Chapter 94: Wuji Sect Leader Enters the Game
Yun Yueqing walked slowly to the center of the meeting hall. "If I really intended to harm the six of you, I probably wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to bring you back to the Jingyuan Sect and provide assistance to the two seriously injured elders."
The leader of the Jiyin Sect opened his mouth, but found that he could no longer utter a word in rebuttal.
His throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, and he could only make a faint "ho ho" sound.
Sect Leader Wuji also walked to the center of the meeting hall step by step.
His voice was steady and powerful. "In that case, we must return to Dark Moon Lake. Otherwise, it won't be enough to clear Sect Leader Yun's name, nor will it be enough to investigate the truth behind the zombie wave. The major sects cannot afford to lose their elite disciples and elders! And all their resources in vain."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Jiyin Sect's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hand violently, interrupting the words of the Wuji Sect's head.
His body trembled slightly, his eyes filled with fear and unwillingness. "No! The last time we went to Dark Moon Lake, all six of us were injured, big or small. That Dark Moon Lake is like a bottomless abyss, swallowing up all life and hope. Going there again? It will undoubtedly leave us with no way to survive!"
As he spoke, he clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, and a gleam of resistance flashed in his eyes.
Sect Leader Wuji smiled slightly, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he slowly walked to Yunyue's side.
He said softly, "Master Yun, you see, during our last trip to Dark Moon Lake, you were the only one who escaped unscathed. Isn't this destiny, making you the key to solving all these mysteries?"
"This time, with your wise and courageous guide, we will surely return safely. Not only will we clear up the misunderstanding, but we will also uncover the secrets behind Dark Moon Lake."
Yun Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes like frost, and asked calmly, "What's the benefit of me going?"
Sect Leader Wuji shook his head slightly, his tone carrying a certain authority that brooked no resistance.
"Master Yun, you're being a bit too polite. Benefits? Need I even explain? Clearing the grievances of the Jingyuan Sect and restoring its prestige is the greatest benefit."
"Furthermore, once the secrets of Dark Moon Lake are revealed, all sects will be able to obtain both the secret manuals and rare spiritual treasures. This kind of opportunity is not something that anyone can come across."
"Don't you agree? Even if there's no benefit, you have to go, because what's at stake isn't just your own innocence, Yunyue's. It's also the honor and disgrace of the entire Jingyuan Sect."
Xiao Yi, who was standing next to Yun Yueqing, had a look of impatience on his face, and finally couldn't stand listening any longer.
He took a step forward suddenly, his voice as cold as the wind piercing the meeting hall: "Since that's the case, there are so many benefits, so it's better for you Xuantian to go!"
"Master Wuji, you've been talking so much nonsense. Why don't you lead the team yourself and let us witness your bravery? Master Yun has already faced danger many times, and now you're asking her to do it alone. You're really calculating!"
Upon hearing this, the leader of the Jiyin Sect's face flashed with anger, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous because of Xiao Yirao's face.
"Young Master Xiao said that Sect Leader Yun was in danger? Humph, if she hadn't been so determined to go to Dark Moon Lake to find out what was going on, why would we have ended up like this?"
"Besides, she was the one who was unharmed, and we were the ones who were seriously injured. How come I didn't see where she was in danger?"
Yun Yueqing curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer, her eyes as sharp as torches, staring directly at the leader of the Jiyin Sect.
"Why did I go to Darkmoon Lake? It's because you wrongly accused me of being connected to the zombie wave and attempting to overthrow the peace of the major sects!"
"How could I be in danger? You went crazy and fainted in Dark Moon Lake. Did you crawl back here on your own?"
In fact, Yun Yueqing asked the bastard who was at odds with her to carry the dog back, but the dog had already been killed.
Now that there is no evidence, she can say whatever she wants, but no matter what, it was Yun Yueqing's order that allowed them to return safely.
"Hmph, if I hadn't carried you back here, you would have already become the ghosts of Darkmoon Lake. Do you really think you can still stand here and argue with me safely?"
"So this is how you, the Jiyin Sect, treat your savior."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Yun Yueqing's tone, and her eyes were like sharp swords piercing at the leader of the Jiyin Sect.
The head of the Jiyin Sect had a dark face, and the elders beside him looked at each other, with a hint of panic in their eyes.
Xiao Yirao's eyes were sharp as he strode to Yun Yueqing's side, scanning the people present with a sharp gaze.
"You know, I only reluctantly went to rescue the leaders of the Yuling Sect and the Wuying Sect at Miss Yun's insistence."
There was a hint of joking in his words, yet he maintained his authority.
"In order to save those two, she was put in a lot of trouble by me, and even risked her life. Now, you are here questioning and slandering her in every possible way. It's really chilling."
The leaders of Wuji Sect and Jiyin Sect hung their heads like eggplants hit by frost.
The head of the Jiyin Sect spoke weakly, his voice filled with helplessness and confusion: "Then...what should we do?"
The atmosphere in the meeting hall was stagnant for a moment.
Yun Yueqing broke the silence, "I already know why I was the only one who was not controlled by that strange power at Dark Moon Lake that day."
The Wuji Sect leader and the Jiyin Sect leader asked in unison, "Why?"
Their eyes were filled with urgency and confusion, as if they were waiting for an answer that could solve all the mysteries.
Yun Yueqing glanced around. "Because there were seven of you, an odd number. You were fighting two against two, each fighting your own battles, your minds in a state of confusion. I was the only one left alone, and luckily I wasn't affected by your chaotic thoughts. That's why I was able to stay clear-headed and not be controlled by that strange power."
The leader of the Jiyin Sect frowned and asked in disbelief, "Is it that simple?"
His voice echoed in the meeting hall, carrying a hint of reluctance and confusion.
Sect Leader Wuji secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as if the foul air accumulated in his chest was instantly blown away by a breeze.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a relieved smile inadvertently appeared at the corner of his mouth.
That smile seemed particularly deep and complex under the dim candlelight in the meeting hall.
He gently stroked the sparse beard on his chin, his eyes moving back and forth between Yun Yueqing and Xiao Yirao, as if he was re-evaluating the situation before him.
Yun Yueqing keenly caught the subtle movements of Sect Leader Wuji, and her eyes suddenly became sharp.
She tilted her head slightly, and a barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, which contained a hint of sarcasm and disdain.
Sect Leader Wuji's fingers gently stroked his chin, each stroke seeming to carry some calculation, and his sparse beard was faintly visible in the dim light.
Of course, the truth is not that simple. These are all made up by Yun Yueqing in order to make Master Wuji let down his guard.
After all, when Yun Yueqing and that bastard were present, the number was also an even number. Yun Yueqing had already verified the issue of odd and even numbers at that time, and the conclusion was that it had nothing to do with that.
