Rong Zhuo's words surprised everyone.
This included Sheng Ning himself.
Upon hearing the other party's attempt to shift the blame, she did not immediately refute them. Instead, she covered Ye Si's mouth and raised her eyebrows to look at Rong Zhuo.
She wanted to hear what kind of praise the other person wanted to give her.
Elder Qian was still angry.
Upon hearing Rong Zhuo's words, he immediately turned around and walked to the former's side, "Sect Master, what did you mean by what you just said?"
"Sheng Ning...has she been lying all along?"
Rong Zhuo is gambling.
I bet that Sheng Ning, with only a Nascent Soul stage cultivation, wouldn't dare to fight me head-on.
She didn't speak in response to his probing, and Rong Zhuo, who thought he had made the right bet, breathed a slight sigh of relief.
At this moment, Elder Qian was stirring things up beside him, and Rong Zhuo frowned, looking at Sheng Ning with an indignant expression.
"Just now in the tea room, Young Friend Sheng asked me for the treasure of the Taixu Sect. She even said that if I was willing to give up the treasure, she would have Qinglong form a contract with me."
"Chiang Rai, as you know, my cultivation has stagnated. Even though I know that advancement is not something that can be achieved overnight, the Azure Dragon is a divine beast, and I..."
“I have let down all the disciples of the Taixu Sect. I, Rong Zhuo, am unworthy to be the sect leader of the Taixu Sect.”
Elder Qian, as an elder of the Taixu Sect, had a fairly close relationship with Rong Zhuo.
He also knew that everything Rong Zhuo said about cultivation was true.
For a thousand years, he was on the verge of reaching the upper realm, but his cultivation level remained stagnant.
Anyone in that situation would be anxious.
After hearing Rong Zhuo's words, Elder Qian took a deep breath. "No wonder!"
"No wonder you showed such out-of-control emotions just now, Sect Master."
"Sheng Ning, you're despicable!"
This isn't the first time Sheng Ning has been scapegoated.
If my third senior brother, Lu Jingshen, were here right now...
She insisted that Lu Jingshen examine her spine.
We can't let her, at such a young age, develop a spinal deformity because of taking the blame, can we?
Faced with Elder Qian's accusations, Sheng Ning finally released her hand from covering Ye Si's mouth.
"That's it? I thought you were going to say something earth-shattering."
"But this is truly a pleasant surprise. I never expected the Taixu Sect to have such a treasure. Let me take a look."
Sheng Ning's overly matter-of-fact tone made Elder Qian's eyes widen instantly.
His eyes were filled with disbelief, and after a long while, he stammered, "Sheng Ning, you...you're utterly unreasonable!!!"
I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as Sheng Ning.
She immediately asked for the most treasured artifact of the Taixu Sect. Who does she think she is, to even look at the sect's most treasured artifact?
After witnessing this farce unfold while nestled in Sheng Ning's palm, Ye Si's chaotic consciousness finally cleared.
He turned around and his gaze landed on Rong Zhuo. "It really is you, Rong Zhuo. After all these years, how come you're still so... weak?"
"I remember that you had already entered the Mahayana realm during the ancient war ten thousand years ago. How come you haven't advanced yet after all these years?"
"Tch! You're different from me in this respect. I've already died once, while you haven't even broken through to the next level. Tsk tsk tsk, what a weakling."
The saying "to injure the enemy a thousand, you lose eight hundred of your own" probably describes Ye Si's situation perfectly.
He's the first person to be able to describe his near-death experience in such a fresh and unconventional way.
When Rong Zhuo heard Ye Si speak, his face, which was covered by his beautiful beard, immediately turned pale.
He pursed his lips, suppressing his inner fear, and pretended not to hear the other person's voice, his gaze remaining fixed on Sheng Ning.
Ye Si wasn't annoyed that he ignored her.
Instead, it flew out of Sheng Ning's palm and headed towards his location.
"Hey, I'm talking to you. Back then, you willingly betrayed the human cultivators and sold me crucial human intelligence. What? Have you forgotten because you've got senile dementia?"
"If you've forgotten, let me remind you. What information did you give me back then? I remember I gave you quite a few benefits..."
The more Ye Si continued speaking, the uglier Rong Zhuo's expression became.
In the end, his body was trembling slightly.
Elder Qian was alarmed when he saw that something was wrong with Ye Si and quickly raised his hand to drive him away.
"Go away, go away! Who do you think you are to impersonate the Evil Emperor Ye Si?"
"Do you know that the Evil Emperor Ye Si has already successfully transcended his tribulation and ascended to become an immortal? How dare you make such a rash claim here?"
Nightclub, its sore spot touched: ...
He let out a cold snort.
Ye Si dodged his flailing arms, and the fireball landed on his head.
The next instant, the entire Taixu Sect heard Elder Qian's scream.
"My hair! My hair!!!"
The eerie blue flames quickly burned away all his hair, leaving not a single hair root behind.
By the time Elder Qian tried to put out the fire, it was too late.
The air was filled with the smell of burning, and Elder Qian, his head covered in soot, stared blankly ahead.
The instigator, Ye Si, showed absolutely no remorse.
On the contrary, upon seeing Elder Qian's bald head, he immediately burst into laughter without any restraint.
I'm going to kill you!
The sound of gritted teeth echoed in my ears.
Ye Si's unrestrained laughter paused for a moment.
The next moment, he burst into laughter again.
At the same time, he, who was originally just a fireball, became different.
