Liu Yunzi looked at Zhao Wuji's resolute expression and let out a deep sigh.
"Junior Brother, the Mirror Moon Cold Lake is the foundation of our sect. If Elder Shen is truly consumed by her inner demons and commits such a treasonous act, it will truly be a misfortune for our Falling Cloud Sect."
Liu Yunzi waved his sleeve, his tone filled with sorrow and the commanding presence of one who prioritizes the greater good.
"Go ahead and do what you must. I, your Senior Brother, will grant you access to the main peak's grand array! Let all the disciples of the sect see that the rules of our Falling Cloud Sect are paramount. No matter who it is, anyone who violates the sect rules will be severely punished without mercy!"
"Thank you for your support, Sect Master!"
Zhao Wuji laughed wildly in his heart.
With the Sect Master's endorsement, his scheme was absolutely perfect!
He suddenly turned around, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, and furiously activated the mother Gu insect within his dantian!
"Vile creature! Hurry up and come face your trial!"
He roared, sending an extremely powerful arresting force along the karmic threads of the Gu poison directly into the massive teleportation array in front of him!
"Om—!"
The main peak's grand teleportation array instantly erupted with a blinding white light.
The space distorted violently as fierce winds howled.
This grand array was set up by the sect's patriarch.
It could forcibly teleport people from a large, pre-set area of the Mirror Moon Cold Lake.
The eyes of the thousands of people present were fixed on the center of the light.
Everyone thought that in the next second, that normally aloof, ice-cold elder would be forcibly dragged out, her hair disheveled and her body reeking of demonic energy.
However.
When the light gradually dissipated.
The entire ashram of the Heavenly Punishment Main Peak once again fell into a suffocating deathly silence.
There was no qi deviation.
There was no maddened rebel.
In the teleportation array, Shen Qingyue stood in a white palace dress with gold patterns. Although the hem of her dress was slightly messy, her cold and stunningly beautiful face showed not a single trace of demonic corruption.
She did not even have the slightest hint of a disordered aura.
She simply stood there, extremely calm and even carrying a hint of mockery.
And behind her.
Stood a young man wearing the gray robe of an outer disciple, his eyes as deep as an abyss.
Gu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, a highly dangerous sneer curving the corners of his mouth.
"Shen Qingyue?! How are you... you're fine?!"
Zhao Wuji looked at the completely unharmed Shen Qingyue. The righteous look on his face instantly froze, and his old eyes widened in disbelief.
How could this be possible?!
His Blood Soul Marionette Gu had clearly transmitted the signal of a successful enslavement!
His clone had already self-destructed, detonating the remnant soul of a Golden Core stage Heavenly Demon.
How could she still be standing here so lucidly?!
Before Zhao Wuji could recover from his extreme shock.
Shen Qingyue looked coldly at the hypocritical old thief on the high platform. A trace of extreme disgust and murderous intent flashed through her cold, clear eyes.
"Grand Elder, I have brought you the evidence you wanted."
Shen Qingyue snorted coldly and suddenly waved her wide sleeve!
"Bang!"
A shriveled, charred corpse radiating an extremely dense, nauseating, and terrifying demonic energy.
Was violently and ruthlessly slammed by her onto the preaching platform right in front of Zhao Wuji!
Although the corpse had no facial features, the extremely pure origin aura lingering on it, as well as the Heavenly Demon remnant soul that had been forcibly stitched into its Golden Core and was wriggling like a living creature!
In an instant, like a spark thrown into a pot of boiling oil, it completely detonated the entire crowd!
"Is that... the aura of a Heavenly Demon?!"
Sect Master Liu Yunzi's expression changed drastically. Almost instinctively, he summoned his protective magical treasure, staring intently at the corpse.
"Why... does this corpse have the Grand Elder's origin aura?!"
Several inner sect elders also instantly realized something was wrong and cried out in alarm.
Zhao Wuji looked down at the meticulously prepared blood avatar corpse at his feet.
Especially when he saw the ironclad proof of his long-term feeding of a Heavenly Demon stitched into its Golden Core.
His Golden Core peak heart felt as if it had been viciously struck by a heavy hammer, and his brain instantly crashed!
"This... this isn't mine... Someone is framing me!"
He never imagined that the Heavenly Demon remnant soul he used to frame Shen Qingyue would be stitched back into his own clone's body in such a cruel and precise manner, completely intact!
And it even left behind irrefutable traces of long-term feeding!
His hypocritical disguise suffered an irreparable crack at this moment.
"Old dog, are you trying to destroy the evidence?"
Just at the moment when Zhao Wuji's mind was in chaos and he instinctively wanted to circulate his spiritual energy to forcefully blast this corpse into dust!
Murderous intent surged out of Gu Yang's dark eyes like something corporeal!
His divine sense instantly locked onto the Blood Soul Marionette Child Gu in Shen Qingyue's dantian, which had been tightly penned and suppressed in a corner by the Great Sun True Fire.
"Detonate!"
Gu Yang shouted coldly in his heart.
He didn't directly burn the child Gu to death; instead, he completely released the constraints of the Great Sun True Fire!
What was the characteristic of the Great Sun True Fire?
It dealt true soul damage and could follow an enemy's spiritual energy meridians to ruthlessly surge upstream!
At the exact moment when Zhao Wuji, in order to show off in front of the entire sect, actively triggered the mother Gu and established that extremely thick arresting connection channel.
Gu Yang directly used the overwhelmingly tyrannical Great Sun True Fire to wrap around that dying wisp of the child Gu.
Following the connection channel that Zhao Wuji himself had opened, it rushed back with ten times the ferocity, like a burning dark gold mad dragon, viciously and mercilessly striking back!
"Boom—!"
The double soul backlash stacked together, combined with the Great Sun True Fire's soul-burning true damage that ignored all defenses.
Zhao Wuji, far away on the high platform, didn't even have time to react!
He only felt the mother Gu in his dantian let out an extremely shrill scream before instantly turning into a ball of golden flames.
That terrifying high temperature, capable of burning down the void, followed his meridians, directly burning through his internal organs, and madly darted deep into his sea of consciousness!
"Ah—!!!"
Zhao Wuji's immortal-like old face instantly twisted into an extremely terrifying shape.
He looked up to the sky and let out a shrill scream like a vengeful spirit.
Under the terrified gazes of the thousands of disciples of the entire sect.
This lofty Grand Elder of the Falling Cloud Sect, hailed as a paragon of the righteous path.
Suddenly spewed out a large mouthful of black blood mixed with organ fragments and dark golden sparks!
His entire body, like a mangy dog with its tendons pulled out, fell stiffly and heavily from the three-zhang-high purple gold lotus platform!
"Bang!"
Those old eyes, which had originally radiated vigor, were now filled with extreme terror and incomprehensible despair.
In front of thousands of disciples, his immortal-like face instantly twisted into an extremely terrifying shape.
From his seven orifices, dark red toxic blood, boiled by the burning of the Great Sun True Fire, began to continuously seep out.
It hurt too much!
That excruciating pain of having his soul burned alive made this peak Golden Core Grand Elder completely lose his mind!
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos.
