Chapter 258: The Truth Revealed and the Sect Reorganized
Yun Yao escorted Liu Yan'er and her accomplices with the irrefutable evidence with a determined look, and slowly walked into the sect's law enforcement hall. The law enforcement hall was solemn and dignified at this time, and the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed to suffocate people. The elders of the sect had already gathered here, their expressions were serious and cold, and their eyes revealed their pain and anger at the occurrence of such a bad incident in the sect.
The law enforcement elder sat in the center of the hall, his majestic gaze sweeping over everyone like a physical object. Yun Yao stepped forward and reported every detail of the evil deeds of Liu Yan'er and others. Her voice was crisp and firm, echoing in the hall, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart hard. She presented the evidence she had collected in a clear and orderly manner, including letters filled with conspiracy between Liu Yan'er and the evil cultivators, notes recording their secret plans to frame Yun Yao, and witnesses and evidence that could prove that they spread rumors and deceived people in the sect, one by one, presented to everyone.
The face of the law enforcement elder became increasingly gloomy. He glared at Liu Yan'er and the others and scolded them, "You unworthy disciples, as disciples of the sect, should have followed the sect rules, practiced diligently, and contributed to the glory and development of the sect. But out of jealousy and selfishness, you colluded with the evil cultivators, attempted to murder your fellow disciples, and destroyed the peace and stability of the sect. What you did is simply outrageous. It is a betrayal of the sect and a blasphemy against the way of cultivation!"
Liu Yan'er's face was as pale as paper at this time, but she still tried to argue: "Elder, this is all a misunderstanding. Yun Yao deliberately framed me. She was jealous of my status and reputation in the sect and wanted to drive me out, so she forged these evidences." However, her voice was trembling and her eyes were evasive, without any of her former arrogance.
Yun Yao sneered and said, "Liu Yan'er, you are still trying to quibble at this point. I, Yun Yao, act in an upright manner and disdain to use such despicable means. You thought you did it perfectly, but you didn't expect that I could find evidence of you framing me, and you didn't expect that I could find clues of your collusion with the evil cultivators. When you placed the evil talisman sachet at the head of my bed, did you ever think that this day would come?"
The law enforcement elder snorted coldly, interrupting Liu Yan'er's sophistry: "Shut up! Do you think we will easily believe your lies? The evidence provided by Yun Yao is solid, and the witness testimonies also corroborate each other. You can't deny it at all."
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Liu Yan'er's accomplices knelt down and begged for mercy. One of the disciples cried and said, "Elder, we know we were wrong. We were bewitched by Liu Yan'er and participated in these evil deeds in a moment of confusion. We are willing to accept the punishment of the sect, and only ask the elder to be lenient."
The law enforcement elder looked at these disciples who were kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. Although he felt sorry for them, he could not violate the rules of the sect. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Although you were bewitched by Liu Yan'er, you also have your own judgment and choice. Your mistakes are unforgivable, but considering that you can admit your mistakes in time, the sect will give you a chance to reform. You will be expelled from the sect, some of your cultivation will be abolished, and you will face the wall on the cliff in the back mountain of the sect for ten years. If you can sincerely repent after ten years, we will consider whether to accept you again."
When the disciples heard the verdict, although they were unwilling, they knew that this was the best outcome, and they kowtowed to express their gratitude.
Then, the law enforcement elder cast a stern look at Liu Yan'er: "Liu Yan'er, as the mastermind, you are guilty of a heinous crime. Not only did you frame your fellow disciples, you also colluded with evil practitioners and attempted to harm the sect. The sect will never tolerate your existence, and you deserve to be killed for your crimes. But considering that you have made some contributions to the sect, the sect will give you a chance to end your life on your own. Do you plead guilty?"
When Liu Yan'er heard the verdict, she collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning. She knew she had completely failed, and her eyes were filled with despair and regret. But she still said unwillingly: "Elder, I don't accept it. I just want to stand out in the sect, and I don't want to be suppressed by Yun Yao. I have never thought of really harming the sect. All this is done out of helplessness."
