he was actually not clear on who exactly wanted to frame him.

"We have to thoroughly investigate this matter. Also, last night, someone heard a shout and that disciple on night watch went over to investigate. Could this person who called him be the one who poisoned him?" The Protector Orange analyzed it in detail.

Wu Di's heart was in turmoil, he never thought that someone would cause trouble, and if he had pursued the matter carefully, he would have been at the scene yesterday as well. He had also seen the process of the first person poisoning, but unfortunately, because of the angle, he did not know that the wooden fence was filled with poison.

The Protector Yellow said, "Strange things happen frequently in the Seven Star Sect recently, and we can't rule out the possibility of the demons causing trouble. So let's send word, let everyone be on high alert, if there are any suspicious people, we can immediately arrest them."

"Yes sir!" A few disciples went out to receive their orders.

Wu Di and the two outer sect disciples who were following him around didn't know if they should interrupt or not, but as time passed, the two protectors who had been silent all this time finally spoke up.

"Alright, no matter what, there weren't any big losses this time, we will investigate the poison thoroughly. As for the place where the Spiritual Beasts are kept, it seems that it needs to be reorganized, we will think of ways to set up Inhibition s in the surroundings, and we can't go near it unless we have a badge. You may leave. "

"Wu Di, as the disciple in charge of managing the spirit birds, you must not slack off. If anything happens to the spirit birds, I will follow the rules. Do you understand?" The Protector Yellow said.

When Wu Di was about to leave with his two companions, he suddenly paused at the door, "Protectors, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."

The two protectors frowned, but Protector Orange quickly let the two disciples go, leaving Wu Di behind.

Wu Di cupped his fists and said respectfully, "Actually, even I am afraid of losing my guard, so I sprinkled some of this Heavenly Song Grass' powder at the wooden fence."

"Heavenly Songs Grass?" Protector Orange frowned as he repeated his sentence.

"I found some Heavenly Songs Grass during the last training. I wonder if Protector Orange still remembers them. Disciples used to work in the Spirit Medicine Garden, so they had a better understanding of spirit medicine and spirit grass than most disciples. The Heavenly Song Grass already had a hallucinating effect, so the disciples naturally sprinkled some of it at the entrance of the wooden fence, as they were worried that someone might accidentally barge in. However, this kind of grass would definitely not kill others. If you do not believe it, you can check the method on the spot. "

Wu Di was not trying to court death, but only by taking the initiative to explain himself, so as to not let him become the suspected scapegoat in the end.

When Protector Orange received the porcelain bottle that Wu Di passed over, he only took a whiff of it and immediately nodded his head, "It is indeed Heavenly Song Grass, and there was also some other stuff, but they were not highly toxic."

"Then, who was the one who smeared the poison on it and killed the person? Regardless of what this disciple was doing at the place where he was rearing the Spiritual Beasts, it was not enough to take his life." Protector Yellow looked at Wu Di with a sharp gaze.

Wu Di honestly said that he understood medicine and frequently went in and out of the Spirit Medicine Garden. He was the only one that had a high chance of coming in contact with poison plants, so naturally he was already the number one suspect.

"Protectors, I want to see who this dead senior brother is. I wonder if he will agree?" Wu Di asked.

If he had to make people suspicious sooner or later, it would be better if he just openly walked into the group that was suspected, Wu Di's goal now was to get rid of that suspicion as soon as possible.

Of course, Protector Yellow was unwilling, he had many distrust towards this Wu Di, but he opened his mouth and said, "If you want to see, there's no harm in it.

Wu Di walked over to the corpse and removed the white cloth, but discovered that it was an unfamiliar face that Wu Di did not recognize. Wu Di frowned slightly. He wanted to know from this person's identity who sent them, and now it seemed that the clue was broken again.

Just as Wu Di was feeling disappointed, he suddenly saw a black scar on the corpse's neck, his face immediately changed as he said, "Protector, it's a Demonic Beast."

The moment the two Protectors heard, they immediately stood up and ran towards the corpse. When they lowered their heads and saw the black gas around the disciple's neck, they looked at each other.

Protector Orange straightened his back and said to Wu Di, "You must keep this a secret, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone. Leave this place first."

Wu Di nodded and turned to leave. However, he didn't look too good. He had already heard about the matter of the Thousand Goblins Sect getting ready to make a move, but now, he didn't dare to say anything.

Could it be that a great calamity was really coming to the Seven Star Sect this time? Wu Di's thoughts were heavy all along the way, and he had unknowingly arrived at the forest where the spirit birds were kept. He did not expect that there were already a few outer disciples here, so it seemed that the higher ups were paying great attention to this matter.

Wu Di did not go closer. He only looked at them from afar and left. The investigation into the culprit was naturally left to the concern of Protector Yellow and the others. He was just a mere disciple, how could he have the time and energy to waste on such a thing?

The next day, he was informed that the forest where the Spiritual Beasts were staying in was temporarily burying Inhibition. Wu Di only needed to wait for news from them for the next few days, and did not need to go over to feed the Spiritual Beasts.

This was the best news Wu Di could hear. He only went to pick up the medicinal ingredients once every half a month, and now, it meant that he had nothing to do for the past few days. It would be too bad for him if he did not take the chance to cultivate properly.

Wu Di did not know that his every move had already been monitored, and in secret. However, this did not affect Wu Di in the slightest. He was currently engrossed in his North Nether Soul Refinement Song, and would stay in the house for two or three days straight without coming out. If not for Mu Lee and Zhao Tiehniu coming over to look for him, he would not even be able to show his face.

After ten days had passed, Wu Di, who was cultivating inside, heard a series of knocks on the door. He immediately kept his cultivation technique, the one looking for him now was definitely not Mu Lee or Zhao Tiehniu, which was why he was stopping so quickly.

When Wu Di opened the door, he saw two outer sect disciples standing outside. It was the two who had brought him to see the two protectors last time.

"Senior Brother Wu, the two Protectors want to invite you over."

Wu Di nodded his head, without tidying up anything, he closed the door and followed them.

When Wu Di came to the pavilion once again, the atmosphere inside was the same, filled with reverence. Wu Di cupped his hands and saluted the two of them, but an unexpected guest also appeared.

"Humph!" Do you two think I won't know if you hide it? "This kid might be someone from the Thousand Goblins Sect. The sect has made a rule that they would rather kill by mistake than let him go. Have the two of you gone senile?"

Protector Yellow slapped the armrest of his chair and said, "Protector Red, please pay attention to your words. This is my place, if you are still so rude, I will immediately get someone to kick you out."

"What?" Is there something wrong with what I said? Should we go up and try to reason with it and see if it's you or me who's right? "
