Chu Mo nodded his head slightly and looked at Qin Shi, asking, "And the elixir?"

With a look of disgust, Qin Shi kicked the limp Zhao Cheng at his feet, "Where is the medicine?"

"It… it… it's here... it's here!" Zhao Cheng's body trembled, his eyes filled with endless fear. Shaking, he fished out an elixir from his bosom but accidentally dropped it on the ground with a clatter.

"Speak." Qin Shi kicked Zhao Cheng again, her voice cold as ice.

In that brief period, it was unclear what she had done, but Zhao Cheng seemed to be terrified of her to the extreme.

He curled up into a ball, shivering as he recounted the events.

On the side, Qingzhouzi, who was trampled under Chu Mo's feet, wailed hoarsely, "Slander... Slander!"

"Shut up!" Chu Mo stomped down hard, and a crisp sound of breaking bones followed. Qingzhouzi's hand was crushed underfoot.

This sight silenced all the onlookers from Lingdong Mountain.

At the same time, after hearing Zhao Cheng's account, all the elders and disciples of Lingdong Mountain exhibited expressions of shock and disbelief on their faces.

They could never have imagined that their leader would stoop to such inhuman deeds, even conspiring against his own disciple! Even among their own, they found Qingzhouzi's actions utterly shameless!

To plot against Chu Mo was one thing; that was no concern, and they might even take pleasure in seeing it succeed. But to scheme against his own disciple... and in such a manner, what did that mean?

Could it be that his disciple, akin to his own daughter in his eyes… was nothing but a tool to him?

Many people looked at Chu Mo again, and their gazes had changed.

They finally began to understand why this young man had been so stern and domineering since he set foot on Lingdong Mountain. It turned out he had known about the leader's conspiracy all along!

How he came to know wasn't important. What mattered was that their leader had committed this disgraceful act, and it had been exposed right there and then!

This was the most embarrassing part for everyone!

Especially since they had just been self-righteously pointing fingers at Chu Mo, righteous indignation boiling over. Now, the truth of the matter made them all feel a surge of suicidal impulse.

"What is this elixir used for?" Qin Shi asked coldly.

Tears and snot mixing, Zhao Cheng said, "It's… it's… it's an aphrodisiac! With a strong... hallucinogenic effect. Master said, if junior sister takes this elixir, she… she would obediently listen… and also, after taking this elixir, junior sister would become…"

"Enough!" Qin Shi cut Zhao Cheng off from continuing. Though she didn't have a deep friendship with Lu Tianyue, being a woman, she knew all too well how severe Lu Tianyue's hurt was at this moment. She didn't want Zhao Cheng's narration to wound her anew.

Chu Mo looked down at Qingzhouzi: "You played your hand well!"

Qingzhouzi struggled desperately but couldn't utter a word.

Chu Mo's gaze swept over the faces of the elders of Lingdong Mountain who all subconsciously lowered their heads.

It was truly too awkward... too embarrassing!

This type of incident, even if heard about on ordinary days, would provoke immense anger. Now that it had occurred right beside them, they were left with nothing but shame and disgrace.

Chu Mo turned his eyes toward the elixir on the ground, then kicked Qingzhouzi, "You go, eat that elixir."

"I won't eat it… I won't eat it ah I won't eat it… What are you all looking at? He's using threats… threatening Zhao Cheng to lie… Come on, kill him! Kill him for me!" Qingzhouzi, having briefly gained his freedom, roared madly.

Smack!

His face received another harsh slap!

When he clearly saw who had hit him, he was immediately stunned on the spot.

It was Lu Tianyue who had hit him!

At that moment, Lu Tianyue's face was filled with frost, and her eyes brimmed with a terrifying murderous intent.

"To have you as a master is a disgrace to me, Lu Tianyue!" Lu Tianyue gritted her teeth and squeezed these words out through clenched teeth. Then, looking up at Qingzhouzi, she said, "I once heard a rumor that Zhao Cheng is your illegitimate son. I will kill him!"

As Lu Tianyue spoke, she walked directly toward Zhao Cheng, who was curled up on the ground.

A shocking scene unfolded when Qingzhouzi suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Tianyue, "Tianyue... I was wrong... I... I deserve to die... You can't kill Zhao Cheng, you can't kill him, he is your senior brother!"

"I don't have such a senior brother," Lu Tianyue said, walking towards Zhao Cheng without turning her head.

Qingzhouzi frantically picked up an elixir from the ground: "Young Master Chu... Master Chu, ancestor Chu... I'll eat it, I'll eat it... Isn't that enough? Please spare my son... spare my son!"

Qingzhouzi swallowed the elixir, and in an instant, a flush spread across his face, and he began to uncontrollably scratch his clothes as if he had lost control.

A robe of extreme value was torn to shreds in the blink of an eye as his eyes turned blood red, darting among a few women while he sobbed loudly with the last of his reason: "Spare my son... spare my son! I'm not a human... I'm a beast, I... I used this elixir years ago to rape my father's concubine... and she gave birth to him, my only child..."

The effect of the elixir was extremely strong, and the little sanity Qingzhouzi had left was almost gone, causing him to start babbling nonsensically. But the words he uttered made everyone from Lingdong Mountain present feel utterly disgraced.

Especially Zhao Cheng, curled up and trembling, turned completely ashen when he heard Qingzhouzi's words.

He finally understood why the sect leader had treated him so well. After seeing the sect leader kneel to plead for him just now, Zhao Cheng had been deeply moved; but after hearing what followed... Zhao Cheng just wanted to die!

He looked at Lu Tianyue, who was walking towards him, and revealed a tragic smile: "Junior Sister... just kill me! I've lived enough!"

"Don't... you are my son... don't die, you are my only one..." Qingzhouzi heard this and immediately roared in madness. He then forcefully suppressed the urge to rush at the women present and desperately slapped his own body, trying to force out the effect of the elixir.

He had impulsively swallowed the elixir, which he had used to harm many people before, believing his cultivation could restrain it. Only now did he realize... he could not restrain it at all!

At this moment, Qingzhouzi seemed to somewhat understand how terrible those women he had manipulated with this elixir must have felt.

Lu Tianyue coldly watched Zhao Cheng, who wore a longing-for-death expression, her eyes filled with killing intent.

Zhao Cheng, however, appeared resigned, not even glancing at Qingzhouzi, and muttered, "With such a background, I'd rather be dead than alive!"

Lu Tianyue hesitated a bit. Although she hated Zhao Cheng terribly, after all, he was her senior brother and had loved her for many years. If she had killed him right away, it would have been over, but she had calmed down by now. Asking her to kill now seemed somewhat impossible for her.

At that moment, a look of smugness flashed through Zhao Cheng's eyes.

I understand you too well, junior sister. I knew you couldn't do it!

Just then, Lu Tianqi suddenly burst forth. His hand moved, and his sword fell. A chilly light suddenly flashed.
