Looking down from above at Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun, Nian Chen's eyes virtually seemed about to spew fire.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was as per usual, a hint of a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth as he leisurely waved towards Nian Chen, greeting him, "Oh, 'Eight-Fingered Dragon King', how have you been?"
Everyone on the island was stunned again, and they looked at Nian Chen in astonishment.
Nian Chen's face was livid as he glared at Yan Zhaoge.
At this moment, the others looked at Nian Chen's somewhat stiff hands and were shocked to discover that apart from his left thumb that had been cut off many years ago, Nian Chen was also missing his right index finger!
Now, he was indeed the 'Eight-Fingered Dragon King'. However, no one could laugh. Everyone's gazes shifted back and forth between Yan Zhaoge and Nian Chen as a shocking guess arose within their minds.
The Northern Ocean Clone beside Yan Zhaoge relaxed his clenched fist slightly, bloodred light and golden light surging from within.
It was like an extremely powerful existence was grasped firmly in the hands of the Northern Ocean Clone, unable to move at all.
Everyone was dumbfounded when their guesses were confirmed. "Nian Chen's finger was broken by him?! One of the divine weapons, the Nine Dragon Fingers, was also taken by him?! "
Although they knew that the young man before them was powerful, no one had expected him to be this powerful.
Shen Shicheng's gaze landed on Shen Ying. "Ying 'er, are you alright?"
Shen Ying shook her head, while Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "Your daughter was not harmed at all. Instead, it was my junior apprentice-nephew who was injured rather badly."
A Blood Dragon Sect Elder snorted, "He has killed so many of our Blood Dragon Sect's disciples, and he still has the face to say this?"
Yan Zhaoge was shocked, "That's right, so many people besieging a single junior apprentice-nephew of mine, but in the end, a whole bunch of them were killed instead."
That Blood Dragon Sect Elder's eyes bulged, "You …"
"Me what?" Yan Zhaoge ignored him as his gaze fell on Shen Ying, "This Miss Shen, while Nian Wei did not bully you, did my junior apprentice-nephew Shi Jun bully you?"
Shen Ying hesitated as she lowered her head, the Blood Dragon Sect martial practitioners beside her all looking nervously at her.
Not waiting for her to speak, Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "If my junior apprentice-nephew bullied you, where did he bully you? Although you're the victim, you can't speak without evidence, right? "
"There are so many people here. You can tell us what kind of damage you've suffered. There are many people who can verify it for you."
The Blood Dragon Sect's Elder Wang Qin said coldly, "The facts have already proven that it was your junior apprentice-nephew who abducted our sect's disciple Shen Ying. The other disciples of our sect attempted to stop him, yet were killed and injured by your junior apprentice-nephew!"
"Why did your Martial Nephew kidnap Shen Ying? You'll have to ask him."
"Shen Ying is fine now. I can only say that it's because she was discovered in time. Who knows what your Martial Niece is thinking? It's just that I haven't had the time to do it yet. "
"But that doesn't change the fact that he kidnapped and killed people!"
Yan Zhaoge looked rather amusedly at Wang Qin, "What is the truth? Is it just based on your mouth alone?"
Wang Qin raised his voice, saying, "I know that you have great strength and outstanding talent, having reached the Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster level at such a young age."
"You even refined the remains of the Northern Underworld Martial Saint, Zhuang Kun, into a clone. But just because you're strong, do you think you can cover up for your martial nephew's murder?"
"You must know that there is justice in this world. If you kill me today and seal my mouth, can you kill everyone under the heavens and seal the mouths of the myriad lifeforms under the heavens?"
Wang Qin looked solemnly at Yan Zhaoge, "While you are strong, you probably don't have that ability, right?"
"Your sudden appearance shocked the entire Vast Ocean World. If you say that rampaging beneath the heavens and causing all heroes to bow down to you, suppressing everyone to the point of not daring to make a sound is your goal, you are really underestimating the people of this world!"
Yan Zhaoge's expression was tranquil as he was not vexed, instead looking rather interestedly at Wang Qin.
