Chapter 19
: The Truth Revealed, Black and White Reversed!
However, at this very moment...
Qi Yunhe, the Taichu Peak Master who had been standing silently behind Gu Qingxue, slowly stepped forward.
His face seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and his once upright back now appeared somewhat hunched.
Looking at the woman who had once haunted his dreams and whom he had vowed to protect for life, all that remained in his eyes was endless sorrow and disappointment.
"Liu Mengxi, even now, are you still going to try to deny it?"
Qi Yunhe's voice was hoarse and trembling slightly.
He took out a recording stone from his sleeve and infused it with spiritual power.
hum.
A curtain of light unfolded in mid-air.
The scene was crystal clear, showing Liu Mengxi in her boudoir, holding a communication jade talisman, pouring out her heart to Li Daoyi of Tianjian Mountain.
Her shy demeanor, her explicit words of love, and her disdain and disgust for Qi Yunhe were all laid bare before everyone at this moment.
Even Li Daoyi's illusory image was clearly visible, and the two people's words made them seem like a couple who had already secretly pledged their lives to each other.
At this moment, all around was deathly silent.
This is irrefutable evidence.
As Liu Mengxi looked at the scene on the light screen, her face turned deathly pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
She never imagined that her secretive message would be recorded and then made public at this moment.
The disciples of the Enforcement Hall who had followed her looked at her with disdain and contempt.
As an elder of the Qingyun Sect, he actually cheated on his partner with a cultivator from a rival sect, even betraying the sect's interests.
Such behavior is utterly shameless.
However, after a brief period of panic, a hysterical madness appeared in Liu Mengxi's eyes.
She stared intently at Qi Yunhe, showing no remorse whatsoever, and instead questioned him loudly and confidently.
"Qi Yunhe, you've been spying on me!"
"How dare you bring this out? Don't you even reflect on your own behavior?"
"Putting aside the facts, aren't you also right?"
Liu Mengxi's voice was sharp and piercing, echoing in the high sky.
"Over the years, all you've done is cultivate and refine pills. You're practically a block of wood. Have you ever cared about me?"
Do you understand the bitterness in my heart? If you weren't so uncaring, if you weren't so boring, why would I bother looking for someone who understands me?
"You forced me into this situation. You ruined me, and now you're trying to ruin my reputation."
These remarks stunned everyone present.
Even Jiang Wuyai and Zhao Wuji subconsciously glanced at Liu Mengxi, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.
Such ability to distort the truth and shift blame is truly astonishing.
Qi Yunhe was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at Liu Mengxi, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
He felt a tightness in his chest and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He had never seen such a shameless person.
Jiang Wuyai took a deep breath. He knew that with the appearance of this recording stone, they had been completely exposed.
Continuing this performance is pointless.
That's enough.
Jiang Wuyai snorted coldly and stopped pretending.
A powerful aura at the peak of the Golden Core stage erupted from his body.
His eyes turned cold and vicious as he stared intently at Gu Qingxue.
"Since you've discovered it, there's nothing more to say. Gu Qingxue, a wise person knows when to yield."
The fate of the Qingyun Sect has run its course; its patriarch is probably long dead.
If you open the great formation now and surrender to the True Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts, you might still be able to save your life. Otherwise, once the formation breaks, we will all perish.
"Move on her, take her down!"
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Wuyai had already drawn a blood-red longsword and launched the first attack.
Seeing this, Zhao Wuji and Liu Mengxi also unleashed their magical weapons, forming a triangular formation to surround and attack Gu Qingxue.
They had a good plan: as long as they captured the sect leader, they could control the great formation; this was their last chance to survive.
However, Gu Qingxue stood still, without moving an inch.
She looked at the three people rushing towards her, her eyes filled with pity.
"Stubborn and obstinate."
She gently raised her jade-like hand and pressed it into the void.
"town."
Rumble.
The sky above Qingyun Peak was filled with a dramatic change in color.
Thick beams of cyan light rose up from all directions without warning.
This is the power of the mountain-protecting formation, personally arranged by Lu Yuan and given to Gu Qingxue with absolute control.
Faced with the array power that was strong enough to rival a Nascent Soul cultivator, the resistance of Jiang Wuyai and the other two seemed utterly laughable.
"No! This is impossible! How could you possibly have complete control over the grand formation!"
Jiang Wuyai let out a desperate roar.
The next moment, the terrifying pressure of the array descended.
boom! boom! boom!
Three muffled thuds.
The three Golden Core Peak Elders, who had just been so aggressive, were slammed to the ground by that invisible force, as if they had been swatted flies.
The protective aura around them shattered instantly, blood gushed from their mouths, and they were unable to move.
"Take him away."
Gu Qingxue withdrew her hand, her expression indifferent.
Gu Qingxiao, the head of the Enforcement Hall, immediately stepped forward.
Several chains of energy-locking magic flew out from his hand, instantly piercing through the collarbones of the three men and sealing their cultivation.
"Take him to the Netherworld Dungeon and await the Ancestor's judgment."
Gu Qingxiao waved his hand, and several disciples of the Enforcement Hall stepped forward and dragged the three people, whose faces were full of despair and regret, away like dead dogs.
……
at the same time.
Outside the gates of the Qingyun Sect.
Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, Heavenly Sword Mountain, Burning Flame Valley.
The three forces have gathered here.
The True Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts stood on a black water dragon, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
He had been waiting outside for a long time, but his messages to Jiang Wuyai had gone unanswered, like stones sinking into the sea.
"Useless trash, more trouble than it's worth!"
The True Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts cursed angrily.
He had already realized that Jiang Wuyai, this pawn, was most likely useless.
He turned to look at the Heavenly Sword True Lord, who was standing on a flying sword and exuding a sharp sword aura, and the Heavenly Fire True Lord, who was sitting on a flaming chariot with an inscrutable expression.
"Fellow Daoists," said the Myriad Beasts True Monarch in a deep voice, "that good-for-nothing Jiang Wuyai has probably been exposed. It seems that it is no longer possible to break the formation by trickery."
"Now that everyone's here, why don't we join forces and launch a full-scale attack? That old codger from the Qingyun Sect hasn't dared to show his face yet; he must be on his last legs. Once we break through this turtle shell, we can divide the resources inside equally among the three of us."
Heavenly Sword True Monarch nodded slightly, his eyes radiating sword intent.
"Excellent. My Heavenly Sword Mountain is in dire need of a high-level wood-attribute spiritual vein. I will take the Azure Cloud Sect."
On the flaming chariot, True Lord Heavenly Fire originally only intended to observe.
But now, so much time has passed, and apart from the great formation that has been erected within the Qingyun Sect, there is not even a trace of the legendary most protective and most fanatical Qingyun Ancestor.
This is very unusual.
"It seems the rumors are true. Fellow Daoist Lu Yuan, it seems you really are not going to make it."
True Monarch Tianhuo sighed, seemingly regretful, but a glint of greed flashed in his eyes.
