Chapter 856: Scapegoat
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as these words were said, an uproar broke out.
No one had expected that such a heaven-defying place like the Dragon Cleansing Pool, which was something that had been pa.s.sed down since ancient times, would actually be destroyed by someone!
The key point was who had the ability to do so? Furthermore, this person had murdered so many geniuses in cold blood!
Was this person not afraid of revenge?
The Ling Axe Sect, the Cloud Ocean Sect, and the Dao Sect were not small sects! The elders of the three sects also erupted with extremely powerful killing intent and anger!
The three of them took a step forward and said coldly, “Please enlighten us, Mr. Jingshui!”
Mr. Jingshui did not waste any time. He stretched out his hand and suddenly pointed at Duan Huai An and the others from the Medical G.o.d sect.
Then, his indifferent voice rang out.
Ye Chen, a disciple of the Medical G.o.d sect, has violated the rules and acted recklessly! In order to take revenge on others, he forcefully destroyed the ancient relic, the Dragon Cleansing Pool, and even used some methods to kill the other geniuses!”
Duan Huai An, let me ask you. Since Ye Chen is dead, shouldn’t the Medical G.o.d sect take responsibility?”
As the cold words continued to echo, the atmosphere changed, and everyone fell silent.
Then, after a few seconds, chaos erupted.
The three elders who had lost their beloved disciples instantly drew their weapons and charged toward the Medical G.o.d sect.
The other cultivators also surrounded Duan Huai An and the others.
Ye Chen’s actions had thoroughly infuriated all of the people present!
Killing other geniuses and ignoring the rules!
Destroying the Dragon Cleansing Pool!
No matter which crime it was, it was worthy of death!
Someone had to pay!
Seeing that the three of them were about to attack Duan Huai An, Ji Siqing’s toes tapped the ground lightly, and she immediately appeared between the members of the Medical G.o.d sect and the angry crowd.
Ji Siqing, what are you doing! Ye Chen is already dead. Do you still want to protect the Medical G.o.d sect? Aren’ t you being a little too nosy!” “Don’t think that just because others give in to you that I will do the same!” The elder of the Ling Axe sect held his huge axe aloft and released his killing intent.
The disciple he had nurtured for almost twenty years had died just like that!
How could he not be furious?
Ji Siqing pointed her sword at the crowd and said coldly, “Ridiculous! Mr. Jingshui, do you really mean what you just said? Why would Ye Chen kill the Ling Axe sect’s disciple? What good would it do him?”
“Also, I and the others were also up there. We witnessed the entire thing. Your disciples simply couldn’t withstand the power of the Dragon Cleansing Pool!” “That’s right!” Wei Ying also stood up. “If Ye Chen really did it, how could we have returned unharmed? Don’t you have brains?”
“You!”
Three pairs of eyes looked at Mr. Jingshui.
“Mr. Jingshui, what is the truth?”
Mr. Jingshui stroked his beard and sneered, “Ji Siqing and the others were immersed in their cultivation. Those who are involved are confused, and naturally are confused about some things. However, I could see everything clearly from where I was!”
Ji Siqing, let me ask you. Was it the power of lightning that killed those geniuses? And does Ye Chen not also cultivate lightning-attribute techniques?” “Also, there was no one else in the Dragon Cleansing Pool except for that kid. The rest of you were breaking through, so you naturally couldn’t attack under my nose! Who else could it be but Ye Chen?!”
In the end, the path that kid walks on is the path of slaughter. His killing intent and bloodthirstiness is too strong. Furthermore, he is cold and heartless, so killing a few geniuses is nothing to him!”
Ji Siqing was speechless.
After all, Ye Chen had never shown himself in the Dragon Cleansing Pool and the power that killed the others came from within the Dragon Cleansing Pool. If one were to speculate Ye Chen was indeed the most likely culprit.
Just as Ji Siqing was about to say something, the three elders rushed over. Their weapons were brandished, and their killing intent erupted once more.
Hmph! A casual sentence from others can incite you so easily. Today, I will protect the Medical G.o.d sect. What about it?”
At this moment, Duan Huai An stepped forward and said to Ji Siqing, “Miss Ji, this matter has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to do anything. I only hope that you can help me take care of my disciples. They have been focused on studying alchemy and medicine all their lives, and their martial arts strength is inferior to others.”
After saying that, Duan Huai An drew his sword and charged at the three people.
The members of the Medical G.o.d sect are upright and honest. If it really was my disciple who did it, then I am willing to bear the responsibility! However, no one can touch the Medical G.o.d sect!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Huai An’s body released a violent aura. As he stepped forward, his aura continued to rise, and he unsheathed his sword.
His sword intent seemed to transform into a ferocious beast, which instantly charged toward the elder of the Ling Axe sect!
Ding!
The collision between the two forces forced the Ling Axe sect’s elder retreat a few steps, while Duan Huai An remained motionless.
From this, one could see the difference in their strength.
However, Duan Huai An now had to face three people. The elders of the Dao Sect and the Cloud Ocean Sect attacked as well, coming at him from two different directions!
Duan Huai An could only grit his teeth and fight it out. He was powerful enough to overwhelm one elder, and hold his own against two elders, but against three, he was immediately forced into a disadvantageous situation.
Bang!
Duan Huai An was instantly pushed back more than ten steps, and his clothes were in tatters.
He had yet to stabilize his body when the elder of the Ling Axe sect leapt into the sky and unleashed a mighty blow from above!
Duan Huai An blocked the attack with his sword, but the force of the impact hit him violently, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.
The Ling Axe Sect elder sneered.
“Duan Huai An, your ticking disciple is really good! If he didn’t die, he would have sooner or later gone down the demonic path and caused the Kunlun Mountains to be plunged into misery! Since you like your disciple so much, I’ll personally send you on your way and allow you and your disciple to reunite in the netherworld!”
Three powerful auras swept out as the three elders charged at Duan Huai An.
Ji Siqing and Wei Ying’s expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly rushed out while brandis.h.i.+ng their weapons.
However, before Ji Siqing could even take a few steps, an old woman blocked her way.
It was Elder Ke!
“Elder Ke, please move aside!” Ji Siqing looked angry.
Elder Ke shook her head. “Siqing, you’re still young. You have excellent talent, so you shouldn’t get involved in this kind of thing. You’re not the same as the ’ people of the Medical G.o.d sect. Since Ye Chen has died in the Dragon Cleansing Pool, it s time for you to let go of your obsession.”
