Before those Golden Core disciples self-destructed and activated their communication, these sect leaders and elders were discussing how to personally pursue Bai Tong back to the mountain.
After reviewing the information, Tong Su couldn't help but admire Feng Yinyue's deep cunning.
Betraying one's sect and plotting against the world, even if one is seriously injured, it is definitely one's own doing!
If it were the original owner of this body who was mentally deficient, today, that infamy and slander would be impossible to wash away, no matter how hard one tries.
—It's a pity.
The wind whispers and the moon scheming, yet they hadn't foreseen this.
That naive Bai Tong is now a completely different person!
"Ah Tong, I don't blame you for leaving me. I know you were scared. It's okay."
Feng Yinyue's eyes reddened, her voice choked with sobs, yet she bravely raised her face and said to the sect leader and the others, "Master, please don't blame A-Tong. It's all my fault. I didn't protect her well, which is why A-Tong panicked and ran to this Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave..."
The way he remained steadfast in protecting his junior sister despite being betrayed was so pure and noble, making one feel heartache and pity for him.
At least, the sect leader, the elders, and the disciples around them were heartbroken.
The sect leader said with heartache, "Yinyue, don't blame yourself. If it's going to rain, it's going to rain; if someone wants to betray the sect, you can't stop them. They committed heinous crimes themselves. The sect isn't an unreasonable place, and we won't blame you."
"You have dual spiritual roots of earth and wood, while she only has a single spiritual root of wood. She's usually lazy and doesn't cultivate. How can she compare to you, Senior Sister, who is diligent and earnest!"
"Yes, Senior Sister Yinyue, the sect leader has already said so, you can't cry for that ingrate! She said she ran away because she was scared, but who knows if she's already colluded with that demon and wants to join him?"
"It's only because you, Senior Sister Feng, treat her like a real junior sister and have always taken care of her. Bai Tong is such a vengeful person, she has never remembered your kindness!"
"Senior sister, look at her now, she's allied with demons. She might betray the righteous path and fall into demonic ways soon, she deserves to die!"
The disciples were indignant.
Although the sect leader ordered the news of Jingyang Immortal Lord's fall from grace to be kept secret, these core disciples still received the notification.
The Ziwei Heavenly Palace refused to reveal to the outside world that the newly appointed Demon Lord of the Demon Realm was none other than Jingyang Immortal Lord, the number one person of the righteous path. Ostensibly, it was to stabilize the situation between the righteous and demonic paths and prevent the righteous path from panicking, but in reality, it was a disgrace and they dared not say it out loud.
The reason this entire sect was able to become the leader of the righteous path is largely because it has this number one righteous person in charge. Other sects also have Mahayana cultivators who are all eyeing this leader's position.
Once they learn that Jingyang Immortal Lord, a paragon of righteousness, has fallen into demonic ways, how could they not attack the Ziwei Heavenly Palace?
If the Ziwei Heavenly Palace, which is being questioned by all the sects in the world, is still considered the leader, then things won't be so easy.
When Immortal Lord Jingyang was in the sect, he was so respected and admired. Now that he has fallen into demonic ways, those disciples and juniors who were once jealous and envious, who followed him around fawning and smiling, will now righteously despise him.
As a result, Bai Tong also became a universally reviled ingrate!
"No, Master, Uncle, Junior Brother, Junior Sister, it's all because of me. If I were stronger, A-Tong wouldn't have run away in fear..."
Tong Su finally raised her head, her clear eyes looking at the person in the swaying mirror image. She curled her lips without a smile, her voice cold and indifferent.
Yes, it's all because of you.
