Chapter 40 Making a Move

Gu Li finished speaking, then looked at the Taoist priest beside him and said indignantly, "Someone has actually challenged the rules of our Five Great Immortal Mountains. Doesn't your Shushan have anything to say about this?"

Upon hearing Gu Li's words, Daoist Chang Qing's gaze also fell upon Su Xi with a hint of doubt.

He was curious why a disciple in the Foundation Establishment stage dared to demand they do something. However, because of the good relationship between Shushan and Penglai Mountain, he didn't want to punish Su Xi over a minor issue.

Otherwise, if Lin Qing pursued it, not only he, but the entire Shushan would have a headache.

"Why are you stopping us?" He prepared to find a reasonable excuse to see if he could resolve this matter.

Gu Li understood Daoist Chang Qing's intention and snorted coldly, but he did not refuse his gesture.

After all, the Shushan Sect was still in charge, and he would just wait and see.

Knowing Daoist Chang Qing's identity, Su Xi voiced her thoughts, "There is one more person from the Shushan Sect who hasn't come out."

"One more person?" Daoist Chang Qing muttered, then exclaimed, "Are you referring to Wu Yufeng?"

As a reserve talent of the Shushan Sect, Daoist Chang Qing naturally paid attention to promising disciples.

Seeing Daoist Chang Qing's interest, Su Xi continued, "Wu Yufeng must still be alive, I just don't know why he hasn't emerged."

After speaking, Su Xi looked at Liu Piaopiao, indicating that this matter was related to her.

She still had a connection with Wu Yufeng through their jade pendant, so Wu Yufeng was definitely not in danger. As for what happened to Wu Yufeng, only Liu Piaopiao knew.

Noticing Su Xi's gaze, Daoist Chang Qing turned his attention to Liu Piaopiao beside him and asked sternly, "What exactly is going on here?"

The Shushan Sect was not to be trifled with.

Moreover, the disciple who had gone missing was the promising Wu Yufeng, and he had to find out the truth.

Facing Daoist Chang Qing's questioning, Liu Piaopiao said with a wronged expression, "If my sister says this, are you implying that I know the whereabouts of Senior Brother Wu Yufeng?"

Su Xi smiled and nodded, admitting frankly, "Yes, you were together last, so naturally only you know his whereabouts."

"I didn't," Liu Piaopiao said, glancing at Gu Li, and flatly denied it.

After all, the final Imprint Talisman had already been taken by Gu Li, so Su Xi had no evidence. With just her words, no one would believe her. As long as she insisted on denying it, no one could do anything to her.

Although Daoist Chang Qing believed Su Xi, he also knew that without evidence, this matter could not be clarified.

"Do you have any proof?" Daoist Chang Qing looked at Su Xi, his words a gentle reminder. To make a final judgment, evidence was necessary.

Su Xi nodded and said, "Of course, I have evidence. I happened to record it with an Imprint Talisman when I had nothing to do. It's with Elder Gu."

Hearing Su Xi's words, Gu Li generously took out the Imprint Talisman from his person and asked with a peculiar expression, "Is this the Imprint Talisman you're talking about?"

Su Xi glanced at the talisman in Gu Li's hand and nodded, admitting, "Precisely!"

Gu Li casually threw out a strand of spiritual energy, activating the Imprint Talisman in his hand.

Soon, two figures appeared in the Imprint Talisman.

Besides Wu Yufeng, whom everyone was concerned about, there was also Su Xi.

In the Imprint Talisman, Su Xi, who was walking with Wu Yufeng, suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into Wu Yufeng, cruelly killing him...

After watching the scene in the Imprint Talisman, everyone looked at Su Xi with strange expressions and fell silent.

The thief crying "stop thief."

One phrase instantly flashed through everyone's minds.

Gu Li put away the Imprint Talisman and looked at Su Xi coldly, asking, "I didn't expect you to be so audacious as to try to fool us. Now, do you have anything else to say?"

Liu Piaopiao looked at the distressed Su Xi and felt unspeakably happy.

She had brought this upon herself. How could Su Xi possibly argue her way out of this now?

She didn't miss this opportunity and pretended to be an innocent flower, adding, "Elders, you must uphold justice for me! How will I live my life after being slandered? What will other disciples think of me?"

Daoist Chang Qing looked at the scene before him, his face showing a hint of difficulty.

Su Xi's situation was not optimistic.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Even though the evidence was conclusive, Daoist Chang Qing inexplicably believed Su Xi. He felt that if she had done this, she must have had a backup plan.

Gu Li did not intervene, merely watching Su Xi with a smile.

He didn't believe Su Xi had any chance of turning the tables in this situation. It was most satisfying to see someone die after falling into despair.

Faced with their questioning, Su Xi remained calm.

If she hadn't been cunning, she would have died countless times in the interstellar world. As expected, cultivators had poor minds and their methods were so clumsy.

Although they had altered the Imprint Talisman, they didn't know about things like cameras.

With video, she could infinitely replicate Imprint Talismans.

Su Xi took out a stack of talismans from her person and displayed them to everyone, "I still have many Imprint Talismans that can fully reflect the events, but some of the content is different."

"You have them too?" Daoist Chang Qing joyfully took the talismans from Su Xi's hands and began to play them.

The content of the Imprint Talisman was slightly different from the one played before, and the protagonist had been changed to Liu Piaopiao.

Liu Piaopiao watched the Imprint Talisman playing before her, her face as dark as water.

She hadn't expected Su Xi to be so bored as to use talismans to record her every word and deed. Even more troublesome was that Su Xi's Imprint Talismans contained scenes of her and Ouyang Yuxin plotting against other disciples.

Seeing the scene before him, Gu Li's smile vanished.

He hadn't expected Su Xi to be so troublesome and so well-prepared.

Daoist Chang Qing now knew that this matter was related to Liu Piaopiao and his expression turned grim. "Where did Wu Yufeng go?"

Facing so much evidence, Liu Piaopiao knew she couldn't explain and could only deflect, "I don't know. He left earlier."

"Oh?" With what had happened before, Daoist Chang Qing was certainly not going to believe Liu Piaopiao so easily.

Since someone wasn't talking, he would have to expend more effort.

The Shushan Sect, besides their superb swordsmanship, was also skilled in interrogation. The methods for making life worse than death were too numerous to list.

To extract the information he wanted from Liu Piaopiao, he wouldn't even need to exert himself.

Sensing Daoist Chang Qing's threat, Liu Piaopiao knew that if she didn't tell the truth, her life might be in danger today. In her panic, her gaze turned to Gu Li for help.

Now, only Gu Li could save her.
