With irrefutable evidence, Li Yueyun had no way to deny it.
But no one understood his true intentions in doing this.
I haven't heard of any personal grudges between Li Yueyun and Su Hanjiang.
Even if he does, can't he just tolerate it?
Zheng Kaiyuan signaled the Eighth Elder to take Li Yueyun away and deal with him together after the investigation was completed.
Although the reason is unclear, Li Yueyun's crimes are conclusive, and now is the perfect opportunity to bring down Yueyun Manor.
If we don't add fuel to the fire now, it won't be so easy for Zheng Nansheng to trample Yueyun Manor under his feet once he comes out.
Although Zheng Nansheng is still just a child, he is exceptionally intelligent, shrewd in handling affairs, and has extraordinary talent.
Given time, he will definitely surpass Li Yueyun.
Why not take this opportunity to drag him down with us?
Seventh Elder Qiu Fan stood up and said, "Immortal Venerable, Li Yueyun's crimes are heinous and the evidence is conclusive. His three disciples in the Demon Beast Forest are also highly suspicious. Please, Immortal Venerable, order their recall."
Zheng Kaiyuan frowned slightly, seemingly displeased.
Fu Jiuzhou rebuked, "Seventh Elder, the sins should not be borne by one's wife and children. Don't you understand such a simple principle?"
Qiu Fan said, "Elder, such a serious crime deserves no punishment whatsoever. Moreover, these three disciples include Li Yueyun's daughter, the chief disciple, and a personal disciple. How can anyone believe they are innocent?"
Xi Louyue chuckled twice: "Oh~, how interesting. Seventh Elder, your son stole a demon beast from my beast garden last month. If you say you didn't instigate it, who would believe you?"
Qiu Fan's attempt to steal a chicken backfired spectacularly; he never expected that the Second Elder would expose this shameful affair for the sake of a junior like Zheng Nansheng.
In their verbal sparring, the Second Elder had never met his match.
The Grand Elder's statement was likely not only because Fu Xiao was also in Zheng Nansheng's group and he wanted to show favoritism, but also because he was concerned about the Immortal Venerable.
It's really not worth offending the three highest-ranking people in the Immortal Venerable's Mansion over such a trivial matter.
Qiu Fan could only swallow his plan, which he had been scheming for half a day, and look for another opportunity later.
Monster Forest
After Han He recovered, the three teams split up.
Before entering the Monster Forest, I thought a month would be a long time, but now it's almost halfway through.
Less than half of the fifty cultivators remain.
After the Lingxiao Beast, the group never encountered any more high-level demonic beasts, not even a fourth-level one.
There is no need to hunt monsters below the third rank unless they have special abilities.
Therefore, the Elders' Hall stipulated that only hunting high-level monsters would yield additional rewards, in order to prevent indiscriminate killing.
[Chu Yiming's Team]
After the incident with the Lingxiao Beast, Ye Wan became even more attached to Ding Yumin, cherishing the time they spent together.
Ding Yumin did not die.
Duan Xu did not give up; in fact, his cultivation level even broke through.
Zheng Nansheng obtained the Lingxiao Sword, and his relationship with Ye Wan rarely intersected.
Ye Wan did nothing, but everything deviated further and further from the original story.
Does that mean that those tragedies in the future will not happen?
Ye Wan felt her legs go numb, so she got up and hopped around a bit.
Something must have been stepped on, because it stirred up a thick fog.
When the thick fog dissipated, Ye Wan was gone.
The four members of the team were in a panic. Lou Yusheng immediately used the Stream Willow to search for them, but to no avail.
It seems that Ye Wan was swept away by something incredible.
To be able to do something so silently, that thing must be incredibly powerful.
It's even more terrifying than that Lingxiao Beast.
But why did it only capture Ye Wan?
Chu Yiming and his companions searched in the forest for several days without success, when they happened to run into Li Bing'er looking for Zheng Nansheng.
Zheng Nansheng also disappeared.
The only difference is that he disappeared in a different way than Ye Wan.
After the breakup, Zheng Nansheng had a nightmare that night and woke up in a state of frenzy.
He had never lost his composure like this before, and even Li Bing'er and the others couldn't control him.
Zheng Nansheng vented his frustrations and then disappeared.
The two disappeared at almost the same time.
But the ways they disappeared were completely different.
We don't know if it's the same thing that caused it.
If it was done by a monster to harm people, then why only capture these two people?
As Ye Wan hopped along, she found herself in an unfamiliar stone cave.
She stepped out of the cave, only to find her path blocked by a massive gust of wind.
This place seems to be at the bottom of a cliff.
Ye Wan attempted to break the formation.
This "break" does not mean breaking with magic, but simply destroying the objects that form the array.
Ye Wan had neither the patience to deal with the formation nor the intellect to devise a countermeasure.
As I approached, the gusts of wind seemed to make way for me as if they were consciously parting.
No matter which direction Ye Wan changed to, the wind formation would move aside, indicating that it did not intend to harm her.
However, every time Ye Wan tried to climb up the rock wall, she would be swept back down by the gust of wind.
If they don't let her go up, Ye Wan will stay put.
She has always been a person who takes things as they come.
Aside from being gluttonous and lustful, the thing I cherish most is my life.
Ye Wan wandered around at the bottom of the cliff and soon found Zheng Nansheng, who had fallen into a coma.
Zheng Nansheng was seriously injured; his entire face was pale.
Unlike Ye Wan's childish way of getting involved, Zheng Nansheng was directly swept into the wind when he was led to the bottom of the cliff.
The wind could have killed him outright, but it seemed to be intentionally torturing him little by little.
It seems there is an unspeakable resentment that can only be vented in this way.
Zheng Nansheng struggled for a long time before finally breaking free from the wind, but he was seriously injured and fainted.
