Chapter 354 Yun Qingqing comes to the door!
"Disciple obeys!"
Cang Huai took a step forward and turned to the elders of the Seven Stars Hall with a look of grief and anger:
"My dear seniors, I am Cang Huai from the Tianxuan Sect. I was in Pingzhou with my master Qingxuanzi when I was attacked by your disciple Yun Qingqing!"
"She didn't come alone. With her was a mountain ghost who was worshipped by the people and had become a local god. There was also a mysterious person who never showed his face. He was obviously a powerful person who supported Yun Qingqing and it was inconvenient to show his true appearance!"
Cang Huai organized his words very skillfully and did not reveal anything about the Six Paths Heavenly Demon Formation.
"Master was attacked and unable to take care of himself, and even risked serious injuries to protect me from the clutches of the devil. This disciple was ordered to return to Tianxuan Sect to report this matter! I also ask all the elders to immediately capture Yun Qingqing and bring her back to the sect. Make her reveal the whereabouts of the monk and punish her severely!"
After hearing Cang Huai's words, the elders' expressions gradually became solemn and they exchanged glances with each other.
The Great Elder asked in a deep voice:
"Which sect is Yun Qingqing from?"
The other elders looked at each other and shook their heads:
"There is no disciple named Yun Qingqing in my Tianji Hall."
"There is no disciple named Yun in our Tianquan Hall."
"Kaiyang Hall has never had such a disciple."
"We in Yuheng Hall also..."
After several elders asked around, they seemed to have reached a unanimous conclusion, and finally someone turned his attention to an empty seat nearby.
"By the way, where is the Second Elder?"
"None of our six halls have a disciple named Yun Qingqing, so she must be a disciple of the Second Elder, right?"
A disciple suddenly stepped out and said:
"My dear uncles, Master has been in seclusion recently and therefore cannot be present. However, I can testify that our Tianxuan Hall has never accepted a disciple named Yun Qingqing."
After several elders confirmed it, their expressions became a little subtle. The Great Elder frowned slightly and looked at Cang Huai and said:
"This matter is full of strangeness. How did you, a young man, know that the other party was from our Seven Star Hall? Did you believe that person's self-introduction to deliberately stir up trouble?"
Cang Huai immediately said:
"Without solid evidence, how dare I make such wild guesses! Seniors, may I ask, among all the esoteric sects in the world, besides your own Seven Stars Hall, which other sects teach the Qimen Dunjia?"
"What a joke!" The Great Elder sneered, "The Qimen Dunjia has been unique to our Seven Stars Palace since ancient times. How could other sects possibly understand this!"
Cang Huai said loudly:
"That's right! And Yun Qingqing is an expert in Qimen Dunjia!"
"What!" Several elders exclaimed in surprise.
The disciples of the Seven Stars Hall also began to whisper to each other.
"Are you serious?" The Great Elder's expression grew serious.
"It's absolutely true. Not only can I testify to this, but my junior brother Cang Rong has also confirmed this with her in person!" Cang Huai said as he pulled someone behind him.
It was Cang Rong, a disciple of Tianxuan Sect who was stationed in Liang State as the national teacher.
Imperial Master Cang Rong stepped forward and saluted, saying:
"Elders, what Senior Brother Cang Huai said is absolutely true. She once admitted to your face that she was a disciple of the Seven Stars Palace."
When the Imperial Master said that Yun Qingqing was from the Seven Stars Palace, she did not deny it, which naturally meant that she agreed to it in the eyes of the Imperial Master.
When he returned to the sect this time, he informed the sect elders of the news.
Qing Xuanzi was a rare genius, and his reputation in the Tianxuan Sect was naturally very high. His accident was a major event that shook the entire sect, which led to the sect leader leading the crowd to the Seven Stars Hall to seek an explanation.
The elders of the Seven Stars Hall were increasingly confused, but they all knew that this matter was of great importance.
The third elder suddenly said:
"But even in my Seven Stars Hall, only the elders and the hall master's direct disciples are qualified to learn Qimen Dunjia. There are only a few direct disciples. If there really is someone named Yun Qingqing, it's impossible that we elders have never heard of her!"
