NOVEL NEXT Chapter 142 Heavenly Slaughter Star (Subscription Request) _6
Hua Xianzi quietly sat behind Chen Yi, her beautiful eyes filled with worry and a touch of complexity.
Chen Yi, it must be a difficult choice for him.
On one side, there's a fellow disciple from Sword Edge Mountain, and on the other, a half-brother sharing the same father. She would be just as conflicted in his place.
Chen Yi did not immediately speak, instead, he carefully sized up everyone present, having made up his mind.
"As for the matter concerning Senior Sister Ling Yinrong, I have already been aware of it."
"Oh?"
Before anyone else could ask, Chen Yi said, "I have been investigating these past few days, and the reality is not as it seems..."
Before meeting Chen Yuan, he had to fabricate a lie, claiming to have learned it from the barbarians.
——When Big Brother and Senior Sister Ling were being pursued, Senior Sister Ling sacrificed herself to save Big Brother's life.
"Is this true?" Gu Tiangang asked in surprise.
The others also exchanged perplexed glances, only Xie Changle shook his head:
"Junior Brother, it's not that I don't believe you, but this concerns Senior Sister Ling, and I cannot take it lightly."
Xiao Xuanzhen also frowned, looking at Chen Yi with suspicion: "Little Sword Immortal Junior Brother, you're not just trying to..."
She stopped before finishing her sentence.
Although she and Chen Yi had never gotten along, based on her understanding of Chen Yi, he definitely wouldn't concoct a lie to cover for Absolute Blade Chen Yuan.
"The truth of the matter, I will further confirm."
Chen Yi, clearly understanding their concerns, calmed their emotions and firmly stated:
"If Chen Yuan truly went mad and killed Senior Sister Ling, I will cripple his cultivation and hand him over to Master for punishment."
In truth, he was also half skeptical.
But recalling the moment he met Wen Renying, under the oppression of his Sword Intent, that demoness probably wouldn't lie to him, which made him somewhat believe.
After all, if the demoness wanted to harm him, she could've directly claimed Chen Yuan killed Ling Yinrong, causing him and Chen Yuan to face off directly.
"Nephew, do not be complacent, your brother Absolute Blade has now broken through to the Great Success Realm, and his strength is almost equal to yours."
Gu Tiangang and Sun Daofu glanced at each other, both feeling relieved.
If it really is as such, it would provide a way out for both the Grand Void Sect and Wuliang Mountain.
Otherwise, if the two sects went to war, coupled with the involvement of Yuhua Immortal Sect, it would only damage the camaraderie among the Taoist sects.
Chen Yi gave a slight nod, if it had been before, it would have been difficult to handle, but now his power has broken through, and Chen Yuan's Sword Dao is still too weak.
"Changle Senior Brother, once I have clearly investigated this matter, I will give you, and to Master, an explanation."
Seeing his serious demeanor, Xie Changle could only nod.
However, he sighed in his heart, if it's really as Junior Brother says, then the relationship between Senior Sister Ling and Chen Yuan might turn out to be unexpected.
After wrapping up the discussion, Chen Yi let everyone leave.
He pondered for a moment, as his Sword Intent flowed and spread out.
However, compared to before, this time's Sword Intent was subtle and invisible, even controlling the fog not to appear.
"Not here?"
Within a radius of five thousand li, there was no sign of Chen Yuan, which confused Chen Yi.
After reconfirming several times, aside from a few covert demons, he still came up empty-handed.
Chen Yi looked at the simple wooden hut and sighed.
"Big Brother, oh Big Brother, if you want to kill me, you'd better hurry up!"
...
In a blink of five days, a thick fog quietly rose over what was known as Dragon Heart Lake.
In the midst of the dense fog, a colossal silhouette emerged, resembling a mountainous figure.
"The secret realm, has opened!!"
