Fan Wujie's suspicions
Looking at the shattered jade sword, the crowd fell silent.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo were dead. It was so sudden that no one expected it to happen.
The ones who were most shocked were Yun Changqing and Tang Yunhuan.
In Saint Star City, they had seen Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had died silently. If they calculated the time, wouldn't the two of them have died within these two days?
Yun Changqing gasped. He raised his head to look at Fan Wujie, only to see that the latter's expression was extremely ugly. His gloomy eyes seemed to be deep in thought as they flickered with light.
"Pavilion Master …" Yun Changqing said resentfully. However, before he could say anything, Fan Wujie waved his hand and interrupted him. "You don't have to say anything about this!"
His voice was so cold that it made Yun Changqing shudder. Fan Wujie took a step forward and said coldly, "Where is the Blood Mage Team?"
After that, the entire place fell silent. Then, more than ten blood-robed figures appeared and knelt before Fan Wujie on one knee. Lu Xing was among them.
"Pass down my order. The Enforcers are to move out and lock down the entire Wanjian Pavilion immediately!"
Fan Wujie's voice was forceful and resounding. Everyone present could hear it clearly. They were all puzzled as they didn't know what Fan Wujie meant.
However, Fan Wujie didn't explain. He continued, "As for the Blood Mage Team, lock down the Swordmaster Peak where Luo Yun is. Anyone who is related to Luo Yun, regardless of who they are, will be arrested on the spot and escorted to the Myriad Swords Palace!"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, the crowd's gaze froze. Fan Wujie had ordered the Blood Mage Team to lock down the Swordmaster Peak where Chu Xingyun was and arrest everyone?
"What are you waiting for? Are you going to disobey my orders?" Seeing that the crowd had fallen into a daze, Fan Wujie shouted again. His voice exploded like thunder, causing everyone's hearts to tremble.
They could all sense that Fan Wujie's words were not a joke. His words were filled with determination, and even contained a trace of cold anger.
Immediately, the crowd didn't dare to make a sound, and their figures flashed out in all directions.
Seeing the blood-robed figure leave, Yun Changqing also felt that something was amiss. He said to Fan Wujie in a deep voice, "Pavilion Master, are you suspecting Sword Master Luo Yun?"
After these words were spoken, the gazes of everyone turned to Fan Wujie. Clearly, they also had doubts in their hearts.
"Does Sword Master Chang Qing think that I shouldn't suspect Luo Yun?" Fan Wujie's eyes were dull. When he answered Yun Changqing, there was a trace of coldness in his voice.
He sneered and said, "Luo Yun has always hated Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo. I'm sure everyone knows about this. After leaving the Ancient Star Mystery Dimension, Luo Yun's strength increased greatly. At the same time, the evil aura on his body became even stronger. Even when facing me, he dared to ignore me."
"Therefore, when Luo Yun knew that I had left Saint Star City, he couldn't hold back his killing intent. He took advantage of the night to kill Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo to vent his anger."
"Because of this, when he was preparing to leave Saint Star City, whenever Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo were mentioned, he would be so cold. He even found an excuse to leave the group and was unwilling to return to Wanjian Pavilion."
"As for Baili Kuangsheng, he was once indebted to Luo Yun. When he found out about this, because he was indebted to Luo Yun for saving his life, he didn't want to expose it on the spot. Therefore, he used cultivation as an excuse to not return to Wanjian Pavilion."
Fan Wujie's words were so precise that no one could refute them. In fact, many people secretly nodded in agreement.
The deaths of Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo were very bizarre. The sudden departure of Chu Xingyun and Baili Kuangsheng was also very confusing. However, when they connected the dots, it made sense.
"Pavilion master, sword master Luo Yun became the champion of the Great Sect Competition and brought endless glory to Wanjian Pavilion. Right now, he still hasn't returned, so it doesn't seem appropriate for us to have so many suspicions." Lei Yuanguang stood out. He was clearly displeased.
"There are still many suspicious points about this matter. Why don't we discuss it when sword master Luo Yun returns?" Tang Yunhuan spoke as well. Her brows were tightly furrowed. She clearly disagreed with Fan Wujie's actions.
"Luo Yun is a member of the Cultivation Transmission Lineage, so you'll naturally side with him. In my opinion, the Cultivation Transmission Lineage should avoid this matter so as to not disturb the pavilion master's judgment." A sharp and unkind voice rang out from Qi Yang Chen's mouth. His face was filled with mockery.
"Qi Yangchen, you didn't go to Saint Star City, so you don't understand the entire matter. What right do you have to speak?" Yun Changqing sneered. "Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo are dead. Your Internal Affairs Lineage will be in chaos. I advise you to focus on the Internal Affairs Lineage and stop thinking about slandering others."
Qi Yangchen's expression changed when he heard Yun Changqing's words. He wasn't the only one. The other sword masters of the Internal Affairs Lineage also had unnatural gazes. They could faintly sense a hint of mockery.
Just as the two sides were about to argue, a sharp and majestic aura suddenly bloomed. It descended from the sky and pressed down on everyone, causing them to stop talking.
Fan Wujie coldly swept his gaze over and shouted, "Sword masters, you actually dare to mock and abuse Luo Yun in front of everyone. What a scandal! I have my own decision on this matter. There's no need for you to interfere!"
"Yes." Sensing Fan Wujie's anger, the crowd didn't dare to say anything. They all bowed in response.
"However …"
Suddenly, Fan Wujie spoke again. He coldly looked at Yun Changqing, Tang Yunhuan, and the others. He said seriously, "Sword Master Yangchen's words are reasonable. Luo Yun is a member of the Cultivation Lineage, and all of you have a deep relationship with Luo Yun. Thus, before this matter is settled, none of you are allowed to participate."
As soon as he finished speaking, the four Sword Masters held their breaths. From Fan Wu Jie's words, they actually felt a sense of alienation. Although it was vague, they could clearly feel it.
Without waiting for them to refute, Fan Wujie continued, "During this period of time, Wanjian Pavilion needs to be properly reorganized. The specific matters will be handled by your Cultivation Lineage. As for the rest, follow me to the Myriad Sword Hall."
With that, Fan Wujie withdrew his gaze and directly left the place. He flew in the direction of the Myriad Sword Hall. The others didn't dare to slack off and immediately followed.
