Chapter 1659: Chapter 1656: Coming to Accuse!
Upon hearing the arrangent from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect’s town-defense elder, Lin Anyang walked toward Lin Bai and softly said, “Junior Brother Dongfang, let’s leave first. The sect elders will handle this matter.”
“Leave?” Lin Bai was taken aback.
Lin Anyang replied indifferently, “Junior Brother Dongfang, have you not seen? The elders of all Seven Major Sects have likely received the news by now. If we continue to stay here, the events of the Stars Secret Realm will soon spread across the Lingnan Continent.”
“If Junior Brother Dongfang chooses to remain here, you will undoubtedly beco their target. So it is better to leave with for now; the sect elders will naturally take care of the situation here.”
Lin Bai suddenly realized and looked at the seven Heaven-reaching Sword Sect elders, respectfully clasping his hands in salute.
Resigned, Lin Bai nodded.
Imdiately, Lin Bai prepared to leave the plaza with Lin Anyang and return to East City.
Just as Lin Bai was about to move, a cold voice rang out, “Dongfang Bai! Halt!”
Lin Bai and Lin Anyang froze slightly, turning back to see an enraged white-haired elder from the Fenxin Sect glaring at Lin Bai and roaring furiously!
This elder from the Fenxin Sect, whom Lin Bai recognized, was nad Duan Hongyu—a Fifth Level Yangshen Realm powerhouse who held a high position in the Fenxin Sect. During his tenure in defending Starry Sky City, almost all town-defense elders of the Fenxin Sect followed his lead!
The Heaven-reaching Sword Sect’s town-defense elder imdiately stepped forward and said coldly, “Elder Duan Hongyu, what is your intention?”
Duan Hongyu, leading the Fenxin Sect disciples, advanced toward the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, with the two Peerless Sects showing signs of deadly confrontation. Duan Hongyu coldly spoke as he approached, “Dongfang Bai, did you kill the Saint of my Fenxin Sect, Yang Changdong?”
Upon hearing this question, Lin Bai’s expression remained neutral, and he calmly nodded, “Yes.”
Duan Hongyu’s face twisted with rage, and he asked again, “Did you also kill forty-two Yangshen Realm powerhouses of my Fenxin Sect?”
Lin Bai nodded, “Yes.”
“Good, good, good! Dongfang Bai, you will pay with blood for what you have done!” Elder Duan Hongyu of the Fenxin Sect roared in fury, releasing an overwhelming surge of Fifth Level Yangshen Realm cultivation power, which shook the air.
Nurous weaker warriors present wore pale expressions and involuntarily retreated!
Lin Bai looked at Duan Hongyu, his deanor unwavering. Despite the power unleashed by this man, it was insufficient to injure Lin Bai!
However, at this mont, another Fifth Level Yangshen Realm power emanated from the Luotian Sect’s ranks. An old man in black robes stepped forward, glaring at Lin Bai and shouting angrily, “Dongfang Bai, did you kill my sect’s Saint Yan Tuo as well?”
Lin Bai glanced at the elder of Luotian Sect, his expression indifferent as he replied coldly, “Yes.”
Upon hearing Lin Bai’s reply, the town-defense elders of the Luotian Sect erupted in fury, their terrifying power reverberating across the plaza, bearing down on Lin Bai.
Simultaneously, a fearso blade’s force shattered the void as it swept toward them.
“Dongfang Bai, did you kill the Saint of my Heavenly Sword Sect, Yu Liang?” One of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s town-defense elders asked.
Lin Bai answered straightforwardly, “Yes.”
“Dongfang Bai, did you kill my Saint Seal Sect’s Yangshen Realm elders…”
“Dongfang Bai, did you kill my Fenxin Sect’s Yangshen Realm elders…”
“Dongfang Bai, did you kill my Heavenly Sword Sect’s Yangshen Realm elders…”
“…”
The town-defense elders of all Seven Major Sects pressed Lin Bai with questions one after another.
First, they asked whether the Saints of their sects died by Lin Bai’s hands.
Then, they asked about the deaths of their Yangshen Realm elders!
Lin Bai’s response remained the sa—just one word: “Yes!”
All of them were killed by !
“Dongfang Bai, you’ve slaughtered so many of my sect’s powerhouses and even killed the Saint of my Fenxin Sect. You are truly audacious. If we don’t give you a severe punishnt today, how can our Fenxin Sect establish itself on the Lingnan Continent?”
Elder Duan Hongyu of the Fenxin Sect roared, releasing a wave of fierce flas that swept through the area.
“Duan Hongyu, what are you intending to do?” At this mont, the seven town-defense elders of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect moved as one, shielding Lin Bai behind them while casting cold stares at the elders of the other sects.
Saint Seal Sect’s town-defense elder sneered, “Your Heaven-reaching Sword Sect still wants to shield him? This man first incited his disciples in Starry Sky City to kill so many of our Seven Major Sects’ disciples through despicable ans and then slaughtered dozens of our Yangshen Realm elders!”
“Shouldn’t he face punishnt?”
Saint Seal Sect’s town-defense elder spoke coldly.
At this mont, Lin Bai’s gaze turned icy. He swept his eyes over the Saint Seal Sect elder and said coldly, “If you hadn’t brought this up, I might have let it slip my mind. Nie Xiong, summon ng Chunrui to clarify!”
“The ti to wash away injustice has arrived.”
Lin Bai spoke coldly.
Nie Xiong nodded sternly and directly tossed a terrified young man onto the plaza. This young man was ng Chunrui.
Nie Xiong coldly said, “ng Chunrui, speak!”
ng Chunrui looked around, seeing fifty thousand pairs of eyes fixed on him. His heart gripped with imnse fear, he quickly stamred, “It wasn’t —it wasn’t ! It was Qi Xuan who did it.”
“I only helped Senior Brother Qi Xuan locate the residences of the Seven Major Sects’ disciples who were to duel the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of Xian Dong Mountain. Qi Xuan went there at night to kill them—it wasn’t .”
“Please, elders of the Seven Major Sects, have rcy. Don’t kill , don’t kill …”
While speaking, ng Chunrui fell to his knees, crying and begging!
Upon hearing ng Chunrui’s words, the elders of the Seven Major Sects all looked grim.
Lin Bai raised his voice and said, “Elders of the Seven Major Sects, you heard him. This matter was orchestrated by Qi Xuan, who frad us!”
“And as for , Dongfang Bai—I may not be a righteous gentleman, but neither am I a despicable villain. I have no interest in such obscene acts.”
“Just like earlier, when the elders of the Seven Major Sects asked whether I killed their sects’ Saints and Yangshen Realm elders, my answer was simple: I did.”
“I, Dongfang Bai, already have blood-stained hands and have no fear of taking more lives!”
“This matter should serve as my account to the Seven Major Sects from the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of Xian Dong Mountain.”
“The true instigator of the incident, Qi Xuan, has already been killed by . As for ng Chunrui…”
“Though ng Chunrui is an Inner Disciple of my Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, our sect bears responsibility for his actions. When we return to the sect, I will personally request the elders to handle him!”
Lin Bai spoke coldly.
Elder Duan Hongyu of the Fenxin Sect retorted coldly, “Very good, very good, Dongfang Bai. Even if the deaths of Seven Major Sects’ disciples in Starry Sky City were Qi Xuan and ng Chunrui’s sche ant to implicate you.”
“Still, in the Stars Secret Realm, you killed so many Saint-level warriors and Yangshen Realm powerhouses. Are you aware of your cris?”
Lin Bai looked at the Fenxin Sect elder and countered, “Cris? What cris have I committed?”
