“At first, we didn’t believe it either, but later, after the Yun family had a major incident and was rumored to be wiped out, your Dan Sect chose to close its mountain because Sect Master Mo failed to ascend to immortality. That was nearly a thousand years ago.” Huang Daohong explained in detail while carefully recalling the years to make sure he didn’t make any mistakes: “The Qu family and the Jin family both captured descendants of the Yun family and publicly verified that those two descendants of the Yun family were demons. Later, the Dong Dan family also captured descendants of the Yun family several times and publicly verified them as well. So this method spread among the various families.”
"Yes, yes, our Jin family was the first to discover that energy stones could identify demons," said Jin Zhongcheng, the eldest elder of the Jin family, quite proudly.
Whenever this matter is mentioned, the Jin family makes its presence felt, and it was because of this matter that the Jin family filled the vacancy among the Eight Great Families.
"So it's your Jin family," Ji Fengyao said with a smile as she turned to Jin Zhongcheng. "I'm very curious, how did you connect the Moonstone with the Demon Clan? Does the Moonstone's glow reflect demonic energy?"
"Moonstone, oh no, it should be called an energy stone now. The energy stone glows, but it can't detect demonic energy. However, once the spiritual power of the Yun family members is drained, their demonic nature will be revealed, showing their true colors," Jin Zhongcheng said matter-of-factly. "Back then, those two Yun family members came to our Jin family to hide. At that time, their spiritual power was almost exhausted. Later, one of our disciples discovered by chance that they could make the energy stone glow, as if they were absorbing energy from it. When that disciple questioned them further, the two Yun family members started fighting with him, inadvertently revealing their true colors. That's how we discovered that the energy stone can identify demons."
As Jin Zhongcheng spoke, Wu Dongyu, who was standing outside the door, couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.
The Yun family never knew where the trouble came from until they were wiped out. It turned out that the Jin family had betrayed the Yun family!
He had always wondered why the Jin family, which was originally affiliated with the Yun family, was not implicated like other small families affiliated with the Yun family, but instead replaced the Yun family and became one of the eight major families. It turned out that they used the Yun family as a stepping stone!
Ji Fengyao and Xi Que also sensed something amiss. Although Jin Zhongcheng's expression didn't change much, their hearts turned completely cold.
Compared to the Zhou family and the Dongdan family, it seems the Jin family deserves to die even more!
"Besides the Jin family, have any of you here personally verified this method?"
Ji Fengyao's smile turned cold, and she glanced at everyone present with a half-smile.
Her purpose in using the Resurrection Pill to lure these people here was to screen out the culprit who betrayed and harmed the Yun family.
She didn't believe that the mere Jin family could deceive the eyes of all the major clans on the entire Danling Continent.
No one who embarks on the path of cultivation is a fool, let alone these great clans that stand at the top of the cultivation world.
"Well..."
Representatives from the other five major families, excluding Jin Zhongcheng, including Jun Luoying, all looked ashamed and silently shook their heads.
"Because of the strict screening by the major clans, the remnants of the Yun family have rarely appeared in recent years," Huang Daohong said with a hint of pride. "However, I did capture a remnant of the Yun family more than three hundred years ago and personally witnessed his demonization process."
Ji Fengyao narrowed her phoenix eyes and suddenly turned to Huang Daohong, asking, "Is Elder Huang sure? From the moment he was captured to the moment he turned into a demon, did Elder Huang witness the entire process without ever leaving his side?"
