Geniuses Remember Love in One Second/Small? Let me provide you with the most interesting reading.
At three o 'clock in the afternoon, a top-secret meeting was held in the grand conference room of Burning Prairie.
The participants of the meeting were almost a hundred top people of the Tian Yuan Realm and the leaders of the Cultivators from the Flying Star Sector.
Ding Dang, Professor Mo Xuan, Wu Mayan, and Xie Anan, who were close to Li Yao, were in the meeting, too.
The host of the meeting was Lu Zui, director of the Secret Sword Bureau.
Of the three most influential people in the Federation, Speaker Jiang Hailiu was heavily wounded and still in critical condition. Iron Commander Zhou Hengdao was seriously wounded, too. Thankfully, seventy percent of his body was artificial limbs, and he would be fine after they were replaced in time. Lu Zui was the only one who was unharmed.
At this moment, hundreds of strong Cultivators were gathered in the same room, but the place was as noisy as a market. Everybody was slapping the table and yelling.
"Director Lu, give us an explanation. Why?"
"In the beast tide three months ago, the enemy marched to the sky of the capital city, but your intelligence work was seriously flawed. That's not a big deal!
"Three months later, even the Speaker of the Federation was assassinated in public. What the hell was wrong with your intelligence and security work?
"According to your intelligence, everything was orchestrated by 'Vulture Li Yao'. What unquestionable proof do you have?
"The Secret Sword Bureau has obtained all the authorizations and used the highest permissions. Even our allies have been monitored. But the result is still the same! We can't take it anymore! Today, there must be a clear explanation for all of this! "
"Otherwise, we will impeach you in parliament!"
Countless Cultivators were infuriated.
"Exactly."
Luoxingzi, the leader of the Cultivators from the Flying Star Sector and who had fought side by side with Li Yao in the riot of the Immortal Cultivators, rose up and said, "Li Yao is not just a Cultivator from the Heaven's Origin Sector. He has a lot of influence in the Flying Star Sector, especially on Iron Plateau, the largest habitable planet in the Flying Star Sector. All the accusations against him must be considered carefully. Otherwise, an irreparable gap between the two Sectors may be caused!
"In the past few months, you have presented some evidence, but in our eyes, it is far from enough. For the cooperation between the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector, and for the smooth investigation of the whole thing, we have been cooperating with you. We didn't expect that things would turn out like this!
"Director Lu Zui, we must have a complete explanation today!
"If there is undeniable proof that Li Yao has truly been possessed by the Blood Devil, turned to the demon race's side, and even killed his own compatriots, the Flying Star Sector will certainly cooperate with you.
He stopped talking, shook his sleeves coldly, and sat back down. [Quick update. The website is clean and has few advertisements. I like this kind of website best. Please give me a good review.]
Not far away from him, Ding Ling Dong, Professor Mo Xuan, Wu Mayan, and Xie Anan were sitting together. They were perhaps the firmest supporters of 'Li Yao's group'.
But right now, even they were hesitating.
"Sister Ding, do you think that Master would really betray the Federation and kill so many ordinary people?" Xie Anan wriggled uneasily.
Ding Lingdang bit her lips tightly. Her red hair was wreathed in icy flames.
Professor Mo Xuan sighed and said, "Of course, the real Li Yao wouldn't. But on Iron Plateau, Yan Xibei, who was not possessed by the Blood Demon yet, would not betray his own people, either.
"Maybe, until the last moment, Yan Xibei did not feel that he was betraying his own people. Instead, he felt that he was saving the future of Iron Plateau!"
Faced with so many criticisms, criticisms, and even curses, Lu Zui, director of the Secret Sword Bureau, was as calm as an ice sculpture. He stared at everybody in silence for a long time, as if he were trying to dry his saliva. It was not until the hubbub gradually died down that he activated the light beam and said calmly, "We accept your opinions on the work of the Secret Sword Bureau. But in my opinion, now is not the time to investigate who is responsible but to figure out a solution.
"It's true that we did not present the critical evidence in the past few months. On one hand, it was because the issue was too mysterious and involved too many unimaginable things. On the other hand, we were hesitating whether or not there were other possibilities.
"As it turned out, it was our hesitation that got us and our compatriots into trouble!
"There's no need for you to impeach me.
"First of all, I would like to promise all the representatives and fellow Cultivators that I will take full responsibility for all the mistakes of the Secret Sword Bureau. After the issue is resolved, I will take the blame and resign!"
The words' take the blame and resign 'immediately silenced the meeting room.
Lu Zui had publicly declared that he was going to resign. What else could other people say?
Emotionlessly, Lu Zui said casually, "Alright. Now, allow me to disclose all the details of the work of the 'Falcon Squad' in the past half year to you. You will know whether or not our accusations against Li Yao are justified after you hear them.
"Please note that every word I'm about to say is top secret. Whoever leaks anything out of this conference room will likely be punished for 'treason'!"
Lu Zui took a deep breath and began his introduction.
