Wen Jing said, “I know it sounds unbelievable. Shixiongs, please keep calm, both of you. Let me explain what happened in the past ten years to you two.”

Jun YanZhi had already stopped crying and was quietly standing off to the side, having returned to his elegant and aloof demeanor.

Wen Jing said, “The reason Jun shixiong’s clan was massacred wasn’t because he went crazy but because someone, for some unknown purpose, led a group of demonic cultivators to Heng Yuang palace intentionally to massacre his entire clan. This person not only framed Jun shixiong for these sins, but also intentionally made Jun shixiong misunderstand that shifu was the person who was in charge of the whole thing. Everything that Jun shixiong did when he got older was to kill that person and take revenge. It wasn’t that he wanted to destroy the world. He had almost fallen into that person’s trap and killed shifu.”

Liu QianMo lightly frowned.

Wen Jing continued to say, “Shifu and Jun shixiong had set up a trap to pull out that person, so we rushed back. On the way, we investigated using various methods and can roughly confirm that this person is within the Qing Xu Sword sect. And, we discovered something strange about Sect Head Xi.”

He Ling asked, “What?”

This matter was related to Duan Xuan’s past. It wasn’t good for Wen Jing to say too much about it. Glossing over a few things, he talked about Duan Xuan’s past and then about what they saw in Xi Fang’s mausoleum. 

He bit the bullet and said, “In short, Sect Head Xi has deep shixiong-shidi affections towards Lu shizu, and shifu has deep master-disciple feelings towards Lu shizu. Thus…… there’s the possibility of Sect Head Xi framing shifu.”

These words didn’t make sense at all, but Liu QianMo and He Ling didn’t have the slightest problem understanding. Liu QianMo thoughtfully said, “There are signs of shifu’s deep….. cough…… master-disciple feelings. But Sect Head Xi’s deep…… cough…… shixiong-shidi feelings are unexpected.”

He Ling indifferently said, “We have seen Lu shizu in person.”

Wen Jing blurted out, “A pretty boy?”

Liu QianMo smiled and said, “He looked about twenty-five to twenty-six. His temperament was gentle, giving everyone who saw him a feeling of closeness and kindness. He raised shifu from when he was twelve.”  

Wen Jing felt some admiration before he directed his attention back to them and nodded his head, “Shifu has been summoned by Xi Fang and hasn’t returned for three days. We’re worried that something has happened to him.”

He Ling frowned and said, “What do you plan to do?”

“Save him. Every minute we delay is another minute that shifu’s in danger.” Wen Jing said, “If Xi Fang has the intent, he has probably found out about shifu and shixiong’s interactions and wants to use this opportunity to lure Jun shixiong over, getting rid of them together.”

He Ling said, “You have a way to deal with the Punishing Immortal Tower?”

“That Punishing Immortal Tower isn’t very hard to deal with. If worst comes to worst, I’ll go in again——”

Jun YanZhi immediately grabbed his hand, “You dare.”

“I’m just joking……” Wen Jing whispered, “How could I dare leave you outside by yourself?”
