Shen Zhaozhao was being pulled by the collar and choked, and she cursed Yan Qiubai, this useless teammate, a hundred times in her heart, but she still had to keep up the act.
She glared at him angrily, her eyes screaming, "You idiot, cooperate with me!" but she kept trying to cover it up, her voice even more "indignant" and "righteous" than before.
"Junior Uncle! I know you were exposed in public and are filled with grief and indignation! But... but it concerns Elder Qingxuan's life!"
"What does face matter compared to the elder's life?! If you dare to do it, you should dare to take responsibility!"
"Sect Leader, you are wise! Although I do not know the details of Senior Sister Liu's situation, I think... Senior Sister Liu is probably just a cover-up used by Junior Uncle and Elder Qingxuan to conceal the truth!"
"If it weren't for Senior Sister, Junior Uncle would be running to the Weapon Refining Pavilion every day. Wouldn't his intentions be far too obvious?!"
Yan Qiubai: "???"
Yan Qiubai was almost fainting. He staggered a step, his legs trembling.
What does face matter?!
That...that sounds so damn familiar!
Last time in Yuntai Immortal City, didn't that heartless little brat say the same thing to him so confidently and righteously?!
Combined with the fact that although the person in front of him had an ordinary-looking face, there was a cunning look in his eyes, a unique tone when he talked nonsense, and a reckless, suicidal attitude...
Yan Qiubai's pupils dilated in shock, and he gasped sharply!
Damn it!!!
It was you!
Sink! Reveal! Reveal! !!
Yan Qiubai felt his vision blurring, and his hand clutching "Lu Renjia's" clothes trembled uncontrollably.
He knew it! He knew it!
As long as he runs into Shen Zhaozhao, his already dwindling face is destined to be repeatedly rubbed and trampled on!
Last time it was about pulling down Gu Xuanchen's underwear in Yuntai Immortal Market, this time it's even more outrageous!
Just force him to cut his sleeve!
Yan Qiubai was so angry that his soul was trembling. He wished he could immediately strip Shen Zhaozhao of her disguise and then hang her up and beat her severely!
Can……
Her words, "It concerns Elder Qingxuan's life," were like a cold nail, pinning down all his impending anger and grievances.
Yes.
Although Shen Zhaozhao is a scoundrel, she would never joke about Senior Brother Qingxuan's life.
Since she chose to break the deadlock in such a shocking and self-destructive way, she must have figured out that this was the fastest and most effective way to muddy the waters.
Compared to his senior brother's life... his pride is nothing...
If you don't want it, then don't want it...!
Thinking of this, Yan Qiubai suddenly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, as if he wanted to inhale all the grief and grievances in the world into his lungs.
When he opened his eyes again, all that remained in his eyes was a kind of almost heroic, reckless numbness.
He slowly released his grip on Shen Zhaozhao's clothes, and then, in the deathly silence of the hall, with all eyes focused on him, Yan Qiubai slowly turned around to face Lingxiao Zhenren, who sat high above him with a face so gloomy it could drip water.
He lowered his head slightly and spoke in a tone that seemed to have exhausted all his strength, tinged with humiliation, yet forced to admit it, each word uttered slowly and deliberately, his voice dry and strained.
“...'Junior Brother Lu'...is right.”
"I do have a secret affair with Senior Brother Qingxuan."
"What happened to Senior Sister Liu... was... was just a cover-up..."
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, accompanied by blood and a heartbroken sound.
"puff--!!!"
Qingxuan, who was struggling to regulate his breathing, could no longer suppress his surging blood and qi upon hearing this, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, this time purely out of anger.
His vision went completely black, and he was about to fall straight backward. Only one thought was swirling wildly in his mind—this life… is better off without it…
"Senior brother!"
Yan Qiubai was terrified and forgot all about acting. He lunged forward and grabbed the man, frantically stuffing pills into his mouth, his voice trembling with tears, "Senior brother, hold on! Don't scare me!"
Everyone: "!!!"
All the disciples inside and outside the hall stared wide-eyed, their eyes wide like copper bells.
It's confirmed!
This is absolutely solid proof!
Look how nervous Junior Uncle is!
She looks like she's about to cry!
If this isn't true love, they'd twist their heads off and use them as footballs!
No wonder, no wonder Junior Uncle used to go to the Weapon Refining Pavilion all the time!
So he wasn't there to hone his skills, but to meet his lover in secret!
No wonder Senior Sister Liu Qingyi ignored him later!
So she was used as a shield and was heartbroken!
Everything is explained, and all the logic makes sense!
Yun Wan'er's face turned deathly pale instantly, her fingertips digging deeply into her palms, causing sharp pain.
no!
Absolutely not!
If this accusation of homosexuality is proven true, then her accusation that Qingxuan had ulterior motives will become a huge joke!
She absolutely will not allow it!
"Master!"
Yun Wan'er suddenly raised her head, tears streaming down her face, but her voice was sharp and angry, as if she had been deceived. "Don't believe them! This must be a story they came up with on the spot to exonerate Elder Qingxuan!"
"If Junior Uncle and Elder Qingxuan had a secret affair, why was there never any word of it within the sect? Why did it have to be exposed now?"
"Moreover, everyone in the sect knows that Junior Uncle is in love with Senior Sister Liu! How much has he done for Senior Sister Liu? Could all that deep affection have been just an act?!"
