Chapter 881: Confrontation

y Da Shan last year and haven't recovered yet. The money you gave us barely kept us from starving. We truly have no food stores left."To put it simply, there's no food for you.Song Dachuan said he was...The ripples were taken out of Si Gu Cliff by the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall. At the moment of leaving, the surrounding spiritual energy surged towards her, eagerly drilling into her body. She almost advanced to the next level right then and there, but luckily she reacted quickly and immediately pinched a formula, which dispersed the surrounding spiritual energy.

The core was mainly changed, and the powerful divine consciousness of Ripples naturally attracted the surrounding spiritual energy.

The abnormalities on the ripples did not attract the attention of the two law enforcement disciples. It's common for cultivators who just leave Si Gou Cliff to experience such things.

The spiritual energy of this sect is quite abundant. From a place devoid of spiritual energy to one brimming with it, your pores will instantly open to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.

Within a minute, all the parties involved arrived.

Yun Ru Bin wore an expression of righteous indignation, his gaze swept over Lian Yi with a look of disappointment. He then turned his eyes to Du Le Le, whose face was pale and who was wearing the sect uniform, his eyes filled with pity.

Joe Qian Shan looked at his daughter's expression, which was still alright. However, he noticed the coldness in her eldest brother's eyes. There was no longer the warmth and fondness from before. He sighed inwardly; this time, he had let his daughter suffer a grievance.

The main hall was extremely silent. Even when the elders communicated, they used divine sense transmission, never speaking aloud.

Joe Qiangshan gave a light cough before speaking,

"Yun Ru Bin, you said that the newly promoted inner disciple Du LeLe's foundation establishment failed and her cultivation regressed because Qiao LianYi tampered with her during her advancement. Do you have any evidence"

Yun Ruibin's expression tightened. He could tell that although his master spoke in a calm tone and acted as if he treated everyone equally, he was actually angry, and the target of his anger was him.

"Master, before Du Ledu established her foundation, her cave dwelling was buried with a Spirit Dispersion Array."

"Ru Bin, as my nephew, the Execution Hall has already investigated this matter. Du Le's foundation-building cave abode does not have a dispersing spirit array. Instead, it has two layers of gathering spirit arrays stacked on top of each other."

Elder Xiao of the Execution Hall said calmly.

This

Yun Ru Bin frowned, he felt that the Enforcement Hall was protecting Qiao Lian Yi.

“When you accused Qiao Lianyi of harming her fellow disciples, that cave dwelling was sealed. When we investigated, it wasn't just the Enforcement Hall. You don't have to suspect that I'm covering for Qiao Lianyi. The previous grounding was also due to a lack of direct evidence. We can't simply convict Qiao Lianyi based on your one-sided account.”

"Ru Bin, do you have any other evidence"

Master Qiao asked faintly.

Yun Ru Bin could only shake his head. He wanted to suggest searching the soul, but he didn't dare. When he mentioned it in front of the acting sect leader before, the other party’s eyes looked strange. Now, in front of his master, he dared not even speak of it.

The ripples, who had always remained silent, finally spoke up.

"I, Qiao Lianyi, hereby swear an oath under Heaven's mandate. Du Liudao's cultivation regress was not caused by me, nor did I harm him in any way. If what I say is false, may my Dao heart become unstable and I be struck dead by lightning on the spot, forever barred from the path of the Great Dao."

The moment the ripples spoke, the rules of heaven descended. Everyone present sensed it and turned their gazes to Ripples.

Lian Yi's waist was straight, standing tall in the main hall. Her expression was resolute, not a shred of fear on her face. Moreover, nothing seemed amiss with her, which indirectly proved her innocence.

Only Du Le lowered her head, but inwardly she was gnashing her teeth in hatred. The other party's oath was indeed well-timed because she had only failed to build a foundation, and the regression of her cultivation was caused by her own self-destruction of qi. Heaven would naturally not stand on her side.

Yun Ru Bin was stunned for a moment, and then he knew something was wrong. He wanted to make amends, but how could Lian Yi give him the chance Her clear voice echoed through the entire hall.

"Master, elders, although I am the Master's daughter, I ask myself if I have ever done anything harmful to my fellow disciples. Senior Brother's accusation against me is too serious, so serious that I find it hard to accept."

Over this past month at Si Gu Cliff, I've thought a great deal. Perhaps some of my actions sent the wrong signals to Senior Brother, making him think I would hurt his beloved's heart. So today, I want to make everything clear once and for all, to prevent any future misunderstandings or problems. I don't want Senior Brother to blame me for anything that happens.

Ripples, I

Yun Ruibin sensed something was amiss and immediately wore a helpless expression. He tried to speak, but Lianyi stopped him with a wave of her hand.

Although I am the Sect Master's daughter and outwardly appear to have a glamorous life, my father is devoted to the sect and has no time to discipline me. My eldest brother takes care of everything for me, from food and shelter to cultivation. He is very attentive, and I am very attached to him. Everyone knows this.

"My father had also mentioned that in the future, he would like me to become a partner with my eldest brother. My eldest brother didn't refuse at the time."

After Liàn Yī finished speaking, she looked at Yún Rú Bīn. The other party immediately said:

"Master, elders, at the time, I was still young and didn't know if I was suitable for my junior sister, so I declined."

Joe, the Sect Master, nodded his head, indicating that Yun Ruibin was right.

...Ripple didn't deny this, then she continued:

"My elder brother didn't agree, but I didn't know. I was so sure that I would be his future Dao companion, so I became even more attached to him."

But not long after, I discovered that my senior brother and the newly inducted inner disciple, Du Li, were getting very close. To be honest, I was unhappy. Why was my senior brother so kind to Du Li, more patient with him than with me I am his future Dao partner after all.

So I found a disciple from the inner sect, tripped her up and made her cultivation go awry. I gave her tasks that were dirty, tiring, and paid very little.

Lian Yi spoke frankly about what she had done. Even Du Li looked up at Lian Yi, but Yun Ru Bin felt a little uneasy.

In the end, things were discovered by my eldest brother, who scolded me for it. He said I shouldn't have targeted Du Shishu like that. It was then that I realized my eldest brother didn't intend to form a Daoist partnership with me. He liked and admired someone like Du Lele.

I'm really angry and don't understand. I can't figure out how I, the daughter of the sect leader, could possibly be worse than Du Lelai

Later, some senior sisters from the sect advised me. They said that Big Brother doesn't like me has nothing to do with whether or not I'm the sect leader's daughter. He simply just doesn't like me as a person, or maybe he saw me as his little sister from the beginning.

Since then, I never brought up the matter with Du again. After all, I also have my own pride. Afterwards, I didn't pester Senior Brother anymore and just stayed in my cave dwelling to cultivate until someone from the Law Enforcement Hall came looking for me."

Everyone in the hall fell silent, listening to Lian Yi's words and understanding her little daughter's thoughts. They knew Lian Yi also had her own pride.

"Big brother, am I right"

Ripple stared straight at Yun Ruibin, making the other party's scalp tingle. Finally, he nodded because ever since he had reprimanded his junior sister, Ripple had never pestered him again and hadn't gotten anyone to target Du Lele.

"Since that's the case, why did Senior Brother suspect me without asking any questions after what happened to Du Li Do you think I would take on this blame just because I like you"st two hundred!"Si Tu Yi was also surprised."We've stirred them up, you ready I and the whirlwind will lead the way, let's go deeper."The ripples could only say that."OK, you've worked hard!"Ripple g...
