CHAPTER 76: CHAPTER 76

"I do not agree with this statement."

"Who do you think you are... Uh, greetings to the Sixth Elder." Wang Yue grudgingly saluted Fei Ying.

Fei Ying pointed at the wound on Wu Jie’s head and said, "This person was killed with a single blow, but he was at the Golden Core Stage, eighth rank, whereas Miss Chen has just formed her core. How can it be confirmed that she killed this person?"

"After her tribulation, she used Heavenly Thunder to blast a cultivator into ashes. Now, being able to kill someone with one blow isn’t impossible." Some onlookers remarked.

Wang Chen was hearing such a thing for the first time. He suspiciously looked at Chen Muxue. Though she possessed the superior Water Spirit Root and had just formed her core, he had to admit she had some beauty, but in other aspects, she was completely unremarkable. Could she really do such a thing?

Thinking this, he shifted his gaze to the black-robed man supporting Chen Muxue.

Hmm... He couldn’t discern this man’s cultivation level. Even in the inn, he wore a veiled hat, not daring to show his face. There must be something suspicious!

"If she couldn’t do it, what about her accomplice?" Wang Chen hinted through his words.

Although the onlookers didn’t know who the veiled man was, they recognized him as the person who assisted Chen Muxue during her tribulation based on his silhouette.

Recalling the never-before-seen array from that day, and the fact that he casually took out a Life Fruit, the crowd found Wang Chen’s words somewhat reasonable.

However, these two seem like they’re completely together. This man is probably also from the Qian Ding Sect. They might even be dao companions?

Otherwise, how does it explain he’s willing to protect with his life?

"So, this is your Qian Ding Sect’s provocation against the Fei Xing Sect?" Wang Chen said grimly.

In any case, today, Chen Muxue should not hope to leave here alive! Not only did she kill disciples of my Fei Xing Sect, but also humiliated my niece; an unforgivable crime!

Wang Yue also provocatively looked at Chen Muxue, wondering if she could still be as arrogant as when she fought her before?

Fei Ying pressed down his hands: "Let’s all calm down. I believe Miss Chen—and the brother beside her—wouldn’t kill without reason. There must be some misunderstanding in this. Moreover, there’s no need for conflicts between cultivators to escalate to sect level..."

"Does the Sixth Elder mean our Fei Xing Sect disciple is a villain that needs elimination?" Wang Chen distorted.

I truly want to slap this old geezer.

Calm! I am the Sixth Elder of the Liuyun Sect. I represent the Liuyun Sect. I am very calm, very amiable!

Fei Ying took a deep breath, smiling: "How does Elder Wang know he isn’t a villain?"

"You’re defaming my senior! He’s already dead!" Wang Yue said angrily.

"Yes, people die."

"What if he was a good person?"

"Why argue so much about the dead."

The onlookers chimed in with various opinions. Wang Yue listened and with a proud expression of "Are you listening?" looked toward Chen Muxue.

"Whether he is a villain is plain to see."

"Master Uncle?" Lin Qing and Liu Lingshi in the crowd looked at the arriving person, somewhat astonished.

The Second Elder of the Liuyun Sect, Fei Lian, was now standing at the inn’s entrance.

Behind him followed a hooded, masked person, mainly dressed in moonlight white with blood-red accessories, adding to the mystery.

"The Immortal Supervision Bureau is here!"

Fei Lian and Fei Ying exchanged a glance, then Fei Lian made a gesture of invitation. The masked person walked straight to Wu Jie’s corpse.

Fei Ying silently thought: What did he convey with that look just now? Didn’t comprehend...

"Who is that?"

"It’s from the identification division of the Immortal Supervision Bureau, you didn’t know that? White attire for identification, black for intervention."

"What does intervention mean?"

That person looked around and whispered, "Elimination!"
