Chapter 132: Framing the Tiger
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence.
Everyone thought it was a personal grudge, who would have thought that Bai Lan's reason for taking action was so legitimate?
If it is true that Bai Ling is colluding with the evil cultivators...it would seem that Master Qingxuan is being unreasonable.
Without asking for the reason, he directly attacked the disciples in the sect.
The anger in Master Qingxuan's eyes grew even stronger. Master Qinghe beside him couldn't help but let out a laugh, but he quickly suppressed it and said in a deep voice: "Well? Since you said so, do you have any evidence?"
"Produce the evidence! Bai Lan, don't even think about slandering me with empty words!" With someone's support, Bai Ling's speech became more powerful.
"A month ago, I went to Jinyuan City to explore a secret place because I had an appointment with a fellow cultivator. But I was unexpectedly captured by the evil cultivator gang!"
Bai Lan's eyes were full of anger, and he pointed at Bai Ling: "I happened to meet Uncle Bai passing by. I saw with my own eyes that she used evil cultivation methods to summon corpse puppets to save herself, but she didn't care about the lives of other righteous cultivators at all, and turned around and left. She was very cruel!"
She acted in the scene, so of course she remembered all the details clearly.
Worried that doing good deeds would create trouble for Bai Ling, she even delayed rescuing the people in the dungeon and gave the good guy card to Qiu Tian to play.
Bai Ling was stunned. She grabbed Qing Xuan Zhenren's sleeve and said, "Master, she is lying. I have been staying at Yuqing Peak quietly these days. How could it be possible that..."
"Nonsense! I clearly heard your second senior brother say that he often took you out of the sect to have fun these days. How can you say he was quiet? He was obviously out refining corpse puppets!" Bai Lan looked at Nangong Yuan: "I heard it with my own ears, and many people here must have heard it too!"
Nan Xianzhi snorted and laughed, then nodded, "Indeed, I was there at the time and heard it clearly. Nangong Yuan said to Bai Ling - Junior Sister, don't be angry. Senior Brother will secretly take you out of the sect to play for a few days?"
Nangong Yuan gritted his teeth in anger: "......"
A cold look flashed in Master Qinghe's eyes.
Regardless of whether Bai Ling's evil cultivation was true or false, Master Qingxuan did not care about the fact that she sneaked out of the sect, but Master Qinghe did.
Bai Ling and Lan Ning are very close friends, so there is no guarantee that she will not have any entanglements with other members of the demon clan.
Taoist Qingxuan dotes on his disciple and insists that Bai Ling has done nothing wrong. They can take a step back and not pursue the matter any further, but that does not mean that Bai Ling's suspicion has been cleared and they can do whatever they want.
"Junior Brother Qingxuan, you must manage your disciples well. You are harming her by indulging her like this." Master Qinghe shook his head helplessly.
"...I know my limits." Qing Xuan Zhenren glanced at the culprit Nangong Yuan, then looked at Bai Lan and said in a cold voice: "Words are not enough. You said Ling'er had been to Jinyuan City, so show us the evidence first."
"..."
Evidence? She was the evidence.
The frame-up was as fierce as a tiger, but when it came to evidence, there was nothing at all.
But it doesn't matter. Bai Lan didn't want to win this lawsuit at all. She just wanted to send herself to the Cliff of Repentance...
Just as Bai Lan was about to continue his performance, a disciple stopped his sword in mid-air and saluted with his fists clasped.
"Reporting to the sect master and elders, Danzhu, the direct disciple of True Man Hongxiao of the Hehuan Sect, wants to see you. He says that..." The disciple who was reporting suddenly stopped talking here, glanced at True Man Qingxuan who was standing beside him, and his expression paused.
Seeing this, Master Qinghe raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Master Qingxuan beside him thoughtfully, and then said to the disciple who came to report, in a gentle voice: "Jing'er, don't hesitate, just say what you want to say."
The disciple clasped his fists and saluted again, and said in a deep voice: "Dan Zhu said that she wanted to report Qing Xuan Zhenren's direct disciple Bai Ling for colluding with the devil cultivators and refining corpse puppets, which was unworthy of being a righteous cultivator..."
Bai Ling's expression of watching the show froze again, and she looked stiffly at Bai Lan, her eyes full of confusion.
Didn't Bai Lan deliberately frame her? How did she get involved with the monks of the Hehuan Sect?
Both the master and the disciple had suffered losses at the hands of the Hehuan Sect to varying degrees, and now when they heard this name, they both had some psychological trauma.
"Hmm? Is there such a thing? What a coincidence..." Master Qinghe's brows relaxed and he nodded with a smile: "Please invite the nephew of the Hehuan Sect to come in and tell me in detail."
It turns out that the female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect was named Danzhu.
Bai Lan lowered his head and thought for a moment. According to the time, the disciple of the Hehuan Sect had indeed just recovered from his injuries.
In less than a moment, the familiar female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect arrived at the scene, and was shocked by the scene the next second.
"Junior sister, don't be afraid. Master and I are here to support you. Just speak with confidence!" The female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect who was beside Danzhu patted her on the shoulder and spoke in a deep voice.
The next moment, Danzhu saw Bai Ling's face clearly in the distance, and immediately became angry: "It's her! It's her!"
"Master Qinghe, Master Qingxuan, I want to report Qingyuan Sect's inner sect disciple Bai Ling. This girl is definitely not a righteous cultivator. She must be an evil cultivator! I saw with my own eyes that she manipulated corpse puppets, colluded with evil cultivators, and put her fellow disciples to death without caring. You must not be kept in the dark by her!" The female cultivator named Danzhu pointed at Bai Ling and spoke angrily.
Unlike Bai Lan who was acting, what she said came from the heart.
It's all emotion, no acting.
Two witnesses...
Qinghe Zhenren had a gentle smile on his lips: "Tell me in detail..."
“Wait a minute, do you dare to swear an oath to your inner demon and guarantee what you said!?” Taoist Qingxuan spoke first.
Qingxuan doesn't think that Bai Ling would do such a thing. He believes in Bai Ling and still thinks that Bai Lan and Dan Zhu are slandering his disciple.
Before Bai Lan could speak, Dan Zhu stepped forward and said, "I, Dan Zhu, swear here that if I say even a single word of falsehood today, I will not make any progress in my cultivation in this life, and I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Bai Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was just making it up and swore she would be exposed.
But that’s not the case with Danzhu. To her, every word she said was the truth.
Seeing Danzhu swear so neatly and decisively, even Master Qingxuan couldn't help but choke.
Seeing this, Master Qinghe raised his eyebrows slightly, and the smile in his eyes became even wider. He pointed at Bai Lan and said, "Then, do you recognize this person?"
Bai Lan closed his eyes.
No, I have already sworn an oath to the devil, and the evidence is solid, so I have to point the finger at her in the end.
Danzhu suppressed his anger and looked at Bai Lan, stunned for a moment: "She is..."
"Fellow Daoist! Don't you recognize me? I am also one of the cultivators abducted by the Evil Gang!" Bai Lan suddenly spoke excitedly: "In the dungeon, I was the female cultivator tied to the pillar behind you!"
