So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Ling Jiuan pondered for a moment, his eyes determined.

She spoke lightly, with a tone that left no room for doubt.

"Let me try again!"

As she spoke, she slowly stood up, with an invisible fighting spirit surrounding her.

Upon hearing this, Lei Tingyi instantly understood Ling Jiuan's meaning and deliberately moved aside to give her enough space to display her skills.

Ling Jiuan looked at him gratefully, then took a deep breath and tightened the Akabane sword in his hand.

Her eyes became unusually sharp.

The next moment, she swung her sword suddenly, and a dazzling sword energy burst out instantly!

Cut out with one sword.

"One sword breaks all laws!"

She let out a low shout, and the sword energy struck the restriction with the force of thunder.

The restriction felt threatened and began to tremble violently.

After a while, the restriction finally couldn't withstand the impact of the sword energy and broke open.

Ling Jiuan was delighted, she knew she had found the key to breaking the ban.

She gripped the Akabane sword tightly and slashed out again.

"One sword opens the gate of heaven!"

She let out a low roar again, and the Red Feather Sword in her hand turned into the key to the Heavenly Gate, completely breaking the restriction in an instant.

The sword energy overflowed, covering the entire study in sword light.

The next moment, the restriction was broken.

Ling Jiuan showed joy on her face, she knew she had succeeded.

She looked at Lei Tingyi.

"Okay, we have the evidence."

Lei Tingyi was also excited when he heard this.

He walked over and carefully took out the wooden box.

The box was filled with various letters and keepsakes, each of which could prove that Cheng Xuan was a demon cultivator and was in collusion with the demon cultivator gang.

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

Lei Tingyi solemnly handed the wooden box to Ling Jiuan.

"Keep it safe. This is our important evidence."

Ling Jiuan nodded, carefully took the wooden box and put it away.

The two continued walking forward, but saw a strange pool not far away.

The pool is not big, but there seems to be something hanging above it, emitting a faint light.

The two looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and curiosity.

They walked over quickly, wanting to see clearly what was hanging over the pool.

When they got closer, they found an ancient bronze mirror hanging above the pool. The surface of the bronze mirror was mottled, as if it had gone through countless years.

"what is this?"

Ling Jiuan asked with a frown. She reached out to touch the bronze mirror but was stopped by Lei Tingyi.

"Be careful, this bronze mirror looks a little weird, we shouldn't touch it easily."

Lei Tingyi looked at the bronze mirror warily.

The two walked around the pool, trying to find more clues about the bronze mirror.

They found that the surroundings of the pool were engraved with ancient runes. These runes were glowing with a faint light and seemed to have some mysterious connection with the bronze mirror.

"I seem to have seen these runes somewhere..."

Ling Jiuan pondered for a moment and suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, I've seen these runes in the ancient books in the Ling Family Library. They seem to be related to an ancient formation!"

When Lei Tingyi heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He looked at the bronze mirror with mixed feelings.

If this bronze mirror is really related to the formation, then what is behind it?

"Should we give it a try?"

Ling Jiuan looked at Lei Tingyi, eager to try.

Lei Tingyi pondered for a moment and finally nodded.

"Okay, let's give it a try. But be careful, if anything goes wrong, we have to retreat immediately."

Lei Tingyi gathered his spiritual power, condensed it in his palm, and then lightly struck the bronze mirror.

However, unexpectedly, the bronze mirror was so fragile that it shattered at the first blow, and the runes on it also faded away.

In an instant, the original pool turned into a platform, on which lay a man dressed in the clothes of a Cheng family disciple.

To be more precise, it was a corpse, because there was no sign of life in the man and he had obviously been dead for a long time.

Ling Jiuan and Lei Tingyi looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

They didn't expect that there was such a secret hidden behind this bronze mirror, and they didn't expect to find the body of a Cheng family disciple here.

"Who is this person? Why did he die here?"

Ling Jiuan frowned and asked, she walked forward to examine the body, trying to find some clues.

Lei Tingyi also walked forward and observed the surrounding environment carefully.

He noticed that there were still some traces of fighting around the platform, obviously a fierce battle had taken place here.

However, these traces seem to be quite old.

"Looking at the traces here, this person should have been killed by someone."

Lei Tingyi said in a deep voice.

"Moreover, the person who killed him must be very powerful."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, he felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

"We need to get out of here as soon as possible."

"What happened here has exceeded our expectations. We must bring the evidence back to Spark City as soon as possible to expose the Cheng family's conspiracy."

She had a feeling that if they stayed here any longer, they would both die.

Lei Tingyi nodded, he understood what Ling Jiuan meant.

They are now in danger and must leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

Before leaving, Lei Tingyi felt a surge of compassion in his heart.

He looked at the body of the Cheng family disciple and decided to bury it as a sign of respect.

So, he raised his hand, gathered his energy and spiritual power, and gently turned the corpse over.

However, when he saw the other person's face, he was stunned.

He was familiar with this face, it was Cheng Xuan's elder brother.

The original young master of the Cheng family—Cheng Ye!

He and Cheng Ye have no friendship, but the Cheng family's bounty warrants have spread all over the country in recent years.

He had seen it once or twice.

"Why is it him?"

Lei Tingyi muttered to himself, his expression becoming extremely complicated.

He didn't expect to see Cheng Ye's body here, and he didn't expect that Cheng Ye would end up like this.

When Ling Jiuan heard Lei Tingyi's words, he looked over subconsciously.

When she saw Cheng Ye's face, she was also stunned.

Although she was not familiar with Cheng Ye, she knew his position in the Cheng family.

Now seeing Cheng Ye's tragic death here, she felt mixed emotions.

"who is it?"

She couldn't help but ask, wanting to know who could have caused Lei Tingyi to have such a big reaction.

Lei Tingyi looked solemn.

"It's Cheng Xuan. It seems that he has spared no effort to cover up his conspiracy."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, a strong sense of anger and sadness surged in his heart.

She didn't expect Cheng Xuan to be so cruel that he even spared his own elder brother.

She looked at Cheng Ye's body and suddenly understood something.

Cheng Ye might have died before Cheng Xuan became a magic cultivator, and becoming a magic cultivator was the choice Cheng Xuan made in order to successfully ascend to the position of head of the family.

After all, Cheng Ye most likely died in the fight for the position of patriarch.
