All-around protagonist mentor

008: Sure enough, someone was plotting against us in the dark.

"Um?"

Qingxuan's words were like a wake-up call, enlightening everyone in the Extreme Heaven Division and making them realize a possibility.

If something is out of the ordinary, it must be something sinister. If a normal person suddenly has abnormal thoughts, then there must be external factors influencing them.

The members of the Extreme Heaven Division did not believe that their sect's Holy Maiden was truly an idiot; there must be more to the story.

The Right Elder of the Extreme Heaven Division glared angrily at Qin Daoxin, his gaze sharp as swords, and said in a deep voice, "Daoxin, speak! Did someone instigate you to do such an absurd thing?"

Qin Daoxin's face stiffened, his body trembled slightly, and he said in a panic, "No...no...no one misled me, this is just my own thought."

Seeing Qin Daoxin like this, the faces of everyone from the Extreme Heaven Division were gloomy, and their eyes were filled with raging anger.

Qin Daoxin's acting was so bad that her expression was an admission of guilt!

Sure enough, someone was interfering!

The thought that someone would dare to plot against the Celestial Bureau over this matter filled everyone in the Celestial Bureau with uncontrollable rage.

Even the people from Wujiangdao looked very unhappy, filled with resentment.

"Speak!" the Left Elder of the Extreme Heaven Division roared, "Who else knows about your illicit affair with Xiao Linyuan?"

Since that person wants to use this matter to scheme against Jitiansi and Wujiangdao, then he needs to know about this matter first.

Seeing this, Qin Daoxin knew he couldn't hide it any longer. He looked at Elder Zuo with pleading eyes and begged, "Grandpa Elder Zuo, please don't force me."

Elder Zuo sneered, "You won't talk? Fine, then I'll investigate them one by one! There are only a few of them anyway, I'll find them eventually!"

"Even if we can't find out, we can just kill them all! No, I won't just kill them so easily. I will personally inflict the Soul-Shattering Torture on them, making them wish they were dead!"

Qin Daoxin wasn't truly stupid; she wouldn't go around spreading such a thing. It must have been someone close to her, someone who had completely gained her trust, who would have heard her mention it. This significantly narrowed down the scope of the investigation.

As the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Division, Qin Daoxin held a high position and naturally didn't have many friends. Aside from outsiders, there were only a handful of suspects.

Hearing Elder Zuo utter such harsh words, Qin Daoxin could no longer hold back and burst into tears, saying, "Grandpa Elder Zuo, please don't do this! I'll tell you everything. I just beg you to let that person go. She was only thinking of me; she meant well."

"Who is that person?!" Elder Zuo asked sternly.

Qin Daoxin gritted his teeth, filled with endless guilt and self-reproach, and whispered, "It's Meixiang."

"Plum Blossom Fragrance?"

The two elders of the Supreme Heavenly Division were taken aback, and then suddenly remembered who this Mei Xiang was.

Mei Xiang was one of a group of maids that Ji Tian Si bought a few years ago. Later, because she was clever, obedient and considerate, she was assigned to Qin Dao Xin's side as his personal maid.

Having revealed the final secret, Qin Daoxin gave up and recounted the entire story.

In fact, Qin Daoxin knew how outrageous her relationship with Xiao Linyuan was, so she kept it a secret from the beginning and didn't tell anyone.

However, keeping such things to oneself was incredibly stressful, and with her wedding to Tianyu Jun fast approaching, Qin Daoxin grew increasingly agitated. One night, unable to bear the pressure any longer, Qin Daoxin instinctively sought help and confided in Meixiang about her relationship with Xiao Linyuan, hoping Meixiang could offer some advice.

So, Meixiang came up with this idea for her.

Qin Daoxin was originally innocent and naive, and was ignorant of the ways of the world. At that time, she was worried and confused, and did not think about the problems in detail. She just felt that Meixiang's idea could work, so she did it.

Upon hearing Qin Daoxin's account, the eyes of the two senior elders of the Extreme Heaven Division flashed with murderous intent, and they instantly focused all their suspicions on Mei Xiang.

Being the personal maid of the Holy Maiden of the Extreme Heaven Division is a good job with a high status, even higher than that of the outer disciples of the Extreme Heaven Division. Even the elite inner disciples have to treat her with respect.

Meixiang must be quite clever to have stood out from the crowd of maids and landed this job. On the contrary, she must be smarter and more resourceful than most people to have climbed this ladder.

It's quite intriguing that such a clever person would make such an absurd suggestion.

"Snap!"

Qing Xuan clapped his hands lightly and smiled at the members of the Extreme Heaven Division, "The truth has finally come to light. Fellow Daoists of the Extreme Heaven Division, you'd better go back and thoroughly examine your sect members. The Extreme Heaven Division is a large and powerful organization, and it's inevitable that it will attract the covetous eyes of others."

The two elders of the Extreme Heaven Division bowed to Qing Xuan again to express their heartfelt gratitude, saying, "Thank you for reminding us, young brother. The Extreme Heaven Division is extremely grateful and will certainly repay you handsomely in the future."

With that, the two elders turned to Tian Shengjun, and without Tian Shengjun having to ask them to leave, they said with shame, "Our Jitian Division has been incompetent in its governance, and such a mess has occurred, which is embarrassing for the Chief. We will return immediately to rectify the sect, and we will fulfill the Chief's conditions as soon as possible. We will take our leave now, and hope that the Chief will forgive us."

After saying this, the two elders, disregarding Tian Shengjun's reaction, hurriedly left with Qin Daoxin.

After all, problems within a sect are no small matter, and naturally, the sooner they are dealt with, the better.

Watching the departing members of the Extreme Heaven Division, Tian Shengjun coldly uttered a sound, waved his sleeve, and his face still showed lingering anger.

Qingxuan tilted her head and smiled at Tianshengjun, "Oh dear~, Chief, look at the mess this Jitian Division has made, it's truly shameful. Shouldn't we take some steps to rectify things?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Shengjun was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly understood and nodded heavily.

The matter of the Extreme Heaven Division served as a reminder to Tian Shengjun: if there were people with ulterior motives within the Extreme Heaven Division, then there were none within his Martial Frontier Path.

The Wujiang Dao has been too complacent for too long these past few years, and it's inevitable that there have been oversights when recruiting people. It's time to investigate properly.

Qingxuan laughed heartily: "Since the Chief has already understood everything, I will not say any more. Farewell."

With that, Qingxuan strode towards the gate of the Star-Picking Hall without looking back, making no mention of her contribution to saving the day.

Tian Shengjun stared blankly at Qing Xuan's retreating figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions. In truth, he really wanted to talk to Qing Xuan, but the other party's nonchalant departure clearly made it clear that he didn't want to stay any longer.

In the end, Tian Shengjun did not say anything to persuade her to stay. He simply bowed and cupped his hands in greeting to Qing Xuan's figure.

When Tian Shengjun straightened up again, Qing Xuan had already disappeared.

Almost simultaneously, in Qingxuan's small, dilapidated house, Qingxuan was already lying on the bed, leisurely drinking his wine.

Before long, after finishing a bottle of fine wine, Qingxuan's face flushed slightly. She looked at the sky outside the window and murmured contentedly to herself:

"Oh dear~~~, a great era of turbulent times and rising heroes is about to begin~, I wonder who will be the protagonist of this era~? Hiccup~~~"
