Ye Qingyun nodded. "It must be some kind of life-saving escape talisman. This is not your fault. Tell me what happened at the Lotus Platform today."
At this moment, Ai Yue thought for a moment, and then gave a detailed report on what happened at Lotus Platform that day. After listening, Ye Qingyun said with a gloomy face: "Thirty-six female disciples died at Lotus Platform. Their deaths were gruesome. They all suffered inhuman torture before they died. More than a dozen female disciples are missing. You say the murderer is dead. What are the specific details?"
At this moment, Lu Yuan stepped forward. He hadn't even had time to change out of his blood-stained clothes. "Reporting to Master, Shen Fengmian was beheaded by Junior Sister Ai Yue, and I killed Hua Ziqi!"
Ye Qingyun nodded. At this moment, Liu Jiantang suddenly spoke up, "Senior brother, let's start the war! As long as you say the word, I'll go to Kunlun and wipe out those remaining demonic cult members!"
Ye Qingyun thought for a moment, "No rush. Although you have entered the Dao Integration Realm, Junior Brother Liu, one person's strength is ultimately limited. Let's talk about it after the Dao Alliance is established. Right now, let's deal with the traitors of our Heavenly Sword Sect."
After saying that, Ye Qingyun waved his hand, and Li Qianyun was brought in.
The boy's eyes were lifeless; he knew he had no way out and didn't want to say anything more.
Ye Qingyun turned to look at Xiao Yuhan and said, "Junior Brother Xiao! As an elder of the Discipline Hall, you are dealing with Li Qianyun, who is the chief disciple of the Discipline Hall. She has knowingly broken the law. You should handle this!"
Hearing his senior brother's tone, Xiao Yuhan felt a little uncomfortable. He knew that his senior brother was really angry. After all, so many people had died today, and Li Qianyun, as the culprit, would certainly not escape death.
Xiao Yuhan slowly walked up to Li Qianyun and asked, "Qianyun, why? Why did you do these things?"
Li Qianyun looked up at Xiao Yuhan, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He respected this man and regarded him as his father. Now that he had done something wrong, he was speechless.
"Master...I'm sorry..."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuhan flew into a rage, "Do you know what you've done?! How many fellow disciples have died because of you! What good is it for you to apologize to me now!"
After saying that, Xiao Yuhan kicked Li Qianyun into a pillar, and then continued, "Answer my question, why did you do this!"
Li Qianyun coughed up a mouthful of blood, slowly rose, and then knelt down again in the same spot. "Master... Qianyun doesn't want to live like this forever. Do you remember? When you came to Lingsu City and saw me, you told me that as long as I followed you, I wouldn't have to suffer anymore, I would never be bullied again, and I could climb step by step to a height that no one would dare to look down on. You said that as long as I stood out from the crowd, but... Master, did you really care about me? After I came up the mountain, you only taught me one cultivation technique. Ever since Junior Sister Bai Yao came up the mountain, your attention has been focused on her, and you've stopped caring about us..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan coldly asked, "Do you know that the cultivation techniques and swordsmanship you learned were passed down from Su Yan, the founder of the Heavenly Sword Sect? Do you know that when I first came up the mountain, I also learned those cultivation techniques and swordsmanship, and only later did I slowly create the Azure Lotus Sword Art!"
Li Qianyun's expression was somewhat agitated, "But Junior Sister Bai Yao has indeed progressed too quickly, hasn't she? She's only fourteen years old. If it weren't for Master's meticulous guidance, would she have achieved her current strength? This disciple isn't blaming Master, but just hoping you can be fair to us. This disciple has worked very hard and has always wanted you to truly see me..."
"So you became Chen Gongming's disciple? What about your Moonfall Frost Sword Technique? Even if he's a Dao-Merging being, so what? To betray your sect for power, is this the result you wanted?"
Li Qianyun lowered her head, her body trembling uncontrollably.
"Master, I was wrong..."
Xiao Yuhan slowly stepped forward, a ruthless glint in his eyes. "Qianyun, people have varying degrees of talent. Some are born destined for greatness, while others struggle their entire lives but can never escape their fate. There are countless people in this world who are more talented and work harder than you. Cultivation is not about fighting and vying for power, but about cultivation itself. Because you are unique. Making mistakes is understandable, but choosing the wrong person could lead to utter ruin!"
