Chapter 1177: Chapter 612: Extremely Important Figure (2)

The Second Elder’s face was full of anger, a terrifying aura of murder bursting from within him.

"What did you say? Qingcheng... she’s dead?"

Murong Qingcheng was his most beloved granddaughter, with outstanding talent in cultivation throughout the Sacred Land, always the pride of the Second Elder, the treasure he cherished most in his heart.

Upon hearing that his granddaughter died tragically on the mysterious and unfathomable Holy Road, the Second Elder felt his world collapse.

"That’s right, Murong Qingcheng is dead." Tianlan Holy Master nodded slightly, his face carrying a look of deep sorrow.

"Who was it? Who exactly did this vile deed?"

The Second Elder’s body trembled slightly from anger.

"I suspect it was Qinghe Holy Land’s Kunpeng Taoist." The Second Elder said word by word through gritted teeth.

To have the capability to strike against Murong Qingcheng on the Holy Road, Kunpeng Taoist was the most likely candidate.

The open and hidden struggles between the Sacred Lands have never ceased, and Kunpeng Taoist has always been a tricky character.

However, Tianlan Holy Master shook his head, "Kunpeng Taoist is also dead. According to the information we received, Murong Qingcheng... committed suicide."

"Suicide? That’s impossible!"

The Second Elder shouted at the Tianlan Holy Master, "Qingcheng is naturally optimistic, with high cultivating talent and a bright future ahead. How could she possibly commit suicide? Someone must have forced her, absolutely someone must!"

In the Second Elder’s heart, his granddaughter’s image was always strong and full of vitality; he could not accept the suicide claim in any way.

Gongsun Yue stepped out from the crowd, slightly bowing to greet the Second Elder before speaking: "Second Elder, please hear me out.

Murong Qingcheng conspired with disciples from Qinghe Holy Land and Refining Dragon Holy Land while on the Holy Road, committing an act of betrayal against our Tianlan Sacred Land.

Later, she was defeated by Gu Sheng, and Kunpeng Taoist was also killed by Gu Sheng. Feeling the weight of her sins, she chose suicide."

"You’re lying!"

The Second Elder pointed his cane at Gongsun Yue, shouting loudly, "Why are you slandering Qingcheng in this way? How could she betray the Sacred Land?"

Gongsun Yue did not fear the Second Elder’s anger and looked him straight in the eye, stating: "Second Elder, every word I say is true. Murong Qingcheng’s actions were witnessed by many on the Holy Road. Her betrayal of the Sacred Land is beyond pardon."

"Enough, Gongsun Yue."

Tianlan Holy Mother spoke to stop Gongsun Yue. She walked to the Second Elder and said helplessly: "Second Elder, Murong Qingcheng indeed betrayed our Tianlan Sacred Land on the Holy Road, we have verified this extensively.

As for her cause of death, it is said she committed suicide, but if you wish to investigate further, we will not prevent you."

The Second Elder was unwilling to believe, trembling with rage, striking the ground forcefully with his cane, shouting, "This is impossible, there must be a hidden truth here. You’re all deceiving me, someone must have harmed Qingcheng!"

Then he turned to Gu Sheng, pointing his cane at him, demanding: "Speak, what really happened? Did you do something to Qingcheng?"

Gu Sheng replied calmly, "Second Elder, anyone returning from the Holy Road can confirm Murong Qingcheng’s actions. She conspired with outsiders and betrayed the Sacred Land, it is an undeniable fact."

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder felt a fury surge within him. "Gu Sheng! Even if Qingcheng did make a mistake, it is not up to you to deal with her."

Saying this, the Second Elder suddenly released a powerful pressure, sweeping towards Gu Sheng, attempting to force him to reveal the truth he sought.

Just as that pressure was about to touch Gu Sheng, Tianlan Holy Mother also emitted a strong aura. This aura, like a fierce wind, dispersed the Second Elder’s pressure.

Tianlan Holy Mother firmly stated: "Second Elder, Murong Qingcheng’s betrayal of the Sacred Land is unforgivable. Considering your years of dedication to the Sacred Land, we did not investigate further. Do not press your advantage further.
