Chapter 115

"Murdering fellow disciples??" Nangong Yan clutched her face, shaking her head as her senses, nearly rattled out of her by the slap, finally returned to order. She snapped, "Qin Xueyan, I was executing a villain from the Demon Sect! How is that murdering a fellow disciple? Even if you are the Eldest Senior Sister, you cannot simply slander someone out of thin air!" The other Qingtang Sword Sect disciples, having finally recovered from their shock, also felt that Qin Xueyan’s accusation was going too far. A disciple from Qingyang Peak, who stood on the same side as Nangong Yan, said in a low voice, "Eldest Senior Sister, you have misunderstood. Senior Sister Nangong was merely interrogating this young demon thief; she hasn't done anything to this junior sister." He was referring to Ling'er, who was being held down by several others. Everyone else had also assumed that when Qin Xueyan spoke of "murdering a fellow disciple," she meant that Nangong Yan was mistreating Ling'er.
