Chapter 360 Chu Jingyan
There has always been a saying in Xuanmen.
Once you enter the heart-examination array, even gods and ghosts dare not speak nonsense.
Being struck by five thunderbolts is no joke. No matter how high your cultivation level is, you cannot withstand it. At the very least, you will die and your soul will be damaged. Even if you are lucky enough to be reincarnated, you will only be a fool.
In severe cases, the soul will be destroyed and there will be no chance of reincarnation.
The Conscience Formation is like this, not to mention the Conscience Bureau in the Qi Men Dun Jia.
Cang Huai is afraid of death.
I am afraid of going to hell after death, afraid that I won’t even have the chance to go to hell after death, and even more afraid that I will become a fool in my next life.
Now that there was no hope of escape, he confessed his entire story without much hesitation.
"...Master and I spent several years setting up the Six Paths Heavenly Demon Formation in Pingzhou. Once this formation is activated, the vitality and spiritual essence of countless living beings within the formation will be completely absorbed as sacrifices. Ultimately, a peerless divine weapon will be refined. Whoever obtains this divine weapon will be invincible."
"How could such a thing happen!" Qingpingzi was horrified. "He wants to sacrifice the lives of an entire state to refine his weapon? How could he do such a cruel thing!"
"A peerless divine weapon?" Yun Qingqing narrowed her eyes. "Qing Xuanzi said so? Did he also tell me what that divine weapon was?"
Cang Huai shook his head dejectedly:
"Master didn't say much. He himself was also under orders from others..."
"Are you under orders from the so-called Honghuang Palace?" Yun Qingqing asked in a cold voice, "What kind of organization is Honghuang Palace? Tell me clearly."
Cang Huai paused slightly, and there was a hint of longing and regret in his eyes.
"Honghuang Palace is a secret organization of the Lord God's followers... As long as we serve the Lord God faithfully, when he returns one day, we, the members of this palace, will be able to gain his favor and ascend to heaven!"
"What!"
"How could such a ridiculous thing happen!"
“…Ascension?”
"The spiritual energy in this world has long been exhausted. Ascension has long been impossible..."
"Hehehe..." Cang Huai laughed crazily, until tears came out of his eyes. "That's because you don't have the protection of the Lord God! But now I also..."
Yun Qingqing frowned, raised her hand, made a dazzling gesture, and threw it towards Cang Huai.
A golden light disappeared into Cang Huai's brows, and he immediately closed his eyes and lost consciousness.
Everyone in the Tianxuan Sect changed their expressions, and Qingpingzi said coldly:
"Yun Qingqing, what do you mean?"
Yun Qingqing looked at him seriously and said directly:
"Everyone here is from the Xuan Sect. What do you think, Sect Master, if we dig deeper into what this person said, what kind of impact will it have on the Xuan Sect?"
Qingpingzi's face was shocked.
He realized the deeper meaning behind Yun Qingqing's words, and was also shocked that she could perform the art of voice transmission so easily at such a young age.
Yun Qingqing saw that he had understood something and said seriously:
"Please keep this person under strict supervision, Sect Master. I will visit the Tianxuan Sect after I finish my work."
The corners of Qingpingzi's mouth twitched. He hesitated for a moment and said nothing more. He waved his hand and asked his disciples to carry Canghuai away.
Yun Qingqing looked coldly at another person, who was the national teacher Cang Huai who had been as quiet as a chicken since the Questioning Heaven Bureau was launched.
"Master Imperial Master, I only have one question for you," she said coldly, "Is the curse that Xiao Changheng was under originally related to you?"
Cang Huai shuddered, shook his head like a rattle and said urgently:
"This matter has absolutely nothing to do with me! I am only taking this opportunity to weaken his luck and uphold the orthodoxy. I don't know how to cast such sinister spells!"
Yun Qingqing knew that he couldn't lie in the inquiry, so she wasn't surprised. With the Imperial Master's skills, he certainly didn't have the ability to make Xiao Changheng blind and paralyzed for several years.
She glanced at the Imperial Master and sneered:
"Upholding orthodoxy? If you want to achieve this by suppressing the prince who has devoted his life to serving the country and the people, your so-called orthodoxy is too cheap!"
Yun Qingqing left the Imperial Master speechless, and then looked at Qing Pingzi:
"I see that your Tianxuan Sect is a Taoist sect, and that you cultivate virtue. I don't think you will tolerate your disciples misbehaving outside. I will not interfere with the teaching of this Imperial Master."
Qingpingzi's expression changed several times. He opened his mouth to speak, but swallowed it back in the end.
What did she mean by "I won't interfere and teach her a lesson"? As the leader of a sect, shouldn't he thank her?
This little girl is so arrogant, how can he not be angry!
But the Pingzhou incident, coupled with the Imperial Master's revelation just now about suppressing the Regent, clearly showed that the disciples of his own sect were not in the right.
If it were just this, he could still scold the little girl for her arrogance and teach her a lesson.
However, after the recent confrontation, he already understood that this little girl relied on a lot, and he didn't know what bigger cards she had.
If you act rashly, you may not gain any advantage, and if you fail, you will be laughed at by the people in the Xuanmen.
Qing Pingzi's mind was in a mess for a moment, and he finally gave up the idea of teaching the little girl a lesson. He glared at the Imperial Master fiercely:
"Return to the sect!"
The Imperial Master followed behind with his neck hunched, his back soaked with cold sweat.
He was so regretful at this moment. He had originally just gone back to inquire about the situation in Pingzhou, but he had no idea that Uncle Qingxuanzi and Canghuai and others had caused such a big trouble behind his back!
Now I have been dragged into this mess, and I am afraid I will be severely punished when I go back this time.
If he had known this, he would never have gotten involved with Uncle Master Qingxuanzi even if he was beaten to death!
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
After all the members of the Tianxuan Sect withdrew, Yun Qingqing could finally focus on dealing with the Seven Star Palace.
She turned to look at the Great Elder and asked in a cold voice:
"Now that you and I are both in this inquiry, I'll ask you again, where are you hiding my husband?"
The Great Elder and the others had watched everything that had just happened. They no longer looked down on the little girl as before and immediately said seriously:
"We have never seen the Regent of Liang, nor do we know where he is. Young lady, why are you so sure he's hidden in my Seven Star Palace? Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Yun Qingqing immediately shook her head:
"There's no misunderstanding. He was abducted by a man named Chu Jingyan in the Nanyu Honglu Temple. He was carrying the protective gear I gave him. I used the Qi Men Dun Jia Di Pan to inquire about his divination, and the result was that he was indeed in the Seven Stars Hall."
Several elders looked at each other, shock in their eyes again.
Even when these elders used the Qi Men Dun Jia to cast hexagrams, they usually only cast partial hexagrams, that is, they would judge the situation and select a part of the formation plate to use for deduction.
It is outrageous that this little girl knows Qimen Dunjia and claims that she figured it out on her own.
Now she says she can tell fortunes based on the entire territory!
But everyone is in a game of self-examination, which is a game of honesty, and no one can lie.
Several elders were shocked and their expressions turned serious.
"Wait a minute..." The Third Elder suddenly spoke thoughtfully, "Little girl, you just said that the person who abducted the Regent was called... Chu Jingyan?"
Yun Qingqing's eyes flickered and she nodded.
"Yes, it's him. Elder, do you have any clues?"
The Third Elder stroked his chin, frowned and thought:
"Come to think of it, I do remember that one of our outer disciples was accepted into the Second Elder's fold over a year ago. His name is Chu Jingyan."
"Is there really such a disciple?" The Great Elder's expression became serious. "Where is he? Send someone to find him and question him immediately!"
