What she was most worried about has finally happened; and what terrifying punishnt she must accept next, she truly did not know.
"When you were hunting us down, why didn't you consider letting us go as fellow sect mbers?" Tan Jingwen asked with a sarcastic smile.
As the saying goes, the victor becos king, the defeated villain; on the path you chose, if you don't succeed, who can you bla?
"We didn't hunt you down! Don't falsely accuse good people!"
Feng Feiyan vehently denied, making a final struggle.
"Nonsense, do you really think you can hide your guilty deeds from the heavens?"
"We truly didn't, please, Palace Master, see clearly!"
Feng Feiyan took the lead, kneeling and pleading, with other junior sisters following suit, in unison: "Please, Palace Master, see clearly!"
"Enough! No more excuses, you're not capable, and that's no one's fault but your own."
Xuji True Master had long seen through everything, so Feng Feiyan and her group pretending to be pitiful could not fool her.
"Palace Master, we truly didn't, please believe us!"
Feng Feiyan was anxious and restless; the Palace Master's attitude suggested she did not believe them.
As expected, the next mont, Xuji True Master's face solidified, and she coldly questioned: "Do you really want to force to take action before you stop?"
Seeing the Palace Master's expression, Feng Feiyan and her group felt despair.
This matter would not have any more twists; no matter how much they struggled, it would be in vain.
Since that's the case, they decided to be straightforward and ask: "How does the Palace Master intend to deal with us?"
"Abolish your cultivation and expel you from the sect!"
This was the result Feng Feiyan and her group feared the most; it was tantamount to a death sentence for them.
Unwillingly, they collectively begged for rcy: "Palace Master, please don't! We won't dare anymore in the future, considering our many years of hard work if not achievents, please give us a chance to reform."
"Opportunities are seized by oneself. Since you chose to betray and harm fellow mbers, you should have expected such consequences; so do it yourselves, saving from being heartless."
Xuji True Master had no rcy; today, no matter what, she was going to make an example to deter others, lest the palace disciples no longer respect her authority.
Feng Feiyan and her group were thoroughly in despair; after a brief exchange of glances, they decided to voice their resentnt, even if it ant death: "You're an old tyrant, partial to the little wench, unfit to rule a palace!"
"You can go to hell!"
Xuji True Master was furious beyond comparison, imdiately unleashing a deadly move, eradicating these desperate traitors without a shred of rcy.
The elder of Cinnabar Palace beside her gasped; the Palace Master truly did what she said, so in the future, they should align themselves appropriately.
Witnessing this scene, Qiu Yi swallowed hard.
They had committed the sa sins as the disciples of Cinnabar Palace, and they didn't know if the Valley Master would abolish their cultivation and expel them from the sect like Xuji True Master.
If the punishnts were the sa, they truly didn't know what to do.
Being a kind-hearted person, An Qi felt so sympathy, though that group was truly detestable.
"Alas! Why go to such lengths? If you'd had a better attitude, you wouldn't have lost your lives."
Tan Jingwen, however, felt nothing, because this was what Feng Feiyan and her group brought upon themselves; there was no need for sympathy.
After eradicating this ungrateful group, Xuji True Master led the team back to Cinnabar Palace.
An Qi chose to stay behind because she wanted to visit her parents. She hadn't seen them for over a year and missed them very much; even if Xuji True Master didn't permit it, she would stay regardless.
Xuji True Master, of course, was not a person devoid of humanity; after a monotonous year, An Qi was exhausted, so her request for a break wasn't unreasonable, and she not only wouldn't oppose it but would also secretly assign people to protect An Qi.
After the people of Cinnabar Palace departed, only the disciples of dicinal Saint Valley were left at the scene.
At this mont, Qiu Yi and the others were sweating profusely, their bodies trembling, and they were filled with anxiety.
Seeing this situation, Lin Yifan chuckled: "Heh! Brother Qiu, is the weather very hot? Why are you sweating so much?"
This gang had such a great ti hunting them in the Secret Realm; now it was ti for them to taste the consequences.
"The weather is indeed very hot today, so hot that it's hard to breathe." Qiu Yi replied earnestly.
"Is that so? Would you like to stab you in the back?"
Lin Yifan changed his tone, mocking.
"Junior Brother, why do your words sound so unpleasant? Why would you want to stab in the back?" Qiu Yi asked in confusion, looking very innocent.
"What do you think?"
"I don't know!"
"Keep pretending, let's see how long you can keep it up."
"I'm not pretending, I'm telling the truth."
"Stubborn even on the brink of death? Do you want to personally explain your cris?"
"No, we'll confess ourselves."
This answer took Lin Yifan slightly by surprise; he didn't know what trick Qiu Yi wanted to play.
However, since they were here, he would let them speak; he didn't believe Qiu Yi and the others could turn the tables, so he said: "Then please speak!"
With a thud, Qiu Yi knelt on the ground, imploring pitifully: "Great Elder, Valley Master, you must seek justice for those deceased brothers! Lin Yifan, this bastard, violated the sect's rules, harming fellow mbers without reason, deserving death!"
Other junior brothers followed suit, kneeling and pleading with the Great Elder and the Valley Master to severely punish Lin Yifan.
This situation was nearly identical to that of the Cinnabar Palace disciples just now. Except one was pleading for trust, and the other was a villain filing a complaint first.
"Wow, wow, wow! A villain indeed filing the first complaint, I really underestimated you!"
Lin Yifan finally understood why Qiu Yi agreed to confess so readily; this was the trick they wanted to play.
However, they still hadn't understood the current situation. In the eyes of the dicine Saint, his value was undoubtedly higher than theirs; so the scales of victory would always tilt towards his side, even though their cris were the sa.
"So, do you dare admit to killing them?" Qiu Yi questioned angrily.
"I do! Why wouldn't I dare? They spoke obscenities, excluded, defad, and insulted fellow mbers, deserving punishnt."
"But isn't death too severe a punishnt?"
"In my eyes, they deserved to die!"
"Look, Great Elder, Valley Master, see how arrogant he is? He simply doesn't put you in his eyes!"
The dicine Saint and Gao Ziyun furrowed their brows; Lin Yifan's behavior was indeed too arrogant, making them very displeased.
However, the dicine Saint would still protect Lin Yifan because he was a "ritorious contributor," having obtained many peerless treasures.
"Tell , what mistakes have you committed?"
The dicine Saint disregarded Qiu Yi and others' complaints and instead asked about their cris.
"We did nothing wrong, it's him who rebelled against us!" Qiu Yi and the others vehently denied and shifted the bla onto Lin Yifan.
