Chapter 43

Liu Shuang said without changing her expression. To this, Xu Jie's mouth twitched. This woman really dared to say it.

"But this woman's Master is still..."

"Then kill her too. The disciple colluded with demons, the Master must not be any better."

Good guy, killing He Lu wasn't enough, even her Master had to be killed.

Xu Jie felt his eyelids jump and shook his head repeatedly.

"Is that necessary?"

"Then bury them, no one will see them alive, no corpse will be found."

"This..."

Listening to Liu Shuang talk about how to kill and hide the corpse, making it unknown to anyone, Ye Changqing had black lines all over his head. Was this really something a righteous sect disciple could say?

What was even more absurd was that the surrounding Divine Sword Peak disciples not only didn't object but instead offered suggestions one after another.

"I think Second Senior Sister is right, just bury them directly. Then say they left on their own."

"Hmm, feasible, but the burial site must be chosen well."

"Bury them in the back mountain, no one will find them."

"Not appropriate, I think we should choose a place that cannot be searched. How about burying them in the backyard of the Deacon Hall? No one would think of that."

Listen, what kind of tiger-wolf words were these? He Lu and the other Luoxia Sect disciples were all scared pale upon hearing this. Was this still the leader of the righteous path in Dongzhou? The Demon Sect was probably just like this.

The disciples were discussing how to deal with He Lu and the others as if no one was around, and hearing the Divine Sword Peak disciples' words, He Lu and the others were all terrified.

Was this really the leader of the righteous path in Dongzhou, the Dao One Sect disciples? Why was it always about killing and destroying evidence?

He Lu was blocked and couldn't speak, while the other Luoxia Sect disciples hurriedly spoke one after another.

"Wait a minute, this has nothing to do with us."

"Exactly, we just came along to the Dao One Sect, we didn't do anything."

From the expressions of these Divine Sword Peak disciples, it didn't seem like they were joking at all. The Luoxia Sect disciples were also panicked.

However, just at this moment, He Lu's Master, Yu Li, and the Third Elder of the main seat arrived in time. With their cultivation realms, they heard the conversation of the Divine Sword Peak disciples from afar.

Yu Li's face was gloomy, while the Third Elder of the main seat's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but shout coldly.

"All of you, shut up."

Following the shout, the two descended from the sky. Looking at He Lu and the others who were tied up and even had their mouths blocked, Yu Li snorted coldly and waved her hand, only then untying the ropes that bound everyone.

Seeing Yu Li arrive, the Luoxia Sect disciples were like receiving amnesty, standing up one after another behind Yu Li, as if only this could give them some sense of security.

"Elder, we..."

"Shut up."

It was simply losing all face. Yu Li didn't want to listen to the disciples' explanations at all, just looking at He Lu.

Facing her Master's gaze, He Lu glared fiercely at Ye Changqing and said.

"Master, it's all Ye Changqing. It was him who used some despicable means to bribe the Divine Sword Peak brothers and sisters to attack us."

Blaming everything on Ye Changqing, hearing this, the gazes of Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat fell on Ye Changqing. Facing the gaze of the two big shots, Ye Changqing said speechlessly.

"I say, if you want to frame someone, you have to use your brain. I'm a handyman disciple, what do I have to bribe so many Senior Brothers and Sisters? Let alone Senior Brother Xu Jie and Senior Sister Liu Shuang and the other personal disciples."

"Is this something a small handyman disciple like me can do?"

Ye Changqing was truly speechless. He really didn't do anything.

Hearing this, Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat didn't believe Ye Changqing could do this either. Yu Li glanced at the gloomy He Lu, who was still relentless.

"Ye Changqing, now that things have reached this point, you still want to deny it?"

She didn't believe that this matter had nothing to do with Ye Changqing. To this, Ye Changqing was too lazy to say anything more, only looking at He Lu with a caring expression for the mentally disabled.

Both sides held their own words, but just at this time, the deacons of the Law Enforcement Hall arrived with a group of disciples.

Then Ye Changqing, He Lu, the Luoxia Sect disciples, and the dozen or so disciples pushed forward by Divine Sword Peak were all taken to the main peak Law Enforcement Hall.

This matter naturally had to be handled by the Law Enforcement Hall.

Inside the Law Enforcement Hall, the Second Elder of the main seat, who was in charge, sat in the main seat. On both sides below were Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat. In the center of the hall were Ye Changqing, He Lu, and the others.

