Chapter 1427: Chapter 860: Roll Down, Lingchi_2
What shocked them even more was recognizing that the newcomer was indeed the ever-elusive Master of the Holy Alliance, Luo Yuantian!
Luo Yuantian, upon his arrival, began to assess the surrounding situation.
Observing Xiang Yuntian and the others’ expressions, as well as the circumstances around him,
With his own understanding of some Calculation Skills, within a few breaths, he had already grasped most of the situation, feeling a silent bitterness in his heart.
He realized that he was likely being dragged into a disaster again.
He knew that being awakened by Lu Qing was never good news.
"It’s nothing too serious. I just need you, as the Master of the Holy Alliance, to witness some matters. You don’t have to speak, just watch from the side."
Lu Qing glanced at Luo Yuantian, who was bowing and standing respectfully without the slightest hint of negligence, and spoke casually.
He then turned his head to look at the Five Treasure Taoist beside him.
"Daoist, take out that Peach Wood Sword Talisman your junior sister gave you back then."
The Five Treasure Taoist’s body trembled. He reached out his trembling hand to take out a faded, worn-edged Peach Wood Sword Talisman from his chest.
The sword talisman was roughly made, simply carved from ordinary peach wood without the slightest spiritual energy fluctuation, appearing utterly ordinary.
Yet, it was the most precious treasure in his heart, the only memory Yun Shu left him.
Over the years, he carried it day and night, his fingers having smoothed out the talisman’s carvings after countless caresses.
Every time he awoke from dreams at midnight, holding this talisman, he remembered Yun Shu’s flower-like smile, their youthful promises, and the soul-crushing betrayal and death.
"Fellow Daoist..." The Five Treasure Taoist’s voice choked, holding the Peach Wood Sword Talisman with both hands, he reverently presented it before Lu Qing.
Lu Qing reached out to take the Peach Wood Sword Talisman, his fingertips gently touching the rough textures, and a barely perceptible thread of Divine Soul Power seeped into it.
Although the talisman lacked Spiritual Power, it carried a trace of Yun Shu’s aura during her life and imprinted the causal trajectory of the incident back then.
To others, this was just an ordinary relic, but to someone skilled in supreme Inference Skill, it was the key to unveiling the truth.
"Watch carefully; this is the evidence you all want."
As Lu Qing finished speaking, he raised his right hand into the air, and in the palm of his hand, countless stars suddenly blossomed, the galaxy reversed, chaos opened, and an illusory space instantly coalesced, suspended in the air, covering the entire Myriad Phenomena Dao Sect square.
Everyone’s eyes were drawn to this Illusionary Technique Space, where galaxies flowed and time reversed.
Scenes vividly unfolded within as if occurring right before them.
Within the images, a youthful Five Treasure Taoist walked alongside Yun Shu, the two gathering herbs between mountains, chatting and laughing by the stream.
Yun Shu’s demeanor was gentle, as she tied the personally carved Peach Wood Sword Talisman to the Five Treasure Taoist’s waist, softly speaking of their vow to stay together for a lifetime.
The pure and beautiful images moved many to tears, and the Five Treasure Taoist wept uncontrollably.
Then abruptly, the scene shifted.
Shao Sida, dressed in splendid garments, lurked behind a thicket, watching the two converse happily, his eyes filled with jealousy and malice.
He had pursued Yun Shu for years, yet Yun Shu only had eyes for the Five Treasure Taoist, never once sparing him a glance.
Long-held obsession and jealousy had twisted his mind, breeding sinister thoughts.
The subsequent images made the audience gasp in disbelief.
On a moonless, windy night, while Yun Shu was out on a sect mission, Shao Sida, accompanied by a few trusted guards, captured and abducted her to a hidden cave.
Within that cave, Shao Sida tortured Yun Shu unimaginably, and ultimately used an Evil Technique to absorb her Daoist Body Origin and Cultivation into himself.
Afterwards, Shao Sida incinerated her body into ashes, scattering them to the winds.
He then silenced all the guards involved in the matter, erasing any trace of what happened.
Then, turning the situation around, he framed the murder of Yun Shu on a Demon Cultivator.
One event after another, every piece of intrigue and conspiracy.
All were vividly portrayed in the Illusionary Technique Space, without a trace of concealment, bared for all to see.
A deathly silence enveloped the square.
Everyone stared in shock and anger, looking at Shao Sida as if witnessing an unforgivable monster, filled with disdain and loathing.
Seeing Yun Shu being brutally murdered, the Five Treasure Taoist let out a heart-wrenching scream, spitting a mouthful of blood, nearly passing out.
The years of Heart Demon, grievances, and pain erupted at this moment, his eyes bloodshot, intent on killing rampantly, eager to tear Shao Sida apart.
Master Qingxuan, face ashen, clenched his fists tightly, looking at Shao Sida with a gaze filled with murderous intent.
His own disciple, drained of her essence, tortured to death, and the true culprit still roamed free—a lifetime’s disgrace!
Meanwhile, at the moment the images appeared, Shao Sida’s face turned ashen, collapsing to the ground, his eyes empty, looking as if his very soul had been extracted.
He thought he had done everything flawlessly, erased all traces completely, confident no one would reopen the old case after so many years.
Yet he never anticipated that Lu Qing had such heavens-reaching means, able to reverse time and present the truth of that year in full!
All disguises, all complacency, shredded to pieces at that moment, exposed under the broad daylight.
