Jiang Ning observed their reactions.

"You pretend to be members of the Demonic Sect, sent by the demoness, but in reality, it was Senior Uncle Zuo who used the name of the Demonic Sect to order you to take action. As long as Senior Uncle Tianmen dies, the Taishan Sect will fall into the hands of his several senior uncles, and then the Taishan Sect will no longer refuse to send troops."

Ji Wuchang sneered, "We didn't say anything, but you're making it sound so convincing. In the end, it's just your guess. If you insist on saying it is, then so be it."

Jiang Ning laughed.

“You have already told me.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuchang's cold smile vanished, and he looked at Jiang Ning with surprise and suspicion, wondering what he meant.

Jiang Ning didn't bother to explain when faced with his gaze.

Sometimes, to get the answer from someone, you don't necessarily have to hear it from their mouth; certain physical reactions can also answer the question.

"It's very simple to find out if you were sent by Master Zuo."

Jiang Ning slowly said, "This time, the support for my Huashan Sect is not only from the Taishan Sect, but also from the Hengshan, Hengshan, Qingcheng, Emei, Shaolin, and Wudang Sects. If these sects were ambushed, it means that you are members of the Demonic Sect. If only the Taishan Sect or only my Five Mountains Sword Sect was attacked, then you were sent by Senior Uncle Zuo."

Hearing Jiang Ning's words, Ji Wuchang's smile vanished, and he stared coldly at Jiang Ning.

next second.

Thump~ Thump~

Several muffled thuds came from Ji Wuchang's body, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and then he fell silent.

Ji Wuchang died by severing his own meridians.

Chapter 274: June, Reunion at Mount Song

died?

Jiang Ning glanced at Ji Wuchang, who lay dead on the ground with his eyes wide open, but his expression remained unchanged.

Ignoring the corpse, Jiang Ning turned his attention to the remaining four people.

As the four men saw Jiang Ning walking towards them step by step, they instinctively dragged themselves backward.

puff!

Jiang Ning plunged his sword into the ground, squatted down, and just stared at the four men without saying a word.

"I'll talk, I'll talk."

Ultimately, one person couldn't withstand the pressure and suffered a mental breakdown.

"The Songshan Sect sent us."

The man pointed at Ji Wuchang's corpse.

"His name is Ji Wuchang, and he has a nickname, Qinghai Yixiao. The Left Alliance Leader ordered him to lead us to ambush here and kill all the Taishan Sect members when they pass by."

The other three glared at him angrily.

"You dare betray Alliance Leader Zuo?"

"How can you face the leader of the Left Alliance?"

The three of them started swearing.

The man looked ashamed, but there was nothing he could do. He had started to get scared when Jiang Ning said he would skin them alive, and his defenses had been broken down after Jiang Ning deduced that Zuo Lengchan had sent them.

Either way, I'm going to die. Since the other party has already guessed it, I might as well just be honest and avoid being tortured.

Hearing his words, Jiang Ning was not surprised. He had already guessed it, but just wanted to confirm it with these people.

However, this is not the issue that Jiang Ning is concerned about right now.

"Besides having you ambush the Taishan Sect, did Zuo Lengchan arrange for anyone else to ambush the Hengshan and Hengshan Sects?"

Jiang Ning said coldly.

"I don't know, I don't know."

The man quickly shook his head: "We only know that the Left Alliance Leader ordered us to ambush the Taishan Sect, but we don't know if he arranged for anyone to ambush the Hengshan Sect and the Hengshan Sect."

Jiang Ning frowned and remained silent upon hearing this.

There was no need for the person to lie if they weren't being tortured.

"Give me a quick death."

The man was pale and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Jiang Ning had already broken his leg, and now he was lying on the snow. The cold wind felt like needles pricking his wound, and the pain almost made him faint.

He had no hope that Jiang Ning would let him go after he spoke out; that was impossible. He only wished for a quick death.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning glanced at him, raised his sword, and casually swung it, sending him to meet the real King of Hell.

The remaining three were also killed.

