Upon seeing Wu Lingchuan turn his head, Ye Zhaozhao was stunned.
She roared in her mind.
"System, is Li Shuang crazy?! Why is she suddenly bringing this up?!"
Ye Zhaozhao felt completely out of sorts.
It was one thing for Li Shuang to be perceptive, but how dare she say something so baseless in public!
Yet!
This truly put her in a dilemma!
This time, she had indeed gained a lot of negative emotions from Wu Lingchuan.
If she quickly converted these negative emotions into strength, with Li Shuang's words as a foundation, everyone would find it suspicious!
If she didn't dare to use these negative emotions.
Then what good was this parasitic system to her?
Guarding a treasure but unable to use it?
She'd rather not have the treasure at all!
Wu Lingchuan looked at Ye Zhaozhao, his eyes slightly suspicious.
After Fang Qingyu came to the sect, her various actions had indeed been very strange.
When they first met, she was very close to him, her senior brother.
But once they arrived at the sect, although she still acted close to him verbally, she actually used various methods to put him in difficult situations.
Moreover.
His cultivation... had indeed been stagnant for three months.
Conversely.
Not only had Ye Zhaozhao's injuries fully recovered, but her cultivation had also significantly increased.
If she was truly such a genius, why hadn't she shown it before?
Fang Qingyu...
Is she really Ye Zhaozhao?!
Ye Zhaozhao panicked under Wu Lingchuan's gaze. She instinctively leaned closer to Yan Zhonghe and said, with a wronged expression, "Father, why is Li Shuang still slandering me? Your daughter has absolutely nothing to do with that Ye Zhaozhao! Second Senior Brother's cultivation suddenly stagnated, how can that be blamed on your daughter?"
As Ye Zhaozhao spoke, her eyes reddened. She looked at Li Shuang: "Li Shuang, what grudge or enmity do we have that you would frame me like this!"
Yan Zhonghe looked at Li Shuang, his expression also turning cold: "Ignorant child! Slandering my daughter, do you know what price you will pay!"
Li Shuang said expressionlessly: "It's still the same thing! My Sword Sect has the Heart-Questioning Platform. If Ye Zhaozhao has a clear conscience, I am willing to go with her to the Heart-Questioning Platform. Those who speak the truth will be fine, and those who lie will suffer the thunderous punishment. Ye Zhaozhao, do you dare?"
Ye Zhaozhao's body trembled.
The scene of being judged on the Heart-Questioning Platform was still vivid in her mind; how could she be willing to try again?
Ye Zhaozhao said with a sorrowful and indignant expression: "Who doesn't know that the Heart-Questioning Platform exists to judge demonic cultivators and human traitors? I am neither a demonic cultivator nor a human traitor, so why should I go to this Heart-Questioning Platform!"
Yan Zhonghe narrowed his eyes: "Qingyu, don't be afraid. With me here, I'd like to see who dares to throw dirt on you!"
This time, it seemed only a few of them had come to the Sword Sect.
But other members of the Overlord Blade Sect were also waiting at the foot of the mountain. Moreover, the Grand Elder was hidden in the void.
If the Sword Sect truly dared to act recklessly.
Heh.
The current strength of the Overlord Blade Sect was above theirs!
Li Shuang's expression was indifferent: "I have said all I need to say. Those who are willing to believe should guard themselves; those who are unwilling to believe are those who are beyond persuasion and seek death."
Li Shuang glanced at Wu Lingchuan: "I hope when I see you three years from now, you haven't been drained dry."
Wu Lingchuan's body trembled.
"Nonsense!" Yan Zhonghe was furious. A spiritual energy chain appeared in his hand, and he directly pulled Wu Lingchuan to his side.
"You disgraceful thing, you lost the competition and still have the nerve to blame Qingyu!" Yan Zhonghe said coldly.
Wu Lingchuan lowered his eyes and carefully knelt down: "How could Qingyu have any connection with that Ye Zhaozhao? Master, please rest assured, this disciple did not believe that Li Shuang."
Yan Zhonghe sneered: "That's good."
"Second Senior Brother, you're injured. Don't kneel, sit down and heal your wounds." Ye Zhaozhao looked worriedly as she tried to help Wu Lingchuan up.
Wu Lingchuan's whole body stiffened, and he instinctively dodged.
Ye Zhaozhao's expression couldn't help but change.
Wu Lingchuan also realized he had overreacted. He tried to relax: "Thank you for your concern, Junior Sister."
"It's nothing," Ye Zhaozhao's expression was a bit forced.
She couldn't help but glare angrily at Li Shuang.
Damn it!
Wu Lingchuan didn't dare to express his suspicion of her in front of Yan Zhonghe.
But he was still influenced by Li Shuang's words.
Not just Wu Lingchuan.
Xin He and Ren Gu, and even Yan Zhonghe, even if they didn't believe it now, in the future, if her cultivation truly inexplicably surged, would they remember Li Shuang's words today?
Wu Lingchuan was mentally prepared, and it would probably not be so easy to deceive him in the future.
Her well-laid plan had been largely ruined by Li Shuang.
She now had a pile of Wu Lingchuan's negative emotions, but she didn't dare to use any of them!
Ye Zhaozhao dared not show her inner frustration, only trying to maintain a wronged appearance.
Yan Zhonghe looked at his daughter's appearance, feeling a little distressed. He coldly looked at Li Shuang: "Li Shuang, is it? You've had quite the fortune, obtaining a soul cultivation method from who knows where! A soul cultivation method that can be cultivated at the Golden Core stage, your method is quite interesting. If you had contributed such a good method earlier, the previous Sword Sect disciples might not have lost. It's a bit selfish for you to enjoy such a method all by yourself."
Yan Zhonghe directly tried to sow discord.
Li Shuang frowned slightly.
However.
Li Shuang didn't even need to speak, and the Sword Sect disciples couldn't help but become angry.
They didn't know what a soul cultivation method was, but Li Shuang obtaining such a secret method was her fortune. What obligation did she have to share it?
"Sect Master Yan is so generous, I suppose all the secret methods you possess, Sect Master Yan, must have been shared with the entire sect, right?" Luo Mingyue couldn't help but say.
"Disciples of the Overlord Blade Sect should be careful from now on. If you ever have any fortuitous encounters, remember to share them with the sect immediately, otherwise, you'll be considered selfish," Jiang Yungge said expressionlessly.
"Is Sect Master Yan trying to change the subject now? What about the arrogance of the Overlord Blade Sect disciples when they first arrived? After being defeated by Senior Sister Li, they start making excuses?"
"Is the Overlord Blade Sect such a sore loser?"
All the Sword Sect disciples unhesitatingly stood by Li Shuang.
Lin Qingling smiled at the sight. She looked at Yan Zhonghe mockingly: "I've never seen someone demand saintly standards from others while applying trashy standards to themselves."
"Lin Qingling!" Yan Zhonghe glared at her in annoyance.
Lin Qingling raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong, Sect Master Yan? I wasn't talking about you. I was just speaking my mind."
Yan Zhonghe was so choked up that he felt an urge to spit blood.
Meng Yifei laughed and smoothed things over: "Sect Master Yan, we sword cultivators speak rather directly, please don't take it too personally. Of course, you were the one who spoke inappropriately first, so I imagine you wouldn't be too bothered by it."
Yan Zhonghe: "..."
