Immortal, save me!

A vague androgynous voice suddenly said, "What a boastful thing for a little human!"

Voices rang out from all directions, pressing down on her with unparalleled pressure. The voices kept echoing in her mind, causing her brain to go blank and her head to split.

The space in the dream seemed to be stagnant, the air was squeezing and distorting towards her, and the whole world seemed to be about to collapse.

Chu Xueying gritted her teeth and said with difficulty: "Do you agree?"

After a while, Tiandao's voice sounded: "What do you want?"

The pressure disappeared, and Chu Xueying relaxed. She said gently, "You want to kill those two people from the Xuanling Secret Realm. I can do it, but I need your help."

"My strength is only at the Golden Core level. I can't even kill Luo Jin, let alone Mo Yin."

"So, I need to rely on your strength, not only for me, but also for your purpose to proceed smoothly."

There was a fire in her eyes, so bright that it was shocking.

"This is an equal exchange. You use my power and don't hinder my actions. I will do whatever you want for you."

There was silence all around for a moment, and only the voice of Tian Dao sounded: "Yes."

Chu Xueying didn't expect it to agree to cooperate so quickly, but her goal was achieved, so she no longer considered anything else.

……

The investigation into the poisoning of Tianyan Sect's disciples took three days. I don't know if the person behind the plot was too cunning and sophisticated, or if he found something extraordinary, which caused the matter to be delayed until the third day.

Luo Jin has been practicing in his room for the past two days. There are people guarding outside and no one comes to disturb him.

As the saying goes, "A passing goose leaves traces behind." He believes that as long as something happens, it will leave traces behind. It just depends on whether the person tracking it is willing to discover it.

With the ability of Tianyan Sect, there has been no result after three days of investigation. Luo Jin always feels that the person behind this incident is not ordinary, so the crime of murdering Tianyan Sect disciples is likely to be pinned on him.

This is indeed the case. After three days of investigation, the matter has already had a clear direction, but they chose to stop halfway.

What they found out was that this matter was related to the Yang family. The scattered spirit powder came from the Yang family. As to whether the real person who did it was a member of the Yang family, they could not make a conclusion yet, but what was certain was that Luo Jin did not do it.

However, since the matter involved the Yang family, the truth could not be investigated further. After all, the Tianyan Sect had close ties with several major immortal cultivation families since its inception.

The Yang family and the Tianyan Sect share the same honor and disgrace, so this matter must not have been done by a member of the Yang family.

Then someone must be found to take on this responsibility, and Luo Jin, a powerless young man from the Xuanling Secret Realm, is the most suitable person.

His cultivation level is only the Golden Core stage, and his companions have good cultivation levels but are not around. Although he has a relationship with Wen Junyao, Wen Junyao is a major party to the shocking scandal of the Tianyan Sect and cannot protect himself.

If it weren't for Wang Youyin, Wen Junyao would have been stripped of his cultivation and expelled from the Tianyan Sect long ago.

Although the direct descendants of several major families are related to Luo Jin, they are just nodding acquaintances and the relationship is not deep. Therefore, there is no need to worry about those immortal cultivation families when handling this matter.

It is too easy to kill a helpless outsider, but the Tianyan Sect values ​​its reputation, so Luo Jin must be thoroughly convicted of this crime, preferably without any evidence.

Therefore, Luo Jin must die!

That night, Luo Jin was captured and forcibly taken to the Law Enforcement Hall.

In the lobby, Elder Yan and several other elders sat at the top, with dozens of law enforcement team disciples guarding on both sides. Not far away, the victimized disciples whose cultivation levels had declined stood together, glaring at Luo Jin with indignation.

Luo Jin looked around and realized that they were here to convict him.

He pursed his lips tightly and looked coldly at the elders above him.

Yan Pei's dignified voice sounded: "Luo Jin, the investigation results of this matter have come out. The crime of murdering Tianyan Sect disciples should be punished by death. Considering that you are from an outsider and did not harm the lives of disciples, I will give you a chance."

Luo Jin didn't think they would be so kind, so she asked, "What opportunity?"

Yan Pei: "As long as you admit that you murdered the disciples of Tianyan Sect, you can be spared the death penalty."

When the disciples whose cultivation had declined heard Yan Pei say this, their hearts skipped a beat and they looked at him in disbelief.

When they received the news and rushed to the Law Enforcement Hall, they were full of expectations, thinking that the sect would take charge of the matter and severely punish the murderer. However, they did not expect that Elder Yan would actually say that he would give the other party a chance.

If that's the case, then why are they here? To witness the murderer being forgiven?!

Everyone was angry, but due to Yan Pei's authority, they did not dare to question him in the classroom and could only discuss it below.

Yan Pei glanced at them, slapped his palm on the table, and shouted, "Quiet!"

The hall suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.

Luo Jin laughed: "Exempt me from the death penalty? Does that mean that as long as I am willing to take the blame, I can leave?"

Everyone was puzzled by Luo Jin's statement. What did it mean to "take on this crime"?

Yan Pei: "You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. You have harmed dozens of my disciples, and you need to give them an explanation. Therefore, after you admit the fact of murdering my disciples, you only need to be whipped by the Ring Spirit 100 times, and the matter will be considered over."

When the disciples heard that Luo Jin was pardoned from death, they were all indignant, but under Yan Pei's tyranny they dared not speak out and were filled with resentment.

But after hearing about the one hundred Ringwraith Whips, they calmed down instead, because the Ringwraith Whips were the nightmare of all Tianyan Sect disciples.

The Ringwraith Whip has been nourished with spiritual energy since its birth, which contains the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Stage. It is used as a tool to punish disciples. Being whipped by one hundred Ringwraiths is equivalent to being beaten by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Disciples who have been subjected to this punishment and whose strength is not up to the Nascent Soul stage will undoubtedly die. Even if they survive by chance, they will still die without timely medicine and treatment.

Luo Jin's cultivation was at the Golden Core stage, and being whipped by a hundred Ring Spirits was no different from dying directly.

Luo Jin sneered: "Are you kidding? Why should I admit to something I didn't do?!"

"Since you said the results are out, let me see what the so-called evidence is!"

A group of hypocritical guys, who speak righteously but are actually black-hearted, force him to be charged with a crime and force him to choose between the two?

What’s the difference between one dying directly and the other dying in torture?

No matter which of these two options you choose, the outcome will be death.

Yan Pei ordered the law enforcement team to bring up witnesses and physical evidence.

The witness was a young woman with a pretty face. She stood in the court with her head lowered and timid, her hands tightly clutching her handkerchief, and her body was even shaking.

It just looks familiar.

A disciple from the law enforcement team next to the woman was holding a tray with several letters and some medicine packets on it.

Luo Jin squinted his eyes and looked at the woman, and finally remembered why he felt that the woman looked familiar.
