Faced with everyone's doubts, Pei Xuanzhi just started talking and then handed over his unfinished words to Su Ming.

Su Ming, who received Pei Xuanzhi's signal, stood up, bowed slightly to the crowd, and said:

"Three days ago, Sanyuan Sect's head Cang Shuzi and Elder Bai brought three pieces of news. One is that Sanyuan Sect was attacked by Zizai Sect on the way to Qinghuai City. Two is that the Beihai Sect alliance who came to participate in the trial conference was ambushed by monsters and all members were killed. Three is that on the way to Qinghuai City, traces of another immortal sect being ambushed were found."

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar among the crowd, and they were shocked.

"After learning about this, the academy immediately issued two Immortal Alliance Orders. One was to ask all the registered sects whether they would attend this year. The other was to ask all Taoist friends who were rushing to the conference to enter the city as soon as possible."

At this point, Su Ming's expression also became solemn. "According to the reply, up to now, 17 Taoists who were supposed to enter the city have not entered the city. As to whether they were delayed on the way or met with an accident, it is not certain yet."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall and everyone started talking about it.

"There is such a thing..."

"How dare they plot against the Immortal Sect?"

A discussion broke out in the field, and everyone seemed to agree that it was Zizaimen who was responsible.

Zhao Liyang, who was closest to them, also spoke, and his majestic voice instantly overwhelmed the voices of the crowd behind him.

"The Sanyuan Sect personally experienced this incident. In the opinion of Sect Leader Cang, were all these things done by the Zizai Sect?"

He asked directly, and although they were both leaders, his tone sounded like a condescending interrogation.

Cang Shuzi didn't care and was about to reply to Zhao Liyang, but Bai Wangshu spoke first.

"I had a fight with the leader of the Zizai Sect, and I witnessed with my own eyes that the one-eyed silver wolf that attacked the Beihai Sect was controlled by him. Its strength was astonishing." Perhaps sensing the contempt in Zhao Liyang's words, Bai Wangshu directly took over his words, and his tone was not very good either.

"That Wen Bumian can not only refine pills, but also use the pills to tame monsters. The one-eyed silver wolf that attacked Beihai Gate was an orc that he refined using a human body."

Although this was not her personal experience, Jiang Tingwan saw it so it was what she saw. Now that they are twins, she naturally believes her.

After these words were spoken, not only did everyone in the room talk a lot, but Cang Shuzi also looked at her deeply.

Since that incident, Mu Yunzhong and Jiang Tingwan, the only people who witnessed it, one lost their memory and the other disappeared. Cang Shuzi had no way to ask about it. He thought she didn't know, so he never asked her in detail.

Taming animals doesn't mean anything, after all, the Cangyu Sect was established with this in mind. But if people can be transformed into orcs, it would be a major event that the entire immortal world should be on guard against.

Even Pei Xuanzhi's expression changed.

Su Ming quickly asked, "Why didn't you two mention the matter of refining orcs three days ago?"

Hearing Su Ming's question, Bai Wangshu glanced at him and deliberately said sarcastically: "As the first sect of the immortal sect, Wenhe Academy naturally cannot listen to the one-sided statement of Sanyuan Sect. I also thought that Elder Su would be able to find out the truth in these three days."

Su Ming heard the irony in Bai Wangshu's words, and his expression changed. He explained to everyone:

"After receiving the news from Sanyuan Sect, we immediately went to Cangnan City and verified the matter with Cangyu Sect. However, the Beihai Sect disciple who risked his life to seek help from Cangyu Sect that day had died of serious injuries. Cangyu Sect could only confirm that Beihai Sect was attacked by monster beasts and that Cangyu Sect found a group of monster beasts that were domesticated outside the city. As for the beastmen, they did not mention it."

"Not mentioned?"

Bai Wangshu frowned. Shen Zhui could tell the relationship between him and Jiang Tingwan at a glance, and he had fought with the one-eyed silver wolf before, but he couldn't tell that it was made from the human body?

When Bai Wangshu thought of this, he felt something was wrong.

"It was indeed not mentioned." Su Ming replied affirmatively.

"The Cangyu Sect has been dealing with monsters for many years and is good at controlling them with spiritual techniques. If it is really a monster refined by humans, they should know more about it than us." said someone in the crowd.

"Humph, I think it's clear that the Cang Yu Sect is also involved and is deliberately concealing it."

Suddenly someone in the crowd snorted coldly. While everyone was still discussing, he had already made his own judgment, "How can someone who associates with monsters be a good person? They set up an arena in Cangnan City and invited people to fight monsters. This is not what a reputable and upright sect would do."

When this statement was made, some people felt that it made sense and echoed it.

"You guys are getting off topic. The attack on the Immortal Sect has not been fully investigated yet. Everything is just speculation." Su Ming spoke to comfort them, and this stopped the prejudiced remarks.

