Chapter 189 The Demon Cult Witch 18

Looking at the two distinct groups of people, Shen Qinghuai had a headache. He placed his right hand on the armrest of the armchair, and an invisible internal force spread outward, instantly shocking everyone present.

When everyone was silent, Shen Qinghuai snorted coldly: "Have you made enough noise!"

"I have been in seclusion for decades, and as soon as I came out, I saw you fighting among yourselves. You really disappoint me!"

Everyone hurriedly clasped their fists and apologized.

Shen Qinghuai didn't care whether their apology was sincere or false, and waved his hand and said: "Let's stop here for now." He took the second elder and the third elder and left. It

was not until Shen Qinghuai's back disappeared at the end of his sight that Sect Master Mu slowly stood up.

Shen Qinghuai is the founder of the Xuyang Sect. He never married and only accepted two disciples, one boy and one girl.

These two disciples are the master and mistress of Sect Leader Mu, and the parents of Fairy Wangyue.

In terms of seniority, Sect Leader Mu is Shen Qinghuai's disciple, but this disciple has only met Shen Qinghuai a few times. In Shen Qinghuai's mind, his weight is definitely not as heavy as that of the Wangyue family.

Shen Qinghuai has not abolished his position as the Sect Leader now, mostly because the second and third elders cannot produce substantial evidence. If Shen Qinghuai ever gets a handle on him, he will definitely not show mercy to his men.

It must be said that Sect Leader Mu really guessed right.

When only a few people were left around, Shen Qinghuai's face suddenly darkened, and he pointed at the noses of the second and third elders and scolded them: "Are you idiots? You want to abolish the leader without any evidence based on some guesses! What do you think you are as the leaders of a sect! It's not enough that you are making a fuss, but you also want to drag me to make a fuss with you!"

The two elders were old, and they were scolded by Shen Qinghuai like a grandson for a long time. They didn't dare to explain.

Seeing them like this, Shen Qinghuai calmed down a little: "Send all your people out to investigate Mu Jianye."

The two elders were overjoyed. It seemed that the ancestor was still on their side.

However, the Third Elder was still a little unwilling: "Grandmaster, are we going to do nothing during this period?"

Shen Qinghuai fiddled with the half tea leaf floating on the water and glanced at the Third Elder: "The suspicion on Mu Jianye has not been cleared, so we can't do anything to him in the short term, but it's not good to let him continue to manage the sect."

What this meant was to sideline Mu Jianye.

Without manpower and real power, what could Mu Jianye do with the title of head of the sect?

Mu Jianye soon got wind of the news, and the fourth elder asked anxiously, "Master, what should we do next?"

"What should we do?" Master Mu repeated the fourth elder's question and sneered, "I have been working diligently as the master for decades and have contributed so much to the Xuyang Sect. Is it possible that my prestige in the sect is not as good as that of a patriarch who has disappeared for decades?"

If Shen Qinghuai did not touch his interests, he would naturally not mind respecting and praising Shen Qinghuai and making Shen Qinghuai a mascot.

But if Shen Qinghuai wanted to deal with him, he was not made of clay and would never surrender.

The seventh elder was a little worried about Shen Qinghuai's strength. Shen Qinghuai was the best in the world before he went into seclusion. Now that he has been in seclusion for decades, his strength must have become even more unfathomable.

Sect Master Mu said firmly: "It is already very good that Shen Qinghuai can maintain his strength at his peak. It is impossible for him to be higher than his peak."

"Do you think he is in seclusion to pursue a higher level of martial arts? He has to do so!"

Several decades ago, Shen Qinghuai was seriously injured.

That serious injury caused Shen Qinghuai's foundation to be damaged and his realm to decline. In order to restore his strength and consolidate his realm, Shen Qinghuai had to pass the position of the sect master to his disciples and began to be in seclusion.

Therefore, Shen Qinghuai's strength may be very strong, but it will definitely not be so strong that people will despair and dare not resist.

Mu Jianye stroked the jade ring on his thumb, his eyes gloomy: "If he wants me to hand over the power of the leader, then I will hand it over. But he can't order my people around."

***

A sect can often only tolerate one voice.

When there are two completely opposite voices in a sect, it is difficult for the order to be fully conveyed to the people below.

Even if it is conveyed to the people below, there will be a situation of pretending to obey but secretly disobeying.

Other sects may not feel deeply about this, but Juexian Pavilion has been keeping an eye on Xuyang Sect, and can be said to be clear about the changes in Xuyang Sect.

After reading all the intelligence at hand, Yao Rong finally made a summary: "Their personnel arrangements have begun to become chaotic."

"Then should we continue to hold back or add fuel to the fire?" Chen Nan only found out some time ago that the current situation of the Xuyang Sect was caused by the Pavilion Master.

Yao Rong stood up, walked to the bookshelf beside him, and pulled out a stack of yellowed papers: "The Xuyang Sect's ability to investigate cases is too poor. After investigating for so long, they still haven't caught Mu Jianye's clues."

"Chen Nan, think of a way to secretly send these things to the third elder of the Xuyang Sect. Just consider it as my gift to the third elder."

***

In the past month, the third elder has been under tremendous pressure.

The second elder was to stay with Shen Qinghuai and help him with the affairs of the Xuyang Sect, while the investigation was to be left to the third elder.

However, either too much time had passed or Mu Jianye had done a good job of cleaning up the mess, and the third elder had not found anything useful after searching.

That day, the third elder was called over by Shen Qinghuai and scolded.

Shen Qinghuai also gave the third elder an ultimatum: "If you still can't find out the truth after ten days, let someone else who is more capable help you investigate!"

