Although the four people all saw Su Yang, none of them spoke to him, as if he didn’t exist at all.
Su Yang frowned. He understood the Second Elder’s intention—he was letting the fifteen families clash with Su Yang first to exhaust his strength.
Once the strength of these fifteen families was mostly depleted, Su Yang’s power would also be nearly drained. At that point, they could take action against Su Yang without expending much effort.
Su Yang certainly wouldn’t let such a situation unfold. He stepped forward and said coldly, "Second Elder, I’ve arrived here, yet you still choose to act like a coward hiding in your shell. Doesn’t that seem a bit inappropriate? The dogs you summoned bark so wildly, and yet you hide in the back like a turtle. Could it be that you’re even worse than those dogs?"
As soon as these words were uttered, the crowd erupted instantly.
The mbers of the fifteen families were infuriated—Su Yang had insulted them as dogs. anwhile, the four sect mbers in the back were livid, as Su Yang’s remark clearly referred to them being cowards.
"Arrogant!" Ki Yongchuan was the first to shout angrily. With a flick, he folded his fan and was ready to strike, only to be imdiately stopped by the Second Elder next to him.
"Young Qi, don’t act impulsively!" The Second Elder lightly gestured toward the sky, hinting to Ki Yongchuan that the Law Enforcers were observing from above.
Ki Yongchuan could only suppress his anger and grumbled, "These heavenly laws and rules—it’s ti to change them!"
The other two nodded in agreent—they staunchly supported revising the rules of heaven and earth. The events that unfolded tonight further solidified this belief.
Second Elder nodded slowly and shot a cold glance at Su Yang, saying, "Su Yang, do you even know who these three are that you dare to speak so recklessly? You’re truly arrogant to the extre—do you really think that just because the Law Enforcers are here, we can’t do anything to you?"
"Why waste words? Are you here tonight to try and persuade with reason?" Su Yang sneered.
"Hmph, can one reason with soone like you?" Second Elder retorted.
"That line should be mine to say!" Su Yang responded coldly. "You people baselessly accuse of killing mbers of dicine Sect. Now you group up against . So, what? dicine Sect doesn’t care for justice, and neither does Soaring Cloud Hall, Heavenly Blade Peak, or Horizon’s End?"
The three individuals nearby were montarily stunned. Su Yang directly revealed their backgrounds, proving he knew exactly who they were.
"What impudence!" The Elder from Soaring Cloud Hall said sharply, "Knowing where we co from, you still dare to speak in this manner—do you realize this counts as blasphemy against the divine?"
"Are you a god?" Su Yang retorted.
"To the people of this world, we are gods!" The Elder from Soaring Cloud Hall said proudly, with the others nodding in agreent. In their eyes, as mbers of a Superlunary Sect, they were indeed revered as divine beings to ordinary people.
"Pah!" Su Yang spat directly. "What nonsense of gods! You take yourselves so seriously. Unable to distinguish right from wrong, yet claiming to be divine? I see you all as nothing but fools parading your ignorance!"
"Who are you calling that?" Ki Yongchuan roared in anger. If not for the fact that he was a Terrestrial Immortal, he would’ve already attempted to kill Su Yang multiple tis over.
"You brat, you’re courting death!" Ki Yongchuan’s face turned icy.
"Hah, courting death?" Su Yang sneered. "What, tonight’s gathering here—is it for to leave alive? All this posturing boils down to wanting dead, doesn’t it? Since I’ve already accepted death, what is there left to fear?"
Everyone was montarily speechless—Su Yang’s words left them without a retort.
Ki Yongchuan hadn’t expected Su Yang to be so fearless of death. He gritted his teeth and snarled, "Su Yang, just as Second Elder said, you truly deserve to die. But if you’re hellbent on dying, don’t drag others along with you. With all this commotion tonight, are you planning to get everyone around you killed too?"
"Spare the cheap attempts to sow discord. I’ve already said—you lot are too dim-witted, so stop playing tricks before . It’s laughable!" Su Yang fired back.
"You..." Ki Yongchuan was once again insulted by Su Yang, nearly losing his mind in fury. He angrily slamd the table in front of him and shouted, "Su Yang, what gives you the right to call dim-witted?"
Su Yang replied, "Didn’t I make myself clear earlier? Unable to discern black from white, nor right from wrong—isn’t lack of intelligence the only fitting explanation?"
"How am I blind to black and white, or unable to distinguish right and wrong?" Ki Yongchuan growled.
"Haha..." Su Yang sneered. "Then let ask you, why are you all here tonight?"
"What nonsense!" Ki Yongchuan barked. "Is there even a need to ask?"
"You were invited by the Second Elder of dicine Sect to co help them take revenge on , am I right?" Su Yang asked.
"What are you trying to say?" Ki Yongchuan shouted again.
"What I’m saying is—I have no enmity with any of you, so why seek revenge on ?" Su Yang asked.
"You killed so many mbers of dicine Sect, then used your influence in Capital City to provoke the Ten Great Sects. Our good ties with dicine Sect an we cannot stand idly by. What you’ve done—everyone would want you dead. Helping dicine Sect is nothing more than standing for justice!" Ki Yongchuan responded coldly. "There’s nothing wrong with that!"
"What exactly have I done that justifies everyone wanting dead?" Su Yang retorted.
Ki Yongchuan shouted, "What nonsense! You killed so many mbers of dicine Sect—isn’t that cri worthy of execution?"
"And how do you know it was who killed them?" Su Yang questioned again.
"At this stage, you’re still trying to deny it!" Ki Yongchuan fud.
"See? We’ve barely exchanged a few sentences, and you’re already flustered." Su Yang remarked helplessly. "What good does it do to lose your temper? You have no evidence to prove that I killed those people. In fact, even dicine Sect doesn’t have any proof that I am the culprit. You blindly listened to their claims and rushed here to attack . Now tell , isn’t that the very definition of failing to distinguish black from white or right from wrong? So, my insult—was it wrong?"
Ki Yongchuan and the other two were left dumbfounded—Su Yang’s argunt had genuinely thrown them off balance.
Indeed, they had only acted based on dicine Sect’s accusations that Su Yang had killed their people. They hadn’t even bothered to ascertain the truth.
Yet Su Yang had seized on this point, cornering them into silence. After all, if even dicine Sect couldn’t conclusively prove Su Yang was the killer, how could anyone else prove it?
