"Then... what did that old bastard Tianyuan say about Daoist Qianhe? Did he clearly find out, or admit, that he was connected with the Blood Sect?"
Shen Yunhao continued to press, his tone carrying a hint of seriousness.
Although Daoist Qianhe is dead, the way his identity is defined directly determines the specific nature of the event "Shen Yunhao killed Daoist Qianhe"... whether it was acting on behalf of Heaven or killing a righteous elder.
Hearing this, Qing Teng's little face also showed indignation, "Tai Xuan Dao Sect... they claimed to the outside world that there was no evidence and that Daoist Qianhe and the Blood Sect had no clear connection!"
"whispering sound!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao sneered. Just as he was about to mock her, the girl continued, "However, they say that Daoist Qianhe is secretly practicing evil arts and is suspected of falling into the demonic path. In addition, he failed to supervise the affiliated sects effectively, which led to the large-scale infiltration of Baihe Temple by the Blood Sect, resulting in a grave mistake."
The Tai Xuan Dao Sect has now officially issued a notice expelling Daoist Qianhe from the sect and stripping him of all titles!
Shen Yunhao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "This Tianyuan Sect Master is as obsessed with saving face as ever. Practicing evil arts, and having subordinates all from the Blood Sect... How different is this from directly admitting that he is a Blood Sect spy? It's just a slightly better-sounding title. It's just nitpicking and self-deception!"
He paused, then said with a hint of mockery, "So, according to them, if Zi'er and I joined forces to kill Qianhe, wouldn't that be equivalent to removing a 'malignant tumor' from their Tai Xuan Dao Sect? Shouldn't they thank us?"
Qing Teng shook his head and answered honestly, "They didn't mention that Brother Yunhao and Sister killed Daoist Qianhe. The announcement didn't mention it at all, nor did it convey any attitude."
"No attitude?" Shen Yunhao stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Is this feigning ignorance, or... being intimidated by the Demon Emperor's attack?"
He felt the latter was highly likely. After all, the Demon Emperor's personal intervention to rescue people was a powerful deterrent. No matter how strong the Tai Xuan Dao Sect was, they would have to think twice.
However, since the matter is already in the past, there's no point in dwelling on these minor details.
Upon hearing Qing Teng mention Mo Yan, he immediately pulled himself back to reality and asked with concern, "Let's not worry about them for now. What about Zi'er? Is she alright?"
At that time, Mo Yan was affected by the evil soul's blood energy, and Han Haixin was not on his body, so he used a secret technique to forcibly transfer his cultivation into his body, and then fell into a coma.
He himself was severely injured by that force, so the price Mo Yan paid was probably no less.
“My sister is alright,” Qing Teng reassured her. “She has returned to the Dark Abyss and is now safe and recovering slowly.”
Hearing that Mo Yan was safe, Shen Yunhao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good..."
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Then... let her come out for a bit? I have something I want to tell her."
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Qing Teng's eyes flickered, her small hands unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face: "Brother Shen Yunhao... Sister, she's not here right now, she's probably in meditation, recovering her energy..."
"Entering into meditation?" Shen Yunhao narrowed his eyes, staring at her suspiciously, and beckoned with his finger, "Qing Teng, come here!"
The girl seemed to have a premonition, her eyes becoming even more unfocused, but she still obediently leaned down and moved to Shen Yunhao's pillow, asking timidly, "Brother Yunhao?"
Shen Yunhao turned his head, his lips close to her crystal-clear earlobe, his breath warm as he gently bit it, then whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"When did this silly girl learn to actively inquire about so much outside news? You brat, stop hiding behind and peeking, come out right now!"
"..."
Qing Teng's face instantly turned bright red, followed by a hint of grievance as she took the blame for someone else. She pouted and whispered, "Brother Shen Yunhao... Sister said... she doesn't want to come out..."
Shen Yunhao was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized.
Oh right, this girl is still angry! She really doesn't care about her brother at all...
Having figured out the reason, Shen Yunhao remained silent for a moment before finally sighing and relaxing back down. "Alright... as long as she's alright... as long as she's safe..."
Seeing his expression, Qing Teng blinked and obediently added, "Brother Yun Hao, actually, my sister was originally in seclusion deep in the Dark Abyss cultivating and recovering, but as soon as she heard that you had woken up, her consciousness immediately returned! My sister still cares about you very much..."
However, before he could finish speaking, his entire demeanor suddenly changed!
Her original docile and obedient demeanor was instantly replaced by a gloomy aura, and her emerald green eyes seemed to be tinged with a deep purple light.
The girl's eyebrows shot up, and she turned and said angrily:
"What nonsense are you spouting? You dare to speculate about something based on a mere broken vine? I think you are..."
Mo Yan was speaking when she suddenly noticed Shen Yunhao's ambiguous smile and froze on the spot.
"Ahem! Um... um... if there's nothing else, I'll be going now... Huh?! You damn Green Vine! Why are you hiding? Come out here!"
Mo Yan seemed to want to forcibly return control of the body to Qing Teng, but found that Qing Teng's consciousness had retreated deep into the sea of consciousness and refused to come out, leaving her alone here.
Shen Yunhao was surprised that the usually well-behaved Qing Teng would pull such a clever escape, but he couldn't help feeling a warmth in his heart...
Qing Teng... after so long, she's become even more sensible.
She's so sensible... it's almost heartbreaking.
Seeing the awkward expression on the girl's face, as if she wanted to get angry but could only hold it in, Shen Yunhao curled his lips and said, "Why don't you learn from others? You're supposed to be the older sister, but you're not as sensible as your younger sister!"
"you!"
Mo Yan gritted her teeth in anger, her cute face, usually reserved for green vines, now contorted with a wicked vine-like embarrassment and indignation. "If you think she's sensible, then go find her! Why did you call me out?!"
After saying that, she angrily waved her hand away, shaking off Shen Yunhao's fingers that had been gently resting on the back of her hand again. However, she didn't control her strength well and aggravated Shen Yunhao's injuries.
"hiss--"
Shen Yunhao gasped, his brows furrowing tightly.
Seeing him like this, Mo Yan instantly became obedient, her temper temporarily forgotten. She stopped all her movements, sat up straight, and her suddenly softened voice unconsciously carried a hint of reproach: "You should just rest properly, why are you showing off... always getting injured like this..."
Shen Yunhao couldn't help but smile. He endured the pain, raised his finger, and gently touched the girl's soft, warm cheek, looking tenderly at her eyes that were filled with tension.
"Still angry..."
