Chapter 77: Sect Mission

  Ling Yuwei's face turned bright red with anger, Xing Yuebo's shamelessness exceeded her imagination, not only reversing black and white, but also fabricating such a false story to whitewash himself, and at the same time framing them.

  She gritted her silver teeth, if it weren't for being in the Law Enforcement Temple, she would definitely fight him to the death.

  Xing Yuebo finished speaking, and a hint of complacency flashed in his eyes. He believed that the story he had fabricated could withstand scrutiny and would not reveal any flaws.

  Zhang Shan first used his eyes to signal to Ling Yuwei to calm down and not do anything stupid in a fit of impulse, then began to recount the events again.

  At this time, he had already made the worst plan in his heart. If the law enforcement hall didn't find any strong evidence in these days, Xing Yuebo might be able to escape punishment.

  After he finished speaking, Yu Pu Cheng said: "It's no different from what was said before. Then, can you both think of any evidence that can prove the other is lying?"

  "After seeing the three of them shake their heads in silence, he spoke again: 'According to our investigation at the law enforcement hall over the past ten days, I regret to inform everyone that we cannot find any strong evidence or clues, and therefore it is impossible to distinguish who is lying.'"

  He said with a flicker of his eyes and a gloomy tone, "It's not that the people from the law enforcement hall didn't investigate carefully, but someone had destroyed the scene beforehand, making it impossible for those who were sent to investigate to find any clues."

  The various elder peaks present all showed a shocked expression, everyone was experienced and understood what was going on after a moment's thought, so their expressions were complex and difficult to discern.

  "Everyone must have thought of it too. The three parties involved never left the sect after returning, so it's naturally impossible to do such a thing. Then, there is only one possibility..."

  Yu Pu Cheng didn't look at the expressions of the various peak elders, and instead said on his own: "That is to say, someone received the news and immediately went to clean up the scene. And the person who knew about this first and would go do it, is naturally one of you present here."

  In the grand hall, a pin could be heard dropping for a moment. It was not uncommon for disciples to kill each other out of hatred or interest, and the sect would naturally punish them severely. But this time, an elder was involved, making the nature of the incident extremely serious.

  Yu Pu Cheng's voice continued to echo in the hall: "Some people no longer take the sect's precepts seriously, or they don't take me, the Law Enforcement Hall, seriously. If that's the case, then I, Yu Mou, will also have to exercise my muscles."

  Nan Ruo suddenly chuckled: "Is Master Yu going to investigate this matter personally? If so, the truth will soon be revealed. The sect has been getting more and more chaotic lately, it's indeed time for you, Master, to take charge."

  Pu Cheng hummed and said: "Don't be too happy, Nan Shimei. You also have suspicions. The two disciples of Qingmu Peak may also be the murderers."

  "I don't do anything shameful, so I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door. I'm not afraid at all." Nan Ruo's smile didn't diminish.

  "So, how did the three of them deal with it before things were cleared up?"

  The voice came from Yue Zhenhai, who was sitting at the lower head, expressionless.

  "Let them roll back to their respective peaks, once things are clear, I will send someone to arrest them." Yu Pu Cheng didn't even lift an eyebrow.

  Yue Zhenhai took his leave, hoping that the truth would be revealed soon. He no longer wanted to stay here and left the main hall after throwing out a sentence.

  "Since that's the case, then Hong will take his disciple back too. Please trouble Shifu to return Xiao Tong's Sumi abacus." Hong Xingtao also stood up at this time and said to Yu Pu Cheng.

  Yu Pu Cheng opened the jade box beside him and took out the three people's Su Mei rings, throwing them back to them.

  Hong Xingtao nodded in gratitude and led Xing Yuebo out of the palace.

  As she walked past Zhang Shan, a hint of mocking smile appeared in Xing Yuebo's eyes.

  Zhang Shan clenched his fists and then relaxed them, secretly making up his mind that if the law enforcement hall couldn't find any real evidence and let Xing's surname go unpunished, he would find an opportunity to take care of him privately.

  Afterwards, Zhang Shan and Ling Kaiwei also followed their respective masters out of the Law Enforcement Hall.

  Lü Chongxu released his flying magic tool, but it was a two-zhang-square jade palanquin, and on the palanquin there was also a tea table.

  Nan Ruoxi walked up with a smile and sat down beside the tea table: "Brother Lü indeed knows how to enjoy himself, poor me, I don't even have a substitute for a transportation artifact."

  Lv Chong shook his head and smiled: "Junior Sister Nan, if you weren't trying to create some new elixir and squander all your family's wealth, wouldn't it be easy for you to get as many of these artifacts as you want?"

  Zhang Shan and Ling Yuwei also followed Jade Sled, Lv Chongxu lightly tapped the tea table, Jade Sled quickly rose up and flew towards Qingmu Peak.

  "This time, thanks to Zhang Shan's nephew, otherwise, Xiao Wei would have fallen into the hands of Xing Yuebo, that wolf-hearted and dog-lunged thing." Lü Chongxu said with a appreciative glance at Zhang Shan.

  "Master is overpraising me, I'm ashamed and dare not accept it." Zhang Shan replied respectfully.

  Lv Chongxu smiled and said, "You don't have to be so formal, Qingmu Peak's rules are relaxed, there aren't that many restrictions. Ah, Nan Shimei, you've really found a treasure, your wisdom, strategy, and temperament are all top-notch, your strength is crushing compared to others of the same rank, and you're far stronger than my own disciple."

  Ling Yu's face showed a hint of shame as she said in a low voice, "It was my fault for not recognizing the person clearly, and I almost got Zhang Shidi involved with the scoundrel."

  "Nan Ruo Li smiled and said, 'Brother, don't be too hard on her. Xing Yue Bo has always had a good reputation within the sect, who knew he was this kind of person with a heart of a beast? It's not surprising that Xiao Wei was deceived by him.'"

  Lü Chong sighed and said, "It's also my fault for being too indulgent towards her. I've never let her experience the dangers of the world, so she lacks adaptability in unexpected situations and is unaware of the cruelty of human hearts."

  After a moment of contemplation, he spoke again: "I wonder if this time's mission to hunt down the demon thief will allow Zhang Shidi to participate, Sister?"

  "I was thinking of letting him go, but after returning to the peak, I need to check if he has any internal injuries before making a decision. What's this? Brother wants Xiao Wei to go? This task is not without danger." Nan Ruoli thought aloud.

  "I've thought about it, and I think it's time for her to go out and gain some experience. She won't be able to grow without going through hardships, but still, it would be better if she teamed up with some reliable disciples. If Zhang Shidi is going, I hope Xiangwei can team up with him." Lü Chongxu expressed his thoughts.

  Ling Yuwei couldn't help but ask: "Master, what task has the sect issued?"

  "The Tian Nan Holy Dynasty's vassal state, Hong Yang Nation, has recently suffered a devastating attack by a powerful band of demon thieves, resulting in heavy casualties. The Lord of Hong Yang Nation has sent out a distress signal to the sect."

  When she asked, Lü Chongyu told the news: "The reason is that under the Wumeng Mountains in Hongyang Country, where Xuan Tie ore is abundant, several Ling Shi ore veins have been newly discovered, which has attracted the attention of the demon thieves on the Luori Desert."

  "If the demon thieves occupy it, it will affect the offerings we receive from our sect, so the sect is very concerned and has decided to send disciples to eliminate the demon thieves."
