"Mother, how can you say that? Who is your daughter?" Yun Helan questioned sharply.
When Yun Helan asked the same question again, Yun Wanyan no longer maintained her previous indifferent attitude. This time, she gave a definite answer.
“You are not my daughter. Your biological mother is the woman next to you.”
These words shocked everyone present. The entire Discipline Hall was instantly as if a drop of water had fallen into a pot of boiling oil.
"What's going on? Is what Master Ziyun said true?"
"I don't know, but looking at them like this, they do look somewhat similar."
"Yeah, yeah, could this be one of those stories about a cat replacing the prince in a parable?"
"That's possible. But where is Master Ziyun's biological daughter?"
The disciple next to him nudged the man who had asked the question on the shoulder and whispered, "Have you forgotten what happened yesterday? That woman claimed to be Yun Qing's mother, but the kinship test showed that they were not related by blood."
Yun Qing's eyes widened slightly as she listened to the chattering discussion.
Unexpectedly, Yun Wanyan only gave one sentence, and these people were able to piece together the truth.
While others might just be speculating and watching the show, Yun Helan and Liu Ruyan were genuinely anxious.
"Mother, what are you saying? How could I not be your daughter?"
"That's right, how could I, a mere mortal, have a daughter with spiritual roots?"
Although they knew that Yun Wanyan probably already knew everything, the two still tried to struggle.
Yun Wanyan didn't want to pay any more attention to the two of them. Anyway, after today, they wouldn't be able to cause any more trouble.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you to bear witness today. As I just said, Yun Helan is not my daughter. My real daughter is Yun Qing."
As she spoke, she took out the kinship rites that everyone had just seen yesterday, took Yun Qing's hand and placed it on them, while placing her own hand on the other side.
A short while later, the kinship instrument emitted a blue light, casting a circle in the air.
Yun Qing was stunned, unsure how to react. She didn't know when Yun Wanyan had found out about this, but it didn't matter, as it saved her a lot of trouble.
When the kinship test results came out, everyone was shocked once again.
"I can't believe it, it's actually true."
"It's not surprising, really. Sect Leader Yan Qing and True Person Ziyun both have single spiritual roots. Logically, their children should at least have single spiritual roots. Yun Helan's talent is too unreasonable."
“Yes, I never doubted it before, but now that I think about it, it seems that Yun Qing inherited the talent of Sect Master Yun.”
From the moment Yun Wanyan conducted the paternity test on the spot, Yun Helan's face turned ashen, but she could only insist that she knew nothing about it.
"I don't know, I don't know anything about this. Besides, I'm accusing Yun Qing of murdering a fellow disciple. Does being the sect leader's daughter give her the right to harm people at will?"
Now that things have come to this, she is determined to prove Yun Qing guilty of murdering her fellow disciple. Even if it means death, she will drag her down with her.
"Want to harm people? Senior Sister, you really dare to speak your mind." Yun Qing sneered, "Since you want to sue me, then let's settle the score." After saying that, Yun Qing clapped her hands.
The next moment, Gu Changyuan brought someone over and said to Yun Helan, "Senior Sister, take a look, do you recognize this person?"
Yun Helan looked at the timid, black-clad man before her, completely bewildered: "Who is this person? How do I know him?"
The others were also puzzled, wondering why someone would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
Among the onlookers, Xiao Lefeng was extremely nervous, afraid that someone would notice him. But fate had other plans. The man in black below the hall searched for a long time before his eyes lit up when he saw him.
“It’s him!” He pointed at Xiao Lefeng and said, “He came to me before and asked me to taint a little girl with demonic energy. This is the portrait he gave me.”
Gu Changyuan took the portrait and unfolded it in front of everyone. The portrait depicted Yun Qing.
The discipline elder raised his hand to signal, and the discipline disciples immediately stepped forward and took Xiao Lefeng to the ground.
Then, the elder in charge of law enforcement asked, "Xiao Lefeng, why did you allow this demonic cultivator to taint Yun Qing with demonic energy?"
Xiao Lefeng lowered his head and remained silent. Yun Wanyan said, "If you are unwilling to speak, then you will be punished directly for the crime of murdering a fellow disciple."
Looking at everything before her, Yun Helan knew that their secret dealings had been exposed. They were now in the same boat, and fearing being implicated, she interjected, "Can we really convict our senior brother based solely on this person's testimony? That's not fair!"
"One-sided story?" Gu Changyuan repeated Yun Helan's words, a mocking smile on his face: "I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."
He then took two items from the man in black.
"The two things I have in my hand are Baiyun Peak's communication jade tablet and a recording stone, which contains a record of Xiao Lefeng's conversation with this demonic cultivator. I wonder if this can be considered irrefutable evidence?"
The elder in charge of law enforcement took the two items and examined them. He then made a definitive judgment: "With both witnesses and physical evidence, Xiao Lefeng of Baiyun Peak is guilty of harming his fellow disciples."
Xiao Lefeng was stunned. He hadn't given the demonic cultivator a communication jade tablet. Could it be that he stole it? And there was also a recording stone. He hadn't expected the demonic sect members to be so insidious.
Thinking of the punishment for harming his fellow disciples, his body trembled involuntarily, and he hurriedly said, "It was all my junior sister. Yun Helan wanted to teach Yun Qing a lesson, so she made me do this."
Yun Helan was surprised that he had confessed so easily, and her face turned fierce: "What nonsense are you talking about? You were the one who offered to stand up for me, how could it be that I ordered you to do it?"
