Chapter 492: Chapter 489: Investigation_1
He Shangfeng knew very well that being reasonable was essential. Even their Canghai Sect could not be unreasonable. Otherwise, sooner or later, the Yuanshan Sect and the Beishan Main City would join forces to deal with the unreasoning party.
That’s why Yuanshan Sect, although they stood their ground under the pressure of Canghai Sect just now, didn’t have enough confidence.
If he really just left, he would definitely be in the wrong, but if he backed down, wouldn’t others say that their Canghai Sect feared Yuanshan Sect?
Thinking of this, He Shangfeng said in a calm voice: “If your Yuanshan Sect wants justice, I will give it to you afterward!”
With that, He Shangfeng waved his hand and led the Canghai Sect disciples away.
Seeing the Canghai Sect people leaving, Mù Báishēng didn’t really try to press them. Although he knew very well that He Shangfeng would not give them justice afterward, at least they had the upper hand now. The previous relationship between the two forces had been in a very delicate state of tension.
Mù Báishēng didn’t intend to do anything more about this, but He Shangfeng wasn’t so easy to let it go.
The reason he wanted to let it go was not because of the Yuanshan Sect, but because of Han Fang.
Yes, it was Han Fang!
If it wasn’t for Han Fang, how could He Shangfeng have suffered such a great humiliation? How could he have been laughed at by others in the Yuanshan Sect and watched as a joke by the many forces nearby?
What would people say?
He Shangfeng went to hold the Yuanshan Sect accountable in a fierce manner, but what happened? He got a nose full of dust and came back. In fact, their Canghai Sect was still in the wrong.
What a big joke.
In the end, who was responsible for all of this? It was because of Han Fang, because Han Fang simply wanted to take revenge on Yang Chen. He twisted the facts and, without considering all aspects carefully, urged He Shangfeng to hold the Yuanshan Sect accountable in a fit of anger.
It was no joke if he had known the ins and outs of the situation from the beginning, he would not have gone to confront Yang Chen so lightly.
Admittedly, Yang Chen was still bothering him. He always felt that one day in the future, Yang Chen would be a trouble for him. This was a very weak intuition, which was why he had always disliked Yang Chen.
And that was the reason he was eager to confront Yang Chen as soon as Han Fang spoke up.
But in the end, it was Han Fang who distorted the facts.
This made him furious, and his eyes turned directly to Han Fang.
Han Fang was not too stupid. When he saw his Sect Leader staring at him like that, he finally knelt down in fear and cried for mercy: “Master, Master, I know I was wrong. My initial intention was purely impulsive. I… I just couldn’t stand Yang Chen’s disregard for our Canghai Sect.”
Han Fang’s plea for mercy was heart-wrenching and hoarse, making it difficult for anyone watching to continue punishing him.
But was He Shangfeng a soft-hearted person?
Of course not.
If he was soft-hearted, he wouldn’t have dealt with his senior brother He Yunxiao back then.
If he was soft-hearted, he wouldn’t have allied with the Fire Essence Beast.
“Sect Leader, Han Fang has admitted his mistake…”
“Yes, Sect Leader, after all, Han Fang is the Junior Sect Master of our sect. He’s realized his mistake. Let’s drop it.”
“Yes, Sect Leader.”
In an instant, many Elders came out to persuade him.
After all, Han Fang was young, and many Elders had watched him grow up. They had some affection for him.
However, He Shangfeng shouted angrily: “Spare him? Hmph, no way. Strip him of his Junior Sect Master position and demote him to an ordinary disciple!”
“Master, Master, don’t do that.” Han Fang’s heart sank, and the expression on his face showed complete despair.
Han Fang’s heart sank, and he was truly in despair.
Without his position as Junior Sect Master, he couldn’t even imagine how he would spend his days!
It was like falling from Heaven to hell!
But no matter how much he begged for mercy or wailed, He Shangfeng showed no mercy and just walked away without even looking at him.
In fact, He Shangfeng didn’t even plan to spare Han Fang’s life. But due to the persuasion of the Elders, he couldn’t help but save their face. He only stripped Han Fang of his position as Junior Sect Master.
Even so, it was a painful blow to Han Fang. He bitterly smiled and looked desolate. Thinking back on his past actions against Yang Chen, he suddenly laughed miserably. Gradually, regret rose in his heart. He knew that all this was caused by his initial unwillingness to accept defeat after losing to Yang Chen!
At the same time, Yang Chen was also surrounded by a group of Elders in the Yuanshan Sect, asking about his situation. They didn’t know about this until they heard Yang Chen talk about it. They just found out that the Canghai Sect had even tried to assassinate Yang Chen, which was absolutely intolerable.
Although Yang Chen wasn’t harmed, they still asked him about the situation, and it wasn’t until they understood that they let it go.
Just after this incident, another major event suddenly happened.
“Look over there.” Mù Báishēng was the first to notice, pointing to the front.
Yang Chen and the Yuanshan Sect Elder disciples looked in the direction that Mù Báishēng pointed. What Mù Báishēng pointed to was not somewhere else, but where the Luoyun Main City and Sun Star City were gathered.
However, at this moment, the two forces were quite cautious.
Because they were facing that mysterious giant.
Others might not know who this giant was, but Yang Chen knew very well.
It was the Black Dragon Sect.
“What is the Black Dragon Sect doing? It seems to be interrogating Luoyun Main City and Sun Star City about something.” Yang Chen narrowed his eyes.
Obviously, no matter how Sun Star City and Luoyun Main City appeared in front of others, they were somewhat inferior when facing a superpower like the Black Dragon Sect. In the face of the Black Dragon Sect’s interrogation, they seemed submissive, without any intention of resisting.
“They are the Black Dragon Sect, one of the superpowers in the Outer Territory.” Mù Báishēng explained to his sect Elders and disciples, “I don’t know what the Black Dragon Sect is up to, but it seems like something has happened. We should just watch quietly.”
Although the Black Dragon Sect was investigating Luoyun Main City and Sun Star City very strictly, divine soul detection wasn’t a problem.
Curious, the various major forces naturally sent out divine souls to find out what the Black Dragon Sect, with its tremendous power, was aiming for.
Yang Chen was no exception.
However, as soon as he detected their intentions with his divine soul, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Because…
The Black Dragon Sect was investigating the cause of death of one of their disciples, Yu Feilong!
