"I can't be right." The First Elder recalled the incident when Si Jin captured Du Yuxiu last time: "I think Si Jin is a good kid. There is no trace of demonic cultivation on him."
"Is it possible that Sect Master Mu concealed the traces of demonic cultivation on his body?"
As the elders were struggling to find a solution, Du Yuxiu seized the opportunity to interject.
"This disciple has some connections with the outer disciples of Qinyue Mountain. It is said that on the very first day the sect leader brought Tang Sijin back, he... broke the Path of Ruthlessness..."
Is this really true?
Upon hearing this, the elders became extremely anxious.
Mu Zong, who mainly cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness, had long been revered as an ancestor by the Demon Extermination Sect.
The Demonic Sect has been afraid of his power, and for many years they have not dared to step into the righteous sects.
A few days ago, when muffled thunder echoed from the top of Qinyue Mountain, several elders were already worried.
Could it really be as this junior disciple said, that the sect leader...?
The elders were worried, but considering that Mu Linyuan was on the mountain, they dared not trespass.
They had no choice but to carry the body back for a detailed analysis.
They wanted to study it in detail, but Du Yuxiu couldn't wait.
Upon closer examination, the Third Elder will surely discover that the poison originated from him. At that point, his soul will be stable, and his demonic cultivation characteristics will undoubtedly be revealed.
He's doomed!
So, after much persuasion and even with a sense of righteous indignation, he took Mu Linyuan's side and considered the matter.
"Elders, the Demonic Sect leader's family has twins. The current leader is named Tang Siling. How clean can Tang Sijin be?"
"Perhaps Sect Master Mu Linyuan is also possessed by that demonic creature Tang Sijin and urgently needs to be freed?"
"Otherwise, how could he abandon the Path of Ruthlessness, which he cultivated for three hundred years, so easily?"
"My main concern is that by the time we've finished our research, the sect leader will be controlled by that Tang Sijin!"
Out of consideration for the sect, the five elders ultimately sent a communication butterfly, asking Mu Linyuan to bring Si Jin down the mountain to handle the matter.
… …
When Mu Linyuan received the telepathic message, he had just come out of the hot spring.
Back in his bedchamber, he embraced his soft, gentle little disciple.
The voice of the communication butterfly was quite loud, startling Si Jin, who was in a light sleep, awake.
Mu Linyuan was displeased and immediately chased away the glowing butterflies, then tucked the blanket around Si Jin.
Si Jin simply turned around and grabbed a strand of his hair: "Your hair is all white now."
"It's okay, it just adds to the contrast with the beasts."
Si Jin chuckled softly, took the initiative to hug him, and kissed him.
Mu Linyuan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he grasped the boy's mischievous hand, scolding him, "Listen to your master and get some sleep."
"But I just heard from the telepathic butterfly that the Grand Elder and the others suspect I'm a demonic cultivator spy, deliberately trying to corrupt your Dao heart." Si Jin said, "Aren't you going down to deal with it?"
Mu Linyuan retorted sarcastically, "Are you a demonic cultivator?"
"yes."
After speaking, Si Jin withdrew her divine power, revealing all the reversed true energy within her body to Mu Linyuan.
A hint of danger flashed in her beautiful eyes as she asked directly, "Are you going to kill me?"
"I won't kill them." Almost simultaneously, Mu Linyuan blurted out these words.
He calmly pulled the person closer to him and explained, "The first time we did those things, I knew you were a demonic cultivator."
"But what does it matter?"
"Jinjin would rather endure the pain than let me go mad from cultivation. What kind of obedient demonic cultivator is she?"
"From then on, my ambition changed from protecting the righteous path to promoting peaceful coexistence between the righteous and the demonic sects."
Mu Linyuan is a model of righteousness, and for three hundred years, the idea that good and evil cannot coexist has been deeply rooted in people's minds.
Si Jin thought he would at least be surprised, or go through some internal struggle.
But I never imagined that his ambitions would change so quickly.
Ultimately, he underestimated Xiao Tianjun's love for him every time.
Or is it that the Heavenly Emperor's love for him is growing stronger every day?
