Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

Although she couldn't see clearly what it was, some things seemed to be slowly changing. She seemed to understand what her senior brother was saying. At this moment, Lu Xiaofan said, "Senior sister, let's go. Master and sect leader have both left. There's no point in us staying. We don't need to cause unnecessary trouble."
Tian Ling'er murmured, "Let's go, let's go back."
Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Traitor Appears, the Acting Sect Leader
Upon returning to Qingyun Sect, Tian Ling'er went to her room. Xiao Yi, who had been sent out on a mission, had the opportunity to contact his sect members. He thought that since he had drunk the blood of the Beast God of the Demonic Sect before leaving, it shouldn't have caused any harm.
But as he walked, he sensed something was wrong. He suddenly grew long claws and teeth, and his disheveled appearance made him look like a wild beast. He was also very thirsty for blood, and the hunger in his mouth grew stronger and stronger. Unfortunately, a Qingyun Sect disciple nearby became his blood-sucking target.
Although he knew it wasn't his intention, he still felt a pang of fear at killing a fellow disciple. However, his ruthlessness was not to be underestimated, and he comforted himself by saying it was all for the sake of the sect before quickly leaving.
The matter at Liubo Mountain has come to an end. On the Qingyun Sect's side, Tian Buyi, after various observations, finally suspected the suspect to be an elder. However, he dared not act rashly, as the elder of the Qingyun Sect held a prominent position within the sect. If he were to inadvertently wrong someone, the consequences would outweigh the gains and would also bring disaster upon his own sect.
So he kept observing, but ultimately stopped making any progress, not daring to publicize it too much for fear of alerting the enemy. Just when things were at a standstill, Lin Xieyao and Tian Ling'er's wedding was approaching, so Tian Buyi temporarily put aside this matter and started working on Tian Ling'er's wedding.
Because it was the daughter of the peak master getting married, there were quite a few people who came to offer their congratulations. However, for some reason, Xiao Yicai also came. Although it wasn't exactly open and aboveboard, he wasn't sneaking around either. He just brought some gifts and watched part of the wedding.
Cangsong, who never associated with Tian Buyi, also came. Tian Buyi didn't think much of it and assumed he was there to offer his congratulations. However, the strange thing was that Cangsong seemed absent-minded when he arrived, his eyes darting around as if he were looking for something. But Tian Buyi didn't pay much attention. As the wedding preparations were coming to an end and most of the guests had left, Cangsong also hurriedly left.
However, Tian Buyi's disciple discovered Lu Xiaofan's injury at the back door. Although he didn't know why, Tian Buyi felt that something was wrong. Just then, Lin Xieyao met Tian Buyi at the door and told him that Cangsong was a traitor to the Qingyun Sect. Tian Buyi didn't believe it at all, because his senior brother had been in the sect for decades and would never do such a thing.
Lin Xieyao showed him something—a rune from the Blood Refining Hall. It had fallen off when Cangsong hurriedly left. Lu Xiaofan had also woken up and told them that Cangsong had injured him because he had discovered that Cangsong was in contact with people from the Blood Refining Hall and wanted to kill him to silence him.
At this point, Tian Buyi had no choice but to believe it. He told the sect leader about it, but no one believed him. In the main hall, Tian Buyi questioned Cangsong about the matter.
Knowing he was about to be exposed, Cangsong took the opportunity to apply the Seven-Tailed Centipede's poison to Daoxuan. Daoxuan realized he was poisoned and hurriedly pressed his acupoints.
Seeing that Dao Xuan was poisoned, Cang Song pretended to go forward to check on him. Taking advantage of Dao Xuan's momentary lapse in attention, he pulled out a dagger and stabbed Dao Xuan in the waist. Shui Yue, Tian Buyi, and the others rushed forward to protect Dao Xuan.
For his safety, Dao Xuan used his internal energy to force out the dagger, but was seriously injured. This is when Dao Xuan questioned Cang Song about why he was like this.
Cangsong replied, “I am unwilling to associate with you, a two-faced person. You don’t know what you’ve done wrong, so why are you putting on an act here? If you had known this would happen a hundred years ago, why would Brother Wan have spent his whole life in that kind of place? This position was never yours to begin with, and it’s time for you to pay it back.”
