Zuo Fanmei looked at Ruan Qianqian and remained silent for a long time.
"Elder Yan, I'll have to trouble you to keep this a secret for now."
"Ruan Qianqian, from today onwards, you are expelled from Cold Moon Palace. Leave!"
Zuo Fanmei said bitterly. She didn't have the heart to deal with Ruan Qianqian. Otherwise, with Ruan Qianqian's betrayal, even a thousand cuts wouldn't be enough.
The harsher ones would have their entire family wiped out!
"Master, can I use the teleportation array in the palace once? If I don't use the Teleportation Array, I'm afraid I'll be caught by Qin Yang once I leave. "
Ruan Qianqian pleaded.
Yan Yuanjia said in a deep voice, "Palace Master, I object to you doing this. If you let go of Ruan Qianqian so easily, it will only cause endless trouble for our Cold Moon Palace. In the future, there might even be more people who will learn from Ruan Qianqian. In any case, even if they fail, there won't be any punishment!"
"If that's the case, our Cold Moon Palace will face many more calamities in the future. A moment of soft-heartedness from you might cause countless deaths in our Cold Moon Palace!"
The other two Level Nine experts also stood out to oppose.
"Palace Mistress, Ruan Qianqian's betrayal is a huge matter that concerns the entire Cold Moon Palace. It requires all the Elders to make a joint decision!"
"Palace Lord, you can't be softhearted for a moment and cause harm for thousands of years!"
Ruan Qianqian glared furiously at Yan Yuanjia and the others. If it weren't for their seduction, her ambitions wouldn't have erupted even though she had them.
"Palace Lord, we think that what Elder Yan said makes sense."
Zuo Fanmei's two trusted aides also spoke. They hated Ruan Qianqian very much. If Zuo Fanmei fell, their days would be much more difficult than now.
"Bring her to the meeting hall."
"Inform all the elders!"
Zuo Fanmei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice. Although she was soft-hearted, she felt that what Yan Yuanjia said made sense.
He might be able to spare Ruan Qianqian's life, but he couldn't let her off so easily and let her leave using the teleportation array.
Not long after, the elders of Cold Moon Palace once again returned to the meeting hall. They felt a little strange, as the time was not yet the time that Zuo Fanmei had set.
"Elders, please show mercy."
"Master, please show mercy."
Ruan Qianqian knelt down and sobbed, "I was confused for a moment. Shizun, please spare my life."
Most of the elders were dumbfounded. What kind of situation was this? Ruan Qianqian was still fine before, and Zuo Fanmei even did her best to protect Ruan Qianqian.
"Elder Yan, please explain."
Zuo Fanmei closed her eyes after saying that.
Yan Yuanjia nodded and explained the situation to all the experts present. Of course, he concealed what he needed to conceal. Qin Yang did not appear in this plan.
It was Yan Yuanjia and the others who felt that there was a problem with Ruan Qianqian, so they tested Ruan Qianqian. In the end, Ruan Qianqian did not pass the test!
"Ruan Qianqian, are you worthy of the Palace Lord's nurturing and love?"
An old Elder shook his head and sighed. No matter what power one belonged to, such a betrayal was the most serious matter.
"Venomous heart, venomous heart!"
"Ruan Qianqian, how did a traitor like you appear in our Cold Moon Palace!?"
"Qin Yang said you weren't a good person, but we didn't believe him and even defended you. Who would have thought that you're really not a good person!"
"Palace Lord, according to the Palace rules, Ruan Qianqian should be executed by three thousand six hundred cuts!"
All the elders spoke one after another. No matter if they were defending Ruan Qianqian or opposing her, they were all very united now!
"Master, please spare my life."
"Master, I don't want to die!"
"Master, I was just confused for a moment. Please let me live, I beg you!"
Ruan Qianqian kept kowtowing until her forehead was bleeding.
Zuo Fanmei opened her eyes, and her eyes were filled with pain. She was the one who valued Ruan Qianqian the most, and now she was the one who felt the most heartache.