The Second Elder of the main seat also roughly understood the process of the matter. From what He Lu and the others said, it was clearly the fault of the Divine Sword Peak disciples.

At this moment, looking at Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, and the other Divine Sword Peak disciples, the Second Elder of the main seat said in a deep voice.

"Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, is what the Luoxia Sect disciples said true? Do you have anything to explain?"

"Heh, simply nonsense."

Hearing this, Xu Jie sneered. As for Liu Shuang, she didn't intend to answer at all.

After speaking, without waiting for others to reply, Xu Jie looked at He Lu and the others and said loudly.

"This matter is entirely the Luoxia Sect disciples' own fault."

"Everyone knows that my Dao One Sect and the Luoxia Sect have a close relationship. Originally, my Divine Sword Peak was extremely friendly to the Luoxia Sect disciples. But who would have thought that these Luoxia Sect disciples harbored evil intentions and actually wanted to harm my Divine Sword Peak disciples?"

"You're talking nonsense, we didn't at all."

"If you want to add a crime, why worry about not having an excuse?"

Hearing Xu Jie's words, the Luoxia Sect disciples refuted one after another. In the Law Enforcement Hall, they seemed to be tough again.

But to this, Xu Jie just glanced at them indifferently and continued to say to the Second Elder on the main seat.

"Whether it's true or not, you know it yourselves. Justice is in the hearts of the people. I ask you, why did your Luoxia Sect come to my Dao One Sect this time?"

"Because of the marriage contract between Senior Sister He Lu and Ye Changqing."

"You want to break off the engagement, right?"

"Yes."

"Since that's the case, what else is there to explain? You all admitted it yourselves."

Once these words were spoken, the Luoxia Sect disciples were all stunned. What admitted it yourselves? What did we say?

Facing the confused Luoxia Sect disciples, Xu Jie sneered.

"The marriage contract between He Lu and Junior Brother Changqing has existed since childhood and was set by the elders of the family."

"As the saying goes, marriage is a major event, and the parents' order is paramount. Now He Lu wants to unilaterally break off the engagement. Not to mention whether it's right or wrong, even if you want to break off the engagement, you should go to the Ye family, not to my Dao One Sect."

"But you insisted on coming to the Dao One Sect and personally finding Junior Brother Changqing."

"May I ask, which man can withstand the shame of breaking off an engagement? Are you trying to make Junior Brother Changqing unable to lift his head in the Dao One Sect in the future?"

"You did it on purpose, intending to destroy Junior Brother Changqing's Dao heart."

"Isn't this harming my Divine Sword Peak disciple?"

"Destroying someone's Dao heart is one thing, but you, yes you, I clearly heard you say to the person beside you just now that once Junior Brother Changqing's Dao heart is destroyed, you would find an opportunity to kill him."

"Destroying someone's Dao heart isn't enough, you also want to kill them to silence them. Your Luoxia Sect disciples are so vicious. As fellow disciples, how can we stand by and watch?"

The Luoxia Sect disciple pointed at by Xu Jie was now wooden-faced. When did he ever say he wanted to kill Ye Changqing?

He was just following along to watch the fun, at most thinking about sucking up to He Lu, this newly promoted personal disciple.

But now, how did he suddenly become a murderer who wanted to harm Dao One Sect disciples?

"I... I didn't..."

Coming back to his senses, this disciple tried his best to argue, but Xu Jie didn't buy it at all. He turned to the Second Elder and bowed, then said righteously.

"Therefore, seeing my fellow junior brother being harmed, as the Third Senior Brother of Divine Sword Peak, what is wrong with me stepping in to protect my junior brother?"

"These Luoxia Sect disciples are bold and vicious. This disciple even suspects that they have colluded with demons. Coming here this time is to secretly sow discord between my Dao One Sect and the Luoxia Sect to achieve ulterior motives."

"Such human scum, this disciple requests the Second Elder to investigate strictly and first lock them into the Black Prison for strict interrogation."

"No, we are wronged."

It was getting more and more absurd, even to the point of locking them into the Black Prison. Hearing Xu Jie's words, the Luoxia Sect disciples knelt on the ground one after another, shouting that they were wronged. They were really not demon spies, and they never thought about harming Ye Changqing.
