However, Black Tortoise Academy could only swallow their anger for the time being. After all, Liu Wuji had personally admitted to many crimes.
Although everyone in Black Tortoise Academy, including Liu Wuji's father, the Great Elder, did not believe that Liu Wuji had the ability to deal with a Golden Immortal expert with a killing curse, the things that he personally admitted could not be refuted in a short period of time.
Of course, the things that Liu Wuji had done before could not be erased. After Liu Wuji's death, those experts who could not be killed by the curse and could only be bedridden miraculously began to recover at the same time.
Among these people, there were many experts and disciples of big Sect. Black Tortoise Academy would be in a terrible situation if these people were to cause trouble.
Another thing that gave Great Elder a headache was that Liu Wuji did not only deal with the enemies outside, but also the experts within the Sect. At the very least, there were no less than 10 people who had disagreements with Liu Wuji or were competitors with the Great Elder.
Not to mention Liu Wuji, even the Great Elder could not afford to commit the crime of harming his fellow disciples. Therefore, he could only temporarily retreat with hatred and wait for the day when he could make a comeback.
However, whether it was the Sect Master or the Great Elder of Black Tortoise Academy, they were not willing to admit that this matter was exposed by Profound Heaven Sect. Every Sect would protect their own people and Black Tortoise Academy was no exception. Especially when the core members of Black Tortoise Academy thought that Profound Heaven Sect was only doing this for an Eight Revolution Pill.
Preconceived notions were very troublesome and it was almost impossible to get rid of them once they were certain. At that time, everyone knew about Lin Zongxun's injuries. If it wasn't for this Eight Revolution Pill, he might not have been able to hold on until Great Master Yang finished refining the pill.
Black Tortoise Academy could understand Great Wilderness Sect's actions. Any other Sect would also investigate the matter with great fanfare when one of their Grandmasters disappeared inexplicably. In this regard, Great Wilderness Sect did a good job. It was just a simple investigation. Even after the investigation, they only sent Liu Wuji and the evidence of his crimes over without asking for anything else.
It was precisely because Great Wilderness Sect did not ask for anything other than revenge that Black Tortoise Academy could accept it. However, Profound Heaven Sect could not forgive them for doing this just for an Eight Revolution Pill. Even though it was not the time to fall out with Profound Heaven Sect, the thorn in their hearts had been firmly planted.
Lin Zongxun died well! The higher-ups of the Black Tortoise Academy were secretly delighted. Who told you to covet my family's Eight Revolution Pills? Now you're facing retribution, aren't you?
Basically, the higher-ups of a Super Sect all had the same thought. If it weren't for this guy, how could they have suffered another loss in the Zhao Family's lair? This fellow was truly too arrogant. So long as it was a Mysterious Immortal Realm expert that had come into contact with him, they would be infuriated by his arrogant, despotic, and condescending attitude.
At the same time, the Mysterious Heaven Sect was still searching for Lin Zongxun's murderer both inside and outside the Sect. The native slave who did this had already committed suicide, so they couldn't obtain any testimony from him. However, there were many cultivators who had come into contact with him, so they had to capture and interrogate them one by one.
Sect Master Wu was already furious. Lin Zongxun's death made him sit on the crater of a volcano. If he couldn't find the culprit, then either Grandmaster Zhou Sheng would kill him when he returned, or he would be tortured to death by the Grandmaster after ascending. The dignified Mysterious Heaven Sect couldn't even protect an injured disciple, so what was the use of having a Sect Master?
The same thing had actually happened once in the Mysterious Heaven Sect. It was also the Zhao Family who took action and caught all the experts who were resurrected through the Divine Perching Jade. At that time, the Mysterious Heaven Sect's Sect Master was still Sect Master Wang, and he almost collapsed because of this. After that, he was successfully plotted against by the Zhao Family, and it was also because of this that he was stimulated.
However, after decades of investigation, there were a lot of suspects, but no one had the chance to make a move. Every cultivator had the motive to make a move, but no one could really say who could really put it into practice.
In the Mysterious Heaven Sect, everyone was in danger. Everyone understood that on one hand, Sect Master Wu was investigating the cause of Grandmaster Lin's death, and on the other hand, he was wantonly eradicating dissidents.
There was no other way, Sect Master Wu's foundation was too shallow. His biggest reliance was Zhou Sheng and Lin Zongxun. Now, Zhou Sheng was still in the core of the trial ground, and he didn't know when he would come back, but Lin Zongxun was already dead. Seeing that the position of the acting Sect Master was about to be lost, how could Sect Master Wu not take the initiative to gain the upper hand?
When Sect Master Wu took the position, there were not many disciples in the Mysterious Heaven Sect who truly supported him wholeheartedly. It was completely different from Sect Master Li's support rate of more than 90% at that time.
One had to know that before Sect Master Li became the Sect Master, he had repeatedly made great contributions. In addition, at that time, there was Yang Chen's support behind him, and all kinds of benefits were sprinkled out like flowing water. How many people in the Mysterious Heaven Sect were indebted to him, and how many people supported him? This kind of good popularity was absolutely not something that Sect Master Wu possessed.
Even now, it was unknown how many disciples in the Mysterious Heaven Sect stood on the side of Sect Master Wu in name, but in their hearts, they still thought of Sect Master Li. This was something that Sect Master Wu was well aware of.
Sect Master Wu's ascension was really too impatient. If according to normal development, Sect Master Li would definitely ascend in one or two thousand years. At that time, there was at least an 80% chance that Sect Master Wu would take over the Mysterious Heaven Sect, which focused on tradition.
Unfortunately, Zhou Sheng and Lin Zongxun who came from above paid too much attention to tradition. In addition, they suddenly enjoyed the taste of power and became muddle-headed, thinking that they could solve everything, which caused Sect Master Wu to be in an awkward situation now.
If he wanted to gain recognition from inside and outside the Sect, then he must have contributions that could be taken out. Sect Master Li did this in the past, but Sect Master Wu was unable to do it now. Therefore, for the sake of his current position, Sect Master Wu must do something to prove that he was worthy of the title of Sect Master.
Internal cleansing was necessary, otherwise, he would not be able to sit in this position and fulfill his ambitions. Sect Master Li was still under house arrest and was said to be in seclusion. Once someone released Sect Master Li, it would be big trouble.
However, for the time being, Sect Master Wu still did not dare to touch Sect Master Li, otherwise, it would be even more difficult to explain. He could only brandish the butcher's knife towards those disciples who were loyal to Sect Master Li. As long as it was someone who could threaten his position as Sect Master, they were all suspects, so he had to go to the Law Enforcement Hall first.
The Law Enforcement Hall of the Mysterious Heaven Sect had become the busiest Law Enforcement Hall in the entire Spiritual Realm. Every day, a large number of Mysterious Heaven Sect disciples were sent to court. At this time, it was the disciples with low cultivation who were lucky. After all, their strength was limited, and even if they had other thoughts, they did not have the ability. The real unlucky ones were those experts.
However, if Sect Master Wu really brandished the butcher's knife in the Sect, he was afraid that his position would become more and more unstable. At this time, Heavenly Dipper Great Elder Li came up with an idea.
