"Qingyi, this time, no matter how eloquently you speak, you have nothing to say, right?"
The expression on Huaa Yan, the ancestor of the Huaa Clan, suddenly turned exceptionally cold.
"Tell me the whereabouts of Wushuang’s unborn child. As long as we confirm that Wushuang has an heir, this matter can come to an end! At that time, all we need is for these people to accompany my grandson in death, and the matter can be settled!"
With a wave of his hand, Huaa Yan directly singled out the twelve True Disciples from the Phantom Divine Sect who were competing for the Black Dragon Ranking.
Sect Leader Fuh Dongxing’s vision darkened and he nearly fell from the sky.
So it ends, so it is settled!
As if the lives of more than ten Sect Elders of our Phantom Divine Sect had been in vain.
To require twelve True Disciples to die with them!
These twelve True Disciples competing for the Black Dragon Ranking were the elite of the Phantom Divine Sect!
If all these True Disciples were to die with him, then for the next thirty or even fifty years, the Phantom Divine Sect wouldn’t be able to recover.
The countenance of Supreme Elder Huan Cang turned dark upon hearing this, ready to fight to the death with Huaa Yan.
Qingyi kept signaling the Sect Leader to calm down. After all, the so-called unborn child was the Huaa Clan’s lifeline, and it was still in his hands.
"Hmph, are the lives of my Phantom Divine Sect’s disciples so worthless? Qingyi, inform the Supreme Elder about the unborn child of the Huaa Clan through a soul transmission, and ask the Supreme Elder to kill him directly. We might as well have a desperate fight to the end if it comes to that!" Sect Leader Fuh Dongxing was also enraged!
"A desperate fight to the end? Everyone perishes together?"
Suddenly, Family Head Huaa Zhu of the Tiannan Huaa Family laughed unangrily, not only laughing but laughing incredibly radiantly.
"Sect Leader Fuh, it seems you are very confident in dealing with our Huaa Clan? Do you really think we have no one left? Do you truly believe all our ancestors who went to the Outer Domain to seek breakthroughs in their Cultivation are gone?"
"Let me inform you of something. Twelve years ago, great-grandfather Huaa Minghao came back once, and his Cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Establishment Realm!
Do you know who my great-grandfather Huaa Minghao is? The Sword Immortal of the Flowers, who alone exterminated the True Flame Sect of the Phantom Divine Empire and eradicated the Blood God Sect alongside Dragon King Jie Tianhe!"
"Huaa Minghao... He’s still alive?" Supreme Elder Huan Cang from the Phantom Divine Sect suddenly became unusually pale.
"Hehe, not only is my great-grandfather still alive, but my great-great-grandfather, Flower King, um, the Flower King who forced your Phantom Divine Sect’s Sect Leader Huyan Ci to death with a palm strike five hundred years ago.
Twenty-five years ago, around the time my son Huaa Wushuang was born, he also came back and personally performed the Bone Marrow Cleansing for Wushuang. And his Cultivation has already broken through to the Establishment Realm!"
"Broken through to the Establishment Realm..." Supreme Elder Huan Cang from the Phantom Divine Sect started to tremble.
"So what? By the time they come back next, your Huaa Clan will already be finished! Our Phantom Divine Sect will also be finished by then. Stop trying to scare us with these shadows of the past!
Your Huaa Clan seems to have no more tricks but to intimidate people with the majesty of past generations!" Fuh Dongxing laughed scornfully.
"Yes, by that time, both our Huaa Clan and your Phantom Divine Sect will be finished! But my great-grandfather once said, if the Tiannan Huaa Clan were to be destroyed, then the entire Phantom Divine Empire would no longer have any reason to exist!"
"Destroy the entire Phantom Divine Empire? Can he kill his way here?"
"You can ask Huan Cang what the Sword Immortal of the Flowers, Huaa Minghao’s style is like!"
At this point, a hint of pride suddenly appeared in Huaa Zhu’s demeanor, "Regarding the extermination of our clan, we, the Huaa Clan, have never been afraid, never been afraid!
Because no matter what, by that time, the entire Phantom Divine Empire and even the majority of the Black Dragon Domain will accompany our clan to death!"
"Hmph, to annihilate our Huaa Clan, do they have the capability?" Huaa Yan sneered coldly.
