Chapter 252 Evidence and Betrayal
Qingfeng Temple!
This name is not unfamiliar to the martial arts masters present.
Because a few years ago, the name Qingfeng Temple had spread throughout Nanjiangzhou.
In the other world, there is not much communication between warriors and practitioners, and there are not many disciples in Qingfeng Temple. Therefore, not many people in the martial arts world knew about Qingfeng Temple a few years ago.
However, due to the Ghost King crisis in Shangyang City seven years ago, and the information revealed by Zhang Wuji to the outside world, the name Qingfeng Temple was remembered by these martial arts masters.
However, Qingfeng Temple is a place for practitioners, and the affairs of the divine sect belong to their martial arts circle. Under normal circumstances, the practicing sect will not interfere in the affairs of the martial arts circle.
The same is true in reverse, martial arts sects will not easily interfere in the fights between spiritual practice sects.
"What Qingfeng Temple? You are a guest elder of Shenyun Sect!"
An elder from the Divine Level Sect spoke up, claiming that he had exposed Lin Ye's lies, and that Lin Ye was a guest of the Divine Level Sect, so his words naturally could not be used as evidence.
"I am both a guest elder of the Shenyun Sect and a disciple of the Qingfeng Temple. These two identities should not conflict with each other. Who stipulates that people who practice cultivation cannot practice martial arts?"
Lin Ye retorted with a smile, and his words made the elder who had spoken not know how to respond for a moment.
Indeed, although martial arts and practitioners are two different circles, there are some practitioners who practice martial arts, and there are also some martial artists who will try to practice.
Of course, most of them have reached a bottleneck and want to find another way to break through.
There are very few people as young as Lin Ye who practice both cultivation and martial arts. One reason is that people’s energy is limited, and even some conceited geniuses dare not do so.
Secondly, it is not easy to get full support from the sect and the master by doing so, unless the master found is also a warrior and a cultivator. Otherwise, no sect would be afraid to give full support, and in the end the other party would benefit.
But no matter how big the problem is, there is indeed no rule that warriors cannot practice cultivation, or that practitioners cannot practice martial arts.
"I want to see what evidence you can produce!"
The elder of the God-level sect snorted coldly, and Lin Ye smiled and said, "Of course I will take it out."
"Little brother, if you have any evidence, please bring it out as soon as possible."
The other martial arts masters around were also looking at Lin Ye anxiously. Lin Ye nodded, reached out to take off the package on his back, and then took out an oil-paper umbrella from it.
"Three months ago, the head of the Chen family in Canglan County, a Jingzhe mid-level expert, disappeared, and his entire family was killed without leaving a single survivor. I think all of you seniors know about this."
"Yes, I even went to the Chen family in Canglan County to see if I could find any clues about the mastermind behind this."
"I went there too. Unfortunately, no one from the Chen family survived, and the scene was cleaned up very well. I couldn't find any useful clues."
Several elders around Lin Ye spoke up one after another. The martial arts masters watching the ceremony, including most of the disciples of the God-level Sect, were familiar with what happened to the Chen family three months ago.
"Yes, not a single person from the Chen family was left alive. But the good thing is that although the people died, their souls remained."
“Nonsense!”
Before Lin Ye could finish his words, a disciple from the Divine Level Sect interrupted him loudly.
"After a warrior dies, his soul will not wander in the world of the living. Where did you go to recruit the soul?"
The other world is different from the real world. In the other world, warriors’ souls disappear after death. This is known not only to the people present, but also to Lin Ye himself.
Lin Ye knew this very early, and he even asked Judge Lu why the soul of a warrior would disappear?
Lu Pan answered him that warriors are different from ordinary people. Because warriors have strong blood and energy during their lifetime, if their souls can still exist after death, they will easily become evil ghosts.
Therefore, once a warrior dies, his soul will normally disappear from the world of the living, but it will not go to the underworld immediately, but will be in another place.
Fengdu City!
When Lin Ye heard about Fengdu City for the first time, he was stunned, because in the legends of the real world, Fengdu City is the ghost town in the underworld and the place where the King of Hell resides.
But Judge Lu told him that the Fengdu City in the other world was not in the underworld, but somewhere between the underworld and the world of the living.
After ordinary people die, their souls have to pass three levels before going to the underworld, but warriors can directly skip these three levels and go to the underworld after arriving at Fengdu City.
Therefore, neither the Taoist nor the Buddhist necromancy can summon the souls of dead warriors.
But in addition to the Buddhist and Taoist necromancy, Lin Ye also has the City God Seal from the City God Temple in Canglan County.
With the help of this City God Seal, he summoned the soul of a dead person from the Chen family.
The underworld is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of warriors and the three Buddhist and Taoist sects, but Lin Ye is not the underworld and does not have to abide by the rules of the underworld. It is precisely because of his special situation that he was able to find witnesses.
"Everyone can tell at a glance whether it is a member of the Chen family or not."
Lin Ye opened the oil-paper umbrella, and a ghost figure floated out of the umbrella, and finally appeared in front of everyone.
This is a middle-aged man, but his face is extremely pale at the moment. In addition to the fact that ghosts have a relatively white skin color, there is also the fact that there are so many Jingzhe realm warriors present, and their blood is too strong, which makes the ghost feel very uncomfortable due to being suppressed.
"The second son of the Chen family?"
"Chen Feng?"
After the middle-aged man's figure appeared, several warriors exclaimed in surprise, and it was obvious who this middle-aged man was.
Chen Feng, the younger brother of the Chen family patriarch, is at the Great Perfection of Hundred Furnaces. However, because he has an elder brother who is at the middle level of the Jingzhe realm, he has dealt with many Jingzhe realm masters.