"And you all look so compassionate, yet you sit in your high positions watching others live and die. You say you want to save everyone and eliminate evil, but the people you should be eliminating are yourselves. Your hearts are already filthy. Why do you call me a traitor? I think you are the ones who are traitors. I just did what you wanted to do but didn't dare to do."
At this moment, Tian Buyi said, "Cangsong, as the master of a peak, you should do your job properly. Now you are colluding with the Demonic Sect and trying to pin the blame on us fellow disciples. You are utterly foolish."
"Ha, now they're spouting these high-sounding words." "In that case, let's see who's the real deal." Just then, a disciple ran in from outside the shop and said, "Master, it's bad! The demonic attack is coming!" Cangsong took this opportunity to escape.
The Demonic Cult has attacked, and the sect leader is in distress. All the fellow disciples can do now is to help heal the sect leader. However, the Demonic Cult is coming on strong, and it is unknown how much the disciples of Qingyun Sect can withstand them.
This is what Tian Buyi said to Lin Xieyao, Lu Xiaofan, and the others: "The Demonic Sect has attacked. We, the fellow disciples, must heal our sect leader. You all go to the back mountain and guard our treasure, the Zhushan."
The Legend of Sword and Fairy.
"Yes." But Lin Xieyao had other considerations at this moment. He needed to seize the luck to kill the Beast God. Although he had seized the luck, the Beast God was not easy to deal with.
Oh right, I remember that Dao Xuan killed the Beast God with the Zhuxian Sword in the end. So, could I take the Zhuxian Sword? But I'm definitely not at my current level. I understand the saying "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." I'd better not let anyone take the sword. I'll assess the situation first. If it doesn't work out, I'll have to take a risk.
The Demonic Sect has already attacked. This time, for some reason, the Demonic Sect is particularly fierce and is almost at the entrance of the main hall. At this time, the sect leader could no longer sit still. What use is the sect leader if the Qingyun Sect is gone? So, risking his life, he used the Zhuxian Sword to repel the Demonic Sect. However, he was also severely injured and it seems that he will not be able to recover for several months.
With the sect leader recuperating from her injuries, the affairs of the sect were handed over to the peak master of Maple Peak. However, a sect as large as Qingyun Sect cannot function without a sect leader, so they planned to inform Xiao Yicai, a disciple who had infiltrated the Demonic Sect. After all, it was very appropriate for Xiao Yicai, the sect leader's disciple, to take over as acting sect leader.
However, Lin Xieyao said that it was not easy for Senior Brother Xiao to infiltrate the Demonic Sect, and his efforts should not be wasted. There are other fellow disciples among the current sect leaders. He is only acting as sect leader, and when Senior Brother Xiao returns, he can take over. He will not give up a good opportunity to learn about the Demonic Sect because of this matter.
Lin Xieyao raised this question, and all the sect leaders agreed that it made perfect sense. However, the question remained: who should succeed him as acting sect leader? The sects had suffered heavy losses of disciples, and this was truly a difficult situation.
They couldn't find anyone they thought was capable of taking on such a great responsibility.
At this moment, Tian Ling'er stepped forward and said, "I think Senior Brother Lin is capable."
As Zhao spoke, everyone looked at Lin Xieyao. Although this person's cultivation was not very good, he was still very talented and had a smooth personality. He was able to take on this heavy responsibility. Moreover, he had already married Tian Ling'er, so they were not afraid of him. After all, he was a member of our Qingyun Sect. He would never do anything to harm our Qingyun Sect.
The sect leader is currently recovering from his injuries, so we must be careful to prevent the demonic sect members from launching a sneak attack. Meanwhile, Xiao Yi heard that the sect leader was injured and rushed back, only to find that Lin Xieyao had become the acting sect leader.
This position was originally mine. They claimed that I had been an undercover agent in the Demonic Sect for a long time and that I couldn't afford to fail, but that's bullshit. They're just afraid I'll seize power from the sect leader. I even drank the blood of the Beast God for this, sacrificing so much for the sect.
They actually abandoned me and chose a disciple who is inferior to me in every way. The seeds of hatred have already been sown in Xiao Yicai's heart. He vows to kill Lin Xieyao and reclaim the position of sect leader.
位.
Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Great Battle (Part One)
At this moment, Lin Xieyao was not complacent about becoming the acting sect leader. Instead, he was thinking about Tian Ling'er's unhappiness.
