Wutian finally understood what was going on when he saw the young lady. A mocking smirk appeared at the corner of his lips.
It was Xuan Yunyu.
Xuan Yunyu must have known about Du Yuan and the rest's scheme since she told Elder Xing Mi about Su Ying.
Let's take a step back.
Even if Xuan Yunyu had no idea about that, the fact that she was a spy in Tianbaoge Hall was enough to make the two leaders of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance speechless.
"Guys, I'd like to see what you have to say next."
Su Chengshan smirked and said to Di Li while clasping his fists, "Sir, this lady was ordered by Elder Xing Mi of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance to be a spy in Tianbaoge Hall for hundreds of years to find out about my daughter, Su Ying. Coincidentally, she left Tianbaoge Hall today and became the managing elder of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance …"
"Alright, that's enough. I know what to do now."
Di Li waved and looked at the two leaders of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. He said expressionlessly, "Although the four elders are dead, it doesn't mean that we can't find out the truth. Ye Ming, Su Chengshan, and Gu Yi have unlimited potential. We can't perform a soul search on them by force. However, Xuan Yunyu is just a nobody. We can perform a soul search on her by force. We'll find out who's right and who's wrong."
"Soul search by force?"
Wutian frowned.
Soul search by force was not a joke because those who had their souls searched would become idiots if they were lucky. Those who were severely injured would die on the spot. Under normal circumstances, very few people would do that.
Naturally, he was not sympathizing with Xuan Yunyu. He was just lamenting that the weak were worse than ants in the eyes of the powerful.
Xuan Yunyu had just come in. Before she could figure out what was going on, she was about to perform a soul search on her. She was so scared that her face turned pale and she fell onto the ground weakly.
Niu Suoming recalled his aura and said after a moment of silence, "I agree, but if what Ye Ming said is true, what are you going to do?"
Di Li said calmly, "There are countless treasures in Tianbaoge Hall. If it's really our fault, not only will I kill Su Chengshan and Gu Yi myself, I'll even give Ye Ming a godly herb to repair his dantian."
The purple-robed woman agreed, "I have no objections."
Su Chengshan and Wutian looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders at the same time. They looked completely indifferent.
"Right, if the truth is as we say, what will the two of you do?" Wutian asked calmly.
"Hmph, if that's really the case, you can do whatever you want with me!"
Niu Suo Ming snorted coldly.
Pang Jinjia had no objections.
It was because they believed in Ye Ming. Since he dared to choose the sea of waste gas, it would definitely not be fake.
"For the sake of fairness, the four of us will attack at the same time." Di Li said.
"Alright." Pang Jinjia nodded.
Suddenly!
Four powerful divine senses appeared and surged into Xuan Yunyu's head.
Immediately, Xuan Yunyu let out a shrill scream.
Bloody wounds appeared on her pretty face and head like spiderwebs. Blood gushed out crazily and dyed her body and the ground red. It was a terrifying scene!
Three breaths later, Xuan Yunyu stopped screaming and fell into a pool of blood with a thud!
'She brought this upon herself!'
Wutian sighed internally.
The four powerhouses were all perfected Supreme Saint overlords with monstrous strength. Xuan Yunyu was merely a deacon elder. How could she withstand the four of them searching her soul at the same time?
Without a doubt, she died tragically on the spot!
At that moment, the four powerhouses retracted their divine senses.
The purple-robed woman returned to her seat and glanced at Pang Jinjia and Niu Suoming with a mocking gaze.
Di Li took two steps back and his expression was as dark as water. A dense killing intent gradually spread out from him!
Pang Jinjia and Niu Suoming also had gloomy expressions. They clenched their fists tightly and their eyes were filled with killing intent and rage!
Of course, their killing intent was not targeted at Di Li but Ye Ming!
'Seems like the outcome is already decided. However, why didn't they mention the peacock egg and the Peacock King after talking for so long? Don't they know?' Wutian lowered his head and pondered.
"Damn bastards!"
Suddenly, Pang Jinjia roared.
Wutian looked up and saw Pang Jinjia waving his hand. Elemental power gushed out and crushed the dead Xuan Yunyu's body into powder. Not even a drop of blood was left as if she had evaporated!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, there was the sound of something tearing through the air.
Everyone in the room looked over and realized that Ye Ming, who had already escaped from the sea of waste, had turned into a stream of light and escaped through the window!
That speed did not seem like someone who had crippled himself!
In fact, Ye Ming had indeed crippled himself earlier. However, he had pretended to be unconscious and consumed a Heavenly Spirit Herb in time after falling to the ground. How terrifying was the effect of a Heavenly Spirit Herb?
Even though it had only been a dozen breaths, he had already mostly recovered.
Initially, he wanted to use this method to gain everyone's sympathy and deceive everyone to kill Wutian and Su Chengshan.
However, he never expected that Xuan Yunyu would be there too.
When Pang Jinjia attacked in rage, he knew that his lie had been exposed, so he had no choice but to escape immediately.
However, with the four giants here, did he really have a chance to escape?
"Bastard, how dare you lie to me? Get back here!"
Niu Soming roared and a terrifying aura erupted. It surged out like a torrent and imprisoned Ye Ming in the void!
"Explode!"
At this moment, Ye Ming chose to self-destruct the ninth tribulation transcending holy weapon without hesitation.
"Hmph!"
