Soul Mourning Cliff is a forbidden area of the Yin Yang Sect, where divine beasts are kept. At the same time, this place is the most feared spot for the sect’s disciples.
Once someone in the sect commits a heinous crime, they are thrown into Soul Mourning Cliff to feed the divine beasts.
These divine beasts, after being trained, are exceptionally ferocious. When a criminal is thrown in, they do not swallow them whole at once. Instead, they chew slowly, starting from the criminal’s feet and eating all the way up to the head.
This process is very prolonged. Sometimes it takes days to finish, and the criminal has to endure extreme agony.
Granny Yin Hua said, “This person is guilty of grave crimes. He should experience the taste of being eaten by divine beasts. I will send him to Soul Mourning Cliff right now.”
With that, she picked up Dragon Bodhisattva.
Just at that moment, Dragon Bodhisattva woke from his coma. Seeing himself in an unfamiliar environment, he asked, “Where is this?”
“This is the headquarters of the Yin Yang Sect.” Granny Yin Hua said with a sinister laugh, “Boy, you are about to become food for the divine beasts.”
What!
Dragon Bodhisattva was first startled, then he loudly questioned, “Why do you want to kill me?”
“Just because your Holy Son could not beat me, so you want to help him save face, is that it?”
“You are shameless.”
Slap!
Granny Yin Hua slapped Dragon Bodhisattva across the face and said coldly, “You are at death’s door, yet you dare to make a racket here. Noisy!”
“I refuse to accept this!” Dragon Bodhisattva said, “The Yin Yang Sect, as a top sect in the Eastern Wastelands, wants to kill me just because its Holy Son is inferior in skill. Even if I die, I will not accept it.”
Granny Yin Hua said, “Whether you accept it or not does not matter. What matters is that you are about to die.”
Dragon Bodhisattva cursed loudly, “I thought your Yin Yang Sect was some righteous famous sect. Now it seems you are just a bunch of shameless bastards.”
“I tell you, even if I die, I will turn into a vengeful ghost and haunt you forever.”
“If I had known, I would not have held back. I should have directly killed off your eighteen Holy Sons.”
Slap!
Granny Yin Hua slapped him again and said, “Do you think we want to kill you to help the eighteenth Holy Son save face?”
Dragon Bodhisattva retorted, “Is it not?”
“It really is not.” Granny Yin Hua said, “You slaughtered several thousand soldiers in Mingyue City and also killed City Lord Jiang Feng and his son, committing a capital crime.”
“After killing Jiang Feng and the others, you even wrote a line in blood at the scene. What you did was undoubtedly declaring war on our Yin Yang Sect.”
“Tell me, should you die or not?”
Dragon Bodhisattva was stunned.
“Junior sister, no need to waste words with him. Throw him into Soul Mourning Cliff to feed the divine beasts.” The sixth elder said indifferently.
“Yes.” Granny Yin Hua responded and was about to leave the hall, dragging Dragon Bodhisattva with her.
“Wait a moment!”
Dragon Bodhisattva hurriedly said, “I do not know any Jiang Feng. Have you caught the wrong person?”
Granny Yin Hua sneered, “You are about to die, yet you still refuse to admit it?”
Dragon Bodhisattva said, “Not only did I not kill Jiang Feng, I have never even been to Mingyue City.”
Granny Yin Hua asked, “You are called Dragon Bodhisattva, right?”
Dragon Bodhisattva nodded, “That is correct. I am Dragon Bodhisattva.”
“Since you are Dragon Bodhisattva, I will not have caught the wrong person.” Granny Yin Hua said, “You killed people repeatedly in Mingyue City, and after the killings, you left a sentence at the scene: ‘The killer is Dragon Bodhisattva.’ Surely you have not forgotten that line?”
Dragon Bodhisattva was utterly confused.
Granny Yin Hua said coldly, “Since you have nothing to say, prepare to die…”
“It was not me!” Dragon Bodhisattva suddenly shouted, “I am Dragon Bodhisattva, that is true, but I really have not been to Mingyue City, nor killed Jiang Feng, nor slaughtered any soldiers.”
“Moreover, my cultivation is weak. How would I dare to challenge the Yin Yang Sect?”
“Even stepping back ten thousand steps, even if those things were really done by me, why would I leave my name? Would that not be asking for death?”
Granny Yin Hua laughed in extreme anger, “If it was not you who did it, then who do you think did it?”
“Although I do not know who the real culprit is, it is obvious that someone is framing me.” Dragon Bodhisattva said this with hatred, “No matter who is framing me, it is best they do not let me find out. Otherwise, I will not let them go.”
“Enough. At this point, there is no need for you to quibble.” Granny Yin Hua thought Dragon Bodhisattva was lying and wasted no more words. She dragged him, preparing to leave the hall.
“Hold on!” The sixth elder suddenly spoke, his gaze coldly fixed on Dragon Bodhisattva. He said, “This elder asks you, was the Mingyue City incident really not done by you?”
Dragon Bodhisattva said, “It was not me…”
“Do not rush to answer this elder’s question.” The sixth elder said, “This elder will investigate the Mingyue City matter thoroughly. I tell you, if the Mingyue City incident was done by you, it is best you admit it now. You can suffer less.”
“If you lie deliberately and this elder finds out, I will make you endure endless torment before dying.”
“Think it over before you answer.”
Dragon Bodhisattva did not even think and firmly denied, “I have never been to Mingyue City. Jiang Feng and those soldiers were not killed by me. Please investigate clearly, elder.”
The sixth elder raised his palm, and a vast power surged forth. Then he gently grasped from afar.
In the next second, Dragon Bodhisattva flew out from Granny Yin Hua’s hand and came before the sixth elder.
Dragon Bodhisattva was horrified inwardly. He thought, this old man’s cultivation is too terrifying!
“Pa!”
The sixth elder raised his palm and pressed it on Dragon Bodhisattva’s crown. He shouted lowly, “Soul Search!”
“Ah!” Dragon Bodhisattva only felt his head about to explode, the pain making him scream loudly, as if someone was stabbing his scalp repeatedly with sharp needles.
However, the sixth elder’s face remained cold and indifferent, ignoring Dragon Bodhisattva’s suffering.
Gradually, the sixth elder’s expression began to change.
After three minutes.
The sixth elder withdrew his hand. At once, Dragon Bodhisattva collapsed to the ground, his body soaked in sweat, his face pale from the pain.
“Senior brother, was it him?” Granny Yin Hua asked.
The sixth elder shook his head slightly and said, “I just used soul search and found that his memories have no record of going to Mingyue City. It seems he is not deceiving us. The one who killed Jiang Feng is probably not him.”
Granny Yin Hua was somewhat puzzled, “Strange. If it was not Dragon Bodhisattva who did it, then why would the real culprit frame him?”
The sixth elder said, “No matter who the real culprit is, I will drag them out.”
As his words fell.
The sixth elder took out a mirror and tossed it into the air. In an instant, the mirror enlarged to one square metre.
“Query Heaven Mirror!”
Granny Yin Hua recognised the mirror at once. It was a treasure bestowed upon the sixth elder by a Saintly powerhouse of the Yin Yang Sect. Once activated, this mirror could trace back through time and space.
“This elder wants to see just who dares to oppose our Yin Yang Sect.”
The sixth elder bit the tip of his tongue and spat a mouthful of essence blood onto the mirror’s surface. Then he infused it with true qi. In that instant, a city appeared in the mirror.
Above the city gates were engraved three large characters.
Mingyue City!
