Demoness’s Art of Vengeance

Chapter 16: The second elder has ulterior motives

Views:

Yu Wanrou was indeed hypocritical, but she never felt there was anything wrong with hypocrisy. If her mother in her previous life had not won the love of her father with her pitiful appearance, as a mistress and illegitimate daughter, they would have been suppressed to the point of collapse by her father's powerful wife.

Therefore, according to Yu Wanrou's life principles, as long as one can achieve one's goal, all means can be used, even if one has to step on other stepping stones to climb up.

Yu Wanrou never took Jun Xiaomo seriously. Although Jun Xiaomo is Qin Lingyu's engaged fiancée, as long as Qin Lingyu's heart is still with her, it will only be a matter of time before she gets Qin Lingyu. What's more, Jun Xiaomo is extremely stupid, just like helping others to pay after being sold. Yu Wanrou despises her methods and scheming even more.

Unexpectedly, she would suffer a big loss from this person one day!

Although Yu Wanrou doesn't mind using some extraordinary means to achieve her goals, she doesn't want this kind of thing to be exposed. Jun Xiaomo directly pointed out her "too hypocritical" nature in front of everyone, which made Yu Wanrou's face burn with pain.

It was as if the human skin mask had been torn off, causing Yu Wanrou's heart to stop for a moment in pain.

Due to the distance and the fact that Yu Wanrou raised her head, others did not see the momentary panic in Yu Wanrou's eyes. They only thought that Yu Wanrou was intimidated by Jun Xiaomo's momentum, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, the eldest lady is really a eldest lady, she speaks without mercy or politeness.

However, this time, their dislike for Jun Xiaomo was much less. They couldn't comment on Yu Wanrou's personality for the time being, because they didn't have much contact with Yu Wanrou, and Yu Wanrou's reputation in the sect had always been very good, and they said she was kind and generous. But Jun Xiaomo seems to have a pretty good personality, straightforward, clear-cut in his hatred, simple and straightforward, with a bit of arrogance, like a civet cat, and not offensive.

Others did not see Yu Wanrou's guilty conscience, but Jun Xiaomo saw it clearly. She curled her lips towards Yu Wanrou, but the smile did not reach her eyes - Yu Wanrou, this was just the first step.

Yu Wanrou tightened the hem of her clothes unconsciously and bit her lower lip.

Everyone's eyes wandered between Jun Xiaomo and Yu Wanrou: Jun Xiaomo's words were reasonable, and his aura overwhelmed Yu Wanrou, but Yu Wanrou's tearful and grievance-filled look was also... It's not like forgery. What's more, the injuries on Yu Wanrou's body have been checked by the second elder, and they are not false. In this way, it is hard to tell who is lying and who is telling the truth.

Just when everyone's minds were confused by the drama and they couldn't figure out their thoughts, the second elder who had been silent for a long time suddenly slowly opened his lips and spoke.

"Actually, there is one thing I didn't point out just now. There seems to be a faint trace of demonic energy remaining in disciple Yu Wanrou's Dantian, but because it is similar to spiritual energy and its earth, I can't make a conclusion. Now it seems that Yu Wanrou does not rule out that she was injured by a demon cultivator. After all, there have been precedents in which a demon cultivator disguised himself as a disciple of our sect and poisoned another disciple to cause disputes within the sect."

What? ! Demonic energy? !

All the disciples were shocked. The Xuyang Sect was a well-known and upright sect and had always hated demon cultivators. They didn't expect that this incident would involve demon cultivators!

But, why didn’t the second elder say anything just now? Everyone had doubts in their hearts, but no one dared to question the sect elders directly.

Jun Xiaomo lowered his eyes, hiding the violent fluctuations of emotions in his eyes.

Sure enough! The old guys in the sect can see the difference between demonic energy and spiritual energy. In this case, why no one mentioned the demonic energy in her body in the previous life, but it was not until the demonic energy in her body broke out that she punished evil and promoted good In the name of chasing her to the ends of the earth!

Jun Xiaomo felt that her whole temple was aching, and the anger in her heart was swelling rapidly, and the whispers around her reminded her of the feeling of being alone and helpless when she was being chased in her previous life.

"Quiet." The second elder suddenly released a powerful pressure. Not everyone could bear the pressure of the God Transformation stage. Many people felt chest tightness and shortness of breath for an instant. The suffocation at that moment made them stay silent.

The second elder raised his eyelids and said: "Since both Jun Xiaomo and Yu Wanrou have their own opinions, and both have valid reasons, and it is not ruled out that there are demon cultivators at work, we can discuss this matter later. Ling Yu. "The second elder called out to Qin Lingyu, who had been holding Qin Shanshan and standing silently aside.

"Yes, Second Elder, may I ask what the Second Elder's instructions are?" Qin Lingyu couldn't do the bow and could only lower his head.

"Wait a while and you lead a few disciples to search the woods outside the sect to see if there are any traces of demon cultivators."

"Yes, Second Elder." Qin Lingyu agreed in a deep voice.

The second elder nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and said calmly to the disciples below: "Let this matter end here for the time being. You must remember that you must not kill each other in the same sect, otherwise the sect will deal with it! Let's disperse. "

"Yes, elder." The disciples stood up, bowed respectfully, and sent the three elders off from the punishment hall.

