After watching Su Xi's recorded image, everyone had a direct understanding of what had just happened. It was clear that the enforcement team was at fault.
However, even though the facts were clear, none of the powerful figures present spoke.
Since they were in high positions, they naturally didn't rely solely on brute force; their minds were also sharp.
In the face of absolute power, truth is sometimes unimportant. What matters is what the person in power wants as an answer.
He Wei also finished watching the video from the recorded image and looked at Su Xi, who was not far away, asking calmly, "Do you have anything to say about this matter?"
"I have something to say?" Su Xi looked at He Wei, her face a question mark.
(?_?)
Someone found her sect and came to cause trouble, and now she was being asked to explain herself? Was He Wei out of his mind to ask such an outrageous question?
"What do you want me to say?" Su Xi looked at He Wei, ready to see what tricks he was trying to pull.
"You made this fake recorded image, trying to instigate discord between the enforcement team and the Five Great Immortal Mountains, what exactly is your intention?" With one sentence, He Wei immediately labeled Su Xi as fabricating evidence.
After all, with sufficient strength, the images in the recorded image could also be faked. Although there would be flaws in a forged recorded image, He Wei only needed a plausible explanation.
Su Xi did not expect He Wei to be so shameless, obviously preparing to renege on his word.
However, fortunately, she was prepared and of course would not let He Wei succeed.
Su Xi took out a large pile of recorded images from herself and placed them in front of He Wei. "One recorded image can be fake, but so many recorded images, they can't all be fake, right?"
"My cultivation is so low, I don't have such great ability, nor do I have that much time to deal with it."
He Wei looked at the nearly a hundred recorded images before him, his expression almost cracking. Someone was actually so bored as to make so many recorded images.
Had Su Xi already foreseen his plan and made so many preparations?
Although he had his suspicions, the facts were right in front of him, and he had to deal with it.
There was no turning back once the arrow was shot. He could use this opportunity to find out how many people in the Five Great Immortal Mountains were unwilling to obey the arrangements of their enforcement team.
Thus, he swept his gaze over the powerful figures of the various sects around him, showing a look of difficulty, "This matter is indeed tricky, what do you all think we should do?"
The people from the Five Great Immortal Mountains heard He Wei's words and immediately understood his meaning: he wanted them to take sides.
They cursed him as despicable in their hearts, but they also knew that they had to make a choice.
Lin Qing did not care what the people around her were thinking, she firmly stood by Su Xi's side and said, "I believe the people of Penglai Mountain in this matter."
"Sect Leader Lin, don't be so hasty. I think this matter needs further investigation." Jiang Feng of the Luo Yi Sect said politely, but his words clearly supported He Wei.
His steps involuntarily led him to He Wei's side.
The Luo Yi Sect and Penglai Mountain had long harbored grudges, and now they could use a borrowed knife to kill.
With Lin Qing and Jiang Feng taking the lead, other sects also began to take sides.
After a vote, except for Sect Leader Mengxu Daochang of Shu Mountain, everyone else stood with He Wei.
He Wei looked at Mengxu Daochang, who had not yet taken sides, and squinted, asking, "Mountain Master, what do you mean by this?"
When Mengxu Daochang heard He Wei's question, he knew what he meant and suddenly smiled, "I think Penglai Mountain is not wrong in this matter."
Upon hearing Mengxu Daochang support Penglai Mountain, He Wei was not surprised and instead laughed, "In our cultivation world, we have always adhered to the principle of the majority obeying the minority. Now, we have the advantage in numbers."
Mengxu Daochang looked at He Wei and suddenly changed from his previous meekness to assertiveness, "Now I am the Mountain Master of the Five Great Immortal Mountains, so I have the final say in matters concerning our Five Great Immortal Mountains."
Since the masks had been torn off, he naturally didn't need to hold back anymore.
