Before everyone could react, the elders of the Jingyuan Sect arrived late with a group of disciples.

"The 27th chief elder of the Jingyuan Sect leads all the disciples to respectfully welcome the new leader, Yun Yueqing!" The leading elder, Zhong Gu, clasped his hands together and bowed deeply.

As he finished speaking, the other elders and disciples followed suit. For a moment, the judgment hall was filled with the sound of people kneeling in unison, which was magnificent and moving.

"Greetings to the Young Master—"

"You are late, I hope the young master will forgive me."

Yun Yueqing straightened her chest and put her hands behind her back, pretending to be serious: "No need to be polite, you came at the right time."

The sounds of fighting outside the hall gradually died down, and several elders with unfathomable cultivation abilities filed into the Judgment Hall from various entrances.

Each elder has the other major elders of Xuantian Sect under his command.

"It's true that your Xuantian Sect is not short of geniuses, but don't forget that our Jingyuan Sect is not short of elders."

"If a fight really breaks out, you won't get even a single bit of advantage from us old guys."

Elder Zhong Gu's sonorous and powerful voice echoed throughout the entire courtroom.

Before Venerable Xukong retired from the world, the Jingyuan Sect had always been the leader of the three sects and seven schools. Now that Venerable Xukong has been in seclusion for more than a thousand years, the Xuantian Sect has risen and become the leader of the new sects.

In terms of strength, the Jingyuan Sect is like a lean camel that is bigger than a horse. If they have to fight, the Xuantian Sect will definitely lose.

Sect Leader Wuji pondered over it again and again, his attitude softening slightly. "I can give Jingyuan Sect some face, but you Jingyuan Sect shouldn't be so decisive. Yun Yueqing's crime has a significant impact on our Xuantian Sect."

"The death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of life cannot be escaped. If you insist on taking her away, you must give up all your cultivation skills and give an explanation to the Xuantian Sect."

Elder Zhong Gu was about to retort, but Yun Yue raised her hand to stop him. "Then I'd like to hear what I've done wrong."

Yun Yueqing didn't want the two factions to go to war. Once the war started, even if they won, the losses would be immeasurable.

Wei Xinran's eyes were red as he looked at Yun Yueqing with disappointment, and spoke as if he had made a great decision.

"You severely injured Junior Sister Wen in the arena competition, stole the life-saving spirit stones of the disaster victims, and colluded with the Demon Sect to kill the sect's spirit beasts to practice evil magic. Which of these things was not done by you?"

"With all the evidence and witnesses, what else can you say?"

"Are you blind? Wen Chuning gave me the Soul-Breaking Powder during the arena competition. The wound on my shoulder has rotted away. And now look at your dear junior sister. You can't even find any injuries with a magnifying glass."

Facing Yun Yueqing's direct gaze, Wen Chu Ning didn't dare to look directly at her and timidly hid behind Wei Xinran.

"The charge of stealing spirit stones is even more ridiculous. It was clearly the guard who stole the spirit stones. I kindly filled the gap, but I got bitten back. If you don't believe me, you can go to the supply pavilion and check the records. The truth will be revealed."

The guard who was named was so frightened that he collapsed to his knees, kowtowed repeatedly, "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have wronged Senior Sister Yun. I beg for forgiveness, Master."

"Shut up first, I haven't finished yet. You said I killed the sect's spirit beasts and practiced evil magic. A few months ago, the plague broke out and I was afraid of being infected and no one helped me.

I kindly cleared my yard for the spirit beasts to recuperate in isolation, but the plague devoured their flesh and blood. You saw it and spread rumors that I was practicing evil. If you don't believe me, you can ask the animal farm about what happened.

"Wei Xinran, you're such a liar. You said you have witnesses and evidence. I'm curious, where are these witnesses and evidence?"

"I..." Wei Xinran couldn't produce any evidence and was a little embarrassed to speak for a moment.

"Then let me ask again, will you, the Xuantian Sect, also give me an explanation for slandering me without any basis?"

"It's totally unreasonable. You didn't do this, so why are you admitting guilt? You're admitting to these crimes that aren't your fault out of anger.

Confusing right and wrong seriously affects the impartiality of the Court of Inquiry. Even if the Xuantian Sect refuses to give you an explanation, it is still a reasonable move."

Wei Xinran remained unashamed and confidently accused Yun Yueqing of her actions.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Yueqing sneered and looked at Wei Xinran with sharp eyes.

"You're truly a dog with a tangled mouth. Your court neither investigated nor collected evidence. Instead, you came right out of the gate and pinned all the charges on me, relying solely on your own judgment."

"Since you've all made up your mind, what's the point of me defending myself? Your Xuantian Sect is a disgrace to the three sects and is unworthy of being called an upright sect!"

Wei Xinran's fingers trembled with anger as he pointed at Yun Yueqing fiercely, "You... you must stop being so unreasonable."

"I will argue even if it's unreasonable, but why should I let it go when it's right?"

[Ding! The male protagonist's mentality is detected to be damaged]

[Mastery of Fengchen Jue Nian is at its maximum, and level of comprehension is: elementary]

Suddenly, an unprecedented spiritual power surged around her body, gradually condensing into substance and transforming into brilliant rays of light, flowing endlessly across her body.

Yun Yueqing's body slowly floated in the air, and everyone looked up at her.

"Yun Yueqing is worthy of being the descendant of our master. He has already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage just after turning a hundred years old."

Xiao Yi clapped his hands around his folding fan and applauded repeatedly.

"This... How is it possible? How could a young girl like you possibly break through to the Nascent Soul stage? I've been practicing diligently for three thousand years before I was able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."

The presiding judge of the court was so angry that he gnashed his teeth and wanted to beat his chest and stamp his feet.

[Ding! Successfully broke through the Nascent Soul stage. New mission identified. Inquire about the cause of death of the Jingyuan Sect leader.]

"Huh? What do you mean? Didn't the head of the Jingyuan Sect abdicate and retire? Is there something else going on?"

[After the mission is successful, the sister's life can be extended]

"No? I'm healthy, so why do I need to prolong my life to survive?"

[Because according to the original plot, the heroine should have died. ]

[Every second of your life now depends on completing system tasks to prolong your life and achieve the effect of changing your destiny.]

"Your system is really a rip-off for your mother. My life in the modern world was miserable enough, and now you dragged me into this book world and don't let me enjoy life properly. You just torture me."

"Then how long can my last mission extend my life?"

【half year】

"Fortunately, there's still time. I'm a lifesaver. It's just a mission. It can't be a problem for a genius like me."

The head of the Wuji sect sat in the hall, commanding arrogantly, "Yun Yueqing must have cultivated the Way of Mercilessness to have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage so quickly. As long as you hand over the secret method, my Xuantian sect will forgive your past and let you go."

"Old man, you are confused. The Xuantian Sect belongs to the Sword Sect and practices swordsmanship. The Jingyuan Sect practices Taoism. This Wuqing Dao is not your Sword Sect secret book. I will return your sixth uncle's old pants to you."

Before he could finish his words, the usually calm Wuji Sect Leader became furious. He swept his sleeve across the table, and the teacup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"You... why do you speak to Master like that?" Wei Xinran looked extremely disappointed.

"I respect you, so of course I call you Master. But you've repeatedly disregarded our relationship and put me to death. I'm lucky I didn't call you a rotten old man. What else do you want to be called?"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up in the judgment hall and the space was distorted. This was a sign that Master Wuji was about to take action.

Seeing this, Yun Yueqing smiled and looked calm.
