Chapter 1221: Resolving the Trouble

Next, they began discussing how to frame Yun Mengyi.

However, just as Yun Mengxiong was getting excited, his blue pupils suddenly saw two shadows lunging at the two elders.

"Be careful!"

Yun Mengxiong shouted in time, but that elder, who was listening to his speech, had no time to react.

By the time they saw Yun Mengxiong's shocked expression and felt the danger, it was already too late.

The two elders—one was frozen into an ice sculpture, the other had his origin core dug out—both died in a single strike.

Immediately, Little Blue Ice and Black Tortoise both attacked Yun Mengxiong.

Ye Liuyun had already decided to kill Yun Mengxiong, so he never thought of giving him a chance to live.

"Don't kill me, I am……"

Before Yun Mengxiong could finish his words, he was already frozen into an ice sculpture. Afterwards, the ice sculpture was shattered by Black Tortoise, and his origin core was picked up by Little Blue Ice.

Faced with two experts of the Tianzun Realm, Yun Mengxiong had no power to fight back.

They two still wanted to take the storage rings, but Ye Liuyun stopped them.

"Don't touch their storage rings; throw their corpses there as well!" Ye Liuyun directly called back Little Blue Ice and Black Tortoise.

After storing them in the Space World, he donned the Invisibility Cloak and returned to the vicinity of the Yun Clan.

Yun Mengxiong intended to frame Yun Mengyi for colluding with outsiders.

So Ye Liuyun repaid in kind, leaving those corpses and evidence, making the Yun Clan suspect the father and son.

From Yun Mengxiong's words, he felt that Yun Mengxiong's father was no good either, so he decided to trap them if he could.

Not long after, an elder of the Yun Clan came out. Ye Liuyun observed his direction and guessed he was going to look for Yun Mengxiong.

Ye Liuyun's guess was correct; Yun Mengxiong's actions were all supported by his father, Yun Tianran.

He himself could not ascend to the position of clan chief, but if his son could become the heir, it would be no different from him being clan chief.

So he has always had his son Yun Mengxiong target Yun Mengyi.

Seeing that his son had not returned for so long, Yun Tianran contacted him via a transmission talisman, but got no reply, so he immediately sent people to search.

Soon, he received the tragic news that Yun Mengxiong had actually been killed.

Thus, he immediately led people out of the Yun Clan and rushed to the scene.

Yun Mengxiong was his only hope; besides Yun Mengyi, the Yun Clan had no other male with the blue-pupil bloodline.

Even until he saw Yun Mengxiong's corpse, he still didn't quite believe his son would be killed.

He had actually dispatched two Tianzun Realm experts to protect Yun Mengxiong.

Yun Tianran's summoning of personnel also stirred the entire Yun Clan; immediately an elder came over, inquired about the situation, and then went together to investigate.

When they arrived at the scene, they saw Yun Mengxiong already turned into scattered corpses, littering the ground, causing Yun Tianran to faint on the spot from anger.

Yun Tianran's close aides immediately busied themselves rescuing him.

The other elders of the Yun Clan also shook their heads in regret.

Immediately, they began searching the scene and also discovered that the storage rings of Yun Mengxiong and that elder contained magic crystals.

This matter was of great importance; they dared not conceal it, and immediately reported it truthfully to the clan chief.

Yun Tianran had just recovered from his grief when he heard that Yun Mengxiong's storage ring contained magic crystals.

This left him dumbfounded. He had originally intended to frame Yun Mengyi, but now it had turned into trouble for himself.

"Impossible! How could my son be involved with demon cultivators? He must have been framed!" Yun Tianran immediately protested.

"Whether he was framed or not, we won't decide just by our words. Elder Tianran, please come with us back to investigate thoroughly. If Mengxiong was truly framed, we won't wrong him."

The Yun Clan had an elder, following the clan chief's orders, to escort Yun Tianran back.

Yun Tianran also knew he definitely couldn't avoid responsibility, so he could only return to explain. Thus the elders arranged for people to collect the corpses, and together they returned to the Yun Clan to report to the clan chief.

Ye Liuyun, however, was secretly laughing from afar: "Still wanting to frame others! In the end, you lifted a rock only to drop it on your own foot!"

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun also thought that the Yun Clan might realize there was still danger outside, and would link the two matters together.

So he also did not inform Yun Mengyi of any other actions, merely letting her rest in peace, waiting for his notice.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun then stayed away from the Yun Clan, lest they launch a search.

Ye Liyun's guess was correct; Yun Tianran indeed turned around and bit Yun Mengyi. Thus the clan chief again sought Yun Mengyi for questioning.

Fortunately, Ye Liuyun had not previously told Yun Mengyi, so when she heard that Yun Mengxiong had been killed, she appeared very surprised, and thus did not slip up.

Moreover, when she heard that an elder's origin core had been snatched directly by a ferocious beast, she also thought of Ye Liuyun.

However, by then everyone had already believed her, and nobody's attention was on her anymore.

Yun Tianran truly believed that Yun Mengxiong's death was arranged by Yun Mengyi or someone behind her.

But he now had no evidence. Moreover, looking at Yun Mengyi's appearance, she seemed genuinely unaware.

He somewhat understood Yun Mengyi's character; the well-known innocent simpleton did not look like she was lying.

This time, he also couldn't guess who did it, so he could only blame it on external demon cultivators.

Recently, the Yun Clan had two key disciples—one kidnapped, one killed—so this time they also attached importance, sending people to carefully search the surroundings of the Yun Clan for traces of suspicious individuals.

However, after searching for several days, there was still no information, so they could only give up.

Finally, Yun Tianran again guided the Yun Clan's direction of inquiry, found the brother of that elder, the elder guarding the prison, questioned him about the origin of the magic crystals, and then the matter came to nothing.

Although Ye Liuyun ultimately did not trap Yun Tianran, he cleared the obstacles for Yun Mengyi.

Now the Yun Clan mainly focuses on preventing outsiders from breaking in; internal guard against demon cultivators is not particularly tense.

Yun Mengyi also acted according to Ye Liuyun's request. First she went to play near the prison, then she found an excuse to go inside and have a look.

"There are twenty-five demon cultivators in total. However, they have all been tortured, beaten terribly, and some have already been crippled!" Yun Mengyi anxiously told Ye Liuyun.

When she saw those demon cultivators subjected to torture, she was also frightened quite a bit.

In her eyes, the Yun Clan has always presented itself as the image of modest gentlemen.

After seeing that scene in the prison, the shock to her was also great. She never imagined that the Yun Clan also had a demonic side.

Moreover, the cruelty of that torture made her unable to tell who was a demon cultivator and who was a gentleman!

So her emotions are also very unstable now.
