"I came here just to ask you for a monk."

Zhang Haiyun saw that he did not look fake, and became more and more confused. He frowned and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Tian Qiutong, Fellow Daoist Tian."

Anle looked at the door of Zhang Haiyun's residence: "She should be in your room now, right?"

Zhang Haiyun frowned, somewhat not understanding what Anle meant.

"Why did you look for her?"

"This Fellow Daoist Tian is a spy of the Great Tai Dynasty. If we don't get rid of her, the Qinghan Branch will be in danger when the inside and outside join forces."

Hearing this, Zhang Haiyun became furious and shouted angrily: "What nonsense! It's bullshit!"

"Fellow Daoist Tian is a cultivator who has been here since the establishment of the Qinghan Branch Temple. He is loyal to this temple and has never overstepped his authority. How could he be a spy of the Great Tai Dynasty?"

"Even if you want to find an excuse to cause trouble, you should find one that's a little more decent, right?"

Zhang Haiyun was obviously really angry, the aura of his Nascent Soul overflowed, and even the air became sticky and heavy.

The various magic arrays inside the Qinghan Branch Hall were also pulled by this aura, as if they were ready to explode at any moment.

Not far away, the monks from the Qinghan Branch Hall also spoke up.

"I have known Fellow Daoist Tian for so many years, and I have never heard of any connection between her and the Great Tai Dynasty."

"This is absolutely slanderous!"

"Palace Master Zhang, you must not hand us over. Otherwise, won't it make us look weak and vulnerable?"

The Qinghan Branch Hall is only this big, and due to its closed and remote location, the relationship between the monks is much closer than that in the outside world.

Not to mention, the atmosphere here is a bit absurd.

With Tian Qiutong's qualifications, there are quite a few monks who have had physical contact with her.

Naturally no one would believe Anle's unfounded words, which instead aroused people's anger.

For a time, the crowd was excited and Anle and others became the target of public criticism.

In response to this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but frown slightly and looked at Anle with some concern.

'Is he really sure?'

But facing this situation, Anle remained calm: "Whether it is yes or no, your words do not count."

"Why not let Fellow Daoist Tian come out and confront me face to face? The result will be clear at a glance."

His eyes were sharp, and he looked at Zhang Haiyun fearlessly: "What do you think, Lord Zhang?"

Zhang Haiyun's eyes flickered, and he sneered, "Why?"

"Just based on your few words, are you going to ask our disciples to confront you?"

"Don't bully others too much!"

"Ugh……"

An Le sighed faintly: "I understand that Lord Zhang is worried about his daughter, but the situation is urgent now, so please forgive us, Lord Zhang."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

"daughter?"

"Tian Qiutong is Palace Master Zhang's daughter, this...?"

The monks of the Qinghan Branch Temple looked surprised. They had never heard of any rumors related to this matter in the Qinghan Branch Temple.

This time, even Ye Ling'er looked at Anle in surprise, shocked by the amount of information revealed in this sentence.

Zhang Haiyun's eyes widened, and he shouted in disbelief, "How did he know that?"

He had not even mentioned this secret to his bedmate. In the entire Qinghan branch, only he and Tian Qiutong knew about it.

Zhang Haiyun even planned to keep this secret in his heart for the rest of his life.

Being pointed out by Anle on the spot, he was naturally shocked and angry. He didn't understand where Anle got the news from and why he could say it so confidently.

Zhang Haiyun lost his composure for only a very short moment, and soon recovered his normal expression, and shouted in a deep voice: "Nonsense, you don't know what you are talking about!"

But those present were all cultivators of a high level, with extremely sharp spiritual awareness, and they all vaguely sensed the change in his state of mind.

As a result, I became more and more surprised.

"Is this... true?"

"Doesn't that mean..."

An Le continued to speak slowly: "Not only do I know that Fellow Daoist Tian is your biological daughter, I also know that her biological mother is named Tian Chunhua, the previous master of the Qinghan Branch Hall."

"It is because of her that you can legitimately take the position of the Palace Master."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of several older monks changed slightly. They were the older generation of the Qinghan Branch Hall and naturally had heard of this name.

"Why does Anle even know the name of the previous Palace Master?"

"How much does he know?"

Anle didn't care about what others thought at all and stared at Zhang Haiyun with burning eyes.

"It's just that Tian Chunhua didn't expect that you, Zhang Haiyun, would do such a shameful thing to your own daughter."

"In order to conceal the truth, you transferred away most of the elderly people who knew the truth, buried the past, and spent decades of hard work to turn this place into a place where you have the final say."

"And in order to take care of your daughter, you deliberately arranged the most leisurely job for her - guarding the entrance and exit of the fortress. You also gave her control of part of the array's core, which also caused disasters."

After Anle finished speaking, the surroundings were completely silent and quiet.

The crowd was no longer as excited as before.

Everyone looked at Zhang Haiyun with extremely complicated eyes, waiting for his response.

Although the atmosphere in the Qinghan branch temple is open, it has not reached the point where human ethics are disregarded.

If the secrets revealed by Anle were all true, Zhang Haiyun's prestige would undoubtedly suffer a great blow.

Zhang Haiyun's face was as gloomy as water, and the fear in his heart was like a raging storm.

He didn't expect that Anle not only knew the deepest secrets in his heart, but also knew them in such detail, even knowing the cause and effect clearly.

