JSCMU-Chapter 95: Becoming More and More Insane

Yue Lin was at a loss on how to judge the situation. Hearing Ye Danxia speak, it was as if he’d grabbed a life-saving straw. He immediately questioned, “Yun Jin, what do you say to this matter? Gu Jinghong is already dangerous, if you used him to act recklessly, the sect rules certainly wouldn’t spare you.”

“Sect rules?” Yun Jin actually laughed. “Ye Danxia’s actions are backed by conclusive evidence, yet Hall Master dares not mention the sect rules. But when it’s me, you’re suddenly invoking them left and right? These sect rules must be a joke.”

Yue Lin was a bit irritated: “Regardless, both matters must be clearly explained.”

Yun Jin raised an eyebrow: “What’s there to explain? Aren’t those five senior brothers here? Let them come out and confront me face to face.”

Yue Lin quickly whispered a few things to the disciples beside him.

Soon, the Discipline Hall disciples brought forward the five disciples.

The five disciples were groaning inwardly.

Among them, some were disciples under the sect master, and some came from other peaks, but in terms of stance, they were clearly leaning toward the sect master’s side. Otherwise, Ruan Jun wouldn’t have chosen them in the first place.

But the problem was.

Yun Jin was the type to take revenge for even the smallest slight. They didn’t dare offend her!

“Come on, tell us. What did Gu Jinghong ask you to do at that time?” Yun Jin asked.

Gu Jinghong raised his eyes and cast a cold glance at the five of them.

The five of them instinctively shuddered.

One of them cautiously said, “He… he only had us practice sword techniques a hundred times.”

“He didn’t do anything else?” Ye Danxia couldn’t help but ask. “Like causing you bodily harm or something?”

That question was heavily suggestive.

The five disciples were hesitating when they saw Yun Jin toying with a memory stone in her hand.

The five of them were instantly alarmed.

Could it be that there was a memory stone at the time?

They didn’t want to be looped on playback!

They could only answer honestly, “No, he just urged us to practice swordsmanship.”

“That might just be a diversion. His true purpose must’ve been to get revenge on you! Otherwise, do you really think he was there just to watch sword practice?” Ye Danxia said, unable to restrain herself.

“Since when did supervising sword practice become revenge?” Yun Jin raised an eyebrow. “I simply thought the sword techniques of these senior brothers were quite interesting and wanted to watch them a few more times, so I asked Gu Jinghong to record it and bring it back to me. What’s the issue?”

Gu Jinghong glanced at Yun Jin. She neither asked him to record it nor watched it.

But he quickly lowered his head and said nothing.

“You… you’re forcing him! And also, who has that kind of fetish? If you like sword techniques so much, why not practice them yourself? Haven’t you already memorized theirs?” Ye Danxia said through gritted teeth.

She didn’t know what her final ending would be.

But no matter what, she wanted to drag Yun Jin down with her!

“Oh,” Yun Jin replied casually, “You have no sword talent, so how would you understand the training methods of a sword genius like me? Can’t I get stronger just by watching? Also, I got along really well with these five senior brothers. Last time, I even accepted gifts from them, so I just wanted to help them improve.”

The five of them: “…”

What gifts!

That was compensation you forcibly demanded, okay?!

Still, they nodded rapidly, hoping this segment involving them would pass quickly.

“After careful observation, I noticed areas where each of you could improve. I’ve written it all down. Go take a look yourselves.” Yun Jin casually tossed five jade slips out.

The five of them caught them in confusion.

They instinctively glanced at the contents of the jade slips, and a glimmer of joy appeared in their eyes.

Inside… there really were pointers, and all targeted their swordsmanship weaknesses. If they follow them, it’s possible for them to improve a lot!

“You haven’t finished today’s one hundred rounds yet, right? Once this matter is over, I’ll have Gu Jinghong come find you again. Still one hundred rounds, understood?” Yun Jin said blandly.

“Yes!” The five of them responded enthusiastically.

