So what! Are you going to kill me?

These elders all knew Jin Cancan, and they all looked at Xie Sheng with angry eyes.

"Aren't you going to give us an explanation? How could an outer disciple of your Tianping Sword Sect be mixed up with the Exiles?"

"Aren't the outer disciples out for training? How do you manage your disciples in the Tianping Sword Sect?!"

"Xie Sheng! Normally, your sect relies on the prestige of Xie Beijianzun to act tough and don't care about our face at all. Now you don't know how to judge people and accept such a scum. You will suffer the consequences. You should clean up the mess yourself!"

Under so much pressure, Xie Sheng remained unmoved. He said coldly, "The matter is not over yet, don't rush to accuse my sect's disciples."

Although he was unsure, he was still somewhat confident in his ability to judge people. Before the truth came out, he was willing to believe Jin Cancan.

Tan Wei was extremely angry. He pointed at Xie Sheng with a trembling finger, almost poking it into Xie Sheng's eyes: "If anything happens to Pei Yao, I will lead all the disciples in the sect to crush your Tianping Sword Sect to the ground!"

Xie Sheng did not answer, but stared at the only mirror with a frown.

In the mirror, Jin Cancan was working very hard to drag several disciples into the array that had been prepared in advance. He ignored the scolding from Lin Yanqiu and the others, and approached Heifeng in a very servile manner, saying flatteringly, "Can I put it there?"

Heifeng nodded slightly, very satisfied with Jin Cancan's performance: "Well done, now there is only one last thing left."

"What's the matter?" Jin Cancan asked.

"Stand in the formation." Hei Feng stared at her, his tone gentle, but his words revealed a ruthlessness that would not tolerate any argument: "Don't you want to learn the formation? Only by entering the formation can you understand the true meaning."

The gray cloak who had been silent could not help but take a step forward: "Master, she..."

"Why? You want to personally escort her into the battle formation?" Hei Feng asked with a smile, "After just a few days of getting along, you've developed sympathy for your 'little sister'?"

The man in the gray cloak suddenly shut up and remained silent for a while before his tone returned to being cold: "Disciple doesn't dare."

Hei Feng said indifferently: "Go ahead."

The Gray Cloak personally led Jin Cancan closer to the Soul Casting Formation and said softly, "Master hates betrayers. You betrayed your sect and friends. You have no way to survive from the beginning."

Jin Cancan nodded slightly and asked, "Can I hug you before you go in?"

Gray Cloak was stunned: "...What?"

The golden and inky black eyes were filled with a heart-warming tenderness. Her eyes seemed to penetrate the gray cloak and fell on his eyelashes like a feather: "I never thought of betrayal, I just wanted to live."

"You and I are of the same kind, and you are the only one who can make me feel at ease. My last wish is to hug you, just like hugging myself."

The man in the gray cloak stood there in a daze, nervous and at a loss. The golden attack that had been planned for a long time accurately hit his heart, which was still warm.

It turns out that he is not the only one who feels this way! She feels the same way as he does! She has a lonely soul just like him!

But....he couldn't disobey Heifeng's orders.

So he gave Jin Cancan a hug solemnly and gently.

Jin Cancan patted his back gently, her thick and curled eyelashes hiding the cold light in her eyes.

The bait has been taken.

The Gray Cloak always walks with his back slightly hunched, which is a subconscious reaction to be ready to defend against unknown attacks at any time. His footsteps are heavy and hesitant, and every step is cautious.

When she deliberately communicated with him, Gray Cloak would always turn his head away. Even with a cloak covering him, he did not dare to look her in the eye. Even in response to the most ordinary greetings, Gray Cloak's response seemed stiff and nervous - he was not used to this kind of friendly communication.

In a crowd, he is used to staying in a corner, trying not to attract attention.

When she was bandaging Gray Cloak's wound, she could clearly feel his fear and defensiveness. Such simple closeness seemed like a threat to him.

Even though he is deeply trusted by Black Wind and holds power second only to Black Wind, Gray Cloak is still lonely, inferior and full of doubts.

Tear off his cold outer skin, and you will find his bright red interior is sweet and delicious.

The first time she saw him, Jin Cancan had already completely decomposed the personality of the gray cloak.

Heifeng looked at them coldly from afar and sneered in an imperceptible manner.

The entire soul-casting formation is circular in shape. The moment Jin Cancan stepped into the formation, the entire formation emitted a dazzling light. The black and white lights intertwined with each other. The black part was as deep as the endless night, as if it could suck people's souls into it, while the white part was dazzlingly bright, with golden light flowing in between. The Yin-Yang fish pattern in the formation began to slowly rotate, and mysterious runes lit up one by one from the center to the outside. They seemed to have life, swimming along a specific trajectory, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations.

The disciples trapped in the formation showed despair on their faces. Their desire to survive prompted them to struggle continuously. However, Hei Feng stopped them with a few words: "The Soul Forging Formation has been activated. If you leave the formation range without permission, you will be immediately annihilated."

"For the sake of my 'good disciple' Jin Cancan, I am willing to tell you how to stop the formation."

"Within half an hour, if an equal number of people stand on the other side of the formation, the formation will be temporarily stopped."

"But as long as one person in the formation leaves the secret realm or leaves the formation, the Soul Forging Formation will be activated instantly."

After saying the last sentence, Heifeng led a group of cloaked disciples to the other end of the secret realm and ignored them.

As they left, the disturbed photo stone resumed its communication function.

Outside the secret realm, the other half of the blackened photographic mirror regained its image, and the elders sent messages to the other disciples who had not been captured yet, asking them to go and rescue their fellow disciples.

Inside the formation, Jin Cancan quickly untied several ropes that had been taught to him personally, and returned their identity cards one by one.

"Where is your ID card?" Lin Yanqiu asked her with a frown.

"It was taken away." Jin Cancan answered honestly.

Heifeng held the badges of everyone else. Lin Yanqiu and the other four were the last to arrive. Before they could hand in their badges after the gray cloak was taken away, Jin Cancan took advantage of the hug to secretly take them away.

"What are you doing?!" Someone from another sect said with a pale face, "Are you going to kill all of us?!"

Jin Cancan scratched his ears and said, "I told you, it's not worth coming back for these idiots."

They could have just crushed the sign and left the secret realm, but they put themselves in danger for an insignificant person. She really couldn't understand why.

Sun Nongqiao was helping others untie the ropes: "Others are fine, but I will never abandon my own sect's companions."

"That's a nice thing to say! Your ID cards haven't been taken away, so it's just a thought to get away! If the Soul Forging Formation is really going to be activated, will you stay here and be buried with us?!"