Hiss!
From afar, Ye Zhen took in another sharp intake of breath.
The Huaa Clan actually still had two old monsters living in the Outer Domain, one of whom had even broken through to the Establishment Realm. In an instant, Ye Zhen felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
After much pondering, the Phantom Divine Sect’s Grand Elder Qing Yii’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Sect Leader, Elder Huaa, I have suddenly come across a doubt. Would you please listen and see if you could help me solve it?"
The Huaa Clan’s ancestral patriarch Huaa Yan stared fiercely at Qing Yii, but eventually, the anger in his eyes subsided.
If Wushuang has left a child behind, that means there is still hope for the Huaa Clan!
For the sake of the clan’s hope, he could only endure.
"Speak!"
"Just now, the unworthy disciple Zuo Bin said he obtained this storage ring from the corpse of our sect’s deceased True Inheritor, Bu Changtian!"
So, who killed Bu Changtian?
If it’s said that Huaa Wushuang fought with Bu Changtian, why is it that Bu Changtian is the one who died?
If it is claimed that Bu Changtian killed Huaa Wushuang, but someone else killed Bu Changtian, why didn’t that person take Bu Changtian’s possessions?
Moreover, the most important point is that our sect’s True Inheritor, Bu Changtian, did not have the strength to slay Huaa Wushuang. Not even a surprise attack would suffice! This was witnessed by all during the Black Dragon Ranking competition!"
"Therefore, various doubts arise! Who exactly killed Huaa Wushuang, who killed Bu Changtian? Or is all this a conspiracy?"
With Qing Yii throwing out one question after another, Huaa Yan, Huaa Zhu, Fuh Dongxing, Huan Cang, and others furrowed their brows increasingly, not realizing the extent of the problems until they began to ponder it. Indeed, there were many suspicious points.
"If your Huaa Clan is willing to find out the real murderer of Huaa Wushuang, then you must carefully consider these questions," added Qing Yii.
"Hmph, there are indeed doubts here, who knows if what Zuo Bin says is true, if it’s not a lie concocted by you all together to deceive us!" Huaa Zhu snorted coldly.
"This....."
Qing Yii hesitated a bit, but then a flash of Spirit Light on Huaa Yan’s hand, his large hands immediately covered Zuo Bin’s forehead, and a tremendous surge of Divine Soul Waves abruptly rose from Huaa Yan’s body.
"Soul Search..." Qing Yii silently gave a bitter smile.
The Sect Leader of the Phantom Divine Sect, Fuh Dongxing, clenched his steel teeth, making a grinding noise. Watching someone perform a Soul Search on his own disciple right in front of him was, in Fuh Dongxing’s view, a humiliation to the sect, an extreme humiliation!
Even if his disciple had committed a great wrong, if execution was warranted, it should be he, the Sect Leader, to carry it out, not permitting others to intervene.
But at this moment, all he could do was swallow this humiliation alive.
Grit-grrr-grrr......
Zuo Bin let out a heart-wrenching groan from his throat, his limbs flailing wildly, eyes bulging with fury, and veins protruding on his forehead and the back of his hands, as if he were enduring extreme agony.
Blood, like miniature fountains, spurted from Zuo Bin’s orifices. The bulging veins began to burst, one after another, with blood arrows shooting out from his body.
Puh!
Zuo Bin’s head suddenly exploded like a watermelon, covering Huaa Yan’s hand with red and white matter.
Yet Huaa Yan seemed unfazed, pondering intently.
This scene made Ye Zhen’s hair stand on end.
Soul Search!
Seeing Zuo Bin’s pained expression, although it was silent, the agony could perhaps only be known to Zuo Bin himself.
Suddenly, Ye Zhen felt somewhat guilty; he had led Zuo Bin into quite a severe trap.
But in the next moment, Ye Zhen’s heart turned to stone.
If he hadn’t been prepared in advance, he might have already met with a complete family disaster!
"Hmm... what Zuo Bin said is true! Moreover, from Zuo Bin’s memory, it is known that when he arrived at the scene, Bu Changtian had been dead for quite some time, and there were no signs of fierce fighting at the scene, truly odd!"
"Elder Qingyi, since you have thought this matter through so thoroughly, what is your opinion?" Huaa Yan suddenly spoke.
