The middle-aged man frowned and stopped asking any more questions. He closed his eyes again and said, "Let's make arrangements."
Sect Leader Pingyu responded, stood up and stood at the edge of the high platform, and said in a majestic and deep voice, "Jia Rui."
Jia Rui kowtowed, "Disciple is here."
"Today Master Ling Xiao wants to accept you as his disciple and teach me the supreme Dharma of Qing Xiao Sect. Do you have any objections?"
Jia Rui kowtowed again, "Disciple has no objection."
"Okay." Sect Leader Pingyu nodded and raised his voice, "Jia Rui, a registered disciple of the inner sect of Lingxiao Peak, has excellent spiritual roots, a unique physique, and a firm mind. You elders may have any objections to becoming a true disciple of our sect."
Almost all the elders said "no objection" in unison. Only Grandmaster Huorong of Chixiao Peak held his head with one hand, swaying and dozing off.
Sect Leader Pingyu glanced at him, said nothing, and continued speaking loudly.
"Where are the bell-watching disciples?"
Two inner disciples walked in outside the door, "Disciples are here."
"Six times the Yun Jue bell rings, and one stick of incense takes time to ask the three thousand disciples of the sect if they have any objections!"
"yes!"
"Dang..." The bell rang six times, and the disciples watching the excitement at the foot of Yunxiao Peak were all excited. Their eyes were wide open, and they were searching around, wanting to see who would climb to the 3,000-level cloud level on the main peak of Yunxiao Peak. All the real elders of the whole sect objected.
In fact, all the disciples thought it was impossible. No matter how discordant they were, they had no courage. Not to mention the elders, the Master who accepted the disciples today. If they raised objections, wouldn't it be a public slap in the Master's face? Everyone tacitly understood By default, these three questions are just a process.
Everyone looked around and couldn't find the person who came forward, so they put the matter aside and the topic turned to what everyone had been talking about.
"I heard that 20 years ago, Uncle Ji Xiu accepted the sect master as his master and passed down the wedding gift from the immortal servant Feitiansha. However, the Qi Gathering Pill started and the maximum number of spiritual stones was a hundred. I don't know how lucky I am today."
Whenever the grand ceremony is a great celebration for the sect, according to the rules, the internal affairs hall will prepare three thousand wedding gifts. The content of the wedding gifts is random. The rare gifts include several spiritual stones, a pill, and many spiritual stones, hundreds of spiritual weapons, a number of spiritual talismans, and the contents are recorded. In the spirit beads, several fairies will fly into the sky and scatter them during the ceremony. If you receive them, they are yours. There is no limit to the amount. You can exchange them at the Internal Affairs Hall.
"Master Yuanying accepts a disciple. This wedding gift can be omitted. At least it is the beginning of returning to Yuan Dan."
"Then you have underestimated Senior Brother Jia. The latest news is that the wedding gifts prepared by the Internal Affairs Hall a few days ago contain many top-quality elixirs."
"Seriously, then I have to get a good seat. Oh my, no, don't squeeze!"
The stick of incense was about to burn out. Master Pingyu smoothed his beard, thinking that the time was almost up and he would not delay the master's time by being lazy, so he spoke in advance.
"Today the bell rang six times. I asked the sect's three thousand disciples. One stick of incense has arrived. The three thousand disciples have no objections. Three thousand questions have been answered. Please..."
"Wait!"
Suddenly, a cold and steady voice interrupted Sect Leader Pingyu's announcement.
There was also an explosion outside Yunxiao Peak.
"Wait a minute, why did I see someone on the top of the mountain?"
"Who, it's impossible, no one has reached the cloud level."
"Who is that fairy up there?!"
But I saw a figure standing in the pavilion, his clothes were lightly swaying, and he stepped firmly into the hall step by step.
All the elders and true disciples in the hall were surprised. They encountered this for the first time and did not react for a moment. Jia Ruimu had to turn around, his eyes so wide that they almost fell to the ground.
She...she's not dead?
