Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 300 Elder Taishi (Seeking monthly votes)
A woman as delicate as a white flower, not particularly beautiful, yet possessing a pitiful charm that evoked tenderness. With a vacant gaze, she slowly said, "As soon as he enters, I will tear open my clothes and unleash the palm power hidden within me. Elder Taishi of the Mirror Flower Sword Boat will rush in, pretending to defend Sun Yanwan, but he will spread the news."

"More than ten gangs have already taken on the job of publicizing this matter, and they all want to say the same thing: he killed her after failing to rape her..."

The five elders of the Hu family all turned pale, and even the three withered-looking elders couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

If this succeeds, Sun Yanwan's reputation will be ruined! The Hu family will be destroyed!
This incident occurred at Dangmo Manor. It was arranged by the seventh elder, Hu Yunqian, and the other four elders were also aware of it. Who would believe that this wasn't done by someone from the Hu family?
Although the Hu family, known for its powerful martial arts, boasts a grandmaster, Hu Qingdi has not appeared for many years. Currently, there are only five elders and three elders who have just emerged from seclusion. One of these three elders is not even at the Innate Realm, while the other two, although at the Innate Realm, have prematurely aged bodies. Knowing that they are limited by their age and have no hope of further advancement, they turned to devoting themselves to creating a martial art to benefit the descendants of the Hu family.

Although the Hu family, known for its demon-slaying prowess, was already extremely powerful in the martial arts world, how could they withstand the wrath of the Songyang Sect?

Not to mention, Sun Yanwan has many powerful forces behind her.

The ruthlessness of this plan lies in the fact that Sun Yanwan must be a good person.

If he acted decisively and killed the witnesses, killing the woman sent by the palace and the Grand Historian of the Mirror Flower Sword Boat, there would be no evidence against him, and he would be fine.

A seemingly weak and innocent woman suddenly tears open her clothes, revealing extremely strange injuries on her body. Why wouldn't the green-headed idiot step in to save her?

Anyone who tries to save someone will be trapped in the urn.

With Elder Taishi appearing and doing his best to save face for Sun Yanwan, how could he possibly harbor murderous intent? He might even think that the matter could be refuted, but by the time Elder Taishi spread the word, the situation was already irreversible.

Everyone in the Hu family knew that Elder Taishi, who had committed this crime, would likely not survive and would most likely be silenced.

If Elder Taishi dies, even if Sun Yanwan jumps into every river in Dalang, she will not be able to wash away the filth on her body.

He raped an innocent woman, then assaulted her in a fit of lust, and subsequently murdered her...

Even if the Songyang Sect knew they were innocent, they probably wouldn't dare to protect them, so they could only vent their anger on the Hu family.

The plan was meticulously crafted and sophisticated, with each step linked to the next. However, no one expected that Sun Yanwan would be sleeping so soundly that she would not come out to check.

However, the person who devised this plan also had a second contingency plan: if Sun Yanwan couldn't be lured away, then once his subordinates were, they would have a story to tell. This woman would describe how innocent she was, how she was persecuted by the Hu family, and provide some evidence, hoping that Sun Yanwan's men would help pass it on to this literary leader of Da Lang, so that he could help her seek justice.

How to redress this injustice is a matter for another time. As long as Sun Yanwan accepts that piece of tattered silk, even if she doesn't show up, there will be countless rumors. For example, Sun Yanwan may have obtained evidence of Zhang Qingxi's rebellion and is trying to cover it up. Or, Sun Yanwan may have had an affair with someone in the palace, and this woman may be the messenger, with the tattered silk as a token. All sorts of rumors are hard to guard against.

Hu Yunshou sighed and said, "Kill this woman!"

This kind of woman cannot be kept alive, nor should she be allowed to live. She must be killed quietly and dealt with cleanly.

After saying this, he couldn't help but ask, "The three elders have been in seclusion for many years. Have they created any divine skills or unique techniques?"

The three gaunt-faced elders said together, "We created a unique spiritual technique called 'Three Questions of the Heart Demon.' We just used this technique to confuse this woman and make her unable to hide her secrets."

"This woman originally had a strong will, but she has already been tortured by the Heavenly Martial Illusionary World Technique. That is why our Three Questions on the Heart Demon were able to so easily force her to reveal this great secret." "Here is the secret manual of the Three Questions on the Heart Demon. You can choose to pass it on to your young disciples. It will surely cultivate talents for my Hu family."

The three gaunt elders had just used their extraordinary skills to make the woman reveal her secrets, which made the five elders of the Hu family extremely envious. The Hu family did not have any extraordinary spiritual skills, and they all secretly thought, "If we could be taught the Three Questions of the Heart Demon, we might also have a chance to become a grandmaster."

The seventh brother, Hu Yunqian, had the most volatile temper. This time, he was almost in trouble again, and he was filled with resentment. He struck the woman with a palm, killing her, and then ordered his men to drag her out and destroy the evidence.

After the five elders of the Hu family took the secret manual of the Three Questions of the Heart Demon and left the residence of the three elders, they whispered to each other, "We must tell Scholar Sun about this. We can't let that Grand Historian Elder get away with it."

They all deeply resented this matter, but they had no evidence, and they couldn't let the woman come out to confront the Grand Historian, because if this matter were exposed, the Hu family would be unable to extricate themselves from the affair.

After all, the Hu family originally intended to use Sun Yanwan's beauty to drag her into the mess, so they weren't exactly clean to begin with.

Sun Yanwan learned of this matter quickly; it took the five elders of the Hu family going through a network of connections to pass on the message.

When Sun Yanwan learned of this, she couldn't help but feel shocked, thinking to herself, "I almost became the 'Little Sun Who Chases the Wind'!"

"Besides, at least on Earth, people don't use human lives to frame others. Their methods are crude and rely on brutality. Where can you find such professionalism and subtlety?"

"If I really fall into the trap, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain myself clearly."

"Is that fairy in the palace a time traveler? How could she have learned such ruthless methods?"

Sun Yanwan announced that he was unwell that day and needed to recuperate at a nearby Taoist temple. He also told the two families to come back to him to discuss the matter once they had obtained the sword manual. Without delay, he moved out immediately.

Sun Yanwan found a Taoist temple nearby and, on the principle of "voluntary" action, bound all the original Taoist priests and escorted them to Jin Diao City to spread the Xuanhuang Taoism and allow her own people to move in.

Xuanhuang, Taiqing, and the Jade Emperor were originally Taoist beliefs in the Great Lang Dynasty. For example, the Songyang Sect was the ancestral temple of Xuanhuang Taoism. It is beyond doubt that Sun Yanwan changed the Taoist temples under his control to believe in Xuanhuang Taoism. It is impossible for the Taoist temples controlled by the Songyang Sect disciples to believe in Taiqing and the Jade Emperor.

Not to mention that the Guanxin Sect originally belonged to the Xuanhuang Dao lineage.

Sun Yanwan merely created the Three Transformations of Xuanhuang, transforming into Buddha, Heavenly Demon, and Sun God. Sometimes she was the Great Sun on the grasslands, and sometimes she was the Sun Goddess of Boshi Kingdom. She did not fundamentally change anything.

The twenty-four cities he now controls are distinctly Buddhist and Taoist, and the faith of the Sun God Temple remains unchanged, only now, under the mystical transformation, they are all unified.

There was already a shortage of professional Taoist priests, but once these priests arrived in Golden Sable City, they would be put to great use after a simple training. They might even experience a leap in their careers, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.

Of course, if these Taoist priests whose temples have been occupied are truly unwilling, they can return to their temples after Sun Yanwan has finished dealing with matters here, and continue to take over the temples.
