"Young Master …"
"Yan 'er …"
"Po Yi …"
"Xiao Ying 'er?"
The moment they saw the four stone tablets, the leaders of the four clans almost all had the same reaction, which was to blurt out.
The person tied to the stone tablets was the Young Master they had been searching for!
If they had seen these four people a month ago, they would have felt indescribably gratified. However, now that they had seen them so easily, an inexplicable and complicated feeling rose in their hearts … After all, they had really thought that these people were dead. Otherwise, there was no reason to explain why Di Liu had not mentioned anything about them when they had gone to the Turbulent Flow Sea with the Immortal General and the others. Also, they could not explain why the Young Master had refused to meet them when they had repeatedly come to cause trouble. His Immortal Envoys and advisors also looked like they had lost their backbone. Moreover, they could not see any signs of life in these four people …
To put it bluntly, the reason why they kept saying that they wanted an explanation was because they thought that they were dead!
The dignified marquises of Great Scarlet Sky had their successors die for no reason. Naturally, they had to pretend that nothing had happened. Moreover, they did not care who was in the right and who was in the wrong, nor did they care how these people had died. They only believed that Di Liu was related to the death of the Four Sons of Great Scarlet Sky, so they had come to demand an explanation and to win back face for the forces behind them!
It had been more than a month since they had caused trouble, but they really did not think much about finding the people back!
This was because they had previously deduced that as long as these juniors were not dead, they would definitely be shown in the divinatory image. However, they could not find any trace of them in the divinatory image. Logically speaking, there were only two possibilities. Either these people were dead and had completely disappeared, or they had reached a place that was isolated from the real world and had lost all contact with the real world. The second possibility was basically impossible. No matter how brilliant a small world was, it was impossible to completely isolate the real world!
It was precisely because they were certain that Fang Xing had killed their young masters that they were furious and wanted an explanation!
After all, everyone knew that even if our Young Master had offended you by participating in the Battle of the Martial Monarch Prince, with our identities and status, you could not kill them. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to having a falling out with us!
But when Fang Xing revealed the person they were looking for and demanded an explanation from them, their anger and confidence immediately turned into indescribable awkwardness and panic. The gazes of the people from all directions all turned to look at the bound young master on the stone tablet. Their hearts were filled with shock and worry. So much so that after the shout, there was a long period of silence!
At this moment, Fang Xing, who had completely grasped the initiative, sneered in his heart and was secretly furious.
In fact, when he spared their lives, he wanted to use them to gain some potential. However, something went wrong in his cultivation. Unknowingly, a month had passed, and it had been delayed until today. The delay caused the five forces to misunderstand his intention and come to cause trouble for him recklessly. At this moment, he released these four people. Looking at the shocked and angry expressions of these arrogant old men, he was secretly delighted!
"Hehe, these four bastards and a red-haired bastard from Seven Concealing Heavens dared to collaborate with Prince Lieyang and Nie Kuang Yi to assassinate me when I was quelling the rebellion in the Turbulent Sea. In the end, they overestimated their abilities and were captured by me. Previously, I had been cultivating in seclusion and only recently had time to properly interrogate them. Although they did not explain clearly why they wanted to assassinate me, they admitted to assassinating me. I am really curious, what do you think?"
Looking at his sinister expression, the expressions of the people from the four forces changed drastically!
"Do you really not know why they wanted to assassinate you?"
They cursed in their hearts. With their status, they naturally knew the intention of their clans to get close to Emperor Shi. They also knew that these young masters had helped Emperor Shi to show their sincerity. They believed in the assassination itself …
But even if they believed it, could they bring it out and talk about it?
Not to mention them, even Emperor Shi himself would not dare to openly say that he wanted to kill his own younger brother!
Moreover, everyone had a mouth, they could say whatever they wanted. If Di Liu believed that they were sent by Emperor Shi, it would be fine. However, if he insisted that the young masters wanted to assassinate him and it was the intention of their clans and sects, then the five forces would have a huge headache …
Assassinating a Emperor's son for no reason, was this a rebellion?
"It's not confirmed yet, Emperor's son, be careful with your words!"
A white-robed old immortal from Dark Frost Sky suddenly stood up with a solemn expression and said in a cold voice, "We didn't expect that Bingyan was really in the hands of Emperor's son, and that she had been detained for a month. Just now, Emperor said that she was captured by you when she was trying to assassinate you. This can only be considered a one-sided story. Not to mention that the Ice Clan of Dark Frost Sky has always been loyal to the Scarlet Emperor, it's impossible for us to assassinate him. Even if she really admitted it … Emperor's son, you can easily force her to admit it by torturing her, right?"
