The Sword-wielding Elder paced back and forth. If he didn't punish Lin Yaoxie this time, he would have failed Tianyong City and the other disciples.

But this really wasn't done by Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie walked up to Ling Yue and looked at him pleadingly. He said, "Senior brother, please believe me. I didn't do this at all."

At this point, Ling Yue couldn't explain what had happened either, so he pleaded with the Sword-Holding Elder for leniency.

He said, "Master, I think this matter is too suspicious, and I don't think Senior Brother Lin Yaoxie would lie, so let's investigate this matter first before making a judgment."

Just because this disciple possesses demonic qualities doesn't mean he was killed by evil spirits. Perhaps other disciples among us 390 also harbor demonic qualities without our knowledge.

The elder holding the sword glared at Ling Yue.

Then he said, "Don't always speak up for him. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. By the way, Yaoxie, you should stay in Lengqing Palace for the next few days."

Lengqing Palace is a place where no one lives. The Sword Elder's meaning is quite clear: he is to place him under house arrest there.

Lin Yaoxie knew that this matter was of great importance, so he respected the opinion of the Sword-Holding Elder.

He nodded and then said, "I will follow Master's opinion."

Lin Yaoxie then went to Lengqing Palace on his own initiative.

On his way there, Lin Yaoxie kept thinking about what was going on and why that disciple was in his room while he was completely unaware of it.

Did that disciple come to him and commit suicide on his own, or was someone deliberately harming him?

Lin Yaoxie thought about it over and over, but he should know either way.

Lin Yaoxie thought that he must have practiced swordsmanship too late last night, which was why he was so sleepy and fell asleep, and he didn't even notice someone coming in.

It was at this moment that he met Ouyang Shaogong.

Ouyang Shaogong walked over and said, "Senior Brother Yaoxie, what's going on? I haven't been feeling well these past few days and have been lying in my room. I didn't know what was happening outside, but after hearing the commotion, I rushed over immediately."

Lin Yaoxie looked at Ouyang Shaogong, who had a worried expression, and was deeply moved.

So Lin Yaoxie said, "Senior Brother Ouyang, you shouldn't worry about this matter. Elder Zhijian is already thoroughly investigating it. He told me to go stay in Leng Qingkong first, so I'm leaving now."

Lin Yaoxie patted Ouyang Shaogong on the shoulder as he spoke.

Ouyang Shaogong caught up with him again and said, "Senior Brother Yaoxie, don't worry about this matter. I will definitely help you investigate it thoroughly."

Lin Yaoxie nodded, walking absentmindedly.

After watching Lin Yaoxie leave, Ouyang Shaogong dropped his concerned expression and sneered: "Lin Yaoxie, you're in for a world of hurt."

After that, Ouyang Shaogong rushed over to the Sword-Holding Elder. After all, he still had to do this, even though he knew that the Sword-Holding Elder would not let Lin Yaoxie off easily.

Ouyang Shaogong arrived at the Sword-Holding Elder's place.

Ling Yue and Hong Yu were preparing to leave.

Ouyang Shaogong looked anxious again.

He asked, "Ling Yue, what did Elder Zhijian say? Didn't you plead with him?"

Ling Yue shook his head and said, "We've already pleaded, but Elder Zhijian hasn't given us an answer yet. Judging from your appearance, you're going to plead with Elder Zhijian too. I advise you to give up."

Ling Yue said with a serious expression, "You should go back."

Ouyang Shaogong shook his head and then said, "I must plead for my senior brother here."

After he finished speaking, he went inside.

After going inside, he had a long talk with the Sword-Holding Elder, but no matter what he said, the Sword-Holding Elder still refused to release him.

Ouyang Shaogong said to the Sword-wielding Elder, "Elder, I think you can't detain people before the matter is investigated. If you don't release Senior Brother Yaoxie, I will kneel outside for a long time."

After Ouyang Shaogong finished speaking, he knelt down in front of the Sword-Holding Elder's house.

This kneeling lasted for several hours.

After the elder with the sword came out, he looked at Lin Yaoxie and shook his head helplessly. Even so, he would not let Lin Yaoxie go.

He continued to investigate the matter thoroughly, believing that Lin Yaoxie was the most likely culprit.

And that disciple kept proclaiming that the successor was killed by Lin Yaoxie...

Therefore, the situation has reached a stalemate.

Panic gripped Tianyong City.

Because Tianyong City possesses the Fenji Shaqi Sword, everyone is worried that they will be injured by his sword.

Ling Yue went to suppress these rumors.

