All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

It seems to contain the great principles of heaven and earth!

One can observe the world from a single sword strike.

His eyes were fixed on the movements of his hands, his thoughts completely absorbed by them.

It was as if he was the only one left in the world, and he could not see Nian Zhao or Qingfeng Sword.

After Nian Zhao finished demonstrating, he glanced at him and found that he had already entered a meditative state, which made him even more satisfied.

He's really smart; he understood it in such a short time. He's quite talented.

He set up a barrier around him and then ignored him, returning to his room.

He was very pleased to see that the others were still cultivating when he returned.

He was a little annoyed when he saw Feng Ning focusing on studying formations instead of practicing swordsmanship.

He's a sword cultivator! His apprentice is also a sword cultivator! How could he learn formations halfway through his career?

Learning is fine, but you can't treat it as more important than practicing swordsmanship.

It's a pity that Feng Ning refused to cultivate alone; otherwise, he really wanted to teach her everything he knew.

Feng Ning had no idea what he was thinking; if she had known, she would have been wrongly accused.

While she was conducting research outside, her spiritual consciousness was still practicing swordsmanship inside!

She hadn't wasted a single moment, yet she was still wrongly accused; she really wanted to cry.

However, this matter cannot really be blamed on Nian Zhao, since he did not know that Feng Ning could multitask.

This whole thing was actually a coincidence.

Ye Yuan had said before that her divine sense was too weak and she could only control a small number of swords. If she wanted to control more, she would have to expand her divine sense first.

She was multitasking to train her spiritual sense, and she could also cultivate both formations and swordsmanship at the same time, achieving two goals at once.

However, she was unaware of these things and was only focused on figuring out how to distinguish between different types of demons.

Seeing that everyone was busy with their own affairs, Nian Zhao did not sit idle either. He found a quiet place and told the sect leader about the matter.

He has taken control of the entire flying artifact, so no one will escape. Now he is just waiting for his senior brother to investigate after they arrive at the sect.

The sect leader has cultivated spiritual power and possesses a powerful divine sense that is beyond their reach. No matter how well they hide their abilities, they cannot escape the sect leader's eyes.

He briefly recounted what he knew, and the sect leader was extremely shocked upon hearing it.

Are you sure what they're saying is true?

Nian Zhao's expression also became more serious. "Senior brother, you should know me. I may not care about other things, but when it comes to Xiao Yi, I would never act recklessly."

The sect leader sighed, "I understand. You take control of the people first, and I will make the arrangements as soon as possible. We can discuss it further when you return."

Nian Zhao thought for a moment and added, "Senior brother, if this is true, I'm afraid many of the people who came out this time are in danger. Now that we know about it, we can't just ignore it."

"Okay, I will confirm this as soon as you return. If Xiao Yi really does come back, everyone must prepare as soon as possible."

Nian Zhao gave a soft "hmm" and then ended the call.

The sect leader on the other side, however, was not as calm as he appeared.

When he heard the news, he became incredibly quiet.

But at this moment, the quieter it is, the more wrong it feels.

After pondering for a moment, he gathered his fellow disciples and they went to the back mountain together.

After passing on the message, Nian Zhao returned to her room.

He was also thinking about something.

This matter is far more complicated than Feng Ning imagined...

Three days later, Feng Ning breathed a sigh of relief and stopped cultivating.

"Phew...finally done."

Seeing that she finally made a move, Nian Zhao walked over and asked, "How's your research going? Have you made any progress?"

Feng Ning nodded with a smile. She pointed to the formation, and Nian Zhao understood immediately, raising her hand to activate it.

She emerged from the formation and displayed her achievements to everyone.

"This is an array I created over the past few days without sleep. As long as a wisp of the aura of the demon is placed inside, the array will emit light when it encounters another of its kind."

Teng Rou immediately understood what she meant. "You mean that if the aura here is human, you can find humans, and if it's bird-like, you can find birds? Is that what you mean?"

Feng Ning gave her a reassuring look, "Senior sister is smart."

"So you still suspect Jinhe, and that he brought us here for this reason?"

Feng Ning nodded without any guilt, "There's nothing we can do. It's not just us; before we can verify our identities, everyone on this flying artifact is a suspect."

As he spoke, he raised the array plate in his hand again, "But now there's no need to worry, this thing can prove our innocence."

"But how can you be sure that Jinhe is the Xiaoyi you're talking about?"

Feng Ning nodded. "That's right. If you want to use the array plate, you must first obtain the aura of the Xiao Yi. If you want to obtain the aura, you must deal with Jin He."

"It's okay if you don't believe me, I'll prove it to you. I don't believe in innocence, I only believe in myself."

The gentleness in Teng Rou's eyes vanished, and she said coldly, "By doing this, you are disregarding the rules of the Tianxuan Sect."

Feng Ning tilted her head and looked at her, "Senior sister, I'm doing this for the good of Tianxuan Sect, why are you hindering me at every turn? Could it be that you're one of his accomplices?"

Teng Rou glanced at her coldly, "Absurd! You're just making excuses."

Feng Ning shrugged. "Instead of each sticking to their own story and neither being able to convince the other, then let's produce proof. Do you have any way to prove that he is not a demon?"

Teng Rou pursed her lips and did not answer.

Feng Ning chuckled, "Look, even Senior Sister couldn't do it, right? Since you can't do it either, why don't you try my method?"

Teng Rou strongly disagreed, "What if your guess is wrong? Are you just going to let us watch you take a life for nothing?"

Everyone turned their attention to Jinhe, whose eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face.

They looked rather pitiful, which made everyone feel even more sorry for them.

Feng Ning merely glanced at it, showing no mercy whatsoever.

“It’s fine not to kill him. Besides killing him, I have another way to prove that he is Xiao Yi, but if I use that method, it will be difficult for me to protect him.”

Lin Tanyu asked, "Is there any other way?"

Feng Ning took out a lightning-summoning talisman. "Naturally, it will be struck by lightning. A normal person won't die from being struck by lightning twice, but if it's a demon, one lightning-summoning talisman will be enough to kill it."

Everyone was silent.

Zhang Gonghou frowned. "Is it really necessary to do it this way?"

Feng Ning was almost laughing in exasperation. "What else can we do? We have to choose one of the two. You can decide for yourselves."
