"That's incredibly audacious...!"
"Elder Xue, please sit down."
These calm words still came from Yao Xiang.
Elder Xue was furious, but he couldn't go against Yao Xiang's wishes. He could only sit down. At this moment, Yao Xiang said to Ran Xinxue in a deep voice.
"Sect Leader Ran, rest assured, although we are here as guests, we will not cover up any wrongdoings committed by our disciples. Wild Fox!"
Helian Yehu slowly stood up.
It seems that he is gradually moving towards Wei Tu.
Wei Tu watched him, watching this man with a mountain-like composure and eyes as deep as black holes walk towards him.
His aura seemed to be layered upon layered, and his expression remained unchanged with each step, yet each step seemed to bring immense pressure. Although his physique was average, it seemed to contain boundless power.
Wei Tu remained calm.
While Lu Qingyan was nervous for the young man, he didn't say a word.
He didn't even change his steps until the silent Helian Yehu stopped in front of Wei Tu, his eyes glancing over the two disheveled disciples on the ground.
"Did you do this?"
Qiu Heng was panicked, but gave a haphazard response with a sense of hope.
"No...we didn't...there's no such thing at all...they're framing us..."
Now, Xia Lei has no choice but to stand firmly on one side and frantically try to salvage the situation.
"Yes... Master! You must believe us... How could we do such a thing... This was all a trap set by the Yuanjian Sect! This... this slut seduced us! And then this man framed us, it's a conspiracy!! This is a conspiracy by the Yuanjian Sect!!!"
Qin Shuangshuang was almost trembling with anger, and even Ran Xinxue was about to say something.
"boom!"
"boom!!"
Something shocking happened.
Helian Yehu, the master of these two disciples, was ranked third on the Dragon Slayer List.
He actually killed his own disciple so easily! Right here in the Treasure Light Hall! PS: It seems quite a few people don't like the recent storyline... Hmm, it's my fault. I've spent too much time on daily life and interactions, and personally, I don't want the story to be too long or complicated because I feel the pacing will be off. Although that might improve the reputation, it's probably just not my forte. I'll think about the storyline more carefully next time. Luckily, this storyline isn't too long, and the updates are fast enough, so it'll be over soon. Sorry~~
81 The Night of Fate's Choice
"..."
The Baoguang Hall fell silent instantly. Even Qin Shuangshuang, who was furious, was startled and her mind went blank for a moment.
It seems that many people did not expect Helian Yehu to make such a move at this time.
Is this upholding justice even at the cost of one's own family? Or is it murder to silence a witness...?
No matter how you look at it, it seems a bit too strange, and in their understanding, Qin Shuangshuang was not successfully violated... These two disciples were cultivated by Fulong Temple with countless resources, and they were killed just like that?
Elder Xue, who had been shouting earlier, was now ashen-faced and utterly astonished.
He looked at Yao Xiang tremblingly, but Yao Xiang didn't respond at all. Instead, he spoke to himself.
"Elder Xue, take the person away. Remember to bring him back to Fulong Temple for burial."
Elder Xue hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "Yes..."
The atmosphere in the entire hall seemed to have dropped to freezing point; apart from footsteps and the sound of tidying up, there seemed to be nothing else.
A deathly silence descended.
Until Helian Yehu looked intently at Wei Tu, who had narrowed his eyes.
"Wei Tu... I'll remember you."
Wei Tu's narrowed eyes held a smile, seemingly less shocked than the person in front of him.
"That would be an honor for me."
Helian Yehu returned to his seat.
Yao Xiang broke the silence at this moment.
"This incident is a disgrace to our Fulong Temple. Of course, we will not allow such morally corrupt disciples to exist. Since this young lady was not violated and they have received their due punishment, please do not take it to heart, Sect Master Ran."
Ran Xinxue glanced at Wei Tu, who remained expressionless, only displaying a faint smile.
Then she looked at Yao Xiang and a smile appeared on her face.
