Chapter 292 Puppetry
As soon as these words came out, the group of disciples suddenly quieted down and turned to look at the person who spoke.
I saw a young woman dressed in the uniform of a Lei Xiao Sect disciple standing not far away. She had a firm look on her face and an unquestionable light in her eyes.
When Yu Lingxi heard these words, a warm feeling surged in her heart. She looked at the woman with gratitude. Although she didn't know her, her appearance undoubtedly gave Yu Lingxi a little comfort.
Chen Yan and Pei Ling also breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that although rumors were difficult to control, at least there were still people who were sensible and knew right from wrong.
The three of them smiled at each other and continued on their journey to Lei Xiao Sect.
This time, they have more determination and expectation in their hearts, believing that the truth will eventually come to light.
Chen Yan and Pei Ling felt mixed emotions as they listened to the rebuttal from the Lei Xiao Sect disciple.
They looked at Yu Lingxi and saw that although her expression was calm, the sadness in her eyes was hard to conceal.
The two of them couldn't help but feel worried, but they didn't know how to comfort her.
"If Lei Tingyi and Yu Lingxi are really in love with each other, then the appearance of Ling Jiuan is indeed confusing."
Chen Yan said in a low voice, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Pei Ling also nodded and sighed.
"Yes, emotional matters are complicated to begin with, and with these external factors, it's even more unpredictable. I really don't know how things will develop between the three of them."
The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.
They know that no matter what the outcome, someone will get hurt.
As friends, they can only support them silently and cannot make decisions for them.
"Forget it, let's get to Lei Xiao Sect first."
Chen Yan suggested.
"When the time comes, everything will be clear."
Pei Ling nodded, and the three of them set off on their journey again.
However, their hearts were filled with anxiety and anticipation, not knowing what truth the upcoming trip to the Lei Xiao Sect would reveal.
Yu Lingxi noticed the complicated expressions of Chen Yan and Pei Ling, but a sense of pride inexplicably welled up in his heart.
She curled her lips calmly, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes. She had already seen through all the troubles and was confident.
"Don't worry, we can never force relationships."
Yu Lingxi spoke in a nonchalant manner, with a barely perceptible sadness in his tone.
"No matter what the result is, I will accept it calmly. After all, true happiness needs to be fought for and protected by oneself."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan and Pei Ling looked at Yu Lingxi in surprise.
They didn't expect that at this critical moment, Yu Lingxi could be so calm and open-minded.
The two smiled at each other, and the worries in their hearts seemed to be alleviated a little.
"Miss Yu, it's great that you think this way."
Chen Yan said with emotion.
"We believe that no matter what the outcome, you will find your own happiness."
Pei Ling also nodded.
"Yes, Miss Yu, we will always support your happiness."
After the three people left, the originally bustling streets suddenly became silent.
The disciples wearing Lei Xiao Sect's clothes suddenly had empty eyes and their bodies stiffened the moment Yu Lingxi and the other two turned around, as if they were controlled by invisible strings and instantly turned into soulless puppets.
It turned out that all this was a drama carefully planned by Yu Lingxi.
She used her wisdom and means to create this rumor in order to test the reactions of Chen Yan and Pei Ling. At the same time, she was also silently weighing the relationship between Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan.
When the time comes, these two idiots will naturally help her.
Yu Lingxi looked at the disciples who had turned into puppets, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.
She knew that this scene was cruel but necessary.
Only in this way can she understand the truth of the matter more clearly and move towards her future more firmly.
However, she did not realize that this drama not only affected Chen Yan and Pei Ling, but also invisibly stirred up the situation within the Lei Xiao Sect.
Her momentary decision also determined her life.
As she continued on her journey to Lei Xiao Sect with Chen Yan and Pei Ling with mixed feelings, a bigger storm was quietly brewing within Lei Xiao Sect.
And all of this will erupt completely the moment they arrive at Lei Xiao Sect.
Yu Lingxi, Lei Tingyi, Ling Jiuan, and everyone in the Lei Xiao Sect will be caught in this storm and unable to escape.
Inside the Lei Xiao Sect, Sect Master Lei sat at the desk in his study, tightly holding a piece of intelligence he had just obtained from a spy.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep worry and confusion.
"Puppetry? When did the Yu family start using this evil magic?"
Sect Leader Lei muttered to himself, his voice filled with shock and anger.
He was well aware of the evil and cruelty of puppetry, a technique that could control people's minds and turn them into soulless puppets, completely at the mercy of the caster.
He found it hard to accept that the Yu family, one of the noble families on good terms with the Lei Xiao Sect, would actually use such evil magic.
Sect Master Lei pondered for a moment and decided to immediately summon the sect’s top leaders to discuss the matter.
He must find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible and come up with countermeasures to deal with the possible crisis.
Soon, the top leaders of Lei Xiao Sect gathered in the study. They looked at the information in Sect Master Lei's hand and solemn expressions appeared on their faces.
"Master, is this information credible?"
An elder was the first to ask.
Sect Master Lei nodded and said in a deep voice.
"The source of the information is reliable. We must take this matter seriously. If the Yu family really used puppetry, it would pose a great threat to the entire cultivation world."
Upon hearing this, all the elders nodded in agreement.
They knew that puppetry was evil and dangerous, and if it got out of control, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Then what should we do?"
Another elder asked.
Sect Master Lei pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.
"First, we need to confirm the authenticity of the intelligence. Second, if the Yu family did use puppetry, we must negotiate with them and ask them to immediately stop this evil behavior. Finally, if the negotiations are fruitless, we will have to take strong measures to protect the peace and stability of the cultivation world."
After hearing this, all the elders expressed their agreement with Sect Master Lei’s decision.
They knew that this was a severe test, but they also believed that under the leadership of Sect Master Lei, the Lei Xiao Sect would be able to overcome this crisis.
However, they did not realize that the crisis was far more complicated and dangerous than they had imagined.
What Yu Lingxi did has quietly changed the direction of the entire situation.
Lei Tingyi, Ling Jiuan and everyone in the Lei Xiao Sect are chess pieces in the entire chess game.
