Yang Guo: I'm invincible in the opening battle against Aunt Guo!

Hearing Zhen Zhibing's sophistry.

"A frame-up?" Li Mochou laughed angrily. "Fine! Since you say it's a frame-up—"

A murderous aura suddenly erupted from her, and her apricot-yellow Taoist robe fluttered in the wind!

"Then I will slaughter all three generations of your Quanzhen Sect disciples today, and see if Ma Yu will come out and apologize!"

Before she finished speaking, she had already pounced on Zhao Zhijing and the others like a yellow lightning bolt!

When the Crimson Serpent Fairy attacked in anger, how terrifying was her power?

Before the Ice Soul Silver Needle was even released, the palm wind swept like a cold tide, and the disciples who were nearby felt their breath catch in their throats and actually took several steps back!

"Form ranks! Defend against the enemy!"

Zhao Zhijing roared in horror, hastily forming a prototype of the "Big Dipper Formation" with Zhen Zhibing and six elite disciples beside him, unleashing seven swords in an attempt to resist.

But what level of cultivation did Li Mochou possess?

Having reached the late stage of the Innate Realm and roamed the martial world for over a decade, his practical experience far surpasses that of these Taoist priests who have long resided in the mountains.

Her figure moved like a ghost amidst the sword light, her palms flashing—

"Bang bang bang!"

Three muffled thuds rang out, and the three disciples lost their swords, coughing up blood as they flew backward!

Immediately afterwards, she used her left palm to deflect Zhen Zhibing's full-force sword strike, while her right palm, like a viper spitting its tongue, struck Zhao Zhijing's face!

Zhao Zhijing was terrified and managed to parry with his sword.

"clang--!"

As their palms clashed, Zhao Zhijing felt a chilling and venomous force pierce through his sword, instantly numbing his entire arm. The sword was even bent by the impact and snapped in two with a "crack"!

Before Li Mochou's palm strike was finished, she changed from slapping to grabbing, her five fingers like hooks, and had already gripped his Jianjing acupoint!

"Senior brother!" Zhen Zhibing's eyes widened in horror as he drew his sword to save him.

Without turning her head, Li Mochou unleashed a powerful "Five Poisons Palm" strike.

Zhen Zhibing felt a stench hit his face, as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer. He spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered back seven or eight steps, and collapsed to the ground, unable to get up again.

From the moment he made his move to capturing Zhao Zhijing and severely injuring Zhen Zhibing, it only took a dozen or so moves!

The entire room fell silent.

The remaining disciples' hands trembled as they held their swords, yet none dared to step forward.

Li Mochou held Zhao Zhijing captive, like a chick waiting to be slaughtered, and coldly surveyed the entire scene:

"Who else wants to test the skills of the Crimson Serpent Fairy?"

No one answered.

Yang Guo then slowly stepped forward and said gently:

"Don't worry, don't kill him yet."

Upon hearing this, Li Mochou's murderous aura actually diminished by a third. She let out a cold snort and slammed Zhao Zhijing to the ground.

Zhao Zhijing's acupoints were sealed, leaving him limp and weak, his eyes filled with fear.

Then Yang Guo asked Hong Lingbo, "Lingbo, which Taoist priests did you meet when you came here today?"

Despite saying that, Yang Guo kept looking at Zhen Zhibing.

After all, among the disciples present, his face was the most swollen, clearly indicating that he had been stung by a jade bee.

Hong Lingbo stepped forward, looking at the Taoist priest in front of her with eyes that seemed to want to devour her.

Although she was a little flustered, she still pointed at Zhao Zhijing and Zhen Zhibing and said:

"They were the ones who threatened me this morning. If someone poisoned me, I think the most likely culprits are the two of them."

Yang Guo nodded.

Then she leaned down to look at him, her gaze calm:

"Master, you accuse us of slander. Fortunately, I possess a skill called the 'Soul Transfer Technique,' which allows one to utter the truth without uttering a single falsehood. If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. Come, let's test the truth together."

