Chapter 65: Causing Clouds and Rains by Turning Ones Hand (1) (1/2)

Regarding Li Qiye’s statement, Dong Shenglong’s eyes became severe, and he deeply shouted: “A bunch of nonsense and rubbish; you are spewing blood on my good name!” [1]

Li Qiye was unperturbed as could be. He faced the first elder and the other four elders before saying: “Elders, my words are the truth. If our Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect and the Nine Saint Demon Gate becomes in-laws, who would be the most unwilling to see this? If one wants to break the marital pact, the most direct and effective method would be to slay me on false charges. What is cheating one’s master and killing one’s ancestor? What is disrespectful to seniors? These are all false accusations. The true goal is to destroy our two sect’s marriage.”

These small schemes to Li Qiye, who had lived for countless years, were simply insufficient to reach the apex. If Dong Shenglong didn’t come, then he would need to waste his breath to justify everything. However, once Dong Shenglong had actually arrived, this was the same as giving him a living target.

Li Qiye leisurely and comfortably said: “Elders, protectors; I’m afraid the one wanting to betray the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect is not me. It is an entirely different person. There is a person here that conspires with the Heavenly G.o.d Sect… That person conspires both internally and externally in order to hurt and ma.s.sacre disciples.”

At this point, since it was such a big matter, the other protectors were all rus.h.i.+ng over. Now, the entire upper echelon of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect were gathered at the Cleansing Jade Peak.

Cao Xiong reddened with anger and loudly yelled: “Traitor! Spewing blood on others is an unforgivable crime; one that can’t be redeemed even with ten thousand deaths!”

He wanted to cross over towards Li Qiye, but he was stopped by Elder Gu.

Cao Xiong furiously yelled: “Older brother, could it be that you really want to protect a traitor that killed his own sect members?!”

At this moment, First Elder Gu Tieshou’s expression became cold, and he unemotionally said: “Little Brother, the sect’s elders and protectors are all here. Regarding this matter, right or wrong, black or white, everyone will discuss towards a conclusion! Why is there a need for little brother to be so hasty at this moment?!”

First Elder was not a fool. This matter was strange, and it was seemingly unordinary. Dong Shenglong wouldn’t bring this matter upon himself! At this moment, First Elder’s complexion greatly soured.

Yet, at this time, Li Qiye interrupted and unhurriedly said: “Elder Cao is in such a rush to kill me for the sake of silencing. Elder Cao and this old fellow Dong conspired together to do evil things. They planned to murder me, and destroy the marriage between the two sects. Respect to all of our elders and protectors, right or wrong, black or white, I trust that everyone’s eyes are as bright as the snow; who is loyal and who is traitorous? It is easy to distinguish after one look.”

“Animal, since you are spewing blood on others, you cannot be left alive!”

Dong Shenglong deafeningly roared, and, in the blink of an eye, his blood energy soared to the sky; his Royal n.o.ble pressure ran rampant, aiming for Li Qiye.

“Brother Dong, please have some self-control!”

At this moment, First Elder Gu Tieshou’s eyes shone fiercely with killing intent. At this moment, the normally peaceful First Elder had become a different person!

Dong Shenglong’s Royal n.o.ble pressure hadn’t decreased, but rather it increased; a “Bang Bang” sound reverberated in the air. The frightening true energy floated above his head like the unyielding roar of a dragon. His Royal n.o.ble pressure caused all of the protectors and elders to lose their colors.

First Elder Gu Tieshou scowled coldly; his blood energy immediately surged, and the sound of his longevity blood crashed against the sh.o.r.e, like a gigantic ancient thunderous Ming. The moment when his blood energy soared, there was the sound of a Kun Peng screaming. In the Fate Palace of the first elder, a Kun Peng jumped outside. The Kun Peng covered the sky, and it antagonized mother earth itself. At this moment, the body of First Elder had a continuous and powerful Royal n.o.ble’s pressure!

Royal n.o.ble; that’s right, First Elder Gu Tieshou was indeed a Royal n.o.ble. This matter not only shocked the disciples, but it even shocked Elder Sun’s group. Cao Xiong especially squinted his eyes!

Right now, Gu Tieshou was meeting Dong Shenglong; each step was creating a new world. The Kun Peng floating on the peak of his head seemingly wanted to crack the earth and smash the sky. In the presence of a Kun Peng’s heavenly pressure, all existences were its devout wors.h.i.+ppers!

Everyone didn’t expect First Elder Gu to be a hidden expert. Everyone had thought that he was just a Named Hero; a peak Named Hero at best. They didn’t believe that his true strength was that of a Royal n.o.ble!

Right then Dong Shenglong, as an experienced Royal n.o.ble, immediately changed his expression. As both of them were Royal n.o.bles, he felt a certain sense of threat because Elder Gu practiced an Emperor merit law. On top of this, it was the strongest Emperor merit law left behind by Immortal Emperor Min Ren: the Kun Peng’s Six Variants! This was the core Emperor merit law of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, and it was a great threat to Dong Shenglong.

“Good, good, good! Brother Gu is very secretive about his power. It causes others to misunderstand! Today, it seems like I have meddled in others business, and my kindness is being treated as being two-faced! If this is the case, then this Dong will first take my leave!” [2]

Dong Shenglong’s eyes sunk. After speaking, he turned around and left.

Dong Shenglong was a clever man. He knew that the current situation was disadvantageous to him. If he remained here any longer, he would be trapped inside. It was better to take a step back!

Cao Xiong’s expression was hard to look at to the extreme. First Elder’s hidden strength was able to repel Dong Shenglong. This situation suddenly became much worse for him.

At this moment, Li Qiye casually said: “It seems like there is someone who felt guilty and ran away first.”
