Chapter 40 She was not satisfied with this punishment
"What did you say? Someone's dead? How could Kong Gaofei die? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him?"
When Miaoyu heard that someone had died, her already ugly expression became even more stern.
She had originally planned to ask her master, the sect leader, to use the soul-searching technique. As long as this method was used, no matter how much Kong Gaofei tried to hide the truth, it would be useless.
But before she could do anything, Kong Gaofei died.
Miaoyu raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, feeling more and more frustrated.
"I'm sorry, Master. We failed to protect the witness." Wen Yi lowered his head in shame.
He had previously promised his master that nothing would happen to Kong Gaofei in his hands, but he didn't expect that this man would die like this.
"There is another not-so-good thing. I'm afraid Master will have to take care of it." After saying one piece of bad news, Wen Yi brought another new one.
Miaoyu said, "Tell me what news could be worse than this."
Wen Yi pursed his lips and said, "Rumors have spread in the sect that Master, you deliberately targeted the Sixth Elder. The Sixth Elder's disciple has been locked up for so long and has already confessed his guilt, but he has not been punished because you want to force that disciple to only recognize the innocent Sixth Elder..."
Under Miaoyu's increasingly sharp gaze, Wen Yi's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Innocent? When has Qin Tian ever been called innocent?" Miaoyu was so angry that she almost laughed.
Now she finally realized how shameless Qin Tian was!
Wen Yi knew that his master was unhappy, but he had to continue: "This rumor spread very quickly. Now most people in Qingxiao Sect know about it. Some disciples who don't know the truth really regard the master as a scourge. Master, what should we do?"
"Don't worry about these rumors for now. After all, no matter how exaggerated they say, my cultivation will not be reduced in the slightest. I will go find the sect leader first, and we will discuss everything after I come back." Miaoyu thought about it and decided to go to her master to discuss the matter about Qin Tian.
The young people could not understand Qin Tian's plans, but the sect leader and other elders knew them very well.
As long as he can get the support of his master, no matter how well Qin Tian pretends, he will have to accept the punishment.
After figuring this out, Miaoyu quickly found her way to Qingxiao Peak. However, when she reached the residence of Kunshan Sect Master, the boy guarding the gate blocked her way.
"Sister, wait a minute. The sect master is entertaining guests inside." The little boy called her and wanted them to go in and report before deciding whether to let Miaoyu in.
Miaoyu immediately became nervous when she heard this: "Who is the master meeting? Could it be the Sixth Elder?"
"No, it's Great-Uncle Xianyue." The little boy replied.
After hearing this answer, Miaoyu finally felt relieved.
With her vengeful uncle around, things will probably go much more smoothly for her.
The little boy went in quickly to report, and came out soon after to invite Miaoyu in.
In a large reception room, the Kunshan Sect Master sat in front of a bamboo table with a pot of spiritual tea on the table.
The spiritual tea didn't seem like cheap stuff. Just smelling it made me feel like I was breathing in a surge of spiritual energy.
"Miao Yu is here, please sit down." The leader of Kunshan raised his hand and a chair appeared out of thin air.
Miaoyu thanked her master first, then sat down upright.
When the Kunshan Sect Leader saw her serious look, he couldn't help but feel awkward.
This disciple is good in every way except that he is too serious and upright. Sometimes when looking at Miaoyu, the master of Kunshan Sect would wonder who the real master is.
"Master, I came to you to discuss the matter of the Sixth Elder. I found out that the Sixth Elder's disciple Kong Gaofei was the one who planned to murder Junior Master Xie, but I don't think this matter is that simple." Miaoyu stopped talking without saying too much.
The Kunshan Sect Master nodded and said, "I know everything you said. Your uncle-grandfather came here for this reason as well."
"Then what are your plans, Master? Although the Sixth Elder pretends to be innocent, we all know what he did."
"Although Junior Master Xie is a bit arrogant on weekdays, he has never done anything excessive in all the days since he came to Qingxiao Sect. The Sixth Elder wanted to kill Junior Master Xie because of a personal grudge, and even killed his own disciple because of it. I think such a person is no longer worthy of being an elder of our Qingxiao Sect."
Miaoyu didn't like Xie Liuyin, and she still doesn't like him now.
But no matter how much she disliked this person, Miaoyu felt that Xie Liuyin was innocent in this matter.
"Kunshan, look how sensible your disciple is. He is so disciplined. As a master, I can't let him be inferior to my own disciple." Xianyue listened to the conversation between the master and the disciple with a smile, and added a final sentence.
But the weight of his words is heavier than hundreds of words said by Miaoyu.
"Alas!" Kunshan sighed helplessly, "Kong Gaofei was expelled from the sect for harming others. Send a message to his family and ask them to take Kong Gaofei's body away."
"As for Qin Tian, he is a misbehaving teacher. I will remove him from his position as Peak Master and Elder, order him to stay in seclusion for a hundred years and not be allowed to go out. I will also stop paying him his monthly salary."
Miaoyu waited for a long time, but didn't get any follow-up from Kunshan Sect Master. She immediately became unhappy: "Master, this is clearly not the truth!"
"This is the truth. If people knew that our Qingxiao Sect's elders targeted their own new disciples and ended up killing someone, the reputation of our Qingxiao Sect would be completely ruined!" This time, Sect Master Kunshan was very determined.
But he didn't even dare to look at Xianyue, for fear that the other party would be dissatisfied with him.
What surprised Kunshan was that Xianyue did not refute, but just said: "Since this is the decision of the sect leader, then let's do as you say."
The leader of Kunshan Sect was stunned and strongly suspected that Xianyue had a backup plan.
After all, this young master-uncle doesn't like to suffer losses, and all of them old guys know that.
From childhood to adulthood, anyone who dares to provoke Junior Uncle-Master will end up in bad luck.
However, Xianyue just stood up and said goodbye silently, and returned to her own Dayun Peak quietly, as if she really had no dissatisfaction with his decision at all.
Seeing that Xianyue said nothing, the Kunshan Sect Master finally felt relieved and instructed his disciple, "Alright, just do as I say. The Qingxiao Sect must not lose face!"
Miaoyu gritted her teeth, turned around and left Qingxiao Peak.
Before, she had personally visited Grand Master Xianyue because of Xie Liuyin’s matter. The other party looked so protective, and Miaoyu thought that Grand Master Xianyue loved his disciple very much.
Now it seems that Junior Master Xie doesn’t have much weight in his heart.
Thinking of this, Miaoyu actually felt a little pity for this junior master uncle.
On the other side, Xie Liuyin, who was still practicing sword, had no idea that Miaoyu was pitying her. When she saw Xianyue finally came back, she hurried forward to ask about the outcome of the matter.
Xianyue said: "There is nothing to say. The sect master removed Qin Tian from his position as elder and peak master and ordered him to seclude himself for a hundred years."
"What's the difference between this and not punishing him?" Xie Liuyin frowned. She was not satisfied with this punishment.