Yun Yao looked at Liu Yan'er without any sympathy in her heart: "Liu Yan'er, you deserve this. Your jealousy and ambition have led you to this path of no return. You have never thought about improving your strength through your own efforts, but have tried to achieve your goals through conspiracy and trickery. Not only did you hurt me, you almost destroyed the entire sect. You don't deserve to be forgiven at all."
The law enforcement elder no longer paid attention to Liu Yan'er's defense and said, "Liu Yan'er, if you are dissatisfied, you can appeal to the sect leader. But before you appeal, you must first accept the sect's supervision. Come, take Liu Yan'er away and keep her under strict supervision."
Then, the law enforcement elder stood up and said loudly to all the disciples present: "This incident has sounded the alarm for our sect. Our sect has always regarded itself as a righteous sect and has focused on the moral cultivation and practice of disciples. But I didn't expect such scum to appear. This shows that there are still loopholes in our sect management and disciple education. From today on, the sect will launch a comprehensive investigation and rectification."
"First, we need to strengthen the ideological education of the disciples. The elders of each peak should regularly organize the disciples to study the history, purpose and rules of the sect, so that the disciples can deeply understand the connotation of the way of cultivation and establish correct values and outlook on life. It is strictly forbidden for the disciples to be jealous of each other or fight with each other. If there is any violation, they will be severely punished."
"Secondly, strengthen the sect's security precautions. Set up more powerful prohibitions and formations at each entrance and important area of the sect to prevent evil cultivators from sneaking in. Increase the number and frequency of disciples patrolling the sect to ensure the sect's safety. At the same time, conduct a spiritual power check on all disciples in the sect to prevent any disciples from being secretly controlled or bewitched by evil cultivators."
"Furthermore, we need to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with other sects. Although our sect has a certain status in the cultivation world, we cannot remain isolated. We need to establish closer ties with other righteous sects and jointly resist the invasion of evil cultivators. We should regularly organize exchange activities between sects to share cultivation experience and intelligence information and jointly enhance the strength of the righteous sect."
"Finally, the sect will set up a reward system for reporting. Disciples are encouraged to supervise each other. If any disciple is found to have violated the sect's rules or colluded with evil practitioners, they should report it to the sect in a timely manner. Once verified, the reporter will receive a generous reward, and the person reported will be severely punished."
Yun Yao listened to the speech of the law enforcement elder and nodded secretly in her heart. She knew that after this incident, the sect would become more united and powerful. And she herself would continue to grow in the process and face more challenges.
Yun Yao actively participated in the process of the sect's investigation and rectification. She assisted the elders of each peak in educating the disciples, shared her own experience in cultivation and understanding of the way of cultivation, and used her own personal experience to tell the disciples that only by practicing hard and adhering to the right path can one achieve true success in the world of cultivation. She also participated in the arrangement of the sect's security precautions. With her research on runes and formations, she put forward many valuable suggestions, making the sect's defense more stringent.
In the exchange activities with other sects, Yun Yao also showed extraordinary wisdom and charm. She communicated with the disciples of other sects in a friendly manner and learned from each other. Not only did she win reputation for her own sect, but she also made many like-minded friends. These friends gave her a lot of help in her future practice and adventure.
As time went by, the sect's inspection and rectification work achieved remarkable results. The disciples in the sect became more united, and the cultivation atmosphere became more intense. The sect's strength was further improved, and its position in the cultivation world became more stable.
Yun Yao, after the baptism of this incident, her state of mind has become more mature. She has steadily advanced from the initial stage of the foundation building realm to the middle stage of the foundation building realm, and her cultivation has achieved remarkable results. Her name has spread in the sect and has become a role model for many disciples to learn from. The relationship between her and Chu Mochen has also become deeper in the ups and downs they have experienced together. They practiced together, discussed the development of the sect and the future of the cultivation world, accompanied each other, supported each other, and became an enviable couple in the sect.