"Abolish her cultivation, take back all her treasures, and confiscate all her assets in the Palace."
"Inform the entire Palace that Ruan Qianqian is no longer the Holy Maiden of our Cold Moon Palace. Expel her from the Cold Moon Palace and let her fend for herself!"
Zuo Fanmei said in a low voice.
"Master, no, no!"
"Master, don't abolish my cultivation. I don't want anything else."
"Master, I beg you!"
Ruan Qianqian cried out in horror. It was not easy for her to reach her current cultivation of the Eighth Stage. If her cultivation was abolished, she would be a cripple!
If she still had her cultivation, it would be possible for her to join the Shi Clan or other forces. Without her cultivation and with her beautiful appearance, her future days would probably be very miserable.
An elder stood out and said in a low voice, "Palace Lord, I think this is inappropriate!"
"Yes, yes, Elder Ning is right. Master, I beg you to take back your order."
Ruan Qianqian seemed to have grasped at a life-saving straw.
Elder Ning, who stood out, looked at Ruan Qianqian with some disgust and said, "Palace Lord, Ruan Qianqian used to be the Holy Maiden of our Cold Moon Palace. She knows many of our Cold Moon Palace's secrets. If we let her go like this, some of our secrets might be leaked out!"
"Moreover, she used to be the Holy Maiden of our Cold Moon Palace. If she leaves like this, she will be defiled and our Cold Moon Palace's reputation will be damaged."
"My suggestion is that even if Palace Lord does not have the heart to kill her, you should still kill her as a warning to others."
Ruan Qianqian's face turned pale. The life-saving straw was actually a poisonous snake.
"Elder Ning is right."
"Palace Lord, I think Elder Ning is right."
"I agree with Elder Ning."
One by one, the elders in the Great Hall stood out to speak. Even those who supported Zuo Fanmei stood out to support the execution of Ruan Qianqian.
"Master, no, don't."
"Don't kill me. Put me under house arrest. Put me under house arrest for the rest of my life. Don't kill me."
Ruan Qianqian begged in despair.
Zuo Fanmei looked at Ruan Qianqian. She did not speak for five or six minutes. The rest of the people in the Great Hall also did not speak. Only Ruan Qianqian's begging could be heard.
"We'll do as you say."
"Ruan Qianqian conspired against the law. Behead her!"
"Elder Yan and the others have made a great contribution. Increase the sect's contribution points accordingly!"
Zuo Fanmei disappeared after she finished speaking.
"Master, no!"
Ruan Qianqian wailed in despair.
"Pu!"
An hour later, more than a hundred thousand people of Cold Moon Palace were gathered. In front of countless people, Ruan Qianqian's crime was announced and she was beheaded!
If the crime was lighter, it might just be a cup of poisoned wine. But for such a serious crime like Ruan Qianqian's, it was already Zuo Fanmei's mercy that she was not sentenced to death by a thousand cuts.
"Boss, Ruan Qianqian's reputation has been ruined and she has been publicly executed!"
Yan Yuanjia passed the news to Qin Yang.
"Understood."
Qin Yang's expression was indifferent.
When the plan was carried out smoothly, when Ruan Qianqian agreed to the plan, Qin Yang could basically predict Ruan Qianqian's ending!
"Ruan Qianqian actually betrayed us and was actually executed."
Shi Zhongyun also received the news very quickly. He had rushed over here an hour ago. He had come over to help Ruan Qianqian, to support her. In the end, he had just arrived here, and before Qin Yang could step out to pressure Cold Moon Palace again, Ruan Qianqian had actually been executed by Cold Moon Palace!
"How could this be!?"
Shi Zhongyun's expression was ugly. He was still thinking of supporting Ruan Qianqian to become the Palace Mistress and making Ruan Qianqian one of his women. That way, he would be able to secretly control Cold Moon Palace.
Now that Ruan Qianqian was dead, he could forget about Cold Moon Palace for the time being.
