Chapter 88 88 Su Xiaoyuan even confronted the heroine
I have to say, it feels good to have someone on your side.
Su Xiaoyuan was very grateful to Brother Fu for his righteous words. It would have been better if he had not criticized the heroine.
Ever since she entered the secret realm, she has tried her best to avoid conflicts with the heroine. If it was the old popular silly and sweet heroine, it would be fine, but this heroine is the black-hearted and scheming heroine that became popular after readers were made rebellious by the silly and sweet heroine. She is a vengeful and never-ending grudge. She is a perfect match for the villain-type hero. They fight back and forth, and even have a fruitful palace fight in the hero's magic palace.
The most frequently used words in the comments section are "not a saint" and "it feels so good to be slapped in the face". Su Xiaoyuan also felt very happy when she was a reader, because those cannon fodders were all stupid and suicidal, and they just wanted to be slapped in the face by the heroine. But now the cannon fodder turned out to be herself, which is not so pleasant.
However, the ignorant Fu Daoyou had already offended the heroine for her, and it would be unreasonable for her to hide behind him again.
It would be better to draw the heroine's anger back to yourself to avoid involving others.
Su Xiaoyuan gritted her teeth and imagined Elder Liu possessing her. "Is this difficult for Fellow Daoist Ling? I'm sorry, I thought I could see it with my eyes."
After saying this, she felt that her death was not far away.
As the leader of the Lin family's generation, Ling Sangrou had never been scolded so sharply in her life. There were many open and covert struggles in the big families, but they were all insinuations and witty attacks, never this direct, and they happened one after another.
This was a blind spot in her knowledge, and she didn't know how to react for a moment.
She almost lost her temper, her face flushed red, she was shaking with anger, and she almost blurted out what they had done.
Did they really think she was a fool? Of course, He Huan Nu had been tipped off. Third Uncle Ming Xin Dao Jun was the world's foremost cultivator of magic. Perhaps she was the one who set up the formation in this secret realm.
Thinking of how her master told her, as if presenting a treasure, that the criteria for this selection were "moral character and devotion to the Tao," she felt both humiliated and amused.
When others reveal the answers, they really reveal the answers, but when her good master reveals the answers, he actually makes things worse.
If she really believed these high-sounding words, she wouldn't even be able to pass this trial, and wouldn't even have the chance to appear before Immortal Master Ling Yue, let alone anything else.
Ci'en Daojun was a good man, but he wasn't a good master who would fight for or scheme for his disciples. He had achieved his current position by virtue of being an early disciple and having a good junior brother, without competing or vying for power. At the top, being a good person is fine, but she was still at the foot of the mountain. If she didn't climb, she would be stepped on by others. His approach simply wouldn't work.
She regulated her breathing and gradually calmed down.
Third Uncle can be partial and corrupt, but she can't slap her in the face. She can only point it out and it would be better if someone else could say it out.
It’s a pity that the female cultivator named Tao was eliminated too early, otherwise many things that she was not convenient to say could be said through her mouth.
She glanced at the remaining people and her eyes fell on the male cultivator in green.
He has good cultivation and an average family background. He always agrees with her and obviously has a good impression of her.
She had a plan in mind, and just as the male cultivator was secretly glancing at her, she met his eyes.
The green-clothed male cultivator was indeed secretly in love with Ling Sangrou. He looked at her worriedly and saw that she was biting her lip and her face was flushed. There seemed to be tears in her eyes, but she was trying hard to hold them back. The beautiful woman with a clear and elegant temperament was proud and stubborn, like a crane in distress.
He couldn't help but get excited and stepped forward: "Fellow Daoist Fu is too aggressive. No wonder Fellow Daoist Ling has doubts. Fellow Daoist Su discovered the difference in the formation so easily. It's too coincidental. Not to mention Fellow Daoist Ling, I am also confused..."
Fu Shiyu tilted his head to look at him: "What is your name, fellow Taoist?"
The green-robed male cultivator felt an inexplicable jolt of emotion in his heart, as if he were being stared at by a wild beast. Cold sweat broke out on his back, and the heroic spirit of rescuing his beloved, the intoxicated feeling of having his feet off the ground, disappeared in an instant. He stammered, "My surname is Ge, and my name is Heshang..."
