Chapter 1098: Winds and Clouds Gather (4)

The golden sword waterfall surged like a great river flood, howling as it swept across the battlefield, precisely slashing across the front line where Heavenly Court and the Human Allied Army clashed.

Millions of soldiers were drowned in the golden sword light, and countless voices rose in a mixed shout of shock and anger.

The sword light pierced through their bodies, and then both Heavenly Court and Human Allied Army soldiers shockingly discovered they were unharmed, merely limp as if struck by thunder, numb and thrown back dozens of miles.

With a single sword's might, the Human Allied Army and Heavenly Court forces locked in battle were forcibly split apart by Wu Tie.

Even the esteemed experts Gongsun Yao and Ji Baijie, who were fiercely fighting, were forced apart by this sword.

Ji Baijie waved his iron rod, unleashing myriad cold rays to block Wu Tie's sword, but the sword's aura was grand, the boundless heavenly might crushing over them outright.

Ji Baijie felt like a tiny mantis desperately blocking a huge wheel; he exerted all his strength to stop the sword, yet the sword's force paralyzed him, and he was flung far away, weak and breathless.

"It's you!" Gongsun Yao and Ji Baijie exclaimed in unison.

On the battlefield, countless Human Allied Army soldiers and Heavenly Court personnel stared at Wu Tie with fierce, gleaming eyes.

Gongsun Yao's gaze swept over Jing Jiu beside Wu Tie, and he roared hoarsely, "Wu Tie, you're definitely colluding with demons!"

Wu Tie swung his left hand in a slap.

With a booming "Bang!", an invisible slap struck Gongsun Yao hard, shattering his helmet, breaking all his teeth, and spraying blood and saliva far away.

His body flew far off, and the saliva and blood in his mouth traced a blood-red rainbow in the air as he soared.

"Didn't your parents teach you how to speak like a human?" Wu Tie sneered at the blown-away Gongsun Yao, "I have a Crystal Clan person beside me, does that mean I'm colluding with demons? Then, since you have a bird between your legs, can I say you're constantly trying to insult every woman you see?"

Slapped into dizziness, Gongsun Yao struggled to his feet.

He shook his head hard, shaking off a few Gongsun clansmen trying to support him, and with a low growl, his shattered gums healed quickly as new teeth rapidly grew.

Two rows of snowy white teeth clashed, sending up countless sparks.

Gongsun Yao glared at Wu Tie like an enraged wolf, teeth clenched, "Nonsense, you are simply…… simply……"

"It's the same reasoning. I stand beside a Crystal Clan person, so I'm colluding with demons… then, since you carry tools of crime, you're always ready to commit it." Wu Tie looked seriously at Gongsun Yao: "If you want to prove your innocence, let me take away your crime tools, okay?"

Wu Tie's words… were mischievous to the extreme.

Ji Baijie was sent flying by Wu Tie's sword, his belly equally full of rage.

But after hearing Wu Tie and Gongsun Yao's exchange, Ji Baijie set aside his speculation about Wu Tie's current strength, clapped and laughed loudly: "Your words make sense, Martial King; I also think this Gongsun Yao is no good person… hehe, if we are to confiscate his crime tools, I'd gladly do it myself!"

Gongsun Yao's face turned green with anger at Wu Tie and Ji Baijie.

He quickly dropped the matter of Jing Jiu, pointing at Ji Baijie and shouting angrily: "Wu Tie, Ji Baijie has stormed the holy temples of all major tribes of my human people, looting countless treasures, sweeping across countless civilians, violently draining mountain veins and water veins without end……"

"This man is humanity's great enemy… are you really going to throw in your lot with him?"

Wu Tie raised his brows, glared, and swung his left hand again. With another booming "Bang!", Gongsun Yao was blasted once more, mouth full of blood, tracing an arc as he flew dozens of miles away.

"If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll keep beating you… your parents didn't raise you right, I'll discipline them for you!" Wu Tie glared fiercely at the blown-away Gongsun Yao and sneered: "You are truly suspect of colluding with demons; before you clear your name, you may not speak or move… otherwise I'll beat you!"

Gongsun Yao's body stiffened suddenly, his gaze toward Wu Tie turning extremely… sinister.

A gloomy-faced Elder of the Gongsun Clan strode up to Wu Tie: "Martial King Wu Tie, how dare you slander our Gongsun Clan's pride?"

"Pride? Pride? Heh… he really does have suspicion of colluding with extraterritorial demons." Wu Tie said coldly: "Besides that, the attack on Nüwa Island, the unclear deaths of the senior matriarchs, are also inseparable from him."

The Gongsun Clan Elder's face turned extremely grim.

Upon hearing Wu Tie's words, the high-ranking human officials each turned grimly cold.

The Heavenly Court's attendants all clamored, pointing at Gongsun Yao and the human high-ranking officials, hurling insults.

In the distance, the sea surface suddenly churned; Hidden Dragon Army commanders Jin Yunxiu, Zhao Xiaoxiao, Luo Chen and others led large troops up from below, rushing swiftly toward Wu Tie.

Far off, Luo Chen shouted sternly: "Your words, Martial King, are utterly reasonable… Nüwa Island invaded by demons without an insider is absolutely impossible."

"The senior matriarchs are immensely perceptive and powerful; to silently kill thirty-six duty-bound matriarchs without a hint of movement, there must have been someone nearby secretly striking them."

"Gongsun Yao, you truly have the greatest suspicion."

Luo Chen's accusations stirred a torrent within the Human Allied Army; countless soldiers shouted questions, and the massive formation instantly fell into chaos.

Several days have passed, and the news of the Nüwa Island attack has spread wildly among humanity.

All along, Nüwa Island has openly governed and led all of humanity; the Nüwa Clan and human people intermarried, and among the Human Allied Army present, who knows how many soldiers' maternal clans—or even their beloveds—are of Nüwa descent.

Nüwa Island was attacked, the senior matriarchs slain, and Gongsun Yao dumped this black pot onto Heavenly Court—indeed, Heavenly Court again engaged in plundering the populace, and they truly bear the greatest suspicion!

But Wu Tie and Luo Chen both accused Gongsun Yao of having the greatest suspicion?

Regardless of evidence, at this moment the Human Allied Army's morale fell into disarray.

Gongsun Yao, furious and anxious, hoarsely shouted: "What baseless charge—who believes it? I've slain countless demons… I wiped out the demon army that invaded Nüwa Island… how could I possibly collude with them?"

Wu Tie coldly said: "Isn't this perfect? First let them help you eliminate rivals, then you kill to silence… what a flawless method!"

Luo Chen also hoarsely shouted: "We obtained a confession from the demons that invaded Nüwa Island; they indeed had an insider who built a massive teleportation array……"

"The insider isn't me!" Gongsun Yao roared.

"Yet you dare to use the insider's teleportation array, leading human elites to counterattack the demons!" Wu Tie's voice echoed across the battlefield: "You must know the enemy's nest is empty, this journey carries no risk, you can easily achieve merit and return to the mortal realm, right?"

Countless Human Allied Army soldiers glanced at each other, their looks toward Gongsun Yao now carrying a hint of strange light.
