Chapter 197: You Want Us to Admit to Crimes? Don’t Slander Us!
Immediately, a disciple could not help but retort, “Senior Brother Gu is not such a person, how could he collude with the Demon Region! Everything must be based on evidence, otherwise, it would be slander!”
The Shangyang Sect Master looked at him as if he was a dead person.
“A mere disciple in the Qi Refinement stage actually dares to talk nonsense in front of me, he is simply courting death.”
Shen Tianyi secretly felt that things were not good. He wanted to stop him, but in the end, he was a step too late.
“No!”
A sharp palm wind suddenly landed on the disciple’s body, and he instantly flew ten meters away. Blood flowed all over the ground, and after a few twitches, he lost his breath and died instantly.
Everyone could not help but gasp when they saw this.
Their lives were not worth anything in the eyes of these people. Killing them was as easy as squashing an ant.
“Amitabha, why do we have to hurt them? Maybe they are all innocent. Let’s not increase the number of deaths.”
Hearing this, Shen Tianyi felt that it was extremely ironic. If they really did not want to increase the number of deaths, they could have stopped them at the start instead of waiting until now to speak hypocritically.
“They are not innocent at all!”
Shen Tianyi suppressed the hatred in his heart. Fighting these people head-on would only increase the sacrifice. All the people of Supreme Purity Sect added together were not a match for the person in front of him.
Moreover, there were several powerful people with unfathomable strength. It was simply not something that their small sect could deal with.
“Maybe there is some misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?” The Sect Master of Shangyang Sect sneered continuously. “We are the best evidence. How could it be fake when so many people saw it?”
“After leaving the Secret Realm, Gu Xi and the demon woman of the Demon Region were very close, and the Demon Region even sent people to rescue him. He came from Supreme Purity Sect, and you dare to say that you didn’t know about it? Or maybe you also covered up the spies of the Demon Region and gained a lot of benefits from it?”
The people of the Supreme Purity Sect were rendered speechless by the question.
“If you know what’s good for you, then tell us everything about Gu Xi. Otherwise, we won’t show any mercy. We will kill all the people or spies of the Demon Region without mercy!”
The Sect Master of the Shangyang Sect was extremely vicious. His powerful aura crushed the entire scene. Those disciples were like frightened quails, shivering.
The Elders’ expressions were extremely ugly.
The people of the Ethereal Illusion Mansion said, “Why are you so angry? Maybe they really don’t know. We should also give people a chance to prove their innocence.”
Shen Tian lowered his eyelids. He knew that this was a good-cop-bad-cop act. He revealed a bitter expression and said, “I hope that all the Sect Masters can clearly see that Gu Xi is really not a spy from the Demon Region.”
This answer was obviously not what they wanted.
How could Gu Xi be a spy from the Demon Region?!
This sudden news made everyone’s head spin.
In the eyes of the other disciples, although Gu Xi rarely interacted with others and his style of doing things was quite mysterious, he definitely had nothing to do with the Demon Region.
Even if Shen Tianyi thought that Gu Xi’s background was extraordinary, he had never thought about this aspect. It was still possible for him to be taken in as a disciple by some mighty figure, but it was absolutely impossible for him to collude with the Demon Region.
“Even if Gu Xi is a spy from the Demon Region, he shouldn’t be undercover in our small Supreme Purity Sect, right? He should choose those big sects. What can he get from us?”
Shen Tianyi was still self-aware. The Supreme Purity Sect had magic treasures, but compared to the sects in the Capital, they were nothing. Moreover, their Supreme Purity Sect did not have any treasures.
As for the Demon Region, they did not need to send spies to go through so much trouble.
Unfortunately, this group of people did not think so.
“You still want to quibble! It seems that you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. Are you asking for us to kill you?”
The Sect Master of the Ancient Sect struck out with his palm. It was like a giant hand that fell from the sky, striking the mountain peak behind Shen Tianyi. In an instant, a powerful impact spread rapidly, and many disciples were affected. Their faces were extremely pale.
Turning around, more than half of the mountain peak had been cut off. When everyone saw this scene, they could not help but feel a chill in their hearts.
“If you know what’s good for you, then tell us honestly. Otherwise, this is what will happen to all of you. Crushing all of you is as easy as crushing an ant.”
Facing the unreasonable and aggressive attitude of the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect, the disciples of the Supreme Purity Sect looked at each other and were extremely angry. Even clay figurines had their tempers, let alone these disciples.
Finally, an Elder could not help but shout angrily, “What do you want us to say? If we don’t have it, then we don’t have it. Do you want to beat us into admitting something we didn’t do?”
The face of the Ancient Sect Master instantly turned extremely gloomy. He said gloomily, “You’re so protective of Gu Xi. Could it be that you’re his accomplice?”
The moment he finished speaking, no one saw clearly how he attacked. They only saw an afterimage flash by. The Elder who spoke only felt a pain in his chest, he lowered his head and found that there was an icicle shining with a cold light.
Plop!
The muffled sound rang again, and he fell forward like a ragdoll. Looking at the Fourth Elder’s fallen figure, the Supreme Purity Sect disciples became even more indignant.
Their eyes turned red, and they gnashed their teeth, but they could only lower their heads and hide the hatred in their eyes, so as to prevent them from making a big fuss again.
However, the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect was still making sarcastic remarks. “Look, we’ve found another one.”
“Isn’t this a little inappropriate? What if he’s really innocent?”
“Even if they don’t know, they might have received some benefits from Gu Xi. Otherwise, why would they speak up for him like this? No matter what, they are accused of hiding spies from the Demon Region.”
Hearing this, the people from the Supreme Purity Sect were so angry that their eyes were about to bleed.
