292: Chapter 292 Chu Sheng's Forbearance
"Get lost!"
Chu Sheng suddenly kicked out violently, sending the Chu Family Head flying, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of the Shuiyue Holy Land crowd, Chu Sheng said expressionlessly, "I have long instructed you all to behave yourselves, be restrained and modest, and never bully others by relying on your status!"
"We are all fellow disciples of the Shuiyue Holy Land; is there anything that cannot be discussed calmly while sitting down?"
"Young Friend Ji, and you lot, you unfilial descendants, tell the whole story from the beginning. The Holy Land has its rules, and since the Holy Master is here, everything will be handled according to the Holy Land's regulations. I will absolutely not favor either side!"
As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar immediately broke out.
"How come I heard that Old Ancestor Chu Sheng has always been protective of his own? Since when does he talk about fairness and justice?"
"Does that even need to be asked? Ji Taichang is a Prodigy valued by the Holy Master. It must be that the Holy Master persuaded him in secret to back Ji Taichang, so Old Ancestor Chu Sheng has no choice but to give Face to the Holy Master."
"Shh—do not discuss the Old Ancestor recklessly!"
The crowd whispered.
Ji Taichang couldn't help but take another look at Chu Sheng, deep in thought.
Although Chu Sheng appeared calm on the surface and spoke of handling things fairly.
But Ji Taichang possessed six Supreme-grade talents, and his perception was incredibly sharp; he sensed that Chu Sheng clearly harbored killing intent toward him, only he was suppressing it with all his might!
This old thing definitely won't let this go!
It seems I still need to find an Opportunity to send the entire Chu family to their final destination...
The Chu Family Head crawled up from the ground and said, "Old Ancestor, Chu Qianlan and Chu Liyun were all killed, but according to what Chu Liyun said before he died, it was Chu Liyun and Chu Qianlan who discovered the endless sword casket in the Konglan Sea Area, and then..."
"Bullshit!"
Su Yuehe stepped out with long strides and said angrily, "I was acting together with Junior Brother Ji at that time, and I can testify for Junior Brother Ji! It was clearly Junior Brother Ji who obtained the endless sword casket at the time. It was Chu Qianlan and Chu Liyun who pretended to be passing by and then launched a sneak attack on Junior Brother Ji, which is why they were killed in retaliation by Junior Brother Ji!"
She had originally been in seclusion to Cultivate.
But the pressure when Chu Sheng came out of seclusion was too astonishing, waking her up, which is why she ran over to watch the commotion.
The Chu Family Head was furious: "You're the one talking bullshit! Just because you say so, it's true? Where is the evidence?"
Su Yuehe was not to be outdone: "Then where is your evidence? On what grounds do you say it was Junior Brother Ji who ambushed them?"
"You, you..."
The Chu Family Head was so angry he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Chu Qianlan, Chu Liyun, and the others who had personally experienced the matter were all killed; where was the Chu family supposed to find evidence!!
Chu Sheng's eyes flickered; he couldn't be sure who was lying.
However...
Chu Liyun's Aptitude was not as good as Ji Taichang's, and Chu Qianlan was even worse.
By all logic, a Supreme treasure like the endless sword casket must have extremely strict tests, and only Ji Taichang could possibly pass the test.
But Chu Sheng certainly wouldn't voice his speculation, instead looking at Ling Qinghan.
"Holy Master, now both sides are sticking to their own stories, and there is no proof, how do you think this should be handled?"
He threw the difficult problem to Ling Qinghan.
Ling Qinghan said indifferently, "When people die, debts are cleared. Let the matter end here; no one is allowed to cause trouble for the other side."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Chu family crowd immediately exploded.
"This is unfair!!"
"Chu Qianlan and Chu Liyun were both killed by Ji Taichang; there is no proof, his words cannot be trusted!"
"Holy Master, you are being biased!"
"Our Chu family has lost so many people, suffering heavy losses; for you to openly favor him like this is so unjust!"
"Old Ancestor, say something, Old Ancestor!!"
