They also told Mi Fenghui and several elders of the Hidden Sect about what they discovered after arriving on the Danling Continent: the Azure Water Sect and the other eight major sects were using the Moon White Stone to screen the Yun family. They also recounted what Wu Dongyu, who was Yunxiao, had seen and heard back then.

Mi Fenghui, Mi Tang'an, and the others were dumbfounded, finding it utterly unbelievable:

"When we heard that the Azure Water Sect and the Eight Great Families used Moonstone to screen for demonic possession, we just laughed. But we never imagined that it was because the Yun family could use Moonstone as a spirit stone!"

"I never imagined that such a constitution, capable of turning waste into treasure, existed in the world!"

"Even if the Yun family can use Moonstone as a spirit stone, it just means they have one more cultivation method than other families. The Yun family is the head of the eight great families, so it's understandable that some of their members are strong. But that shouldn't lead to the extermination of the entire clan, right?"

As Ji Fengming listened to the discussions among the Hidden Sect members, he was about to open his mouth to say something when Hei Xiao stopped him in time and shook his head at him.

The ultimate secret of the Yun family's physique is their ability to quickly absorb spiritual energy and rapidly aid in cultivation.

This is a secret that those in the know would not easily reveal.

Although the Hidden Sect members seem to uphold righteousness, they are not close friends. No one can guarantee how many people can still be saints when faced with absolute self-interest.

"The spiritual power contained in the Moonstone is far purer than that of ordinary spiritual power. The fact that the Yun family can absorb the spiritual power in the Moonstone without any hindrance is already a considerable temptation for ordinary cultivators. Driven by profit, everyone can turn into a demon." Shang Xiye gave a vague and ambiguous answer, which can be considered a reasonable explanation: "However, we still do not know the truth."

But we can be certain that the person who framed the Yun family must be connected to the demon race.

Even more surprisingly, the mastermind behind this might be the demon race. If so, their ambitions must be enormous.

Otherwise, the demons wouldn't have needed to expend so much effort, practically laying an inescapable net, to hunt down the Yun family.

Mi Feng and the other elders of the Hidden Sect nodded repeatedly.

“In that case, the extermination of the Yun family is indeed very suspicious.” Mi Feng knew that Shang Xiye and Hei Xiao wouldn’t bring this up for no reason, so he said seriously, “Sect Master Mo, Sect Master Ling, do you perhaps hope that our Hidden Sect will step in to protect the Yun family?”

“Although our Hidden Sect is renowned, the matter of the Yun family is still unresolved, and the outside world has long held a conclusion about the Yun family. If the Hidden Sect were to speak out rashly at this time…” Mi Tang’an also looked troubled, almost saying his refusal aloud.

“No, I know that at this time, it would only backfire if either the Hidden Sect or the Pill Sect stepped in to protect the Yun family,” Shang Xiye shook his head and said, “I hope that the Hidden Sect can emerge and use your best methods of identifying demons to reveal the true demons to the world.”

"Let everyone know the correct methods of identifying demons, and know what demons really look like. Then, slowly guide everyone to see that there are more than just members of the Yun family among these demons. In that case, the Yun family's crime of colluding with the demons will be half cleared. Sect Master Mo is indeed brilliant." Mi Fenghui instantly understood Shang Xiye's meaning and couldn't help but give Shang Xiye a thumbs up.

Mi Tunning, the second elder of the Hidden Sect, said in a low voice with a troubled expression, "But Sect Master, one of the most important ancestral precepts of our Hidden Sect is not to get too involved in the world. That is why we are called the Hidden Sect. Getting involved in the world is to violate the ancestral precepts and break the rules."

"The Second Elder is right, our Hidden Sect cannot engage with the world," a gentle-sounding but actually sharp voice came from outside the door.