However, Zhao Liyang of Ziyang Zhenzong said, "I think this elder's guess makes sense. The Cangyu Sect boasts that its beast-taming skills are unparalleled in the world. If they can't even tell whether it's a human or a beast, it's really suspicious."

Then he glanced at Cang Shuzi and Bai Wangshu and continued, "What's more, this was the news brought by the head of Sanyuan Sect himself. Elder Su Ming's words mean that he doubts that what head of Cang said is false?"

Su Ming was speechless and embarrassed by Zhao Liyang's questions. Even Bai Wangshu was confused by Zhao Liyang's sudden change of attitude.

"Of course, that's not what I meant. It's just that Zizai Sect has only been established for a few years. I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to undertake such a big event alone. There must be a more powerful force behind them." Su Ming explained, and then glanced at Cang Shuzi and Bai Wangshu to show that he didn't mean that.

Hearing this, Zhao Liyang chuckled, making his previous behavior seem more intentional. He then looked around at everyone and announced slowly and solemnly:

"Regardless of whether it was done by Zizai Sect alone, the fact that he refined orcs is not tolerated by the immortals. Ziyang Zhenzong has sent disciples to Zizai Sect to investigate the matter. If they really have evil intentions, Ziyang Zhenzong will disband this so-called Zizai Sect on the spot, and will also follow the clues to find out the mastermind behind it."

Zhao Liyang's words were like the final word, leaving no room for doubt, and were domineering and majestic.

Bai Wangshu realized that his behavior just now was to compete with Wenhe Academy for some kind of authority. He said that he trusted Sanyuan Sect not because he really trusted it, but because Wenhe Academy was hesitant and indecisive in this matter. Then he, Ziyang Zhenzong, had to stand up more firmly and show the power of Ziyang Zhenzong.

Everyone in the place realized this to some extent, and the whole place was silent, with no one daring to say a word.

Finally, it was Wei Tianqing from Jiuxiao Xian Pavilion who spoke up, "Since Cangyu Sect is inevitably suspected in this matter, then did Sanyuan Sect find anything else at the third scene?"

At this time, the only one who dared to speak was Jiuxiao Xian Pavilion.

Wei Tianqing is not only the elder of Jiuxiao Xian Pavilion, but also the next successor appointed by the current sect leader. Although he has not yet taken over, his powers are no different from those of the sect leader, so he is qualified to represent the sect here.

Wei Tianqing did not stand out with the look of a peacemaker, but rather as if he had already discovered the suspicious point a long time ago. He waited until everyone had finished speaking before pointing it out.

Pei Xuanzhi seemed to have finally been triggered by the key words and started the next topic.

"This is the second important thing I want to tell you."

Pei Xuanzhi opened his mouth, and everyone naturally listened respectfully.

"After Sect Leader Cang brought the news to the academy, Elder Su immediately led people to investigate the scene. However, he did not expect that the murderer cleaned up the identity traces of the victim but did not clean up the bloodstains. It was obvious that he deliberately left this half of the scene."

After Pei Xuanzhi said this, most people looked at each other in confusion.

Wei Tianqing took over the conversation naturally, "The purpose of leaving the scene behind is to let us know that a sect has been attacked, so as to arouse our vigilance; the purpose of cleaning up the traces of the victims' identities is to let us guess whether they have appeared in Qinghuai City, or in other words, whether the sect that appeared in Qinghuai City is a real immortal sect?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole crowd was shocked. This was tantamount to telling them that there was a spy among them?

Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Pei Xuanzhi also comforted them: "Don't worry, everyone. Since Wenhe Academy already knows about this matter, it will handle it carefully. In order to avoid hurting the friendship of the Immortal Alliance, please help us to investigate this matter together."

"Don't worry, Dean Pei. This matter involves the entire Immortal Alliance. We will definitely help you with all our strength."

Everyone responded in unison.

The goal was achieved and the meeting ended, but the people who participated in the meeting had different expressions on their faces. They all left Wutong Spiritual Realm in silence. No one knew what each other was thinking.

Cang Shuzi and Bai Wangshu walked out of Wutong Courtyard, glanced at Bai Wangshu beside him, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

Bai Wangshu spoke first, "I know what you want to ask, brother. She and I have reached some kind of agreement. She knows a lot of things that we don't know. It seems that she is on our side at the moment."

She replied nonchalantly, as if she was just stating a fact.

"It seems that after this incident, Junior Sister, you have really come back." Cang Shuzi stared at her deeply. He knew who she was talking about, but did not ask any further questions. He just felt a little relieved.

"Twenty years of madness is enough." A complex look flashed across Bai Wangshu's eyes, like a sigh, or a faint sadness.

Cang Shuzi was slightly stunned, but ultimately said nothing more.

When the two were about to walk out, a middle-aged female voice came from behind and called them.

"Master Cang, please stay!"
