Chapter 939
When the divine sense swept past, Zhang Xiaohua became alert and focused his attention outside the hall. When the sword light rushed up, he pretended to be absent-minded and looked outside the hall.
"Aiyo!"
Zhang Xiaohua pretended to panic and didn't care about etiquette. He took a step forward and fled into Mo Xuan's Palace.
Although Zhang Xiaohua didn't release his divine sense and didn't have time to see who was attacking him, he thought that as long as he caught Nun Jing Yi's attention, who would dare to be arrogant in Mo Xuan's Palace?
Unexpectedly, things went beyond his expectations. He quickly moved forward and escaped the attack of the sword light. However, when the person who attacked saw Zhang Xiaohua dodging, he didn't give up and chased after Zhang Xiaohua. A sharp light followed behind Zhang Xiaohua.
"Sect Leader, save me ~" Zhang Xiaohua shouted and wanted to use the Ethereal Steps. At this moment, Nun Jing Yi exerted strength in her feet and floated into the air. With a few steps, she arrived beside Zhang Xiaohua. She stretched out her hand and caught the sword light behind Zhang Xiaohua with two fingers. She said coldly, "Elder Jing Gang, you … what are you doing?"
Zhang Xiaohua hid behind Nun Jing Yi. When she turned around, she saw Jing Gang floating down. Nun Jing Gang had a veil on her face, but the undulation of the veil made her look extremely angry …
"Oh no, could it be … that something has been exposed?" Zhang Xiaohua's heart thumped.
However, he was no longer as nervous as when he first arrived at Lingering Fragrance Peak. He took a look and pretended to tremble. "Jing … Nun Jing Gang?
This lowly one … How did this lowly one offend you?
You actually … actually sneak attacked me from behind? "
What Nun Jing Gang did just now was the shameless sneak attack from behind in the pugilistic world!
"Elder Jing Gang, do you have anything to say?"
Jing Yi said coldly. "Mo Xuan's Palace is not a place to use weapons. Although you are the sect's Grand Elder, you still have to abide by the sect's rules. If you can't give a reason, don't blame me for being impartial!"
Jing Yi Shitai kept calling Jing Gang Shitai "Elder" but never mentioned the title of "Senior Sister" because she was angry.
"Sect Leader is so impressive!"
Jing Gang didn't avoid it and sneered. "Three of my disciples were killed by this shameless brat. How can you make me calm?
If I don't kill him, how can I face Zhuoqun? "
Jing Yi Shitai frowned and said in surprise, "Elder Jing Gang, you can't talk nonsense. How could Ren Xiaoyao kill Yue Zhuoqun?
Moreover, the two of them have nothing to do with each other. There's no reason for them to have a dispute! "
"If I can use my sword in Mo Xuan's Palace, I naturally have something to use against him. Otherwise … how can I dare to kill in front of Sect Leader?" Jing Gang was furious and didn't put Jing Yi's prestige in her eyes.
A trace of anger flashed in Nun Jing Yi's eyes. She looked at the long sword in her hand and scolded, "Put down the long sword. I'm here. Tell me the whole story. If Yue Zhuoqun was harmed by Ren Xiaoyao, I'll definitely redress her grievances!"
Nun Jing Gang pondered for a moment and loosened her grip. At the same time, Nun Jing Yi also loosened her grip and the longsword fell to the ground. Nun Jing Gang's arm moved slightly, wanting to grab the longsword. However, just as she moved her hand, she felt a chill. She subconsciously raised her head and saw Nun Jing Yi's murderous gaze.
Jing Gang was startled. She heard the sound of the sword falling to the ground.
"Hmph." Nun Jing Gang snorted and coldly looked at the 'panicking' Zhang Xiaohua. She quickly walked over to Nun Jing Yi's chair and sat down.
Jing Yi looked at Zhang Xiaohua and then at the surprised crowd in the hall. She asked softly, "Ren Xiaoyao, do you … know Yue Zhuoqun?"
Zhang Xiaohua nodded.
"Oh?" Jing Yi was surprised. "How did you know him?
He is a disciple of Ruijin Hall. You … even if you are an alchemy boy from Distant Fire Hall, you shouldn't have met him! "
Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands and told her everything about her encounter with Yue Zhuoqun. She even told her about Xi Mujun's threat. Finally, she said, "This disciple never saw Senior Yue again …"
"You're lying!"
Jing Gang said sternly, "You killed Zhuoqun when you were testing your martial arts in Emerald Valley!"
"Emerald Valley?
Testing martial arts? "
Zhang Xiaohua was surprised. She explained, "Great Elder, what you said is strange. Emerald Valley is a place where disciples test their martial arts. Only this disciple entered that day. How … how could this disciple see Senior Yue?
And even kill him? "
Chen Chen was already impatient. He frowned and said, "That's right. Great Elder, your words … are a little irrelevant!"
Jing Gang glared at Chen Chen and looked at Zhang Xiaohua. She said fiercely, "Ren Xiaoyao, can you really pat your chest and swear that you were the only one in Emerald Valley?
That you didn't see anyone else? "
"Of course."
Zhang Xiaohua did not hesitate at all. He patted his chest and said, "I, Ren Xiaoyao, swear that I am the only one in Li Cui Valley, and I have not met a second person. If I speak a lie, may the heavens strike me with five bolts of lightning, and may I, Ren Xiaoyao, suffer the pain of being struck by lightning!"
Her words were powerful and her expression did not change at all.