After the second elder left, everyone could finally discuss it loudly and boldly. Some people were puzzled by the fact that the second elder concealed the demonic energy, while others believed that the truth still lay with Jun Xiaomo and Yu Wanrou. Many cryptic and probing eyes fell on Jun Xiaomo and Yu Wanrou, as if hoping to find one or two clues from their expressions.

Jun Xiaomo clenched his fists and looked calmly at the direction the three elders were leaving.

She somewhat suspected that the reason why the second elder revealed the demonic energy in Yu Wanrou's wound in the end was to protect Yu Wanrou and prevent her from being blamed for "slandering her fellow disciples".

Just, why? The second elder and Yu Wanrou are neither close nor friends, so he doesn't need to do this at all, right

Also, since the second elder was able to detect such a weak trace of demonic energy in Yu Wanrou’s body, why did the second elder say that he couldn’t find it at all when her cultivation stagnated due to the demonic aura in her body in her previous life? To the reason

Did he not notice the demonic energy accumulating in her body, or did he find out about it and didn't intend to tell her about it

Jun Xiaomo's eyes slightly condensed with a layer of frost.

"Wanrou, how are you? Can you go back by yourself?" A male cultivator's voice rang not far away, interrupting Jun Xiaomo's thoughts. She followed the sound and looked over and found that it was one of Yu Wanrou's admirers, who was from the same peak as Yu Wanrou.

"I... I think it's okay." Yu Wanrou's face was still stained with tears. She seemed to be trying to stand up from the futon, but her feet gave way and she fell down, and was caught by the male cultivator.

"It's better that I take you back." The male cultivator said with a worried tone, but there was admiration and joy in his eyes.

Obviously, he was happy to have the opportunity to be close to the beauty.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Brother Ke." Yu Wanrou said in a soft voice, but her eyes looked towards Qin Lingyu inadvertently.

As a result, after Qin Lingyu gave instructions to several fellow apprentices about finding the demon cultivators, he hugged Qin Shanshan and left without even giving Yu Wanrou or Jun Xiaomo a look.

Yu Wanrou lowered her head, feeling bitter and astringent in her heart. Even if she knew that Qin Lingyu's indifference to her was deliberate to prevent anyone from discovering their feelings, she would still be sad. After all, her whole heart was still focused on Qin Lingyu.

Forget it, Jun Xiaomo is Ling Yu's nominal fiancée, doesn't Ling Yu not give her much attention? Yu Wanrou comforted herself. Thinking of this, she felt a little more mentally balanced.

Yu Wanrou raised her head, wanting to see that Jun Xiaomo was as disappointed as she was. Unexpectedly, she only caught the back of Jun Xiaomo - Jun Xiaomo left the Punishment Hall in a hurry, as if chasing someone. .

Let’s go after Ling Yu. Yu Wanrou smiled sarcastically: Go ahead, no matter how you chase, the person Ling Yu likes is still me!

Of course Jun Xiaomo is not chasing Qin Lingyu. Since her rebirth, whenever she meets an enemy from her previous life, she can't help but feel a burst of physical and psychological disgust. How could she take the initiative to chase Qin Lingyu to kill herself? Looking for guilt

She was chasing Ye Xiuwen. A few hours ago, she saw Ye Xiuwen's figure in the woods, but after searching for a long time, she only found Yu Wanrou, which made her wonder if she had seen it wrong.

As a result, she saw Ye Xiuwen again in the Punishment Hall. That figure of independence was so clearly engraved in her mind that it became the last piece of warmth that guarded her in her previous life.

However, this warmth was lost by her stupidity in her previous life.

In this life, besides her parents, the person she most wanted to see was Ye Xiuwen. Naturally, her other senior brothers were also among the people she wanted to see, but she couldn't get the word "most" yet.

Jun Xiaomo swore that if Ye Xiuwen fell in love with someone in this life, she would definitely try her best to help Ye Xiuwen get him. This is what she owed Ye Xiuwen.

Of course, the character of the other party must be trustworthy. As for the Zhang Shuyue in her previous life, she would only give him one sword!

"Senior Brother Ye!" Jun Xiaomo hurriedly called out to the white figure in front of her, then sped up and rushed over - her body was very weak due to the decline in cultivation, but her strong will He supported her and ran over.

She didn't know why she did this, but if she couldn't truly feel Ye Xiuwen's existence, she would feel that all of this was just a reflection of the moon in the mirror, and she would wake up and return to that dungeon.

Ye Xiuwen stopped and turned around slowly.

"Senior Brother Ye!" Jun Xiaomo called again, his eyes suddenly turned red.

When he was on the run in his previous life, how many times had Senior Brother Ye stood not far away like this, quietly waiting for him.

It was she who killed Senior Brother Ye...

Ye Xiuwen didn't expect that Jun Xiaomo would call him to stop, nor did he expect that the other party would come straight towards him like an arrow off the string.

The curtain hat blocked the surprise in his eyes. Before Ye Xiuwen could react, a petite body rushed into his arms and hugged his waist tightly, rubbing his warm face. Buried into his chest.

Ye Xiuwen was stunned and froze on the spot.
