Chapter 70 Wei Henian's Anger

Finally, he took out the heads of the three Bai brothers and said, "Fortunately, there is always a way out. I managed to escape with my life and saw that the three of them were injured in the Black Mountain. That's why I ambushed and killed them. This can be considered revenge for Senior Brother Han and the others."

At this point, Li Yunjing's eyes reddened, and his voice carried a hint of sorrow.

"This guy……"

This scene caused the Foundation Establishment cultivators to frown slightly; this kid seemed quite dishonest!
Whether it's true or false is no longer the important thing.

There was no way to verify the case after the death, and even the three Bai brothers were silenced.

What else is there to investigate?
Of course, the Shenxiao Dao Sect has many ways to find out the truth.

What about "heavenly secrets," "soul-searching techniques," "tracking techniques,"...

Every supernatural power can do this!
However, these are not things that ordinary disciples can master. What important figure would have the time to personally make a trip for the trivial matter of four outer disciples?
Even if an inner disciple dies, the important figures won't care!
Unless they are their direct descendants or personal disciples!
"Cough cough!"

Zhong Hongtai was naturally shocked by Li Yunjing's words.

This kid is really good at making things up.

However, seeing the remains of the "Crimson Sun Serpent" and the unseeing heads of the three Bai brothers, this case wasn't particularly difficult to handle.

"Hmm! Very good! Once my 'Enforcement Hall' has investigated and confirmed that what you said is true, I will naturally reward you."

However, Li Yunjing was too powerful, having brought out someone like Yu Tingchuan, and also had connections with the young master of the Fu family. Zhong Hongtai had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.

Zhong Hongtai thought to himself, "At my advanced age! A man like me has actually resorted to embezzlement, bribery, and turning black into white!"

Unfortunately, his lifespan was limited, and he still wanted to continue the glory of his descendants, so Zhong Hongtai had no choice but to board the Fu family's pirate ship.

"Yes! Steward Zhong will certainly uphold the law impartially. Yunyi, I will take my leave now."

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Yu Tingchuan nodded calmly and stood up, saying, "Gentlemen, I have another batch of pills to refine urgently, farewell!"

"Fellow Daoist Yu, take care!"

Zhong Hongtai, Palace Master Li, and their entourage all stood up and escorted this important figure away.

It wasn't until they watched Yu Tingchuan transform into a streak of light and disappear into the horizon that the group came to their senses.

There are vast differences between Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators!

A figure like Yu Tingchuan is not inferior in status to even the Golden Core Realm patriarchs of a sect.

Upon seeing Yu Tingchuan, the expressions of the group of Foundation Establishment Realm experts were incredibly complex.

As for Li Yunjing's matter, it was a trivial matter.

After staying for a while and putting on a good show, Zhong Hongtai took his leave with the people from the "Enforcement Hall".

Next, Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi bid farewell to Hall Master Li and the others, preparing to report to the outer sect.

Within a sect, once one's cultivation reaches the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm, there will naturally be an opportunity for assessment.

"Let's go! I'll go with you so you won't be mistreated or assigned a bad job."

Using the teleportation array, Yu Yunyi led Li Yunjing towards the southern mountains.

Within the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," apart from the central peaks, the eastern part is where the true disciples gather; the northern part is the territory of the inner disciples; and the southern part is where the outer disciples reside.

The gathering places on each mountain peak are not determined by one's level of cultivation.

It was simply categorized based on the disciples' background and activity heatmap.

True disciples would also go to other peaks to participate in activities, and some outer disciples were also sent to the areas where true disciples and inner disciples were located to complete tasks.

These are not fixed, and even the surrounding mountains are not divided in this way. It's just that over time, the disciples have come to accept this division of different levels among themselves.

While Yu Yunyi accompanied Li Yunjing to the southern mountains, Ye Long transformed into a streak of light, weaving through the mountains towards "Wanfa Peak". A short while later, Ye Long, with a hint of panic on his face, burst into "Wanfa Palace".

"What's going on? Why are you so panicked? Is there no composure left in the hands of an inner disciple?"

Upon seeing his trusted confidant arrive, Wei Henian frowned and shouted.

"Senior brother, something's happened!"

Ye Long caught his breath and hurriedly said, "News just came from the 'Miscellaneous Service Hall' that Li Yunjing has returned safely, but all four of our outer disciples are dead!"

"What! Say that again!"

Wei Henian suddenly stood up, his face filled with disbelief.

How could four outer disciples end up killing a menial servant?

Ye Long recounted the information he had obtained from the "Miscellaneous Service Hall" in great detail once more.

"How interesting! A mere servant, an ant-like thing, has actually rebelled against the heavens. Where does he get such great power!"

Wei Henian could hardly believe his ears.

If Ye Long hadn't been his trusted subordinate, he would have believed that Ye Long had betrayed him and spread false information to him.

After a long while, Wei Henian finally calmed down from the news from the Fu and Yu families, his face turning terribly gloomy.

"Has that little bastard Li Yunjing filed a complaint against me for abusing my power and improperly assigning him a job?"

Wei Henian looked at Ye Long coldly and asked in a low voice.

As for the four outer disciples who died, Wei Henian paid no attention to them. They were four useless people; once they were dead, they were dead. They were useless, and keeping them alive would only be a waste of resources.

"Our people said that Li Yunjing did not mention this matter!"

Ye Long looked at Wei Henian's cold gaze and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"You bastard! What time is it, and you're still stammering?"

Seeing Ye Long's cowardly appearance, Wei Henian suddenly overturned the table, smashing all the spiritual fruits, spiritual tea, and tea sets on the ground to pieces.

"Senior brother, please calm down!"

Ye Long was startled; his heart nearly jumped out of his throat.

"That's right! It seems that Zhong Hongtai tried to lure Li Yunjing into reporting the unfairness of the mission, but Li Yunjing did not take the bait and did not act according to his wishes."

"Zhong Hongtai! I'll make sure you suffer a terrible death one day! Your family will also be implicated and die a horrible death!"

Hearing that Zhong Hongtai was still opposing him, Wei Henian was furious.

"You little beast! At least he has some self-awareness!"

Thinking of Li Yunjing, Wei Henian's expression softened slightly. After a moment's thought, he asked, "What's that kid doing now?"

"Senior brother, it seems he went to the 'Foreign Affairs Hall' accompanied by Yu Yunyi."

Ye Long said in a low voice.

"Oh? You've reached the fourth level of Qi Refining? Are you going to advance to the outer disciple level?"

Wei Henian raised an eyebrow and asked in a sinister tone.

"Yes! I don't know how this kid cultivated, but in less than two months he advanced from the first level of Qi Refining to the fourth level! It seems he has a secret!"

A flash of jealousy crossed Ye Long's eyes as he spoke decisively.
