Chapter 43: Battle For Justice |
“Yue Yao! Are you determined to oppose the world?”
“Yue Yao, despite Zhang Yi being such an evil villain, are you still going to protect him? Aren’t you afraid that the Dao Sect and him will perish together?”
At this moment, the powerhouses from the three major sects and the Great Zhou Dynasty stepped forward, indignantly accusing Yue Yao.
“Ridiculous! To condemn Zhang Yi based solely on one person’s word? That’s a huge mistake!”
“If he admits it himself, I will personally kill him and give the world an explanation. But if he didn’t do it, all of you!”
Here, Yue Yao paused for a moment, sweeping her icy gaze around, full of killing intent. “All of you! Will pay the price!”
“Alright! We’re not unreasonable people. You must have a way to contact Zhang Yi and bring him back! Don’t say he wasn’t given a chance to explain!” The Sect Leader of the Heaven Sect seemed to have deep trust in Ye Haoran, and he readily agreed.
In his view, as long as Zhang Yi appeared, all the problems could be solved.
“You will pay the price for today’s events!” Yue Yao’s face was cold, and her voice was icy.
When two people bully one person, it is called bullying.
When ten people bully one person, it is still bullying.
When a hundred people bully one person, it is also bullying.
But when ten thousand people bully one person, it is called justice!
Chen Xiaokui was now mixed in the crowd, wanting to reveal the truth, but she still held back, as everything still depends on Zhang Yi’s return.
Especially seeing Ye Haoran’s smug face, she wished to slap him with her tail.
The people from various factions had surrounded Dao Sect for three days, but still didn’t see Zhang Yi’s figure, which made them impatient.
“Yue Yao, if Zhang Yi doesn’t appear today, then Dao Sect will be buried with him!” The Heaven Sect Leader’s eyes flashed with murderous intent, as he had long wanted to swallow up the Dao Sect, and now was the best opportunity.
“Bury Dao Sect with him? Why don’t you try it?” Yue Yao activated the Sect Protection Formation, boldly proclaiming, “Those who aren’t afraid to die, come and try it. Our Dao Sect has a thousand years of heritage. Let’s see how many people we can take down with us!”
Dao Sect was definitely one of the top forces in the Wuling Continent, and these words made many people start to back down.
No one wanted to be the scapegoat, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely quiet.
“A group of people without unity!” Yue Yao had seen through their thoughts a long time ago, and she contemptuously sneered.
“Yue Yao, it seems like you really want to be enemies with the world?” The Heaven Sect Leader had a dark face. Since no one was willing to be the first bird, Heaven Sect was willing!
“Just because you falsely accuse me of something, I can become the enemy of the whole world?” Yue Yao raised an eyebrow and arrogantly replied.
“Good! Very good! Dao Sect is sheltering Zhang Yi, the evil cultivator. They should be expelled from the world, and my Heaven Sect is willing to be the executioner!”
“For justice! For the righteous path of Wuling, my Heaven Sect has no choice but to act!” The Heaven Sect Leader’s words were particularly impressive, and all Heaven Sect disciples took a step forward.
“My Southern Demon Nation is also willing to exterminate evil!” An old man from the Southern Demon Country stood up.
The Sect Leader of Earth Sect, Jun Aotian, glanced at Daoist Qinglian and whispered, “Junior Sister Qinglian, how do you see this matter?”
Daoist Qinglian shook her head slightly. “Don’t worry, I don’t think Zhang Yi is that kind of person. Let’s wait and see!”
This time, Zhang Wufeng led the charge for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he had already secretly decided to stand by Zhang Yi’s side no matter what he did, regardless of right or wrong.
With two major forces leading the charge, everyone’s murderous intent began to stir, and the voice of condemning Zhang Yi echoed through the heavens and the earth.
“Any Dao Sect disciple who wants to leave Dao Sect will not be held responsible for the past. Otherwise, they will be treated as Zhang Yi’s accomplices and killed without mercy!”
Although they had a large number of people, Dao Sect’s protective formation was not just for show. It was best to dissolve it from the inside.
“We, the people of Dao Sect, swear to guard the mountain gate to the death!” Yue Yao, who was unparalleled in beauty and talent, stood at the forefront with a firm gaze.
“The people of Dao Sect, swear to guard the mountain gate to the death!”
A loud shout resounded through the sky, representing the heartfelt voice of all Dao Sect disciples.
Although Dao Sect had the fewest number of people among the four major forces, their combat power was the strongest, and their loyalty was the highest.
Today, they are willing to fight to the death just to protect the mountain gate and the reputation of the Dao sect!
Most importantly, they also believe that their Senior Brother could not have done such a thing, just like the last time Zhang Yi awakened the Supreme Bone and the three major forces wanted to kill him, not a single person from the Dao sect retreated.
This time, they will not retreat either!
Zhang Yi heard the voices of Yue Yao and the disciples of the Dao sect from a distance, and his heart was deeply moved, feeling a stronger sense of belonging to the sect.
“Yao’er, fellow disciples of the Dao sect, nothing will happen. I’m coming right away!”
After hiding and sneaking all the way, it took Zhang Yi three days to reach the Dao sect.
On the way, he had already contacted Yue Yao through the Moon Shadow Token, and released the recording of the Vision Stone through the Moon Shadow Token to let Yue Yao know everything that happened in the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land.
“Master! I’m back!” Zhang Yi shouted loudly, attracting the attention of countless people.
Almost at the same time, Yue Yao appeared beside Zhang Yi with a flash, guarding against any secret attacks.
“It’s Zhang Yi! He really came back!”
Layers of people surrounded Zhang Yi and his companions, and Chen Xiaokui even revealed her true form and ran directly to Zhang Yi’s side.
“Chen Xiaokui! You traitor of the demon race!” The old man from the Southern Demon Nation gritted his teeth, looking at Chen Xiaokui with hatred.
“Zhang Yi, you slaughtered innocent lives in the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land back then, it was a heinous and unforgivable act. Today, we are doing the righteous thing. Do you have anything to say?” Upon seeing Zhang Yi, Ye Haoran couldn’t have been happier, and rushed over to him, gloating and laughing secretly.
This feeling of framing others made him a bit addicted.
“Ye Haoran, you’re the one who distorts right and wrong and causes chaos. It was all your fault that caused the catastrophe in the Forbidden Land!” Chen Xiaokui didn’t know about Zhang Yi’s plan and angrily rebuked.
“Me? Are you kidding? Zhang Yi’s spiritual blood power can’t be concealed, and you still want to frame me? I finally escaped from your clutches. Do you think anyone will believe what you say?” Ye Haoran took advantage of this to frame Zhang Yi, since Zhang Yi’s spiritual blood power could not be hidden from some true powerhouses.
“Yue Yao, now that the truth is already in front of us, do you have anything else to say?” The Heaven Sect Leader looked at Yue Yao with a cold smile, as if victory was within his grasp.
Zhang Yi and Yue Yao almost simultaneously smiled, and their every move was full of tacit understanding.
Yue Yao gave Ye Haoran a meaningful look, then took out the Vision Stone, which made Ye Haoran have a bad premonition.
‘Damn it! That guy used the Vision Stone that day? When did he become so cautious?’ Ye Haoran thought to himself, feeling extremely uneasy, and had already prepared to escape at any time.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall; this is his code of conduct!