Looking at Mengxu Daochang, who was preparing to resist him, He Wei laughed, "Daochang Mengxu is right, you are the Mountain Master, and you naturally have the right to manage the Five Great Immortal Mountains."
Saying that, He Wei suddenly changed his tone and questioned, "You should resolve your internal conflicts yourselves, but do you know why the enforcement team came here?"
Mengxu Daochang and Lin Qing exchanged glances, completely unaware of what He Wei meant by this.
They had not considered why the enforcement team was targeting Penglai Mountain.
Was it a new grudge or an old one?
He Wei did not keep them in suspense this time, his eyes revealing a hint of ferocity, "The enforcement team has already mastered that someone among the Five Great Immortal Mountains is colluding with the demon race, and they are here to arrest them."
No one spoke, and they continued to look at He Wei, waiting for his next words.
They had already heard that there were demon race undercover agents in the Five Great Immortal Mountains, and now they didn't know how He Wei's statement related to the current matter.
He Wei pointed at Su Xi with his finger, a sneer on his face, "According to reliable news, she is the prime suspect, and it is very likely that she was the one who brought the demon race into the Five Great Immortal Mountains trial."
"???"
When Su Xi heard He Wei shifting the topic back to her, she genuinely admired his nonsensical talk.
Did this person have a serious illness? Why did he keep dragging her into the matter? There were so many people in the Five Great Immortal Mountains, couldn't he find someone else?
She had a good appetite, but she didn't like to be at a disadvantage.
When Lin Qing heard He Wei's words, she immediately stepped forward and retorted, "Impossible, Su Xi absolutely has nothing to do with the demon race."
She knew her own disciple better than anyone.
He Wei looked at the agitated Lin Qing and made a gesture to calm the air with his hand, saying with a deep expression, "Whether it's true or false, we'll know if we search."
Upon hearing He Wei's words, others immediately echoed.
"Yes, this is not the demon realm. To increase their strength, the demon race must use Seal Demon Stones. As long as we find a Seal Demon Stone, it will prove that she is suspicious."
"No wonder so many people died at that time. Although her cultivation was not high, she could still survive."
"Her cultivation speed is so fast, there must be something strange about it. It's absolutely impossible for a normal person to cultivate so quickly."
...
One after another, they were immediately ready to convict Su Xi.
Su Xi did not feel angry at being framed, but instead became increasingly curious about He Wei's identity. Why was he worthy of so many people acting like his lackeys and speaking for him?
He Wei looked at the agitated crowd and hypocritically said again, "Mountain Master, since everyone is so worked up, can you let us search Su Xi's residence? It will also give everyone an explanation."
Mengxu Daochang looked at Lin Qing when he heard He Wei's words, his face showing difficulty.
He had already helped Lin Qing just now, and if he refused again, he would definitely incur He Wei's displeasure. If a conflict occurred, their previous efforts would be in vain.
The stability of the Five Great Immortal Mountains would ultimately be in vain.
Lin Qing understood Mengxu Daochang's dilemma and slowly nodded, saying, "Fine, I'll let you search. However, if you don't find any Seal Demon Stones, you must give my Penglai Mountain an explanation today."
"That's natural, Sect Leader Lin need not say more." He Wei smiled and waved to the people behind him to start the search.
Looking at He Wei, who was full of confidence, Su Xi immediately realized that the person behind the scenes who wanted to deal with her was He Wei.
Soon, she heard an exclamation from the search team, "Captain, we've discovered an abnormal situation. There's a strange rock here..."
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, He Wei glanced at Lin Qing and hurried inside.
Lin Qing, full of confusion, also followed inside.
No outsiders had ever entered her Penglai Mountain, so how could a clue be found?
As soon as he entered, he saw everyone gathered around a large Seal Demon Stone, and his expression changed.
Why was there a Seal Demon Stone in Penglai Mountain?
The Seal Demon Stone lying on the ground reflected a strange light, catching everyone's eyes, appearing quite seductive.
