The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 38: Did Master instruct you?
"Disciple Li Ruo greets the Sect Master and all the elders!"

Li Ruo knelt on the ground in a daze. Although she didn't know what had happened, she knew something must have happened by looking at everyone's expressions.

She knelt obediently, and the first person she thought of was her senior brother, Bai Yang.

When she raised her head, Bai Yang turned his head and looked away with a cold expression, not wanting to look her in the eye at all.

Looking at her third senior brother An Ze, he was glaring at her fiercely, making her confused.

"Li Ruo, when you delivered the Qianshan Spiritual Spring yesterday, did you add something to the alchemy furnace?"

Before the sect leader expressed his opinion, An Ze jumped out first to accuse Li Ruo, completely ignoring the fact that they came from the same lineage and only wanted to clear Ye Chuxue's suspicion.

"what?"

Li Ruo was stunned when she heard this, and her little face became more and more confused.

She had no idea what An Ze was talking about!
"You're still pretending, aren't you?"

An Ze laughed in anger, "If you hadn't added something to Junior Sister Ye's alchemy furnace yesterday, how could the pill be poisonous?"

"Tell me the truth, did you receive instructions from Master?"

"She always troubled Senior Sister Ye in the past, and this time she resorted to such despicable means, causing an innocent disciple to be poisoned and unconscious!"

"Tell the truth quickly, or else you'll be expelled from the sect for killing your fellow disciples!"

"The pill is poisonous? Murdering a fellow disciple?"

Li Ruo was stunned for a moment, then saw Wu Dan who was unconscious, and finally understood what had happened.

This group of people actually thought they were the ones who poisoned them?
It even involves the master?
Li Ruo's face changed, and she immediately retorted, "I didn't! Yesterday, I followed your instructions to deliver the Thousand Mountain Spiritual Spring. When I arrived at the alchemy furnace room, I found no one there, so I put the Thousand Mountain Spiritual Spring down and left. I didn't even open the alchemy furnace to take a look. How could I have poisoned it?"

"And Master has been in seclusion. How can you bring yourself to blame him?"

She stared at An Ze stubbornly, not understanding why An Ze wanted to wrongly accuse her master.

What good would it do him if something happened to the Master?
"You said you didn't open the furnace, so why is the elixir poisonous?"

An Ze sneered, walked to Li Ruo, and glanced at her coldly.

"With your talent, you were able to become Master's true disciple. Who knows what kind of deal you made with her?"

"Don't even think about denying this! I allowed you to deliver the things because I thought you were honest, but who knew you would harbor such evil intentions and cause Senior Sister Ye to be implicated!"

"If Senior Sister Ye is really hurt by this, even if you die a hundred times, it won't be enough!"

As he said this, he actually kicked Li Ruo.

"Well--"

After being kicked hard in the heart, Li Ruo immediately turned pale, covered her chest in pain, and looked at An Ze in shock.

"Third Brother, how can you doubt me like this?"

Li Ruo's pale face was full of disappointment. Although she knew that her third senior brother didn't like her, she didn't expect that he hated her so much.

Her eyes turned red and her small body trembled with anger.

"For the past six months, you told me to go east, but I didn't dare go west!"

"You asked me to go hunting in the back mountains, cook for you, deliver things for you everywhere, clean the house, plant flowers and plants, and tidy up the spiritual fields. I did it all because you are my senior brother!"

"I thought that as long as I was obedient, you would accept me sooner or later."

Li Ruo held back the tears that were about to fall and forced herself to hold them back.

"It's fine if you don't like me, but you can't frame me like this, let alone Master!"

"Master is upright and honest. He has never asked me to frame anyone. What right do you have to accuse her so casually?"

At this moment, Li Ruo hated An Ze from the bottom of her heart.

It’s better not to have a third brother like this!
"Master raised you, yet you treat her like this for a woman. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

The small body, obviously weak, stood straight at this moment.

"Can you say that again?"

An Ze's face darkened, and murderous intent instantly locked onto Li Ruo. He raised his palm and slapped her fiercely. He didn't hold back at all, and the tiny Li Ruo was completely unable to resist. If it landed, she would either die or be injured.

Just as the slap was about to fall, Bai Yang finally stopped An Ze.

"Big Brother, why are you stopping me?"

"First, let's examine it thoroughly."

Bai Yang looked at Li Ruo expressionlessly, without a trace of emotion in his eyes.

"Big Brother, do you also think that I did it, just like Third Brother?"

Li Ruo seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope and quickly shook her head: "This matter really has nothing to do with me. I didn't poison anyone! Master didn't order me to do anything either. I really didn't do anything!"

Bai Yang looked at Li Ruo again.

The little girl, who was only a few years old, looked very pitiful.

But he could not feel any sympathy in his heart, instead he was full of displeasure.

"Of course this matter has nothing to do with Master, but whether you are a suspect or not, we have to interrogate you to find out!"

Bai Yang was very opposed to Li Ruo's appearance from the beginning to the end. Even though he knew in his heart that he should rescue her, he remained indifferent.

He also wanted to be selfish for once.

It would be good if Li Ruo could be expelled from the sect.

"Big brother"

Li Ruo sat back, and the last bit of light in her eyes went out.

No one believed her.

"Bai Yang, you two are from the same school!"

The second elder couldn't bear it anymore.

She could understand why An Ze was such a fool.

But Bai Yang shouldn’t do that!
“I think you have all been brainwashed by someone!!!”

She now realized that these people were obsessed with Ye Chuxue and didn't care about other people's lives at all.

"Besides, Li Ruo did enter the alchemy furnace room, but who can prove that she put poison in the furnace?"

"I also said that Ye Chuxue accidentally put something else in during the refining process!"

Right now everyone is on Ye Chuxue's side, and no one cares about Li Ruo's life or death.

If she didn't say something to help, the little girl would be forced to death!
"Master, what the Second Elder said is absolutely right. Perhaps it's my own fault. Please don't make things difficult for Li Ruo."

"I will take full responsibility for this matter. I am willing to accept any punishment the sect may impose on me!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Ye Chuxue immediately thought of retreating in order to advance.

Otherwise, people would accuse her of forcing a little girl.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the crowd who were originally a little shaken immediately stood on her side.

"Tsk, Senior Sister Ye is so magnanimous that she even wants to take the blame for Li Ruo!"

"Li Ruo is so despicable! Senior Sister Ye is such a good person, yet she could do such a thing and even implicate innocent disciples. I think she should be expelled from the sect!"

"Otherwise, if everyone follows suit, won't the sect be in chaos?"

"The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. You can't give her special treatment just because she's a disciple of Master Song, right?"

"That's right, this must be dealt with seriously!"

"."

The disciples watching were very excited. Now, Ye Chuxue's image in their hearts was tall and holy and could not be tarnished.