At these words, Qingyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Elder Huaa, do you still think that my Phantom Divine Sect plotted against your grandson Huaa Wushuang?"
"I cannot rule it out!" Huaa Yan snorted coldly.
"Elder Huaa, in fact, in the investigation prior to this, we had already found the real culprit. Unfortunately, just as we were about to inform you, you launched a surprise attack, leading to this terrible tragedy!" Qingyi said.
"Who is the real culprit?"
"Ye Zhen!"
"The number one on the Black Dragon Ranking, Ye Zhen!"
"You from the Huaa family must have got the news about the Black Dragon Ranking tournament as well, haven’t you?"
"Your grandson Huaa Wushuang had vowed time and time again to take Ye Zhen’s life! But during the competition, your grandson was narrowly defeated by Ye Zhen and nearly lost his life!"
"Moreover, among the seventy-two strong contenders in the Black Dragon Ranking, the only one capable of killing Huaa Wushuang who had a grudge against him is this Ye Zhen! Furthermore, this Ye Zhen happens to have a grudge against both our Phantom Divine Sect and Bu Changtian!
That’s right, it must have been Ye Zhen who killed Huaa Wushuang and then framed our Phantom Divine Sect!"
"Scoundrel!"
"How could it be!" Sect Leader Fuh Dongxing’s face filled with astonishment, followed by his fists clenching fiercely, "That Ye Zhen, this sect leader will surely tear him into pieces!"
In an instant, everyone in the Phantom Divine Sect seethed with hatred, desiring nothing more than to devour Ye Zhen’s flesh and blood.
Meanwhile, Ye Zhen was stunned.
Damn, this could actually work.
This Qingyi really was formidable, deducing the cause and consequences of the matter so quickly.
Ye Zhen realized that the Phantom Divine Sect must have intentionally framed him.
However, after framing him, they connected the dots from before and after, completely understanding the entire cause and consequences. Then, they were utterly furious.
Of course, even if this matter hadn’t been Ye Zhen’s doing, the Phantom Divine Sect would still have definitely framed him.
"Could the real culprit be that Ye Zhen?"
Elder Huaa’s brows furrowed deeply. As Qingyi had said, the Huaa family also had their sources of information, and they had checked the events of the Black Dragon Ranking tournament.
And Huaa Wushuang’s storage ring was found within the Black Dragon Secret Palace; therefore, the murderer could only be one of the seventy-two Martial Artists who entered the Black Dragon Secret Palace.
The number one on the Black Dragon Ranking, Ye Zhen, was the prime suspect!
In an instant, Huaa Yan made a decision!
Worst case scenario, he would traverse the world, hunt down each of the seventy-two Martial Artists on the Black Dragon Ranking list, soul search and execute each one, and find the true murderer to avenge his grandson Huaa Wushuang.
The first target would be that number one on the Black Dragon Ranking list... Ye Zhen!
But the first priority now was to find Huaa Wushuang’s hidden child.
"Zhu’er, once we find Wushuang’s hidden child, you and I, father and son, will seek out each and every one of the seventy-two Martial Artists on the Black Dragon Ranking list, conduct soul searches, execute them, and find the real murderer to avenge Wushuang!
The first target will be the number one on the Black Dragon Ranking... Ye Zhen!"
Hearing Huaa Yan’s words, Ye Zhen suddenly shivered not far away.
Upon hearing this, Qingyi let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that the disaster of sect annihilation had finally been averted.
"Qingyi, where is the hidden child of my Wushuang? You can tell me now, can’t you?" Huaa Yan asked slowly.
A complicated look flashed in Qingyi’s eyes as he nodded slightly, and steeled his heart.
"Regarding the hidden child of your grandson Wushuang, I’m not entirely sure, but I do have such intelligence!" Qingyi did not dare to speak too confidently.
"Speak!"
"According to the intelligence, Luluo, a True Disciple of the Qingluo Sect in the Phantom Divine Empire, once had a tragic love affair with your grandson Huaa Wushuang!"
Far away, Ye Zhen froze upon hearing these words.
The next moment, Ye Zhen’s forehead veins throbbed wildly, and he pointed at Qingyi, cursing furiously.
"Qingyi, you old bastard, have you no shame? I’m cursing your ancestors!"
Shua!