But I saw the little fairy in the audience walking to the center and saluting respectfully, "Shen Zhaoning from Chixiao Peak, pay homage to the Supreme Elder, the Sect Master, and all the elders and uncles."
She raised her head and spoke calmly.
"The sect leader asked three objections. Zhao Ning also asked Senior Brother Jia three objections this time."
"It's to harm fellow sect members, kill for profit, and deviate from the Dao."
Jia Rui's eyes were cold, his voice was very low, and he gritted his teeth every word.
"Shen! Move! Ning!!!"
Chapter 117
"Xiao Zhaoning!"
"Zhao Ning Fairy!"
Jia Rui's gnashing of teeth was masked by two coincident sounds of surprise.
The dozing Grandmaster Huo Rong suddenly appeared next to Zhao Ning.
"Oh, oh, oh, little Zhao Ning is back. I know that you, a naughty little girl, will be fine!" He circled around Zhao Ning, checking up and down, left and right, "Look, the cultivation level has been promoted to two levels. , I have already reached the ninth level of qi training, which is not much better than that genius."
His last words had a bit of a yin and yang tone. Everyone here was an old fox and they all knew who was in yin and yang. However, with the sect master and the master at the top, all the real people who wanted to refute or laugh pretended to be nonchalant.
Ji Xiu covered her mouth and made a fake "cough", then greeted Zhao Ning with a smile, "Little Fairy Zhao Ning, I have been to the second level of the secret realm no less than three times, but I still can't find you, but I'm so anxious, for fear... um , Fortunately, the little fairy’s soul lamp has not been extinguished, so I know that the little fairy will definitely return.”
"Thank you Master and Master for your concern. Zhao Ning has had a great year. Of course, I owe it all to you..." Zhao Ning turned his eyes to Jia Rui, and their eyes met. Jia Rui stood up with a pale face. , then Zhao Ning continued with the next few words, "... thanks to Senior Brother Jia."
No one thought these were words of gratitude, not to mention the three major crimes that Zhao Ning pointed out as soon as he entered the palace.
Master Pingyu knew that he could no longer allow them to chat. He glanced at his superior and saw that he was still concentrating with his eyes closed. Then he raised his voice and scolded the audience, "Okay, how can you be so noisy in the hall?" Rong and Ji Xiu both go back!"
Ji Xiu took the order and returned to the meeting table. Grandmaster Huo Rong winked at Zhao Ning and returned leisurely with his hands behind his back.
"Crimson Xiao Peak Shen Zhao Ning?" Ping Guan Sect Master looked at her and suddenly smiled, "This sect knows you. Today, the little girl stood in the hall, in front of the Supreme Elder, this sect and the elder's true successor, and accused Jia Rui of three crimes. The crime is serious and harmful, and if one word is slander, it is a capital crime. Therefore, I only ask you one question - is there any basis for what you said?!"
Zhao Ning raised his head, straightened his back, and stabilized his tone.
"Zhao Ning's standing here is the basis."
All the real people and true disciples were in a slight uproar. Master Ling Xiao's eyelids slightly opened and then closed, and the others calmed down after a few exchanges.
Jia Rui grasped the hand that was hanging in the sleeve of his robe and realized that Zhao Ning must have someone to rely on while standing in the audience. Now all he could do was see whether the evidence she provided was strong or not.
He cursed "Bitch, you deserve to die" in his mind, and his thoughts suddenly wandered away for a moment, until Zhao Ning came back and interrupted his thoughts.
"A year ago, Jia Rui hired some heretics to intercept his disciples at the exit of the second level of the secret realm. After the disciples luckily killed him, Jia Rui appeared at the exit of the secret realm and blocked the exit with the Heavenly Fire Burning Body Formation, intending to kill the disciples later. The disciple had no choice but to jump into the lava river to survive. Now that the disciple has returned by chance, he asked Jia Rui if his first crime was to harm his fellow disciples?!"
"That's not right. Is this little girl making a mistake? I remember that a year ago, Master Jia's nephew didn't seem to be in the competition list." A true disciple on the forum asked Ji Xiu in a low voice, but no one here was listening. Listening to people from all directions and ten miles away, Ji Xiu quickly signaled him to be silent.
