Chapter 571: Chapter 562: Cleaning House

"You!"

Shortly after, the Heavenly Pillar Sage withdrew his hand.

He looked at Yang Zhiyuan, his face immediately turning extremely grim.

"You wretched beast, you truly dared to leak the Sect Dao Skill!"

After a stern shout, an overwhelming Immortal Might burst uncontrollably from the Heavenly Pillar Sage.

Like a towering mountain, it covered the entire field, causing everyone’s faces to instantly turn pale.

"What?!"

"He really leaked the Sect Dao Skill?!"

Everyone’s faces were filled with astonishment. Clearly, the Heavenly Pillar Sage had forcibly soul-searched Yang Zhiyuan just now.

"How hateful, being a Senior Disciple of our line, and yet you committed such a treacherous act against the sect!"

"I used to hold him in high regard and saw him as a role model, but I never thought he’d turn out to be such a treacherous scoundrel!"

For a time, everyone was furious, whether they were disciples of Heavenly Pillar Peak or those from other peaks and lines, now they all utterly despised Yang Zhiyuan.

"Sage, I..."

Yang Zhiyuan looked extremely distressed, his body trembling, his heart consumed by fear.

"Beast, not only did you leak the Sect Dao Skill, but you even dared to attempt murder to silence others. I was truly blind back then to have made you Heavenly Pillar Peak’s Senior Disciple. Today, I shall personally clean house!"

The Heavenly Pillar Sage was furiously enraged, almost wishing to strike Yang Zhiyuan dead on the spot. As he spoke, a terrifying energy gathered in his palm, causing even the Heavenly Vault to change color. It was conceivable what would happen if this palm strike landed on Yang Zhiyuan.

It would undoubtedly obliterate him on the spot!

"Junior Brother, please hold your hand!"

At this moment, from the distant horizon, several Divine Rainbows flew over, unmistakably the other main line Sages.

"This person leaked the Sect Dao Skill, and it may not be appropriate to kill him immediately. We need to clarify into whose hands those Dao Skills have fallen," Holy Yang Sage stepped out, just as he said. Even if Yang Zhiyuan died a thousand times, it would still be hard to atone for his sins. However, the leak of the sect’s Dao Skills must be investigated, and they must find out into whose hands they have leaked.

The Immortal Sect of Inquiry would not let go of those people easily!

"Senior Brothers, do not stop me. I have already forcibly soul-searched him and have a basic understanding of where the Dao Skills went. This person is deeply sinful, and only his death can bring solace!"

The Heavenly Pillar Sage’s voice was cold, and he intended to take action immediately to deal with Yang Zhiyuan.

"After eliminating him, none of those involved will escape. As the Heavenly Pillar Peak Master, I also bear some responsibility and will go to the Saint Master to plead guilty."

"Sage, please hold your hand!"

However, at this moment, Mo Wangchen stepped forward, "Killing him like this would be too easy. I heard that within the sect, there is the Yin Yang Creation Cave, which contains extreme temperatures of cold and heat, and even Emperor Realm Great Powers find it torturous. Why not..."

"You!"

Hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, Yang Zhiyuan almost spat out a mouthful of blood from anger.

The Yin Yang Creation Cave was, of course, not unfamiliar to him. It was a place the sect used for punishing guilty disciples.

However, this cave had not been opened for hundreds of years and was rarely used unless the crime was grave enough to warrant a thousand deaths.

He remembered that thousands of years ago, the Immortal Sect of Inquiry had a remarkable disciple whose cultivation reached the Half-Step Immortal Realm, but he was discovered secretly colluding with others and slain several elders.

This crime equaled patricide!

Subsequently, that disciple was sent to the Yin Yang Creation Cave, his cultivation sealed, unable to end his suffering, and after enduring hundreds of years, he finally perished there.

If even a Half-Step Immortal Realm Great Power ended like this, Yang Zhiyuan could well imagine his fate wouldn’t be any better.

"Nephew Mo speaks very true, killing him would be too merciful!"

The Heavenly Pillar Sage looked at Mo Wangchen and then nodded, "Let him enter the Yin Yang Creation Cave, endure a few hundred years of torment, and then death will be fitting!"

"No!"

Yang Zhiyuan exclaimed, his expression ashen.

Bang!

But at that moment, the Heavenly Pillar Sage struck him in the chest, sending Yang Zhiyuan flying heavily, collapsing onto the ground while coughing up blood.

"My cultivation..."

He struggled to stand up, eyes blank. His cultivation had been abolished.

"Great Elder, take him to the Yin Yang Creation Cave!"

"Yes, Sage!" The Heavenly Pillar Peak Great Elder stepped forward, expressionless and coldly gazing at Yang Zhiyuan, showing no sign of sympathy.

Afterward, he waved his wide sleeve, creating a gust of strong wind that carried Yang Zhiyuan away from this place.

"You, you, and you..."

Until the Great Elder’s figure also disappeared, the Heavenly Pillar Sage turned his gaze again, coldly sweeping over the several disciples below.

He had forcibly soul-searched Yang Zhiyuan and knew these people were all involved in the Dao Skill leak.

Under the stern gaze of the Heavenly Pillar Sage, they trembled with fear, knowing escape was impossible. Some gave up resisting, while two others turned to flee as streaks of light.

However, they were intercepted by the Heavenly Pillar Sage, forcibly soul-searched, and then killed with a mere lift of his hand.

"Nephew Mo, today we are much indebted to you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known there were traitors in our Heavenly Pillar Peak."

All those connected to the Dao Skill leak were extinguished by the Heavenly Pillar Sage, none left unpunished.

"Protecting the sect’s interests is my duty," Mo Wangchen smiled faintly as he spoke.

"My senior brothers, please see to wrapping up here. I will head to the Saint Master to confess my responsibility."

The Heavenly Pillar Sage turned and left these words to the other Sages before transforming into a streak of light and heading toward Lingtian Peak.

...

When Mo Wangchen returned to Lingdong Peak, it was already noon.

At this moment, Fu Jingyan and Luo Qingcheng stood not far from the courtyard gate.

As Mo Wangchen approached, Fu Jingyan bowed deeply to him, "Thank you, Senior Brother Mo, for seeking justice for me."

Mo Wangchen glanced at him, then looked towards Fu Jingyan’s arm, "You’ve taken the pill already. How do you feel?"

"The wound itches a bit, but it no longer hurts."

"That’s a good sign. Your severed limb is regenerating. It should fully recover in about half a month."

Mo Wangchen smiled again and advised Fu Jingyan to rest well, then turned to walk into the courtyard.

As he reached the gate, he suddenly recalled something and turned back.

"This pill is called the Proving Emperor Pill, and it can boost your chances of reaching the Emperor Realm by thirty percent. You are already at the ninth level of the Saint Venerable Realm, so it should be right for you. I’ll give you one."

Saying that, Mo Wangchen handed a pill to Fu Jingyan and then turned to the envious Qin Hao.

"Among the four senior brothers of Lingdong Peak, you’re the only one who hasn’t reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm, so I’ll give you one too."