However, right at this moment, the violet robed woman grunted coldly, and then she flicked her sleeve. A strand of supreme might surged into appearance, and it enveloped an area of 5,000km. The destructive force of the explosion didn't even have the chance to spread out before it vanished without a trace, and it didn't cause the slightest ripple in the surroundings!
Bang!
Ye Ming was forcefully pulled back by Niu Soming and fell heavily to the ground. He hurriedly got up and knelt at Niu Soming's feet, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"You still want to escape after causing such trouble for me?"
Niu Soming stepped on Ye Ming's leg and elemental power surged. Accompanied by a painful cry, his entire thigh was twisted into a bloody mist!
"Sir, I won't dare anymore. Please spare my life …"
Ye Ming ignored the pain and begged bitterly.
However, Niu Soming did not listen to him at all. He attacked furiously and broke Ye Ming's limbs, stomped on his head and shattered his body, leaving only his Essence Spirit and soul.
Wutian was shocked when he saw this.
Niu Soming lived up to his name. Be it his heart or his methods, he was like a reaper!
Ye Ming's Essence Spirit was still begging for mercy.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Niu Soming waved his hand and a raging fire burned.
In the fire, the Essence Spirit howled and his soul fled in all directions. However, he could not escape the range of the fire.
In the end, his Essence Spirit and soul were burned to ashes. It could be said that his soul was truly destroyed and he did not even have the chance to reincarnate!
With a wave of his hand, Niu Soming dispersed the fire and turned to look at the purple-robed woman and Di Li. For a moment, he did not know what to say.
It was the same for Pang Jinjia.
Di Li said expressionlessly, "Don't think that it's over just because you don't say anything. I'm not afraid to tell you that if you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, I'll report it to Lord Man and get him to deal with this matter personally. If necessary, I'll even ask Lord Man to make all Tianbaoge Hall in the North Region terminate their transactions with the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance!"
Both of their expressions changed when they heard that.
"I'll also inform Lord Heavenly General and ask him to uphold justice," The purple-robed woman said.
Pang Jinjia and Di Li's pupils constricted and were filled with fear.
If that were to happen in the end, the people above would probably burn them to ashes!
Pang Jinjia said, "Just tell me, what do we have to do to calm this matter down?"
"Calm?"
Di Li sneered. "You've already violated the Celestial realm's taboo this time. If this matter is exposed or reaches the ears of Tengoku's General Pavilion Master, Tianbaoge Hall will definitely break the balance that has been maintained for countless years and join forces with the Celestial Court to fight the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance to the end. Do you think that the two of you can calm this matter down?"
"Nothing is impossible in this world. As long as you say it, I'll do my best to satisfy you."
Niu Soming said with a tone that sounded like he was begging for mercy.
He had to do this. If this matter was exposed, Tianbaoge Hall and the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance would definitely fall out. When that time comes, they would side with the Celestial Court. For the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance, it would be a disaster.
At that time, the two of them, who were the fuse, would really have no way out.
After pondering for a while, Di Li said lightly, "Fine, since we've worked together for so many years, I might as well give you some face. Su Chengshan, Gu Yi, you've lost the most in this matter. You can do whatever you want."
Whoosh!!
Pang Jinjia and Niu Soming looked at Wutian and Su Chengshan in unison.
Their eyes were not as cold as before. They were full of murderous intent and a trace of pleading.
"Let's make them suffer."
The purple-robed woman said telepathically.
Wutian nodded slightly, looked at the two, and said with a smile, "Seniors, just give me one hundred Ninth Tribulation Transcending Sacred Weapons and one million Spiritual Essences. How about it? Am I very easy to satisfy?"
As soon as he said this, several people looked at Wutian, their faces full of shock.
Even Su Chengshan was the same.
The two burly men from Tianbaoge Hall who brought Xuan Yunyu here directly opened their mouths in anger. Their mouths were open enough to stuff an egg.
"Is it still too little?"
Wutian said innocently.
Hearing this, everyone present could not help but roll their eyes.
For a Demonic Weapon, ten Tribulation Transcending Sacred Weapons and ten thousand Spiritual Essences were already the limit.
But this kid wanted one hundred Sacred Weapons and one million Spiritual Essences at once. He even added that he was very easy to satisfy. Was he trying to anger Pang Jinjia and Niu Soming to death?
Shameless, it seemed that he could not be this shameless!
In order to prevent Wutian from talking nonsense and making a fool of himself, the purple-robed woman directly stated the conditions. She would give Wutian and Su Chengshan ten Ninth Tribulation Transcending Sacred Weapons and ten thousand Spiritual Essences as compensation, and this matter would be dropped.
Su Chengshan naturally had no objection.
Although Pang Jinjia and Niu Soming were very unwilling, they could only do as they were told. They took out all their savings from their space bracelets and then left with their tails between their legs.
Under Di Li's orders, Wutian and Su Chengshan also left, while Di Li himself stayed.
But what made Wutian extremely unhappy was that the ten Tribulation Transcending Sacred Weapons and ten thousand Spiritual Essences all went into the purple-robed woman's pocket. He did not get a single thing, and worked for nothing.
Before leaving, the purple-robed woman secretly told him not to mention the Peacock King and the Peacock Eggs to outsiders.
She also said that she would ask someone to find the whereabouts of Gongsun Haoshu and the other four.
Wutian could not help but want to laugh at her on the spot, but considering the gap between the two of them, he could only reluctantly suppress this thought.
He sighed in his heart. People under the eaves really had to bow their heads!
