Seeing this, Qiu Honglei couldn't help but say, "Master, I've discovered that these righteous people are even more shameless than the demonic sect. We're clearly evil, but these people are clearly harboring wicked intentions, yet they speak so righteously."
Yun Jianyue sneered repeatedly: "You only realize this now? They are no different in essence from our Demonic Sect... Bah, our Holy Sect. Our biggest disadvantage is that we don't know how to do these superficial things, which is why everyone hates us. On the contrary, they can fool a bunch of fools."
Qiu Honglei muttered, "But I see that you are quite proud of these things, Master, and you haven't asked us to improve."
"Of course I'm proud. If I were so hypocritical, wouldn't I be going to be complicit with these guys?" Yun Jianyue replied matter-of-factly.
Qiu Honglei: "..."
It seems unlikely that the image of the Holy Church will be changed anytime soon.
At this moment, Wan Tongtian and Master Huoling were both shocked and furious, as their combined strength was no match for so many other factions joining forces.
So Wan Tongtian said to Wang Wuxie, "Senior Brother Wang, you are the host here, aren't you going to say something?"
Wang Wuxie didn't really care, since the Zhengyang Sect was currently the strongest.
However, since most people now support checking, he didn't want to offend the public, especially since Li Changsheng also supported checking.
In his view, Li Changsheng was an elder of Baiyujing and Yan Xuehen's senior brother, so he naturally represented Yan Xuehen's intentions.
So he smiled slightly and said, "Since everyone thinks we should check, I think it's fine to check. Palace Master Wan, Abbess Huoling, you don't need to worry too much. You are all prominent figures. In front of so many disciples, you wouldn't dare to embezzle your treasures."
Upon hearing this, Wan Tongtian's expression darkened; as expected.
So he whispered to Master Huoling, "Junior sister, why don't we just let them check? We'll keep an eye on things. If they really want to embezzle, we can make a scene later."
Master Huoling's expression shifted between light and dark. Although she had a bad temper, she was not the kind of reckless person who would do anything without thinking. She knew that with the current disparity in strength, a real falling out would not be good for Biluo Palace.
However, she felt quite humiliated to actually agree to let them inspect her. Her apprentice had defeated the chief disciple, and instead of honor, she was met with all sorts of interrogations and suspicions.
Just as they were caught in a dilemma, a cold voice suddenly rang out: "It seems you haven't asked for my opinion yet?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zu An, who seemed to be harboring a hidden anger.
Upon hearing Zu An speak, Pei Mianman, who had been somewhat apprehensive on the stage, smiled. However, she quickly became worried again. After all, those present were all big shots from various sects. Although Zu An was powerful, he was still too young compared to them.
Yun Jianyue snorted softly, "I knew it. Your womanizing boyfriend would never let go of such a chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress."
Qiu Honglei, worried that her master would be angry, hurriedly explained for him: "That makes me admire him even more. Even if he goes against the world, he will protect his woman."
"You're not jealous at all?" Yun Jianyue stared at him in surprise.
“Why would I be jealous?” Qiu Honglei’s eyes sparkled. “I was thinking that if I were on stage right now, he would definitely stand up to everyone for me.”
Yun Jianyue was taken aback, opened her mouth, but did not say anything.
At this moment, Elder Xu from Mount Luofu snorted coldly: "This is an internal matter of our Daoist sect, why should we ask for your opinion?"
