Chapter 79: Confrontation at the Deacon Hall

The disciples were discussing how to deal with He Lu and the others as if no one else was there. Hearing the Divine Jianfeng disciples' words, He Lu and the others all looked terrified.

Was this really the leader of the righteous path in the Eastern Continent, the Dao Yi Sect disciples? How could they talk about killing and destroying evidence at every turn?

He Lu was blocked and couldn't speak, while the other Luoxia Sect disciples all hurriedly said.

"Wait a minute, this has nothing to do with us!"

"That's right, we just accompanied them to the Dao Yi Sect; we didn't do anything."

From the expressions of these Divine Jianfeng disciples, it didn't seem like they were joking at all. The Luoxia Sect disciples were also panicked.

However, at this moment, He Lu's Master, Yu Li, and the Third Elder of the main seat arrived in time. With their cultivation realms, they heard the Divine Jianfeng disciples' conversation from far away.

Yu Li's face was gloomy, while the Third Elder of the main seat's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but shout coldly.

"All of you, shut up!"

With the shout, the two descended from the sky. Looking at He Lu and the others, who were tied up and even had their mouths blocked, Yu Li snorted coldly and waved her hand, only then untying the ropes that bound them.

Seeing Yu Li arrive, the Luoxia Sect disciples felt like they had been granted amnesty and stood up one after another, standing behind Yu Li, as if only this could give them some sense of security.

"Elder, we..."

"Shut up!"

It was simply a total loss of face. Yu Li didn't want to listen to the disciples' explanation at all, only turning her gaze to He Lu.

Facing her Master's gaze, He Lu glared fiercely at Ye Changqing and said.

"Master, it's all Ye Changqing. He used some despicable means to bribe the Divine Jianfeng disciples to attack us."

Blaming everything on Ye Changqing, Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat's gaze fell on Ye Changqing. Facing the gaze of the two big shots, Ye Changqing said speechlessly.

"I say, if you want to frame someone, you have to use your brain. I'm just a chore disciple; what do I have to bribe so many Senior Brothers and Sisters? Let alone Senior Brother Xu Jie and Senior Sister Liu Shuang, those direct disciples."

"Is this something a small chore disciple like me could do?"

Ye Changqing was truly speechless; he hadn't done anything at all.

Hearing this, Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat didn't believe Ye Changqing could do this either. Yu Li glanced at the gloomy He Lu, who was still unrelenting.

"Ye Changqing, even now you still want to deny it?"

Not believing at all that this matter had nothing to do with Ye Changqing, Ye Changqing was too lazy to say anything more and just looked at He Lu with a caring expression for the mentally disabled.

Both sides held their own opinions, but just then, the deacons of the Law Enforcement Hall arrived with a group of disciples.

Afterward, Ye Changqing, He Lu, the Luoxia Sect disciples, and the dozen or so disciples pushed forward by Divine Jianfeng were all taken to the Law Enforcement Hall on the main peak.

This matter naturally had to be handled by the Law Enforcement Hall.

Inside the Law Enforcement Hall, the Second Elder of the main seat sat on the main seat, with Yu Li and the Third Elder of the main seat on both sides below. In the center of the hall were Ye Changqing, He Lu, and the others.

The Second Elder of the main seat roughly understood the process of the matter. From what He Lu and the others said, it was clearly the fault of the Divine Jianfeng disciples.

Looking at Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, and the other Divine Jianfeng disciples, the Second Elder of the main seat said in a deep voice.

"Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, is what the Luoxia Sect disciples said the truth? What explanation do you have?"

"Heh, what a load of nonsense."

Hearing this, Xu Jie sneered. As for Liu Shuang, she didn't intend to answer at all.

After speaking, without waiting for others to reply, Xu Jie looked at He Lu and the others and said loudly.

"This matter is entirely the Luoxia Sect disciples' own fault."

"Everyone knows that our Dao Yi Sect and the Luoxia Sect have a close relationship. Originally, our Divine Jianfeng was extremely friendly toward Luoxia Sect disciples. But who would have thought that these Luoxia Sect disciples were harboring evil intentions and actually wanted to secretly harm our Divine Jianfeng disciples?"

"You're talking nonsense! We didn't!"

"If you want to add a crime, you don't have to worry about not having an excuse."

Hearing Xu Jie's words, the Luoxia Sect disciples retorted one after another. In the Law Enforcement Hall, they seemed to have become tough again.

However, Xu Jie just glanced at them indifferently and continued to say to the Second Elder on the main seat.

"Whether it is or not, you know it yourselves. Justice is in the hearts of the people. I ask you: why did your Luoxia Sect come to our Dao Yi Sect this time?"

"Because of the marriage contract between Senior Sister He Lu and Ye Changqing."

"You want to break off the engagement, right?"

"Yes."

"Since that's the case, what else is there to explain? You all admitted it yourselves."

Once these words were spoken, the Luoxia Sect disciples were all stunned. What did they admit? What did they say?

Facing the confused Luoxia Sect disciples, Xu Jie sneered.

"The marriage contract between He Lu and Junior Brother Changqing was set by family elders when they were young."

"As the saying goes, marriage is a major event decided by the orders of parents. Now He Lu wants to unilaterally break off the engagement. Not to mention whether it's right or wrong, even if it is to be broken off, it should be done at the Ye family, not at our Dao Yi Sect."

"But you insisted on coming to the Dao Yi Sect and personally finding Junior Brother Changqing."

"Ask yourselves, what man can withstand the shame of having an engagement broken off? Are you trying to make Junior Brother Changqing unable to lift his head in the Dao Yi Sect in the future?"

"You did it deliberately, intending to destroy Junior Brother Changqing's Dao heart."

"Isn't this harming our Divine Jianfeng disciple?"

"Destroying someone's Dao heart is one thing, but you—yes, you! Just now, I clearly heard you say to the person next to you that once Junior Brother Changqing's Dao heart is destroyed, you would find an opportunity to kill him."

"Destroying the Dao heart isn't enough; you also want to kill to silence him? Your Luoxia Sect disciples are so ruthless. How can we, as fellow disciples, stand by and watch?"

The Luoxia Sect disciple pointed at by Xu Jie was now dull-faced. When did he ever say he wanted to kill Ye Changqing?

He was just following along to watch the fun, at most thinking of flattering He Lu, this newly promoted direct disciple.

But now, how did he suddenly become a murderer who wanted to harm a Dao Yi Sect disciple?

"I... I didn't..."

Coming to his senses, the disciple tried his best to defend himself, but Xu Jie didn't buy it at all. He turned to the Second Elder, bowed, and said righteously.

"Therefore, seeing my fellow disciple being harmed, as the Third Senior Brother of Divine Jianfeng, what is wrong with me stepping in to protect my junior brother?"

"These Luoxia Sect disciples are bold and have vicious minds. This disciple even suspects that they have already colluded with demons. Coming here this time was to secretly stir up the relationship between our Dao Yi Sect and the Luoxia Sect to achieve ulterior motives."

"Such human scum! This disciple requests the Second Elder to investigate strictly and first lock them in the Black Prison for strict interrogation."

"No! We are wronged!"

The more he spoke, the more outrageous it became, even wanting to lock them in the Black Prison. Hearing Xu Jie's words, the Luoxia Sect disciples knelt on the ground one after another, shouting that they were wronged. They were truly no demon spies, and they had never thought of harming Ye Changqing. ===== CHAPTER 80 =====
