The secret passage was winding and should be an underground palace. Luo Jinxiao was like a headless fly, bumping around everywhere, not knowing how she crawled out. She only knew that when she saw the light of day again, a pale hand pulled her up from the ground, gently and powerfully.
She tried to open her eyes wide to see who was coming, but everything in front of her was blurry. She only saw that the person was dressed in white, even his hair was gray.
But judging from her figure, she doesn't seem very old.
Luo Jinxiao grabbed her wrist with his backhand and said with all his strength: "Help me find Qu Weiyin."
The man hesitated and asked softly, "Qu Weiyin, who is this?"
Her voice was ethereal and melodious, like heavenly music.
Luo Jinxiao didn't know whether she really didn't know or was pretending, but she felt the dull pain in her heart became more severe. A blood mist shrouded her eyes and she stumbled and fell.
After that, she completely lost consciousness.
One day later, Baiyu Terrace.
The voices of the two disciples after their spiritual power grew stronger resounded through the clouds, shocking the entire Wuhui Sect.
Many disciples gathered at the White Jade Platform, all with confused looks on their faces, not knowing what was going on. Later, the elders who were discussing matters in the No Regrets Palace also rushed over after hearing the news.
Elder He hurried along, pushed aside the crowd, and shouted, "Why are you all gathered here?"
When he arrived at the center, he saw two disciples in white standing there. Their expressions instantly turned into astonishment, and their brows furrowed. “Huaishan Huaiyu, what are you doing!”
The male and female disciples looked at each other, suddenly lifted the corners of their robes, and knelt down together. The male disciple's eyes were filled with tears, and he was terrified. He said in a trembling voice: "Master, Master, we have been hesitant and dared not say more since we came back from the demon world, but now, we can no longer hide it!"
"Hide? What are you hiding? I'm confused!" Elder He stroked his beard and turned to look at Elder Mei and others who came with him.
"Elder He, please allow him to say so." Elder Mei said with a stern face and raised her chin.
After hearing this, the man burst into tears and became even more terrified. He looked at the woman again and gritted his teeth and said, "A few days ago, my sister Huaiyu and I and other fellow disciples went to exorcise the demon. We were caught by the demon and locked up in a high tower in the demon world."
“Later, everyone heard that it was Master Qu who broke into the demon world and rescued the two of us.”
"We are of course aware of this matter. When Weiyin comes back, we will reward her. Why are you doing this?" Elder He was puzzled.
“But when we were rescued, we witnessed with our own eyes that Master Qu had the same demonic aura emanating from him as those monsters.”
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a bolt from the blue, and the crowd was in an uproar.
Chang Siyu squeezed out of the crowd, raised his sword suddenly, and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, Junior Master Qu grew up in Wuhui Sect, how could he have demonic energy on him!"
Huaiyu screamed in fear. She hid behind Huaishan and said tremblingly: "Brother Siyu, what we said is true. Otherwise, how could she know the entrance to the demon world?"
"This!" Chang Siyu was speechless. He threw his sleeves in anger. "So what? Can you wrongly accuse Junior Master Qu based on what you two said?"
"Yes, Junior-Master Qu went through so much trouble to save you, and you actually turned against me!" Lu Fanzhi also said. Her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had not slept all night.
"Everything we say is true. Elders and Master, please understand." Huaishan said loudly, "Even Luo Jinxiao, who went with her, has disappeared, right?"
"Shut up!" Lu Fanzhi stepped forward and was about to hit someone, but was stopped by Elder Mei.
"How dare you! All the elders are here, stop making trouble!" She stopped him in a stern voice, "Huaishan Huaiyu, what else did you see?"
The two of them leaned close together, as if they were struggling for a long time before they continued, "We noticed that the evil spirit on Junior Master Qu is very similar to the one that has been lingering in the Wuhui Sect recently."
As soon as these words were spoken, the reaction was even greater. If the previous words could only prove that Qu Weiyin had demonic energy, but now these words made it clear that the disappearance of disciples in the sect these days was all caused by Qu Weiyin.
Chang Siyu's eyes widened in shock, his hands were shaking, and he gritted his teeth: "You will have to pay a price for what you said!"
"This is a serious matter, we dare not speak rashly. We didn't say it before because we were afraid of the current situation." Huaiyu leaned closely against Huaishan, shivering, looking very pitiful.
The elders looked at each other, and saw shock in each other's eyes.
"Let's do this first. No one of you is allowed to mention it again!" Elder Mei said solemnly. She stretched out her hand to disperse the disciples who were talking about different things. She strode to Huaishan and Huaiyu and said in a deep voice: "You two, come with me."
This farce came and went quickly, and spread even faster. Before long, the news that Qu Weiyin had demonic energy spread throughout the Wuhui Sect.
Lu Fanzhi was really at her wits' end. She couldn't find anyone to turn to for help. Luo Ning had been looking for Luo Jinxiao since yesterday and was still running around outside. Everyone else thought that Luo Jinxiao had also become one of the missing disciples. Apart from comforting her, no one could provide help, not even the elders.
Qu Weiyin's shadow was nowhere to be seen, and the same was true for Elder Liu, who was nowhere to be found.
She was so anxious that she ran around in a panic. When she returned to her master with nothing to show for it, she suddenly burst into tears.
Gui Jiu was busy with Qu Weiyin's matter and was confused. Suddenly, he saw Lu Fanzhi's crying face. He was stunned for a moment, then hurried forward to hand her a handkerchief and frowned, saying, "What's wrong? Why are you crying like this?"
"Master, Master, I can't find Luo Jinxiao, wuwuwu..."
"She cares the most about Junior Master Qu. If she knew someone had wronged her, she would definitely find a way..."
