Soul Searching and a Provocation at the Door
"Sect Leader Li, may I ask you a favor?" Wan Xing looked up at Li Yunjing, his gaze sincere.
Li Yunjing was taken aback.
This guy has a good character.
Even at this point, he didn't seem afraid of dying at all.
Li Yunjing nodded slightly.
Wan Xing said, "After I die, cut off my head and preserve it carefully."
"Once you've destroyed the Clear Wind Sect, I'll open my eyes and see the grandeur of that time."
Li Yunjing's pupils dilated slightly after hearing this.
Is this guy crazy?
Such a bizarre request gave Li Yunjing goosebumps all over his body.
"Why?" Li Yunjing asked in a low voice.
Wan Xing gave a bitter smile:
"I just want to see if, on the day the Clear Wind Sect, whose roots are already rotten, its Clear Wind Sect demise!"
Li Yunjing stared at Wan Xing, remaining silent for a long time.
Finally turning his gaze away, Li Yunjing asked curiously:
"Judging from your words, you are dissatisfied with the current state of the Clear Wind Sect. If so, why are you unwilling to testify?"
"Isn't it satisfying to personally destroy the Clear Wind Sect, which you've been dissatisfied with?"
Wan Xing suppressed his smile and said calmly:
"I am a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect. No matter how bad the Clear Wind Sect is, it cannot be ruined in my hands."
"Blind loyalty."
Two words came to Li Yunjing's mind.
Well, since Wan Xing is unwilling to cooperate with Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing didn't have much to say.
Summon disciples from the Immortal Alliance and have several of them subject Wan Xing to the Immortal Alliance's cruel tortures.
Wan Xing is quite a tough guy.
The Immortal Alliance's Eighteen Cruel Tortures
Starting with the first one, up to the eighth one,
Wan Xing didn't utter a single sound from beginning to end.
If his body hadn't given out before the ninth torture was administered, he would have succumbed to his injuries and died.
Even if the ninth torture is inflicted, he will not beg for mercy or shout.
This made Li Yunjing feel a little admiration.
It's a pity that Wan Xing is a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect; it would have been so much better if he were in my own Luozhen Sect.
Finally, the disciples of the Immortal Alliance extracted Wan Xing's divine soul.
Using the method of soul searching, some memories in Wan Xing's mind were fully revealed.
Actually, Wan Xing took the initiative to speak.
The Immortal Alliance will not use the soul-searching technique.
Unfortunately Wan Xing insisted on sticking to his guns.
Li Yunjing took a Jade Slip.
The Jade Slip contained Wan Xing's memories.
Li Yunjing read it from beginning to end.
I also learned some things.
For example, the situation at the Clear Wind Pavilion, and matters related to Zhong Lan.
And what Li Yunjing was most concerned about was the matter concerning the Golden Core cave abode.
Judging from Wan Xing's memories,
Clear Wind Sect was unable to subdue that Golden Core cave abode.
Although the current leader of the Clear Wind Sect is headstrong and insists on his own way...
They risked the lives of Rogue Cultivator to try and break that formation.
But the final result was not satisfactory.
That protective formation was actually a nested formation.
There are three layers in total, each more complex than the last.
The first layer has been cracked, but there are two more layers to go.
Even now, Clear Wind Sect is still trying to break through the second layer of the formation.
According to the latest news, Clear Wind Sect has gained nothing.
As for the Clear Wind Sect disciples who were chasing Mo Xuan and Shui Yao,
Li Yunjing also found clues in Wan Xing's memories.
Li Yunjing silently made a note of it, and would do so later when the opportunity arose.
These people will definitely experience the cruel tortures of the Immortal Alliance Prison.
Besides these things,
Wan Xing also has many memories of the dirty things Clear Wind Sect did.
After reading it, Li Yunjing felt utterly disgusted.
"Qingfeng, Qingfeng, what a waste of that name." Li Yunjing shook his head.
Originally, Clear Wind Sect was also a sect with ideals and aspirations.
Unfortunately, as time went by, greed got the better of them, and problems arose within the upper echelons of the Clear Wind Sect.
If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too.
As a result, the entire Clear Wind Sect changed its nature.
Only a very small number of disciples still retain the original aspirations of the Clear Wind Sect.
The vast majority either pursue fame and fortune, or, like Wan Xing, drift with the tide.
While feeling moved, this incident also made Li Yunjing wary.
The current Luozhen Sect is just like the Clear Wind Sect at the beginning, full of vigor and vitality.
However, as time went on, the number of disciples in the Luozhen Sect increased.
