BXBX NOVEL Chapter 747 – A Sharp Turn for the Worst
Chapter 747 – A Sharp Turn for the Worst
“It’s precisely because we are in a critical moment that we should be more cautious.” The master of the Yue clan stood up and said, “It’s your business that you believe him. If we don’t believe him, we have our reasons. Yan Tianhen cultivates evil Qi: it is an indisputable fact. Since that’s the case, this King proposes to detain him for the time being until we find evidence that he did not collude with evil Qi cultivators, or when the evil spirits have been destroyed, and then release him, so that we can be rest assured.”
“King Yue has a point.” The Sect Master of the River Mountain Sect from the South Land also nodded. “We don’t know much about Prince Ye’s character and strength. If we let someone cultivate evil Qi nearby, we can’t tell what would happen. We might as well investigate the matter of the Dragon Tomb Holy Land first, make sure it has nothing to do with him, and then make other considerations.”
Next, several representatives of other sects and clans seconded the motion. They mentioned they also didn’t want to be associated with an evil Qi cultivator.
Therefore, the meeting of eliminating evil spirits was stalled and could no longer continue.
These people’s doubts about Yan Tianhen directly led to their doubts about the whole anti-evil spirit meeting. In the end, led by the Yue clan and Heavy Mountain Sect, some great families and clans left Myriad Dao Academy one after another, while some stayed to wait and see, and were temporarily arranged to live in the sect, waiting for some consideration.
When they arrived at Little Penglai, Yan Tianhen still looked very disheartened.
He hung his head and tilted the corners of his mouth downward, looking wronged and helpless. Lin Xuanzhi came forward and rubbed Yan Tianhen’s head.
“Don’t think so much.” Lin Xuanzhi said.
“If it weren’t for me, today’s anti-evil spirit conference would have certainly been able to go to the next step.” Yan Tianhen said remorsefully, “Those aristocratic families and sects didn’t even bother to listen to the method of killing evil spirits before they left. They must dislike me very much.”
Of course, it was impossible to just sign a contract for the anti-evil spirit conference. The most important step had not yet started. They originally thought of unifying everyone’s attitude first, and then collectively telling them the solution they came up with. However, they already met such a big obstacle at the first step, which made Yan Tianhen feel bad.
“Moreover, the vast majority were just watching.” Yan Tianhen’s face was filled with sadness. “I don’t know how long they’ll stay bystanders for.”
Lin Xuanzhi said, “It doesn’t matter. Dad and Master have already started lobbying privately. It won’t be long before more people come forward and choose to trust you.”
Yan Tianhen nodded. “I hope so.”
——Yan Tianhen was walking in the street. He wanted to exchange some spiritual herbs which could refine medicinal pills, but he met a group of aristocratic family disciples who were wandering around in Myriad Dao Academy. They were led by Wan Liyao.
The other young masters couldn’t help laughing. Wan Liyao’s face was indfiferent and he only looked at Yan Tianhen.
Yan Tianhen stopped and turned around at. “What did you just say?”
As soon as the folding fan in the young master’s hand was closed, he said, “I mean, I am really starting to think that some people of the aristocratic family are mentally ill. Who knows which corner of the demon world that dad of yours ran out from? How dare he defile the lineage of the Yan family? Let this Young Master tell you the truth. Don’t let your father’s people lobby our voodoo aristocratic family. Although we have always been subordinates of the Yan family, our Ying family will never acknowledge you people who are all full of thoughts about climbing the social ladder to get rich!”
The voodoo Ying family’s disciple was sent flying with a slap as soon as he finished.
Yan Tianhen came up to him, narrowed his eyes and said, “Ying family? Does your father know that you’re slandering King Ye’s consort in public?”
“You fucking dare to hit me!” The Ying family disciple blew up at once, and fought back Yan Tianhen with one palm. Yan Tianhen quickly retreated. When the Ying family disciples threw their hidden weapons at him, he had to pull out the Yin Flame Whip and knock away all their weapons.
The Ying family disciple was slapped in the face, and his eyes were red. He lunged for Yan Tianhen unexpectedly.
......
“The second meeting of the Anti-Evil Spirit Conference is scheduled for three days later. Let’s settle the matter as soon as possible. After all, time is running out.” Sword Saint Tianshu and several powerhouses of the sect walked together. “I heard from outside people that on the day when we gathered here, Heaven’s Wail began to appear in the sky over the Nine Lands. Although the speed of expansion wasn’t too fast, it was still enough for people to pay attention to it.”
“Yes, I also heard about this.” Another elder couldn’t help but frown. “But these people don’t want to trust us at all. Prince Ye doesn’t look like a bad person either, and he really has no reason to associate with the evil spirits.”
The East Sovereign said, “This Venerable has sent people to lobby privately, and more than half of the aristocratic families are willing to trust Prince Ye.”
