Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

Seventeen days later, the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms.

From the outside, the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms appeared no different from before the great battle.

But as soon as Yuemingxi returned, she sensed that something was amiss in the palace.

Many formations had been destroyed.

Many core formations were no longer functioning, and although the Palace Defense Formation was still operational, its defensive power had clearly decreased.

Above the entire Palace of Ten Thousand Realms, there lingered an indelible sense of sorrow and resentment.

"What exactly happened here?"

Yuemingxi walked forward, and the two attendants outside the palace stared at her with wide eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Palace...Palace Master?"

"Yes, it's me. What happened to the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms? Where are Palace Master Shao and Senior Qiu?"

"Palace Master, after you left that day..."

The attendants earnestly recounted everything that had happened after Yuemingxi's departure.

From Song Qingtian's arrival with another mysterious Dao Realm expert, to Yuan Xiner leaving the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms with the help of Qiu Wangyue and Shao Pingtian, to Qiu Wangyue risking her life to attack Song Qingtian, they recounted everything in detail.

"By the way, Palace Master, what about General Yuan and General Xiao?"

Inside the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms, Yuan Xiner and Xiao Feng held the positions of generals, responsible for leading the palace's battles.

"They...have some matters to attend to."

Yuemingxi still did not reveal the contents of what "Ye Han" had said to these two attendants.

The fact that Yuan Xiner and Xiao Feng fought each other to the point of mutual destruction was truly unimaginable.

She didn't want to entertain conspiracy theories; perhaps there were hidden circumstances involved.

However, Yuemingxi didn't doubt that the other party was lying, because "Ye Han" had behaved very normally, just like an ordinary cultivator in the mortal realm.

Her peach blossom eyes were filled with sorrow, and Yuemingxi couldn't understand why she had completely changed after attending the Conference of Ceasefire just once.

Shao Pingtian and Qiu Wangyue were still chasing after Song Qingtian, and wherever they went, there was bound to be bloodshed.

Xiao Feng and Yuan Xiner seemed to have fought each other to the point of mutual destruction, but Yuemingxi had searched for a long time in the mortal realm and couldn't find their bodies.

For a moment, she felt that all the burdens had fallen on her shoulders.

"You continue to guard here. If there's any situation, inform me."

"Yes!"

Yuemingxi walked on the familiar path of the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms, and the disciples she encountered along the way greeted her with surprise.

But from their expressions, it quickly became apparent that their excitement had turned into desolation.

The previous great battle had left the disciples of the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms in a state of panic, and Yuemingxi, as the Palace Master, did not have enough prestige to become their spiritual support.

Soon, several saints appeared in front of Yuemingxi.

"Greetings, Palace Master!"

"Yes, gather the saints who are still in the Immortal Domain. I want to get a general understanding of the situation in the palace."

Although she had already roughly understood the recent situation through the attendants at the entrance.

But the saints knew more information.

In a short while, all the saints of the Palace of Ten Thousand Realms gathered in the council chamber.

Yuemingxi saw that the aura of some of the saints was in disarray, indicating that they had been injured when Song Qingtian attacked.

They no longer had their former imposing manner, but sat lifelessly in their chairs.

Some people's foundations had been destroyed and could no longer make progress.

Some people's cultivation even regressed, never to recover.

They stared at the Moonlit River, their eyes filled with various emotions.

Some were filled with naked hatred, some were too complicated to explain, and some were simply helpless.

"I'm sorry, it's because of me that the Wanjie Palace has suffered this calamity..."

Watching this scene, Moonlit River's eyes turned red, overwhelmed with guilt.

She bowed and apologized, but not everyone accepted her apology.

"So, you finally admit that it's your fault, Moonlit River. If it weren't for you, the Wanjie Palace wouldn't be in this state!"

A saint whose foundation was damaged couldn't help but slam the table, glaring at Moonlit River in anger.

He had great respect for Shao Pingtian, so no matter what decision Shao Pingtian made, he would fully support it.

But he didn't think it was the right choice to make Moonlit River the palace lord of the Wanjie Palace.

Not to mention that Moonlit River had become enemies with the Qingtian Divine Dynasty.

His damaged foundation amplified his dissatisfaction and resentment.

Now that Shao Pingtian was not here, he let out all his resentment.

"That's right! If it weren't for you, Shao Palace Lord wouldn't have made such a decision."

"It's so unwise to be enemies with the Qingtian Divine Dynasty."

"When Shao Palace Lord returns, I will definitely propose to select a suitable palace lord again!"

"You are not worthy of being the palace lord of the Wanjie Palace!"

Various criticisms were directed at Moonlit River.

Some people wanted to defend Moonlit River, but their voices were quickly drowned out by criticism and questioning.

Moonlit River stood in front of the saints, silent, allowing all kinds of malice to be directed at her.

But in her eyes, there was an unwavering determination.

She couldn't be a little girl anymore, she absolutely couldn't be crushed by such malice.

So even if she felt uncomfortable in her heart, she absolutely couldn't show it.

"Alright, that's enough! Moon Palace Lord doesn't want things to escalate to this point either. When did the Wanjie Palace become a place where we blame others when something goes wrong?"

Just as Moonlit River was determined to let them vent their anger, an unexpected figure stood up.

Jiang Qingsnow.

In Moonlit River's impression, this was someone who had been very eager for the position of palace lord.

But after Shao Pingtian appointed her as the palace lord, Jiang Qingsnow became low-key.

No matter what happened, she didn't show much enthusiasm.

Even the people who used to be under her gradually turned to others.

But when others tried to compete with her, she would decisively take action.

Every time she acted, she tried to eliminate all threats.

Even the corpses were hard to find.

"Regardless, we have already become enemies with the Qingtian Divine Dynasty. Are you sure you want to blame our own people before the crisis is resolved? I support holding Moon Palace Lord accountable, but at least wait until this matter is over," Jiang Qingsnow's beautiful eyes swept across the crowd, "And... please remember, Moon Palace Lord is still our palace lord for now."

Her clear voice resounded, earning Moonlit River a grateful look.

The saints fell silent under her words.

First, they had just vented their anger, and now they saw that Moonlit River's anger was not as intense as before.

Second, Jiang Qingsnow was the first person to stand up when they were confused, and she had played a significant role in reorganizing the Wanjie Palace in the past few days, so she had some prestige.

Of course, the most important thing was that Jiang Qingsnow was unharmed when Song Qingtian attacked.

In terms of combat power, she was now at the forefront of the Wanjie Palace.

"Palace Lord, please give the order."