Li Yunjing also couldn't guarantee that various problems wouldn't arise.
"Perhaps, some related special buildings should also be constructed soon," Li Yunjing muttered to himself.
Li Yunjing needs to carefully plan this matter.
The Jade Slip slip was returned to the Immortal Alliance disciple.
The Immortal Alliance disciple left with the Jade Slip.
This Jade Slip will be carefully preserved by the Immortal Alliance.
It cannot be shown to the public at this time.
After all, this was obtained through the method of soul searching.
The matter of soul searching is extremely sensitive in the cultivation Immortal Realm.
Although the Immortal Alliance dared to search the souls of criminals imprisoned in jail,
But they dared not expose this matter.
Otherwise, it would cause a huge uproar, and the forces of the world would surge towards the Immortal Alliance like a tidal wave.
Under such circumstances, even the Immortal Alliance dared not guarantee its own safety.
Therefore, it is impossible to destroy the Clear Wind Sect by displaying this Jade Slip.
However, Li Yunjing could use the clues within the Jade Slip...
Find some solid evidence to gain the upper hand and destroy the Clear Wind Sect.
This matter cannot be rushed; it must be done slowly, like boiling a frog in lukewarm water.
After leaving the Immortal Alliance, Li Yunjing planned to visit Clear Wind Pavilion.
He carried the identity tokens of Wan Xing and other Clear Wind Sect disciples.
Li Yunjing wanted to reveal this matter in front of Zhong Lan.
Look at Zhong Lan, look at the Clear Wind Sect's reaction.
Upon arriving at the Clear Wind Pavilion, Li Yunjing, without saying a word, immediately told Zhong Lan to get out.
Because of Li Yunjing's status, the Clear Wind Sect disciples dared not make any moves against Li Yunjing.
The only option was to inform Zhong Lan.
Meanwhile, the passing cultivators inside the Clear Wind Pavilion.
They all looked curious and excited.
On one side is the well-established Clear Wind Sect,
On one side are the young people who have recently risen to fame.
These passing monks were eager to see what sparks would fly between the two sides.
At this moment, Zhong Lan came down.
"Sect Leader Luozhen Luo Zhen, your presence is an honor. I apologize for not welcoming you sooner. Please, Sect Leader Li, come upstairs for a chat."
Zhong Lan smiled, completely unconcerned about Li Yunjing's provocation.
Li Yunjing waved his hand dismissively.
"No need. I've risen to inform you of the Clear Wind Sect."
Wan Xing and Qiu Yuhao, disciples of the Clear Wind Sect...
Ignoring the laws of the Immortal Alliance, these six individuals committed acts of violence against mortals without authorization. Discovered by the Immortal Alliance, they have been executed.
The Immortal Alliance demands an explanation from the Clear Wind Sect.
Li Yunjing took out the identity tokens of the six people and threw them directly in front of Zhong Lan.
Upon hearing Li Yunjing's words, the passersby and cultivators around him immediately erupted in an uproar.
No one expected that the disciples of the Clear Wind Sect would do such a thing.
All eyes immediately fell on Zhong Lan.
Zhong Lan's face darkened.
She didn't care about the deaths of the six people.
What bothered her was that the six people had implicated the Clear Wind Sect before they died.
"What a bunch of useless trash!" Zhong Lan cursed inwardly.
Despite her inner rage, Zhong Lan could not show the slightest dissatisfaction on the surface.
She could only feign ignorance, her face grim and bewildered, and speak with anger:
"Sect Leader Li, I will report this matter to the sect and have the sect leader provide a timely response to the Immortal Alliance."
Li Yunjing nodded slightly and turned to leave.
Suddenly, Li Yunjing stopped and turned to look at Zhong Lan.
"There's something else I forgot to tell you: Myriad Treasures Pavilion, which is opposite Clear Wind Pavilion, has been bought by the Luozhen Sect and will be open for business soon."
"Would Elder Zhong do me the honor of attending the opening ceremony?"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Lan's eyes widened and her hands clenched tightly.
The worst thing happened; Li Yunjing even came to their door to provoke them.
Clearly, Zhong Lan knew that Li Yunjing must have learned something.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to provoke us like this.
Zhong Lan had strong self-control; she returned to normal in just a short moment.
"Since Sect Leader Li has extended an invitation, I will certainly go." Zhong Lan smiled.
Seeing this, Li Yunjing also cupped his hands in greeting to the surrounding cultivators.
"Ladies and gentlemen, when Luozhen Treasure Pavilion for business, we will have many good items for sale at great discounts. We hope you will all come and support us."
