Chapter 240 - The Complicated Selfless Sect
Chapter 240: The Complicated Selfless Sect
The eight leaders of the mysterious Sky Sword sect brought people to the high platform and stood behind the sect master, Zhuang Changhe, looking down at the many forces below the platform.
At this time, the private discussions below the platform also became open and aboveboard.
“Is this the mastermind behind the ambush of the six sect masters? However, what are the identities of these two people? How come I’ve never heard of them before!”
“TSK TSK TSK! Your news is really outdated!”
“It’s said that the two people on the stage are the lackeys of the demon race. Not only did they set up the ambush on the six sect masters who came to the mysterious Sky Sword sect to discuss important matters, they even instigated the six great sects to attack the mysterious Sky Sword sect. What a wolf’s ambition, their intentions are to be executed…”
“Ptui! Two lackeys of the demon race, dying a thousand times is not enough! What I hate the most is this kind of despicable people who betray their own people just for a small profit.”
“Damn it. We can’t let such villains who wreak havoc in the eastern wastelands off so easily.”
“…”
Naturally, the mysterious Sky Sword sect was prepared for the holding of the trial conference. At the beginning of the trial conference, Zhuang Changhe and the higher-ups had discussed the stakes involved.
The most important point was that after Su Xing and the others brought back Daoist Zuo and Daoist heartless, Zhuang Changhe had secretly sent people to spread the news through various channels.
The result was within his expectations.
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd. The news that Daoist heartless and Daoist Zuo were spies of the demon race quickly spread among the crowd and ferment.
For a moment, the crowd became excited.
There were all kinds of discussions in the crowd, but everyone agreed that these two deserved to die.
“Kill them, kill them…”
“Sect master Zhuang, what’s the point of keeping such a lackey who betrayed the face of the east barren? Why Don’t you let me test the Longsword in my hand today?”
“We can not live under the same sky as the Demons!”
Zhuang Changhe left enough time for everyone to discuss. When the atmosphere had reached a certain level, he waved his hand to signal for everyone to quiet down.
“Ahem! Everyone, please calm down!”
Zhuang Changhe looked at the red-faced Taoist xuanguang below the viewing platform and then turned to glance at Lei Laoliu, who was behind him, intentionally or unintentionally. He seemed to feel that Lei Laoliu had gone a little too far.
What kind of damage had he done?
Look, the new sect master of the Anwo sect was furious!
However, Lei Laoliu could not be blamed. The good show that Taoist Wuxin and Taoist zuo had put on by themselves had caused a lot of trouble for the mysterious Sky Sword sect. If it were not for the fact that they could not put on airs, Zhuang Changhe would have wanted to go over and give them a few kicks.
As for Daoist Xuantian’s reaction, or rather, everyone’s reaction, it was all within Zhuang Changhe’s expectations. Just wait and see. Their expressions would definitely be more interesting than now.
At this moment, the discussion in the hall gradually died down as Zhuang Changhe spoke.
“Everyone’s guess is right. These two are one of the masterminds behind the assassination of the six sect masters. Why do you say they are one of them?”
Zhuang Changhe paused for a moment as he said this. After which, he looked around with a dignified gaze.
“Because the six sect masters are first-rate existences in our eastern wastelands. How could these two little rascals deal with the six sect masters? Hence, the two of them colluded with the demon race and planned a shocking massacre against the sect masters.”
“It is precisely because of this, coupled with their special identities, that the six sect masters were accidentally killed by them.”
After saying this, the entire square was in an uproar.
Although most of the people had already heard some small news from other places, everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air when the truth was revealed in front of their eyes.
Apart from shock, there was also a kind of anger.
After experiencing the last time when the demon race caused a disaster in the eastern wastelands, everyone in the wastelands, from the cultivators to the ordinary people, hated the demon race.
Now that they thought back to the tragic situation, the scene that looked like hell on Earth was still vivid in their minds. To the ordinary people, it was like a nightmare.
In this war against the demon race, countless creatures of the eastern wastelands were killed or injured. Many cultivators and mortals were also abducted. It was still unknown whether they were alive or dead!
Now, there were actually two traitors of the eastern wastelands who colluded with the demon race. Everyone already hated the demon race to the core. At this moment, a raging flame of anger suddenly ignited in their hearts.
To put it bluntly, if someone had killed the six sect masters, other than the people from the six sects, the others would basically just be there for fun. It would be difficult for them to be sympathetic, but since it was related to the safety of the demon race and the eastern wastelands.., then this matter had become a matter for everyone present.
This matter had already evolved from an internal conflict into a cohesive force towards the outside world.
That was everyone’s hatred and resistance towards the demon race.
Old Man Yan suddenly slammed the table and stood up, his eyes filled with an unconcealable killing intent.
“Damn it, so it really was those two who did it. Return my martial nephew’s life.”
Other than the previous sect master of the Yan Yun sect, there were also many disciples and elders who had died at the hands of the demon race. It was no wonder that old man Yan was so angry.
“…”
There was an uproar. More or less all the disciples of the Yan Yun sect had died at the hands of the demons. Old Man Yan’s shout immediately brought the rhythm back, and hatred appeared on the faces of all the cultivators again.
And this was what Zhuang Changhe wanted to see.
“Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me.”
Zhuang Changhe’s voice rang out at the right time, and everyone immediately became quiet.
“Everyone, please be quiet. Let’s listen to sect leader Zhuang’s next words.”.
“Shh!”
Seeing the reaction of the crowd, Zhuang Changhe cupped his hands towards everyone and continued speaking.
“Regarding how the two of them colluded with the demon race, everyone only knows one thing and not the other.”
“Today, we have invited all the great sects and fellow Daoists to come here because we also want to invite everyone to witness something. But before that, let me first tell you about the identities of these two people. I believe that there are many people here who know these two people.”
As he spoke, Zhuang Changhe waved his hand, and a stream of spiritual energy emerged from his palm. The dense spiritual energy brushed past the two dazed figures, and suddenly, their eyes regained their luster.
When the two miserable figures’faces were gradually revealed in front of everyone’s eyes, the scene exploded with a bang.
“That is the missing sect master of the Anwo sect, Daoist zuo. Who is the other person?”
A cultivator on the scene recognized the two people at the same time and could not help but exclaim.
“Oh my God, the other person is Daoist heartless, the grand elder of the selfless sect.”
Hiss! Hiss!
When they recognized the two people’s true faces, there was a burst of surprised and confused discussion from the audience.
At this moment, the people with the ugliest expressions were Daoist Xuan Guang and the others from the selfless sect who had come to attend the meeting.
This was because not only did they know the two people on the stage, but they were also the number one and number two figures in the selfless sect.
One was the sect master, and the other was the great elder.
TSK TSK!
If one of them was not dealt with properly, their sect would be charged with colluding with the demon race. From then on, they would not be able to raise their heads in the eastern wastelands and would become the target of everyone who crossed the street.
“Sect… sect master, why are Sect Master Zuo and first elder Wuxin on the stage? Aren’t they dead? Why are they appearing at the Black Heavenly Sword Sect’s trial assembly?”
“Senior Brother Xuanguang, what is going on?”
The elders from the selfless sect were not like old Daoist xuanguang, who had recognized the identities of the two long ago. The traitors from the eastern wastelands who had been gnashing their teeth at him just now had suddenly become members of their own sect, even though they had been cultivating for hundreds of years, they still could not help but look at a loss.
Elder Xuan Guang immediately berated them coldly.
“What are you panicking for? You’ve really embarrassed our anatarist sect!”
