Chapter 889: A Debt Must Be Paid by Money, A Life Must Be Paid With a Life!
When he sensed the unusualness in Chun Junzi’s tone, Ling Xuanzi secretly frowned, “Brother Chunjun, feel free to speak your mind!”
Chun Junzi smiled faintly and went straight to the point, “This humble one wants to ask Sect Master Ling for a person!”
“I wonder who you want?” Ling Xuanzi acknowledged.
At that moment, countless people looked at Chun Junzi. They obviously did not know what he was up to.
Chun Junzi took a deep breath in and looked at Ye Wushuang who was on the ground. He swept his horsetail whisk and said, “I want to ask Sect Master Ling for this kid!”
Boom…
As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly fell into the crowd like a heavy bomb, and it caused a terrifying uproar.
“What does Chun Junzi mean by this?”
“Could it be that he took a fancy to Ye Wushuang’s talent and wanted to protect him?”
“That’s possible. However, Ye Wushuang and the people of the Ninth Peak are treated as traitors. I’m afraid Chun Junzi’s action is inappropriate, right?”
“…”
In an instant, a wave of discussion erupted within the crowd, and every single word of it entered the ears of Ling Xuanzi and the rest.
At that moment, the expressions of Old Man Mysterious Sword, Elder Heaven Sword, and the rest changed. If Dao Sect really wanted to protect Ye Wushuang, things would become troublesome.
Ling Xuanzi’s gaze sank, and he seemed to be displeased, “Fellow Daoist Master, you intend to interfere with the internal affairs of my Sword Sect?”
“No, no!”
Chun Junzi shook his head and said, “Before that, I have to ask everyone a question!”
He scanned the crowd and paused for a few seconds before continuing, “Do you guys still remember the man wearing a conical hat who killed many supreme paragons of the Kunlun Ruins five days ago?”
Following his words, Gu Quan, Hua Ling, and the rest reacted at that moment. Their faces were pale, and their gazes towards Ye Wushuang were filled with guilt.
“Brother Chunjun, how could we not know about this?!”
One of the Spirit Talisman Sect’s leaders stood up and sneered, “This incident shook the entire Kunlun Mountains. Even the No. 1 true disciple of the Spirit Talisman Sect, Tuoba Long, was killed by him!”
“That’s right. There’s also the Devil Sect’s Sect Master Ying’s son. Pink Prince died at his hands!” One of the Devil Sect’s powerhouses smirked coldly.
In an instant, many people from the various forces present responded. When mentioning this matter, their faces were filled with killing intent.
“Brother Chunjun, this matter you spoke of has nothing to do with my Sword Sect, right?” Ling Xuanzi spoke in a noncommittal manner.
Among the ten high sects of Kunlun Ruins, only the people from Purple Cap Mountain and the Sword Sect did not die in Ye Chen’s hands. Therefore, the Sword Sect did not pay much attention to this matter.
“It’s naturally related to your Sword Sect!”
Chun Junzi smirked coldly, “In the end, all of us peerless geniuses of our sect died because of a sword, and this sword belongs to the Sword Sect’s Ninth Peak, Ye Wushuang!”
A wisp of grim flashed through his eyes, “On that day, this sword was purchased by that person who wore a conical hat. That person even used this sword to kill my Spirit Talisman Sect’s Tuoba Long, and then he vanished without a trace!”
At this point, he suddenly looked up at Ye Wushuang and focused on the long sword in his hand, “Everyone, take a look at this sword. Does it look familiar?”
Everyone followed his gaze.
The expressions of countless people, including the ten high sects’ leaders, changed.
“Didn’t the person in the conical hat win this sword? How did it end up in his hands?”
“Could it be that the thief wearing the conical hat was Ye Wushuang in disguise?”
“That’s possible. What a double trap, this brat is extremely cunning!”
“…”
At that moment, the entire world was filled with furious voices. The temperature of the entire First Peak suddenly dropped, as if it had cooled down by a few dozen degrees.
The expressions of Ling Xuanzi and the rest could not help but change when they heard that as they had never noticed this detail.
On the other hand, Chun Junzi of the Dao Sect gazed slowly at Ling Xuanzi with an indifferent expression, “Sect Master Ling, do you think this matter is related to your Sword Sect?”
Ling Xuanzi fell silent.
On the other hand, it was Old Man Mysterious Sword who explained, “Everyone, we had no idea about this. Moreover, Ye Wushuang is already a traitor now, so there’s no need to protect him.”
