Those words made Yun Huanling pause.
When the wisp of black mist mentioned the Heavenly Secret Sect, its tone carried unmistakable familiarity.
"What does my being a disciple of the Heavenly Secret Sect have to do with you, Demonic Heretical Path?"
Something seemed to occur to the wisp of black mist. After a moment of stiffness, he suddenly burst out laughing.
"I'm the Demonic Heretical Path? Yes, I'm the Demonic Heretical Path, but do you think your Heavenly Secret Sect is anything decent...?"
The cloud of black mist paused here. "Don't tell me you want to offer me up as a sacrifice to heaven just because the person you like is standing beside you, hoping to win her favor.
"But then, that makes sense. I've been exposed here anyway, and I'm not the only puppet you control. Sacrificing me alone really doesn't amount to much." The cloud of black mist spoke with biting sarcasm.
Su Jiu could sense that what the black mist said did not sound like a lie.
Yun Huanling was both embarrassed and furious. "What nonsense are you spouting? Stop splashing your filthy accusations all over us. Today, I'll carry out heaven's justice and eliminate you, so you can't keep harming disciples of reputable sects!"
With that, the Compass in Yun Huanling's hand began spinning rapidly.
But just as the Compass was about to strike the mirror, a Talisman blocked his attack in its entirety.
He looked at Su Jiu in disbelief, a flicker of hurt crossing his eyes.
"A Jiu, do even you believe his wild nonsense?"
Su Jiu replied with perfect composure, "Yun Huanling, you're far too agitated right now."
Naturally, Su Jiu would not believe everything he said, but she also knew that the cloud of black mist was not speaking nothing but lies.