"That's right, Emperor's son, isn't this too much? You said that they were suppressed by you when they were trying to assassinate you, so why didn't you hand them over earlier? Why did you drag it out until now? And looking at the wounds on their bodies, they must have suffered a lot under your hands. Not to mention forcing them to admit to the assassination, even threatening their lives to make them admit to assassinating the Scarlet Emperor would work, wouldn't it? "
"Emperor's son, since they are in your hands, please return them to us. After we interrogate them, we will naturally know what is right and wrong!"
"My poor little Ying 'er, how much have you suffered …"
Following the white-robed old man's words, the expressions of the leaders of the four great forces changed. Some people directly refuted Fang Xing's words, saying that his words were untenable. Even if these people's confessions were obtained through torture, some people scolded Fang Xing for making false accusations, and some people directly demanded for them to pay them back. The Great Elder of the Meng Clan was so distressed that he began to cry out in pain …
To be honest, they were certain that Di Liu had used torture, because they didn't believe that their young masters would be so stupid as to admit to assassinating him so easily. They didn't even believe that they were actually caught during the assassination, because they didn't want to be used by Di Shi from the very beginning. Assassinating Di Liu was just to show that they were close to him, and to show their support for Di Shi. These young masters couldn't really assassinate Di Liu themselves, because the person they had set their eyes on was Prince Fierce Sun, who didn't have any power behind him …
Of course, the madman Nie Kuang Yi was more suitable!
Therefore, they believed that the truth of the matter was that Di Liu had discovered that these young masters were standing against him, so he had captured them without any concrete evidence, then spent a whole month to force them to confess!
To a certain extent, their guesses were not far from the truth!
"You want people?"
Fang Xing's expression changed. He slightly raised his ten fingers, and the four stone tablets immediately flew behind him. He then sat on the armchair, his expression sinister and murderous. His eyes stared at the various expressions on the faces of the people present. He sneered and said, "Is it so difficult to determine whether or not they tried to assassinate me, and whether or not I wrongly accused them? Hehe, the three Immortal Sovereigns of the Great Scarlet Sky Lineage should have such a method, right? Why don't we just hand them over to the three Immortal Sovereigns and let them find a way to find the truth? "
"You dare?"
"How can the soul of an Upper Immortal be extracted and refined?"
The people of the various forces all turned pale and shouted loudly.
Not to mention the fact that they were guilty, they did not dare to let Fang Xing hand over the people to the three Immortal Sovereigns of the Great Scarlet Sky. Even if they were very confident, they could not do such a thing. A Primordial Unity Supreme Immortal's soul was one. If their soul was really extracted, they would become a cripple …
"Hehe, it's fine. If the soul extraction proves that they are innocent, I will compensate you with a few Upper Immortals!"
Fang Xing smiled, as if he found this very interesting.
"Even Upper Immortals can compensate?"
"Don't make trouble, Imperial Prince …"
For a moment, the scene was a mess, and the people of the five forces were a little confused.
"All of you, shut up!"
Amidst the noise, the smiling Fang Xing's face suddenly turned cold, and he slammed his palm heavily on the table. The huge force caused the huge palace to tremble, and the stone table was smashed into powder. A deep gully appeared on the ground below, extending all the way out of the palace. The Immortals in the palace were also startled, and suddenly fell silent. Countless pairs of eyes turned to look at him.
"Hehe, whether these people tried to assassinate me or not, and what role they played in the secret fight between me and Emperor Shi, you all know very well. Don't play dumb in front of me. Back in the Sea of Turbulence, I could have killed them easily. The reason why I kept them alive was to give you a warning. If I hand them over to the three Immortal Sovereigns, do you really think that they have no way to find out the truth? You scheming families, do you really think that you can benefit from the conflict between me and Emperor Shi without paying any price? "
Hearing Fang Xing's words, the people of the major forces fell silent at the same time.
After some people had exposed the truth, even they, as slippery as they were, could not continue to play dumb.
"Then … what is your plan, Imperial Prince?"
After a long silence, the eagle-nosed man from the Nine Ridge Phoenix Heaven suddenly asked softly.
"My plan, of course, depends on how sincere you are!"
Fang Xing sneered, spread his fingers, and then clenched them tightly, as if he had grasped something. His eyes were cold!
