Li Shuang remained silent, simply gazing at Ancestor Xuanwei.
Ancestor Xuanwei raised an eyebrow: "What? Is becoming my disciple an insult to you?"
Ancestor Xuanwei looked at Li Shuang with a deterrent gaze.
She seemed to have used a tiny bit of soul power, and for a moment, Li Shuang felt an urge to immediately agree.
However.
The lotus petals shimmered, and this impulse instantly vanished without a trace.
Li Shuang's expression immediately turned completely cold.
Fighting is forbidden in Myriad Law City, and causing too much commotion would result in punishment by the rules.
Limited by the rules, Ancestor Xuanwei didn't act too obviously, only providing a small amount of inducement.
Anyone with a slightly less firm will might have subconsciously agreed.
It seems.
Myriad Law City isn't entirely safe.
Although fighting is forbidden here.
But...
If one truly wants to target someone, there are plenty of covert methods.
Li Shuang looked at Ancestor Xuanwei expressionlessly. Facing the deterrent power of a Tribulation Transcending Ancestor, she showed no sign of panic. She just slowly asked, "Elder Xuanwei, I feel like you're somewhat familiar. Have we... met before?"
Ancestor Xuanwei's expression subtly changed. She smiled: "I think this is our first meeting. I saw your exceptional talent, which is why I thought of taking you as my disciple."
Li Shuang raised an eyebrow: "Is that so?"
A guess had already formed in her mind.
If it were her identity as Li Shuang, there were indeed a few people who disliked her. Many wanted to harm her, perhaps from the Demonic Path, or the Demon Race, or the Tyrant Blade Sect; it was hard to say.
But in Myriad Law City, her identity was Li!
Li, in this identity, had barely interacted with anyone.
It was rare for someone to show such malice towards her right from the start.
Upon closer thought, the identity of this woman seemed to be on the verge of being revealed.
In the Gluttony Hell, she had already discovered that the mysterious young girl was merely a clone.
Her true identity must be that of a powerful expert.
Originally.
Li Shuang was still worried that a peerless expert was hiding in the shadows, ready to strike her at any moment.
But now, this person had actively revealed herself.
"Elder Xuanwei, long time no see." Li Shuang said calmly: "I'm very sorry about Roushan, but if it happened again, I would still kill him."
As Li Shuang's words fell.
A single stone stirred up a thousand ripples; everyone looked over with some surprise.
Those who had been watching the Genius Ranking had long noticed that Roushan, who had been lingering at the bottom of the list, had completely disappeared from the ranking, confirmed to be dead.
As a result.
Li Shuang openly admitted that she killed Roushan?
"Roushan was also from the Corroding Moon Sect, wasn't he?" Li Shuang smiled: "Are you here to avenge him, Senior? Or to avenge your clone?"
Li Shuang spoke without any reservation.
Ancestor Xuanwei's expression suddenly changed!
She had never expected Li Shuang to be so perceptive.
Ancestor Xuanwei's first reaction was, is this Li trying to trick her?
But Li Shuang's eyes were full of calm, and Ancestor Xuanwei suddenly realized that Li wasn't trying to trick her; she was absolutely certain.
This woman truly had something sinister about her!
Ancestor Xuanwei's aura instantly became even more terrifying. She said coldly: "You killed Roushan? I didn't know about this before, but I didn't expect you to bring it up yourself."
Since Li Shuang had spoken, she naturally intended to see it through.
She calmly said: "Not only did I kill Roushan, but I also killed Yilan. In the Gluttony Hell, Yilan, as a disciple of the righteous path, colluded with the demonic path's Roushan. The two of them conspired to frame others to their deaths, allowing them to pass the trial smoothly. They've done this many times, and I don't know how many righteous disciples have died due to their schemes!"
Li Shuang spoke loudly.
The scene immediately erupted in an uproar.
Leaving Roushan aside.
This Yilan had a considerable reputation among the lower-level disciples.
She was a friendly person, and many people throughout Myriad Law City had met her.
But now.
Li said...
This Yilan was actually a spy for the demonic path!
"Is what you say true?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"Naturally, it's true. This time, Yilan tricked Ziguang into entering the Gluttony Hell with her, and ultimately caused his death there." Li Shuang calmly stated: "They also tried to harm me, but I simply counter-killed them."
The scene immediately became boisterous.
"It was like this!"
"Heavens! I suddenly remembered something. Two years ago, Yilan also invited me to go to Gluttony Hell. But I had something urgent come up and couldn't go, so I felt very apologetic. Now it seems... if I had gone, I would have been buried in Gluttony Hell with Ziguang."
Li Shuang glanced at the speaker and said, "That makes sense. Because you had something urgent, a spot became vacant. It just so happened that I mistakenly entered Gluttony Hell and filled the last spot. Otherwise, Yilan and Roushan's scheme might have remained hidden forever."
The person immediately showed an expression of extreme fear.
"This Yilan is from the West Mountain Sect! Since she's a demon spy, who knows if anyone in the West Mountain Sect has been subverted by her! This matter must be thoroughly investigated!"
"Finding one demon spy often means there's a string of demon spies behind them. This matter indeed needs careful investigation."
Everyone discussed animatedly.
There were also disciples from the demonic path scoffing.
"The righteous path only pretends. Honestly, how few righteous spies are there in the demonic path?"
"Everyone uses their own methods."
"They are all cultivators; is there really anyone who is truly soft-hearted?"
The scene looked like it was about to erupt into an argument.
Ancestor Xuanwei's expression changed repeatedly. Suddenly, she sneered: "You believe whatever this Li says? What if she deliberately killed others in Gluttony Hell and is now intentionally saying this? If she hadn't gained immense benefits in Gluttony Hell, how could her cultivation have increased so quickly?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Shuang.
Li Shuang's face was calm: "I achieved a perfect clear in Gluttony Hell, and indeed gained many benefits. The requirement for a perfect clear is to eat a hundred dishes from Gluttony Hell in one go. With such a trial, why would I need to harm Yilan and the others?"
As soon as Li Shuang spoke, she revealed an important piece of information.
There were only a few people who had perfectly cleared Gluttony Hell. Those who did clear it had never revealed the specific details.
The information Li Shuang provided was the first time the mysterious veil of Gluttony Hell's perfect clear requirements had been lifted.
"Moreover. To know if I'm telling the truth, everyone just needs to think about how many people who were close to Yilan are still alive, and they'll know, won't they? At the very least, if the West Mountain Sect investigates thoroughly, they will surely find traces," Li Shuang said.
