Chapter 953: Soul Searching!

~8 min read 1,511 words

"Good!"

Wen Tiansheng nodded without showing any weakness.

His heart felt increasingly guilty.

He was going to be screwed over badly this time!

Wan Guiyuan, oh Wan Guiyuan~

You brat had better have obtained enough benefits in Wenxian City.

Otherwise~

I will definitely make you pay!

In the time that followed.

Figures emerged from time to time from the channel leading to the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Every time a figure emerged, the Palace Master of the Ancient God Palace would step forward to inquire.

Soon, after Xuan Che and Cao Tian, ten people had already emerged.

Although the answers of the ten people differed slightly from what Xuan Che had said, several key pieces of information were completely consistent with Xuan Che's account.

Wan Guiyuan had indeed infiltrated Wenxian City.

Every time the feinting team set out, it seemed as if Wenxian City had predicted it; they walked into ambushes and were wiped out entirely.

In the final battle.

Jiu You and the others had indeed joined forces with the cultivators of Wenxian City, causing the final strength of the Eight Continents' teams to completely collapse.

Besides that.

The answers of the ten people also included descriptions of the strength of Jiu You and Lu Xiu that Xuan Che had not mentioned.

When the group of big shots learned that Jiu You could defeat two Leader Stage cultivators one-on-one, and that Lu Xiu had unleashed hidden strength and could easily kill Leader Stage cultivators.

They all revealed expressions of shock.

Leader Stage cultivators, looking across the Eight Continents, were already Top-tier Prodigies.

These Great Vehicle Stage cultivators present, when they were in the Nascent Soul Stage, had at most the strength of the Leader Stage.

Lu Xiu, Jiu You.

These two were actually even more powerful than the Leader Stage!

If one were to add Wan Guiyuan...

Are the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect really this formidable?

Within a single sect, so many fierce people had actually appeared?

The Palace Master of the Ancient God Palace also revealed a look of shock on his face.

He knew very well how strong Yuwei was.

She was known as the strongest Nascent Soul Stage cultivator since the founding of the Ancient God Palace.

Even when he himself was in the Nascent Soul Stage, he was not as good as Yuwei.

That Lu Xiu was actually able to fight Yuwei without falling into a disadvantage.

The strength of this was evident.

Among everyone present, if one had to pick the most shocked person, it had to be Wen Tiansheng.

Although Jiu You's strength was exaggerated, he did not know Jiu You very well after all, and the other party had also been a Top-tier Prodigy of the Youyun Holy Land, so it was hard to say.

But he did know a little about Lu Xiu.

The talent was good, but it could not be considered top-tier among the Core Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.

How did they suddenly become so strong?

In the time that followed.

People continued to emerge from the Space Channel.

After the thirty-eighth person emerged from the Space Channel, no one else appeared from it.

It was not until a day later.

That spatial fluctuations rippled through the Space Channel once again.

A total of thirteen figures emerged from it.

It was Yaoguang, Yuan Xiuya, and other survivors from the Beast Taming Sect and the Sacred Palace.

"They are the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect and the Sacred Palace!"

Seeing Yaoguang and the others, those survivors who had previously returned from the Outer Realm Battlefield all revealed cold expressions.

"The traitors actually dare to return!"

Mu Kui sneered, a green light flashing in his eyes.

"Mu Kui, you dare!"

Wen Tiansheng's expression changed, and he waved his palm.

Bang~

An explosion rang out in the void.

The space twisted for a moment.

Although no power leaked out from that twisted space, the invisible fluctuations that emanated made the hearts of Yaoguang and the others jump.

This was a power they could not resist!

"Mu Kui, the matter has not been fully confirmed yet, and you actually dare to try to kill the disciples of my sect!"

Wen Tiansheng looked coldly at Mu Kui.

At the same time, a look of displeasure also appeared on the face of the Sacred Lord of the Sacred Palace.

"From the words of the previous thirty-eight Disciples, it is already certain that your Beast Taming Sect Disciples and Sacred Palace Disciples have rebelled," Mu Kui said coldly.