Tianxuan Sect Master Qingpingzi's face looked unhappy:
"I've heard that Yun Qingqing is extremely talented. Could it be that you, the Seven Stars Palace, are reluctant to part with such a talented disciple and are therefore shielding her from such evil deeds?"
"What the hell are you talking about!" The Fourth Elder of the Seven Stars Hall was a hot-tempered man and immediately shouted angrily, "Are you accusing me of lying?"
Qing Pingzi sneered:
"If you have no guilty conscience, do you dare to set up a formation and question your conscience?"
"Ask then, but if it turns out it's not true, how are you going to apologize to the Tianxuan Sect?"
"Enough!" The Great Elder shouted and stopped the two people who were about to quarrel.
He looked at Cang Huai and Cang Rong seriously and said in a deep voice:
"It was you two who said Yun Qingqing was a disciple of my Seven Stars Hall. If that's the case, do you dare to enter the Heart-Searching Formation and give it a try?"
The Imperial Master did not hesitate and nodded immediately:
"This junior has a clear conscience and is willing to enter the Inquiry Formation!"
Cang Huai was a little hesitant.
His expression did not escape the eyes of the Great Elder. His eyes turned cold and he was about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted by a hurried voice.
"Report—someone broke into the mountain gate!"
Everyone was startled and turned to look towards the hall.
A disciple came crawling in with a bruised face and nose, and knelt in front of the hall and said urgently:
"Elders, a woman has broken into the formation outside the mountain gate and injured many of the disciples guarding it. She is demanding that we at the Seven Stars Hall hand over her husband!"
The elders of the Seven Stars Hall looked at each other again.
The elder's brows were twisted into knots:
"What a mess! Who is her husband? Why is she asking for him from the Seven Stars Palace?"
"Replying to the Great Elder, she said that her husband is the Regent of Liang State, Xiao Changheng!"
The elders: ???
"Prince Regent of Liang?"
"What does this have to do with anything? Why would we capture a prince?"
"That's sheer nonsense!"
Several elders were finding this matter ridiculous, but Cang Huai, Cang Rong and others from Tianxuan Sect had strange expressions on their faces.
Qing Pingzi also remembered what his two nephews had said, and could not help but ask the disciple who reported the news loudly:
"Wait, you said, the person the woman outside the mountain gate is looking for is really... the Regent of Liang?"
The disciple nodded and said:
"That's exactly what she said!"
The Great Elder noticed that the Taoist priests looked unhappy, and immediately stopped the others from talking and asked:
"Does Sect Master have anything to say?"
Qingpingzi stroked his beard and said meaningfully:
"According to these two disciples of our sect, Yun Qingqing is none other than Xiao Changheng's wife, the Princess Regent of Liang!"
Everyone in the hall buzzed and started talking again.
Both the elders of the Seven Stars Hall and the group of people from the Tianxuan Sect who came to call for an explanation were stunned.
The most confused one was the national teacher Cang Rong.
What's going on?
Is Yun Qingqing a member of the Seven Stars Palace?
If not, where did she learn the Qimen Dunjia technique? Why didn't she deny it last time?
If that was the case, why did she suddenly come here to ask for people and even fight with the disciples of the Seven Stars Hall!
Hmm? Wait...something happened to the Regent?
Various thoughts flashed through the Imperial Master's mind until he realized that something had happened to the Regent, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
If something really happened to him, that would be great news. It would be better to wait and see what happens.
"Alright, everyone, be quiet!" The Great Elder felt a headache coming on. He looked at the disciple who reported the news and asked, "Did that woman give her name? Is her name Yun Qingqing?"
"This... that woman is very arrogant. She started fighting before we could even say a few words!" The disciple who reported the news lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and added.
"She still... she keeps saying that her husband was abducted and is now in the Seven Stars Palace. If we don't return him, don't blame her... don't blame her for tearing down the Seven Stars Palace to find him!"
As expected, as soon as these words were spoken, all the elders became angry!
