Wanxuan did not directly answer whether he was the leader of the Demonic Sect. He simply looked at Feng Guang and said calmly, "Just because of one sentence, Junior Sister is going to believe that I am the leader of the Demonic Sect?"
Before Feng Guang could answer, Qi Chang'an had already taken her hand and made her stand behind him. He smiled and said, "There's no smoke without fire. I think there's a reason why Wan Ge said that."
“Second Junior Brother might say that to exonerate himself,” Wan Xuan said gently, but his words were not without reason.
Qi Chang'an looked at Wan Ge and chuckled again, "Since Young Master Wan Ge has accused Young Master Wan Xuan of threatening you, I wonder if you could provide more details?"
“I…” Wan Ge glanced at Wan Xuan, his expression hardening. He spoke clearly, “Not long ago, I encountered the girl Hua Yan in the back garden, who was fleeing from pursuit. She told me that she had discovered Senior Brother’s true identity. Shortly after she told me this, Senior Brother caught up with us. What I found unbelievable was that Senior Brother’s martial arts were so unpredictable that I had no chance to fight back at all.”
"Wanxuan... his martial arts are actually better than yours?" Xia Chao asked naturally.
Wan Ge said, "Master, we were all deceived by him. We all thought he was only good at growing flowers, so his martial arts were weak. But he was just hiding it well. He captured Hua Yan and used Hua Yan's life to threaten me, making me do something for him... You all know what happened next."
"It seems that Young Master Wanxuan also knows that the matter of Bingchan saving Wanting is just a setup." Qi Chang'an smiled. "But it's better to be safe than sorry. Young Master Wanxuan also needs to ensure that nothing goes wrong. That's why he thought of having Young Master Wange handle this matter on his behalf."
If the plan succeeds, it will eliminate future troubles forever. If it fails, only Wan Ge will die in the trap, while Wan Xuan can remain innocent and uninvolved.
"Master, Mistress, Junior Sister..." Wan Ge said painfully, "I know I shouldn't have hurt Third Junior Brother, but... but I can't just watch Hua Yan..."
Feng Guang suddenly spoke up, "Second Senior Brother, you're wrong."
"I was wrong..." Wan Ge murmured, repeating the same sentence over and over.
"If he wanted to kill Hua Yan, he would have killed both of them when Hua Yan caught him committing the crime against his third senior brother."
Feng Guang stood behind Qi Chang'an, and Wan Xuan couldn't see her expression. He smiled habitually, "Does Junior Sister understand me well?"
"I don't know you. I only know that you won't kill Hua Yan. If I'm not mistaken, the A Jiu that Hua Yan met was also you. Perhaps... perhaps you have many other identities that we don't know about, after all, everyone says that no one can match the disguise skills of the Demonic Sect Leader."
"A-Jiu is indeed me." When Wan Xuan admitted this identity, his disguise as the eldest disciple of the Hidden Weapon Mansion was completely shattered. Now, he was simply Ling Jiusheng, the leader of the Demonic Sect.
Even Xia Chao had no choice but to believe it at this moment. He angrily said, "The dead Left-Handed Blade, the hallucinating Xiao Daxia, and the currently poisoned and unconscious Wanting... all of this is your doing!"
"Why does Lord Xia have to ask such a question?" Wan Xuan's aura suddenly changed. He stood with his hands behind his back, and his former ethereal demeanor was completely replaced by arrogance. He smiled slightly, revealing a wickedness that had never been seen before. "Our Holy Sect is called the Demonic Sect by your righteous sects. Since we are demons, then we should also be capable of all kinds of evil."
"The Demonic Sect has always been ruthless in its methods." Qi Chang'an's thin lips curled up. "I admire your ability to remain hidden in the Hidden Army Mansion for so many years under the identity of Wanxuan."
Wanxuan… no, now we should call him Ling Jiusheng, “Alliance Leader Qi was able to prove his innocence under such circumstances; it was truly a brilliant move.”
"Sect Leader Ling can rest assured, I only released Miss Hua Yan, I did not harm her," Qi Chang'an said with a half-smile.
Ling Jiusheng twitched the corners of his mouth, but there was no real smile, so the others didn't know what his attitude was towards those words.
Qi Chang'an and Ling Jiusheng, two men, had completely different auras. If it was a scene where the entire righteous path and Ling Jiusheng were facing each other, it would be more accurate to say that it was a confrontation between the two men, Qi Chang'an and Ling Jiusheng.
The atmosphere in the room fell into a deathly silence at that moment.
Just then, Feng Guang grabbed Qi Chang'an's hand and gritted her teeth as she forced out a voice, "You saw Hua Yan behind my back?"
“You can judge for yourself.” Qi Chang’an lowered his head without any backbone and said, “I only took one of her hairpins. I didn’t even touch one of her other hairpins.”
