Chapter 90
In the end, this disciple died in front of Shen Yuexi.

"Why is this happening...who is it?"

Shen Yuexi watched her fellow disciples die, feeling the sadness of being falsely accused in her heart.

"Blame it on me, I came a step too late. If I could have arrived earlier, if I could have been stronger, maybe I wouldn't have..."

Shen Yuexi lowered her head in self-reproach.

Seeing Shen Yuexi's guilt, Nan Wuya's expression on the side was complicated.

In fact, this matter had nothing to do with Shen Yuexi. Even if she failed to arrive in time, she could not be blamed at all.

However, Nan Wuya did not stay here any longer. He looked in the direction where the masked man disappeared and hurriedly chased after him.

Shen Yuexi missed the best opportunity to catch the murderer.

She stayed where she was, checking on each disciple.

Without exception, these disciples were all breathless and seemed to have suffered great pain before their death.

Soon, the sect elders who received the early warning rushed to the management office with their disciples.

At a glance, they saw Shen Yuexi and the dead disciples around her.

"Shen Yuexi, you killed them!?"

The leader of the elders didn't even think about it. He strode forward angrily, grabbed Shen Yuexi and asked him fiercely.

Shen Yuexi shook her head bitterly, "Elder, do you think I have the ability to kill so many people? When I arrived, they were already..."

The elder's expression changed when he heard this. It was true that Shen Yuexi was a loser known to everyone in the sect.

However... I heard that Shen Yuexi was imprisoned in a forbidden area because she practiced some forbidden arts and was related to the demons.

Nothing happened for more than half a year, but as soon as Shen Yuexi came out, such a big thing happened to the sect. It was really suspicious.

The elder shouted angrily: "How come you, an outer disciple, are here at this time?"

Just at this time, a disciple investigated the surrounding situation and came to report to the elder, "Elder, all the disciples responsible for guarding are dead, and a lot of things in the warehouse have been lost."

The elder's sharp eyes glanced at Shen Yuexi and asked: "I'm afraid you were the one who brutally killed your fellow disciples in order to steal the treasures in the warehouse!"

"Elder, this matter has nothing to do with me. When I heard the noise and came here, the real murderer had already escaped. She must have stolen the things in the warehouse."

The elder was still doubtful about Shen Yuexi's words.

On the other side, Nan Wuya finally chased all the way from the mountain road to the outside, and finally saw the masked man stopping at the sect.

The masked man looked around, and after confirming that he saw no pursuers, he seemed to let out a sigh of relief.

"Huh, I didn't expect those guards to be a bunch of trash. Even I can't beat them."

When Nan Wuya heard the masked man's voice, he felt it was very familiar.

This voice clearly belonged to Shen Yuerong.

Nan Wuya was filled with horror at this moment, and for a moment he felt that he was hearing hallucinations, so he mistook the masked man's voice for Shen Yuerong.

Soon, the masked man took off his veil, revealing a face belonging to Shen Yuexi underneath.

Seeing this, Nan Wuya became more and more shocked and at the same time extremely confused.He clearly saw Shen Yuexi going to the top of the mountain to practice with his own eyes, and he followed Shen Yuexi to the scene when the incident happened.

But why do two Shen Yuexi suddenly appear now?
Just when a vague guess emerged in Nan Wuya's mind, "Shen Yuexi" tore off her face again, peeling off a layer of human skin mask, revealing her true face.

"Rong'er...how could it be that it's really you..."

The complexity in Nan Wuya's heart is naturally difficult to describe.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Yuerong took out the treasures she had stolen, including the high-level spiritual core that had not yet been reported.

"I didn't expect Shen Yuexi to be so lucky. She is really stupid. As long as she doesn't turn it in, no one will know that she has obtained a high-level spiritual core. But it's good that she is so stupid, otherwise it wouldn't be cheaper. I."

Shen Yuerong put the crystal spiritual core into the palm of her hand and smiled proudly.

After seeing Shen Yuerong reveal his true face with his own eyes, and recalling the disciples who died in the management office, Nan Wuya could not connect the evildoer with the little disciple he had always loved.

Where did the problem come from?
For the first time, Nan Wuya realized that there were puzzles in this world that troubled him so much.

Shen Yuerong did not absorb the power of the spiritual core immediately. She carefully put away the stolen treasures and then secretly returned to the sect.

Nan Wuya did not go back with him immediately. He still couldn't accept this fact.

He calmed down for a long time, and finally forced himself to digest that Shen Yuerong was the real culprit who killed his fellow disciples.

After returning, Nan Wuya heard the disciples passing by discussing a certain topic.

"Shen Yuexi just hurt junior sister Yue Rong who delivered medicine to her in the forbidden area. After coming out, she still didn't repent. She even blatantly stole into the sect's warehouse. I heard that the disciples who were responsible for guarding were all dead and could not be saved. !”

"I've heard about it too. According to me, she should have been dealt with directly before she was placed in solitary confinement, so that our fellow disciples wouldn't have died tragically."

"One of the senior brothers who was guarding once taught me, but it's a pity that I haven't thanked him properly, and now we are separated by heaven and earth..."

Similar discussions reached Nan Wuya's ears. He was full of doubts at first, but he quickly connected it with what happened in his memory and understood the current situation.

At that time, everyone believed that the real culprit in the murder and treasure grabbing incident was Shen Yuexi, and the elders sent by the sect to investigate also said that the evidence was complete at this time.

Therefore, Nan Wuya didn't think about it carefully and directly punished Shen Yuexi.

But now Nan Wuya knows the whole story, and seeing Shen Yuerong disguised as Shen Yuexi, he can easily guess that this incident is actually a deliberate frame-up.

The so-called evidence...

Nan Wuya suddenly recalled that time, when the last disciple who fell tried his best to pull off the veil from Shen Yuerong's face. It was at that time that he saw the face of "Shen Yuexi".

This disciple must have left clues at the scene before he died, pointing to Chen Yuexi.

In this way, everything makes sense.

Just as Nan Wuya had guessed, when he rushed back, the elder responsible for the investigation found residual traces on the side of the dead disciple, which was Shen Yuexi's name, and then confirmed that the real murderer this time was Shen Yuexi.

Nan Wuya finally understood the purpose of Shen Yuerong's double insurance. She was probably planning to pin the charge on Shen Yuexi.

At that time, she could have killed the disciple with one blow, but she deliberately spared him a breath in order to let him take off the veil and see the face of "Chen Yuexi".

Only in this way can the crime be proven logically.

Realizing this, Nan Wuya was filled with emotions. The Shen Yuerong he had seen was actually just a veil. How well did he know the true face beneath the veil?
