There was silence that followed after Bi Qing said this before a laugh rang out.
This was the same laugh that had rang out before in response to the questions asked by Lei Feng. However, this time, this wasn’t a laugh that was making fun of Bi Qing.
Rather this was a laugh that found genuine amusement in what Bi Qing said.
Bi Qing didn’t take any offense in this and just waited for the voice of the talisman to finish laughing.
After laughing for a while, the voice of the talisman finally said, “I never thought that you would have a connection to the Love Sect as well.”
After the voice of the talisman said this, everyone couldn’t help looking at Bi Qing with a strange look.
They were waiting to see Bi Qing deny this, but it seemed like she wasn’t going to do that. The look on her face made it clear that she did indeed have some kind of connection to the Love Sect.
As they realized this, everyone couldn’t help feeling more and more depressed.
The ones that were guilty knew that their fates had been sealed as the only person that could have helped them turned out to be the enemy.
But the ones that weren’t guilty still held onto some kind of hope. They didn’t have a guilty conscience since they indeed weren’t connected to the Love Sect, but it was also very likely that neither Bi Qing or the voice of the talisman would let them go.
After all, they were all considered witnesses.
If they were left alive, there was the chance that they would expose them for killing these young masters, young missus, and their followers. Then there was no doubt that they would receive the wrath of the sects and powers behind them.
So if they were in the shoes of Bi Qing and the voice of the talisman, there was no way that they would leave them alive.
Their only hope was that they could convince Bi Qing to let them go by either promising not to say anything, or by falling under Bi Qing.
There were many that considered falling under Bi Qing the better option since they had seen her strength.
They knew that she wasn’t the real Bi Qing and the force behind her was something completely different. If they could fall under her, there was no chance that they would suffer.
So there were many that were watching for an opportunity.
After they finished laughing, the voice of the talisman said, “Of course there are others involved and at the same time, there are those here who have no idea what the Love Sect even is.”
As soon as her voice fell, Bi Qing’s eyes immediately swept over the group of people standing in front of her.
She had made sure to look at them as soon as the voice of the talisman finished speaking.
As she looked over them, there were a few things that made her eyes narrow.
But in the end, she didn’t do anything as she looked up at the sparrow spirit beast flying in the sky.
The voice of the talisman also didn’t say anything, as if they were waiting for Bi Qing’s response. However, after seeing the way that Bi Qing looked up at the sparrow spirit beast, the voice of the talisman finally spoke again.
“The Love Sect was besieged by a total of twenty two sects, some that had only sent a few experts to help and some that had committed a full force.”
The voice of the talisman clearly said this not just for Bi Qing, but also for the young master and young missus.
After she said this, they couldn’t help looking at each other with suspicious looks.
What she was doing was drawing lines between them so that she could divide them between those that knew what was happening and those that didn’t.
And based on the way that they all looked at each other, it was clearly working.
They finally realized that the Love Sect was a sect that was destroyed and there were people among them who were related to this. Whoever the voice of the talisman was, it was clear that they were related to the Love Sect in some way.
So now it was all about finding out who was related to the destruction of the Love Sect and offering them up.
After a long period of silence, the sparrow spirit beast suddenly flew down.
Everyone couldn’t help taking a step back when they saw this.
The sparrow spirit beast had been floating above them and that hadn’t changed…until now. That meant that the voice of the talisman was now planning on doing something.
They didn’t know what the voice of the talisman was planning, but they knew that it wouldn’t be good for them.
So many of them raised their guards and prepared for the worst.
The sparrow spirit beast flew down until it was within the reach of one of the young masters. But even then, the young master didn’t dare make a single move against this sparrow spirit beast.
He had seen the barrier blocking an attack that was equal to the Peak Qi Condensation Realm, so he knew that he wouldn’t be able to do anything to this sparrow spirit beast. But at the same time, he knew that the weakness of this barrier was that it was purely defense.
As long as he didn’t do a thing, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
So he just watched and waited for the voice of the talisman to do something.
The voice of the talisman was silent for a bit before finally saying, “The Domineering Blade Sect puts on a righteous appearance, but when it comes to their true face…They are absolute scum.”
The Domineering Blade Sect was the sect that this young master was from.
Hearing her insult his sect like this, he couldn’t help becoming agitated…but he held himself back. He knew that if he were to attack now, all he would be doing was hurting himself.
He had to keep calm and find a way out of this.
The voice of the talisman saw that he didn’t react and continued, “When the Love Sect was evacuating their children, the men of the Domineering Blade Sect captured them and used them to test their blades. These people who pretend to be righteous are actually inhuman scum.”
When Bi Qing heard this, she couldn’t help narrowing her eyes to look at this young master.
When the young master saw this, he couldn’t help being taken aback.
That was because he knew that what she had said was true…
He had seen the kids that were brought back by the elders who had gone to help with the siege of the Love Sect. They were still chained up in the basement of the Domineering Blade Sect and being used to test their blades.
They could have tested their blades on wooden dummies, but live dummies were the best…
That was a hidden secret of the Domineering Blood Sect that no one knew about for countless generations, so this young master couldn’t help being surprised that the voice of the talisman knew this.
Of course, he wouldn’t admit this even if he was beaten to death…
And he had no choice but to say something or else he would have to face Bi Qing by the looks of it.
So the young master said in a loud voice, “What slander! Everyone knows that the Domineering Blade Sect is a beacon of righteousness along with the Heavenly Thunder Sect! What kind of nonsense are you trying to slander us with!”
Lei Feng knitted his brows when he heard this Heavenly Thunder Sect being dragged along with the Domineering Blade Sect.
But he had to stand with everyone or else they would be picked off one by one.
In the end though, that wasn’t enough to convince Bi Qing.
She suddenly stopped leaning against that wall and stood up. Then she started moving towards this young master from the Domineering Blade Sect.
When the young master saw this, he couldn’t help taking a step back before saying in a fearful voice, “What, what are you doing? Miss Bi, you can’t fall for their lies!”𝒪𝓋𝒍xt.𝔠𝗈𝑚
But Bi Qing wasn’t moved at all by what this young master said.
That was because she had her own ways of telling if someone was lying and at this moment, she could tell that this young master was lying.
However, before she could reach the young master, the voice of the talisman said, “Miss Bi, there’s no need for you to personally raise your hand.”
Bi Qing narrowed her eyes to look at the sparrow spirit beast and after a moment of silence, she walked back to where she had been standing before and leaned against the wall again.
But her eyes were on the young master from the Domineering Blade Sect the entire time.
If eyes could kill, the young master would already be dead.
The young master knew that as well, but he couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief after Bi Qing stopped.
While he didn’t know why the voice of the talisman stopped Bi Qing, he knew that he had at least escaped an execution. While he didn’t know what the voice of the talisman would do next, at the very least, he might have a chance to escape.
But then, there were spirit beast roars that came from around them that sent chills down their spines.
