The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 894 - 284: One Arrow, Four Hawks—A Bone-Chilling Scheme!
Dubhe said somewhat awkwardly, "Because that illness was deliberately caused by us!"
As soon as the words fell, Yun Jing and the other three erupted simultaneously, their spiritual power swirling uncontrollably, and their robes fluttering.
If not for being intimidated by Cao Zhengyang’s aura, they might have rushed up to tear Dubhe apart.
"It wasn’t me!" Dubhe had already anticipated their reaction, hastily retreating in defense, "It was Brother Yuheng, he was the mastermind!"
"What exactly happened?" Yun Jing’s voice was icy, restraining her anger as she questioned.
She didn’t care who exactly did it; after all, since the secrets of Phecda Sect were revealed until now, almost all the blame was thrown on the already deceased Master Yuheng, everything left without verification.
Cao Zhengyang and the others frowned slightly, their bodies leaning forward slightly, silently waiting for the next words.
Dubhe shrank his neck, his voice trembling, "The infiltration of spies among our Five Sects is an open secret, that’s undeniable by anyone."
Speaking to this point, he stole a glance at Yun Jing and the others, whose eyes seemed almost to burst into flames, swallowed his saliva, and continued.
"Of course, after Immortal Xuan You entered the sect, she remained inconspicuous for a long time until our spy inadvertently discovered that when she meditated in cultivation, the surroundings became extraordinarily quiet."
"In other words, the usual insect chirping or bird calls would immediately stop, fearing to disturb her."
Yun Jing and her companions looked solemn, remaining silent, while Cao Zhengyang and the others cast curious glances, showing thoughtful expressions.
After all, the matter about Immortal Xuan You had already been conveyed to them by Mo Xingjian, especially since they previously considered Ghost Mastiff as Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown.
It was unexpected that Phecda Sect was involved in this as well.
Seeing this, Dubhe continued, "After thorough investigation, we confirmed Xuan You had a special constitution known as the Celestial Law Silence Body."
He licked his dry lips, a hint of harshness flashing in his eyes, "This constitution is useless to Phecda Sect, but it is precisely the cultivation foundation Cyan Feather Immortal Sect dreams of."
"Possessors of this constitution can excel in sound attack, and will definitely become a leading figure in Cyan Feather Immortal Sect."
"Originally, we wanted to eliminate her early, but Brother Yuheng considered that she might be of great use in the future."
"So, we first poisoned her and guided you to discover it. Sure enough, she quickly became your key Core Disciple to cultivate."
Upon hearing this, Yun Jing and her allies were already seething with rage.
Their aura fluctuated, and the surrounding air was twisted into ripples,
especially thinking of their Sect Leader suffering inhuman torment and agony each night for so many years, they wished to make Dubhe unable to live or die right now.
Zhou Qing frowned deeply.
After all, that time when Immortal Xuan You visited the sect, Second Uncle had secretly taken him to spy.
He even witnessed the pain Xuan You was subjected to, and afterwards, he was almost discovered, managing to pass it off as sleepwalking to dispel suspicion.
"Despicable!" The four of them cursed with clenched teeth, their eyes red with fury.
They never expected that the suffering Xuan You went through was actually calculated by Phecda Sect early on.
Dubhe continued on his own, "Afterward, everything developed normally until the poison outbreak made you think she fell ill."
"Then, we had Dong Ninggui... who was a Elder of your Cyan Feather Immortal Sect at the time, he was one of ours. Unfortunately, he was later eliminated by you, and had him deliberately mention the ’Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique.’
Yun Jing and the others recalled the scene from the past, connecting these dots, and suddenly realized.
At this moment, their bodies were trembling, and the green bricks underfoot cracked inch by inch, constantly on the verge of going berserk.
"This Forbidden Technique can save lives and enable rapid advancement but completely cuts off the future path, at most allowing cultivation to the late stage of Divinity Transformation Realm, with no more progress possible."
"One can only slowly deplete one’s lifespan and die, no, more quickly than those of the same realm," Dubhe answered honestly.
Cao Zhengyang and the others quietly watched all this, feeling a chill running down their necks.
This Phecda Sect’s arrangement was indeed far-reaching, with each step so intricately linked.
No wonder Immortal Xuan You suddenly became the Sect Leader of Cyan Feather Immortal Sect back then, it turns out it was because of this.
And Zhou Qing at this moment couldn’t help but think of Second Uncle.
He also mentioned that Immortal Xuan You was the last to enter, at that time he had just faked death and left, unexpectedly when they met again, not only had the girl rapidly advanced, but had also become Sect Leader.
He even said if he could attain Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown in the future and dual cultivate with her, unimaginable benefits would be obtained.
Now it seems, these benefits stem from Immortal Xuan You’s special constitution.
Seeing the atmosphere wasn’t right, Dubhe hurriedly explained, "It was all orchestrated by Brother Yuheng, I was merely executing orders, it has nothing to do with me!"
Cao Zhengyang said coldly, "Continue."
Dubhe had no choice but to swallow a mouthful of saliva, but the conversation shifted, "In fact, we’ve long developed an antidote for this ’Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique.’
With these words, Yun Jing and the other four simultaneously stepped forward, filled with disbelief.
What did they just hear?
An antidote?
Zhou Qing also wore a stunned expression, after all, he and Master Mo Xingjian recently visited Cyan Feather Immortal Sect, witnessing firsthand the tragic state of Xuan You.
The cold sweat streamed down Dubhe’s forehead as he continued, "The antidote is in Brother Yuheng’s Storage Bag, and the dual cultivation talk regarding Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown was just a bait we released on purpose!"
"After all, seeking someone who achieves Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown is nearly impossible. We planned to wait until Xuan You became utterly desperate, then offer the antidote as a lifeline, thereby making her serve us."
