Zhang Yunqing took a step back, his eyes fixed on the distance, the expression on his face was also unfathomable.

Zhang Huayue's smile froze on her face, and her eyes turned ruthless, "How can a guilty person live in this world?"

?

Zhang Yunqing frowned, and before she could react, a spiritual sword stabbed her chest.

"Qiang!"

A burst of spiritual sparks scattered in front of Zhang Yunqing.

"Junior sister! What are you doing!" The woman in red next to her reacted quickly and grabbed Zhang Huayue's hand holding the weapon.

Zhang Yunqing glanced at [- 0] next to him and brushed off his clothes. Is this kid stupid? He hit her like this in public.

She had also seen this woman in red, the talisman practitioner who fought with Qin Yuanming. She had a good character.

The disciples of the Shenxiao Sect nearby also reacted naturally, especially Hua Jing, who stretched out his arm with a solemn expression to block Zhang Yunqing from behind, and said in a cold voice, "We are treating Junior Sister Hua Yue as a guest of honor, not for you to hurt our disciples at will."

For a moment, all the disciples of Shenxiao Sect stood in front of Zhang Yunqing, facing the two disciples of Huanyue Sect opposite them.

Hua Jing was about to say something else, but suddenly realized something and looked back at Zhang Yunqing, "Junior sister, are you... okay?"

Zhang Huayue had used all her strength in that attack just now, even though she was only a low-level cultivator at the fourth stage of Qi Refining.

She also thought of the rumors about fake spiritual roots that seemed to have been circulating in the sect recently. She didn't believe it at first, but now she believes it about 80%.

Zhang Yunqing shook his head.

"I'm sorry, my junior sister may have been upset today. Please allow me to take her back first, and I will come to your house to apologize in person tomorrow." said the woman in red.

Hua Jing's tone slowed down a bit, "Senior Sister Lingyue, no matter what grudges the two had in the mortal world, now that they have each entered their own sect, there should be rules for what they say and do. Today, she committed a crime with a sword in public, and she should be sent to the Immortal Punishment Department. I hope Senior Sister Lingyue will not cover for her."

The red-dressed woman called Ling Yue took a deep breath and said, "I hope Junior Sister Hua Jing will show some mercy. We are willing to pay a large sum of money to compensate this junior sister."

"You said that I committed murder with a sword and should be sent to the Immortal Punishment Department, then why is this murderer still living happily in the Shenxiao Sect?" Zhang Huayue pointed at Zhang Yunqing and said word by word.

Hua Jing frowned immediately, "Who did she kill? When and where? Who is the witness? You have to have real evidence when you speak."

"She killed my mother more than half a year ago in the Zhang family's villa in Shangyang City. Everyone in the villa is a witness!"

It happened more than half a year ago, before the Immortal Cultivation Conference.

Zhang Yunqing frowned. Could it be that he got the script of the vicious female supporting role? He thought she was his enemy, but he didn't expect that she was actually the opposite?

She looked at the magnifying mirror and suddenly had an idea.

"Since you have designated me to kill your mother, then may I ask why I want to kill her?" Zhang Yunqing raised his eyebrows provocatively.

"You are..." Zhang Huayue was suddenly stuck and fell silent after a while.

Hua Jing naturally noticed something was wrong at this time. "In my opinion, why not sort out the grudges here today so that we can finally have a conclusion on what is right and what is wrong."

Although Ling Yue wanted to bring Zhang Huayue back, he also felt that the best solution was to talk out all the grudges and make a big thing small. Otherwise, both sides would suffer, and both the Shenxiao Sect and the Huanyue Sect would look bad.

Furthermore, Zhang Huayue is the master's new favorite disciple and must not be harmed in any way.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but persuade, "Hua Yue, tell us the whole story, and someone will make the decision for you."

Zhang Huayue lowered his head and his expression relaxed a little.

Zhang Yunqing sneered. It seemed that there was indeed something hidden here. She pulled Hua Jing's sleeve and said, "Senior Sister, I have an idea. We both know the grudge between us, but no matter which side speaks out, there will be some selfish concealment or lies. So... why don't we swear together with our Dao hearts to prove that everything we say is true."

Hua Jing looked at Zhang Yunqing with a complicated expression, "Junior sister, do you know the seriousness of swearing an oath with your Dao heart? Once you tell a lie, I'm afraid your career as a cultivator will end here."

"What's the harm as long as we don't lie? Aren't we avoiding lies?" Zhang Yunqing asked back.

Hua Jing thought about it and thought that this was true, but would it be too serious? But in the end, she nodded.

But Zhang Huayue's face turned paler and paler.

Zhang Yunqing raised three fingers. "I, Zhang Yunqing, swear by my Dao heart that if anyone deliberately conceals or lies in what I say next, my Dao heart will collapse, my foundation will be completely broken, and I will not die a good death!"

Wow! Everyone's eyes suddenly changed. This oath was really cruel...

Zhang Yunqing said he didn't feel anything. He said he didn't practice Taoism, so whether he had a heart for Taoism or not had no effect at all.

Then she raised her chin towards Zhang Huayue and said, "It's your turn."

Zhang Huayue looked at her viciously, but never made up his mind.

Ling Yue hugged Zhang Huayue and said, "Junior sister, you are the only disciple of Master. If this man really killed your mother, Master will take care of it for you."

Hearing this, Zhang Huayue couldn't help but take a deep breath. She was clearly a child of destiny, but with one sword strike she couldn't even hurt a hair of this fake spiritual root. But how could such a sinner live so carefree!

“Okay!” Zhang Huayue stepped forward. “I, Zhang Huayue, swear by my Dao heart that if I conceal or lie about what I am about to say, my Dao heart will collapse, my foundation will be completely broken, and I will die a miserable death!”

Zhang Yunqing lowered his eyes, hiding his expression, and said calmly, "Then just tell everyone the truth."

Zhang Huayue took a deep breath and said, "We are cousins. We were born in a wealthy family in Shangyang City, the Zhang family. My grandfather only had two sons, my father and Zhang Yunqing's father."

"When grandpa passed away, my father was traveling abroad. My father was looking for immortals everywhere to ask for the longevity pill."

"My grandfather passed away, and Zhang Yunqing's parents, who stayed at home, kicked my mother and me out of the Zhang family and made us live in another courtyard."

"They took over most of the property left by my grandfather, leaving only a separate courtyard for my mother and me."

"When my father came back, he had obtained the longevity elixir, but my grandfather was gone, and so was our home. We were driven out of the Zhang family like dogs that had lost their homes."

"Later, my father made some friends who were independent cultivators. They helped my father take back my grandfather's property. Zhang Yunqing's parents refused to hand over all the property, so they were forced to death."

"Because of this, Zhang Yunqing bore a grudge against us. One night, when everyone was off guard, she broke into the courtyard. She was going for my father, but my mother blocked her knife and was stabbed to death on the spot."

Zhang Huayue wiped away her tears and said, "That's it."

"There's more." Zhang Yunqing pointed to his left chest.

Zhang Huayue said reluctantly, "Zhang Yunqing killed my mother, so I couldn't let her go. The day before the Immortal Cultivator Conference, I saw her hanging around, so I followed her and stabbed her. I thought she was in a vital spot, but she didn't die."
