Chapter 118 Rong Xin said that Lin Xuxi was responsible for Master Rong's death
"Isn't Rong Xin in the middle stage of Nascent Soul? How could he be injured by a weapon in the Foundation Establishment stage?" Shouzheng called him by his name. He didn't like Rong Xin and Zhou Jingyue in the first place.
It should be said that everyone in Jianshan dislikes them. If it weren't for these two people, why would the master have been in seclusion for all these years and not come out?
"Yeah, that's why I find it strange." Wei Yujun couldn't understand. He didn't believe Yan Yao's story at first, and even after seeing the body, he was still puzzled.
"What's so strange about that? Those who do too much evil will eventually destroy themselves." Shouzheng waved his sleeves and flew away on his sword.
Wei Yuyun was a little surprised and said to An Tao, "Shouzheng never acts like this. Although he has a straightforward temper, he rarely shows his displeasure to us."
"You don't know?" This question made An Tao a little surprised.
Wei Yuyun nodded and said, "I know, but it has nothing to do with us. It was Lin Xuxi herself who disturbed Master Rong. It's normal for Shouzheng to dislike Lin Xuxi, but why is he implicating us? Besides, hasn't Lin Xuxi been making amends all these years? Isn't that enough?"
He flicked his sleeves and prepared to leave.
"Who told you?"
Hearing this, An Tao was surprised. He grabbed Wei Yuyun, who was about to leave, and asked, "Who told you that it was Master Lin who disturbed Master Rong and caused him to retreat for many years?"
"Isn't it Lin Xuxi?" Wei Yujun saw An Tao's look of surprise and a bit of amusement, and asked, "Why are you so surprised?"
An Tao: "Who told you that!" He was rarely so serious.
"Aunt Xin." This incident happened a long time ago, perhaps four or five years ago. When he returned, he heard that Lin Xuxi had been punished by being thrown into the Qiushui Abyss because she had deliberately disturbed Master Rong.
He didn't believe it at first, but when he heard Aunt Xin say that Lin Xuxi had been punished and thrown into Qiushuiyuan, he figured that since she was the one being punished, she must have done it.
Because of this, Wei Yuyun completely loathed Lin Xuxi and had no good feelings towards her at all. Disturbing someone else's quiet cultivation was such a sin.
"Ridiculous, ridiculous!" An Tao shouted in a deep voice, "Nonsense! It was clearly Zhou Jingyue who disturbed Master Rong, and it was he who was to be thrown into the Qiushui Abyss. It was Master Lin who couldn't bear it and took the punishment for him. How can you say it's Master Lin's fault? Go ask Zhou Jingyue what's going on!"
"You Fushan are really ridiculous. You actually put the blame on Master Lin. No wonder Master Lin has a bad reputation outside. I think you are wronging him." After saying that, An Tao left angrily.
Only Wei Yuyun was left with a bewildered look on his face, giving him a bad look on the left and a cold look on the right. Thinking of An Tao's words, he wanted to go back and ask Zhou Jingyue what was going on.
He certainly wouldn't remember it wrongly. It was Lin Xuxi who disturbed Master Rong, so how come other people said it was Zhou Jingyue's fault?
Zhou Jingyue was helping Senior Brother Yan arrange for the outer courtyard disciples to clean up their respective courtyards. At the same time, he was carefully checking for any missed demon cultivators and had to deal with them carefully.
"Little junior brother."
Zhou Jingyue turned around and saw his senior brother approaching from afar. He greeted Senior Brother Yan first, then stepped forward to greet him, bowing and saying, "Senior Brother, is there anything else I've missed?"
"No, I have something to ask you." Wei Yuyun looked up at Yan Chuhua not far away, but did not greet him.
The two of them haven't talked to each other in the past few days. Maybe they are too busy or because of the previous quarrel, they just don't communicate.
"You come with me."
Zhou Jingyue turned around to look at Senior Brother Yan, nodded and said hello to him, then turned around and followed Senior Brother out to talk in the Spirit Talisman Hall.
"Big Brother, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Jingyue walked up to the big brother and asked curiously, "Why do you look so pale? Did something happen to Master's Wife?"
Thinking of this possibility, his heart instantly rose.
"Master, are you okay?"
"Let me ask you, was it you who disturbed Master Rong or Lin Xuxi a few years ago?" Wei Yuyun asked with a cold face.
He is most similar to Jiang Sihan, and now his face is colder and more majestic.
When Zhou Jingyue heard this and looked at his eldest brother's expression, he thought he was going to settle the score. He knelt down and nodded, "Yes, I did it."
"Is it really you?" Wei Yuyun remained calm. He just couldn't understand why Aunt Xin said it was Lin Xuxi when it was Zhou Jingyue.
Who is lying?
"Big Brother, if you want to scold, beat or abuse me, I will take it all." Zhou Jingyue lowered his head, wishing he could bury his head in the ground.
He had no face to face his senior brother, nor did he have the face to face his master's wife.
"What happened?" Wei Yuyun, who had calmed down, wanted to hear whose fault it was and who had deceived him.
"I had just broken through the Golden Core Stage that day, and Aunt Xin said she was going to take me somewhere to celebrate. At first, she didn't tell me where it was and told me to close my eyes. I only found out when we got to Jianshan. I didn't understand at first why we were going to Jianshan for no reason, but Aunt Xin said she was going to pick wild vegetables to make something for me, so I didn't think much of it. Later, I don't know why I was possessed by a ghost, and I don't remember much about what happened. Anyway, by the time I found out that Master Rong was in trouble, it was too late."
Zhou Jingyue lowered his head and spoke softly.
"So, it was you and Rong Xin who caused the incident, why is Lin Xuxi the one being punished?" Wei Yuyun asked.
"Yes, it was because Master's Wife was afraid that I would go crazy after entering Qiushuiyuan, so she went in my place, claiming that raising a child without educating him was the worst." Zhou Jingyue knelt on the ground, choking with sobs, "Big Brother, I didn't mean to do that. It's just that I didn't know what was going on at the time. I really didn't know."
"Actually, I mentioned this to Senior Brother Yan later, and he did say a few times that he was clearly with Rong Xin, but in the end, he was the only one punished. We, too, don't know."
After Zhou Jingyue finished explaining, he looked at his senior brother. Seeing his senior brother's serious expression, he thought he had said something wrong and explained, "I was wrong, but, but I shouldn't be the only one wrong!"
"Aunt Xin is dead now, and there is no evidence." Wei Yuyun wanted to ask but couldn't.
But he did remember that it was Aunt Xin who said that Lin Xuxi was the cause of the trouble, and that was definitely true. He didn't doubt that Zhou Jingyue was lying, he just felt puzzled.
"Senior Brother, don't you find it strange?" Zhou Jingyue asked.
Wei Yuyun asked back: "What's so strange?"
"I don't know when it started, but our attitude towards Master's Wife seems to have gotten worse and worse. We can't even remember what we used to do with her. If we try hard enough, we can still recall it, but it's just not as warm as before. I initially thought it was my fault, but then Senior Brother Yan told me the same thing. Do you, when you think back on the past, also feel a sense of strangeness?"
Zhou Jingyue said hoarsely, "Big Brother, do you still remember what happened in the past?"
This question shocked Wei Yuyun. After a moment of confusion, he asked, "What do you mean?"
"We've forgotten what happened with Master's Wife. All we remember is Rong Xin. But what good things did Rong Xin do to us?" Zhou Jingyue muttered to himself, "How could we forget?"
Wei Yuyun also felt a pain in his forehead and didn't know what to say for a moment.
