Chapter 178 It seems that there is no need to go
In the market town at the foot of Xuanfengmen Mountain, Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin, who had come in disguise, inquired about the latest developments of the matter again.
After confirming that Cheng Shuyan was currently safe, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
After some discussion, the two came to the conclusion that, judging from the current situation, if they wanted to enter Xuanfeng Sect, they would probably have to reveal their identities and enter with their real identities.
But once their identities are exposed, their peaceful days will be immediately interrupted, and they will have to go back and face the problems they have avoided.
The two of them sat at a tea stall on the street, and no one spoke.
After a long time, Ji Qinglin took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and said to Jiang Hongyue:
"Hongyue, don't go. If you show up, I'm afraid the Jiang family will smell it and come. I'll go save my junior sister."
"When did you go crazy?" Jiang Hongyue rolled her eyes at him as if he were an idiot. "Aren't the consequences of revealing our identities the same for you and me? Do you think your father can't smell you?"
"It's fine with me. At worst, I can find a secret place and hide from him for a few years before coming out."
"Now that you mention it, it seems like a way out. Let's go together and find a secret place to hide so we can keep each other company."
Jiang Hongyue thought carefully about Ji Qinglin's words and confirmed his idea.
"But your mother..." Ji Qinglin was a little worried and spoke in a much softer tone.
Sure enough, he glanced at Jiang Hongyue cautiously, and her expression instantly turned cold.
"I don't have a mother!"
She interrupted Ji Qinglin harshly.
Ji Qinglin didn't understand the tone and didn't dare to say anything more.
Ji Qinglin raised his head and looked around, trying to ease the embarrassment.
Suddenly, an exaggerated look of shock appeared on his face, and he stared blankly behind Jiang Hongyue.
"Wait! Hongyue, it seems we don't need to go to Xuanfengmen!"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Hongyue felt that he was confused. She turned around and looked in the direction of Ji Qinglin's gaze, and unexpectedly revealed the same expression as Ji Qinglin.
"It seems... we really don't need to go to Xuanfengmen anymore."
……
In order to avoid involving the Cheng family and her parents in this matter, she stopped her parents from wanting to protect her.
She allowed Sect Master Xiao to take her away, and Cheng Huaixu and his wife did not stop him, so the Xuanfeng Sect naturally had no reason to attack.
She was imprisoned in a dungeon, awaiting the soul-searching trial by the Cen family's ancestor.
Cheng Huaixu and his wife did not stop them, and they were unable to wipe out the Cheng family in one fell swoop, which made Sect Leader Xiao feel a little regretful.
However, he was naturally happy to get rid of the scourge of Cheng Shuyan and eliminate Xie Jingxiu's inner demons.
After being trapped in the dungeon for two days, all her spiritual power was sealed, and she was like a mortal.
Fortunately, the people from Xuanfeng Sect didn't expect that there were two spiritual bases in her body and did not check carefully, so her death energy could still be used.
On the third day, someone finally took her out.
They locked her up for these two days just to wear down her will.
She was brought to Xie Jingxiu's bedside and saw that Xie Jingxiu's face was as pale as paper, lying on the bed like a dead person.
Cheng Shuyan was stunned for a moment, and then a strong sense of pleasure surged in his heart.
Although she failed to kill him, seeing his current state helped to ease some of the hatred in her heart.
Seeing her expression, Sect Leader Xiao was immediately furious, "Witch! If you hand over the antidote, I will give you a chance to reincarnate!
Otherwise... your soul will be shattered and you will never be reborn again!"
"Antidote? Senior, I've already said that I wasn't the one who poisoned Xie Jingxiu. How could I possibly have an antidote?"
"Hmph! There's no point in quibbling. Master Cen will soon perform his soul-searching technique on you, and the truth will be revealed!"
Search for souls.
Don’t those who claim to be righteous also use such sinister techniques?
What the Xuanfeng Sect is doing to her now is no different from what they call evil cultivators and demonic cultivators.
Cheng Shuyan couldn't help but scoff, "What if after searching my soul, the truth isn't what Senior Xiao suspected, and I was framed? How does Xuanfeng Sect plan to compensate me?"
Before Sect Leader Xiao could say anything, Elder Zhao jumped out and said, "It's an indisputable fact that you injured Jing Xiu!"
"There is no point in saying more. Please ask Uncle Cen to take action." Sect Leader Xiao said no more and waited for the ancestor of the Cen family to arrive.
If this matter had not been brought to the outside world, the people sent by those families would still be in Xuanfeng Sect, waiting to see the outcome of this matter. Why would he go to so much trouble to kill Cheng Shuyan?
Sect Leader Xiao was feeling very upset. He was a dignified Yuanying Zhenjun, but now he had to argue with a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The ancestor of the Cen family arrived at the outer room soon. In order not to disturb Xie Jingxiu, everyone walked to the outer room together.
As a powerful cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, the ancestor of the Cen family naturally didn't bother to waste time talking to Cheng Shuyan.
As soon as he saw Cheng Shuyan, without him making any move, Cheng Shuyan was already confined in front of him.
Then he waved his hand, and a complex seal appeared in front of everyone, and instantly disappeared into the center of Cheng Shuyan's eyebrows.
Seeing this, Shen Yunjian didn't care about losing his composure and said to the Cen family's ancestor, "Senior Cen, please think twice. Once the soul-searching technique is used, there will be no turning back!"
The head of the Shen family was unable to stop the man and could only plead with the ancestor of the Cen family.
"Senior Cen, please calm down. This kid hasn't been through anything serious. Please forgive me if my words offend you."
Seeing that the Cen family's ancestor had no intention of speaking, Sect Leader Xiao said to the Shen family's head:
"Room? She injured someone in my Xuanfeng Sect. This alone is enough to make her deserve death.
Now, Master Cen is only making the truth clearer! How can there be any talk of a turnaround?
Brother Shen, in the end, Xuanfeng Sect is the victim in this matter, and now we are just bringing the murderer to justice."
As soon as Sect Leader Xiao finished speaking, something strange happened on Cheng Shuyan's side.
The soul-searching technique did not stop. In order to let everyone see what happened that day, the ancestor of the Cen family put everything into the photo stone.
The scene begins with Xie Jingxiu going alone to find Cheng Shuyan, and ends with Cheng Shuyan stabbing him in the chest with a sword.
Through the open door, one can clearly see the curling incense burning in Cheng Shuyan's room.
After the soul search was completed, the ancestor of the Cen family turned around and left.
Without saying anything, everyone could guess what happened from the picture in the photo stone.
Upon seeing this, Sect Leader Xiao immediately shouted, "Witch! Now let's see how you can quibble! Come, take this witch to the punishment platform. I will personally execute her!"
Meng Tingwan and others who were watching the excitement on the side looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect that what Xuanfengmen said was actually true.
But why would Cheng Shuyan do such a stupid thing? Poisoning someone else's disciple in their territory?
