"Yes, Sect Master."
Golden Retriever Zhan Taishan nodded and returned to the square.
This time, the object of his soul search was Yue Junpeng, an inner disciple of Xuesong Peak.
As he pressed down with his palm, activating the Soul Searching Technique, Yue Junpeng immediately screamed in agony.
Smoke billowed from Yue Junpeng's head, and moments later, he passed out like a dead dog.
The Golden Lion King Zhan Taishan casually tossed Yue Junpeng to the ground.
Then, he glanced at the distance, leaped, and landed in front of a middle-aged man in a brocade robe.
Before the middle-aged man could even show a look of panic.
He grabbed him, dragged him back to the center of the square, and threw him to the ground.
Seemingly afraid that the middle-aged man would escape, he stepped on his body.
The Golden Lion King, Zhan Taishan, possessed formidable strength; his feet, imbued with spiritual power, weighed as heavy as a thousand pounds.
"Vice Peak Master Xue, please explain why you harmed Junior Nephew Gu?"
Everyone was stunned when the middle-aged man was trampled underfoot.
Especially the disciples of Xuesong Peak.
Because this middle-aged man was none other than their deputy peak master—
Snow Borong!
The Misty Sect has a total of thirty-six peaks.
Almost every peak has a peak master and a deputy peak master.
As the deputy peak master, Xue Borong was already considered a core member of the sect's upper echelons.
But is this person also involved in the slander against the senior brother?
No one could believe it.
Xue Borong looked terrified.
He seemed about to do something.
Ye Qingcheng's face was icy cold as she said, "Seal his acupoints!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Zhan Taishan, the Grand Elder of Judgment Peak, raised his hand and pointed a finger, shooting out a stream of spiritual energy that sealed Xue Borong's acupoints.
Xue Borong's body was immediately unable to move.
His teeth, which he had been biting down on, stopped in mid-air.
"Elder Zhan, leave it to me."
The dashing and heroic leader of the sect's army, Ruan Qingxia, came to Xue Borong's side.
She crouched down, enveloped herself in spiritual energy, and removed a false tooth containing a deadly poison from Xue Borong's mouth.
Under the horrified gazes of those around her, she used her sword to cleave open the false teeth, and immediately, a strangely potent venom flowed out.
"Sect Master, this is the Ten Thousand Zombie Blood Poison again!"
Ruan Qingxia's expression was solemn.
The surrounding peak masters and elders all changed color.
Ye Qingcheng's expression turned even colder.
Previously, after the death of Shi Hong, the third elder of Baiyufeng.
She felt it was a conspiracy.
At this moment, I saw the same Ten Thousand Zombie Blood Poison.
She felt even more strongly that this was a complete and utter conspiracy.
Recalling the events of her past life seen in the Heaven-Mending Mirror, Ye Qingcheng felt even more heartbroken.
It's clear that these people framed Gu Jian.
But in her past life, she actually believed what they said.
He issued that heartbreaking order.
Ye Qingcheng dared not imagine what Gu Jian was thinking and how desperate he was at that time.
Heartache is an indescribable feeling for Ye Qingcheng at this moment.
All her grief and indignation transformed into a raging fire of fury. She ordered Zhan Taishan, the Grand Elder of Judgment Peak, "Search the soul! This sect leader must find out the truth and restore Jian'er's innocence."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Elder Zhan Taishan of the Judgment Peak nodded and placed his hand on Xue Borong's head.
As the Soul Searching Technique was activated, Xue Borong screamed in agony.
The agonizing screams sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
This is the deputy peak master!
Whether in terms of cultivation level or status, they were considered high and mighty figures by the vast majority of disciples of the Misty Sect.
But now, he is being subjected to a soul search as if he were a traitor to his sect.
The sect leader doesn't get angry easily, but once she does, no one can withstand her wrath.
But no one would have thought that it was just some people pointing out Senior Brother Gu Jian in the sect's group chat.
This ultimately led to this result.
The soul search ended quickly.
When the deputy peak master Xue Borong was thrown to the ground like a dead dog, clutching his head and howling in pain.
Elder Zhan Taishan of the Judgment Peak frowned.
Ye Qingcheng looked at Zhan Taishan and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
Zhan Taishan clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ye Qingcheng and said in an aged voice, "Sect Master, this Vice Peak Master Xue was also acting under someone else's orders."
The disciples and elders around were shocked by Zhan Taishan's words.
The entire square erupted in an uproar.
Even a dignified deputy peak master was acting under someone else's orders?
Who instructed him?
Who can command a deputy peak master?
Ye Qingcheng was furious and said in a cold voice, "Who ordered this?!"
Zhan Taishan said, "Sect Master, a person called Lord."
My Lord?
Ye Qingcheng was taken aback and asked, "Who is that?"
Zhan Taishan shook his head and frowned, saying, "I don't know. Although I searched his soul, I couldn't read all his memories."
"Some important memories seem to be shrouded in some mysterious secret. It feels like touching a taboo. No matter how hard I try, I cannot obtain the key information!"
Ye Qingcheng frowned, then said coldly, "What taboo? This sect leader doesn't believe it. Continue the search."
"We must find this message from the Lord!"
"yes!"
Zhan Taishan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Then, he grabbed Vice Peak Master Xue Borong again, placed his hand on Xue's head, and began searching his soul.
The screams rang out again, sending chills down everyone's spines.
The surrounding disciples and elders were shocked and whispered among themselves.
"What lord? I have a feeling there's a huge conspiracy going on."
"I feel the same way."
"Could it be some evil force that has infiltrated my Misty Sect and is targeting us?"
