"Young Heavenly Master, why did you want to stop just now? What do you want to say?"
The words were calm, yet seed a bit nonchalant. Qingyu looked at Zhang Yuanchu and spoke lightly.
Zhang Yuanchu's face was calm, but his gaze was not as unperturbed. He never imagined that in the earlier clash, he would be at a disadvantage.
Zhang Yuanchu's son, Zhang Yangping, if still alive, would be nearly forty. At such an age, to slightly fall short under the hands of young Qingyu, what Zhang Yuanchu cultivated in Daoist Skill over the years, even his ntal State, couldn't quite endure it.
Nonetheless, he forcibly suppressed his anger and embarrassnt and said solemnly, "I do not agree for Qingyu to beco the new Sect Leader of the Zhenwu Sect because he is a butcher, an assassin with blood-stained hands. He is Gong Ziyu!"
A stone stirs a thousand waves; the Taiji Palace was instantly filled with uproar.
At the foot of the mountain, Zhang Yuanchu had already stated Qingyu was a butcher, but people at that ti didn't know what he ant by butcher.
Now, they understand.
Gong Ziyu, Dragon Chief of the Azure Dragon Association, a man of slaughter. From his rise to fall, although Gong Ziyu was only at the Divine Origin Realm, the traces he left in the worldly society have not yet dispersed.
At least, countless people still ntion him, utter his na, wishing that he suffers a thousand pains in hell, never to reincarnate.
Now, Zhang Yuanchu says Gong Ziyu is not dead, he is this soon to be, no, already the new Sect Leader of Zhenwu Sect.
"Stop your nonsense!"
"Young Heavenly Master, please watch your words!"
"Zhang Yuanchu, don't speak recklessly!"
······
The Peak Masters of the Zhenwu Seven Peaks all rebuked, especially Xuan Zheng and Xuan Lin, who were the most agitated. Xuan Zheng even wanted to draw his sword to defend the Sect Leader's honor, regardless of the opponent being a Divine Communication realm expert.
To be honest, hearing these voices, Qingyu was truly moved inside (with a laugh).
"Young Heavenly Master, I warned you at the foot of the mountain, do not spread rumors to slander our Zhenwu Sect Leader. As it seems now, you have treated my words as passing wind."
Pale white qi stealthily appeared, Xuan Zhen's phoenix eyes held ferocity, and murderous intent firmly locked on Zhang Yuanchu. Simultaneously, Tong Hua was also quietly circulating True Qi, his aura rising, as if about to make a move.
From these two as the starting point, everyone in Zhenwu Sect stared intently at Zhang Yuanchu, exuding fierce murderous intent.
Regardless of dissatisfaction with Qingyu, these people regarded the Zhenwu Sect with utmost importance. Anyone trying to harm the Zhenwu Sect would face a death battle from them unhesitatingly.
As the target of murderous intent, Zhang Yuanchu also felt a chill in his heart, but he remained unafraid.
"What? Trying to silence by killing?" Zhang Yuanchu sneered, "Don't forget, peers from the worldly society are all present this ti. Sword Palace, Great Zen Temple, Yu Jian Manor... everyone is watching you. Trying to silence by killing is sheer delusion."
"Master Tong Hua, also Master Xuan Zhen, I, Xiao, think it would be better to let the Young Heavenly Master explain why he is so sure Qingyu is Gong Ziyu. If there's any misunderstanding, it can be explained clearly." Yu Jian Manor Master Xiao Qianxiu was the first to step forward and speak.
"Indeed, it would be best to clarify."
"With us here, there will be no misunderstanding of Master Qingyu."
······
Countless followed the lead.
Qingyu lightly glanced at Xiao Qianxiu, and those cheering, realizing they were sects with old ties to Dragon Tiger Mountain or like Yu Jian Manor, sects allied with the court and Dragon Tiger Mountain.
The people of Sword Palace, led by Yuan Jianyi, though the strongest was that gray-clad elder, whose decayed body concealed unparalleled sharpness, was undoubtedly a Divinity Realm powerhouse.
They remained indifferent, rely watching the situation unfold.
The people of the Great Zen Temple were also observing without interference, but there seed to be a deeper aning in Shi Jue's gaze.
The silence of these two sects also caused so sects to watch from the sidelines, without joining in the jeering crowd.
"Everyone, please be quiet." Qingyu raised a hand and gently pressed down, bringing the uproarious voices to a halt, and the Zhenwu Sect mbers also restrained their tense atmosphere.
An invisible pressure weighed on the heart, bringing silence to the hall. All Divine Communication realm experts witnessed this with surprise, as Qingyu's display showed superior strength.
Because the previous pressure even affected the Divine Communication realm experts. Though not deeply, nearly imperceptibly, it indeed existed.
He maintained a calm deanor, with no sign of disturbance, looking at Zhang Yuanchu and speaking softly, "Young Heavenly Master, you say I am Gong Ziyu, then please present evidence. As everyone knows, Gong Ziyu was the Sixth Prince of Northern Zhou, Feng Chaonan, who died in the Northern Zhou Divine City years ago. To accuse falsely, you must at least provide convincing evidence."
"The Sixth Prince of Northern Zhou was just a scapegoat; Gong Ziyu managed to remain hidden despite the pursuit of many, it wouldn't be so easy for him to die."
Zhang Yuanchu said coldly, "Qingyu, you indeed are a prodigy, having achieved today's strength and status in such a few years. But don't forget, when you left Yang City, you were forced by the 'Chasing Wind Divine Constable' Lu Qifeng of Six Gates to join them, there is a dossier on you in Six Gates."
He took out a brown scroll, unfurling it directly, as it rolled a long distance on the ground.
"You infiltrated Mountain River Academy, acting as an undercover for Six Gates, participated in the Literary Arena, approached the current Emperor Zhou, Feng Jiuwu, and secretly sold Longevity Powder, poisoning the world.
After joining hands with Six Gates Silver Seal Constables Bu Lengchuan and Luo Yan to kill the traitorous constable Lin Tengyuan in Linchuan Prefecture, you donned a mask and created the identity of Gong Ziyu.
With this identity, you committed countless slaughters. Not to ntion anything else, even the nearly ten thousand lives of my Dragon Tiger Mountain disciples are enough for you to be cut into a thousand pieces undeserving of your sins. Qingyu, your cris are unspeakable, today is the day you et your end."
The lengthy scroll recorded nurous incidents. Not only what Zhang Yuanchu ntioned, but many blood grievances also related to Gong Ziyu, shocking to the core.
But······
Qingyu rely chuckled softly, "The things you ntioned were done by Gong Ziyu, what have they to do with , Qingyu."
"Even now, you're still trying to argue." Zhang Yuanchu shouted angrily.
"It's not an argunt, but the one-sided words from Six Gates cannot convict ."
Qingyu raised his voice, "Everyone, you should know, in Northern Zhou I have an identity, which is the Director of the Imperial Observatory of Northern Zhou. Daqian is opposed to Northern Zhou, and I assisted Northern Zhou in stabilizing the Dragon Vein, repelling the Grassland Wolf Barbarians, considered a ritorious figure for Northern Zhou and an enemy to Daqian. Although I have now left Northern Zhou, Daqian still sees as an enemy."
"Though Six Gates is an authority in investigation, it doesn't an they wouldn't falsely accuse the innocent. Letting my enemies accuse , isn't it akin to the Shenxiao Dao accusing the Young Heavenly Master of being a demonic person?"