"The so-called 'Falcon Squad' is an elite intelligence force lurking in the Blood Demon Sector that I am personally responsible for. Since half a year ago, one of their missions has been to collect all the intelligence about Li Yao in the Blood Demon Sector, reach out to him, and give him a hand when it is necessary.
"However, we are all well aware that we are vastly different from the demons. Also, the demons have always been on the offensive, and we have always been on the defensive.
"Therefore, while it is easy for the demons to infiltrate the Tian Yuan Realm through the beast tide outbreak, it is much more difficult for us to infiltrate the Blood Demon Sector.
"After decades of painstaking efforts, I have only planted a few spies in the Blood Demon Sector. In order to investigate the truth of the 'Red Tide Plan', a lot of people were sacrificed, too. When the Red Tide Plan was activated three months ago, our intelligence network in the Blood Demon Sector was already on the brink of destruction.
"However, the remaining members of the 'Falcon Squad' did send back some critical intelligence. The most important one is that Li Yao sabotaged the Eye of Blood Demon, stopped the beast tide, and saved the capital city!"
Many Cultivators did not know the news yet. They immediately exclaimed in shock.
"Wait. Didn't Li Yao betray the Blood Demon Sector? Why is it that he sabotaged the Eye of Blood Demon now? "
"Can the news be confirmed? What the hell is going on?! "
"So, the beast tide invasion in the capital city was stopped by Li Yao? Then, he is a well-deserved hero of the Special Federation. Why is he being hunted? "
"Director Lu, aren't you contradicting yourself?"
Even Ding Ling Dong and Professor Mo Xuan were slightly dazed, not understanding what Lu Zui was getting at.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Shua! Shua! Shua! On the light beam behind Lu Zui, quite a few fuzzy pictures were displayed, all of which were Li Yao's battle in the Eye of Blood Demon!
"The information of the Falcon Squad has been confirmed by multiple sources," Lu Zui said. "More than three months ago, Li Yao indeed sabotaged the Eye of Blood Demon!
"However, 'Li Yao is a hero' and 'Li Yao is the Blood Devil' are not contradictory. Fellow Cultivators from the Flying Star Sector, especially my young friend Wu Mayan from Iron Plateau, you must have a deep impression of the last Blood Devil, Yan Xibei. Wasn't Yan Xibei a great hero of Iron Plateau who saved his compatriots countless times?"
Wu Mayan was too young to be qualified to participate in the meeting. He was only here as' Li Yao's first disciple '. Now that he was asked by Lu Zui, he could not help but blush, not knowing whether he should nod or shake his head.
Lu Zui did not expect to get an answer from him, either. He simply went on. "According to the incomplete intelligence, this is the truth that we have analyzed.
"When he first entered the Blood Demon Sector, Li Yao was not completely swallowed by the Blood Devil. He was still in a stalemate with the Blood Devil. He even had the upper hand and kept his soul and his will.
"In such a state, Li Yao was naturally defending the interests of the Tian Yuan Realm and trying to sabotage the invasion plan of the Blood Demon Sector!
"Therefore, the battle in the Eye of Blood Demon took place!
"However, the Blood Devil was obviously a terrifying existence that even Li Yao was wary of. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left us such a letter.
"In his normal state, Li Yao might have been able to suppress the Blood Devil. But what about after the fierce battles in the Eye of Blood Demon?
"It must be noted that a lot of demons were gathered in the Eye of Blood Demon at that time. Li Yao was probably faced with dozens of demon emperors!
"What if the Blood Devil took advantage of his weakness and occupied his body when he was heavily wounded by the demon emperors and his soul was greatly damaged?
"That is to say, when he destroyed the Eye of Blood Demon, he was still the real Li Yao and a hero of the Federation!
"However, in that battle, this great hero sacrificed everything for the sake of his country and fell!"
"After the battle, the Blood Devil swallowed his soul and occupied his body, turning him into another evil being!"
Lu Zui's words raised another round of whispers. Wu Mayan was dumbfounded. Professor Mo Xuan shook his head quickly. Xie Anan covered her face and cried miserably. Ding Ling Dong, on the other hand, gritted her teeth so hard that the fire on her head seemed to be frozen!
"Director Lu, what evidence do you have for your claim?"
Luoxingzi, the leader of the Cultivators from the Flying Star Sector, was not moved at all.
On the light beam behind Lu Zui, dozens of pictures were displayed again. Some of them were pictures of Li Yao triggering the 'Cell Obliteration Cannon' with bone spurs and lenses growing out of his arms. Some of them were pictures of Li Yao talking and laughing with other demon emperors such as Jin Tuyi. Some of them were pictures of Li Yao and Jin Xinyue together.
In the pictures, Li Yao and Jin Xinyue were quite close to each other. Perhaps because of the angle, they looked rather intimate. Jin Xinyue's attitude was so attentive that it bordered on flattery, as if she were a slave serving her master.
"Jin Tuyi, the commander-in-chief of the Coalition Army of Demons, must be no stranger to you.
"His daughter, Jin Xinyue, the most dreadful witch in the Pantheon of Demons, has been heard by many of you, too.
