Chapter 159 Shen Zizai's Calculation
Shi Qinghan shook his head violently, trying to break free from the control of that mysterious force.
He roared in an icy voice: "Master Shen Feng, what on earth did you do to me? Could it be that... you are an evil cultivator!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a crisp "pop" sound. It turned out that Venerable Miaoyin was quick-eyed and quick-handed. While Shi Qinghan was asking questions, a talisman that was flashing with a faint spiritual light had already accurately slapped Shen Zizai's body.
In an instant, Shen Zizai was struck by lightning, and stood still on the spot, unable to move.
Venerable Miaoyin snorted gloomily and said in a cold tone: "It is really unexpected that the head of the Beast Taming Peak of our Wuhua Sect is actually an evil cultivator! Sect Master, this person has such a serious problem. I am afraid that the Beast Taming Peak will not be clean. It is better to hand it over to the Punishment Hall for punishment!"
Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Huatian was stunned for a moment, his heart filled with shock and confusion.
The head of a peak was actually an evil cultivator. Was he the only evil cultivator in the entire Beast Control Peak? Were his disciples and the many registered disciples also innocent? The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. The head of Huatian Sect felt his heart begin to beat rapidly.
Not daring to delay for even a moment, he immediately summoned the prehistoric elder and issued a serious order: "Quickly seal off the Beast Taming Peak and conduct a comprehensive investigation of all the disciples at the Beast Taming Peak."
The leader of Huatian Sect thought of Shen Yue's reputation and frowned, saying, "Shen Yue should also be locked up alone. Her behavior is quite strange now. All male cultivators who have had contact with Shen Yue must be carefully examined, and no one should be left out!"
After receiving the order, the Honghuang elder responded respectfully: "As you command, Sect Master! I just don't know how to deal with this Master Shen Feng. Do we need to escort him to the Punishment Hall for trial?"
Venerable Miaoyin waved her hand gently, and then she waved her jade hand, and a fairy rope flashing with spiritual light suddenly flew out, and quickly wrapped around Shen Zizai like a spirit snake, and tied him up tightly in the blink of an eye.
After doing all this, Venerable Miaoyin said slowly, "Let him stay here for now. Venerable Danhua will be here soon, and we will interrogate him in person then."
"Master, Master, Mochen is willing to join the cleanup team. My contracted beast, Longteng, has a very good ability to identify abnormal auras and will definitely be able to lend a hand."
Shi Qinghan, who had been standing silently, suddenly took a step forward, glanced at Shen Zizai beside him with disdain, and spoke solemnly.
The leader of Huatian Sect nodded slightly, expressing his approval: "Well, that's great! Then you can go with Elder Honghuang to carry out this mission!"
Sect Master Hua Tian looked at the two men with a gentle gaze as they turned and left.
After they gradually walked away until they disappeared, Huatian Sect Master couldn't help but sigh softly, turned his head to look at the sitting Master Miaoyin, and asked with a worried look on his face: "Uncle Master, I wonder where Master Danhua is now?"
"It should be in Shen Zizai's cave. Should we go take a look?" Venerable Miaoyin said as he raised his hand and took out a crystal clear pill that exuded a faint fragrance, and put it into Shen Zizai's slightly opened mouth.
However, in just over ten breaths, Shen Zizai, who was originally conscious, fell into a deep sleep as if he had been cast under a spell.
"Okay! Uncle-master! Let's go and take a look!" Hua Tian was also curious about what was hidden in Shen Zizai's cave, so he nodded without hesitation.
After receiving the response, Venerable Miaoyin immediately waved her wide sleeves. There was a breeze blowing, and Shen Zizai, who was originally lying on the ground, instantly disappeared into her sleeves as if by magic.
The two figures flashed and turned into two streams of light, rushing towards Shen Zizai’s cave.
Not long after, the two arrived at their destination. Shen Zizai's cave looked quite large from the outside, but after walking in, they found that it was decorated very simply and plainly, without any sense of luxury or extravagance. Everything seemed to be quite standard and there was nothing outstanding about it.
When everyone stepped into the cave, the first thing that caught their eyes was the spacious and bright hall. There were all kinds of strange and bizarre items scattered around the hall, which were collected by Venerable Danhua from all over the cave.
After quickly scanning the area, Venerable Miaoyin turned to look at Venerable Danhua who was standing beside him with an indifferent expression, and asked softly, "Brother, did you find anything special?"
Venerable Danhua nodded slightly and replied calmly: "Well, there is indeed a secret room here that has not been explored, but there are problems with the objects placed here. Huatian, you come and take a closer look. If you think anything is not suitable to be kept, destroy it immediately. Do not let it flow into the outside world to avoid causing trouble."
Upon hearing this, the leader of the Huatian Sect, who was standing nearby, casually glanced at the piles of items on the ground, then waved his hand and a blazing fireball shot out instantly.
In just a blink of an eye, all those originally dazzling things were turned into ashes and disappeared into nothingness under the devouring of the scorching flames.
Seeing this scene, Venerable Danhua nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and walked towards a huge landscape painting hanging on the wall.
He stretched out his right hand and tapped the picture a few times. With a slight buzzing sound, the magnificent painting slowly disappeared like a phantom.
Instead, a tightly closed quaint wooden door quietly appeared in front of everyone.
Venerable Danhua took a step forward, reached out, grasped the door handle and pushed hard.
In an instant, a strong and pungent smell of blood came like a tide, making people feel sick.
When everyone looked closely, they saw a tall stone platform in the center of the room, and at the core of the platform was a bottomless blood pool about three feet square.
At this moment, a man was lying quietly on the stone platform, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper, and he was obviously in a deep coma.
What was even more shocking was that a thin tube connected his arm to the bottom of the blood pool, and a steady stream of blood was flowing through the pipe into the terrifying scarlet blood pool.
"Damn it!" Venerable Danhua opened his eyes wide and waved his sleeves angrily. A sharp force gushed out instantly and slashed towards the tube connecting the blood pool and the male cultivator like lightning.
There was a crisp "click" sound, and the tube broke, as if it was as fragile as thin paper.
Then, Venerable Danhua flicked his hands lightly, and a gentle but powerful force supported the person lying on the stone platform and slowly moved him to the ground.
In the other hand of the Danhua Master, a crystal clear jade bottle appeared. He opened the bottle cap without hesitation, poured out a pill with a strong medicinal fragrance, and stuffed it into the mouth of the male cultivator.