Right after they did, something felt off. They nervously glanced up toward the high platform.

Zhao Wuji sat there, expression unreadable, betraying neither joy nor anger.

The disciples couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

But… they couldn’t blame them! Gu Jinghong forced them, they couldn’t refuse, right?

“Hall Master Yue, any other questions?” Yun Jin looked toward Yue Lin.

Yue Lin was still reluctant, but he could only wave his hand and let them step down.

“Then the spirit field! What about the matter of the spirit field? Did you not instruct Gu Jinghong to steal rare spiritual herbs? It’s just that he couldn’t find a chance with others around!” Ye Danxia asked through gritted teeth.

Yun Jin sneered and immediately said, “Hall Master Yue, did you hear that? In front of so many people, she slanders me again! You must uphold justice. Gu Jinghong is still a disciple under the sect master, when did going for a stroll in the spirit field become the same as being a thief?”

Gu Jinghong put on a wronged expression at just the right moment, “I didn’t touch a single spiritual herb. Junior Sister Ye accuses me of theft, does she have any evidence?”

Yue Lin: “…”

Just a moment ago, Ye Danxia kept demanding evidence from others, and now it was Gu Jinghong demanding evidence from her.

“What’s there to see in a spirit field?” Ye Danxia was nearly hysterical. “You dare say you didn’t instruct him? You dare say you had no ulterior motives?”

Yun Jin looked down at Ye Danxia from above and smiled radiantly: “Gu Jinghong going to the spirit field was indeed under my instruction, and I did indeed have an ulterior motive.”

A flash of joy passed through Ye Danxia’s eyes. She shouted, “Everyone heard that! She admitted it! She admitted it herself!”

Yun Jin calmly said, “I had Gu Jinghong go to the spirit field to learn about planting techniques.”

Gu Jinghong: “???”

Wasn’t it to chat with the spirit plants?

But.

Whatever the master says is right.

Gu Jinghong nodded in agreement: “That was indeed my master’s instruction.”

“What do you want to learn planting techniques for?” Yue Lin pressed. “You’re a sword cultivator, this should be useless to you!”

Yun Jin immediately looked wronged: “Prejudice! Hall Master Yue, that’s prejudice! Just because I’m a sword cultivator, I can’t have a heart that loves spiritual plants? Can’t I have the desire to learn planting techniques?”

Yue Lin: “…”

Yun Jin continued to mutter: “Everyone knows that our Heavenly Sword Peak doesn’t have a single botanist. A whole field of spiritual land is lying barren. I didn’t want to waste such good land, so I wanted to learn a bit of planting. What’s the issue?”

Thinking about the current situation of Heavenly Sword Peak, many people showed knowing expressions.

The spirit field at Heavenly Sword Peak was indeed lying barren. What a shame, but there was nothing they could do.

First, Heavenly Sword Peak indeed had no people. Second, all the botanists were monopolized under the sect master. If other peaks wanted to develop their own spirit fields, they had to rely on Zhao Wuji to send help. In return, most of the harvested spirit herbs had to be handed over to Zhao Wuji.

Given the relationship between Heavenly Sword Peak and the Sect Master’s faction, it would be strange if the Sect Master was willing to send people.

Yun Jin probably had no other choice, which is why she considered secretly learning.

Yue Lin also felt a bit helpless. In that case, it would be impossible to convict Yun Jin of any crime, because she really hadn’t done anything.

Yue Lin opened his mouth, just about to speak.

When Yun Jin suddenly spoke again, “Since everyone is gathered here today, I’d like to make an official report! I want to report Sect Master Zhao Wuji! I accuse him of monopolizing botany techniques, and profiting massively because of it! The wealth of the entire sect is concentrated in the hands of one person. I want to ask everyone. This Tianxing Sect, does it belong to everyone, or only to him?”

As Yun Jin’s words fell, the entire place fell into a terrifying silence.

Everyone looked at Yun Jin with shock and fear.

This Yun Jin…

She is getting more and more insane!