“Ye Wushuang, let me ask you, why did this sword appear in your hand?” The Devil Sect’s powerhouse looked straight at Ye Wushuang. His eerie gaze was like a ferocious beast that was about to devour someone.
“Is there a need to ask?”
The powerhouse sitting on the Ghoul Sect’s seat smirked coldly, his lips curling into an extremely bloodthirsty grin, “It must be this brat who disguised himself and killed the supreme paragons of our supreme sects!”
In the face of everyone’s interrogation, Ye Wushuang did not say a word. He lowered his head and looked at his sword, his eyes filled with confusion.
His silence was tacit agreement.
“A debt must be paid by money, a life must be paid with a life. This is the law of heaven and earth!”
The head of the Witchcraft Sect suddenly looked at Ling Xuanzi and shouted with a thunderous voice, “Sect Master Ling, you must hand this brat over to us today. Otherwise, your Sword Sect won’t be able to stand our rage!”
Ling Xuanzi was just about to speak when he was interrupted by a sudden voice, “This matter has nothing to do with Youngest Junior Brother. Don’t accuse him!”
Everyone looked over and saw Hua Ling struggling, “Those people were not killed by Youngest Junior Brother. Please don’t accuse him!”
“Then who do you think killed them?” Chun Junzi shouted.
Hua Ling hesitated for a moment before biting her lips and said, “After the First Peak auctioned off Youngest Junior Brother’s sword, Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother rushed over…”
She told him everything slowly, including how they were following Ye Chen. However, she hid the relationship between Ye Chen and Ye Wushuang.
The Devil Sect’s leader smirked coldly, “According to what you said, that person can kill supreme paragons. How could he not notice that you guys were following him?”
“If you don’t tell the truth, not only will Ye Wushuang die, even you will die!” Chun Junzi’s power was astonishing.
“Actually, we were discovered, but he did not kill us. He even told us…”
At this point, Hua Ling could no longer hide anything and could only say it in one breath, “He even told us that he’s Youngest Junior Brother’s brother, then he handed Youngest Junior Brother’s sword to us!”
Ye Wushuang’s still eyes finally changed a little when he heard that. He suddenly looked up at Hua Ling.
Could it be…
The leader of the Star Sect shouted, “What’s his name? Where is he now?”
“H-He’s Mad… Mad Southern Ye…” Hua Ling stammered.
Boom…
Ye Wushuang’s body trembled violently as he felt a wave of warmth wash over him like a flood.
‘Big brother!
‘It’s really big brother!’
As soon as Hua Ling finished speaking, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples. The crowd fell into an uproar.
“What? Mad Southern Ye is Ye Wushuang’s brother?”
“How is this possible?!”
Bang!
A series of ear-piercing cries rang out across the area like muffled thunder.
“Nonsense!”
The powerhouse of the Ghoul Sect let out a sinister laugh and said coldly, “I think I will use the Soul Searching Tactic on her and Ye Wushuang!”
After he said that, he grabbed Ye Wushuang and the rest in the air. A surge of vile energy burst out from his palm and charged at Ye Wushuang and the rest.
Just as the vile energy was about to reach Ye Wushuang and the rest, a spiritual energy vortex suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.
Accompanied by the appearance of that spiritual energy vortex, the vile energy that was heading straight for Ye Wushuang and the rest was instantly devoured by the spiritual energy vortex.
The spiritual energy vortex suddenly went maniacal. It was as if a strange force of heaven and earth descended from the sky and walked out of the void. It surged into the vortex and stirred the wind and clouds.
At this moment, the wind and clouds changed, and the sky changed color!
The Sword Sect’s sect master, Ling Xuanzi, had a change in expression. He suddenly stood up and shot his gaze towards the horizon.
At that location, a torrential murderous aura accompanied by terrifying lightning rolled over.
He was not the only one. Even the leaders of the ten high sects looked up into the sky.
The origin energy in their bodies began to tremble as an indescribable pressure descended from the starry sky.
The tens of thousands of people present immediately felt the pressure. Those with weaker cultivation base vomited blood on the spot and fell to the ground, their faces filled with shock.
Boom…
Endless thunderclouds rushed over from the horizon. Like a surging ocean, thunderous roars sounded.
A thin figure bathed in the thunderclouds slowly appeared. He seemed to be carrying a child in his arms. His long hair fluttered in the wind.
While the tens of thousands of people were shocked, Ye Wushuang’s body could not help but tremble slightly.
His eyes, which were as calm as the surface of a lake, also rippled, “It’s big brother, it’s really big brother!”
