Chapter 1668: The Ghost Shaving Incident

It shouldn't be possible for someone to break into the encampment at night without being discovered. Furthermore, even if that were the case, who the hell would be so bored as to go to such great lengths to break in, only to help many disciples shave their heads?

If it were one or two disciples, it could be called a coincidence.

But overnight, a full thousand disciples had lost all their hair; this obviously couldn't be a coincidence.

Li Jianxin frowned, thinking back and forth in his heart. The elder below saw this and guessed.

"Sect Master, could it be the work of the Undying Race?"

Thinking about it, it seemed like the only possibility, but upon hearing this, Li Jianxin rolled his eyes at him and said.

"Do you think that's possible? If it were the Undying Race, it wouldn't be hair that was lost, but heads."

Both sides are in an extermination war; is the Undying Race sick or stupid? Coming to shave a few hairs for fun?

Hearing this, the elder also gave a sheepish smile; he had thought too much.

"Let the Alchemist Alliance come and take a look to see if it was caused by injury or poisoning."

Thinking it over, Li Jianxin felt that the most likely cause was poisoning or injury.

The Undying Race had strange methods, and the Blood Refining Sacred Ground, for example, possessed methods like poisonous blood.

If it were a sequela caused by poisoning, that would make sense.

Hearing this, the elder nodded in response.

"Yes, I will go and invite the people from the Alchemist Alliance over right away."

Not long after, those Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion disciples who had lost all their hair were gathered together, and more than a dozen alchemists from the Alchemist Alliance, led by an elder, began to examine everyone's bodies.

"Eh, strange."

"Elder Mo, is there a problem?"

Hearing this, the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion elder on the side asked nervously. Something happened after just one battle?

However, Elder Mo shook his head, then turned to look at this Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion elder and said.

"There are no signs of poisoning in their bodies at all."

"None?"

"Indeed none. This old man can be certain, only..."

"Only what?"

"Only that there is a medicinal force in their bodies that is the same; they must have taken the same healing elixir before."

But this wasn't a strange thing either; the elixirs of all major sects were uniformly distributed by the three major sacred grounds and the Alchemist Alliance.

It was very normal for disciples to have taken the same healing elixir.

"Then why is this?"

"It is not yet clear."

Even the Alchemist Alliance couldn't find the source of the problem for the time being. When the news reached Li Jianxin, he could only helplessly say.

"Since there is no major harm, then let it be. Strengthen the watch personnel tonight; such a thing must never happen again."

"Yes."

There were no clues, but fortunately, those thousand disciples had no other problems besides losing their hair; their bodies were very healthy.

For the whole day, there was no movement from the Undying Race side, but the human side, taking advantage of the great victory, took the initiative to launch an attack on the Undying Race.

"The Sacred Ground has ordered us to take the initiative to attack."

Where the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion was located, Li Jianxin gathered his disciples, preparing to launch an attack on the Undying Race.

However, it could be clearly seen that among the many disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, those shiny bald heads were very eye-catching.

And these disciples who had lost their hair couldn't help but blush when facing the gazes of many senior and junior brothers.

Especially the female disciples, who were almost crying with grievance.

Not having hair was really so ugly.

But now was obviously not the time to care about these things. Following Li Jianxin's order, the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion disciples launched their attack.

Facing the human counterattack, the Undying Race side was obviously well-prepared.

So the human race didn't take much advantage either.

The Blood Refining Sacred Ground had always been avoiding the Dao One Sacred Ground, and facing the Withered Ghost Sacred Ground, the Cloud-Stealing Hand wasn't so easy to use.

So after a fierce battle, both sides had casualties. Finally, seeing that there was no opportunity, the human race also temporarily withdrew. As for the Undying Race, they didn't choose to pursue.

It could only be counted as a simple conflict; it didn't have much impact on the battle situation.

The battle ended, the injured disciples seized the time to heal, and the major sects each guarded their own defensive lines.

However, in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, after one night passed, another few thousand disciples became bald.

Hearing this news, Li Jianxin was completely unable to hold it together.

After fighting fiercely for two days and finally managing to withdraw, they had only rested for one night, and another few thousand disciples had their hair shaved off.

And this time, the number of people was even greater than before.
