Chapter 1222: Chapter 1126: The Reason (Part 2)

Lin Xi nodded, there was nothing to hide about this.

Moreover, he had already told Princess Consort Le before.

She just didn’t believe it.

Otherwise, today’s breakthrough wouldn’t have been so dangerous.

After all, when she was breaking through, if she had called him and given some advice and resources, there would have been no chance of failure.

It’s also fortunate that today is Monday.

But it’s likely Princess Consort Le forgot she needed to teach Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu today.

Seeing Lin Xi admit it, Princess Consort Le took a deep breath.

She had no choice but to believe it now.

She never imagined such a young Innate would appear.

This was completely unbelievable to her.

Even in the sect, or in historical records, no one had ever reached Innate under thirty years old.

Don’t be fooled by her youthful appearance now.

In fact, she was skilled in maintaining her looks.

Her true age had long surpassed forty.

Even so, she was considered a top cultivation talent in the sect.

"Thank you!" At this moment, she bowed deeply to Lin Xi.

If it weren’t for him, her outcome today would have been predictable.

Lin Xi didn’t mind and replied, "Just a small effort!"

"Don’t dwell on it."

But seeing Princess Consort Le, she was bound to dwell on it.

He didn’t say much about this.

Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu were a bit worried about Princess Consort Le’s condition.

"Princess Consort Le, why don’t you rest for a while?" Xiaoxian broke the polite atmosphere.

Princess Consort Le shook her head, "It’s not necessary now."

"Besides, I have more important things to do."

After saying this, she showed a hint of confusion, squatting beside Le Tian and asked, "I remember, the sect doesn’t leave the Secret Realm easily!"

"Moreover, I had long left the sect; what do you mean by wanting to kill me?"

This was a question that arose in her mind after encountering Le Tian’s assassination a few days ago.

Le Tian had no expression apart from pain.

He didn’t address Princess Consort Le’s words.

He seemed to act as if he hadn’t heard.

Seeing him like this, Princess Consort Le didn’t get discouraged. Instead, she calmly said again, "You know when I was in the sect, I was in charge of punishment!"

"There are seventy-two kinds of sect punishments, each one makes life worse than death."

"Fortunately, in recent years since I left, I haven’t had to use them."

"I wonder if I’ve gotten rusty."

"Looks like today, I might have to use them."

She paused after speaking and then continued, "Hmm, wait for me a moment."

"I’m going to find some tools."

As soon as she said this, she stood up.

As soon as she stood, she noticed Le Tian, who had been unable to move on the ground, began to tremble all over.

And on his face, there was a great terror instead of the previous expressionless state.

"I’ll talk!" he shouted immediately, "You devil!"

Because he knew once punishment was used, he absolutely couldn’t endure it.

After all, though Princess Consort Le seemed like this, a devil resided within her.

Otherwise, the sect’s punishment wouldn’t have been under her control.

And in the years she was in control, almost all sect disciples and peers avoided her.

It’s simply because the punishments she invented were too terrifying.

Instead of getting angry at his shout, Princess Consort Le smiled, "Only when I mention it do you get honest."

"However, you really can’t compare to some of the sect disciples!"

"At least, they tried one or two before speaking."

"As for you, you admitted defeat before it even started. Shame on you as a Guardian!"

Le Tian, "...."

He didn’t argue back; he felt it entirely unnecessary.

Because in the past, someone did argue, and in the end, was compelled to try one of the punishments, fainting from the pain.

Since then, almost anyone entering the Punishment Hall, when Princess Consort Le is present, does not need punishment.

They naturally confess honestly.

"Alright, it’s time to talk!" Princess Consort Le said.

Le Tian paused for about five or six seconds before continuing, "I came to kill you because the Sect Leader is no longer."

"No longer?" Princess Consort Le’s face changed drastically, "How is this possible?"

"The Sect Leader had Innate Power and was in his sixties this year."

"How could he be gone?"

"You’re lying to me?"

The next moment, a powerful killing intent emanated from Princess Consort Le.

Le Tian, lying on the ground, couldn’t open his mouth fully due to the oppressive killing intent.

And his injuries were significantly worsening, seeming if the killing intent lingered, he would be doomed.

Lin Xi immediately stepped up and said, "Princess Consort Le, calm down."

"Otherwise, you won’t get any information."

Hearing him say this, Princess Consort Le tried her best to calm down.

Evidently, she also noticed Le Tian’s condition.

"Go on!" she coldly said to Le Tian.

Le Tian, after about five or six seconds, continued, "The new Sect Leader took over and sent me to eliminate you!"

"Yes, you know the new Sect Leader, the second disciple of the old Sect Leader, Yue Ying!"

"So you should understand it’s not me targeting you, but I’m forced."

"Otherwise, the Sect Leader would eliminate me."

Princess Consort Le didn’t utter a word, seemingly deep in Le Tian’s words.

Seeing her like this, Le Tian seized the chance to say, "You already possess a strength no less than mine, even stronger."

"I came to kill you, also out of compulsion."

"Now that you’ve broken through, I pose no threat to you, spare my life!"

"I swear, from this day, I will never go against you!"

Princess Consort Le still remained silent, but Lin Xi, standing nearby, sensed the killing intent from her rising again.

As for Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu, standing beside Lin Xi, they listened somewhat baffled.

To them, killing was completely unimaginable.

Besides, even if this Yue Ying took the Sect Leader’s seat, why would she want to kill?

"Spare you?" After a while, Princess Consort Le suddenly asked.

Le Tian nodded with difficulty, "I pose no threat to you, plus, my attempt to kill you was under duress."

"So, for the past’s sake, spare me this once!"

"I swear, I’ll give you unimaginable compensation!"

However, at this moment, Princess Consort Le looked at Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, what do you think?"

Lin Xi chuckled, "It’s up to you!"

Princess Consort Le nodded, then looked at Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu, "You two, go to the room and wait for me. I’ll come over later to teach today’s lesson."

Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu exchanged a glance, not quite understanding why Princess Consort Le was sending them to wait in the room at this moment.

Could there be something coming up that they shouldn’t see?

Suddenly, a shiver ran through them, realizing, perhaps, killing?
