He's like a hypocritical, sanctimonious man who uses his position to peep into people's lives—a disgusting rat.
While he was engrossed in watching, Yun Lian smashed his roof beam with a punch and took all the memory stones.
His pupils trembled the moment he saw Yun Lian.
"Yun Lian?! What are you doing here?"
A sarcastic smile flickered across Yun Lian's lips.
"What? You're surprised I'm still alive?"
Yun Lian's whip was wreathed in flames, with flashes of lightning appearing from time to time.
"You old beast, I never imagined that someone your age would do something so disgusting. Do your disciples know that their revered master is more sinister than a rat in a sewer?"
The Moon Shadow Sect Master's eyes were bloodshot.
"You unfilial daughter, is this how you talk to your father?"
"Ha, a scoundrel like you, you dare to call yourself my father?"
Yun Lian threw a fireball outside, and the pitch-black Moon Shadow Sect was instantly illuminated as if it were daytime.
The elders sensed the danger and rushed to the sect hall.
The disciples emerged from their caves, and those with water-elemental roots tried to extinguish the fire, only to find that the fireballs grew larger with each attempt.
In just a few minutes, the main hall was reduced to ruins.
Yun Lian and the sect leader of the Moon Shadow Sect were locked in a fierce battle, their cultivation levels similar. However, the elders were like disgusting bedbugs, seizing every opportunity to attack her.
It doesn't hurt or itch, but it's very annoying.
Yun Lian ignored almost all the attacks except from the Moon Shadow Sect Master, pointing at the fiery red whip and attacking him with all her might with each strike, accompanied by the sound of wind breaking.
Yun Lian felt sorry for the original owner of this body.
She never hated her father until her death, and always blamed Tang Ling'er for the destruction of the spiritual vein.
Yun Lian spoke loudly to him.
"Did you really not know I was innocent back then? How old was I? My spiritual veins were destroyed, and I was expelled from the sect. Any father with a shred of conscience would not treat his daughter like that!"
The Moon Shadow Sect Master's eyes darted away as he received a sharp lash across the face.
The smell of burning flesh filled the air instantly.
Yun Lian sneered.
Am I really your biological daughter?
Upon hearing Yun Lian's words, not only the Moon Shadow Sect Master, but even the elders who had been attacking her from the shadows were shocked and froze in their tracks.
Did she discover something?
"How could she not be my daughter? I expelled you from the sect back then only to appease the others, because framing a fellow disciple is an unforgivable crime."
"Frame a fellow disciple is a grave crime... Hahaha... Don't you know best whether I'm guilty or not?"
"Sect Leader Yun, you know better than anyone who benefited from that play back then. What did I gain by deliberately framing her?"
Was it for her insignificant arm, or for leaving the place where I was born and raised?
If my mother were still alive, would she be like you, unable to distinguish right from wrong, or differentiate between family and friends?
Yun Lian's blows grew heavier with each strike.
The elders exchanged glances and silently withdrew from the battle.
If that woman knew that her daughter had been so wronged in the Moon Shadow Sect, which she had founded, they probably wouldn't be able to pay for it even with ten lives.
System 003 noticed the scarlet color in the host's eyes and quickly issued a warning.
"Host, he will die if you keep hitting him."
Yun Lian delivered a heavy punch to the spot where his nascent soul was located, and Yun Yi, the sect leader of the Moon Shadow Sect, was instantly horrified.
When did she become this powerful?
Even if the spiritual veins are repaired, it's impossible that even he is powerless to resist.
But seeing the same ruthlessness in her eyes as her mother, Yunyi was terrified and begged for mercy repeatedly.
"Lianlian, I was wrong. Don't treat me like this. I swear I will treat you even better in the future. I will make it up to you."
Seeing that Yun Lian remained unmoved, he continued to raise the stakes.
“Lianlian, haven’t you always wanted to be the young sect leader of the Moon Shadow Sect? Father agrees. As long as you are willing to come back to the Moon Shadow Sect, even if you want to be the sect leader, Father will let you be one.”
Yun Lian paused, deliberately scanning the area.
Seeing a crowd gathered around them, Tang Ling'er and Shang Lu also appeared, their clothes disheveled.
"I can give you a chance, as long as you tell me the truth about how I was expelled from the sect back then, maybe I can consider it."
Yun Yi hesitated for only a second before seeing Tang Ling'er leaning against Shang Lu and immediately spoke up.
"Back then, Tang Ling'er tried to steal a rare divine beast egg, but couldn't escape in time and was punished by the divine beast. And you..."
Yun Lian stared at him with a half-smile, as if she would shatter his nascent soul if he didn't finish speaking.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ling'er's face turned deathly pale, and her doe-like eyes were now brimming with tears.
"Master, no..."
Yunyi cruelly turned his head away, refusing to look at her tears.
He loved himself more than Tang Ling'er.
Moreover, regardless of anything else, Yun Lian and he were related by blood. With absolute strength, he knew very well who could protect the Moon Shadow Sect.
"Your soul was damaged while saving Tang Ling'er, so your cultivation will definitely be very slow in the future. Ling'er not only has a top-grade water spiritual root, but also a special physique. I can only go along with what Ling'er says."
"Putting all the blame for what happened on you will only... destroy your spiritual veins, but I've spared your life, haven't I?"
"Hahaha... Isn't that ridiculous? In my own father's eyes, am I just an object to be sold? Yunyi, how can someone like you be worthy of being a father!?"
The disciples nearby were stunned, as if struck by lightning.
They never imagined that their master, whom they considered upright and highly skilled, would distort the truth for this reason.
The inner disciples' gazes towards Tang Ling'er gradually became more complex.
In their hearts, Tang Ling'er has always been a pure, innocent, lively, and kind person.
Tang Ling'er cried out.
"No, Master, Ling'er was just a child back then. How could I convince everyone? My sister's tragic end was not my fault."
Yun Yi stared intently at Tang Ling'er like a cold, venomous snake.
"Shut up! If it weren't for your meddling, would my daughter and I have been separated for so many years before we could recognize each other?"
Seeing the two start fighting, Yun Lian wasn't in a hurry to destroy Yun Yi.
She loves watching dogs fight each other, their mouths full of fur.
Tang Ling'er noticed that Shang Lu had created some distance between her and her. The junior brothers and sisters who had always looked at her with admiration were now looking at her with eyes that seemed to rip her skin and bones.
Filled with rage, Tang Ling'er rushed into the center of the crowd without a care in the world.
"Master, isn't it because you were afraid that Senior Sister's cultivation would become more and more advanced and that she would replace you as the sect leader that you went along with it?"
Why do you act like you're completely innocent after you've said that?
"Tang Ling'er, shut up! You don't want all your classmates to see those disgusting things I showed you before, do you?"
Tang Ling'er gritted her teeth so hard they almost broke, glaring fiercely at Yun Yi.
“Master, I truly regret joining the Moon Shadow Sect and becoming your disciple.”
When Yunyi heard her regret, his eyes became even more terrifying.
"Tang Ling'er, if I hadn't promoted you all the way, do you think you would have reached your current cultivation level?"
Seeing that the female lead was about to cry, Yun Lian kicked Yun Yi hard in the chin.
"Shameless old man, do you really think I wouldn't dare to produce your disgraced and worthless documents?"
