As he looked at Tao Yi's flesh and blood exploding before him.
Lin Yu's pretty face instantly lost all color!
Wang Ba, however, could not help recalling what Ye Lingyu had once said: the Question Evil Sword could sense many things.
In that instant, he suddenly understood a great deal.
Why Ye Lingyu, despite her exceptional talent and Elder Qin making an exception to take her as his disciple, always seemed to be foolishly dragged around through the air by the Question Evil Sword.
Why the Question Evil Sword had pointed at him that day, yet shown no reaction to him afterward.
The reason was simple.
Through Ye Lingyu, Elder Qin had long since used the Question Evil Sword to investigate everyone in the sect.
And that day, the Question Evil Sword had not actually been pointing at him, but at Tao Yi, who had been hiding behind him with sinister intentions.
So when he walked alone with Ye Lingyu, the Question Evil Sword detected nothing unusual and naturally did not attack Wang Ba.
All he could say was that the sect had long been aware of the Heavenly Gate Sect's schemes, yet for some unknown reason had never exposed them and had even stood by as they grew.
Perhaps they thought the other side would not dare, or perhaps there was some other reason.
What puzzled Wang Ba was that when Tao Yi had failed to overcome Lin Yu after repeated attacks, he had seemed to want Wang Ba's help. And just before the Question Evil Sword killed him, the look he had given Wang Ba had been strange too, almost like... bewilderment?
That's right! Bewilderment! It felt as though... why had the Question Evil Sword killed him, but not me... why would he think that?
Countless thoughts flashed