Zhao Zhijing trembled violently!

He had long heard of some extraordinary techniques in the martial arts world that could captivate the mind, but he never expected that this young man would know them!

If I were truly under a spell, wouldn't all my despicable thoughts and poisoning attempts be exposed?

"Sorcery! Sorcery!" he hissed. "A righteous man like myself would never fear such evil magic! You are clearly trying to control me with sorcery, to make me talk nonsense and slander our sect!"

"Oh?" Yang Guo raised an eyebrow. "It seems the Daoist priest doesn't dare?"

"I..." Zhao Zhijing was speechless. In a moment of inspiration, he shouted to the disciple beside him, "Quickly go and invite the sect leader and the five senior uncles out of seclusion! Tell them that the ancient tomb demons have stormed the mountain gate and are using sorcery to persecute our fellow disciples!"

Zhen Zhibing turned to leave.

Yang Guo smiled faintly and looked at Li Mochou:

"Mo Chou, capture him too."

Li Mochou moved again!

This time, although the remaining disciples standing to the side formed a formation to block her, Li Mochou attacked in anger.

In just seven or eight moves, Zhen Zhibing was also captured by her in the same way and brought to the center of the field, where he and Zhao Zhijing lay paralyzed side by side.

Yang Guo said no more, squatted down, and stared intently into Zhao Zhijing's eyes.

A faint light seemed to flicker deep within his pupils.

"Look me in the eyes."

The voice was deep and had a strange rhythm.

Zhao Zhijing tried to avoid it, but his acupoints were sealed, and he couldn't turn his head or neck. He could only stare at Yang Guo.

Gradually, his eyes began to glaze over, becoming unfocused and confused...

"Tell me," Yang Guo said gently, "where were you today? What did you do?"

Zhao Zhijing's lips moved, his voice dull and flat:

"Today, I took the 'Power-Dissolving Powder' to the upper reaches of the cold pool behind the mountain... and poured the poison powder into the water through a crack in the mountain..."

The entire audience erupted in uproar!

"Why did you poison him?" Yang Guo continued to ask.

"The Tomb Demoness... injured my disciples... set up the Jade Bee Formation to harm us... I want revenge... I want to make them lose all their inner strength and be at my mercy... The martial arts manuals, treasures in the Tomb... and that white-clad fairy... are all mine..."

As he uttered these words, Zhao Zhijing's face grew paler and paler, yet his eyes remained empty and bewildered.

The Quanzhen disciples around them were already dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning!

Their revered Uncle Zhao... is actually such a despicable person?!

Yang Guo turned to Zhen Zhibing and performed the procedure accordingly.

Zhen Zhibing was weaker in will than Zhao Zhijing. In a short while, he also revealed the details of the plot, the process of poisoning, and even his filthy thoughts about how to divide the treasures of the ancient tomb and how to deal with the people in the ancient tomb after the deed was done.

The evidence is conclusive and irrefutable.

Yang Guo finished his practice and stood up, looking at the completely silent Quanzhen disciples, his tone calm:

"Now, does anyone still think we're framing them?"

No one answered.

Zhao Zhijing and Zhen Zhibing collapsed to the ground, their eyes gradually regaining their clarity.

When they learned from their disciples what they had just said, their faces turned deathly pale.

It’s over.

It's all over.

Li Mochou coldly stared at the two of them, preparing to strike.

At this moment, Little Dragon Girl grabbed Li Mochou.

"Senior sister, let's ask the leader of the Quanzhen Sect how to handle this matter."

Li Mochou paused, then looked up into the depths of Chongyang Palace, and let out a clear shout:

"Ma Yu! If you don't come out now..."

Give this fairy an explanation.

"Today, I will relinquish this Chongyang Palace."

"Rivers of blood!"

P.S.: It's reached number one on the new book chart in the fanfiction category, which I never expected!

However, I've been too busy these past two days, and my writing time has decreased again. I plan to write more content that everyone enjoys reading in the future.

Especially after arriving in Xiangyang!
