Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 327 Choice
“My opinion may be heavily influenced by personal feelings.” Shen Youqing looked at Zhang Youli, who had a deep expression, and said bluntly, “Sect Leader Zhang knows about my relationship with Shen Qiuluo.”

"Speak," Zhang Youli waved his hand.

He knew Shen Youqing's temper before.

Thinking that what he was about to say might be a little presumptuous, Shen Youqing bowed first.

Seeing her posture, Zhang Youli immediately felt a pang of regret.

“I killed Qiao Jiusheng in the secret realm. Without anyone’s help, she couldn’t have left the secret realm alive and then been reborn.” Shen Youqing’s melodious voice was sharp. “After that, there wouldn’t have been any demonic cultivators attacking Yiming Mountain and other related events.”

"This disciple can testify to this matter." Xie Changyan's icy voice rang out, "Shen Youqing used deadly force, which is why we were so shocked when Qiao Jiusheng appeared at Yiming Mountain."

Zhang Youli immediately understood Shen Youqing's meaning and asked, "Shen Qiuluo?"

“Is Yiming Mountain really an exaggeration to say it’s like a demon palace?” Shen Youqing asked.

Zhang Youli shook his head. "It's not an exaggeration."

Zhongzhou City is the core area of ​​the cultivation world; this example is not an exaggeration.

“Qiao Jiusheng and Lu Jin suddenly appeared with demonic cultivators, which is perfect for us to lead a bunch of cultivators across the protective barrier, evade the demonic cultivators, and appear in the Demon Palace,” Shen Youqing gave an example. “What does Sect Leader Zhang think?”

“A mole.” Zhang Youli spoke without hesitation, then immediately understood Shen Youqing’s meaning, “You think the mole is Shen Qiuluo?”

Before Shen Youqing could speak, Xie Changyan's icy voice rang out, "That makes sense too."

Zhang Youli glanced at him sideways.

Why did Changyan suddenly become so talkative?
"Her identity," Xie Changyan said to his master, "is the third young lady of the Shen family, and Yiming Mountain happens to be located in Zhongzhou City."

Zhang Youli did not express his opinion.

Indeed, what the long banquet said made some sense.

“I don’t believe that none of the sect leaders have investigated this matter,” Shen Youqing said.

Zhang Youli spoke up, "I have no clue."

Shen Youqing didn't dwell on that issue. She moved on to the next matter, "Okay, then the next thing is the teleportation array."

"The other end of the teleportation array is Lu Jin's Demon Palace. Qiao Jiusheng was the one who planned this." Shen Youqing spread his hands and said, "They've appeared again."

One or two times could be considered a coincidence, but what about three or four times?

Can this be explained by coincidence?
The scales in Zhang Youli's heart were gradually tipping in Shen Youqing's favor.

Needless to say, Xie Changyan was another one.

He's gone way off track!

“Shen Qiuluo’s greatest tribulation in the Demon Realm was having his innate sword bone extracted.” Shen Youqing crossed his arms. “It seems that Shen Qiuluo suffered a lot of torment in the Demon Realm, but now his innate sword bone has returned.”

Fearing that Shen Youqing might not know, Zhang Youli added, "Before this, the other half of the innate sword bone was also sent over."

"Alright, now that the complete innate sword bone is in the cultivation world, returning it shouldn't be a problem. So, may I ask what Shen Qiuluo lost?"

Shen Youqing's words made the master and apprentice fall into deep thought.

"The Innate Sword Bone is only valuable within Shen Qiuluo's body, isn't it?" Shen Youqing said slowly. "Why did the Demon Realm insist on extracting the Innate Sword Bone? Was it to torture her? If they wanted to torture her, why did they send the Innate Sword Bone back?"

“Zhao Lingxi is the Xi Demon King. If Shen Qiuluo really doesn’t want to have his innate sword bone extracted, he can simply refuse. Why does he have to agree?”

"Given his abilities, would the Demon Lord kill him because of Shen Qiuluo?"

The questions, one after another, suddenly enlightened Zhang Youli.

Seeing Zhang Youli's ambiguous expression, Shen Youqing threw out the final, blunt question, "The reason Sect Leader Zhang came at this time is because he doesn't trust them, isn't it?"

If Zhang Youli had even the slightest bit of trust in Zhao Lingxi and Shen Qiuluo, he would never have come looking for them at this time, much less have shown them the letter.

"How do you know Zhao Lingxi?" Zhang Youli asked slowly. Shen Youqing raised an eyebrow. "I've been to the library quite often."

Zhang Youli understood.

“Master, Zhao Lingxi once improved the Grade 3 Clear Mind Pill.” Xie Changyan’s cold voice rang out, “In other words, any alchemist would know who he is.”

Zhang Youli glanced sideways, his gaze turning cold and deep.

Shen Qiulu is an alchemist; she could refine a third-grade Qingxin Pill long ago. There's no reason she wouldn't know who Zhao Lingxi is.

and so……

“Perhaps Shen Qiuluo can’t be trusted, but what about Zhao Lingxi?” Shen Youqing asked, glancing at the letter. “What if he really wants to surrender?”

"..." Zhang Youli looked at Shen Youqing with a hint of speechlessness, "Do you believe that?"

Shen Youqing blurted out, "I'm not stupid."

She didn't know why Zhao Lingxi fell into demonic possession, but she was certain that it wasn't because she wanted to get involved in the scheme!

Shen Youqing isn't stupid, but Zhang Youli looks like one?

Xie Changyan silently handed over the letter he had finished reading, "What does Master intend to do?"

Distracted by Xie Changyan, Zhang Youli didn't bother to talk about Shen Youqing. He put the letter away and said, "I plan to turn the tables on them."

Shen Youqing and Xie Changyan nodded, but neither of them asked any further questions.

"Does your family have any solutions for your injury?" Zhang Youli asked Shen Youqing with concern.

Shen Youqing nodded.

Zhang Youli didn't ask any further questions, he just waved his hand and said, "Go back."

He put away the barrier and watched the two enter the Yue family's barrier before leaving.

The two of them, without prior arrangement, did not use the teleportation array, but instead walked up the mountain path.

"I'd like to ask, what kind of person is Zhao Lingxi, whom you met?" Xie Changyan held up a luminous pearl to illuminate the winding mountain path.

Shen Youqing lifted her skirt and climbed up the steps, saying, "He's no good."

It was an unexpected yet predictable answer.

“I have absolutely no liking for him,” Shen Youqing continued. “If I could, I would like to bring his head back.”

Xie Changyan couldn't help but glance at Shen Youqing.

Should she listen to what she's saying?
"I would like to take Jun Su's head, but Jun Su's cultivation is too high, I'm not confident." As he said this, Shen Youqing's face was full of regret.

Xie Changyan looked at Shen Youqing with a complicated expression, and he reminded her, "Shen Youqing, you are only at the Golden Core stage now."

“This is called taking a gamble.” Shen Youqing waved his hand. “If you were in my position, you would have done the same.”

Although this is an undeniable fact, Xie Changyan still had to say a few words to Shen Youqing: "Where there's life, there's hope."

Shen Youqing looked at Xie Changyan with some suspicion, "Why have you become so long-winded?"

Xie Changyan withdrew his gaze and climbed the steps.

The soft light emitted by the luminous pearl illuminated the path beneath their feet. The surroundings were dark and quiet, yet they did not feel eerie.

In the quiet environment, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere wasn't too awkward.

Half an hour later, the two finally arrived at the teleportation array on the mountain.

A tall figure stood under a candlelight not far away, the man's face and expression obscured by shadows.

"You're back?" The deep, cold voice was unreadable.