Wen Tiansheng shook his head, "Was what the Ancient God Palace Palace Master and I said earlier not clear enough? We both said to wait for everyone to come out before making a decision. Are you deaf, or do you just not understand human speech?"

"I am now even more suspicious that you are a hybrid of the Human Race and the Black Pig Whale Clan."

Mu Kui was furious, "You..."

"Enough, you two, stop arguing."

Just then, the Ancient God Palace Palace Master suddenly spoke, interrupting the two of them.

He looked at Mu Kui, "Since Daoist Friend Wen wants to wait a while longer, then let us wait. In any case, these people cannot escape."

Mu Kui's gaze flickered, and he nodded, "Since that is the case, I will give Palace Master Qi some face."

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongtian thought for a moment and said to Yaoguang, "Tell us about your experiences after entering the Outer Realm Battlefield."

"Hmph, why let these rebels speak? They will surely try every possible way to shirk their crimes," Mu Kui sneered.

Wen Tiansheng narrowed his eyes, "Daoist Friend Mu, that is incorrect. As of now, there is no final conclusion on whether my Beast Taming Sect and Sacred Palace Disciples have rebelled. On what grounds should they not be given a chance to defend themselves?"

"Enough."

Qi Tongtian waved his hand, "Since others had the opportunity to speak, they naturally have it too."

As he spoke, Qi Tongtian waved his palm.

He sealed the five senses of twelve of the thirteen people in front of the Space Channel, leaving only Yaoguang, "Speak, what did you all experience after entering the Outer Realm Battlefield?"

Upon hearing this, Yaoguang began to narrate.

What Yaoguang said was much the same as the accounts of those before her.

However, her narrative contained a few more details than what everyone else had said previously.

Such as how the Array Path prodigy Ye Lingyun from Wenxian City did not fall as they had initially expected...

Such as how there was a woman in a silver dress wearing a silver mask inside Wenxian City who seemed to possess the ability to anticipate the enemy's moves...

Such as how Wan Guiyuan, in order to reduce casualties, disregarded his own safety to enter Wenxian City, and after the plan failed, Cao Tian and the others disregarded Wan Guiyuan's life and insisted on attacking Wenxian City immediately, which triggered the disagreement.

And for instance, how the successive pursuits by Cao Tian and the others left them exhausted and suffering heavy losses, and they did not expect that Cao Tian and the others would still refuse to let them go, eventually leading them into an ambush by Wenxian City.

As for the place of recuperation they chose, it was entirely a coincidence, not collusion with Wenxian City.

Finally, she spoke of encountering Yuwei being besieged on the way back, and mentioned that Wan Guiyuan, Lu Xiu, and Jiuyou went to rescue her.

After Yaoguang finished her narration.

Qi Tongtian's expression had become somewhat heavy.

His attention was entirely focused on the last piece of information.

Yuwei had encountered a siege!

Wan Guiyuan, Lu Xiu, and Jiuyou went to rescue her?

Although this woman's account did not differ much from the previous people, in her description, the images of Wan Guiyuan, Lu Xiu, and Jiuyou were completely different.

Not only were they not rebels, but they had instead become people who wholeheartedly sacrificed themselves for the team.

In the end...

Who was telling the truth?

His gaze flickered for a moment.

A moment later.

He regained his composure and took a deep breath.

He waved his palm to seal Yaoguang's five senses and released the five senses of Yuan Xiuya, "Next, it is your turn to speak. What did you all experience in the Outer Realm Battlefield?"

Just like that, everyone narrated in turn.

Soon, all thirteen people had finished speaking.

"Sophistry. Before they left the Outer Realm Battlefield, they must have already prepared their story."

After the last person's voice fell, a voice suddenly drifted out faintly.

Hearing this voice, Wen Tiansheng glanced at Mu Kui, "I am very curious, Daoist Friend Mu, how did you determine that what the others said was the truth, and that my Beast Taming Sect and Sacred Palace Disciples are just using sophistry?"

Mu Kui's expression stalled, then he sneered, "Want to know the truth? It's very simple. Pick one from these thirteen and perform Soul Searching, that is all."