"But she's missing. Is she dead? Ah, wuwuwu..."
Gui Jiu's head was buzzing with anxiety because of her crying. He scratched his head anxiously, but he didn't dare to touch her. He could only say: "After Luo Jinxiao disappeared, we notified the Luo family, but no one came, as if they didn't have such a daughter. Apart from that, there is nothing we can do..."
"What do the elders think about Junior-Master Qu's matter?" Lu Fanzhi blew her nose with a handkerchief.
Gui Jiu sighed and shook his head, saying, "How can we have a definitive conclusion on this matter? It's all just empty talk. The elders are trying to find Qu Weiyin and ask her face to face. But..."
"But what?" Lu Fanzhi threw away the sticky handkerchief in her hand and spread her hands to ask for it again.
Gui Jiu hurriedly took out another piece and handed it to her, with a look of regret: "Once a rumor comes out, it is difficult to clarify it, whether it is true or not. Moreover, now is a time when people are in a panic. Everyone is angry and there is no guarantee that they will not transfer their fear to Uncle Qu. Unless the murderer is caught, it will be difficult to clear her suspicion even if she comes back."
Lu Fanzhi's hand that was wiping her nose paused. She wiped away her tears and thought secretly, Luo Jinxiao, oh Luo Jinxiao, your junior master is in trouble, why haven't you come back yet.
At the same time, in the hall.
Qu Chengzhou sat high on the throne, looking down at Yan Ying who was bowing her head and keeping silent in front of him.
"Are you sure she is seriously injured and dying?"
Yan Ying clutched her sleeves tightly, her eyes flickering slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Yes."
"She ran away." Qu Chengzhou suppressed his anger and said slowly, "You couldn't stop her?"
Yan Ying still kept her head down, not daring to speak.
Qu Chengzhou gently stroked his beard and leaned down to look: "The Yan family has been working for this elder, so they can get so many benefits. Now if you dare to deceive this elder, I will make your parents buried with you."
"Disciple dare not." Yan Ying closed her eyes and said after hearing this.
"That's good. But my magical power is about to be completed. Even if Luo Jinxiao is missing, it's not a big deal. A mere yellow-haired girl is nothing to be afraid of."
"What I'm afraid of is Qu Weiyin. But now she is the devil in people's minds. It won't be long before the righteous people will attack her. At that time, I, the elder, will get rid of her and become the sect leader naturally." Qu Chengzhou couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Yes." Yan Ying gritted her teeth and answered.
———
When Luo woke up again tonight, he was lying in the woods with a layer of fallen leaves covering his face, all of which were blown down by the wind last night.
She sat up as if in another world, looked around, and found herself sitting deep in a maple forest on Wuhui Mountain, her body covered with fallen leaves, as if she had been lying there for a very long time.
She remembered what happened before she fainted, and hurriedly stood up, holding on to a tree trunk beside her. The dust choked her and made her cough repeatedly.
Looking down, the bloodstains on his body were still very eye-catching, but the pain and discomfort were all gone, as if he had never been injured.
The woman she saw before she fainted! Luo Jinxiao suddenly remembered that she hurriedly ran a few steps in the forest, and there was no way she could see anyone.
Where did she go along the dark passage, who did she see, everything seemed like a dream.
Now, no one knew how many days had passed, and no one knew what was going on in the sect. Luo Jinxiao didn't even have time to brush off the dust on his body, so he stretched out his hand to call out Wu Jue, and flew away on his sword.
Wuhui Gate was in a mess, and the atmosphere was very different from when she left. Luo Jinxiao walked quickly on the road, and people who met her looked as if they had seen a ghost, but no one came forward to comfort her.
It was not until he met Guijiu at the gate of Wuhui Palace that he was grabbed by him. His face was filled with astonishment and anxiety, and he asked, "You're back?"
Seeing an acquaintance, Luo Jinxiao hurriedly pulled him aside and asked, "Excuse me, has the junior master returned?"
"I'm back, I'm back, and I just came back." Guijiu shook her head and sighed, "Fanzhi and Luo Ning have been looking for you everywhere these days, but they can't find you. Luo Ning is even more worried, she got sick from worrying so much, and now she's lying in bed. It's so rare for a cultivator to get sick, it's obvious that she was really anxious."
Luo Jinxiao looked unhappy and felt apologetic.
“As for Uncle Qu…” Guijiu hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong, Junior Master?" Luo Jinxiao frowned.
"Forget it, go and see for yourself. People have become increasingly panicked these past few days. Tomorrow, all factions and families will gather here to discuss the matter of Master Qu. Everyone believes that Master Qu is a demon and is going to attack him."
"What? Demon?" Luo Jinxiao thought something was wrong, thanked him, and ran away.
When he arrived at Qu Weiyin's side, the murderous aura around him was already very heavy. Qu Weiyin was standing upright in the center of the disciples, his eyes were red, but he did not have the Crescent Moon and Star Sword in his hand.
Her expression could be described as wooden. The noise around her seemed to have nothing to do with her, but it also seemed to be the straw that destroyed her will.
Many disciples surrounded her, but none of them dared to approach her. Some whispered to each other, while others kept hiding behind her, with fear and disgust in their eyes.
They didn't want to leave, but they were all deeply afraid of her.
When Luo Jinxiao saw Qu Weiyin's expression, he felt as if he had seen her helplessness in the face of the attack from the righteous forces in her previous life, and his heart ached.
A sudden surge of anger surged in her heart, and cold air burst out from her hands, blowing the disciples watching around her toppling over and over. She blew a path through it, strode in, and grabbed Qu Weiyin's cold hand.
"Junior Master, I'm here, don't be afraid." She said with red eyes.