"..."
The Chu family crowd was indignant and unwilling to let it go at that.
Ling Qinghan ignored them. Her deep, beautiful eyes fell upon Ji Taichang, but she was surprised to discover that even with her cultivation strength, she actually couldn't see through Ji Taichang's cultivation!
"It seems this child has obtained quite a significant Opportunity in the Konglan Sea Area..."
Ling Qinghan was lost in thought.
"Alright, let's do as the Holy Master said."
"Everyone disperse!"
Chu Sheng spoke in a deep voice, flicked his large sleeve, and directly used great magic power to sweep up the Chu family crowd, leaving this place immediately!
Although he was also unwilling.
But considering the threat of Nan Yin, he still had to swallow his anger!
"Just wait, once I subdue the Supreme treasure I obtained from the Forbidden Zone of Life... this grudge will definitely be avenged!"
"And the endless sword casket... a Supreme treasure of this level is simply a waste in this brat's hands; it rightfully belongs to me!"
A cold glint flashed in Chu Sheng's eyes!
"Many thanks to the Holy Master for upholding justice for me."
Ji Taichang cupped his hands and bowed to Ling Qinghan.
Ling Qinghan nodded slightly, and her figure flashed and disappeared; even Ji Taichang couldn't see her movements clearly.
"Young Friend Ji, who is this Fellow Daoist?"
A Body Integration Stage Old Ancestor couldn't help but speak up, his gaze looking toward Kunkun behind Ji Taichang.
Most of the Shuiyue Holy Land Cultivators also wore curious expressions, their gossip flames burning fiercely.
"This is a mount I took in by chance while outside. Later, in the Konglan Sea Area, it obtained some fortuitous encounters, which is why its cultivation skyrocketed..."
Ji Taichang explained casually, but it triggered shock and an uproar throughout the entire Shuiyue Holy Land!
A Body Integration Stage Ninth Level Peak powerhouse was actually Ji Taichang's servant; how incredible!!
The eyes of the crowd looking at Ji Taichang were full of shock and envy!
After exchanging pleasantries with the Shuiyue Holy Land crowd for a moment.
Ji Taichang rode Kunkun and left the Shuiyue Holy Land, starting to head toward Setting Sun Valley!
...
"Gaga... It's only been less than a year since we left, but it feels like a long time has passed."
Kunkun stood high above Setting Sun Valley, looking down at this dim and oppressive Forbidden Zone of Life, unable to help but sigh.
Since she started following Ji Taichang, she had experienced too many things.
"Stop sighing, let's go in."
Ji Taichang patted her head irritably.
Kunkun shrank her body to a hundred zhang and flapped her wings, charging into Setting Sun Valley.
With Ji Taichang and Kunkun's current cultivation strength, plus avoiding the most dangerous core areas, the man and bird successfully arrived at the place where Kunkun had once slumbered.
In a gloomy and gray area, a towering mountain stood, surrounded by immortal light and divine radiance, an extraordinary sight.
On the mountaintop was an extremely profound Formation, with immortal Yao Race runes branded into the Void Realm, drawing down the essence of heaven and earth and the power of extraterrestrial stars, forcibly plundering the fortunes of heaven and earth, continuously converging toward the center of the Formation.
"Two Eighth-grade Formations!"
Ji Taichang touched his chin, deep in thought.
Eighth-grade corresponds to the Mahayana Stage!
His cultivation was too low when he came here last time; looking at these two Formations now, he keenly detected a clue!
This time, without Ji Taichang needing to break the Formation, Kunkun charged out as if possessed, not being blocked by the Formation, and returned to the mountaintop.
"Ooh... so comfortable."
Kunkun stretched.
Suddenly.
The entire mountain shook violently, then suddenly split open, and seven-colored immortal light, blazing to the extreme, rushed out from within the mountain body, sinking into Kunkun's body.
A vast, ocean-like aura rushed toward them, causing the firmament to tremble, the sky and earth to shake, and a terrifying aura swept across the eight wildernesses!
