The system also stared at Xie Jibai and noticed Xie Jibai's micro-expressions.

[Ningning, look, that bastard must have discovered something, which is why he stopped pursuing Youmenghua! What a shame! If he had made a move last night, the Demon King wouldn't have been the only one to die.]

Yu Qingning didn't say anything, but unexpectedly noticed that Su Ye's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Okay, okay, then she told the system not to mention Xie Jibai in front of Su Ye. He really regarded Xie Jibai as a love rival, without any falsehood.

It was also at this time that Yu Qingning received a message from Pei Yin, asking her to go to the main hall together.

So, she could only let Su Ye go back to the top of the mountain to wait for her, and walked quickly towards Pei Yin.

*

When the group arrived at the main hall, the heads of the Lin and Yun families were already waiting outside the hall.

Before Pei Yin came, the two had asked each other and confirmed that Pei Yin had only sent a message asking them to come.

The head of the Lin family guessed that Pei Yin asked him to come over, undoubtedly to give an explanation to the Lin family. After Yun Xiao learned about it, he believed that Lin Yue'er's death had nothing to do with the Yun family, and he couldn't understand why Pei Yin asked him to come over.

Especially when they saw Master Kongwang, Yu Jun and others were also there, the two of them became even more confused about the situation.

There was an aura of majesty between Pei Yin's brows. After nodding to the two family heads, he led everyone into the main hall.

Inside the main hall, the atmosphere was solemn.

Pei Yin gestured for everyone to sit down, then slowly spoke: "I summoned the two family heads here today because I have something important to tell you."

Pei Yin paused after speaking, his eyes swept over the Lin family head and the Yun family head, and continued: "Pei Yin has now found out the truth about Lin Yue'er's death."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Lin family felt a tightness in his heart, but he remained calm.

Yun Xiao seemed a little surprised. It was not that Pei Yin found out the truth that surprised him, but Pei Yin's meaningful look made him feel that this matter might have nothing to do with the Yun family.

The Lin family's patriarch clenched his fists and asked solemnly, "Master Pei, I wonder what the truth is? Who killed Yue'er?"

Pei Yin's eyes were like torches as he spoke sternly, "The murderer was the Demon King. Penglai spent three months setting up the Four Seasons Heavenly Gang Demon-Slaying Formation in the small back mountain because he learned the truth. He set up this formation to kill the Demon King and give the Lin family an explanation."

When these words were spoken, the head of the Lin family and several elders were all shocked, their eyes full of disbelief.

"How could Yue'er's death be related to the Demon Emperor?! She and the Demon Emperor had no connection at all, so why would the Demon Emperor kill Yue'er?"

The Lin family's head was agitated. He wanted to find the real culprit, but what was the Demon King's reason for killing people?! The Lin family had never had any grudges against the demon clan.

Pei Yin's face remained calm as he spoke slowly, "Master Lin, I assure you that this matter is absolutely correct. As for the reason why the Demon King killed Lin Yue'er, it was actually related to Yun Mengyao."

When Yun Xiao heard this, his face suddenly changed.

An ominous premonition suddenly arose in my heart.

Yun Mengyao is his daughter and the pride of the Yun family. She has never had any dealings with the demon clan, so how could she be involved in such an incident?

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could Yao'er be involved with the Demon King?!"

When the head of the Lin family heard Yun Mengyao's name, he thought of the fact that Yun Mengyao and Lin Yue'er lived in the same courtyard. However, Yun Mengyao had already made an oath to the Heaven that day, saying that she had nothing to do with the matter. How could the Heaven make a wrong judgment?

But he still pointed at Yun Xiao excitedly and said, "Yun Xiao! If Yue'er's death is related to your Yun family, my Lin family will make your Yun family pay for it with blood!"

Yun Xiao clenched his fists, veins popped on his forehead, and he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

At this moment, he must remain calm and not let anger cloud his reason.

"Lin Ye! Our two families have always been on good terms. Yao'er would never do anything to harm the Lin family! Sect Master Pei, please explain this matter clearly and clear the name of our Yun family!"

Pei Yin's eyes darkened. He hadn't directly mentioned the matter of possession because he was worried that Yun Xiao would not be able to accept it for the time being.

But he still spoke slowly, with a hint of heaviness in his tone: "Master Yun, although this matter involves 'Yun Mengyao', it has nothing to do with the Yun family."

Yun Xiao was stunned: "What does Sect Master Pei mean by this?"

Pei Yin narrowed his eyes and continued, "This matter has to start with 'taking over someone else's body'."

Hearing the word "possession", Yun Xiao stood up from his seat, his eyes full of astonishment, and several elders of the Yun family were also shocked.

They were all smart people. Pei Yin mentioned 'taking over someone else's body' at this time, so who else could the person being taken over be?!

Yun Xiao forced himself to remain calm and stared at Pei Yin.

Pei Yin's expression was serious as he continued, "Speaking of possessing a body, Pei Yin would like to mention someone first. This person is known to both families. She is Ye Hanyue, the daughter of Ye Xin of the Ye family."

"I guess both of you think Ye Hanyue is dead, but Pei Yin wants to tell you that Ye Hanyue is a twin Yuanying."

"When she died, her other Nascent Soul was not in her physical body, which led to the subsequent possession of another body."

"And the person whose body Ye Hanyue possessed was none other than Yun Mengyao, the daughter of the Yun family master."

When Yun Xiao heard this, his face turned pale instantly.

He shook his head in disbelief, his voice trembling, "This is impossible! Yao'er...how could she...be possessed?!"

Pei Yin sighed softly, his voice becoming much gentler: "Master Yun, I know this news comes as a surprise to you, but it is the truth."

"Ye Hanyue has taken over Yun Mengyao's body, but I don't know if the real Yun Mengyao is still alive or if she can ever return to this body again. As long as there is hope, Penglai will do its best."

Even though Pei Yin said so, Yun Xiao clenched his fists and still didn't believe it.

Not letting sadness and anger cloud his mind, he slowly spoke: "Master Pei, do you have any evidence for what you said?"

Pei Yin nodded, his expression stern, and continued, "My two family heads, please listen to what Pei Yin has to say first."

"On the night Ye Hanyue took over Yun Mengyao's body, she happened to be witnessed by Lin Yue'er. Lin Yue'er used the photo stone to record the entire process."

"It is precisely because Lin Yue'er holds the evidence that Ye Hanyue possessed Yun Mengyao's body, and Ye Hanyue is in collusion with the Demon King that she is eager to use the Demon King to eliminate Lin Yue'er to ensure that the secret of the possession is not leaked."

"That day, Ye Hanyue swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao, but she swore it in the name of Yun Mengyao. Naturally, the Heavenly Dao would not punish her, because Lin Yue'er's death had nothing to do with Yun Mengyao."

"As for the evidence that Patriarch Yun wants, the photo stone is still in Ye Hanyue's possession, and she has collected it as a trophy."

"As long as Patriarch Yun gets this photo stone, he will know that everything Pei said is true."

"If Patriarch Yun doesn't believe it, you can ask Pei Yin's little disciple. She once saw the image stone in Ye Hanyue's hand in the dark, and she also saw the image in the image stone."

"The possession of the body is not false. If there is no solid evidence for such a major event, Pei would not have been so hasty to tell you."