He then asked, "Senior brother, are you unhappy about Ling'er's unnecessary recommendation of you as acting sect leader?"
Lin Xieyao said, "Ling'er, don't overthink it. I'm grateful to you, how could I be angry with you? I'm just considering the pros and cons of becoming the acting sect leader."
"How could that be? Although senior brother said that there are often fights among the disciples, they still wouldn't do anything that would harm the interests of the sect." Lin Xieyao thought that just because they wouldn't, it didn't mean that Xiao Yi wouldn't. Today, the way he looked at me was as if he wanted to devour me alive. I think he's probably going to have a fight with me.
However, he didn't say it out loud. Firstly, he thought Tian Ling'er might think he was overthinking things. His senior brother was the sect leader's disciple and was always gentle with people. How could he be hostile to him? Secondly, if Tian Ling'er believed him, she would feel even more guilty and think that it was her responsibility. If she hadn't recommended him, 070, to act as the sect leader, none of this would have happened. But he would deal with whatever came his way. This was bound to happen sooner or later.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it, Ling'er, don't overthink it." He said, patting Ling'er's head.
Because Xiao Yi had been acting erratically on his way back, the effects of the Beast God's blood causing him to go berserk. However, fearing discovery of his secret, he followed a small path, only stopping when he passed a village...
As he watched the children playing at the village entrance, a wave of unease washed over him, and waves of hunger surged through his stomach. He knew he needed blood and wanted to leave quickly, but the thought of Lin Xieyao taking his place as sect leader fueled his rage. Coupled with the effects of the Beast God Blood, he walked step by step toward the innocent children, killed them, and then headed toward the village.
When he came out, the village behind him was deserted. Xiao Yi had slaughtered so many people for his own selfish reasons. He stumbled to the river and washed the blood off his body. This was the first time he had killed so many people today. Instead of feeling guilty, he felt a strange sense of pleasure.
He blamed everything on Lin Xieyao, believing it was all his fault. He also blamed his master, saying that if Lin hadn't sent him to infiltrate the Demonic Sect, he wouldn't have drunk the Beast God's blood and gone mad killing people. He blamed them all for wanting him dead. Xiao Yi quickly cleaned himself up and left, as being discovered at the foot of Qingyun Mountain would be disastrous.
However, this matter was still discovered. Several disciples who went to train found that their village had been massacred. This was the first major incident that happened after Lin Xieyao took office. He went to investigate without hesitation and found that everyone had claw marks similar to those of wild animals on their necks, but wild animals would not kill everyone.
After all, people now know how to defend against these wild beasts. After thinking it over, Lin Xieyao realized that Xiao Yicai was one of those who had drunk the Beast God's Hemostatic Drink; he was the one who had drunk it.
Moreover, when he has an attack, he grows sharp claws and teeth. He was so insane that he slaughtered an entire village, including infants less than a month old.
These sect members claim to be righteous, yet they still do things that are worse than pigs and dogs. He knew that he and Xiao Yicai were already mortal enemies, and during the investigation, he found the jade pendant that Xiao Yicai always carried, but he didn't make a fuss and just quietly put it away for future use.
Moreover, he felt that if he said Xiao Yi was the murderer now, no one would believe him. After all, Xiao Yi was the sect leader's disciple, had a good reputation in the sect, and had even sacrificed himself to infiltrate the sect. He was definitely a good person and would not do something that only members of the Demonic Sect would do. So he thought he should lure the snake out of its hole.
He arranged to meet Xiao Yicai on the back mountain of the main peak the next afternoon. Xiao Yicai arrived that day. There was no one around. As soon as they met, Lin Xieyao went straight to the point and said, "Senior Brother Xiao, do you know that a village was massacred a few days ago? We searched the scene for a long time and found many claw marks of wild animals. We speculate that it was caused by demonic beasts."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi was overjoyed and said, "It must be them. These monsters are mindless and extremely violent. They must be the ones who stormed into the village and killed the villagers."
"Really? Senior brother thinks so too."
"Of course, otherwise how would my junior brother explain those beast claw marks?"
"Junior brother, I've heard people say that those who drink the Beast God's Hemostatic Drink can suddenly become violent and transform into a berserk state." Upon hearing Lin Xieyao say this, Xiao Yicai's pupils contracted in response, and he said, "Junior brother, what are you saying? I've traveled all over the country for so many years and I've never heard of such a thing."
