Qin Dongxue flew up to an elder in his fifties and bowed respectfully with cupped fists. "Qin Dongxue greets Eldest Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Sister, and Sixth Senior Sister!"
The five people on the peak were Big Senior Brother Guo Xiaotian, Third Senior Brother Wu Qifeng, Fourth Senior Brother Liu Suifeng, Fifth Senior Sister Ji Xiaoqing, and Sixth Senior Sister Zhong Chunyan.
Other than Second Senior Brother, five of the top six disciples were here, and each of them could suppress Qin Dongxue. This time, the Deity Sword Mountain Villa was a little too frightening.
The elder in the lead was naturally Big Senior Brother Guo Xiaotian. He had a majestic figure, and his long hair was tied up casually. His face was red, and he didn't have a beard. Just by standing there quietly, he exuded the aura of an expert.
Guo Xiaotian had a broad sword stuck diagonally on his back. Only the blade and hilt of the sword were exposed. His eyes were narrow and narrowed. He didn't even open his eyes when Qin Dongxue came to greet him.
But after a moment, Guo Xiaotian raised his eyebrows and opened his eyes slightly. Two rays of sword light swept across Qin Dongxue, and he was slightly surprised.
Guo Xiaotian immediately saw through Qin Dongxue's realm. Qin Dongxue had already broken through to Xiantian Realm Level Five in less than three months!
This kind of cultivation speed naturally shocked Guo Xiaotian. How was this possible?!
However, Qin Dongxue's current realm wasn't enough to catch Guo Xiaotian's attention. He quickly regained his composure and spoke with a voice that was as calm as an ancient well.
"Rise, let's talk."
Qin Dongxue's heart skipped a beat because Guo Xiaotian didn't call her Little Junior Sister like he usually did.
"Yes, Big Senior Brother."
Qin Dongxue's heart was heavy, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled gently and stood up slowly.
At this time, Qin Dongxue finally had time to observe the expressions of her seniors. Third Senior Brother Wu Qifeng was indifferent and didn't lift his eyelids. There was no expression on his face.
Fourth Senior Brother Liu Suifeng, who was infatuated with her, stared at her passionately. However, Qin Dongxue could see that other than the usual passion in his eyes, there was also a hint of schadenfreude hidden within.
Big Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, and Fourth Senior Brother were behaving normally. What puzzled Qin Dongxue was why Fifth Senior Sister and Sixth Senior Sister, who had never been to the city, were going down the mountain.
Especially Fifth Senior Sister Ji Xiaoqing. Although her looks were average, her realm and swordsmanship were extremely terrifying. Her true strength was far above Liu Suifeng's. Other than cultivating in Deity Sword Mountain Villa, she never interfered with worldly affairs. Why did she come to Qingshui City this time?
As for the Sixth Senior Sister, Zhong Chunyan, whose looks were above average, Qin Dongxue understood her after some thought. This Senior Sister was charming and had an exquisite figure. She loved to join in on the fun and had a crush on Fourth Senior Brother, Liu Suifeng. Now that she had the chance, how could she not come down the mountain?
Thinking of this, Qin Dongxue smiled sweetly and greeted the two Senior Sisters. "Senior Sister Ji, Senior Sister Zhong, the two of you came down the mountain too?"
Who knew that Zhong Chunyan would look at Qin Dongxue coldly and smile coldly. "Yo, Junior Sister Qin, what are you saying? If we don't come down the mountain, the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book will no longer belong to Deity Sword Mountain Villa …"
Qin Dongxue's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to explain, she heard Fifth Senior Sister snort coldly and say, "Qin Dongxue, do you know your crime?"
Qin Dongxue had always respected the seniors of Deity Sword Mountain Villa. This time, she was here to defend Ling Yun, but that didn't mean that she was easy to bully.
Upon hearing this, Qin Dongxue's anger was instantly ignited. Her pretty face turned cold, and she said angrily, "Fifth Senior Sister, I only greeted you because I respect you as a Senior Sister. It's fine if you didn't respond, but what right do you have to accuse me of this?"
"Ahem, all of you, shut up!"
Guo Xiaotian couldn't help but speak up when he saw that the situation was about to get out of hand.
The Eldest Senior Brother was the Eldest Senior Brother after all. Once he spoke, Ji Xiaoqing and Zhong Chunyan immediately stopped talking. They only looked at Qin Dongxue. One of them was as cold as an enemy, while the other was smiling with endless killing intent.
Even though Guo Xiaotian was very angry about Qin Dongxue's matter, he was still considered half a Master to Qin Dongxue. Naturally, he understood Qin Dongxue's temper very well.
However, he needed Qin Dongxue's explanation. He had already seen Qin Dongxue's attitude.
"Dongxue, let me ask you. Why did Master send you down the mountain this time?"
Qin Dongxue had to answer the Eldest Senior Brother's question truthfully. She cupped her fists again and said, "Reporting to Eldest Senior Brother, Master sent me down the mountain to find out news about the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book."
Guo Xiaotian opened his eyes slightly. His gaze was like a sword that swept across Qin Dongxue's face coldly. He continued to ask, "What about the news that you found?"