Su Xiaoyuan even confronted the heroine. Now she is in a state of being half-dead and half-alive. She is not worried about having too many debts and does not care about offending another heroine's lackey: "Fellow Daoist Ge, are you trying to accuse me of cheating? Why don't you ask Fellow Daoist Ling, is cheating allowed in the secret realm of Taiyan?"
Ling Sangrou was shocked by the shamelessness of this Hehuan woman.
The male cultivator in green felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, too embarrassed to raise his head: "That's not what I meant..."
"What a useless fellow!" Ling Sangrou felt disgusted, but since she still had use for him, she gave him a grateful look. "Justice is in the hearts of the people. There's no point in us arguing here until tomorrow. The entire Secret Realm Trial has been recorded. I believe our Grandmaster will make a fair judgment."
The green-clothed male cultivator nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Fellow Daoist Ling is right."
Wang Maoshu had been watching the show from the side until this moment, squinting his eyes and saying leisurely: "I believe that the great Tai Yan would not allow cheating."
Everyone could hear that there was something else behind his words.
Ling Sangrou: "What do you think, Fellow Daoist Wang?"
Wang Maoshu: "Rather than making absurd guesses like revealing the answer to the question, I have another idea."
He kept everyone in suspense for a while before continuing, "My fellow Taoists, it seems you've been blinded by one thing. The secret of the formation is also known to the monster that killed people yesterday."
He paused and said, "Thanks to Fellow Daoist Ling's words earlier, I was reminded that monsters are insidious and cunning, and like to attach themselves to living people to hide their tracks. Then I remembered that Fellow Daoist Fu and Fellow Daoist Su were attacked by monsters in the forest last night. Maybe they were taken advantage of at that time."
Ling Sangrou: "Why didn't Fellow Daoist Wang say anything just now?"
Wang Maoshu: "Firstly, there's no evidence, and secondly, I was worried about alerting the enemy. As a result, it was Daoist Su's 'discovery' of the formation that gave us away. We just speculated that a demon possessed a living being and passed through the formation, and Daoist Su 'discovered' that there was something wrong with the formation. Isn't that too much of a coincidence?"
Ling Sangrou looked at the male cultivator in green clothes: "Fellow Daoist Ge, what do you think?"
The green-clothed male cultivator said, "I think what Fellow Daoist Wang said makes sense."
Ling Sangrou looked troubled. "But to confirm whether it's been possessed by a demon, we need to investigate the spirit palace. Fellow Daoist Su..."
When Su Xiaoyuan heard this, her face turned pale.
She had heard that checking the soul palace would be painful, and the pain was secondary. The more important thing was the humiliation, which was equivalent to a mental body search in the world of immortal cultivation.
Wang Maoshu: "I believe that Fellow Daoist Su doesn't mind proving his innocence, right?"
Su Xiaoyuan's nose felt sore and she tried hard not to cry, but her voice couldn't stop trembling: "Of course I mind, you have no right to check my spiritual palace!"
Wang Maoshu sneered: "Only monsters are afraid of searching their spirit palaces. If Fellow Daoist Su has a clear conscience, why are you afraid of our search?"
Su Xiaoyuan knew that he was just making excuses, but she was so angry that her head was buzzing. She couldn't think of any words to refute him and could only repeat: "You have no right to investigate my spiritual palace..."
Fu Shiyu said, "So, Fellow Daoist Wang is clear-minded and isn't afraid of us searching his spiritual palace?"
Wang Maoshu immediately turned his attention to him. "Come to think of it, Fellow Daoist Fu is also a big suspect. I remember you were injured in a fight with a monster last night. It's easy for a monster to take advantage of you. Do you dare to let us search?"
Fu Shiyu said without hesitation: "Of course."
Su Xiaoyuan said anxiously, "No! Fellow Daoist Fu, don't agree to him. We are all here for the trial, they can't force us..."
Wang Maoshu smiled and said, "We really can. In the secret realm, apart from killing each other for no reason, all other necessary means can be used. In this situation, to prevent monsters from infiltrating the team, searching the Spirit Mansion is very necessary. Of course, for the sake of fairness, we can vote. Who among you disagrees with searching the Spirit Mansion?"