There was no intention to let them identify Zuo Lengchan alive. These few people couldn't possibly identify him, and Zuo Lengchan would surely deny it to the death. There was no need to waste time on this. It was enough to let Uncle Tianmen and the other two sects know about this.

Jiang Ning got up to leave, heading towards Yue Buqun and the others, but he spotted Linghu Chong's figure in the distance.

"Junior brother, junior brother."

Linghu Chong also saw Jiang Ning and ran while shouting.

"Junior brother, you haven't come back for so long, I thought you had encountered an accident."

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "We caught a few people and spent some time questioning them about who was in charge."

"Aren't they members of the Demonic Cult? Why are we questioning them about that?"

Linghu Chong looked surprised.

"They were sent by the Songshan Sect."

Jiang Ning said.

"what?"

Linghu Chong's eyes widened.

"Aren't we the Five Mountains Alliance? Why is Senior Master Zuo doing this?"

Jiang Ning briefly explained what had happened, then pointed to Ji Wuchang.

"His name is Ji Wuchang, the 'One Tyrant of Qinghai.' This time, he was the one who was ordered by Zuo Lengchan to ambush Tianmen Master Uncle."

"This……"

Linghu Chong still found it hard to believe, but seeing that Jiang Ning's expression didn't seem to be lying, he had no choice but to accept the reality.

"Senior Brother, let's go back."

Jiang Ning said calmly.

"it is good."

Linghu Chong nodded, and then planned to leave with Jiang Ning, but when he looked back at Ji Wuchang's corpse, he couldn't help but laugh.

"This person was called Wuchang (meaning impermanence), but unfortunately he met Yama, the King of Hell. Wuchang meeting Yama, his death was not unjust."

Hearing Linghu Chong's teasing words, Jiang Ning simply smiled and said nothing.

The two returned to their previous location, where they found Yue Buqun, Feng Buping, and Tianmen Daoren.

Tianmen Daoist stared blankly at the corpses of the Taishan Sect disciples on the ground, while Yue Buqun and Feng Buping stood aside, unsure how to comfort them.

"Master, Uncle-Master Feng, Uncle-Master Tianmen."

Linghu Chong was the first to call out.

Yue Buqun turned around and saw that Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong had returned. He asked Jiang Ning, "Did nothing go wrong?"

"No."

Jiang Ning shook his head, then said, "Master, I have already interrogated those people, they are..."

"Sent by Zuo Lengchan?"

Before Jiang Ning could finish speaking, Yue Buqun continued.

"Ah."

Jiang Ning nodded.

Yue Buqun wasn't too surprised and simply nodded.

Tianmen Daoist paused, remaining silent as if he hadn't heard anything.

Jiang Ning continued, "The interrogation has been completed. The one who led the ambush on Master Tianmen this time was Ji Wuchang, a notorious figure from Qinghai, who was instructed by Zuo Lengchan."

"A ruthless tyrant from Qinghai?"

Upon hearing this name, Yue Buqun looked surprised.

They clearly knew this name.

"Master, is this person very famous?"

Linghu Chong was somewhat puzzled.

Yue Buqun glanced at him.

"He's not very famous, but his master is called the White-Boarded Demon Star."

Upon hearing the words "Whiteboard Demon Star," Linghu Chong's eyes showed a look of recollection, as if he had heard the name somewhere before. After thinking carefully, he remembered that when he was young, Ning Zhongze had used this person to scare Yue Lingshan, and Linghu Chong had asked who this person was.

"The Whiteboard Killer is a notorious figure even among the heretics."

Feng Buping's face turned ugly. He said, "It is said that the Whiteboard Fiend has a strange appearance. He has no nose, and his whole face is like a whiteboard. He likes to eat children."

Yue Buqun also frowned: "More than ten years ago, the Whiteboard Killer was infamous in the martial arts world. Then he suddenly disappeared. I thought he was dead. I didn't expect that his disciple had joined Zuo Lengchan. I suppose the Whiteboard Killer is now in the Songshan Sect."

After speaking, Yue Buqun looked at Jiang Ning and asked, "Were the Hengshan Sect and the Hengshan Sect attacked?"

Jiang Ning shook his head.

"Those who attacked Master Tianmen didn't know either."
