"However, it is also true that the Xuanyin Sect was framed and murdered today. I can make a big deal out of this matter, but I cannot make a small matter disappear."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the monks in the hall changed immediately. Some of them were even brave enough to speak up and defend themselves:
"Master Jiang, you can't wrongly accuse anyone! We were all invited here by Jiang Yi, and those we killed were all demon cultivators. What's wrong with that?!"
"Noisy!"
Jiang Wenzhen suddenly waved his sleeves, and the power of Nascent Soul burst out.
The man's eyes widened in fear, and before he could dodge, he was hit and exploded into a bloody mist. The others immediately dodged in panic.
Xiang Sheng hid at the back of the crowd, using the pillars of the hall to block her view, making her inconspicuous. However, her expression was not good, and she had a vague sense of foreboding.
Sure enough, the next moment, someone among the panicked cultivators said, "Master Jiang, I remember now! Jiang Yi said that besides him, the Wanjian Sect's Supreme was also behind today's situation!"
"I remember it too!"
Another person also echoed in a panic, "Master Jiang, if you really want to punish someone, the person who should be killed should be the Supreme of Wanjian Sect! It has nothing to do with us!"
"The Supreme of Wanjian Sect is here!"
"She's hiding behind a pillar!"
"She's guilty!"
For a moment, all the wandering cultivators pointed in the direction of Xiang Sheng.
Each accusation made Xiang Sheng's face completely gloomy. She slowly walked out from behind the pillar and looked around with cold eyes.
The wandering cultivators who were pointing and talking just now immediately jumped away like frightened rabbits.
Wei Lesheng thought to himself that this was not good, but when he glanced at Li Wen's profile, he felt helpless because he was not close to the Palace Master.
Jiang Yi was about to step forward, but was stopped by Yin Lu.
He turned his head and saw Yin Lu slowly shaking his head at him.
"Uncle Master, you've already offended Jiang Daoyuan enough. If you go any further, I'm afraid he'll abandon everything and start a war prematurely. We in Baihua Valley are not ready yet."
Jiang Yi's heart suddenly became heavy. If the war started without being prepared, there would be countless casualties in Baihua Valley, and he didn't want to see that.
He slowly tightened the Feishuang Mirror in his hand, but ultimately did not stand up immediately.
When Xiang Sheng saw Jiang Yi's attitude, his heart sank, but he was not surprised by Jiang Yi's choice.
She looked at the other two sect leaders, both of whom were looking at her with indifference.
Perhaps in their view, the death of Wanjianmen's Taishang could even be considered a good thing if it could temporarily calm Jiang Daoyuan's anger.
Xiang Sheng sneered in his heart.
This "isolated and helpless" scene is so similar to what happened in the Blazing Flame Sect back then?
No one could help her, no one was willing to help her.
But now, she is no longer the weak person who was schemed and bullied by others!
"Are you the other culprit, the Supreme of Wanjian Sect?"
Jiang Daoyuan squinted his eyes and looked at Xiang Sheng, but he was not in a hurry. Killing this woman outright would not be enough to calm the pent-up anger in his heart.
He wanted to torture her slowly, making her life worse than death, and make her beg him to kill her, so that he could feel a little better.
Thinking this, he tried to find an expression of panic and fear on Xiang Sheng's face, but was disappointed.
Xiang Sheng's face was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, his eyes were dark and bottomless.
Jiang Daoyuan was slightly stunned, then chuckled: "As expected of the title of Supreme, your self-cultivation is different from that of ordinary casual cultivators. Even facing death, you can still remain so calm."
"Why is Sect Leader Jiang so angry? Killing people to vent your anger is the lowest form of behavior."
Xiang Sheng's tone was thick with sarcasm, "If Sect Master Jiang has the ability, why not destroy Baihua Valley now?"
Jiang Daoyuan frowned repeatedly: "Your words of begging for mercy are really refreshing and unconventional."
"Master Jiang, I'm afraid you made a mistake. Please forgive me?"
Xiang Sheng raised one eyebrow and said contemptuously, "Are you, Jiang Daoyuan, worthy of this?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Is this Wanjianmen Grand Master out of his mind? How can he still be so arrogant when death is imminent?
Xiang Sheng's outrageous words were simply challenging Jiang Daoyuan's bottom line.
The rage in his heart was completely aroused, "Si Wu Yue, you are looking for death!"
"It's still unclear who is looking for death!" Xiang Sheng sneered and was about to summon the Blood Refining Flying Sword.
In terms of cultivation, she is indeed no match for Jiang Daoyuan, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have the means to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator!
There is even more than one such method.
But just when she was about to take action, Zhong Yishan, who had been watching coldly, suddenly moved his eyes and stood in front of Xiang Sheng.
Zhong Yongchang was stunned. He had just been messaging his father for a long time, but his father remained indifferent. Why was he suddenly willing to help now?
Zhong Yishan gave Xiang Sheng a reassuring look, then turned back to face Jiang Daoyuan, whose face was ashen, and spoke in a firm tone, leaving no room for negotiation.
"I, Guimugu, will protect this person!"
