Chapter 3: What exactly is the curse?



boom!

Upon hearing this, Pei Qingyun felt his dignity had been greatly offended. He slammed his fist on the table and stood up abruptly. His terrifying and vast spiritual power instantly stirred up a huge wave that swept outwards.

She looked down at Chi Yuan with unparalleled majesty, her words striking his heart like heavy hammer blows: "You still dare to say you're innocent? So stubborn and unyielding, do you really want me to punish you?"

Chi Yuan groaned, feeling as if a mountain was pressing down on him, the heavy pressure making it hard for him to breathe.

But this did not break Chi Yuan's spirit. He still resolutely raised his head and met Pei Qingyun's gaze without fear: "Even if you punish me a hundred times, I will still consider myself innocent!"

"well!"

Pei Qingyun said "good" twice in a row, then his gaze suddenly swept over You Rong Qingxian, and he sternly rebuked, "This is the good disciple you taught!"

You Rong Qingxian's face was also very ugly. She stared at Chi Yuan with cold eyes and said, "You wicked disciple, how long are you going to be so stubborn? Do you have to wait until disaster strikes before you will confess your sins?"

"Is disaster imminent?"

Chi Yuan met Rong Qingxian's angry gaze, a cold, mocking smile playing on his lips: "Even if I die here, I will not confess!"

"you……"

You Rongqingxian's expression suddenly changed. She hadn't expected Chi Yuan's attitude to be so resolute, which made her feel a sense of unfamiliarity and panic.

"So you're really stubborn and refuse to admit your guilt! I'll see just how hard you can stick your tongue out today!"

As soon as the angry voice fell, Pei Qingyun suddenly reached out and grabbed Chi Yuan. Instantly, Chi Yuan was enveloped by a terrifying spiritual power, and he was irresistibly lifted off the ground, suspended in mid-air in the Hall of Law Enforcement.

Upon seeing this, the seven women, including Rong Qingxian and Lu Ziling, all changed their expressions. The law enforcement elder also frowned and said to Pei Qingyun with a slight warning, "Junior Sister Pei, be mindful of your behavior."

Pei Qingyun ignored the elder in charge of law enforcement and stared at Chi Yuan in mid-air with eyes like swords, demanding, "You wicked child, I'll ask you again, do you plead guilty or not!"

Chi Yuan struggled to breathe, yet still answered firmly, "I don't admit it!"

Snap!

A crimson spiritual energy whip instantly materialized behind Chi Yuan, lashing out at his back with a crack. "Do you admit it or not?!"

"I...don't believe it!"

Smack! Smack! Smack!

"Do you admit it or not!"

"...No...I don't admit it!"

"Still not admitting it?!"

Several more lashes fell, but Chi Yuan still gritted his teeth and said he wouldn't admit it.

Rong Qingxian, Lu Ziling, and the other seven women stared blankly at Chi Yuan, who stubbornly refused to admit his guilt. While feeling a pang of pity, they also began to feel flustered and afraid.

"Still not admitting it, huh?"

Seeing that whipping was useless, a fierce glint flashed in Pei Qingyun's eyes. Suddenly, she condensed a large hand of spiritual energy and reached into Chi Yuan's dantian, holding the golden spiritual pill that had already formed in Chi Yuan's dantian in her palm. She shouted, "If you don't confess your sins, I will destroy your cultivation!"

"Master, no!"

You Rongqingxian spoke urgently, her voice trembling slightly, as she advised Chi Yuan, "Yuan'er, don't be so stubborn anymore, just admit it."

Chi Yuan's sarcasm deepened: "Destroy it if you want, destroy it...destroy it and I'll return this cultivation to you!"

You Rongqingxian was suddenly stunned, a chill running through her heart.

Pei Qingyun's anger intensified, and she tightened her grip on the golden elixir, her face grim as she said, "Do you really think I wouldn't dare destroy your cultivation?"

Chi Yuan's mockery remained undiminished: "If you're going to force a confession, then stop with the talk and get to the point."

"you……"

A sinister glint flashed in Pei Qingyun's eyes as she controlled her large hand of spiritual energy to tightly grip the golden elixir, making a pulling motion outwards. "I'll give you one last chance!"

This time, Chi Yuan simply remained silent, closing his eyes indifferently, his face full of mocking smiles.

At this moment, the giant hand of spiritual energy had already dragged the golden elixir out of Chi Yuan's abdomen, and it looked as if the golden elixir was about to leave Chi Yuan's dantian.

"Junior Sister Pei, you mustn't!"

"Master, stop! You can't really ruin Yuan'er's cultivation!"

"Grandmaster, please show mercy!"

The elder in charge of law enforcement urgently tried to stop them, and Rong Qingxian pleaded with her voice. Lu Ziling and the other seven women knelt before Pei Qingyun, anxiously begging for mercy. Ning Wan'er's eyes even glistened with tears, and she already felt remorse.

Pei Qingyun's face was ashen. This man not only showed no remorse, but his mocking smile was like a slap in her face, which infuriated her.

"Never mind."

"Originally, I wanted to keep him around for a few more years and use his sword body to help Chen'er's swordsmanship improve. But now I have no choice but to take drastic measures. Otherwise, this scheme will not only fail, but will also greatly hinder Chen'er's relationship with these seven women."

"Today, let's cripple this boy's cultivation and force him out of the sect."

With this thought in mind, a sinister glint flashed in Pei Qingyun's eyes. He suddenly pulled the golden elixir outward with his large hand holding it, and the golden elixir broke free from Chi Yuan's dantian and flew out of Chi Yuan's body.

"puff……"

Chi Yuan's eyes snapped open instantly, and he spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood. His energy and spirit visibly withered away.

"Junior Sister Pei, you..."

"don't want?!"

Seeing Chi Yuan's cultivation destroyed, You Rong Qingxian's eyes widened in horror, and she let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Lu Ziling and the other seven girls were also pale-faced, staring blankly at Chi Yuan, who looked extremely dejected, with tears streaming uncontrollably from their eyes.

"Senior brother..."

Ning Wan'er stared blankly at Chi Yuan, her mind a complete blank.

Ye Chen was stunned. He never expected that Chi Yuan would rather have his cultivation destroyed than confess his crime. He couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

However, he thought again that he had framed Chi Yuan in order to ruin Chi Yuan's image in the eyes of the seven senior sisters. But if Chi Yuan disappeared from Tianyue Peak, wouldn't that be a one-step solution to eliminate this major threat from the root?

This is beneficial to him and harmless!

"Haha, what an idiot!"

"My dear senior brother, I must thank you for making this possible."

Ye Chen felt a surge of schadenfreude, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if his soul had been slashed by something, making him feel as if he had lost something.

The seven women, including Rong Qingxian and Lu Ziling, trembled. When they looked at Chi Yuan again, a flood of emotions welled up in their hearts.

Huff!

The spiritual energy shield surrounding Chi Yuan suddenly dissipated, and Chi Yuan's body fell limply to the ground.

"Yuan'er!"

"Senior brother!"

The women cried out in distress. Rong Qingxian was the first to flash below Chi Yuan and catch him. Chi Yuan's seven junior sisters also got up and flew to his side, surrounding him.

"Yuan'er, you..."

Looking at Chi Yuan's withered and miserable face, tears blurred Rong Qingxian's eyes. Her hand trembled as she touched him, her heart aching terribly.

"Senior brother..."

The seven women wept bitterly, filled with remorse.

Why……

Why didn't they believe Chi Yuan?

Why did Chi Yuan treat them with such sincerity, yet they didn't give him any trust in this matter?

What kind of bewitching power have they been possessed by?!