Qin Dongxue felt as though her face was being cut by a sword under Guo Xiaotian's gaze. Her delicate body trembled slightly, but she gritted her teeth and said, "Reporting to Eldest Senior Brother, I didn't find any news about the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book in the past three months!"
"Is that so?"
Guo Xiaotian's eyes widened, and a divine light flashed!
Zhong Chunyan finally seized the opportunity to mock him, but Guo Xiaotian seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He suddenly raised his hand and stopped her from speaking.
"The news of the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book appearing in Qingshui City has already spread all over the Pugilistic World. What's going on?"
Guo Xiaotian's aura surged, and his tone was sharp. He didn't give Qin Dongxue a chance to refute him!
Qin Dongxue gritted her teeth and tried her best to resist the terrifying aura exuding from the Eldest Senior Brother. She didn't take a single step back and said with difficulty, "I … I can't confirm that the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book have appeared, so I didn't dare to send false news back to the sect …"
The five people in front of her snorted at the same time.
Guo Xiaotian sighed in his heart and retracted his aura. "Alright, since that's the case, let's not talk about this for now."
"Let me ask you again. The little devil in Qingshui City wields the Devil's Underworld Essence Blade. He's cold-blooded and cold-blooded. He treats human lives like grass. Do you know about this?"
Qin Dongxue's breathing stopped!
Guo Xiaotian had been interrogating her since they met. He didn't give Qin Dongxue a chance to speak calmly. She couldn't use any of the words she had prepared in her heart!
However, Qin Dongxue couldn't remain silent under Guo Xiaotian's threatening gaze. She had no choice but to explain herself. "I … know about it!"
"But Ling Yun only killed people because they wanted to kill him. He did it to protect himself …"
"Shut up!" Guo Xiaotian couldn't hold back his anger when he saw that Qin Dongxue was trying to defend Ling Yun.
"Qin Dongxue, do you know that Ling Yun is automatically recognized as the Devil Master because he has the Devil's Underworld Essence Blade? It's fine if you don't draw a line with such a devil. How dare you try to defend him in front of me?"
Qin Dongxue couldn't defend herself. "Eldest Senior Brother, the Devil's Underworld Essence Blade is just a weapon. I can personally testify that Ling Yun has killed many people, but he has never killed anyone!"
"Hahahaha … Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
Guo Xiaotian was infuriated by Qin Dongxue. He laughed loudly and lowered his head to look at Qin Dongxue. "Dongxue, I didn't expect you to say such things to me after so many years of teaching!"
Guo Xiaotian's grey hair moved without any wind. True Qi surged in his body, and his robe fluttered. "Qin Dongxue, do you know that our Deity Sword Mountain Villa has become the laughing stock of all the sects in the world because of you?"
"According to reliable sources, Ling Yun killed Master Compassionless of Shaolin, Priestess Heartless of the Tranquil Sect, and Liu Deming of the Maoshan Sect …"
"Also, Shaolin Temple's Master Xingchi and Mao Mountain's Taoist Master Wuchen, who went down the mountain to investigate this matter, disappeared without a trace after arriving in Qingshui City. Until now, we haven't even found their corpses. Can you deny that their disappearance has nothing to do with that little devil?"
Qin Dongxue's body trembled slightly. She was speechless after hearing Guo Xiaotian's words. She was there when Ling Yun killed Master Xingchi and Taoist Wuchen.
However, Qin Dongxue still had a glimmer of hope. "Senior Brother … what you said is the truth, but … the other party wanted to kill Ling Yun. Is he just going to sit and wait for death?"
Guo Xiaotian was furious. With a wave of his hand, he said angrily, "As long as it's a member of the Devil Sect, anyone can kill him or her!"
"Qin Dongxue, since ancient times, good and evil have always been incompatible. Have you forgotten all about it?"
"Senior Brother doesn't blame you for saying that you can't confirm the news of the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book appearing. You've never sent any news back to the sect about the abnormal movements in Qingshui City. Senior Brother can ignore it, but you …"
"You knew that Ling Yun had the Devil's Blade, but you didn't draw a clear line with him. Instead, you defended him and spoke up for him. Tell me, how can I forgive you?"
Qin Dongxue was silent and suddenly calmed down. She waited for Guo Xiaotian to finish before she opened her mouth and said only one sentence.
"Big Senior Brother, Ling Yun is my sister's son. Even though he's only an adopted son, she told me to take good care of him before she left."
"Please forgive me, Qin Dongxue, for not being able to draw a clear line with Ling Yun and kill him!"
Guo Xiaotian's red face turned purple. He raised his hand and pointed. "You …"
"Good, good, good. It seems like this is your final decision?"
The anger in Guo Xiaotian's body finally turned into murderous intent!
Murderous intent filled the air!
Qin Dongxue's face was sad. She didn't expect that Big Senior Brother wouldn't give her any chance to explain.
"Since you've willingly fallen into the Devil Sect, I'll destroy your martial arts on behalf of Master and expel you from the sect!"
Guo Xiaotian finally raised his palm and channeled his True Qi. He was about to slap Qin Dongxue!
Who knew that at this moment!
"Clang!"
A sharp arrow pierced through the air and landed between Guo Xiaotian and Qin Dongxue!
"Guo, you're so angry!"
"You want to destroy my aunt's martial arts? Do you think you're worthy?"
