Megan bit her lips as she faced Watson's difficult questions and ridicules. Then, she slowly said, "The Immortal Pure Scriptures I practiced had the Cosmic Orbit Formations. And I learned the Immortal Pure Scriptures from Zhang Jue—"
Megan explained in detail how she encountered Zhang Jue and how she deceived him into giving away his ultimate techniques in Lu Bu's ancient tomb.
Megan glanced around in shame at the crowd after she finished. "I wanted to monopolize the ultimate techniques, so I stabbed Zhang Jue with a sword after I got it out of him. I didn't know that he survived. He managed to escape and became Yang Jian's Military Adviser—"
Megan had not wanted to reveal her past. After all, it was detrimental to her image, but that was the only thing she could do to win everyone's trust.
'What?'
For a moment, the main hall fell silent. Everyone gave Megan a conflicted stare; they were disgusted.
Megan was a vicious woman. She pulled a trick on Zhang Jue, and she even wanted to kill him.
Darryl also drew in a deep breath as he felt overwhelmed by the truth.
Megan used to be savagely violent, but fortunately, she had changed for the better. Otherwise, she should not be spared.
"Everyone!"
Megan's face became calm once again. She looked around and slowly said, "Now, all of you should believe in me, right? I have learned the Immortal Pure Scriptures, and I also know the Cosmic Orbit Formations. I can help Alliance Master deal with Zhang Jue."
The main hall fell silent. No one responded; they were contemplating.
Suddenly, Watson sneered mockingly and broke the silence. Then, he shook his head at Megan. "Megan, Megan, you don't have to be so hypocritical. You have said it yourself—you learned this from Zhang Jue. Now, it is obvious that you are an agent sent by Zhang Jue. You must have fabricated the story about you trying to kill Zhang Jue. Can one still live after their heart vein was pierced? It is impossible. You've made up this lie that you don't even believe in yourself—"
"Yes, Cult Master's analysis made sense."
"I've wondered why Megan is so helpful? It turns out that she is a spy from the enemy's camp."
"How disgusting of you to play us like kids—"
Many of them glared at Megan as they hurled hurtful remarks at her and criticized her.