When the third elder left the hall, his back was soaked with cold sweat. When

the autumn wind blew, he shivered with coldness.

The third elder sighed, walked out with a sad face, and just as he returned to his residence, he ran into his disciple.

The third elder covered his sore shoulder and vented all his anger on his disciple: "Are you in such a hurry to walk? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"

The disciple said ecstatically: "Master, we finally found it!"

The third elder's eyes lit up, he snatched the letter from the disciple's arms, and read it quickly: "Okay, come with me to see the founder!"

Neither the third elder nor Shen Qinghuai doubted the origin of these letters.

After more than a month of hard work, isn't it normal to find out something?

During this month, Shen Qinghuai was very angry.

He was the founder of the Xuyang Sect. Before he went into seclusion, he had the final say in the sect, and no one dared to play tricks under his nose.

As a result, after decades of seclusion, the Xuyang Sect was no longer his world, and even the younger generation dared to compete with him in secret.

Now that evidence has finally been found and there is a reason to take down Mu Jianye openly, Shen Qinghuai led people directly into the headmaster's residence.

Mu Jianye was drinking with the fourth elder, and saw that Shen Qinghuai and his group were not friendly. Just as he was about to say something, he was hit in the chest by Shen Qinghuai.

In this palm, Shen Qinghuai used 100% of his strength.

Mu Jianye felt as if a huge rock had hit him. He covered his chest and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

Shen Qinghuai approached Mu Jianye like a ghost. With a flick of his sleeves, the wine on the table flew everywhere.

The wine, with its energy, all fell on Mu Jianye.

Mu Jianye was hit so hard that his body became unstable. He took several steps back and was tripped by the ornaments on the ground. He propped himself up with his hands and lay on the ground.

Shen Qinghuai stepped forward and tapped several acupuncture points to seal Mu Jianye's internal energy. He waved his hand and ordered: "Take him away first and put him in the water dungeon!"

"Grandmaster..."

The fourth elder just started to speak, but Shen Qinghuai interrupted him: "Fourth elder, right? Go and call the other elders over."

With solid evidence, even if the fourth elder and his friends were dissatisfied, they could only watch Mu Jianye's position as the head of the sect being abolished.

It was not enough to abolish Mu Jianye's position as the head of the sect. Shen Qinghuai also wanted to kill Mu Jianye to avenge his disciples.

But as soon as Shen Qinghuai gave the order, Mu Jianye was rescued from the water dungeon by the fourth and seventh elders.

"What's going on! Mu Jianye was imprisoned in the water dungeon. How did he get out!" Shen Qinghuai said angrily.

The third elder knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty: "Mu Jianye has been the head of the sect for 20 years. I don't know when he built a secret passage from the water prison to the outside world. They all escaped through the secret passage!"

"Waste! You are all waste!"

Shen Qinghuai no longer believed in the ability of the third elder and his men to do things, and decided to lead the team to chase

them personally. Unfortunately, he searched for a day and a night, but did not find Mu Jianye and his men.

Shen Qinghuai had a bad premonition in his heart.

Not long after, this bad premonition came true.

As soon as Mu Jianye escaped from Shen Qinghuai's capture, he stood up as the head of the Xuyang Sect and called on the martial arts world to attack Shen Qinghuai.

As soon as this news came out, the whole martial arts world was shocked.

When they first knew that Shen Qinghuai was still alive, they were so panicked, and now they felt how absurd it was.

Of course, Shen Qinghuai couldn't let Mu Jianye do what he wanted.

He stood up as the founder of Xuyang Sect, disclosed the evidence of Mu Jianye's crimes, and stated that Mu Jianye was no longer the leader of Xuyang Sect. He also declared that as long as someone could bring Mu Jianye's head to Xuyang Sect, he would be willing to give his treasured set of martial arts as a thank you gift.

A big reward will always bring a brave man. Mu Jianye had encountered more assassinations in his life than he had in the past few days.

"Since you want my life, don't blame me for not caring about our friendship!"

Mu Jianye's behavior became more and more crazy.

He directly disclosed many secrets about Xuyang Sect.

Once these secrets were made public, the interests of Xuyang Sect were immediately greatly damaged.

Having been the head of the sect for twenty years, there is no secret in the Xuyang Sect that Mu Jianye doesn't know. In order to prevent Mu Jianye from revealing more secrets, Shen Qinghuai decided to leave the Xuyang Sect and personally solve Mu Jianye's problem.

...

"What a wonderful dog-eat-dog game!"

Wen Wu felt relieved after eating today's melon.

Chang Yue sighed: "No wonder the Pavilion Master was not worried at all when he knew Shen Qinghuai had come out of retreat. I think the Pavilion Master had already anticipated today's situation at that time."

Chen Nan looked at Yao Rong: "Pavilion Master, Shen Qinghuai has left Xuyang Sect, and Xuyang Sect's defense must be much worse than before. We..."

Yao Rong nodded and looked around at everyone: "Yes, now is the best time to take down Xuyang Sect. Everyone go back and make preparations. Tomorrow morning, follow me and rush to kill Xuyang Sect!" Everyone

was overjoyed and got up and walked out. After a while, only Yao Rong and Axi's mother and daughter were left in the hall.

Axi stepped forward and put the black cloak in her arms on Yao Rong's shoulders, with a faint worry on her face.

Yao Rong tilted his head and looked at A Xi: "Do you want to go?"

"Me?" A Xi was a little surprised, "If I go, will I hinder you and mother?"

"No." Since Yao Rong took the initiative to ask A Xi whether she wanted to go, it means that he is sure to protect A Xi. "You left Xuyang Sect, it has been two years. Since the day I took you away from Xuyang Sect, I have been thinking about when I can take you back."
