Zhou Jingyue looked stunned, as if he had been cast under a spell.

This conversation happened not long ago, so he naturally remembered it.

But there were only him and Aunt Xin in the room, so how could Lin Xuxi hear it?

Zhou Jingyue looked at Rong Xin in surprise, his eyes seemed to be asking: What's going on?

"At that time, I was suffering from an attack of erysipelas and felt unwell. I wanted to use the sound stone to tell your second senior brother some things. Unexpectedly, Xin'er suddenly sent me a sound transmission note. She didn't say anything, just asked me to listen."

"I didn't expect to hear all this." Lin Xuxi sighed, "And I accidentally stumbled upon this and left evidence."

"Zhou Jingyue, as a disciple of Fushan, you actually dared to poison your master's wife! Where did you get the courage from?" Lin Xuxi said in a deep voice.

"I!" Zhou Jingyue was frightened by the momentum and took a step back, but bumped into the disciple behind him. He forced himself to say, "I just wanted to teach you a lesson. It's because you can't tolerate Aunt Xin that I... Anyway, if what you did wasn't so unbearable for me to watch, I wouldn't have poisoned you!"

He didn't know how to explain it, but he still felt that he was not wrong and it was all Lin Xuxi's fault.

Yan Chuhua pulled back the hand that was supporting Rong Xin and closed his mouth.

Poisoning an elder, no matter what the reason, is a heinous crime and must be severely punished.

He probably won't have the chance to get the ten thousand year old cinnabar he was looking for.

"Third-grade poison, gnawing at the bones and burning the heart. Zhou Jingyue, you are so cruel, yet you still don't think you're wrong?" Lin Xuxi showed an expression of disbelief, frowning and saying with pained concern, "Zhou Jingyue poisoned an elder, and is punished with one hundred lashes of the Soul Refining Whip. Yan Chuhua, as a senior brother, failed to properly guide the disciple's cultivation, and is punished with five days of self-reflection in the water prison."

"As for you, Xin'er..." Lin Xuxi looked at Rong Xin again, "You're too doting on them, but it's not your fault. And this time, you've shown me the true meaning of the matter. You've made me see Zhou Jingyue for who he is. I have a portion of ten thousand year old cinnabar, and I'll have someone deliver it to you later."

"Okay, I still have to go make some medicine for Xin'er. Let's all go..."

Lin Xuxi gracefully withdrew and left, and no one saw a flash of golden light between Zhou Jingyue's eyebrows.

Everyone was a little dazed. They didn't expect to witness such a thing.

Everyone knows that Zhou Jingyue has always been favored, so he is fearless.

But they could never have imagined that Zhou Jingyue would actually poison his master's wife.

Rong Xin was also in a daze, because the fake heaven in her mind told her directly that her reputation value had dropped to 45.

God!

How long did it take her to accumulate one point of reputation? In the blink of an eye, four points were deducted from her. Lin Xuxi, I will kill you!

When she suppressed her anger, she found that Zhou Jingyue was looking at her with a hurt expression.

"Yue'er, it's my fault." Rong Xin was a little panicked for a moment, holding Zhou Jingyue's hand and explaining, "I wanted to tell my sister about my serious injury, but then you came over and I forgot about it because of the headache. I didn't expect my sister to leave a message."

She was extremely upset. Lin Xuxi had an attack of erysipelas and was so irritated by her that she was about to explode. How could she still have the mind to slowly leave behind evidence?

"It's okay." Zhou Jingyue forced a smile, "Aunt Xin, you should go and rest first."

"Don't go and accept the punishment. When I recover from my injuries, I will go to my sister and take the punishment for you. This is all my fault."

Rong Xin is cute, but she looks aggrieved when she cries.

Zhou Jingyue didn't really blame her that much.

After sending Rong Xin back to the house, Zhou Jingyue felt a dull pain in his back when he thought of the Soul Refining Whip.

The soul-refining whip is made of the tendons of a third-level soul beast. When it hits the back, not only the body will hurt, but also the mind will hurt.

Three years ago, he was punished by the sect leader with fifty lashes for causing trouble, but he was hugged by Rong Xin after only four lashes.

Rong Xin passed out after being whipped twice, and later Lin Xuxi took the punishment for him.

Thinking of the Soul Refining Whip, he still remembered that Lin Xuxi came late. If she had come earlier and not been so slow, he and Aunt Xin would not have been injured.

Lin Xuxi has a high level of cultivation and remained calm even when being beaten, so she deserves to be punished.

Zhou Jingyue's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't make up his mind. He asked anxiously, "Second Brother, will you ask for punishment?"

Although he is always arrogant because of his favor, he is still young after all.

"Oh, I don't know either." Yan Chuhua didn't want to go to the water dungeon.

If Zhou Jingyue doesn't want to go, he can also not go.

But he couldn't take the initiative. He had to wait for Zhou Jingyue to resist, and then he could just sit back and reap the benefits.

"How could that Lin Xuxi be so cruel as to whip me a hundred times? She must be crazy!" Zhou Jingyue couldn't swallow this anger. "No, I can't just accept the punishment like this."

"Then what do you want?"

"I'm going to make a scene! I'm going to say that Lin Xuxi treats us badly and won't tolerate Aunt Xin. Anyway, she was the one who made the mistake first." Zhou Jingyue gritted his teeth. "If that vicious woman tells me to go and accept the punishment, I'm going to accept the punishment. Wouldn't that make me a fool?"

Hearing these outrageous names, Yan Chuhua remained silent and only advised: "But don't be too aggressive."

"Hmph, what do you mean by aggressive? I want the entire sect to know what kind of person Lin Xuxi is!"

Watching his junior fellow disciple leave angrily, Yan Chuhua sneered and looked back at the top of the mountain. He thought to himself: "Master's Wife, Master's Wife, let's see how chaotic this sect will be when Master comes out of seclusion."

When the time comes, I’ll see if Lin Xuxi will be disliked by her master and will ask for help from her good disciple like me.

How is Zhou Jingyue going to make trouble?

With a brain like his, he naturally still follows the old way.

This time he went straight to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The crowd in the sunset light, there are nearly two thousand disciples from the inner and outer courtyards of Xuanyu Sect.

At this time, the square outside the Internal Affairs Department was bustling with two or three hundred people, all of whom came to complete their Internal Affairs tasks and receive rewards.

They were talking, laughing and joking, it was very lively.

Just then Zhou Jingyue broke into the courtyard.

He is a direct disciple, what is he doing here?

"Junior Brother Zhou, why are you here?" Jian Hui came forward to greet him. Even in a crowded place, his voice was timid. "What's going on?"

Zhou Jingyue grabbed the hand of his junior fellow apprentice and said loudly: "Third senior brother escaped a disaster today after completing a mission." His voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of the other disciples who were chatting.

Jian Hui, although a senior brother, is sensitive and prone to crying. Seeing that the other party's voice was so loud that it attracted a crowd of onlookers, he became a little nervous and asked, "What happened to Master's wife?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he confirmed Lin Xuxi's guilt.

Because this kind of thing, in the eyes of the Fu Xiu disciples, is not the first time.

"Lin Xuxi punished me with a hundred lashes of the Soul Refining Whip for no reason, and also punished Senior Brother Yan by sending him to the water dungeon for five days of self-reflection." Zhou Jingyue was indignant. "Being treated so unjustly, what will happen to us in the future?"

Zhou Jingyue is young and has a handsome appearance. Now he pretends to be pitiful, and some people actually believe his lies.

Everyone gathered around and asked what was going on.

"Master's wife punished you again?" Jianhui's eyes turned red.
