Chapter 186: Give Me Some Face

At this moment, inside the Taihua Grand Hall, everyone’s gaze turned towards Ye Xuan, curious about how he would explain Qingxue’s lethal action against Qin Yushou.

Taihua is known as a righteous immortal sect; without a justifiable reason, even Qingxue, as an elder of Taihua, should not commit such fratricide.

Even if Qin Yushou was possessed by a heart demon, before he is beyond saving, such drastic measures should not have been taken against him.

After all, Taihua is a cultivation sect, and possession by a heart demon is something that can be exorcised.

Facing the crowd’s gaze, Ye Xuan spoke calmly, “Elder Qingguang, you said what he was going to do was a mistake influenced by the heart demon, that’s not necessarily the case...”

“How about, let Master use the Former Dust Mirror to see what he has done in the past.”

“Oh?” Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Elder Qingguang’s frown deepened and looked doubtfully at Qin Yushou.

His own disciple, could he be someone with malicious intent who has committed evil deeds?

Hearing Ye Xuan’s suggestion to use the Former Dust Mirror to inspect his past, the heart demon inside Qin Yushou was visibly unsettled.

He looked at Ye Xuan with a puzzled expression, quite confused. Because, at this moment, he was completely fused with Qin Yushou, and in Qin Yushou’s memories, there was nothing that he did to offend Ye Xuan.

Nor was there anything disgraceful that Ye Xuan could have seen. Where did Ye Xuan get the confidence to think that Qin Yushou must have an unsavory past?

Qin Yushou’s gaze was fixed on Ye Xuan, a slight smile playing on his lips. In his memory, there was nothing noteworthy about his past.

Even if the Former Dust Mirror was used, it would reveal nothing. Ye Xuan’s suggestion for Qingxue to use the Former Dust Mirror was ultimately going to prove his innocence.

As long as he was found innocent, the Taihua Sect would surely do everything to save him. As for the heart demon inside him being expelled, that was not a big deal.

As long as he could survive, that was enough. Moreover, this time Elder Qingxue striking him without any reason would also affect her reputation within Taihua Sect.

Since Ye Xuan wanted to go against him, he was actually pleased to see such a scenario unfold.

Qin Yushou thought that as long as the heart demon was expelled from his body, he could still be saved.

But what the heart demon thought was that it was already doomed. Given that, it might as well cause some trouble for the people of Taihua Sect before dying.

With that in mind, it simply gave up resisting. The next moment, Qingxue’s sword qi instantly swept through Qin Yushou’s entire body, and before he could react, he and the heart demon were annihilated, leaving no trace behind.

Seeing how timid Qingguang was in front of Qingxue, many of the Taihua elders couldn’t help but give him a disdainful look.

This guy, who usually acts so high and mighty, turns out to be a coward when it really matters. He only spoke harshly for a few moments before starting to speak nicely.

“Hmph, you don’t need to apologize to me, but the person you really need to apologize to is Ye Xuan,” Qingxue said.

“Your disciple has committed so many shameful acts of persecution against him, it’s simply outrageous, and today, even if I killed him, you shouldn’t have questioned it.”

“Uh...” Hearing Qingxue’s words, Elder Qingguang felt even more guilty.

‘My disciple persecuted Ye Xuan?’ He looked at Ye Xuan, wondering if this was also why he chose to kill Ye Xuan after becoming demonized?!

For a moment, Elder Qingguang’s mind was in turmoil, unable to figure out where his disciple could have possibly persecuted Ye Xuan.

They haven’t met before, have they? No!!!

“Alright, no need to say more, I’ll just show you what he has done.”

Seeing that Elder Qingguang was still confused, Qingxue took out her Former Dust Mirror. In her view, since the Former Dust Mirror can reveal the past, then even if it involves future events, as long as they indeed happened, they should also be considered the past.

Thus, using the Former Dust Mirror, it should be possible to reveal what Qin Yushou had done in the future.

However, she did not notice that Ye Xuan’s expression was a bit odd. At this moment, Ye Xuan was secretly holding back a laugh.

The content that the Former Dust Mirror could reveal, he could also manipulate...

Meanwhile, Elder Qingguang was secretly convinced that his disciple had done nothing to persecute Ye Xuan. When the time comes, he would definitely not let things go easily with Qingxue.

After all, even if his disciple was at fault, she shouldn’t have killed him without saying a word. At least she should have given him some face and let him argue his case a bit.

By directly killing his disciple, if he didn’t make Qingxue lose some face, how could he face his fellow sect members in the future?!

But right now, he didn’t dare to talk big. After all, what if it was true?

Thinking this, he said to Qingxue, “If that’s the case, then I really must see if what Elder Qingxue said about my disciple persecuting Ye Xuan is true...”

‘It better be true, hmph–! ‘

Of course, he didn’t dare say this last part out loud..