“That’s good.” Sword Saint Tianshu nodded with great comfort.
Suddenly, a disciple came running in a hurry, looking panicked and saying, “S-Sect Master!”
Sword Saint Tianshu asked, “What’s the hurry? Speak clearly!”
The disciple pointed to the other side and said, “Go and have a look. Yan Tianhen got into a fight with a Ying family member!”
“What?” Sword Saint Tianshu immediately ran towards there. When he arrived at the scene, he found Yan Tianhen beating the aristocratic family disciples unilaterally.
Holding a Yin Flame Whip in his hand, he has knocked down several disciples who couldn’t get up.
“Ah Hen, stop it!” Sword Saint Tianshu shouted.
Yan Tianhen saw that the elders were coming, and he didn’t want to be entangled anymore, so he planned to withdraw the Yin Flame Whip.
“Want to run?” The Ying family disciple got up from the ground, made a hand seal, and shouted to several companions around him, “Get up and kill this bitch whose blood is dirty and defiles the blood of the royal family!”
Yan Tianhen rolled his eyes. “Stupid.”
As soon as his words fell, there was suddenly a purple evil Qi condensed into a sharp sword from behind the Ying family disciple where it would stab his heart.
“Be careful!” Yan Tianhen waved his whip towards the disciple. However, before the whip even touched his body, the sword condensed by evil Qi pierced the disciple from behind.
The Ying family disciple vomited a mouthful of blood with wide eyes, then fell to the ground. In an instant, he died. After losing their voices for a moment, the other disciples screamed sharply and ran around.
Sword Saint Tianshu was also shocked by the scene and immediately shouted, “Ah Hen, what are you doing?”
Yan Tianhen was stunned.
While he was in such a daze, several sharp swords with heavy evil Qi turned into whips, twisting the heads of several disciples who fled everywhere. Between the dead bodies was blood that flowed all over the whole open space, making the scene extremely bloody and appalling.
“Ahhh, he’s killing people! Help! Save me!” The disciples and onlookers scattered, and each one ran while screaming.
The several elders only arrived right then. When they came upon the scene, all their expressions changed.
“What happened?” Yaoguang Sword Saint asked with an ugly face.
Sword Saint Tianshu looked at Yan Tianhen with a livid face and shook his head. “First, tell these people’s families and let them claim the bodies.”
He then said to Yan Tianhen, “You, follow me.”
“He can’t go.” The sect’s judge came up. His face was dark and his voice was even colder. “If he really killed someone, he would be the culprit, which would have a great impact on this anti-evil spirit conference. I will never let people stir up trouble and commit evil deeds in Myriad Dao Academy!”
Yan Tianhen suddenly looked up and said sharply, “I didn’t do it!”
The judge replied, “It has not been decided that you did it, but after all, you are the party involved. I will put you on the list of suspects for the time being. Do you have any opinions?”
Yan Tianhen said, “No problem.”
What happened in Myriad Dao Academy soon spread throughout the whole sect, and almost everyone came here to watch in less than a cup of tea’s worth of time.
When Lin Xuanzhi arrived, he saw that Xuan Wushe, who had a cold expression on his handsome and peerless face, stood beside Yan Tianhen while several women or men were holding bodies on the ground, crying and shouting, “My son.”
They also cursed that Yan Tianhen should die a terrible death.
Lin Xuanzhi separated from the crowd, came to the front, and looked at the ground which had residual evil Qi. He raised his head and looked at Yan Tianhen who subconsciously shook his head and said, “It’s not me.”
Before Lin Xuanzhi could speak, the madam of the Ying family pointed at Yan Tianhen with red eyes, and hissed out, “Who else could it be? My son? How many people saw you kill him?! It was you! You are the half-devil who is not of my race, and an evil Qi cultivator! You killed my son, so I’m not finished with you!”
Everyone looked at Yan Tianhen with suspicious and fearful eyes.
“Ahhh my poor son! You really died a horrible death!” The mother of another person whose body was separated in two, screamed and wept bitterly. Her husband was also pale, and saw his son who had died in vain. Then he suddenly stood up, clenched his hands into fists and tried to attack Yan Tianhen.
“You want to rebel?” East Sovereign Xuan Wushe blocked his fist with anger when he raised his hand, narrowing his eyes. “The culprit has not been decided yet, so why bother?”
The man was crying and laughing. “Your Majesty, our East Land’s Qi family has always bowed to the Xuan clan. Although there is not much power and status, we still think we can sit up straight. You don’t have children, so you can’t understand. This person– this person is an evil Qi cultivator; he’s an evil Qi cultivator who kills people! If you still protect him like this, I would rather not be sheltered by the Xuan clan anymore and never serve the Xuan clan henceforth!”
Lin Xuanzhi stepped forward, blocked Yan Tianhen from everyone’s sight, and stared at the man. He told him slowly, “Didn’t you hear him say it wasn’t him?”
