The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

After reinforcing the cave barrier of Wan Gu Cave, You Mu flew away.

The golden light in the sky disappeared beyond the clouds. Although it was only temporary, the Heavenly Dao, which had been holding back for a long time, finally seized the opportunity to speak.

[Hey, are you just going to throw him in there? There are poisonous insects all over the place!]

[Don't worry, you won't die]

[…But you are] too careless!

Tiandao pursed his lips, and seeing that the law seemed to be returning, he said nothing more.

You Mu ignored Tiandao's nagging and went up from the junction area to the territory of Taihua Sect.

He remembered that after the sect competition, several demon spies from the Northern Territory infiltrated the outskirts of Taihua Sect from Xuanxu Sect. It was these demons who killed the only son of the Xuanxu Sect elder.

Yu Zhao calculated the timing perfectly and deliberately designed a conflict between the dead monk and Yu Huai. He also used high-level talismans to create the illusion that Yu Huai was carrying evil spirits and framed Yu Huai for the crime.

The real murderer is still lurking in the outskirts of Taihua Sect and has not been discovered by the sect master and elders.

Yu Zhao wants to take the lead role in place of Yu Huai, so he naturally won't let these demons infiltrate at will. He's just waiting for an opportunity. When these spies bring a disaster to the sect, he will step in and kill them in time to turn the tide, so as to gain praise from the sect.

In Taihua Sect, Venerable Hongyun still hasn't gotten over the extinguishing of Yu Huaihun's lamp.

"Junior brother, since Yu Huai... then the Xuanxu Sect should also give an explanation to Elder Yang."

The sect leader looked at Venerable Hongyun standing in front of the soul lamp without saying a word for a long time, and sighed secretly.

No one had expected such things to happen one after another.

In fact, privately, he also didn't believe that Yu Huai would collude with the demons, but things happened too quickly. When they arrived, the person had already fled for fear of the crime. Now Yu Huai's soul lamp has been extinguished, and this person... is most likely dead.

After all, Xuanxu Sect has issued a killing order. If Yu Huai, a Jindan-level cultivator, encounters those elders of Xuanxu Sect, it will be difficult for him to resist.

What a pity for such a rare talent...

The sect leader shook his head, and seeing that Venerable Hongyun remained silent, he turned and left Changming Hall.

Outside the Changming Palace, Yu Zhaojing was waiting on the side. When he saw the sect leader come out, he immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.

"Master Master"

Yu Zhao bowed his head and saluted, blocking the sect leader's way.

The sect leader was thinking about the affairs of the Xuanxu Sect when he was interrupted by Yu Zhao's voice. He paused and glanced sideways at the disciple.

"It's you, here to see Hongyun?"

"…Disciple came here to look for Senior Brother Yu. Things happened so quickly that Disciple didn't expect that the last time we saw each other would be the last time."

Yu Zhao spoke sincerely and mentioned the last time, which reminded the sect leader of the incident when he claimed to have been beaten by the fallen demon Yu Huai.

"Is your injury from last time...healed? Your neck..."

After all, he was the only talented disciple left in the sect, so the sect leader paid more attention to Yu Zhao.

Originally, Taihua Sect had two promising disciples, Yu Huai and Yu Zhao, which made the Sect Master even more optimistic about the future of Taihua Sect. But suddenly, one of them was gone. As the only one left, the Sect Master naturally had to pay more attention to him.

"It's healed now. This..." Yu Zhao was very respectful, with a look of gratitude on his face. He reached out and touched the scar on his neck. He continued, "This is caused by a chance encounter with a demon cultivator on the way down the mountain. It's not a big deal. Thank you for your concern, Sect Master."

The sect leader saw that there was indeed some demonic energy on the scar. After considering for a moment, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it over.

"Here is a third-grade medicine for injuries, take it."

"Thank you, Sect Master!" Yu Zhao immediately took it with both hands. Seeing the Sect Master's slightly frowned brow, he asked about matters within the sect.

"Master, Brother Yu Huai is still... Xuanxu Sect is still not giving in. The competition has ended, but the disciples of Xuanxu Sect are still unwilling to leave and insist on asking for an explanation... This..."

"You don't need to ask about this matter, just go ahead."

The leader of the clan already had a plan in mind, but he left without telling Yu Zhao.

"……Yes"

Yu Zhao lowered his head, and the respectful look on his face slowly disappeared after the sect master's aura completely disappeared in Changming Hall, and was replaced by a rather gloomy expression.

When Yu Huai was here, apart from the person in charge of the administration hall, the sect master and the master would also specifically let Mo Qing and Yu Huai lead the disciples to handle all the sect affairs, just like they were training their successors.

But when it comes to him, why is it that there is no need to ask? !

In terms of strength, how is Yu Zhao inferior to Yu Huai?

It is clear that Yu Huai's life or death is unknown and he has completely disappeared from Taihua Sect. How can it be so unfair!

The sect leader had no idea what Yu Zhao was thinking.

After leaving the main peak, the sect leader summoned his eldest disciple Mo Qing and ordered him to take out the items on the receipt from the warehouse and then go to Cangyun Peak with him.

The Taihua Sect has many territories and peaks. During the sect competition, Cangyun Peak is the place to accommodate other sects.

Now the competition has ended long ago, only the Xuanxu Sect still remains in the guest room of Cangyun Peak and refuses to leave in order to seek an explanation.

Originally, Taihua Sect had been suppressing the punishment of Yu Huai on the grounds of insufficient evidence and refused to admit guilt. They only said that they would find Yu Huai and make a final judgment after the right and wrong were clearly determined.

But Elder Yang of Xuanxu Sect refused to give in and, regardless of the harmony between the two sects, directly issued a bounty order for the killing.

They were concerned about Elder Yang's grief over the loss of his son, and since Taihua Sect did not have any favorable evidence to prove Yu Huai's innocence, they endured it.

But now, Yu Huai is dead, and died outside the sect. Although they don't know the inside story, this matter must come to an end.

Their Taihua Sect is such a large sect that has never been coerced by anyone. Even if there is no reason, they should still argue for the sake of their face.

While thinking, the sect leader led several elders and a group of disciples to the Fuyun Courtyard of Cangyun Peak.

When Mo Qing opened the gate for his master and several elders, he heard the arrogant words of the Xuanxu Sect disciples in the courtyard.

"Taihua Sect, you are really going too far. My Senior Brother Yang died in your sect for no reason, and you still want to deny it? Is it possible that human life is not worth mentioning in the eyes of everyone in your Taihua Sect?"

"That means that the damned Yu Huai is dead. If not, you, the Taihua Sect, should pay with your life! You should drag that Yu Huai out, dig out his bones and whip his corpse, only then can we relieve the hatred in our sect's heart!"

Mo Qing took a step forward and met the resentful eyes of the Xuanxu Sect disciples, his tone firm and steady.

"The Xuanxu Sect should also act based on evidence to determine right and wrong. If you really have evidence of Junior Brother Yu's guilt, you should announce it to the world instead of staying in my Taihua Sect's territory and refusing to leave. Such outrageous remarks are really not like the style of a righteous sect."