Chapter 133 Days in the Cold Palace

After Lin Yaoxie stayed in Lengqing Palace for a few days, Elder Zhijian sent other disciples to deliver food to him.

The food delivered was extremely unpalatable, but Lin Yaoxie had no choice but to eat a few bites in order to survive.

The reason the Sword-wielding Elder didn't allow anyone else to deliver it was because he was worried that there might be some kind of deal between them.

This puts Tianyong City in an even more dangerous situation.

The Sword-wielding Elder didn't particularly like Lin Yaoxie to begin with.

The one who has always liked Lin Yaoxie is Master Ziyin.

Elder Zhijian did not intend to tell Master Ziyin about this matter.

Otherwise, Master Ziyin would definitely have emerged from seclusion earlier.

This will definitely have a great impact on his cultivation level, so Elder Zhijian told everyone that this matter must be kept secret.

Everyone knew perfectly well that if Master Ziyin found out, Elder Zhijian would definitely not let them off the hook, so no one said anything about it.

Another point is that if Master Ziyin finds out, he will definitely release Lin Yaoxie.

Therefore, no one told Master Ziyin about this.

Although Lin Yaoxie was in the desolate Qing Palace, he still did not forget to practice his sword.

Lin Yaoxie picked up his sword and began to practice.

His cultivation level is truly getting higher and higher.

Another disciple came to deliver food that day.

After seeing Lin Yaoxie's sword, he hid far away.

After Lin Yaoxie saw him, he put away his sword.

Then he said to the disciple, "I won't hurt you, you don't need to be so afraid."

After hearing this, the disciple took the food and went over.

The disciple questioned, "Was it really not you who killed that disciple who was next to Ling Duan before? After all, you and Senior Brother Ling Duan don't usually get along."

Lin Yaoxie said firmly, "I really didn't kill that disciple. I know very well what I was doing."

The disciple smiled and then left.

He opened the food and began to eat.

The meals that day were as bland and tasteless as usual.

However, Lin Yaoxie no longer minds.

After eating, Lin Yaoxie rested for a while.

He was very bored during this period because he couldn't contact people outside, which made him very irritable.

When he was out there, he only interacted with a few people, but now he doesn't have a single person.

Just as Lin Yaoxie was spacing out and bored, Feng Qingxue suddenly climbed over the wall.

Lin Yaoxie looked at her in surprise.

After Feng Qingxue climbed over, she jumped down from the wall.

Then Lin Yaoxie walked towards her.

Lin Yaoxie said incredulously, "Qingxue, what are you doing here? And you even climbed over the wall! You're really amazing. If the Sword-Holding Elders find out, they'll definitely punish you. You should go back quickly."

Feng Qingxue clapped her hands and said, "Don't worry, Elder Zhijian went out today. Besides, I've already come all this way, how could I leave so easily?"

Feng Qingxue then took out a piece of cloth from her pocket. After she unfolded the cloth, Lin Yaoxie smelled a delicious aroma; it was a roast chicken.

Feng Qingxue said happily, "Senior Brother Yaoxie, I've come to bring you some roast chicken."

0oo is asking for flowers.....

So the two of them sat down, and Lin Yaoxie began to eat.

He hadn't eaten meat for several days.

Feng Qingxue watched Lin Yaoxie eat, then said, "Senior Brother Yaoxie, eat slowly. Those people must have mistreated you again. I knew they were up to no good." Feng Qingxue began to complain.

Lin Yaoxie shook his head and said, "Actually, it's alright. After all, my relationship with them wasn't good to begin with, so it's already quite kind of them to bring me food."

Feng Qingxue said, "How about this, after I go out, I'll go and tell Elder Zhijian that I'll bring you meals from now on."

0 ....

Lin Yaoxie replied, "That won't be necessary. You should practice your sword more. If you stay here too long, the Sword Elder will definitely be unhappy and punish you too. I don't want to drag you down with me."

After finishing the chicken leg of a roast chicken, Lin Yaoxie wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Feng Qingxue.

He never expected that Feng Qingxue would come to see him at this crucial moment.

The two continued chatting for a while longer.

Lin Yaoxie was worried that the Sword-wielding Elder would cause trouble for Feng Qingxue when he returned.

So he told Feng Qingxue to go back quickly.

But Feng Qingxue wanted to wander around here a little longer, because she would be bored if she went outside.

Feng Qingxue walked around the Lengqing Palace and found it to be extremely desolate and cold.

At least there's scenery to see outside.

Here, there are no people, and no scenery.