"Since everyone knows this person's identity, there is no need for me to continue introducing him." Lin Ye looked at Chen Feng and said, "Second Master Chen, tell everyone the truth."
Even though Chen Feng felt very uncomfortable under the pressure of the thick blood energy, his eyes were still full of hatred when he looked at the people from the God-level Sect, and he said angrily: "It's the God-level Sect..."
"You are talking nonsense. As a ghost, who knows if you have been bewitched by someone? My God-level Sect will not tolerate your slander."
But before Chen Feng could finish his words, the second elder of the God-level Sect suddenly made a move, and a flying knife with a flashing cold light shot towards Chen Feng.
The sudden attack of the Second Elder of the Divine Level Sect was beyond the expectations of everyone present. The martial arts masters watching the ceremony did not react in time. However, when the flying knife was only one foot away from Chen Feng, a snowflake fell on the flying knife.
Everyone saw a flash of white light passing before their eyes, and Jing Yu's figure stood in front of Chen Feng, with the Luoxue sword in his hand unsheathed.
"Elder Lian, are you trying to silence someone?"
"Could it be that you, the God-level sect, are guilty of your crimes?"
The many powerful men who were watching the ceremony reacted at this moment, and glared at the second elder of the Divine Level Sect. At the same time, they moved slightly, forming a subtle defensive posture against the Divine Level Sect.
By now, they have believed what Zhang Wuji said.
In recent years, the mastermind behind the secret murders of the Jingzhe Realm powerhouses in Nanjiangzhou is the Divine Level Sect.
"What's the motive? Why would our God-level sect do this?"
Zhao Yichun, who had been silent the whole time, looked calm as he turned to Lin Ye and said, "You said that all this was done by my God-level Sect, but what good ?"
Zhao Yichun's words made the martial arts masters who were watching the ceremony frown. Yes, what was the purpose of the God-level Sect doing this?
Maintain the divine gate’s status as a holy place of martial arts?
There is no need. Relying on the foundation and strength of the God-level Gate, no one in Nanjiangzhou can shake the status of the God-level Gate.
"Because something has happened to the Half-step Martial Saint of your God-level Sect, the God-level Sect needs to use forbidden techniques to seize the power of these Jingzhe Realm strongmen for their own use, so that the Half-step Martial Saint can recover his strength, or create a new Half-step Martial Saint. It is very easy for the God-level Sect to prove that we framed him, and all they need to do is let the Half-step Martial Saint of your God-level Sect show up."
Lin Ye's words made all the martial arts masters watching the ceremony look at Zhao Yichun. This was indeed a good way to prove it.
"What a joke! You can see our sect's supreme elder whenever you want. Who the hell do you think you are?"
"Yes, you are not qualified to see our Grand Elder."
The elders and disciples of the God-level sect also looked disdainful. Even they were not qualified to see the Supreme Elder, let alone outsiders.
"The innocent are innocent. Our Divine Sect does not need to explain to outsiders. It is easy to meet the Supreme Elder. As long as you can step over the heads of many people in our Divine Sect, you will be qualified to meet him."
As soon as the second elder of the Divine Level Sect said this, the powerful people watching the ceremony were in an uproar. The Divine Level Sect was planning to rely on its powerful strength and simply not give an explanation.
Are we going to break off relations with the God-level sect?
Those who had a connection with the warriors who were killed were naturally extremely angry, but most of the powerful people watching the ceremony had nothing to do with those who were killed. To a certain extent, they even benefited from the killing of those powerful people.
Because there is only so much territory, if one competitor dies, you can occupy more territory and gain more resources.
"What a bunch of cowards!"
Zhang Wuji looked at those indifferent people and said with a pah sound. The martial arts expert who was being looked at by Zhang Wuji had an unhappy expression and argued: "Elder Zhang, this is just your one-sided statement. We need to investigate further."
"That's just bullshit. The soul of the second son of the Chen family is here, so it can still be a one-sided statement. However, the evil hand of the God-level Gate has not fallen on your heads."
The old man who first came to Zhang Wuji directly retorted.
“Sect Master Yang, you are worried when you know your brother is dead, but what I said makes sense. If you can provide more sufficient evidence, even if you fight to the death today, the God-level Sect will pay a heavy price.”
"Yes, I think so too."
These powerful people who were watching the ceremony expressed their opinions one after another. When several elders of the God-level Sect saw this scene, mockery flashed in their eyes. What if the truth was known? As long as they did not admit it, those who were not involved would not dare to become enemies with their God-level Sect.
But the elders of the God-level sect did not feel happy for long, as a voice came from the side of the martial arts field.
"I am Li Yifei, the former young master of the God-level Sect. I can testify that the Grand Elder of my God-level Sect went into seclusion a few years ago and became possessed, causing a significant decline in strength. In order to restore his strength, the Grand Elder began to practice forbidden techniques and secretly sent people to capture the strong men of the Awakening Realm and bring them to the mountain for the Grand Elder to seize their power."
Li Yifei's figure appeared, and his powerful words made the expressions of these strong men who had originally planned to stay out of the matter become solemn.
In the God-level sect’s camp, many disciples and even several elders were all shocked.
These disciples and elders did not know about this.
Obviously, only a few people knew about this shameful thing even within the God-level sect.
Zhao Yichun, who was standing on the high platform, looked at his apprentice's defection with a complicated expression, but he was not angry.
"quiet!"
The next moment, a sound like thunder exploded in everyone's ears.
Everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Yichun, the leader of the god-level sect, who revealed his might at this moment.
