I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

"Master, what you are saying is that I always disappoint you! But I really don't know why you came to this sword tomb and grabbed me to question and scold me. If I did something wrong, please let me know. I will definitely change for the better."

"You follow the etiquette, but you don't speak the truth. I really misjudged you!"

Zhenren Yanshan was really angry and struck out with one palm, knocking Lingyao to the ground.

Lingyao just happened to land at the feet of "Xu Fengxi". She looked at "Xu Fengxi" with resentment, barely supported her body and stood up. She did not even wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and still stood respectfully towards Master Yanshan.

"Ahem, Master, I... I am telling the truth. I... I really... I really don't know why you are so angry. If... If I did something wrong, please let me know. I will have no complaints."

Lingyao kept insisting on this sentence and refused to admit it.

Master Yanshan took a deep breath, and couldn't help but point his trembling finger at Lingyao. He was so angry that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"Okay, okay, since you don't want to tell me, I'll tell you! Are you connected to the demons?"

Lingyao shuddered slightly when she heard this, clenched her teeth tightly, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, "No."

Xiangliu never revealed any flaws. He said there were no flaws. As long as I don’t say it, no one will know.

nobody!

My master is lying to me. I must not tell him. If I tell him, I will die!

She has finally come here, she doesn’t want to die, she doesn’t want to die!

Ji Yanli glanced at Lingyao, then at Master Yanshan, and finally looked down at Gu Lan in his arms, and whispered, "Master Yanshan, are you...cleaning up the family?"

Despite Lingyao's denials, Ji Yanli believed in Master Yanshan. With their level of cultivation, it would be much easier to see through the tricks of the demons.

"This is their Tianyan Sect's business. I just want my junior brother to be safe and sound. I don't want to care about anything else." Gu Lan didn't show any emotion. She was almost possessed by another's body just now, and there were still burn marks on her face.

The moment her body was possessed, the fog in her eyes was cleared.

All the memories of that day's competition came flooding back, and she recovered that fragment of memory.

Very good, she wanted them dead, and she should have done it, but now it seems unnecessary.

Now that Master Yanshan has made it clear, there is no way he would let them go.

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it." Master Yanshan took a deep breath again, "Let me tell you one by one, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it.

"You thought you hid well, but you didn't know you had exposed a lot. Since Yongle Town, you have become more rude and perverse, and treated your fellow disciples cruelly and coldly. When you were participating in the competition selection in the same sect, you broke the hands and feet of your fellow disciples, and another disciple was seriously injured. Although you argued that it was a mistake, I, your master, believe that the friendship between fellow disciples should not be hurt and should be cherished. This is what I taught you. You have destroyed this friendship more than once, and you have not changed despite repeated teachings. This is one of the reasons.

“Secondly, during the sect competition, traces of demons appeared in Xuantian Sword Sect. I went with them and discovered your aura. Can you tell me why your aura and the demon aura coexisted harmoniously and appeared at the same time?

"Third, although you used the water curtain to block your way when you were competing with Gu Lan, Wan Jianying, the head of Xuantian Sword Sect, was keenly aware of the abnormality. At that time, he took my presence into consideration and did not react on the spot. He informed me afterwards and asked me to pay attention. Only then did I carefully list all your abnormalities and suspect you.

"Indeed, you have not lost your mind and are still practicing swordsmanship diligently. You are an excellent disciple, but your behavior has become more and more weird, perverse, and cruel. All the disciples who fought against you in the sect competition were seriously injured. How do you make me feel about all these things? How can I face people from other sects? And how can you justify these things? Are you going to insist that you didn't know? Are you innocent?"

Lingyao laughed and finally wiped the corner of her mouth, "Master, I will not defend what I did. The only thing I want to defend is the competition. How can I win if I don't try my best? How can I please you if I don't win?

“Master, Master, you value the sect and regard the sect’s honor as above all else. Although we are your disciples, if we cannot bring honor to the sect, we are no better than rags and will not be in your eyes. There are many talented people in the sect. If I don’t use extraordinary means to let you see them, will you think of giving me some resources?

"Master, when you were indignant and scolding me, didn't you feel that you were guilty?"

Master Yanshan didn't expect her to think this way, and he was so angry that he vomited blood.

"You! You are talking nonsense! Although I am a bit harsh on my disciples, I am not really like that. I... I have a sharp tongue but a soft heart!"

Master Yanshan was so angry that he was fuming.

Yes, it was just as Lingyao said, he valued the sect's honor very much, more than heaven and earth, and he was also very harsh on his disciples, but he would never treat incompetent disciples as rags!

Lingyao was filled with dissatisfaction towards Master Yanshan, and snorted with disdain when she heard this.

"Oh, Master, you want to save face, so you say outside that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, but is that really the case?"

Master Yanshan shook his head. He didn't expect that his disciple Lingyao had such a big problem in his heart. This was definitely not a good thing for cultivation, but he had never seen it!

This was his failure! A huge failure!

In this case, it is largely his fault that Lingyao is in this situation today.

With a sigh, Master Yanshan waved his hands, "Forget it, forget it. You have deep resentment in your heart, so I won't waste words with you. Let me ask you again, have you ever betrayed your master and colluded with the demons?"

Regarding this issue, Lingyao remained consistent, gritting her teeth and refusing to admit it.

"I do not have……"

Master Yanshan also lost his patience, "Humph, we'll know if it exists or not after we check it out!"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger and golden light shot towards Lingyao.

Lingyao turned around quickly, but found that a talisman had been stuck on her leg and she couldn't move at all.

Looking up, she saw Gu Lan's fingers were stained with blood. He had drawn a few blood talismans, grinned, and shook them at her in his hand.

Anyone who harms my fellow apprentice shall die!

Gu Lan looked back at her, not hiding his murderous intent at all.

Lingyao was startled, but was brought back to her senses by the sudden pain.

The golden light shone on Lingyao and turned into golden threads, which bound Lingyao's body like spider silk.

Master Yanshan did not move his eyebrows, but hooked his fingers, and a piece of silver thread was hooked out from between Lingyao's eyebrows.

"Ahhh, it hurts, Master, please forgive me!" Lingyao's face was covered in sweat due to the pain, her eyebrows and eyes were twisted, and she looked ugly and embarrassed.

Master Yanshan remained unmoved. He waved his hand, and the silver thread floated back and fell into Master Yanshan's hands.

A memory melted into his palm like water, and the memory was read.

Almost at the same time as he read the text, Master Yanshan staggered back half a step.

He murmured, "I didn't expect it to be true?!"
