At this time, the elders and disciples of Taixu Sect finally arrived, and not only them, but also people from other sects who were woken up.
The originally large yard suddenly became crowded with so many people crammed into it.
Ji Jingyao finally came out of the house. After he opened the door, the noise finally stopped. Perhaps because he was woken up in the middle of the night, his face was gloomy and his gaze was cold.
Everyone present felt a silent pressure spreading.
Sect Leader Bai's doubtful gaze fell on Wei Qingqiu, whose face was covered in tears. He paused for a moment on the axe in her hand, which she had not yet retracted. "Qingqiu, why are you here?"
Ji Jingyao looked indifferent, "This is also the question I want to know."
He was so annoyed by the noise that it gave him a headache. Even after it had stopped, the sound still seemed to linger in his ears. Ji Jingyao's face turned even uglier.
Wei Qingqiu opened his mouth and said, "Master Bai Riji has lost my face, and I am unwilling to accept it...so I wanted to set up a prank formation at his door. I really didn't want to do anything to him. I'm not that kind of person."
She couldn't reveal that she had put a curse on him, nor could she let people suspect that she was trying to offer herself to him, so she made up this excuse on the spot.
Sect Leader Bai showed a disappointed expression. He had previously valued Wei Qingqiu, a diligent and talented disciple, and had planned to focus on training her. But if a person's character was not good, no matter how good his talent was, it would be useless.
"I installed surveillance cameras in the yard."
When he arrived, he installed it.
Ji Jingyao's simple words made Wei Qingqiu, who was still trying to defend himself, turn pale.
Ji Jingyao produced the surveillance video, which showed Wei Qingqiu trying to break the door's barrier with a small axe. Her lie was immediately exposed.
Master Bai was even more disappointed. Even after being caught, she did not repent and tried to make up new lies.
"So why did you break into Ji Jingyao's room?"
"If you are unwilling to confess, I, as the Sect Master, will have no choice but to expel you from the sect."
Wei Qingqiu had planned to have Taixu Sect as her backer before she rose to power, so naturally she didn't want to be expelled like this.
She burst into tears, "Master, I was wrong. I... I just like him too much."
Elder Tan from the Four Symbols Sect stepped in to smooth things over. "Well, this isn't a big deal. It's understandable that a young woman couldn't help herself and had some wrong ideas. Ji Jingyao isn't in any trouble, so why not make a big deal out of a small matter?"
He felt that Ji Jingyao was simply unromantic and would not eat the meat that was offered to him.
Just as Wei Qingqiu was about to accept the injustice, a bottle suddenly rolled down from her body. Wei Qingqiu opened her eyes wide in horror - how could the bottle containing the Gu worm that she had stored in her space ring fall out?
Why is this space ring so unreliable?
She was about to pounce and put the bottle away, but before that, Ji Jingyao had already picked up the bottle.
The bottle gave him a very disgusting smell.
"Are you planning on using this on me?"
He raised his cold eyes and fixed his gaze on Elder Tan. “Since you think it’s a small matter, then eat what’s in here.”