"Ah, Abbot Yao is indeed an extraordinary person. His decisiveness is truly ashamed."
Yao Xiang casually picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
"It doesn't matter. If the person you painstakingly train turns out to be worse than a beast, what's the difference between that and raising a dog? There are some differences, though. A dog might be more loyal than them."
Ran Xinxue did not answer. At this moment, Yao Xiang put down his wine cup.
Then he said.
"I think there are some things that need to be discussed properly, but with so many people around, it's probably not the right time."
Ran Xinxue nodded, then addressed the elders beside her.
"That concludes the dinner tonight. You may all return home now."
Yao Xiang also gave the same instructions to those around him.
It seems these two powerful figures have a pleasant evening for deep conversation, which naturally sparks the imagination.
However, it's not something that others can criticize or judge.
So they all got up.
Wei Tu also led Qin Shuangshuang out of the hall.
The two sides met outside the hall, and naturally, they didn't exchange pleasantries. They went in opposite directions without even exchanging pleasantries, and it's unclear how long they walked.
Lu Qingyan turned around and stood in front of Wei Tu behind her, frowning as she looked at him.
"what happened?"
Wei Tu smiled and shook his head.
"Although I don't know what tricks they're up to, my intuition tells me it's a test."
"A test? To test someone with the lives of two disciples?"
Lu Qingyan clearly couldn't understand this kind of sacrifice. Wei Tu laughed and said, "Haven't you heard that those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles? Perhaps these people particularly admire the saying 'One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand.'"
Lu Qingyan sighed, then looked at Wei Tu, "What do we do now?"
Wei Tu said softly, "I asked Senior Sister to take Su Mi away. Now, Master, you and the elders should take all the disciples to the teleportation array on the mountain. You must, you must leave with them before midnight."
Qin Shuangshuang, who was standing next to them, was stunned and looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.
"Take Su Mi away...take her where? What are you talking about?"
Wei Tu looked at Qin Shuangshuang and said, "You can just follow your Martial Aunt Lin Ruoyin. She will tell you everything. There's no time now, so you should go first."
Qin Shuangshuang was confused and felt a sense of strangeness; how could there be no time left...?
Everything was fine and normal during the day, wasn't it?
Why does it feel like everyone is fleeing when night falls?
But when she looked at Lin Ruoyin, she found that she was waiting for her. So Qin Shuangshuang thought about it and walked over. But when she passed by Wei Tu, she suddenly stopped.
She glanced at the boy.
"you……"
Wei Tu smiled and looked at Qin Shuangshuang.
"Alright, no need for thanks. Just don't take away Su Mi's time from me in the future."
The girl, whose secret thoughts had been exposed, blushed and glared at Wei Tu.
"Who thanked you...!"
"Then what do you want to say?"
"I...I'm warning you, you can't let Su Mi down...or Xuejian Peak won't let you off the hook!"
"Okay, I get it."
"Humph!"
Qin Shuangshuang blushed and ran towards Lin Ruoyin.
Lu Qingyan hadn't left yet; she was just looking at Wei Tu.
"Aren't you leaving?"
Wei Tu nodded.
"Yes, I can't leave yet, that's for sure."
Lu Qingyan bit her lip slightly, understanding what this young man was about to do. He seemed frail, but behind him was a gloomy sky.
It was as if all the responsibility and turmoil had been placed on his shoulders.
The night is like a silent behemoth; all the stillness seems to be waiting only for its roar.
Such tranquility, yet surging undercurrents, increasingly unsettling phenomena, and one worse piece of news and clue after another.
All of this made Lu Qingyan genuinely worried.
She looked at the boy's face, which remained calm and composed to this day.
She bit her thin lips and then sighed.
"Is it that I can't persuade you anymore?"
Wei Tu gently took Lu Qingyan's hand. Lu Qingyan glanced around but did not struggle.
Then she bravely looked at Wei Tu with burning eyes, as if she would agree to anything Wei Tu wanted to do for her.
