He asked calmly, "Elder Song, I also deeply regret what happened to your daughter, but she disobeyed her master's orders and went to her death. Who can be blamed for that?"

Song Changhe wiped away his tears. "Sect Master, if she really brought this upon herself, then so be it. I will not say a word. But she was murdered. She was so young, and she was killed like this. I really can't swallow this anger."

The sect leader remained calm. "Then you should go find your enemies. What are you doing here with me? Do you suspect I killed your daughter?"

Song Changhe quickly lowered his head, "Sect Master, please forgive me, this is absolutely impossible. I came to the Sect Master to ask you to seek justice for my daughter and punish the murderer."

The sect leader waved his hand impatiently, "I see you brought this strange woman in here. Could she be the murderer? If she is, you can deal with her yourself. Why bring her here to me? I am the sect leader, but I am not your sect leader alone. There is no reason for me to deal with your personal grudges."

"Sect Master, the person I brought is not the murderer, she is a witness."

"Then go confront the murderer yourself. What are you doing calling me here?"

"Sect Master, are you trying to exonerate the murderer?"

The sect leader was almost laughing in anger at him, but seeing him like this, he felt it would be a real shame not to slap him in the face.

He leaned back in his chair. "Fine, since you insist on having me, the sect leader, handle this, then speak. I want to see how much grievance you have that you need me to settle things for you."

Song Changhe immediately poured out his grievances.

What? Feng Ning provoked Song Jiaoran the moment she entered the sect.

Why did she make things difficult for Song Jiaoran in front of everyone?

There are other miscellaneous things, but let's leave them aside for now. The most important thing he pointed out at the end was that Song Jiaoran's death in the Xuanwu Secret Realm was not an accident, but was killed by Feng Ning himself.

There was also a witness, the woman standing next to him, Kuang Qian.

The sect leader seemed to recognize the name, but he didn't ask any questions. He just watched him cry for a long time before finally pleading his case. After that, he begged the sect leader to make a decision for him.

Feng Ning watched him pretend to cry for a long time.

The sect leader then said, "Feng Ning, what do you have to say?"

Before Feng Ning could say anything, Song Chaohe interrupted, "You're already a proven fact. Are you really going to believe the words of a murderer?"

The sect leader glanced at him sideways, as if he were looking at an ant.

"So you mean that what you say is the truth, and everything you say is true? Or do you think that since you are in charge of the Tianxuan Sect, everyone else is wrong even if they try to prove themselves?"

Song Changhe suddenly felt a powerful killing intent, carrying a faint pressure that almost made him kneel on the ground.

He managed to stay upright and not kneel down, but his whole body was covered in cold sweat, soaking his clothes.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the sect leader asked again, "Feng Ning, you speak."

Feng Ning smiled and bowed, saying, "Sect Master, this matter happened suddenly, and I was not prepared at all. If you would give me some time, perhaps you could call a few more people to come and serve as witnesses."

The sect leader nodded, and then summoned several disciples involved in the matter.

After arriving, Feng Ning spoke one by one, "Let me start by talking about the provocations I made as soon as I arrived at the sect."

She looked at the few familiar faces with a smile.

“Those of you, tell me, did I really provoke Song Jiaoran? I'm just a disciple who recently joined the sect. Apart from my master, I don't even know all the elders. How could I possibly know Song Jiaoran, and why would I provoke her?”

Seeing that they were still trying to argue, Feng Ning raised her hand and said, "Stop talking nonsense. I'll just ask you, Senior Sister Teng Rou is the sect's senior sister. Is Song Jiao Ran prettier or has higher cultivation? Even if I can't stand it, the one who should be provoking Senior Sister Teng Rou should be the one to do it. Why are you targeting Song Jiao Ran?"

Several people were speechless.

Someone said, forcing a smile, "You clearly want to monopolize the Fourth Elder, which is why you're targeting Senior Sister Jiao Ran. You know perfectly well that Senior Sister Jiao Ran likes the Fourth Elder."

Feng Ning sneered, "Then why didn't she like Master earlier, and only started liking him after I came? She's so powerful, why didn't she become the Fourth Elder's disciple? She's not as pretty as me, her cultivation isn't as high as mine, and she doesn't pose a threat to me, so why would I cause her trouble? Do you think your brain is full of mush, and everyone else is as abnormal as you?"

One kill.

Then she talked about the embarrassing things that happened in public.

There are more witnesses to this matter, especially Zhou Yan from the Discipline Hall, who testified that Song Jiaoran was indeed delusional and deliberately provoked the situation.

After explaining everything one by one, everyone roughly understood that Song Jiaoran was in a difficult situation because she couldn't have the one she wanted.

He's just jealous of Feng Ning.

Finally, they brought up Song Jiaoran's matter.

Feng Ning looked at Song Changhe with a cold smile, "Let's talk about how she died last."

She looked at Kuang Qian and said, "Kuang Qian, tell me, why did Song Jiaoran appear in Xuanwu City? And why did she take your spot in Xuanwu City and enter the Xuanwu Secret Realm?"

Kuang Qian sneered, "Naturally, I admired Miss Song and wanted to help her out. Who knew that after you went in, you would be so heartless as to kill her."

Feng Ning then summoned several other people who were also in the secret realm, especially Xue Feng.

Feng Ning continued, "As you all know, when we were in the secret realm, I set up an array that allowed everyone to sense the presence of their teammates using their identity tokens."

She turned to look at Kuang Qian, "Song Jiaoran also has the identity token of a disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, so you were able to find us, right? Moreover, you came here in groups, and the disciples of the Tianxuan Sect can testify to this. Most of them have seen you before."

The sect leader heard an affirmative answer from the other disciples, proving that Kuang Qian had indeed been secretly following them.

She continued, "Let me guess what kind of conspiracy you're plotting."

“Song Jiaoran was jealous of me. When she couldn’t make things difficult for me, she thought of going to Xuanwu City to try her luck and see if she could wait until I was seriously injured and then kill me.”

"And you, by chance, knew about our grudges and were also my enemy, so the two of you hit it off and entered the Xuanwu Secret Realm together."

"Afterwards, you used the formation to search for us one by one, and finally found us. You wanted to kill me to silence me, but you didn't expect to be discovered by my fellow disciples. You fought with Senior Brother Xue Feng, and in the end you escaped, but Song Jiaoran disappeared, right?"

Kuang Qian felt guilty, not expecting her to guess so accurately.
