Worried that Song Wanning would twist the truth, the Sect Master stepped forward to explain.

"His reason was that she had poisoned his precious disciple's Elixir Pills."
"But they have no physical evidence, nor do they have any witnesses. They want to use a Soul Search to convict my disciple based on mere speculation..."
"The Sect Master can't tell right from wrong. It's one thing for him not to uphold justice, but he's even siding with Gu Qingyuan's faction. It's utterly unconvincing!"
Without any embellishment, she succinctly explained the entire course of events.
