"What on earth is going on? This is the first time this has happened in a hundred years. What did you do in the secret realm?"
Elder Du looked at everyone in confusion.
"Elder! We had occupied the stone monument before, and it was Duan Lei! He was the one who ordered the people to blow up the stone monument!"
"That's right! The elders want to make the decision for us. Duan Lei starts to unite a group of people and seize all the stone tablets. We can only fight together."
"But when someone was able to restrain him, he felt that there was no hope of entering the inner gate, so he ordered people to blow up all the stone tablets. He also said that he could not enter the inner gate, and no one could enter the Yuxu Sect."
"Yes, it's the stone monument that Duan Lei ordered to blow up..."
One person spoke, and the crowd suddenly became furious, with most people accusing Duan Lei of his "crimes."
This time it was Duan Lei's turn to be confused, but with the young master's character, he immediately turned into anger and drew his sword and pointed it at everyone;
"Don't stop spewing blood! It's obvious that I have been targeted by you all the time in the secret realm, and even in the last moments I have been chased..."
The word "kill" in pursuit was not uttered. Duan Lei probably felt that it was shameful to say so, so he changed the subject;
"I have been entangled all the time and have no time to seize the stone monument. It is better for you to discuss it in advance and bite me first!"
Being pointed at Duan Lei's sword, the crowd became even more indignant;
"You're still pretending! The person you ordered is using a talisman with the attribute of thunder. If it's not related to you, who else can it be related to?!"
"That's right! That person must be your little brother, a bastard. He might be hiding among us now. Do you dare to come forward?"
"Yes! Stand up! Stand up! Stand up..."
“Shut up—!!!”
Elder Ye gave a sharp shout, and the whole place suddenly fell silent.
"What you said, someone blew up all the stone monuments, is that true?" Elder Ye asked with dignity.
Except for Duan Lei, everyone nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Ninety-nine stone monuments were blown up? Not a single one was left?"
Another piece of chicken pecking at the rice.
Elder Ye frowned and looked at Elder Du; "I still can't believe it. The stone tablets in the secret realm are so strong that they must be at least at the level of pill formation to be destroyed."
Elder Du pondered for a moment and then said: "Indeed, all ninety-nine stone monuments were blown up. This is the first time in a hundred years... Besides, no one would blow up stone monuments in the past. How violent a temper is this?"
"How about... go in and take a look?"
"Okay, let's go in and have a look..."
With that said, the two elders personally passed through a space door and entered the secret realm to check the situation.
When the two elders came out, their faces became even more ugly.
Elder Du; "...Old Ye, why are we so unlucky? A situation that has never happened in a century happened to us."
Elder Ye; "...It's useless to say this now. Let's think about how to find the person who blew up the stone monument, and then think about how to judge whether the assessment has been passed or not."
Elder Du's forehead was full of questions: "Do we need to look for it again? Didn't so many people say that it was Duan Lei who ordered people to do it?"
Elder Ye shook his head with a stern expression, "I feel like something is fishy, so I'd better ask more questions."
The two elders returned to the crowd, and Elder Du said: "You said it was Duan Lei who ordered someone to blow up the stone tablet. Who can describe what that person looks like?"
You can hear the drop of a needle, but no one speaks.
Elder Du frowned and pointed to the person in front of him, "You were the first one to speak up just now, so please speak up."
The man was stunned for a moment and said nervously: "Well, that man was too fast at the time...I, I didn't see clearly..."
Elder Du looked unhappy and pointed to another person: "Tell me, you just said Huan, didn't you see clearly?"
The man hurriedly said: "Back to the elder, I saw it clearly, but... the man wore a strange hood on his head, which seemed to be made of wood, and he also wore a big cloak, so..."
Hearing this answer, Elder Du understood that he had asked Lonely, and looked at Elder Ye helplessly.
Elder Ye didn't say anything, but his face became darker, and he was obviously in a bad mood.
At this time, someone else stood up and said;
"Among us, the one with the biggest background is Duan Lei. Who else but him can have such a powerful magic weapon that can blow up all the stone monuments!"
As soon as these words came out, all the spearheads were pointed at Duan Lei again;
"That's right, the Duan family has a great cause. It's not surprising that Mr. Duan has one or two high-level magic weapons."
"Furthermore, the Duan family has always bullied others and acted arrogantly in Chaohe City. Duan Lei was the first to bear the brunt. It's not the first time that he will mess up and smash things if he doesn't get what he wants."
"That's right, the small shops in Chaohe City used to be harmed by him, and my family was in ruins because of it. I dare not speak out when I'm angry."
"This time he kicked a rock. He actually brought the young master's temper to the Yuxu Sect, and he didn't dare to admit it. He is really a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong!"
…
"Shut up! If you dare to say one more word, your tongues will be cut off!" Duan Lei couldn't hold back his temper anymore.
"You see, he is so angry that he has done something wrong. It's him!"
"That's right! It can only be him. No one else but him can come up with such a powerful magic weapon to explode the stone monument!"
What people say is scary, but it's not true. If you say it too often, it seems to be true.
"I'll kill you..."
When Duan Lei had been wronged like this, he would rush towards the crowd with his sword in hand.
Boom!
But before he could break into the crowd, Elder Ye appeared in front of him out of thin air and knocked him to the ground with one finger.
Duan Lei, who was lying on the ground covering his head and unable to get up for a long time, roared in grief and anger;
"These idiots! I'm going to kill them, kill them—!"
Elder Ye's expression was solemn; "With such a violent temper, no matter how high your qualifications are, let's end this matter."
"Anyone who can survive until the end can become the outer disciples of our Yuxu Sect. As for the candidates for the inner disciples... it will be decided based on your performance after you enter the sect."
After saying that, Elder Ye walked away, and before leaving, he gave Duan Lei a meaningful look.
That look in his eyes clearly showed some doubts about Duan Lei.
There is no way, judging from the current situation, the biggest suspect can only be Duan Lei.
Although Duan Lei is irritable, arrogant, and a playboy, he is not a fool. He can see that the elder has doubts about him.
If he doesn't do something at this time, he really won't be able to become an inner disciple... He can't do it now, and it will be embarrassing in the future.
"Elder, elder... I was wronged, I was wronged..."
The number one genius in Chaohe City, the eldest son of the Duan family, who had the most superior spiritual root among all, finally lowered his noble head, crawled on the ground and kept crying out for injustice.
But doing so had little effect. Elder Ye only gave him one sentence;
“You can stay if you want to, and you can leave if you want to!”
Duan Lei was dumbfounded and opened his mouth wide, but could no longer speak.
I originally thought that with my qualifications, I could easily become an inner disciple of Yuxu Sect, but now I can only become an outer disciple and have to be ostracized by everyone. The elders are suspicious.
If it were in the past, Duan Lei would definitely have thrown away his sleeves and left.
Your Yuxu Sect doesn't want me, but I'm not willing to go!
But today is different from the past. Due to the current situation of the Duan family, Duan Lei must join the Yuxu Sect this time.
Gritting his teeth, he had no choice but to stand up and accept the reality.
At the same time, Wang Liang in the crowd looked at the line of words that appeared in front of him and showed a pure and honest smile.
