Qin Hong's face grew even paler, but she looked directly at Feng Rong, whose face was filled with rage, and replied with difficulty, "I did go to that space, but... I didn't go there voluntarily, but... I was summoned there!"
"What did you say?!" Feng Rong was stunned for a moment, then became even angrier. "Nonsense! My entire clan is asleep. How can we summon people? And this Lei Yu... Your current situation is clearly due to the backlash from stealing Lei Yu!" The Phoenix Clan is asleep and has no power to resist, but the divine body of the Phoenix is a great temptation, not only for mortals but also for immortals and gods.
"I didn't! I don't know... what happened?" Blood flowed from the corner of Qin Hong's mouth even faster. "But... everything I said... is true!"
"Still trying to argue, you're asking for death..." A red light flashed in Feng Rong's hand, as if she couldn't resist burning the person in front of her to death.
"Feng Rong!" You You grabbed her and said in a deep voice, "Let her finish speaking!"
Feng Rong glanced at You You, tightened her grip on his hand, and then let go.
Qin Hong collapsed to the ground instantly, letting out a heart-wrenching cough. Hang Ye and the others rushed over immediately, helping her up and transferring their spiritual energy to her, all glaring angrily at Feng Rong.
You You ignored these people and looked directly at Qin Hong, who had calmed down considerably, and said in a deep voice, "Qin Tiannu, I owe you an explanation!"
Qin Hong gasped for breath, desperately suppressing the metallic taste of blood rising in her throat. She glanced at Feng Rong, whose face was contorted with rage, before speaking in a low voice, "I did... go to Wushan, but... I didn't do anything!"
"Hmph!" Before she could finish speaking, Feng Rong sneered, her face contorted with anger. "With your sudden increase in cultivation, plus the Thunder Feather within you, you still claim you did nothing? The Thunder Feather originally belonged to the Thunder Phoenix, and my clan is all dormant in the Sacred Tree space… Did you not steal this Thunder Feather? Or did the Thunder Phoenix personally give it to you?" Given the circumstances of his clan, it was impossible for them to hatch from their eggs and give away something like this. Now that the Thunder Feather was on her, Feng Rong didn't even dare to imagine how the other party had obtained it!
"You said it yourself, that's the sacred tree of the Phoenix Clan. How can a mortal like me enter the territory of the God Clan?!" Qin Hong said in a deep voice, and then let out another heart-wrenching cough, the kind that was filled with blood and foam.
"..." Feng Rong was taken aback, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes. Indeed, the Sacred Tree Space could not be entered without the guidance of the Phoenix Clan. In addition, after what happened with Qiu Yue last time, he had already added multiple seals to the entrance, making it impossible for even a god to break through easily.
Qin Hong paused for a moment, and seeing that the other party had calmed down, she turned to look at You You beside her, her expression hesitant. After a while, she continued, "You Tiannv, I admit, I really dislike you! It's all because of you that Qin Yan perished. She was my only friend, such a good person... Qiu Yue is despicable and shameless and deserves to die, but Qin Yan should never have died like this!"
“I have never believed what you said, that Qiu Yue went against the will of Heaven and caused Qin Yan’s death. When I saw her before, she still had several years to live, how could she have died like that… Over the years, I have been investigating the cause of Qin Yan’s death. That’s why… I went to Wushan.”
Qin Hong's eyes reddened, and she looked at You You with resentment and indignation. She took a deep breath, as if suppressing something, before continuing, "I only went to Wushan because I wanted to seek the truth. It's good that you found out. Even if I die here today, I will ask you clearly: how exactly did Qin Yan die back then? You Tiannu, you certainly have extraordinary abilities, and after dealing with Qiu Yue, you became a leader-like figure in the immortal sects. But can you say that your heart is completely open and that you have no secrets?"
"Bullshit!" Feng Rong couldn't help but say as soon as she finished speaking, "You mean you suspect that Youyou deliberately killed Qinyan?"
"I never said that..." Qin Hong snorted coldly, "It's just that after this incident, your True Exploration Sect is the biggest beneficiary, which makes it impossible for me not to have doubts!"
"you……"
"Feng Rong!" You You grabbed her, frowned, and glanced at her unwilling and angry eyes. After a while, she said in a deep voice, "I did hide some things about Qin Yan."
"..." Her eyes suddenly widened, revealing a hint of mockery, as if she had known it all along.
"You want the truth, is that it?" You You didn't expect that after all these years, someone would still doubt her because of Qin Yan's matter. Looking at Qin Hong, who showed no gratitude whatsoever despite being saved by them, and even harbored some inexplicable hostility, she became a little annoyed. She stepped forward and looked at her seriously, saying, "Fine, then I'll tell you the truth!"
"You..." Qin Hong was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting her to agree so readily, and looked at her with wide eyes.
“It’s just talk, and even if I did say it, you might not believe me.” You You took a deep breath, turned to Yuan Qi, and said, “Father Yuan, I remember there’s a spell called the Mind Transmission Technique, which can transmit and display a portion of memories to others, right?”
“That’s right.” Yuan Qi instantly understood what she meant and nodded. “I’ll take care of it.”
After saying that, he made a hand seal and gently touched Qin Hong's forehead, transmitting all the events that happened on the day Qiu Yue and Qin Yan perished to her. "This is the truth you wanted!"
A flurry of fragmented images flashed through Qin Hong's mind. Her expression shifted from initial anger, confusion, joy, and shock to final rage and disbelief, until she fell silent, her face blank with shock. After a long while, she slowly turned to look at You You, "This is..."
"Regarding Qin Yan's death, I did indeed omit a part of the truth I conveyed to the various factions!" You You said in a deep voice, "No! Not a part, but most of it... the truth about how this world was forced to restart three times."
Qin Hong was completely stunned, seemingly unable to react at all.
So that's how it is. So Qiu Yue has become so utterly depraved. All those tens of thousands of grievances, all those people who died unjustly time and time again. She suddenly understood why You Tiannu had summoned all the immortal sects, saying only that Qiu Yue had defied the heavens, failed to resurrect Qin Yan, and then both of them perished.
She had initially resented You Tiannv for ruining Qin Yan's reputation, even though Qin Yan had already fallen, she still wanted to use her friend to elevate her own. Little did she know, the truth was even more unbearable, and the current outcome was actually a cover-up deliberately done by You Tiannv to protect her friend.
It's important to understand that while Qiu Yue's crimes are indeed unforgivable, he became so ruthless because of Qin Yan, even dragging the entire Xianze down with him. And the reason he possesses such abilities is entirely due to the merits bestowed upon him by Qin Yan.
Although Qin Yan is innocent, this matter was caused by her. If the various factions knew the truth, would they really not hate Qin Yan? I'm afraid that it wouldn't be like it is now, with some criticism, but rather she would be regarded as a great demon like Qiu Yue.
Qin Hongguang couldn't accept the thought of such consequences. Her friend was a woman who was devoted to the world and never held back for the sake of the immortals, treating everyone, even mortals, with gentle and tender kindness!