The other party's words were clearly trying to pit this outsider who had suddenly appeared against the entire Vast Ocean World.
Yan Zhaoge said neither hurriedly nor slowly, "This Yan is not underestimating the people of this world. Still, some people are indeed hard for me to think highly of, such as your sect."
The people of the Blood Dragon Sect all looked at Yan Zhaoge with hostility. Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "Don't look at me like that. Face is given by others, but you have to fight for it yourself."
He waved his hand, gesturing for Shi Jun to come to his side before patting his shoulder, "The truth of the matter is actually only known by these two people involved. And now, they are also each sticking to their own version of the matter."
"I naturally believe my junior apprentice-nephew's words." Yan Zhaoge swivelled his head to look at Wang Qin and the others, "Nian Wei is already dead. At the end of the day, he was the grandson of your sect's longtime disciple, Elder Chen. Whether it is for his reputation or for the reputation of your sect as a whole, Shen Ying no longer pursued the matter, instead distorting the truth and pointing the spearhead at my junior apprentice-nephew."
Shen Ying pursed her lips tightly as the other Blood Dragon Sect martial practitioners all roared furiously.
Yan Zhaoge ignored them as he continued, "Still, she could only clean up Nian Wei at most. Wanting to slander my junior apprentice-nephew, what did she slander? At most, she only took her away. Other than that, my junior apprentice-nephew did not touch a single hair on her. "
"If we really have to follow your logic, perhaps it can be explained this way?"
"My junior apprentice-nephew brought your disciple Shen Ying along with him as a witness without harming a single hair on her."
"Witness what? Witness how useless the other disciples of your sect are. "
Yan Zhaoge said casually, "Not being able to beat my junior apprentice-nephew in a one-on-one fight, not even being able to beat her in a group fight, losing her life one after another. Your sect really should properly reflect on how it teaches its disciples. Otherwise, it is too easy for them to die outside."
"What do you think of this?"
The people of the Blood Dragon Sect were all greatly enraged, even Wang Qin's entire body trembling with rage.
The spectating sects all exchanged glances, their expressions all rather complex.
Those of Water Crystal Palace did not speak, while the leading Elder of the Spirit Returning Sect chuckled, "This can also be explained."
At this point, the truth was becoming more and more unclear. However, the spectators were not fools as many guesses gradually arose within their hearts.
The entire matter gradually became a mess.
They might not believe Shi Jun's words, but even with Shen Ying's testimony, they were still filled with doubt towards the Blood Dragon Sect's words.
Shi Jun's breathing eased slightly. While he was unable to truly regain his innocence and expose the lies of Nian Wei and the Blood Dragon Sect, he finally felt like he had seen the light of day after the clouds had been dispelled at this moment.
While he felt rather unresigned, he knew that with Shen Ying not personally telling the truth, this was probably already the best possible outcome.
At the very least, if he still roamed the Vast Ocean World in the future, he would not have to bear the stigma of being a rapist.
Shi Jun had just wanted to speak when Yan Zhaoge's sound transmission suddenly resounded by his ear, "Don't speak. This is only the beginning."
Nian Chen who had been silent ever since he had appeared, just staring fixatedly at Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun, now said coldly, "Youngsters who do not know the height of the heavens and the boundlessness of the earth will indeed die very easily."
His voice resembled the roar of a vicious dragon as it shook the ears of everyone present to the point of ringing.
Nian Chen directly clawed towards Shi Jun!
"This old man's grandson has died; this enmity is irreconcilable! This old man will use your heart as a sacrifice to Wei 'er's spirit in heaven, "Nian Chen's gaze was cruel to the extreme," No one can stop me! "
A figure flickered, appearing between Nian Chen, Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun. It was precisely Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone!
"As opposed to fighting, it is actually more beneficial for you to wrangle verbally." Yan Zhaoge said in an indifferent tone, "I have come to retrieve those remaining fingers that I left on your hand."
"You dare to touch my Martial Nephew? You think you can do it?"
