The disciples of Xuanyin Sect were stunned. Just one inner sect disciple died, so was it necessary to make such a big fuss?
But this is someone else's territory after all, so when in Rome, do as the Romans do. They can't beat the Foundation Establishment anyway, so just ask.
So, the disciples of Xuanyin Sect walked out of the room obediently and waited to be interrogated.
Since most of them did not leave the courtyard after entering, the interrogation went very quickly.
Meng Wan mixed in the crowd, and soon it was her turn.
The foundation-building cultivator from Jinyun Sect looked at Meng Wan with eyes so sharp that it seemed as if he could see through her.
"What's your name? Have you ever left the yard?"
Meng Wan cooperated honestly, "My name is Meng Wan. I went out yesterday and came back after a walk."
Last name Meng?
The Foundation Establishment cultivator looked at Meng Wan a few more times and said, "What did you do after you left? Who did you meet? Tell me the truth!"
Meng Wan looked innocent. "I didn't do anything after I left. I found out this mountain was barren, so I walked around and came back."
Although Meng Wan's cultivation level was only the seventh level of Qi Refining, the foundation-building cultivators of Jinyun Sect still found her suspicious.
These evil cultivators have so many strange and bizarre methods, who knows if she has any hidden abilities?
"Stand over there. Don't move without my permission!"
Meng Wan understood that she was being regarded as a key suspect.
But she didn't say anything and just did as she was told.
The interrogation is still going on, and basically everyone who left the yard yesterday has become a key suspect.
After interrogating everyone, the foundation-building cultivator snorted coldly.
"There are thirty-two disciples participating in the Five Sects Conference, but there are only thirty-one here. Where is the other one? Where did he go?"
Someone replied, "Senior Brother Wu Yue hasn't returned since he left yesterday."
Wu Yue...the Foundation Establishment cultivator's eyes became deep.
He had heard of this name. This person was as famous as his junior apprentice brother Gu Chi and was one of the favorites to be the champion of this Five Sects Conference.
The foundation-building cultivator took out the communication order and gave the order.
"Pass the order down. Arrest the demon cultivator Wu Yue within the Jinyun Sect. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed on the spot..."
Before he could finish his words, a powerful spiritual energy hit the communication token in his hand, interrupting his communication.
"Zhu Yusheng, this is really unkind of you. You want to attack my Xuanyin Sect disciples while we're away?"
The person who came was wearing a long green dress. She was the Bishui Fairy from the Xuanyin Sect.
Following the Fairy of Green Water, Blood Lotus Seed, Red Flame Seed and Black Mountain Taoist came together and stood together with the Fairy of Green Water, forming an oppressive trend against Zhu Yusheng.
Zhu Yusheng's expression darkened. "A disciple of my sect was killed. I'm investigating the matter. If Wu Yue cooperates, I won't make things difficult for him."
Fairy Bishui sneered repeatedly.
"Oh, the truth is entirely up to you. Who knows if you will deliberately slander my Xuanyin Sect disciple and pin the blame on him?"
The others also joined in, "That's right, the death of your Jinyun Sect's inner disciples is your own business. If you dare to extend your hands to our Xuanyin Sect, don't blame us for being unreasonable!"
Zhu Yusheng felt a little regretful. He did have the idea of taking the opportunity to kill Wu Yue, but unfortunately the people from Xuanyin Sect arrived too quickly.
He said indifferently, "I just want to get to the bottom of the matter. After all, my Jinyun Sect's disciple died after you arrived."
"That's interesting. If a dog dies in your Jinyun Sect, can you really blame it on my Xuanyin Sect?"
Fairy Bishui snorted coldly, "What evidence do you have to prove that this was done by my disciples? If you can't produce any evidence, please leave immediately."
Zhu Yusheng frowned and was about to say something when the communication order on his body suddenly vibrated.
He picked up the summons and after listening to the latest information, his eyes were fixed directly on Meng Wan.
"Your name is Meng Wan? Are you Meng Junxing's sister?"
Meng Wan was a little confused and quickly turned to look at the blood lotus seeds.
After getting the latter's approval, she said, "I do have a brother named Meng Junxing."
"How dare you say you are innocent!"
Zhu Yusheng burst out with a powerful aura and pressed towards Meng Wan, "You were the one who killed Meng Junxing, right?"
Meng Wan was directly pressed down, with blood flowing out of her mouth and nose, but her eyes were full of surprise.
"Meng Junxing is dead? Haha, ha, that's great, ha!"
Zhu Yusheng became even angrier and was about to continue interrogating him when a figure blocked his way.
“That’s enough!”
It was Blood Lotus Seed who took action. When she was in Xuanyin Sect, she did not allow others to hit her in the face, let alone in Jinyun Sect.
"Zhu Yusheng, you dare to attack my people? Do you want to fight with me?"
A look of fear flashed in Zhu Yusheng's eyes, but he was unwilling to let Meng Wan go.
"Didn't you hear her admit just now that she is the sister of a deceased disciple of my Jinyun Sect, and there is a big feud between the two of them!"
Xue Lianzi said impatiently, "There are so many people in the world of cultivation who have grudges against each other. If you have evidence to prove that Meng Wan was the one who killed her, you can do whatever you want with her.
But if you can't produce any evidence and still attack my Xuanyin Sect disciples, don't blame me, Blood Lotus Seed, for turning against you!"
Zhu Yusheng felt unwilling in his heart that Meng Junxing died in his own cave, and was killed by the explosion of the golden fire bead.
After his death, not even a slightly larger bone was left, so where was the evidence left?
Seeing that Zhu Yusheng had nothing to say, a murderous look flashed in Xue Lianzi's eyes.
"Since there's no evidence, then it's slander? You injured my Xuanyin Sect disciple for no reason. This matter cannot be let go like this!"
Zhu Yusheng said in exasperation, "Meng Wan and Meng Junxing have a grudge. Her behavior yesterday was very suspicious..."
Before he could finish, Blood Lotus Seed interrupted him.
"Your Jinyun Sect always practices the principle of presumption of innocence, right? Why do you treat us differently when it comes to the Xuanyin Sect? I think you are deliberately making things difficult for us!"
How can I use common sense to deal with you, a group of demonic cultivators?
Zhu Yusheng was extremely angry, but he also knew that it would not work to pin the crime on Meng Wan based on just a little suspicion.
"Oh, there's no need to argue about the truth. Those who do evil will eventually perish. You evil cultivators will receive retribution sooner or later!"
Looking at Zhu Yusheng who left with resentment after saying those harsh words, Blood Lotus Seed became angry.
"You hurt my people and you still dare to curse me. Zhu Yusheng, stop right there!"
"That's enough. Don't really call them back."
Fairy Bishui shook her head at Blood Lotus Seed, "This is the Jinyun Sect's territory after all, so stop yelling."
Blood Lotus Seed rolled his eyes, threw a bottle of pills to Meng Wan, and after comforting everyone with a few words, he left with Fairy Bishui and the others.
As for whether Meng Junxing was killed by Meng Wan, these Xuanyin Sect's foundation-building cultivators really don't care.
Meng Wan held the pill in her hand, knowing that this hurdle was finally passed.
As long as the Jinyun Sect cannot produce evidence, even if someone suspects that she was the murderer, there is nothing they can do to her.