While Zhao Ning was talking, Jia Rui went through everything, from the ordinary "immortal guiding the way" to the "Samadhi True Flame Bead" in the Lingwu Forest, from being stopped with a reward to being punished by thinking about the cliff, all these disgusting things He thought that Zhao Ning either didn't dare to make it clear or couldn't get the handle. Then Zhao Ning could only focus on the interception in the secret realm, which was much easier to escape.
Jia Rui grabbed the words and raised his head to mock, "Of course, uncle is right every word. Junior sister, I have been in seclusion to build foundations since I came out of Siguo Cliff. The self-proclaimed masters of this cave are the masters of Lingxiao Peak." Uncle and Master Biwu personally witnessed it, so don’t slander it casually.”
"Jia Rui, I'm not here to cover up your words. You can just say it in the punishment hall to quibble. I'm standing here. What you say is a joke."
Zhao Ning's expression remained unchanged, and she reminded in a steady tone, "Besides, I haven't finished my accusation yet. Why is Senior Brother Jia so eager to refute? But the Master is here, feeling guilty and scared?"
"You!" Jia Rui raised his finger to greet Ning, but his reply was interrupted.
"Jia Rui!" Sect Leader Pingyu shouted, "Silence!"
Then he softened his tone and said, "This is the last of the three questions you have to ask the Master. Disciples who have any objections should listen carefully and retaliate later if they have any grievances or injustices."
Jia Rui threw away his hand and turned his back to Zhao Ning.
Zhao Ning cupped her hands and thanked Master Pingyu and continued her unfinished words.
"Two years ago, a new secret realm appeared. Jia Rui was ordered to open up the secret realm, but it attracted countless beasts, causing the entrance to collapse and trapping several disciples in the secret realm." Everyone here knows about this matter, but it has already been dealt with, so they are all waiting for Zhao Ning Later, Jia Rui broke into the secret realm privately and happened to meet the surviving disciples who were fighting for the spiritual object Zhu Guo with the monks. He did not help the disciples of the same sect to escape the difficulty, nor stopped the two sides from fighting. Instead, he sat back and watched the disciples of the same sect being killed, and acted like a fisherman to gain profit. . Then I asked if it was Senior Brother Jia Ruijia who finally obtained this spiritual object, Zhu Guo, and whether it was the second crime of killing for profit!"
Jia Rui looked sideways in surprise, never expecting Zhao Ning to know about this, but after being ordered to be silent, he could only clenched his fists sadly.
"This is the third crime, huh." A voice sounded, and he stared at Jia Rui coldly, "I heard that the demons in the secret realm were in power and killed nearly a hundred of my Kunxu cultivators. With the protection of the sect's real person, although there is no danger now, but Asking the beginning of this matter - who summoned the Haoyang Underground Palace? Who released the human demons to cause harm to the world? Who ignored the tens of thousands of monks in Kunxu?"
If it was just a grudge dispute between disciples before, this last incident made all the real people present change their expressions. The real people who had participated in the second level of the secret realm to trap human demons slowly stood up, their eyes eager to penetrate Jia Rui. .
'How dare she bring this up! '
Jia Rui never thought that Zhao Ning would mention the Haoyang underground palace from beginning to end, until Zhao Ning questioned him three times in a row, which was like a wake-up call.
'As soon as this matter is mentioned, it will become clear that the Samadhi True Flame Pearl is synthesized into the Haoyang Order. Doesn't she want the Haoyang Order? There are countless treasures in Haoyang's tomb. There is no way she doesn't want them. Is it possible that the True Flame Bead of Samadhi is not on her body? Yes, it must not be on her. Okay, this bitch, you lied to me for so long! ! ! '
Jia Rui's changeable emotions were concealed by the color of the wood on his face, but his murderous eyes were not concealed at all.
Zhao Ning was indifferent.
