The scene was deathly silent.
Even though the Jade Spirit Secret Realm was sealed off, and even though the strength and titles of these three people were not worthy of their titles, they were still genuine Supreme Elders.
They represent the people with the highest power and seniority in the Jade Spirit Palace at this stage, but now they are writhing on the ground, their legs broken and tongues cut off, wailing in agony.
The Holy Maiden Qinglan's style of doing things is too domineering.
Just as the three old women's men stood there dumbfounded, Qinglan's voice rang out again.
"A mere maid dares to proclaim herself a Supreme Being? She is utterly presumptuous. Your master knew your character but spared your lives out of consideration for past relationships. Yet, instead of repenting, you have become accomplices to evil and brought disaster to the sect. You shall be executed!"
As the sound faded, the sword's edge flashed once more.
Puff puff puff!
The three old women's dantian was shattered and their limbs were severed at the root. Then, with a single wave of their hands, they were defeated.
The three, whose cultivation had been crippled and whose limbs had been severed, crashed to the ground with a thud.
Immediately, a disciple from the sect stepped forward, grabbed the three old women, took out a huge iron hook, pierced their chests, and hung them on the huge flagpole.
Master said that if someone committed the same offense again, their legs would be broken, their tongue cut off, and they would be hung upside down on a flagpole and scream until they died. Qinghe added a new punishment to this one.
He stripped the victim of his cultivation, severed his limbs, and made him die in agony, feeling the life force slowly draining from his body.
She wanted to use this method to tell everyone that Jade Spirit Palace had not changed, and that reverence for the sect should never be extinguished.
This way, she tells everyone that with her around, Jade Spirit Palace is not a place where villains can do whatever they want.
"You should not exist."
Qinghe looked at the three old women's subordinates and said calmly.
The most direct manifestation of the decline of a sect is the increase in those who rely on their master's power and bully others, which is exactly what these people, who have no talent whatsoever and only know how to flatter, love to do.
It means doing everything possible to suppress and persecute truly talented people.
These are all insignificant figures, but they are the true gravediggers of a vast sect.
It is not uncommon for petty people to commit great evils, because those who are truly talented often die at their hands.
Such insignificant people have no loyalty whatsoever. As long as there is profit or a crisis, they will turn around and switch allegiance, then reveal all the secrets they know.
When a sect or power is destroyed, there are always these collaborators involved. And when these people who have changed allegiance come to power, they will persecute their former fellow disciples and even their benefactors in a frenzied manner.
These words came from the mouth of Ye Boqi.
It is precisely because they know the harm and extent of evil committed by these insignificant people that, on the road to Daqi's rise, there has never been that melodramatic scenario where the insignificant people are let off the hook and then suffer the consequences.
There was no idiotic general who thought killing a nobody would dirty his hands.
Because Crown Prince Daqi, Ye Boqi, would never allow such a thing to happen.
As one of the closest people to Xiao Boqi, this style of doing things has long been ingrained in Qinghe's bones.
Qinghe would absolutely not let these scoundrels who followed the three fake Supreme Elders and acted as their protectors live.
"If it shouldn't exist, then let it disappear."
The moment the words fell, countless sword beams suddenly rose up, enveloping those who stood frozen in place, their eyes filled with terror.
The sword light vanished, and none of these people survived.
Then Qinghe looked at the void not far away and smiled faintly.
“The lackeys sent to test us are all dead; it’s time for you to come out.”
The moment the words fell, Yu Lingying's figure slowly appeared.
"Senior sister is as domineering as ever."
As he spoke, he landed not far from Qinghe, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and spoke again.
“But times have changed. I, as the sect leader, cannot stand idly by and watch someone kill a sect’s supreme elder without cause.”
"You can still kill yourself now, and I will spare their lives."
As Yu Lingying spoke, she pointed menacingly at Mingzhi and the others beside her.
Looking at Yu Lingying's expression, Qinghe shook her head helplessly.
"I have to admit that you are very cunning. When you were by my side, I didn't notice anything at all. I didn't notice that you had murderous intentions towards me, let alone that you were colluding with external evil forces to overthrow the sect."
“Back then, I was trapped by the alien formation in that mineral vein space, but it was not easy to kill me. You were certain that I would never abandon you, and it was because of your sudden attack that I perished.”
As she spoke, Qinghe took a step forward.
"Your original intention was to kill me and then possess my body, but you didn't expect me to self-destruct so resolutely, and you didn't expect that a wisp of my soul would be reborn after wandering in the spatial rift for countless years."
"You probably never expected that I would appear in front of you again, and what puzzles you most is that I should have told you these things the moment I returned."
At this point, a faint smile appeared on Qinghe's face. If the people of Daqi were here, they would definitely notice.
Qinghe's smile was exactly the same as that of the Emperor and Empress of Daqi.
“You understand me, so you were able to easily lure me into the alien illusion array, but you forgot that I understand you just as well. No matter how deep your cunning is, your way of thinking will not change.”
“If I don’t reveal it, you’ll keep suspecting that I have some terrifying trump card, but actually, I didn’t have any trump card when I came back.”
"What I want is your doubt and waiting, because I need this time to get to the bottom of things. Now I can tell you directly that I have the bottom line."
"And it was obtained with your help, but I won't thank you."
"Because His Highness said that the dead do not deserve to be thanked."
Qinghe's voice wasn't loud, but every word struck Mingzhi and the others like a heavy drumbeat.
They finally learned what had happened back then, and finally confirmed their suspicions about Yu Lingying.
But to their surprise, Yu Lingying had secretly colluded with the alien race.
"Very well, but your trump card is useless against me."
Yu Lingying's face was extremely cold, and the killing intent in her eyes flashed wildly.
“I’ve said it before, things are different now. You are no longer the Qinglan of the past, and I am no longer the Yu Lingying of the past.”
"If I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time."
The moment the words fell, the entire Jade Spirit Palace trembled violently, and a huge light shield instantly enveloped Qinghe and the others.
The most powerful killing formation in the sect protection formation.
Looking at Qinghe who was enveloped by the formation as she entered, Yu Lingying's face showed a cold smile.
"You shouldn't have come back. Finding a quiet place to eke out a living is the best course of action. A thousand years have passed, and your era and glory are long gone."
"Today, you will no longer have the good fortune to escape."
Looking at Yu Lingying outside the array's light barrier, Qinghe still had a faint smile on her face.
"After all these years, you haven't improved at all. Even if you wanted to kill me, you wouldn't dare to get close."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to meet the massive array of light.
"Is this your trump card for killing me again?"
"Unfortunately, it's not enough."
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed, and the huge array light shield, along with the killing array that was forming, shattered instantly.
