c1235: 1239: Speculation (Part 1)

Are you kidding me!

How is that possible!

A little hill outside is actually that formidable?

That’s way too fake!

Even if their Secret Realm sect rarely shows itself, they still know a bit about the outside world.

Namely, that its Spiritual Qi has withered to a terrifying degree.

It’s almost no different from having no Spiritual Qi at all.

Not to mention Princess Consort Le, who has already lived in the outside world for several years.

It’s just that, looking at Lin Xi’s expression, she clearly wasn’t joking.

They immediately sank into confusion again.

However, they didn’t keep pressing about this matter.

Right now, the most important thing was still the situation in their Leqing Sect, and their own safety.

Since Yue Ying could so precisely target and hunt them down,

even Princess Consort Le, who was in the outside world, hadn’t been spared.

Judging by this, this matter was really anything but ordinary.

Princess Consort Le couldn’t help asking, "Little Yue Chan, what exactly happened in the sect?"

"And also, how did the Sect Leader end up gone?"

When she said the last part, her tone clearly dipped a little.

Only she herself knew how deep her feelings for the Sect Leader ran; after all, in the eyes of the people in the sect, she had never had any good reputation.

Yet the Sect Leader had been like a gentle and kind older sister, never caring about anyone else’s opinion.

So the moment she heard the Sect Leader was gone, she said nothing, and rushed straight back to the Secret Realm she had left for many years.

Because she couldn’t believe that, with the Sect Leader’s health and strength, something like this would happen before sixty.

This was simply unbelievable.

In fact, it wasn’t just her; even the others in the sect found it hard to believe.

It was just that the Sect Leader’s second disciple had said she’d contracted some illness.

On top of that, none of the Innate Powerhouses in the sect stood up, or voiced any differing opinion.

Precisely because of that, no one went to question it face to face.

Gradually, everyone also started to accept this explanation.

Yue Chan and Leng Qin exchanged a look, hatred they couldn’t hide surfacing on both their faces.

Yue Chan said, "Master did not die from sickness!"

"She was killed by Junior Sister’s scheming."

The moment those words came out, aside from Lin Xi, Princess Consort Le and Red Moon were both stunned, especially Red Moon.

In her eyes, Yue Ying was flawless in everything she did, and in everyone’s eyes she was an extremely good person.

Toward her master, she was even more extraordinarily filial.

How could she possibly plot against her master?

This......impossible!

It was just that, if it wasn’t like this, then everything in front of her baffled her even more.

Unless, something had been misunderstood in the middle.

Princess Consort Le’s face sank; she said coldly, "Tell it in detail."

Yue Chan continued, "That day I was out on a mission with some junior sisters!"

"When we were coming back, before we even reached the sect, Sister Qin rushed over to tell me that Master was gone."

"I thought she was joking. After all, Master had always been very healthy, showing no sign of any illness at all."

"And Master had never mentioned anything like this to me."

"That’s absolutely impossible. If Master had any problem, she wouldn’t hide it from me, and I’ve never noticed any abnormality in her body."

"It was just that Sister Qin told me to leave the sect immediately, or it would be too late."

"After that Sister Qin told me,...."

When she got to this point, her emotions were clearly off, her voice already choked.

Beside her, Leng Qin patted her back and said, "Let me take it from here."

Princess Consort Le nodded, voicing no objection.

"Ten minutes before Little Yue Chan got back, I had some business and went to see the Sect Leader."