Even if there are still some errors in the details, the basics are pretty close.

"It is impossible that he found this out on his own. There must be other forces secretly helping him."

"Is it the Jiang family? Or my enemy?"

"Or... from the very beginning, Anle's target was me, and he wanted to pull me down from this position?"

Zhang Haiyun was horrified when he thought about it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was conspiracy and malice involved.

His greed for power also determined that he would speculate in this direction.

However, as a Nascent Soul, Zhang Haiyun's concentration far exceeds that of ordinary people. On the surface, he can still act as if nothing has happened and said coldly: "I don't understand what you are saying."

"Let alone the fact that you have been making up some untrue things since just now, I want to ask you, is there any connection between this and the Great Tai Dynasty?"

"How do you prove that Fellow Daoist Tian is a spy of the Great Tai Dynasty?"

Zhang Haiyun saw it very clearly. As the master of the Qinghan branch hall, his authority in the hearts of the people was definitely higher than that of Anle.

As long as he refuses to admit it, no matter how much Anle talks, the majority of people will believe in him.

"I still say the same thing. As long as Fellow Daoist Tian comes forward, the truth will come out naturally."

Anle turned around and glanced at the monks gathered nearby: "Don't you want to prove Fellow Daoist Tian's innocence?"

By this time, the crowd was no longer as hostile as it had been at the beginning.

Even though they didn't want to admit it, based on their understanding of Zhang Haiyun, such a scandal could really happen.

The credibility of Anle's words has also been greatly improved as a result.

Someone said, "Palace Master Zhang, why don't you let Fellow Daoist Tian come forward? Once he's proven innocent, it won't be too late to deal with him then."

"Yes, I believe that Fellow Daoist Tian has a clear conscience, so what is there to be afraid of?"

Most people still believed that Tian Qiutong would not be a spy of the Da Tai Divine Dynasty. They just wanted to prove her innocence and give Anle a slap in the face, so they made such an appeal.

This is exactly why Anle does not hide his whereabouts.

He just wanted to attract everyone and make this matter as big as possible!

Zhang Haiyun's eyes were filled with deep and sinister intent, and he thought to himself, "He even figured this out?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Haiyun said to the others: "Fellow Daoist Tian is not feeling well and cannot see anyone for the time being."

"I suspect he knew this, which is why he made such an unreasonable request at this time."

If Zhang Haiyun had said this at the beginning, most people would probably believe him. But at this point, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was trying to shirk responsibility, and they couldn't help but become more suspicious.

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Palace Master Zhang, I'm afraid even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe what you said, right?"

"If Palace Master Zhang refuses to let her out to meet people, then we will have no choice but to force our way in to see her."

As she spoke, a hot and fiery aura emanated from her body, as if she could ignite even the air.

Ye Ling'er also took a step forward.

The fat all over his body trembled slightly, and his huge body brought an exaggerated sense of presence. The eyelids of many monks next to him twitched, feeling a strong crisis.

If this mountain were to fall upon us, it would probably crush an ordinary cultivator into meat paste.

There were also the elite cultivators behind Jiang Yun, Jiang Junliang, Cheng Yuemei... who also revealed a hostile aura.

But Zhang Haiyun still had no intention of avoiding, and he stood in front of everyone, his aura gradually rising.

Seeing this, many monks stood behind him and confronted Anle and others.

No matter how much of a bastard Zhang Haiyun is, most of them have received his kindness and training, so they will naturally stand on his side.

But now, they can no longer be as confident as before.

Just as the atmosphere between the two sides was becoming increasingly tense.

"Father, stop it."

A hoarse female voice came from Zhang Haiyun's room.

The door was pushed open from the inside and Tian Qiutong walked out.

She was pale and breathing weakly, and looked like she was suffering from some illness.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yun couldn't help but be surprised: "So he really didn't lie?"

Ye Ling'er looked at Tian Qiutong not far away, sniffed slightly, and thought: "This breath..."

"Qiu Tong..."

Zhang Haiyun's expression froze, and guilt flashed in his eyes: "You shouldn't have come out."

Tian Qiutong smiled and looked at Anle: "Friend An, I heard everything you said just now."

"It's just that you are wrong about one thing."

"It wasn't my father who did that to me. I seduced him. He didn't want to damage my reputation, so he hid my identity."

Anle shook his head: "I am not interested in your family's private affairs."

"I just want to ask, why do you work for the Great Tai Dynasty?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Tian Qiutong.

They were extremely nervous. Her answer at this moment would undoubtedly determine the direction of the situation and the future of the entire Qinghan Branch.

Tian Qiutong frowned, anger flashing on her pretty face: "Friend An, you can call me fickle and say I'm unfaithful to my husband, but why are you throwing this basin of dirty water on my head?"

"I swear to God that I, Tian Qiutong, am definitely not a spy of the Great Tai Dynasty. Otherwise, my golden elixir would be shattered, my intestines would be rotten, and I would die without a burial place!"

As she spoke, obscure fluctuations were faintly heard in the air.

Immortal practitioners never swear oaths casually, because the oath itself carries a unique power and is connected to heaven.

"The pledge is established."

Jiang Yun narrowed her eyes and looked at An Le beside her: "My Qi-reading technique can verify the truth of words. She... is not lying."

She was in a weirder mood than ever before.
