Chapter 175: Let Everyone Win With One’s Strength
Although Bai Haoyu had been infected by the black mist, he would have been fine after taking the filth removal pill. Ye Xuan could have seriously injured him instead of killing him. It was obvious that there was something fishy going on.
In addition to their previous quarrels with Ye Xuan, the people of the Misty Illusory Manor couldn’t help but think that Ye Xuan was just watching them die.
What they didn’t know was that Bai Haoyu had already fused deeply with the black mist. Under those circumstances, if Ye Xuan had had any backup plans, he would have been courting death.
However, this group of people would not look for the problem on themselves. After all, Ye Xuan and Shen Changling had already advised Bai Haoyu not to approach the underground palace.
There was nothing they could do if some people wanted to die.
“Sect Master He, don’t be too sad. After all, things have already become like this, and I believe that Ye Xuan didn’t do it on purpose.”
He Tianguang’s expression turned cold.
“He didn’t do it on purpose? I think he did it on purpose. So what if the black mist is a parasite? Aren’t the others also infected by the black mist? Why did he have to kill my disciple? He is simply despicable.”
“It’s just that there was a little dispute earlier. I didn’t expect him to be so insidious and despicable to use such an excuse. He’s simply a shameless villain.”
If Ye Xuan were here, he would definitely admire He Tianguang’s ability to distort the truth.
It was clearly the people of the Misty Illusory Manor who had made things difficult for him from the very beginning. In fact, Bai Haoyu had even tried to kill him in the secret realm. Now, he could only blame himself for everything.
“I guess you misunderstood. In such a dangerous situation, if Ye Xuan didn’t protect himself–”
Before the person could finish his words, He Tianguang interrupted impatiently, “So what if he was protecting himself? So, it is fine to kill people at will with the excuse of protecting oneself. The one who was killed wasn’t your disciple, so of course, you would say that.”
“You’re right,” He Tianguang said sarcastically. “I forgot that your disciple was following Ye Xuan and survived. No wonder you’re speaking up for Ye Xuan.”
The bystanders shook their heads and left when they saw He Tianguang’s stubbornness and heard his harsh words.
Under those circumstances, anyone with eyes could tell that Ye Xuan had not done anything wrong. Bai Haoyu had lost his mind, and one of them would have been killed.
He Tianguang subconsciously clenched his fists. “Ye Xuan, I won’t let you off.”
This time, the Misty Illusory Manor had suffered a great loss, and so many of their disciples had died. Even Bai Haoyu, whom they thought of the most highly, had died at Ye Xuan’s hands. He Tianguang was holding Ye Xuan responsible for all of this.
“Sect Master, what should we do next? If we’re going to deal with Ye Xuan, I’m afraid it won’t be an easy task.”
Now, Ye Xuan was not only the benefactor of all the major sects but also the other disciples of the Seven Great Sects, which could be said to be a great merit. If they wanted to touch him, those people would probably not agree.
“That stone might still be with him. Let’s not be in a hurry. One day, we’ll find a way to deal with him.”
He Tianguang was full of resentment, but he didn’t know that on the other side of the universe, there was also someone who hated Ye Xuan to the core.
A pair of eyes opened in the void. It was filled with supreme power, and also indescribable evilness and coldness. All the negative energy in the world was gathered here.
To this kind of existence, sky rank cultivators were like ants. Even if a star rank cultivator accidentally peeked at them, their body would explode and they would die. Almighty experts would go crazy if they looked at them a few more times.
This terrifying power was in the depths of chaos. It was a height that no one could imagine. Endless ravings came from it, and upon listening carefully, it was actually the words, “Ye Xuan”.
He Tianguang entered the secret realm. Now that the secret realm was open to outsiders, there was no level restriction. Even if it was the sect master or the elders on the stage, they did not have to worry about breaking the balance.
However, due to the previous commotion, the space inside the secret realm was extremely unstable. It might completely close in a few days.
He was here to collect Bai Haoyu’s corpse.
They arrived at the place where Bai Haoyu and Ye Xuan had fought. The place was almost scorched, and the ground was covered in cracks. There was a foul smell in the air, which indicated that a fierce battle had taken place there.
Whether it was for the stone or the murder of his disciple, He Tianguang would never let Ye Xuan go.
Moreover, the enmity between the two had long been formed. It was useless to curry favor with him now. They had to kill him before his wings grew. Otherwise, he would be a great disaster in the future.
“Haoyu, you can go in peace. I will avenge you.”
He Tianguang stood there for a while before turning to leave. He didn’t notice that there seemed to be a scent in the air that had entered his nose.
….
The curtain finally fell on Jingdu’s sect returning ceremony. Because of the secret realm, it could be said to have a strong start but a weak finish.
The people of the Seven Great Sects were still alright. other than the Misty Illusory Manor, half of the disciples had survived.
However, the small sects were in a worse state.
In short, in this competition, everyone except Ye Xuan was the loser.
Not a single person from the Tai Qing Sect was missing. He had also obtained a group of Penglai Immortal Beasts with high combat power and the ability to transform, as well as the treasures they had accumulated.
It could be said that he had earned a lot.
Ye Xuan casually took out a few treasures, and with his outstanding performance in saving everyone in the secret realm, he became the person with the greatest contribution and was undoubtedly the champion.
The first place was given to him, and everyone was convinced. Therefore, the sect that was hosting the sect returning ceremony this time was the Tai Qing Sect.
The result was beyond everyone’s expectations. In the beginning, everyone looked down on Tai Qing Sect. In such a small sect, all the disciples, including the elders, did not have high cultivation, but they became dark horses and broke out of the siege.
To be more precise, it was Ye Xuan who, with his own power, let the Tai Qing Sect win directly.
