Chapter 2068: No One Available

Qing Yan at this moment approached Ye Liuyun, pretending to tell him the whole sequence of events.

Li Xingrou also confronted Murong Tian: "Murong Tian, don't think I didn't hear what you just said! What do you mean by saying I'm stealing a man behind you? What kind of person are you to me? Do I have to be behind you?"

Furthermore, you've framed my innocence; you must give me an explanation!

After hearing Qing Yan finish the explanation, Ye Liuyun said to Murong Tian: "According to your version, if I were in the room, it would be considered that I was caught in the act with you? Luckily I wasn't there, otherwise it would be hard to explain!"

Murong Tian, you inexplicably came here to wreck my house and even incited the guards to attack Sect disciples, which already violates Sect regulations!

Everyone together blamed Murong Tian, leaving him speechless.

Soon, the Sword Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall personally led men over and directly took Murong Tian away, placing him under detention.

The two guards were carried back to Murong Tian's residence.

Jin Qing Song ordered people to rebuild Ye Liuyun's house. Ye Liuyun then followed Jin Qing Song and refined alchemy in the Grand Hall of the Dan Hall, before a large crowd.

And shortly after those two guards were taken back to Murong Tian's residence, Chen Feng's figure silently appeared in the guards' room.

It was Ye Liuyun's clone, who had just been wearing the Invisibility Cloak, sneaking in together with the Dan Hall disciples who were carrying the two guards.

One of the guards who hadn't fainted was startled upon seeing him.

"Chen Feng? How did you get in?"

He was seriously injured and couldn't even sit up, so he could only shout loudly, hoping someone would notice.

Ye Liuyun also acted directly, stripping away his Defense Artifact and launching a Spiritual Soul Attack. After killing one, he killed the other, a fainted guard, and then vanished by donning the Invisibility Cloak.

A Servant outside the door heard the guard's shout, rushed in to investigate, and found the person already dead!

Startled, he immediately rushed to the Law Enforcement Hall to report to Murong Tian.

Murong Tian also promptly reported to the Law Enforcement Hall that Chen Feng had killed his guard, and the Hall immediately sent people to capture Ye Liuyun.

"Nonsense! This is definitely Murong Tian's scheme! I've been here refining alchemy the whole time, never left. All the Dan Hall disciples here can testify for me!" Ye Liuyun deliberately argued with the Law Enforcement Squad members.

But the squad members didn't care about that, they just took people away.

"Come, I'll go with you!" Jin Qing Song ran to the Law Enforcement Hall together with Ye Liuyun.

Upon arriving at the Law Enforcement Hall, the Sword Elder investigated and found that Chen Feng indeed never left the sight of the crowd.

When the Sword Elder summoned Murong Tian's Servant for questioning, it turned out he only heard the sound and didn't see anyone.

Thus the Sword Elder immediately ruled that Murong Tian had framed him.

Murong Tian objected: "Then how did my two guards die? They were only seriously injured, not enough to die outright, right?"

The Sword Elder replied: "Your two guards are not Sect disciples; the Law Enforcement Hall won't investigate the murderer for outsiders. That's your own matter.

We only speak of Chen Feng. The facts are obvious; countless Dan Hall members saw Chen Feng refining alchemy, how could that be false? A single statement your servant heard cannot convict Chen Feng!"

Murong Tian felt deeply helpless about this outcome.

The Sword Elder summoned all Dan Hall disciples, and everyone confirmed that Ye Liuyun had indeed been refining alchemy in the Grand Hall the whole time.

"But who killed those two guards? Their injuries weren't fatal instantly!" He even doubted in his mind whether the Servant had misheard.

But now his own affairs were unfinished, and he couldn't leave the Law Enforcement Hall. He could only instruct his subordinates not to move the bodies and wait for him to return for inspection.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun asked the Sword Elder how Murong Tian's crimes should be punished.

"The punishment can be light or severe. Since he didn't hurt anyone, it's basically compensation for losses. Trespassing the Dan Hall and allowing guards to attack Sect disciples isn't a big deal for the Holy Son; at most he'll be detained for a few days, and his Holy Son title cannot be revoked!" the Sword Elder replied.

"That's so light! Then let him pay compensation and keep him detained as many days as possible!"

Ye Liuyun could only let the Sword Elder keep him detained for as many days as possible. He then used those days to have Li Xingrou eliminate all of Murong Tian's close associates.

Even if Murong Tian were released, he would find that no one around him is usable.

【7】 Liu Xing and Jin Hui and others also returned to report to Ye Liuyun.

Liu Xing and Jin Hui and the others also returned to report to Ye Liuyun.

With the mission successfully completed, those noble families turned to cooperate with Jin Hui, leaving Murong Tian with nothing, and they were also very resentful of Murong Tian's behind‑the‑scenes maneuvers, cutting off his large funding sources.

The antidote pill that should have been given to Liu Xing was also promptly provided by Ye Liuyun.

After Liu Xing and the others returned, they discovered that the Profound Heaven Sect had already undergone a coup. Murong Tian now had no one by his side.

He investigated around, pieced together all the details, and although he didn't know how Ye Liuyun accomplished some things, it was clear they were all actions by Ye Liuyun against Murong Tian.

"Who on earth is this person with such great ability!" Liu Xing thought to himself, yet had no clue.

Regarding Ye Liuyun, he was even more devoted, daring not to harbor any ulterior motives.

Even Murong Tian was reduced by Ye Liuyun to a solitary figure, making him no longer a rival.

He also knew his own abilities well, realizing he could only survive by clinging to powerful strength.

What he now worries about is, after Murong Tian leaves the Law Enforcement Hall and looks for him, what should he do.

However, that worry turned out to be unnecessary.

Because Deputy Sect Master Lu Yi Elder, who handles external affairs for the Profound Heaven Sect, has returned.

He has long traveled among major powers, and this time also brought information from the Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance and the Eastern Kingdom, returning to the Sect to discuss with everyone.

The Sect Master also gathered all the Sect Elders, allowing everyone to voice their opinions.

Elder Lu Yi began: "This time I mainly bring news from the Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance and the Eastern Kingdom for us to discuss together.

First, regarding the Eastern Kingdom, they can no longer hold out. The Death Legion's massive army has already captured Blood Cloud City. Though they are regrouping, the attack on the Eastern Kingdom is only a matter of time.

They are willing to provide massive resources for us to support them, including Divine Crystals…

Lu Yi paused, then continued: "The Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance also wishes to provide resources for us to intervene. They heard that Holy Son Murong Tian has been detained by us—does such a thing exist?"

The Sword Elder immediately explained the situation.

Lu Yi smiled, paid no mind, and continued discussing major matters, expressing his own view.

"Both sides are willing to provide resources for us to support. But based on the information I've received, the Eastern Kingdom's defeat is inevitable.

If we throw all our strength into reinforcing the Eastern Kingdom, even sacrificing us old folk and disciples, we can only help the Eastern Kingdom hold out for another year or a year and a half. After that, we can only hope for a miracle."