"Does Senior Brother recognize this?" After saying that, he took out the jade pendant he had found and asked, "Don't you recognize this, Senior Brother?"
"Since you already know, why bother asking here? But I'm curious, how do you know about the Blood of the Beast God?"
"You don't need to worry about how I knew, senior brother. Since you've admitted it yourself, come back to the sect with me and await further instructions."
"Hahahaha." Xiao Yi laughed loudly a few times.
"Do you think I didn't make any preparations since I came here? I haven't even settled accounts with you for taking my position as sect leader, and you've already come to cause trouble for me ahead of time. Well then, today is your death day," Xiao Yi said.
"Senior Brother Xiao, don't you know the saying, 'You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth'? How do you think I know about your affairs? Do you think I would dare to call you out if I didn't have some ability? When you returned to the sect that day, I knew you must be harboring resentment, and I knew that there would be a battle between us. But I didn't know that you would actually go and massacre a village. Isn't this heaven helping me, giving me the opportunity to kill you and get rid of this major threat?"
"Haha... Lin Xieyao, you're truly shameless! Don't you even know your own status? You've gone from pheasant to phoenix, thinking you can climb up to that old bastard Tian Buyi..."
Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Great Battle (Part Two)
"Whether I can reach the pinnacle of life, I don't know, but I do know that you'll probably only reach this point in your life," Lin Xieyao said.
"Enough with the nonsense, let's see what you've got." With that, he drew his sword and lunged at Lin Xieyao. Lin Xieyao dodged, then spun around and struck from the side, catching Xiao Yi off guard.
He was somewhat surprised. Lin Xieyao had made such rapid progress in just a few days. It seemed that he had to eliminate this kid today, otherwise he would definitely hinder his actions in the future. Thinking this, he let out a low shout, rose up from the ground, and chanted, "The righteous spirit of heaven and earth will live on forever. I do not seek to kill immortals, but only to slay ghosts and gods." He twirled the sword in the air and rushed towards Lin Xieyao.
However, Lin Xieyao was not afraid because he already knew that this was Xiao Yicai's Seven Swords Dragon Slaying Technique. It sounded incredible, and although this sword technique looked fierce and powerful, it also had a weakness: Xiao Yicai's sword technique was full of righteous energy, and one had to be righteous at heart.
However, harboring ulterior motives himself, he naturally couldn't unleash even a tenth of the power of this sword technique. As he spoke, he met Xiao Yicai's attack head-on.
"Nine Heavens Mysterious Temple, transform into divine thunder, awe-inspiring heavenly might, guided by the sword," as he recited this incantation, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and a purple streak slashed towards Xiao Yicai's sword energy, its momentum undiminished, striking Xiao Yicai's body.
Xiao Yicai, in a moment of carelessness, was struck by lightning and fell from the sky, clutching his chest and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"How...how could you possibly possess the Divine Sword Thunder Control Technique of our Qingyun Sect?"
"What's so strange about that? I'm the sect leader now, so naturally I can see all the sect's techniques. To tell you the truth, this sword technique was personally taught to me by my Uncle Wan Jianyi. At the time, Uncle Wan even praised me, saying that I was a genius with unlimited potential."
"You..." He spat out another mouthful of blood, "If you hadn't cheated, this position would be mine right now, and I would be the one who was taught and praised by Uncle Wan."
Perhaps it was because he was provoked by Lin Xieyao that he was on the verge of collapse. He roared to the sky, his eyes filled with bloodlust as he looked at Lin Xieyao. Slowly, his fingernails grew long, looking like sharp swords, gleaming coldly, and his teeth also grew out. He looked at Lin Xieyao, ready to pounce on him and tear him to shreds.
Hearing the commotion on the back mountain, Tian Buyi and his group rushed over. When they arrived, they were startled by Xiao Yicai's berserk state. When Xiao Yicai saw Tian Buyi and the others arrive, he realized that it was too late to dodge. He belatedly realized that this was Lin Xieyao's conspiracy, which was to make Tian Buyi and the others see him in this state.
Otherwise, based on his own words, he certainly couldn't do anything to him. After all, he had been in the sect for so many years, and had endured humiliation while infiltrating the Demonic Sect for the sect's sake.
Qingyun Sect is also our own; how could we possibly do such things? But now it's too late for regrets.
