However, regardless of whether Yan Chen had something on them, they could only deny it now.
Wutian showed a confused expression and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by tipping off? What spy? Why don't I understand? "
Yan Chen smiled coldly, "Still pretending? Let me ask you, why were we ambushed by the Kunpeng Race's First Elder and hundreds of Primeval Venerate ferocious beasts the moment we entered the God Burial Mountain Range? How did they know that we would head to the God Burial Mountain Range? "
The beautiful woman said, "That's right. If you had not tipped them off, how would our whereabouts have been exposed?"
Wutian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.
It was not hard to tell from their words that the two of them did not have anything on him.
The reason why the two of them said that was to shift the blame and drag him down.
"How naive!"
Wutian mumbled to himself and frowned, "You should ask those ferocious beasts about this. Why are you asking me? Why are you blaming me for this? "
"Because you are the only one who has a conflict with us. Who else could it be other than you?" Yan Chen smiled coldly and continued, "If I'm not wrong, you must be trying to make use of those ferocious beasts to get rid of me. That way, you can replace me and become the ruler."
Wutian shook his head. He could not be bothered to continue talking nonsense with Yan Chen. He turned to the Inner Palace Master and brought his fists together, "Palace Master, I finally figured it out. So, Yan Chen and the others wanted me to be the scapegoat. Palace Master, please investigate!"
Yan Chen glanced at the Inner Palace Master and shouted, "Fu Chou, the heavens are watching. You will pay the price for what you have done today sooner or later!"
The beautiful woman said, "Palace Master, Yan Chen and I are speaking the truth. Palace Master, please investigate."
Wutian shook his head and said in disdain, "You are Greater Success Nine Heavens Supremes after all. You should be brave enough to bear the consequences of your own mistakes. If you try to shift the blame like this, even if you have shocking talent, it will be difficult for you to achieve great things."
Yan Chen said furiously, "You …"
Wutian smiled coldly, "What about me? Did I say anything wrong? Or do you really think that I don't know what you're planning? You slandered me in front of the Hall Master and framed me. Wasn't it because you wanted me to take the blame for you and take the opportunity to get rid of me? Yan Chen, and you, a woman with a heart as vicious as a snake and scorpion. Originally, I admired the two of you. However, I never expected that the two of you are actually such people. You are no different from jumping clowns. "
Killing intent surged in Yan Chen's eyes as he said in a sinister voice, "How dare you call me a clown? You are courting death!"
Wutian chuckled and said, "Don't do what you don't want others to know. Just as you said, God is watching what you do. Be careful of retribution."
"I will kill you!"
Yan Chen roared furiously and charged towards Wutian right in front of the Inner Palace Master!
"You dare to act rashly in front of this old man? Who did you borrow your courage from?!"
The Inner Palace Master shouted. He waved his aged hand, and his divine power roared out. Yan Chen was immediately sent flying, and with a bang, he crashed into a stone pillar at the side. He coughed out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned pale!
Yan Chen climbed to his feet in a sorry state and screamed hysterically, "Hall Master, Fu Chou is definitely behind this. Hall Master, please investigate!"
The Inner Hall Hall Master glanced at Wutian, Yan Chen, and the beautiful lady with a frown on his face.
At that moment, he found it hard to believe anyone.
Yan Chen glanced at the Inner Palace Master and transmitted his voice to the beautiful woman, "Don't tell anyone about the deaths of Qi Liang and the others."
The beautiful woman thought to herself, "Can we hide it?"
Yan Chen said, "It doesn't matter if we can hide it or not. As long as we don't mention it, their deaths will have nothing to do with us."
"Alright."
The beautiful woman replied.
"Subordinate Ru Feng requests an audience with the First Hall Master."
However, at that moment, a gentle voice could be heard outside the door.
Everyone looked over and saw a white-robed young man standing outside the door with a bow.
"It's him."
Wutian raised his brow. This was the Five Tribulation divine being that he had made an exception to promote to adjudicator back then.
However, Wutian did not know that the white-robed young man was none other than Di Tian!
The First Hall Master said, "Enter."
Di Tian walked into the ancient castle and stopped beside the First Hall Master. He glanced at Yan Chen who was kneeling on the ground and whispered into the First Hall Master's ears.
"What!"
The First Hall Master's face turned pale as he said in shock and anger, "Are you speaking the truth?"
Di Tian said, "If you don't believe me, First Hall Master, you can check the Earth Phenomenon Token and see if their spirit imprints are still around."
The First Hall Master took out the Earth Phenomenon Token immediately. After checking it, he was stunned. The Earth Phenomenon Token slipped from his hands and fell to the ground with a clang.
When he saw that, the Inner Palace Master frowned. "What happened?"
"Dead. They're all dead."
The First Hall Master murmured as though he had lost his soul.
The Inner Palace Master shouted, "What do you mean they're all dead? Tell me clearly!"
The First Hall Master shuddered and looked at the Inner Palace Master, saying sorrowfully, "The 10 Paragons of the Adjudication Hall and the 9 Paragons of the Disciplinary Hall are all dead!"
"What!"
The Inner Palace Master stood up with disbelief in his eyes!
It was the same for the Third Hall Master.
When Yan Chen and Yan Chen heard that, their anxious hearts were in their throats. They sized up Di Tian from the corner of their eyes and were extremely shocked.
Wutian looked at Di Tian curiously as well.
