Ye Qingtang's words struck Lu Xiuwen's mind like a bolt of lightning.
Lu Xiuwen raised his head in disbelief and glared at Ye Qingtang, who said such shocking words. His eyes were filled with hatred as if he wanted to swallow her alive.
The Shangyue Fire Tripod was hidden in his dormitory. If Ye Qingtang asked the warden to search now, wouldn't that be …
Cold sweat broke out on Lu Xiuwen's forehead, and his previous feeling of being lucky disappeared instantly.
Once the Shangyue Fire Tripod was found in his room, it would not be as simple as fifty strokes of the rod. He would probably never be able to step into Xuanling Sect ever again!
At this moment, Lu Xiuwen finally realized what Ye Qingtang was thinking when she said those words previously.
She seemed to be clearing his name on the surface, but in reality, she was inviting him into a trap. Step by step, she lured him to limit the range of the true culprit to the disciples who participated in this mission.
He could not keep the Shangyue Fire Tripod, and he simply endured these fifty strokes of the rod for nothing!
Lu Xiuwen had never hated someone so much. Now, he really wanted to tear Ye Qingtang into pieces!
"I will immediately send someone to investigate this matter. Today's matter will end like this for now. If the true culprit is found, he will definitely be severely punished," the warden said.
After watching the farce for a long time, the disciples were already shocked by the bloody fifty strokes of the rod to the point that they did not dare to say anything and quickly dispersed.
Lu Xiuwen was dragged back by a few disciples. Before he left, he looked at Ye Qingtang with resentment as if he was soaked in poisonous water.
Ye Qingtang completely ignored Lu Xiuwen and directly walked to Yun Shu's side to support him.
"Junior Sister Ye …" Yun Shu held Ye Qingtang's wrist tightly, and his eyes were filled with agitation. He was very clear that if Ye Qingtang did not appear in time, not only would he not be able to punish Lu Xiuwen, but he would also be accused of slandering a fellow disciple.
Ye Qingtang smiled. Because there were others present, she did not say much and only supported Yun Shu to leave.
After leaving the Disciplinary Hall, Yun Shu could not hide the gratitude in his heart.
"Junior Sister Ye, thank you for lending a helping hand today. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid …"
Ye Qingtang shook her head. "Senior Brother Yun, you don't have to thank me. I am very clear about what Lu Xiuwen did. It's a pity that there is no conclusive evidence, and the warden cannot convict him. I can only use my wits to help you temporarily relieve the hatred in your heart."
Yun Shu smiled bitterly. "I really did not expect Lu Xiuwen to have such wild ambitions. It's also my fault for not being able to see through him. But … where did you pick up the sword that you took out previously? I have never seen Lu Xiuwen use it before. "
Ye Qingtang scanned the surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, she said softly, "I didn't pick up that sword. I stole it from Lu Xiuwen's room before I went to the Disciplinary Hall. "
Yun Shu was stunned when she heard that.
"Steal … steal?"
Ye Qingtang nodded. "Lu Xiuwen definitely has a certain level of confidence to dare to attack you. I know that you can't defeat him in the Disciplinary Hall, so I made a trip to his room. Even the blood on the sword was smeared on your blood-stained clothes." Ye Qingtang nodded.