"Jia Rui, practiced the art of evil possession, controlled his disciple Huo Hui into the secret realm, held the Haoyang Order to summon the projection of the Haoyang underground palace, induced all the disciples of the sect to kill each other, and released human demons to wreak havoc in the secret realm. In this way, he fed the demons and controlled them. For example, Zhao Ning thinks he is not that capable and forced Senior Brother Jia to do this to kill me, then ask Jia Rui why he did this!"
Zhao Ning stepped forward, "That is the third sin, to destroy one's original intention, deviate from the Dao, and cause trouble to the common people!"
She spoke clearly and clearly, and several true disciples with low cultivation levels even felt their hearts tremble after she finished speaking.
This time, even the uproar was gone, and the hall was completely silent and extremely quiet.
until--
"Jia Rui!"
On the high discussion platform, Master Pei Qiu of Zixiao Peak gave a cold snort.
"Is what she said true? It was you who released the demon! The death of more than a hundred sect disciples was also caused by you?!"
Master Pei Qiu's beloved disciple was the fairy who risked his life to spread the news. Unfortunately, the fairy passed away before he could be carried back to the sect. Therefore, Master Pei Qiu went out to the secret realm to slay the demon in person. After returning, he was even more sad and could not let go for a long time.
All eyes fell on Jia Rui. There were hesitation, anger, gloating, and calmness in these eyes.
"It's too early to say anything." Master Qingxiaofeng leaned lazily, "Just based on this girl's one-sided words, she condemned our sect's genius, and slapped us in the face. She said that 'standing here is the basis', what do I think? There’s no basis for it.”
Master Biwu of Lingxiao Peak also echoed, "The theory of guilt is never that whoever questions it first is correct. Who knows if some disciples are jealous or maliciously fabricating it. Sect Master, what do you think?"
Sect Master Pingyu gave a fake cough, "They are all reasonable, all are reasonable, what do you think, Jia Rui?"
Jia Rui cupped his fists and said, "Disciple thinks what little junior sister said is ridiculous!"
"My disciple has been in the sect for nearly three years and has been practicing hard, practicing and discussing Taoism. After two years, he has reached the perfection of Qi training. He has been rewarded by the sect with three foundation-building pills and has achieved a breakthrough in seclusion. Now he is slaying the inner demon and his cultivation level is not very low, but he is ridiculed by others. The slander is really chilling."
"Junior Sister Zhao Ning and I met in the ordinary world, and we fell in love for the sake of immortality. I entered the inner sect of Qingxiao Sect with my single spiritual root, but Junior Sister Zhao Ning spent a year through some dirty means. I must have resentment and jealousy in my heart because I just changed my quota for joining the Ancient Dao sect after a long time."
Zhao Ning stood upright in the hall, letting Jia Rui confuse right and wrong. Her hesitant gaze on the forum turned to Jia Rui like a fool. Her expression did not change at all. She was cold and tough, unmoved, and calmly listened to him continue.
"Before I entered the sect, I came across a fire-type heavenly material and earthly treasure. Because it was immature, I hid it and raised it, but I didn't want to recruit young junior sister Ning to take it away. It also caused an earthquake and almost buried the disciple alive in the ground. Entering the sect After that, the disciple went to Junior Sister Zhao Ning to discuss the matter, but she was bewitched and punished Uncle Gu Xing of the Punishment Palace by sending me to Siguo Cliff for nearly a year, which delayed my training."
"Disciple has endured all the grievances in this. Today, I have been recognized by the sect and have the honor to be my master. I'm afraid it will arouse the jealous heart of little junior sister Zhao Ning!" He looked sideways at Zhao Ning, "little junior Zhao Ning Junior sister, I hope you will encounter many disasters in the secret realm, but if you spill your anger and resentment indiscriminately, you will have to pay a price."
Seeing Zhao Ning's expressionless face, he snorted coldly in his heart.
He raised his hands and said, "Shen Zhaoning questioned my three objections, and I, Jia Rui, replied to her in three words."
"The first crime is to harm my fellow sect. I have already explained it. The real uncles and brothers here can prove that I have countless people in the sect."
