The accusation of colluding with demons was brought up. Looking at Xu Jie standing below with a straight back and a righteous expression, even the Second Elder on the main seat couldn't help but twitch his lips.
The disciples of Divine Sword Peak behind him, upon hearing Xu Jie's words, shouted excitedly one after another.
"That's right, the disciples of Luoxia Sect are harboring malicious intentions, trying to harm our Junior Brother Changqing."
"Such vile people, what wrong has our Divine Sword Peak committed?"

"We implore the Second Elder to seize them and interrogate them strictly."
At this mont, the disciples of Luoxia Sect seed to have beco unforgivable sinners, as if they were burdened with endless grievances.
In contrast to the fervent disciples of Divine Sword Peak, the disciples of Luoxia Sect were trembling with anger, and He Lu clenched her fists tightly, her gaze almost turning into daggers as she stared at Ye Changqing.
The only one who remained calm at the scene was probably Ye Changqing.
Or rather, Ye Changqing was dumbfounded by Xu Jie's words. He hadn't realized before that his Third Senior Brother had such eloquence.
Listening to the clamor of the Divine Sword Peak disciples below, the Second Elder rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on.
"Elder, this is slander, a false accusation. We had no such intention, and the reason we ca to Dao Yi Sect to break off the engagent was also considering that Ye Changqing is a disciple of Dao Yi Sect."
At this mont, He Lu gritted her teeth and spoke, her voice low, as if containing infinite anger.
Looking at He Lu, whose eyes were full of unwillingness, stubbornness, and anger, Xu Jie sneered.
"Heh, slander and false accusation? The disciples of Divine Sword Peak are upright and honest, why would they need to slander and falsely accuse? If you don't want people to know, don't do it."
"You..."
"Enough."
Seeing the two about to clash, the Second Elder intervened to stop them. This matter was becoming difficult to handle, and just at that mont, Hongzun staggered in.
Seeing Hongzun, the Second Elder felt even more troubled and said helplessly.
"Junior Brother, why are you here?"
"Soone dares to harm my Divine Sword Peak disciples, how can I, as the Peak Master, not co? Should I just watch as my disciples are hard?"
As expected, Hongzun's words only added fuel to the fire.
Initially, Hongzun didn't take this matter to heart, but upon hearing that He Lu's intended to break off the engagent with Ye Changqing, he couldn't sit still and rushed to the Enforcent Hall.
While speaking, Hongzun walked to Ye Changqing's side, smiling as he sized him up.
"How are you? Are you alright?"
"Thank you for your concern, Peak Master. I'm fine."
"That's good."
After saying this, Hongzun's gaze shifted directly to Yu Li, his expression changing from a drunken deanor to one filled with a chilling aura, as he questioned.
"Yu Li, I helped you out of goodwill before, but I didn't expect your Luoxia Sect to harbor such malicious intentions and dare to harm my Divine Sword Peak disciples."
"Senior Brother, you..."
"Still trying to argue? You said your disciple just wanted to see her fiancé, and I kindly let Liu Shuang accompany her. I didn't expect you were here to break off the engagent, intending to disrupt my disciple's Dao heart."
Goodness, like master, like disciple.
Xu Jie at least mixed truth with falsehood, but when Hongzun spoke, it was pure nonsense.
Hearing this, Yu Li trembled with anger.
She had clearly stated her intentions from the beginning, and Hongzun had agreed, only asking for so compensation.
Yet now, this old man completely denied it and even turned the tables.
"Hongzun, I clearly said that I ca here to break off the engagent, and you..."
"What do you an, 'and you'? At this point, you still want to argue? I see it clearly now, your Luoxia Sect disciples are so vicious, it must be related to you as an Elder."
"As the saying goes, 'If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked.' It's because you, as an Elder, are not clean, so your disciples are all these despicable and shaless people."
"You... what did you say?"
Yu Li was so furious at Hongzun's words that her hair stood on end. Seeing this, the Second Elder quickly interrupted.
"Junior Brother, calm down first."
"How can I calm down? My disciples are being hard, and it's happening right under my nose. Luoxia Sect is going too far."
"If I don't give my disciples an explanation today, how can I face being the Peak Master of Divine Sword Peak?"
Hongzun was filled with righteous indignation, while the Second Elder was utterly helpless. His gaze inadvertently fell on Ye Changqing in the crowd, and he imdiately asked.
"Ye Changqing."
Since Ye Changqing was the root of this matter, the Second Elder intended to address it directly from the source.
"Disciple is here."
"Do you have anything to say?"
"? Disciple..."
Ye Changqing was just about to speak when Hongzun interrupted him directly.
"Changqing, I know you are kind-hearted and sentintal, and you still can't let go of this woman. But this woman is malicious and not a suitable match. Listen to , when it's ti to cut, cut it off. If you can't bear to punish her, then divorce her and don't contact her again."
Hongzun said with a serious expression, and without waiting for Ye Changqing to reply, he turned to He Lu and Yu Li.
"Yu Li, considering our past friendship, I can let this matter go. However, your disciple is truly not worthy of Changqing. Today, as the Peak Master of Divine Sword Peak, I will decide on behalf of Changqing to divorce your disciple. You should also provide so compensation, and we will let this matter rest, but only this once, and it should not happen again."
"You..."
Seeing Hongzun acting so magnanimously, Yu Li trembled as she pointed at him, unable to utter a single word.
Clearly, they were the ones who suffered a great loss, but from Hongzun's words, it seed as if he was being lenient.
Moreover, breaking off the engagent turned into a divorce, which was simply an insult to their master-disciple relationship.
"What, you don't agree? I've already considered our past relationship. If that's the case, then we can only handle it according to Dao Yi Sect's rules."
"Second Senior Brother, what is the punishnt for harming a Dao Yi Sect disciple?"
"This..."
Faced with Hongzun's question, the Second Elder was montarily at a loss for words. If soone was caught harming a Dao Yi Sect disciple, the punishnt would certainly be death.
Seeing the situation, Yu Li took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her anger, and said coldly.
"Fine, fine, fine, Hongzun, I will rember today's events."
The situation was stronger than the person, and this was still Dao Yi Sect's territory. Yu Li truly didn't expect that from the Peak Master down, Divine Sword Peak would be so shaless.
They could turn black into white, and for a nial disciple, they wouldn't give her any face.
Knowing that continuing to argue would only lead to more losses, Yu Li was forced to agree to Hongzun's demands, feeling extrely humiliated.
In response, Hongzun calmly looked at Ye Changqing and said.
"Changqing, write the divorce letter."
In front of everyone, Ye Changqing wrote the divorce letter on the spot. The mont He Lu received it, she couldn't stop trembling with anger.
Before coming, she had considered many possibilities, but she never expected it to end like this.