Fu Shiyu remained calm, Ling Sangrou acted as if it had nothing to do with her, and some of the others looked away, while others lowered their heads in embarrassment.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Su is the only one who objects," Wang Maoshu said with satisfaction, "Fortunately, the other fellow Daoists all know the rules."
He looked at Fu Shiyu and was about to make a hand gesture: "Daoyou Fu, I'm sorry for offending you."
Fu Shiyu: "Wait."
Wang Maoshu: "Why, Fellow Daoist Fu, do you regret it?"
Fu Shiyu: "You can search the Lingfu, but I have a condition."
"What conditions?"
"After searching me, Brother Wang should let us search him too."
Wang Maoshu sneered in his heart. When he was young, he had dabbled in some unorthodox magic out of curiosity. He happened to know a method that could search the opponent's soul palace and quietly inject the devilish energy into the opponent's soul palace, making the person show signs of devilish energy entering the body.
He had just secretly collected some remaining demonic energy when he was investigating the scene, just to put it to use now.
Of course it is difficult for people with similar cultivation to do so, but it is too easy for him, a high-level Nascent Soul cultivator, to do something to a low-level Foundation Establishment cultivator.
He had long disliked this man. A poor cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage always looked down on others. He didn't know what he was so proud of. And as for that little female cultivator, he originally wouldn't mind keeping her for a few more days, but she actually dared to disobey him, so don't blame him for being rude.
After searching out the "demonic energy" from this casual cultivator who has established his foundation, there is naturally no need to search myself anymore.
"Okay, I have a clear conscience and am naturally not afraid of the search." Wang Maoshu said readily.
Fu Shiyu: "Please."
"Wait!" Su Xiaoyuan stretched out her arms to stop him behind her. "Aren't you suspicious of me? Then just search me. Fellow Daoist Fu is injured, he can't withstand the search..."
"It'll be okay," Fu Shiyu's voice was gentle, "I know my limits."
"But……"
Wang Maoshu: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Su. After we finish searching Fellow Daoist Fu, it will be your turn. You are all suspects."
After saying that, he sat down cross-legged, immediately made a hand gesture, and sent a stream of spiritual consciousness into Fu Shiyu's brows, finding his spiritual palace. Now, as long as he made a slight movement, demonic energy would surge out of his seven orifices.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard other people's exclamations.
"Demonic energy, it's demonic energy!"
It’s that abscess named Ge.
Wang Maoshu was very proud, thanks to his wide knowledge and experience, he really had many skills.
But Ling Sangrou said in surprise: "So it turns out that Fellow Daoist Wang is the one possessed by the demon!"
Wang Maoshu was shocked. What was this woman talking about? Was she crazy?
"The demonic energy can no longer be suppressed. He's about to change... Everyone, be careful!"
What? He was clearly searching the spiritual palace of the casual foundation-building cultivator. This little bit of demonic energy wouldn't be enough to turn that casual cultivator into a demon, right?
He became increasingly confused and could only withdraw his consciousness: "You are talking about..."
His words got stuck in his throat because he didn't hear the familiar voice, but a few vague roars, the cries of low-level monsters.
He looked at his hands and found that his fingers had become as thin and long as spider legs, covered with an ugly layer of black crust.
He covered his head and screamed in horror, then a flash of sword appeared before his eyes, and his vision became very strange, and the people and objects around him seemed to fly sideways.
Then he realized that it wasn't the objects that were flying, it was his head that was falling off.
Fu Shiyu shook the devil blood off his sword and said to the stunned girl, "Are you scared?"
Su Xiaoyuan was still in a daze and nodded in a daze.
Just now, Wang Maoshu sat cross-legged in meditation, releasing his spiritual sense to search Fu Shiyu's spiritual palace, but for some reason, while searching, black smoke suddenly began to emerge from his seven orifices, and soon he began to transform.
Just as he finished transforming his head and hands, Fu Shiyu chopped off his head with a sword.
The whole process took less than a minute, and it happened so fast that it was over before she even realized it.
Fu Shiyu waved to her: "It's okay, come here."
He cast a purification spell on the sword, sheathed it, and glanced at everyone indifferently: "Is there anyone else who wants to search her soul palace?"
