The Peak Master Yue belatedly realized that he seemed to have some psychological trauma towards this young disciple of Ethereal Peak!
How is that possible?
He is the dignified Moonlight Peak Master—
" Peak Master Yue," Mu Liuyun stepped forward, "Where are you in such a hurry to go?"
Yue Su said, " Liuqin is bedridden, and as her father, I am naturally anxious to go back and take care of her."
The entire sect knows how Yue Liuqin became "sick": she cheated during the secret realm trial, provoked a fourth-tier Demon Beast in its breeding season, and failed to crush her life-saving wooden token in time when faced with danger. This disciple can be said to have done everything she shouldn't have done in the secret realm, and in the end, she can only blame herself for her fate.
Mu Liuyun scrutinized him, her gaze gradually sharpening. " Peak Master Yue, why do you possess the aura of the Flowing Cloud Spring Source?"
Everyone was shocked.
The Flowing Cloud Spring Source —isn't that the core of the mountain-protecting formation?!
This is a forbidden area within the sect's forbidden area; how could Peak Master Yue have secretly gone to the spring?
How did he get in?
The timing is so coincidental, and the mountain-protecting formation has been destroyed again. Could it be that Peak Master Yue is that...?
Yue Su's heart skipped a beat.
How could Mu Liuyun's senses be so sharp? He could tell at a glance that he had been to the spring!
Yue Su knew something was wrong and turned to flee, but before he could even turn into smoke, Mu Liuyun, Elder Yao, and the others attacked simultaneously, binding the mist with seven or eight chains of Spiritual Qi. Peak Master Yue was tied up like a pig, and when he returned to his original form, he lay on the ground, his face flushed red, but he couldn't break free of the restraints no matter what he did.
"Let me go! Mu Liuyun-- "
He glared at Mu Liuyun, but when he saw her beautiful eyes staring coldly at him, he suddenly realized he had been deceived!
He was careful and cautious, so he didn't leave any trace of the spiritual spring. She was just bluffing him!
Just because of Qiaoqiao--
Because of a single sentence from that young disciple, she began to doubt herself and tested him with words, and he actually fell for it!
Yue Su was so angry he felt like vomiting blood after realizing everything, but it was too late; he had already been exposed!
"Colluding with the Demonic Sect and sabotaging the mountain-protecting formation, Yue Su, how dare you!" Mu Liuyun's tone was filled with rage. "The dignified Moonlight Peak Master has actually become a traitor to the Flowing Cloud Sect!"
" Moonlight Peak Master? Hahaha!" Yue Su's eyes were bloodshot. "What a joke! I, a dignified Peak Master, have become the biggest joke of the Flowing Cloud Immortal Sect! My reputation, my daughter with the Heaven Spirit Root, have all been ruined! All ruined by those beasts from Ethereal Peak!"
"If you ruin me, I won't let you get away with it!"
" Ethereal Peak! Flowing Cloud Sect! Die, all of you!!"
He was emotionally agitated, his eyes were bloodshot, and Devil Qi emanated from his body, showing signs of Qi Deviation.
Mu Liuyun frowned. He hadn't expected that Yue Su would have his Dao heart destroyed and become insane because of this matter. He was probably used by the Demonic Sect to destroy the mountain-protecting formation.
However, it would be difficult for him to accomplish this alone...
"Who helped you break through the forbidden area's barrier and allow you to enter the Flowing Cloud Spring Source?"
"You want to know? Dream on!" Yue Su burst into maniacal laughter. "I will never tell you, Mu Liuyun. The Flowing Cloud Sect is rotten to the core and will be destroyed by the Demonic Sect sooner or later! You can't possibly—"
Before he could finish speaking, a jade-like, pale hand reached out from the side, its slender fingertips lightly touching him. The Moonlight Peak Master let out a scream more agonizing than a pig being slaughtered, "Aaaaaah!!"
It's a soul search!
The pain of having one's soul searched is worse than being slowly sliced to death.
Moreover, after being subjected to soul-searching, this person is ruined. Their sea of consciousness is destroyed, their soul is damaged, and they become mentally impaired with no chance of recovery.
Everyone stared in awe at the Immortal Venerable Wanghan who had made his move, and for a moment no one spoke.
Peak Master Yue's betrayal of the sect was a capital offense, but the Immortal Venerable's decisive action—starting with a soul search—still startled everyone.
Although Immortal Venerable Wanghan has always been cold-hearted, everyone felt that he seemed somewhat different after emerging from seclusion this time...
A moment later.
Bai Fu withdrew his hand and coldly uttered a few names.
These were the elders Qiaoqiao had seen watching the battle from the corner earlier. These people were not the most powerful in the Flowing Cloud Sect and usually did not show off. However, they were senior and experienced, belonging to the group of old guys in the sect who were retired and inactive. Who would have thought that they would actually collude with the Demonic Sect!
Several people were called by name and fled in panic. Elder Yao quickly led her people in pursuit.
After the soul search, the dazed and confused Moonlight Peak Master was taken away, and the few elders who had escaped were quickly captured as well.
Now no one blamed Qiaoqiao for bringing the Devil Master here. If she hadn't provoked the Devil Master, these traitors from the Demon Sect would have remained hidden in the Flowing Cloud Sect for who knows how long, causing countless harms to the sect, and even brewing a dangerous crisis that could destroy the sect.
The Demonic Sect's arrival was clearly unprepared, allowing them to be repelled. Immortal Venerable Wanghan injured the Devil Master, meaning the Demonic Sect will not take any further action for a while, which buys them time to deal with the traitor within the Flowing Cloud Sect, rebuild the mountain-protecting formation, and strengthen their defenses against the Demonic Sect.
In this light, it seems that Qiaoqiao didn't cause trouble, but rather did a great favor, and those who had previously blamed her felt somewhat ashamed.
Qiaoqiao, on the other hand, felt regretful, realizing that she would ultimately never know the taste of the witch's Devil Heart.
No one expected that such a series of unexpected events would occur at the Flowing Cloud Sect Master's birthday banquet.
After Mu Liuyun announced a series of decisions, including recognizing Fu Fengyuan as the young sect leader and removing Elder Chang from his position as the main peak's Grand Elder, everyone dispersed.
It is foreseeable that significant changes will occur within the sect, and these changes will be for the better. The Flowing Cloud Sect, which has fallen to the bottom of the four great immortal sects, may be able to seize this opportunity to eliminate its ills and rise again.
As the crowd dispersed, Fu Fengyuan clutched his chest and coughed lightly twice.
Mu Liuyun asked, "Are you injured?"
Fu Fengyuan low voice, "I was kicked earlier--"
