The most powerful evidence
Chu Xingyun could feel the coldness in Qiu Zhen's voice.
He was very sure that as long as he disobeyed in the slightest, the other party would definitely attack without mercy.
"Looks like this matter isn't simple." Chu Xingyun suddenly understood why Lu Ling and the rest were panicking, but his expression was still calm. After lightly nodding his head, he followed Qiu Zhen towards the Law Enforcement Hall.
The journey from the Sword Master Peak to the Law Enforcement Hall wasn't far.
When Chu Xingyun arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall, there were already figures floating in the air outside. There were probably close to ten thousand people, and all of them were looking at him with astonishment.
After stepping into the Law Enforcement Hall, the atmosphere inside was similarly stiff.
There were quite a few elders and deacons from both the inner and outer sects. They all stood at the edge of the hall, and in the center, the seventeen Sword Masters were all present. Every single one of them was sitting upright.
At the head of the table, Fan Wujie was sitting with his eyes closed.
When Chu Xingyun entered the Law Enforcement Hall, his eyes slowly opened. There was no longer the friendliness of the past. There was only discipline, justice, and no emotion.
"Reporting to Pavilion Master, Luo Yun is here!" Qiu Zhen walked in front of Fan Wujie and knelt down on one knee.
Fan Wujie casually waved his hand, and Qiu Zhen immediately retreated and returned to his seat.
Suddenly, the seven Sword Masters of the Law Enforcement Faction stood up at the same time. With Fan Wuchen in the lead, their bodies emitted a cold aura that swept through the entire hall, causing the atmosphere to become even heavier.
"Luo Yun, do you know why I summoned you to the Law Enforcement Hall?" Fan Wujie spoke with a solemn voice, causing everyone present to hold their breaths, not daring to disturb him.
"I heard that last night, the Shadow Swordsman attacked again and killed a person at the second layer of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. Today, when the sun rose, Pavilion Master personally sent someone to summon me to the Law Enforcement Hall. I'm sure that there are people who think that I'm the Shadow Swordsman and want to punish me!"
As he spoke, Chu Xingyun looked at Qin Qiumo. The anger and hatred on Qin Qiumo's face said it all.
"A few days ago, I said in front of everyone that if you suspect that I am the Shadow Swordsman, then please show me proof. If you don't have proof, then everything is just nonsense. Everyone should be clear about this, right?"
Chu Xingyun's eyes gradually turned cold. Just as he finished speaking, Qin Qiumo coldly snorted and angrily said, "Luo Yun, I already have the key evidence. Don't you dare act so arrogantly today!"
"Really?"
Chu Xingyun was still not afraid. He crossed his arms and looked at Qin Qiumo with a mocking expression. He wanted to see what Qin Qiumo had up his sleeve.
Humph!
Qin Qiumo snorted again. He waved his arm and shouted, "Bring the corpse up!"
At this moment, the side door of the Law Enforcement Hall opened. Two disciples of the Wanjian Pavilion carried a wooden frame and slowly walked out. On top of the wooden frame lay a cold corpse.
The owner of the corpse was a tall and thin young man. His death was extremely hideous. His lower abdomen had been pierced through, and his body was covered in countless wounds. Moreover, his arms had been forcefully chopped off, and his broken bones were exposed to the air just like that.
Such a death was even more tragic than any of the previous victims!
When Chu Xingyun saw the corpse, he immediately frowned and let out a soft sound of surprise.
However, what surprised him wasn't the state of this person's death.
He discovered that there was a thick remnant of Sword Intent of Darkness on this corpse. It was very clear and could be seen with a single glance.
"Are you feeling guilty?"
When Qin Qiumo saw the change in Chu Xingyun's expression, he laughed sinisterly. He looked in the direction of Fan Wujie and said loudly, "This disciple is called Qin Xianjun. He is an elite disciple of the Qin Clan. Last night, he was killed by the Dark Swordsman and died in the courtyard. His body was only discovered today."
"Just like before, Qin Xianjun's death was tragic. However, the wounds on his body were tainted with thick Dark Force. In my opinion, this Dark Force must have been left behind by the Dark Swordsman!"
When Qin Qiumo said this, his gaze immediately shifted. He glared fiercely at Chu Xingyun and said, "When I discovered this Dark Force, I felt that it was extremely familiar. After pondering for a while, I suddenly remembered that day in the outer sect, Sword Master Luo Yun wielded a heavy sword and killed several elders and deacons with a single strike. His might shook the entire Wanjian Pavilion."
"At that time, the Dark Force that he exuded was also Dark Force!"
"This Dark Force is very special and rare. In the Wanjian Pavilion, besides Sword Master Luo Yun, no one else can grasp the essence of this Dark Force. The Dark Swordsman who killed Qin Xianjun also has Dark Force. Is this a coincidence?" Chang Chixiao also spoke. He looked coldly at Chu Xingyun and supported Qin Qiumo.
Qin Qiumo also sneered, but his eyes were ferocious. He shouted, "Based on my many years of experience, I'm afraid this is not a coincidence. It's most likely that after Luo Yun knew of the Dark Swordsman's existence, he secretly disguised himself as the Dark Swordsman to vent his hatred for the Qin and Chang Clans. On the surface, he pretended to know nothing in an attempt to confuse others."
"After all, the Dark Force remaining in Qin Xianjun's body is the most powerful evidence. It can prove that the mastermind behind the many killings of the Wanjian Pavilion's disciples during this period is Luo Yun!"
As he spoke, Qin Qiumo had already called Chu Xingyun by his name. In essence, he regarded Chu Xingyun as the mastermind behind the scenes and was no longer qualified to be the Sword Master. He wanted to immediately suppress or even kill him to get rid of this thorn in his side.
"As far as I know, Sword Master Luo Yun does control this Dark Force. However, it is a little hasty to conclude that he is the mastermind based on this Dark Force." Yun Changqing stood up and bowed to Fan Wujie.
"Before this, when the Shadow Swordsman killed people, he did not leave any Dark Force behind. This shows that this Shadow Swordsman is not the Shadow Swordsman from before. He must be someone else in disguise. Therefore, the mastermind must have only entered the Wanjian Pavilion recently."
Chang Chixiao was already prepared. His voice was calm and composed. He smiled and said, "He recently joined the Wanjian Pavilion, controlled the Dark Force, had a grudge with the Qin and Chang Clans, and was able to kill people in the second layer of the Heavenly Spirit Layer. Who else could fit these three conditions besides Luo Yun?"
"Sword Master Changqing, you still want to protect Luo Yun at this time. Could it be that you are also involved in this matter?"
Qi Yangchen stood up and said in a mocking tone, "Or could it be that this matter is a shocking conspiracy of your Technique Imparting Lineage? You want to make the Wanjian Pavilion fall apart and fall into eternal damnation?"
With that, the expressions of Yun Changqing and the others changed.
They suddenly stood up, but before they could say a word, they felt an extremely terrifying aura descend. It pressed down on them to the point that they found it hard to breathe.
The crowd looked over and found that Fan Wu Jie, who had been sitting in the main seat, had already stood up. His aura was slowly rising. While suppressing the void, he had also completely locked onto Chu Xingyun.