Since the matter had been exposed, he was determined to drag the unlucky one down with him, so he rushed towards Lin Xieyao. However, Tian Buyi flashed forward again, pushed Xiao Yicai away with a palm, and turned around to ask Lin Xieyao what was going on.
Lin Xieyao replied, "That day, when I went to the village to investigate, I accidentally found Xiao Yicai's jade pendant. However, I dared not make a fuss. After all, Senior Brother Xiao is the sect leader's disciple, and he risked his life to infiltrate the Demonic Sect for the sake of the sect. Wouldn't it be too hasty for me to conclude that he was the one who massacred the village based on just one piece of jade pendant?"
"So, I thought I'd invite Senior Brother Xiao over today to discuss things. But when he arrived, he immediately attacked me with harsh words, wanting my life, accusing me of stealing his position as sect leader. He wouldn't listen to my explanation and started fighting me. I injured him, and in his anger, he went berserk, transforming into a beastman. Only then did I realize that the person who massacred the village that day was indeed him."
After listening to Lin Xieyao's words, Tian Buyi, Shuiyue, and the others were stunned for a long time. They did not expect that Xiao Yicai, who was usually gentle and the successor of the sect leader, would do such a disgraceful thing to the sect.
0-ooo Requesting flowers
Therefore, Tian Buyi and the others asked Xiao Yicai, "Yicai, is there something you're having trouble telling us?"
"Stop pretending here. If it weren't for Lin Xieyao taking your position as sect leader, that position would have been mine, mine..." As he spoke, he lost control and rushed towards Tian Buyi, but was stopped by the other disciples.
Tian Buyi discussed with the other elders, saying, "Although Yi Cai has done something that is intolerable to heaven and earth, he is, after all, the sect leader's personal disciple. Why don't we temporarily detain him and wait until the sect leader comes out of seclusion before judging his crime?"
0 ...
"That's all we can do. I hope he takes care of himself." After saying that, he ordered the other disciples to lock Xiao Yi away. He then turned to Lin Xieyao and asked if he was injured and urged him to go back and rest.
Lin Xieyao was overjoyed at the moment for getting rid of a major worry. As the saying goes, "Every man for himself," and that was his style of doing things.
The day after he exposed Xiao Yicai, rumors spread throughout the sect about how Lin Xieyao poked and prodded Xiao Yicai's fake face, saying that Xiao Yicai was a traitor who had actually done such a heartbreaking and insane thing...
As the saying goes, people follow the crowd, and this story spread like wildfire, with everyone saying that Lin Xieyao was a man of great righteousness and unyielding integrity. Upon hearing this, Lin Xieyao laughed and cried, thinking that he aspired to be a great demon king, so how did he end up as a righteous good guy? How interesting!
Several months have passed since the last great battle between good and evil. According to the original schedule, Biyao should have died for Zhang Xiaofan. However, because of my arrival, this did not happen. What should I do about the matter of the Zhuxian Sword slaying the Beast God? I need to think about it carefully, otherwise I might be worn down to death by these immortals here.
The thought made him feel suffocated. He held a high position and had to be constantly on guard against others plotting against him. He didn't want to end up like Dao Xuan, who almost got killed by Cang Song.
Chapter Thirty: Teaching a Scumbag a Lesson
Since there was basically nothing for him to worry about in the sect, he wanted to go see Biyao. After all, they hadn't seen each other since their last meeting at Liubo Mountain, and to be honest, he missed her quite a bit.
As he pondered this, he decided that action was better than inaction. Without thinking, he got up, intending to go to Fox Ridge Mountain to find Biyao. Just then, Tian Ling'er appeared, saying she wanted Ling Xieyao to accompany her shopping. What a terrible coincidence! He had finally managed to go see Biyao…
Sigh, what can I do? I'm just so charming. When Tian Ling'er saw that Lin Xieyao didn't answer, she thought he was unwilling, so she said, "Senior Brother Lin, is there something you need? If you're having trouble, you don't have to stay with Ling'er." As she spoke, her eyes reddened, and tears seemed to be about to fall.
Upon seeing this, Lin Xieyao quickly said, "Still calling me 'Senior Brother'? Shouldn't '073' call me 'Husband'? Besides, I'm happy to accompany my own wife shopping. Don't be in a hurry. Why do I suspect that you don't want to?"
Really?"
