Chapter 211 Killing the Master
"Moonlight!"
The shocked roar jolted Li Yuehua awake.
Li Yuehua's eyes were filled with confusion. She seemed to have been lost in thought for only a moment, but she was no longer in the same place.
Who is calling her?
It's Yun Qingyu. Why does he look so excited?
Why is she holding the Joyful Sword in her hand?
She slowly raised her eyes, following the blade to the tip.
The other end of the sword was embedded in Elder Qin's chest.
"Master!"
Elder Qin was not completely dead yet, and his gaze toward her was filled with disbelief.
Li Yuehua's hands went limp, and she couldn't even hold the sword.
"Master! How are you?!"
She hurriedly let go and took out handfuls of pills from her storage pouch.
"Master, Master, wait! Don't die! Hold on..."
"Take your medicine! Take your medicine now!"
Elder Qin grasped her hand, blood gushing from his mouth as he struggled to hold on.
The mentor of many years gradually softened in front of Li Yuehua and knelt on the ground.
Li Yuehua also knelt on the ground, her tone helpless, her voice choked with sobs, "Master, Master, what happened? What have I done?"
Elder Qin's gaze had already become unfocused. He murmured, "Yuehua, quickly... quickly escape..."
These were the last words her mentor, who had raised her, said to her.
Killing one's master is a grave crime; if she goes back, she will surely die.
After saying this, Elder Qin collapsed heavily to the ground.
"Master!"
Li Yuehua was heartbroken. "Master, you can't die. Your disciple hasn't repaid your kindness yet, Master..."
The next second, a sword was held against her neck.
Yun Qingyu gritted her teeth, "Li Yuehua, how could you do such a thing! These four elders are all our teachers and mentors, why did you have to kill them!"
Li Yuehua suddenly looked up.
Sure enough, not only Elder Qin, but the other elders also became corpses.
Elders of Jinxiao Sect, Elders of Kongshan Sect, and... Elder of Qingmu Sect who held the mace she had modified into a magic weapon.
They were just walking with her, chatting and laughing together.
At this moment, they have all become cold corpses.
Li Yuehua looked at her hands with trembling hands and then realized that her body was covered in splattered blood.
This contains the blood of her master and the blood of her loving elders.
She murmured, "How could this happen..."
Oh, right!
That masked man!
Li Yuehua was about to go find him, but she was stopped by Yun Qingyu as soon as she took a step.
"Yue... Li Yuehua! You have committed such a heinous crime, where do you think you are going!"
Li Yuehua grabbed his arm with her other hand, "A demon came just now. It was him. I must find him and avenge my master."
Yun Qingyu was stunned for only a moment before frowning. "I and the other disciples have been guarding the exit the whole time and have never seen any evil spirits. I witnessed you killing Elder Qin with my own eyes. You must come back to the sect with me to be punished."
Li Yuehua shook him off, "We've known each other for a hundred years. Do you think I would kill my mentor?"
Her eyes were bloodshot from the recent events, which startled Yun Qingyu.
Li Yuehua took a deep breath. "That evil spirit must still be around here. Tell the disciples that he killed the four elders, and send a telepathic message to the sect to send people over. Once the real culprit is found, I will explain the truth to the sect leader and ask him to judge me according to my crimes. But right now, I cannot be imprisoned."
That masked man did this to force her to sever ties with Dao Xiu so he could become the patriarch of the Wuqi Clan. She absolutely cannot let him have his way!
After saying these words, Li Yuehua walked outside.
In her view, having known each other for a century, he would surely believe in her and help her.
Just as she was about to leave, a rope suddenly flew towards her and tied her up tightly.
She struggled a few times, "What do you mean by this!"
Yun Qingyu's face showed reluctance. "Yuehua, I saw you kill someone with my own eyes. Even if there are two of us... I cannot help the wicked. Besides, if you are truly innocent, the sect leader will make his own judgment. You should stop struggling."
Facing Yun Qingyu's rigid and serious face, Li Yuehua heard Ghost Face's words echo in her ears, "I will show you just how hypocritical Daoist cultivators can be."
My heart was churning with blood and qi, and a strange thought inexplicably came to mind.
They can't stop you, fight your way out.
Realizing what she was thinking, Li Yuehua was startled.
No!
She didn't kill anyone. Even if she returns to the sect, the sect leader, being a demigod, is compassionate and will surely find the real culprit.
-
The day the elders' bodies were transported back to the Tianmen Sect, the entire sect was filled with grief.
"How could this happen! Who killed them?!"
"Is that...Senior Sister Yuehua, who's tied up in the back?"
"It was her! She killed several elders!"
"Li Yuehua is of bad character and her behavior is always inappropriate. It must be her!"
"Give back the elder's life!"
"Kill the demoness and avenge her!"
"..."
As Li Yuehua was led up Tianmen Mountain, she was surrounded by disciples glaring at her angrily.
She was met with glares, spittle, and the more radical disciples secretly using their spiritual power to try and make her suffer.
Every face was both so familiar and so strange.
She tried to say something, but no one could hear her amidst the cacophony.
Upon returning to her sect, Li Yuehua waited to meet the sect leader.
It wasn't just to defend himself, but also to catch the murderer as soon as possible.
She waited for a long time.
What awaited them was a death sentence from the sect.
For some reason, Chu Wei decided to break into the prison, but she knocked him unconscious and threw him out.
On that very day, the people of the Discipline Hall, fearing she would escape, pierced her back with chains.
"hiss-"
"It really fucking hurts."
The masked man appeared while Li Yuehua was taking the pills.
He appeared in the cage without anyone noticing, looking down at her.
Do you regret it?
He pointed to the disciples outside who had just been executed, saying, "If you had come with me that day, they would all be ants under your feet now."
Li Yuehua's back was aching, but she didn't move. Instead, she grabbed another handful of medicine and stuffed it into her mouth.
A short, golden staff was offered to her.
"With this, you can leave this place, and the Heavenly Gate Sect, and the entire world, will grovel at our feet."
Li Yuehua didn't take it, but instead chewed the pills loudly.
The ghost-faced man's voice was even colder than the prison itself, "You have seven days left before you are sent to the Nine Nether Platform. You don't have much time to think about it."
After saying this, he disappeared into the cage, ignoring Li Yuehua's actions behind him.
...
The day before Li Yuehua's execution, the sect leader showed special leniency and allowed Yun Qingyu to come and see her.
The two had different paths and could not work together, so they parted on bad terms.
Not long after Yun Qingyu left, the masked man who had disappeared for several days reappeared.
"Tomorrow, your soul will be scattered to the winds. Are you willing to die like this?"
Li Yuehua sat leaning against the railing, her clothes stained with blood and her hair disheveled.
Hearing his words, she looked up and laughed, "I also have a question for you."
The masked man paused slightly. "What?"
"You've been pretending in the sect for so many years, aren't you tired?"
