The crowd was skeptical. What they didn't believe was that the Venerable One before them was really an ordinary woman, a vengeful ghost who died unjustly, a hundred years ago.
Ji Xiaoxiao took out an object and threw it at the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dao Palace.
"This was given to me by Master Jingyun before he died."
The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dao Palace reached out and grabbed the jade pendant in his palm. He slowly lowered his hand, stroking the pendant with his fingers, repeatedly confirming that it was indeed made by Min Tian and belonged to his junior disciple, Jing Yun.
"Is it really true?"
Kaitian nodded solemnly, "Not only that, there is also a video inside, which should have been recorded by Jingyun in an emergency before she died."
Kaitian used a secret method to break the seal on the jade pendant. The jade pendant floated into the sky, shining brightly and spreading outwards. It then gradually converged into a beam of light as wide as a person. Within the beam of light appeared a person, who was none other than the Taoist Master Jingyun, who had been dead for a hundred years.
In the video, Master Jingyun was pale, slumped on the ground, his hair disheveled, looking extremely disheveled. Anyone with eyes could see that this was a sign of his spiritual energy being exhausted.
"I am a disciple of Elder Mintian of the Li Tian Dao Palace, sent by my master to investigate the Nie family in XX County. On the surface, the Nie family is a renowned and benevolent family, but in reality, they specialize in murder and arson. They have joined forces with Hentian to build an underground palace beneath the Nie family, where they massacred tens of thousands of people and then sealed them within walls. Hentian then set up an array to convert soul power for his own use. I do not know if I can escape death this time, so I entrust this item to Benefactor Louyu to return to the Li Tian Dao Palace, hoping that the seniors in the palace will learn the truth and cleanse the sect."
The screen flickered, and Louyu and Hanba appeared in their soul forms.
"Now you should believe me, right?" Ji Xiaoxiao said smugly.
Rong Tian watched Ji Xiaoxiao's every move with great interest, his head held high. She had delicate features and was very charming. Especially when she successfully schemed against others, the little bit of playfulness mixed with her smugness was irresistibly attractive to him.
Rong Tian, who has always been bold and decisive, pulled Ji Xiaoxiao down with him.
“You…” Now it was Ji Xiaoxiao’s turn to be speechless.
"What are you doing?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked reproachfully.
Rong Tian smiled but remained silent.
Ji Xiaoxiao bit her lip and transmitted her voice to the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts, "Ten Thousand Ghosts."
"Understood, Your Majesty." The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts spoke in a resounding voice, a cold wind blew, and the sky suddenly darkened. A huge stone gate appeared before everyone's eyes. The stone gate opened, and a cold black aura rushed out. Those whose cultivation was not high enough were instantly frozen into ice pops.
The gates of the underworld opened, and the Black and White Impermanence floated over.
"My lord, what is the purpose of summoning us here?" asked Bai Wuchang.
The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts kicked Nie Zhen next to the Black and White Impermanence, saying, "He is Nie Zhen."
"Nie Zhen, who killed 123,614 people?" Black Impermanence asked.
The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts didn't know the exact number of people Nie Zhen had killed, but anyone capable of such heinous acts must have been the same person.
"Alright, thank you for your help this time, sir. This little devil is very cunning. Seventh Brother and I have tried to capture him several times, but he always manages to escape beforehand and hides. He's very annoying." Black Impermanence sincerely thanked the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
"It's nothing."
Black and White Impermanence used iron chains to bind Nie Zhen and dragged him into the underworld.
"Your Excellency, Demon Lord, we had an agreement: I will tell you the whole truth, and you will help me reincarnate!" Nie Zhen shouted anxiously.
Ji Xiaoxiao said, "Didn't I help you reincarnate? Just wait patiently. There aren't many people in the animal realm, so it will be your turn soon."
"The animal realm?" Nie Zhen realized he had been deceived. "I don't want to be reborn as an animal."
The gates of the underworld closed, and in the blink of an eye, the wind and clouds dissipated.
"Hentian, it's your turn." Ji Xiaoxiao was on guard against Hentian. Hentian laughed wildly, broke the barrier set up by Qinghe and the others, and slowly walked out of the deep pit.
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place," said Hentian.
Man proposes, God disposes. Millions of lives were lost for no reason. Hentian never thought he could hide it forever. He had foreseen what was happening today.
Hentian raised his head, his gaze falling on Ji Xiaoxiao and Rong Tian.
"You are very strong, I am no match for you."
"Then obediently surrender." Ji Xiaoxiao straightened her back.
"Heh." Hentian scoffed, "Although I am no match for you, if I want to leave, no one can stop me."
"Then you can try it," Ji Xiaoxiao said coldly.
Hentian's choice was correct and wise. She and Rongtian were both Venerables, and with the two of them joining forces, Hentian had no chance of winning. He chose to back down, knowing that as long as he survived, he could always make a comeback and avenge himself in the future.
"Stop him." The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts sensed the change in the spiritual energy around Hentian; he was trying to escape.

Qinghe spoke with conviction and confidence.
"Thank you for your trouble, Sister Wan Gui." Qinghe bowed. In front of him was a gloomy woman with white hair and black clothes. Her face was covered with a veil, her eyes were sharp, and a faint but chilling murderous aura emanated from her. It was clear at a glance that she was not someone to be trifled with.
The woman's title was Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Lord, one of the strongest figures in the demonic path. Before she submitted to Dragon Travel Manor, Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Lord was a figure who gave both the righteous and demonic paths a headache.
"It's alright." The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts raised her hand lightly, and with a thud, something fell at her feet. Upon closer inspection, it was a demon bound into a mummy shape by the Immortal Binding Rope.
Those are ghosts; the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Ghosts is renowned throughout the world for his ability to control ghosts.
Hentian glanced at it indifferently, but his heart instantly jumped into his throat.
"How dare you, a mere nobody, come to the Heavenly Dao Palace to cause trouble! You're courting death!" Hentian spoke righteously, then raised his hand. It seemed like a casual gesture, but in reality, it was a forbidden exorcism spell that would kill anyone. Even the barrier set up by Qinghe and the other three couldn't stop it.
