This is what villains are like

Ling Zhuyun fell silent.

She had discovered that no matter how she explained it, there would be a fatal flaw.

In the beginning, the reason why she favored Ye Ming and covered him up was because she was worried that his identity as the assassin who assassinated Jiang Lan would be exposed.

Ye Ming assassinated Jiang Lan at that time, but as an associate of Lin Fan, the assassin in Yuyi City, wasn't that assassin a remnant of the Blood Immortal Sect?

In other words, from the very beginning when she concealed her identity for Ye Ming, she was destined to be involved later, and she could not explain it clearly, and was considered to be helping him conceal his identity as a member of the Blood Immortal Sect.

At this time, the only way was to tell the reason for favoring Ye Ming at that time, but in this way, she was telling everyone that she lied in public at the tea making party and deceived everyone.

Where to put the reputation of Yaochi Sect? As a saint, even if she explains all this clearly, her prestige will be ruined from now on.

Furthermore, until this moment, she actually still doesn't want to believe that Ye Ming will be involved with the Blood Immortal Sect and deceive and use her.

But she seemed to have entered a dead end without even realizing it.

"Ling Zhuyun, what else do you have to say?"

Qi Heng asked again, vaguely intending to ask everyone behind him to work together to capture Ling Zhuyun.

"..."

Ling Zhuyun was silent, her brows slightly furrowed, her arrogance and fierceness completely gone.

"Qi Heng, are you really sure that Ye Ling is a member of the Blood Immortal Sect?"

After a long time, she asked.

"Haha, what we witnessed with our own eyes can be false? All previous signs indicate that there are many doubts about that guy. At this time, Ling Zhuyun, do you still want to continue to be partial and cover up for him?"

"It's in vain that those junior sisters trusted you so much, but you colluded with outsiders to bring them here and trap them here."

Qi Heng snorted coldly, not surprised at all by Ling Zhuyun's current reaction.

"Have you seen with your own eyes that all my junior sisters died in the Blood Immortal Cult's formation?"

Ling Zhuyun was stunned, and asked after a moment. Her face under the veil, her eyes looked a little gloomy.

Along the way, she tried to contact the disciples of the Yaochi Sect, but did not receive any response.

At present, even the younger generation of the Dao Ancient Sect, Biyou Dongtian and other forces have suffered losses.

Without her protection, the disciples of the Yaochi Sect would probably be in bad luck.

"Are you really not aware, or are you pretending not to know? I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but one thing is true. No one has seen the disciples of the Yaochi Sect, and they are probably all dead outside the secret realm."

"Even I barely survived half of my life. Do you think that your junior sisters can survive when they encounter people from the Blood Immortal Cult?"

Qi Heng looked at Ling Zhuyun's expression at this moment and was a little stunned.

However, this woman should not be gullible, in case she shows such an expression on purpose to confuse everyone.

Ling Zhuyun fell silent.

Did Junior Sister and the others really die at the hands of the Blood Immortal Sect? Because she left carelessly and failed to protect them...

She originally wanted to find the missing junior sisters, but in the end, she couldn't protect anyone.

Ling Zhuyun fell into confusion for a moment.

She looked at Jiang Lan subconsciously, biting the corners of her lips with her teeth under the veil.

Jiang Lan noticed her gaze and was immediately interested.

Shouldn't you bite the bullet and eat the bitter fruit you sow?

Of course, he knew it.

In Ling Zhuyun's smooth life, she had never encountered such a scene before. Let alone being framed and suspected, even being questioned was something that had never happened before.

However, Jiang Lan still didn't plan to come forward. After all, training...no, it was training. How could this level be enough?

So he just responded to Ling Zhuyun with a warm and gentle smile to reassure her that he had always believed that she could not collude with the Blood Immortal Sect.

Anyway, at this time, if she insists that she doesn't know that Ye Ming is a member of the Blood Immortal Cult and cuts off all relations with him, won't the problem be solved?

Jiang Lan also counted on the great luck that would be brought to him after the relationship between the two broke up.

Ling Zhuyun was stunned for a moment, and then quickly understood the meaning of his gaze. Was he unable to help himself and letting himself seek happiness for himself?

Indeed, what can he do to help himself at this time?

Even I can't explain it clearly. Regardless of explanation or not, the Yaochi Sect will be shamed by what she did.

Explain that she was deceived by Ye Ming and didn't know that he was from the Blood Immortal Sect? But such words were really difficult for her to say, and they were contrary to her true intentions. After all, without seeing it with his own eyes, he concluded that Ye Ming was a member of the Blood Immortal Sect. What is the difference between this and falsely accusing him?

Seeing Ling Zhuyun remain silent like this, Jiang Lan clicked her tongue inwardly, but also felt a slight headache.

If it were Su Qinghan who encountered this kind of situation, he would have completely distanced himself from the other party and stayed alone.

But this guy with a single brain is able to lie for others and himself even if he doesn't know how to adapt. If he can't solve the problem, it will be over, and he will have to choose to remain silent and wait for death.

In Jiang Lan's view, this is a small matter, no matter how small. Why should there be such a helpless feeling?

Sometimes adhering to principles too much is not necessarily a good thing.

Still lack of adjustment... tempering.

"Saint Zhuyun has been walking around the world for many years, punishing evil and promoting good, and benefiting the people. You must have made up your mind what kind of person she is."

"Qi Heng, you made such a small inference and made a blunt statement that she colluded with the Blood Fairy Cult people, and put such a big label on her head. You know exactly what your intentions are."

"Outside the secret realm, my men and I got separated and were attacked by people from the Blood Immortal Sect. Saint Zhu Yun also rescued her in time. I don't know if the person named Ye is a member of the Blood Immortal Sect, but I know that she is not may be."

"If you dare to take action against Saint Zhuyun, then try to see if you can walk out of this hall today. The Blood Immortal Sect can't take you in, so I will take care of you."

"If the rest of the people dare to take action, they can try it and see if they can get out alive..."

Jiang Lan suddenly spoke, with a casual but strong tone, and then gave a signal with his eyes.

Behind him, Li Daoyi, Luo Ying, Ao Xu and many other young geniuses, as well as a group of knights, stepped forward and surrounded Qi Heng and others.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the rest of the people in the hall suddenly changed.

Some people who believed Qi Heng's words were very angry and felt that Jiang Lan was so arrogant and powerful, which was simply disgusting to the extreme.

But there are also many people who think Jiang Lan's words are good and think Ling Zhuyun can't do such a thing.

There may be some unspeakable hidden meaning in this.

"Jiang Lan, you..."

Qi Heng's face was also extremely ugly, and his voice was trembling with anger.

He had kindly reminded Jiang Lan just now, but it turned out that this guy was indeed the famous useless second generation ancestor. Under such circumstances, he still wanted to protect Ling Zhuyun.

However, he was really afraid of the power around Jiang Lan and did not dare to act rashly.
