Chapter 1890: Interrogating Ling Muyan
Ling Zhiyu had been waiting at the entrance of the Immortal Medical Alliance for a while, and upon seeing Gu Zhiqi, she immediately came forward, "Master Gu, you’ve arrived?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded towards her.
Ling Zhiyu promptly said to Gu Zhiqi, "Ling Muyan just returned to the master’s sect shortly ago and has now been called to the law enforcement hall for questioning. I don’t know when she’ll be out."
Ling Zhiyu could go into the law enforcement hall herself, being the Fragrance Sect’s leader.
However, Gu Zhiqi wasn’t a member of the Immortal Medical Alliance and couldn’t enter.
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi said with indifference, "Then find somewhere to wait."
Upon hearing this, Ling Zhiyu led Gu Zhiqi to her courtyard and sent someone to watch the law enforcement hall, instructing them to notify her as soon as Ling Muyan came out.

Immortal Medical Alliance, Law Enforcement Hall.
Ling Muyan was led into the interrogation room, where quite a few people were already present.
Hall Master Tang, the Great Elder, Ling Yilin, the Third Elder, Yang Li — these five were seated, and their expressions didn’t look too good, especially the Third Elder’s.
Besides the five, the interrogation room had eight or nine people standing, including Yang Siran and seven or eight others, along with Xiao Yixue, who was tied up.
Upon seeing Yang Siran and Xiao Yixue, Ling Muyan paused slightly, already guessing what was happening.
Such fools... always getting into trouble.
She internally cursed Xiao Yixue, but her expression barely changed.
Her gaze lingered briefly on Xiao Yixue, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes, before respectfully greeting the seated elders.
Seeing Ling Muyan’s calm demeanor, the elders each harbored their suspicions.
"Do you know why you were summoned to the law enforcement hall today?" The first to speak was the Third Elder, Ling Muyan’s master.
Ling Muyan listened, her eyes slightly averted, respectfully asking, "Is it related to Junior Sister?"
The Third Elder didn’t answer immediately but stared at Ling Muyan for a while.
After a few seconds, he retracted his gaze, speaking to Ling Muyan, "Do you know what she has done?"
Ling Muyan replied, "Disciple does not know."
The Third Elder responded, "She attempted to kill Yang Siran and eight other Medical Alliance disciples in the Trial Realm."
Upon hearing this, surprise flickered in Ling Muyan’s eyes, and then she raised her eyes to the Third Elder, "Isn’t it impossible to kill anyone within the Trial Realm?"
"Moreover... aren’t Junior Sister Yang and the others standing here unscathed?"
There was no suspicion in her tone, as if she was just purely puzzled and thus asked.
Upon hearing that, Yang Siran immediately spoke up, "She wasn’t aware of the new rules in the Trial Realm."
"I personally heard her say she wanted to kill us."
"The fellow disciples can all attest to this."
As Yang Siran spoke, the others standing behind her nodded in agreement.
Ling Muyan paused for a few seconds before turning to Xiao Yixue, "Junior Sister, how could you be so confused?"
Xiao Yixue heard and moved her lips, wanting to say something but eventually said nothing.
Upon hearing Ling Muyan’s words, Yang Siran began to curse directly, "Bah! Hypocrisy, Xiao Yixue indeed said it was you who instructed her to kill us."
Earlier, when Xiao Yixue accused Ling Muyan of instructing her, Yang Siran had doubted her.
After all, Ling Muyan’s reputation and the image she built were too good.
However, the more Yang Siran thought about it, the more things seemed wrong.
Xiao Yixue had always been obedient and protective toward Ling Muyan.
If Ling Muyan hadn’t instructed her, why would she mention Ling Muyan’s name?
Moreover, she had indeed said it herself previously,