But Jing Gang still shook her head. "It's just a few oaths. You can't take it seriously!"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and asked Jing Yi, "When this disciple entered Emerald Valley that day, I saw that the valley was different from what Zhang Pinger said. I wanted to go back and explain, but I was afraid that Senior Sister Mei Suying would find other problems for this disciple, so I went all the way. Fortunately, I was lucky and found a so-called Ghost Face Mushroom in the innermost part of Emerald Valley. Although this disciple did not know its age, it was already in the innermost part and there was no more. So I braced myself and went back to report.
"But …" Without waiting for Jing Yi to speak, Jing Gang said loudly, "But Mei Suying did see Zhuoqun enter Emerald Valley that day!"
"Huh?"
Zhang Xiaohua was surprised again. She said loudly, "I don't know … What did Senior Brother Yue do in Emerald Valley that day?"
Did Jing Gang need to say what Yue Zhuoqun did?
Just now, Zhang Xiaohua had described the scene of her meeting with Yue Zhuoqun. Then there was Xi Mujun's words. How could everyone not understand the possible relationship between Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Pinger, and Yue Zhuoqun?
How could they not know what Yue Zhuoqun was doing in Emerald Valley?
Chen Chen glared fiercely at Zhang Xiaohua and said in a low voice, "This kid doesn't look attractive. Why … does he attract bees and butterflies?"
Although his voice was soft, everyone in the hall heard it clearly. Zhang Xiaohua's face reddened slightly.
Jing Yi thought for a moment and said, "Tell Zhang Pinger from Distant Fire Palace to come to Mo Xuan Palace."
Then she said, "Mei Suying, come in and talk."
"Yes." A timid voice came from outside the door. The one who came in was Mei Suying. She walked in and looked at the people in the hall. Her eyes flickered. Only when she saw Nun Jing Gang sitting on top did she feel relieved.
After coming forward to greet her, Jing Yi said coldly, "Arranging for Ren Xiaoyao to test his martial arts in Emerald Valley and then having Yue Zhuoqun ambush him, was it you who planned this behind the scenes?"
"Yes, this disciple …" But before she finished speaking, Mei Suying immediately felt that something was wrong. She changed her words and said, "This disciple didn't plan it alone. It was … it was Senior Brother Yue who ordered this disciple to do it!"
Jing Gang moved her body but didn't say anything.
"Good. Tell me the whole story!"
The matter was very simple. Yue Zhuoqun saw that Zhang Xiaohua treated him coldly. Of course, he knew the crux of the matter. He found Mei Suying, who also harbored evil intentions towards Zhang Xiaohua. The timing was also coincidental. It was just in time for the Fragrance Cult's inheritance test. The person in charge of Zhang Xiaohua's martial arts test, Eldest Martial Sister Han Zhuoqi, didn't have time. Thus, she gave this unnecessary test to Mei Suying. Therefore, the two of them worked together to design this unexpected martial arts test. They wanted to take Zhang Xiaohua's life in Ghost Valley.
"You saw with your own eyes that Yue Zhuoqun entered Emerald Valley after Ren Xiaoyao?" Jing Yi asked coldly.
"Yes, this disciple … saw it with her own eyes!" Mei Suying looked at Jing Gang and answered.
"Hmm, then … what color was Yue Zhuoqun's clothes that day?" Jing Yi asked.
"This …" Mei Suying was somewhat hesitant. She whispered, "Senior Martial Brother Yue's qinggong is very strong. This disciple … this disciple didn't see it clearly. It seemed to be … cyan. Oh, no, it should be white …"
"Hehe." Jing Yi sneered. "What color was it?"
"Cyan …" Mei Suying gritted her teeth.
At this moment, Jing Yi raised her head and said, "Let Zhang Pinger come in. Who is the other female disciple?"
Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and saw the indifferent Zhang Pinger and the nervous Shui Linglong come in side by side.
Shui Linglong and Zhang Pinger bowed. "This disciple was working beside Mo Xuan Palace. When I heard Hierarch's summon, I hurried over. May I know what Hierarch is here for?"
"Hmm. Zhang Pinger, tell this Hierarch. A month ago, when my Hierarch's protector disciple Ren Xiaoyao tested his martial arts in Emerald Valley, did he go in alone?"
"Ren Xiaoyao?
Emerald Valley tested his martial arts? "
Zhang Pinger frowned. Her face was slightly red. She looked at Shui Linglong and slightly tilted her head. When she saw Zhang Xiaohua, she couldn't help but get angry.
However, she was still respectful. She said in a deep voice, "On that day, Senior Martial Brother Ren went in alone."
"You didn't see the second person?"
"No!"
"You didn't see Yue Zhuoqun go in?"
"Senior Martial Brother Yue?"
Zhang Pinger's face was red. She was even more surprised. However, she seemed to have realized something. She shook her head. "No, Hierarch. This disciple stayed at the entrance of Emerald Valley the whole day. I didn't see anyone other than Senior Martial Brother Ren go in.
Oh, this is my Senior Martial Sister Shui Linglong. She also accompanied me at the entrance of the valley that day. She can testify. "
"Yes, Hierarch. This disciple Shui Linglong was also at the entrance of Emerald Valley that day. I didn't see anyone go in!"
"That's strange. Lai Cui Valley is shrouded in ghost fog, so it's impossible to come down from above. You can only enter from the valley entrance. If you haven't seen it, how can it be said that Yue Zhuoqun has entered the valley?"
