This young talent was one of Blood Immortal Ancestor's disciples, who had once pursued Wang Xiaoqiang. At that ti, due to the taboos of the Extermination Society and being tightly controlled by Blood Immortal Ancestor, he did not take action against Wang Xiaoqiang. Now seeing him again, and discovering that Wang Xiaoqiang had beco the great-grandson-in-law of dicine Immortal Ancestor, his jealousy of Wang Xiaoqiang's good fortune inevitably turned into sneers and sarcasm,
After all, Wang Xiaoqiang had robbed Blood Immortal Ancestor of his Divine Arrow and obtained his legacy, so how could they, as disciples of Blood Immortal Ancestor, accept this?
"Oh-ho, so this is the groom, eh? Huh? I recognize this groom. Ancestor, quickly take a look, isn't this the Wang Xiaoqiang who stole your Divine Arrow and later acquired your Blood Immortal Legacy?"
Blood Immortal Ancestor was seated at this banquet table; he had long seen Wang Xiaoqiang. Upon seeing him, his eyes imdiately turned red with anger. Wang Xiaoqiang had stolen his Divine Arrow and obtained his Blood Immortal legacy; how could he let Wang Xiaoqiang go?
However, the other four ancestors have been intentionally watching over him since the Hundred-Day Demon Extermination Society, especially that female ancestor. It seems as if she cherishes Wang Xiaoqiang as a talent and has been finding excuses to delay him, leaving him no chance to strike at Wang Xiaoqiang until he received the invitation from dicine Immortal Ancestor.
Who would have thought he'd really run into him here, but unfortunately, Wang Xiaoqiang was now different, having beco dicine Immortal Ancestor's great-grandson-in-law. He wanted to act against Wang Xiaoqiang, but it was too late.
dicine Immortal Ancestor was a Two-Crown Heavenly Immortal, with cultivation power comparable to his own, and had such vast networks and friends. How could he dare to make a move? That would be courting death.
Although he didn't dare to act, he dared to speak; he had long hated Wang Xiaoqiang to the core. Now seeing everyone ridiculing him, he deliberately let his disciple mock and slander Wang Xiaoqiang to tarnish his reputation.
Blood Immortal Ancestor stared coldly at Wang Xiaoqiang and sneered, "Hah, how could I not recognize him? Even if he were burned to ashes, I'd still recognize him. The notorious Ocean Bandit, Wang Xiaoqiang, how could I, Blood Immortal Ancestor, not know him..."
Everyone was already looking down on Wang Xiaoqiang, and suddenly seeing Blood Immortal Ancestor and his disciple ridiculing and slandering him had them greatly interested.
However, after hearing Blood Immortal Ancestor's words, their view of Wang Xiaoqiang changed. Their disdain was noticeably lessened; soone who could steal Blood Immortal Ancestor's Divine Arrow and gain his legacy must be extraordinary, though he had a reputation for theft, certainly not a benevolent person.
At this mont, the crowd's attitude toward Wang Xiaoqiang shifted from disdain to contempt.
By now, Wang Xiaoqiang had beco the focus of everyone's gaze. Blood Immortal Ancestor wanted to slander him, so naturally, he had to fight back; otherwise, his reputation would be ruined, and dicine Immortal Ancestor would not dare keep him.
Staring at Blood Immortal Ancestor, Wang Xiaoqiang gave a playful smile and said, "Blood Immortal Ancestor, we et again. I thought you were dead, yet you're still alive..."
"You..." Blood Immortal Ancestor's disciple was about to strike with an angry expression, but Blood Immortal Ancestor stopped him and said through clenched teeth, "Wang Xiaoqiang, to be honest, I almost died at the hands of you, a Heaven-Piercing Thief..."
Wang Xiaoqiang snorted, "Blood Immortal Ancestor, on my joyous day, you falsely accuse of such dubious cris. What is your intention?"
Blood Immortal Ancestor glared, "Wang Xiaoqiang, did I wrong you? Dare you say it wasn't you who stole my Divine Arrow?"
Wang Xiaoqiang sneered, "Blood Immortal Ancestor, I indeed stole your Divine Arrow, but have you ever wondered why I had to steal your Divine Arrow?"
Blood Immortal Ancestor was left speechless.
"Your Immortal Field was in public space where anyone could inadvertently trespass. Moreover, you set a restriction there and even placed a Blood Demon to guard it. It's like a hunter setting traps and dogs; you treated the cultivators as prey. I, Wang Xiaoqiang, unfortunately, beca your prey. I accidentally trespassed into your Immortal Field, and your restriction trapped . To break your restriction, I had to use your Divine Arrow..."
As Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, the crowd started to murmur. It turned out there was more to the story, and at this ti, people began to criticize Blood Immortal Ancestor heavily. Others had also mistakenly trespassed into his Immortal Field, only to be trapped by its restriction and beca his prey, refined into Blood Demons or Puppets. After all, Blood Immortal Ancestor was not a good person, being a cultivator skilled in Demon Arts.
"Since you broke my restriction, why did you still take my Divine Arrow?" Blood Immortal Ancestor, seeing public opinion turn in Wang Xiaoqiang's favor, abruptly stood up and pointed at him with an angry question.
"Your restriction trapped for days and even used demons to attack . Could I not seek compensation instead of vengeance?" Wang Xiaoqiang shot back.
The crowd again murmured, everyone saying Blood Immortal Ancestor deserved it, and Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't be blad.
"Kid, you're just good at sophistry. Fine, you fooled everyone, you set up the old , and now you're setting up dicine Immortal Ancestor. If I'm not mistaken, dicine Immortal Ancestor's dicine Fragrance Courtyard was destroyed by you, his pills stolen by you." Blood Immortal Ancestor accused Wang Xiaoqiang.
The discussions among the guests changed again, the topic now revolving around dicine Immortal Ancestor. The destruction of the dicine Fragrance Courtyard and the theft of pills had long been discussed, known to everyone. Moreover, they had heard of Dai Rui's disappearance. Now everyone speculated whether this was related to Wang Xiaoqiang. Or was this indeed Wang Xiaoqiang's doing?
"Blood Immortal Ancestor, do you have proof?"
"I have no proof, but one day, the truth will be revealed to the world."
"Without proof, you're just spewing nonsense." Wang Xiaoqiang pointed at Blood Immortal Ancestor, shouting angrily.
Just then, dicine Immortal Ancestor walked over and said, "I have proof."
On hearing this, the guests fell silent, and all eyes turned to dicine Immortal Ancestor. Dai Rui's face turned pale without blood, while Blood Immortal Ancestor and his disciple seed both surprised and pleased, thinking that dicine Immortal Ancestor was about to present evidence against Wang Xiaoqiang.
However, unexpectedly, dicine Immortal Ancestor said, "I have evidence to prove Wang Xiaoqiang is innocent."
dicine Immortal Ancestor declared as he took out a box of pills, "The situation is not as you imagine. The dicine Fragrance Courtyard was destroyed, but it was not the work of Wang Xiaoqiang, and my pills were not stolen. Here they are, priceless, now in my hands... Moreover, Blood Immortal Ancestor, your imagination is quite wild. If Wang Xiaoqiang was the thief you say, why would I marry my great-granddaughter to him..."
This statent caused the guests to burst into discussions, all unanimously condemning Blood Immortal Ancestor for his baseless slander, as Wang Xiaoqiang was the least likely suspect.
In fact, Wang Xiaoqiang was indeed the Heaven-Piercing Thief that Blood Immortal Ancestor spoke of. However, given Wang Xiaoqiang had beco dicine Immortal Ancestor's great-grandson-in-law, no slander against him was permissible. If his reputation were ruined, it would also ruin dicine Immortal Ancestor's reputation.
To preserve Wang Xiaoqiang's na, he had to distort the facts.
"Hmph," Blood Immortal Ancestor abruptly sat back down and said, "dicine Immortal Ancestor, no matter what, your great-grandson-in-law stole my Divine Arrow, and today, in front of all these heroes, I want justice..."
"Justice? Hmph, you want justice? I also demand an explanation. On the joyous day of my great-grandson-in-law, do you slander his reputation, disrespecting ? Do you intend to tarnish my na?"
"dicine Immortal Ancestor, you're the one who invited to the wedding, not coming uninvited. If I'm not welco, I'll take my leave."
Blood Immortal Ancestor knew that today the guests were mostly cultivators of profound strengths, many of whom were old friends and acquaintances of dicine Immortal Ancestor. If a fight broke out, these people would stand by him, leaving him and his disciple isolated and at a disadvantage. Fear crept into his heart, and so he stood to leave. However, unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoqiang raised his hand and splashed wine from his cup directly onto Blood Immortal Ancestor's face. "Being invited here is a matter of courtesy; if you choose to behave disgracefully, bla yourself," he shouted.
Blood Immortal Ancestor and the guests were stunned. Wang Xiaoqiang, an Earth Immortal Three Coils, actually splashed wine on him. Even if he was dicine Immortal Ancestor's great-grandson-in-law, would he really have the courage to act so brazenly in front of a superior? Was he not afraid Blood Immortal Ancestor would rage and strike him down instantly?
