Yan Xi looked at the judge.
The judge for the final round was a teacher from Shengshi Academy, and he looked at Yan Xi with obvious affection.
"The Xuantian Sect is fighting against the Hunyuan Immortal Sect, and the Hunyuan Immortal Sect is victorious."
"Next match: Hunyuan Immortal Sect versus Baoling Immortal Sect."
"Wait, we've heard that Shu Jianyue of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect is very likely an evil cultivator. We need to confirm this before the competition," said Shan Tu, the Grand Elder of the Baoling Immortal Sect, as he looked at Shu Jianyue.
His face was full of righteous indignation, as if Shu Jianyue were an evil cultivator.
Everyone at the competition looked at Shu Jianyue, and then at Yan Xi.
But one thing is certain: Yan Xi is not an evil cultivator.
"Oh, I wonder where you heard that from?" Shu Jianyue looked at Xin Yue, Fang Di, and the others.
"Back in Baichuan City, Master Xin fought against me. Am I the one in question?"
"I remember that Master Xin still has some things to explain in Baichuan City. Should we explain them to him as well?"
Xin Yue pursed his lips and glared at her, "This sect leader doesn't understand what Miss Shu is talking about. We did fight, but evil cultivators are good at disguising themselves, and this sect leader cannot confirm that you are not an evil cultivator."
He knew all too well what was going on.
It was Fang Qianxun who made it.
Shu Jianyue smiled and said, "Oh, the demonic energy I discovered in the Xuantian Sect, I wonder if Sect Master Xin is a demonic cultivator or an evil cultivator, since demonic and evil cultivators are good at disguising themselves."
"Moreover, that wisp of demonic energy feels somewhat familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before. I wonder if Master Xin could tell me about it?"
"Also, I'm quite curious as to why the elders leading the groups have suddenly become so devoted to you."
"Nonsense! We're clearly talking about your status as an evil cultivator. Don't make baseless accusations." A hint of panic flashed in Xin Yue's eyes as he spoke.
He handled it very cleanly, so how could he have left demonic energy in the sect?
The matter of the Soul-Stabilizing Gu is clearly over.
Xin Yue looked at those who had been afflicted by the Gu poison.
Gu Pingsheng sat there with his eyes half-closed, watching with a sense of admiration.
Hu Yang looked at Xin Yue; this was no good.
Shu Jianyue leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs, and laughed, "Isn't everyone talking about evil cultivators? What's wrong with me revealing my findings? Or is Sect Leader Xin feeling guilty?"
"I don't mind if everyone comes to verify this, and I'd be happy to exchange ideas with you all. I just don't know if Master Xin would be willing for everyone to come to the Xuan Tian Sect to investigate properly."
“You…” Xin Yue took a deep breath, “Of course, if not, what will Miss Shu do?”
Shu Jianyue leaned forward, staring at him coldly, and said, "Then what if I am not an evil cultivator? What will you do then?"
"What, you think I'm easy to bully? Come on, bully me all you want?"
"I am usually approachable, gentle and kind, but that doesn't mean I don't have a temper."
Gentle and kind? Fang Mu's lips twitched involuntarily when he heard her words.
Bai Na, standing behind him, couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Fang Qianxun didn't come because she was expelled from Shengshi Academy. She was afraid of losing face, so she didn't show herself, but she hid in the shadows.
Seeing this, he frowned and sent a telepathic message to Fang Di, asking him to help Xin Yue confirm Shu Jianyue's reputation as an evil cultivator.
Fang Di isn't stupid; in this situation, saying more would only lead to more mistakes.
Dan Tu frowned as he looked at them, feeling as if he had been used. "This elder only wants to confirm whether Miss Shu is an evil cultivator."
"Heh, all I want to know is who you are. You say you want confirmation, so I have to confirm it for you?" Shu Jianyue looked at him coldly.
She didn't care who he was, whether he was being used as a pawn, or what his purpose was; anyone who was targeting her would pay the price.
Shu Jianyue raised her hand and grabbed him, lifting him into the air. "Where do you get the courage to keep staring at me and stepping on me? And what makes you think you can do that? Just because of your mouth?"
"You, how could you..." Shan Tu struggled, his eyes bulging.
Seeing this, everyone looked at Shu Jianyue in surprise, only to see her sitting there leisurely, raising her hand slightly.
Dan Tu has already reached the second stage of the Nascent Soul realm, yet she was lifted up like that without Dan Tu even moving an inch.
If it were just someone at the Foundation Establishment stage, that would be one thing, but the other party is already at the second stage of the Nascent Soul stage.
To lift up a Nascent Soul stage cultivator without warning, one would need to be at least at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Xin Yue's face was extremely pale; it seemed that his plans were ruined again.
Gu Pingsheng opened his half-closed eyes and looked at her with surprise.
Even with a purple-grade spiritual vein, someone of this bone age would never reach this level in a place like the Lower Domain.
So, who is she?
"Hu Yang, go and investigate this Shu Jianyue's life story."
Hu Yang immediately said, "I already investigated. She was born into a commoner family, was rumored to be a good-for-nothing, had a child out of wedlock, and disappeared for a period of time after escaping her family."
"When I reappear, it will be time to participate in the selection of disciples of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect."
"He was accepted as a closed-door disciple by the patriarch of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect when he was in the Foundation Establishment stage with a purple-grade spiritual vein."
Gu Pingsheng withdrew his gaze, looking down at the spiritual tea in his hand, "We can't find any trace of her during the time she disappeared?"
Hu Yang shook his head, "We can't find out. Nobody knows where she went."
Gu Pingsheng put down the spirit tea and looked at Shu Jianyue again, "Is that her Daoist partner?"
Hu Yang nodded, "Yes, the children's father is also unfathomable in terms of cultivation level, quite mysterious."
Shu Jianyue looked around and said, "Come on, who else has a problem with me? Speak up now, so I won't be dragged out and criticized later."
After what she did, who would dare say she's tired of living?
Seeing that no one else was going to say anything, Shu Jianyue threw the single-path object away and, as if afraid of getting it dirty, cut off the piece of spiritual energy.
"Cough cough..." Shan Tu covered his throat and coughed violently.
Elder Hu Yang's eyes gleamed. "Dean, no matter who she is, as long as she's not a demon, she's a talented person."
Gu Pingsheng's eyebrows twitched, and he nodded slightly. "That makes sense."
Hu Yang values talent, but he values something else entirely.
Hu Yang stared intently at Shu Jianyue until he felt a cold gaze upon him.
The owner of that gaze was none other than Chong Zhi.
Seeing him looking towards Shengshi Academy, Shu Jianyue asked, "What's wrong?"
Chong Jiu didn't hide anything and said, "That old man has been watching you the whole time, and now he probably wants to take you back to Shengshi Academy even more."
Shu Jianyue looked at Hu Yang and saw him smiling at her and waving his hand.
"Who is that person next to him? He hasn't appeared before."
Chong Jiu glanced at him and said, "It should be the dean of Shengshi Academy."
Shu Jianyue nodded. "I've made up my mind. We won't go to Sheng Academy. We only have one goal now: to find Chen Xin."
Chong Jiu's gaze towards her suddenly became intense. Although she was more focused on her own goals, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat.
Seeing his gaze, Shu Jianyue coughed lightly and said, "I have my own purposes too." So, don't look at her like that, it makes her feel pressured.