The First Hall Master continued, "Inner Palace Master, hurry and check if the spirit imprints of the 19 Perfected Paragons of the Inner Palace are still around."
When they heard that, Yan Chen and the beautiful woman were extremely flustered!
The Inner Palace Master took out the Earth Phenomenon Token and was dumbfounded after taking a look!
When he snapped back to his senses, his eyes were bloodshot as he glared at the First Hall Master and said furiously, "Tell me, why did this happen? Why did the 19 of them die? "
The First Hall Master looked at Yan Chen and Yan Chen and said, "You'll have to ask them!"
Whoosh!
The Inner Palace Master and the Third Hall Master looked at the two.
The Inner Palace Master shouted, "Tell me, why did they die!"
Yan Chen and Yan Chen shuddered and looked away, not daring to meet his eyes.
"Since you refuse to speak, I'll read your memories by force!"
The Inner Palace Master was furious. He grabbed at the air and the beautiful woman flew toward him uncontrollably.
The beautiful woman's eyes were filled with fear as she said, "Spare me, Palace Master. I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything …"
The Inner Palace Master loosened his grip and the beautiful woman fell to the ground miserably. The Inner Palace Master looked at her and said coldly, "If you dare to lie again, don't blame me for being merciless!"
"I don't dare," the beautiful woman said hurriedly, "Palace Master, this is what happened …"
Thus, the gorgeous woman told him everything that had happened in full detail.
Yan Chen stood aside quietly and glanced at Wutian and Di Tian with eyes filled with hatred!
After hearing the story, the Third Hall Master said, "In that case, it was Yan Chen who wanted to kill Fu Chou and not Fu Chou who wanted to kill him?"
The beautiful woman nodded and said, "That's right. Yan Chen was worried that Fu Chou would threaten his position, so he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of him. Palace Master, I was confused for a moment and was bewitched by Yan Chen. Please show mercy and spare me this time! "
"Thirty-eight Primes died in a day. How preposterous, how preposterous!"
The Inner Palace Master was filled with grief and anger. He glared at Yan Chen and said furiously, "Not only did you kill so many Primes, you even tried to frame Fu Chou. You even coveted my position as the Inner Palace Master. Yan Chen, what else do you have to say?"
Yan Chen remained silent. It was not that he did not want to defend himself, but he knew that no matter what he said now, it would be useless.
The First Hall Master brought his fists together and said, "Inner Palace Master, Yan Chen thought too highly of himself and acted recklessly. We must punish him severely!"
The Third Hall Master nodded and said, "That's right. If we don't punish him severely, we won't be able to appease our anger!"
The Inner Palace Master glanced at the two Hall Masters, then turned to Wutian and asked, "Fu Chou, what do you think?"
Wutian said coldly, "Yan Chen killed Qi Liang and the other thirty-eight Primes for his own selfish reasons. He deserves to be killed for such a serious crime!"
The Inner Palace Master nodded and said, "This is a serious matter. I still need to discuss it with the Second and Third Masters."
After saying this, he waved his hand and swept up Yan Chen and the beautiful woman before disappearing without a trace.
The First Hall Master looked at the young man in white and waved his hand, "You may leave too!"
"Yes!"
The young man in white replied. He nodded and smiled at Wutian before turning to leave.
After the young man in white left, the First Hall Master sighed and said, "I really did not expect that Yan Chen would do such a ridiculous thing. However, I reckon that he will not die."
"Why?"
Wutian raised his brows.
The Third Hall Master shook his head and said, "Fu Chou, you have not been in the Sacred Palace for long and there are many things that you do not know. Let me tell you, Yan Chen's identity is not simple."
The First Hall Master nodded and said, "That's right. Only a few of us know Yan Chen's true identity."
Wutian frowned and said, "What is his background?"
The First Hall Master said, "Yan Chen is the son of the Second Master."
"What!"
Wutian's expression changed drastically.
Yan Chen was the son of the Second Master?
The First Hall Master said, "The Inner Palace Master knows about this as well. That is why he cannot make a decision on his own."
"Then there is no need to doubt it. Yan Chen will definitely not die," Wutian said with a mocking tone.
The First Hall Master patted Wutian's shoulder and sighed, "I know that you feel very indignant in your heart. However, there is nothing we can do about it. Who asked him to have such a strong backer? Take it easy and try not to provoke him in the future. "
Wutian smiled coldly and said, "With a backer, one naturally has the capital to do whatever they want. They do not even need to carve their names on the stone stele. However, I am weak and alone. What else can I say? What right do I have to say anything? "
"Hah!"
The two Hall Masters exchanged glances and could not help sighing deeply.
The Third Hall Master smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. Yan Chen has caused a huge disaster this time. No matter how much the Second Master dotes on him, he will not bend the law. He will definitely be punished."
"Forget it. The so-called punishment is at most to face the wall and reflect on my mistakes. Goodbye."
Wutian performed a cupped-fist salute. Without waiting for the two Hall Masters to reply, he turned and left with large strides.
Looking at Wutian's back, the Third Hall Master sighed softly, "It looks like this little fellow is feeling very aggrieved in his heart."
The First Hall Master shook his head and said, "No matter who it is, they will feel aggrieved in such a matter."
Indeed, Wutian felt very aggrieved in his heart. He also felt extremely regretful!
If he had known that Yan Chen had such a strong background, he would have gotten Li Tian to kill him no matter what!
