Meng Xuanzhao was shocked. He suddenly thought of a very serious problem!
With his uncle's protection, it wouldn't be a problem for him to kill a disciple without any background in the Dao Sect. However, this matter couldn't be seen in public. If he did it in private and no one questioned it, it would naturally be over. In the cultivation world, human lives weren't valuable most of the time. However, the Dao Sect still had its rules. If this matter was blown up, even his uncle wouldn't be able to handle it, let alone him!
Cold sweat immediately flowed down his forehead. He hurriedly tried to think of an excuse.
However, Fang Xing didn't give him the chance. He said sternly, "Fine. Although I have a grudge with Senior Brother Liu Feng and was harmed badly by him, I never thought of killing him. You Dao Sect's spoiled brats are really amazing. You actually don't value human lives. Such a living person was killed just like that. Meng Xuanzhao, did your uncle teach you to do this? Does the Dao Sect still have rules? "
Meng Xuanzhao was frightened by his shout and staggered a few steps back. Suddenly, he thought of something and said hurriedly, "Nonsense. When did I say that? We're the ones questioning you now. Don't try to slander me … "
"Pa …"
Fang Xing suddenly raised his hand and threw a jade tablet on the stone table. He shouted angrily, "The evidence is here. You still dare to quibble?"
Fang Xing threw out an emerald green jade tablet. It was half the size of a palm and as thick as a finger. There were some inscriptions on it.
This jade tablet was called the 'Sound Sending Talisman'. It was a basic magic tool in the cultivation world.
The so-called basic magic tool referred to a magic tool that was of a very low level. It was widely circulated but could be used frequently.
Its function was also very simple. After spiritual power was injected into it, it could store sound for a certain period of time. Some advanced ones could even store images.
This kind of jade talisman appeared when the cultivators who were contacting each other were too far away and out of the range of the Sound Sending Talisman. The person who sent the message would store their voice in the jade talisman and then pass it to the person being contacted. To put it bluntly, it was like a letter. Of course, sometimes it could also be used to record the surrounding sounds as evidence.
Therefore, when Meng Xuanzhao saw Fang Xing throw out the Sound Sending Talisman, his expression immediately became distorted. The fact that he had used private punishment to beat Liu Feng to death was something that absolutely could not be seen in public. It was fine if he had done it in private, but if it was brought to light, not only would he not be able to escape the sect's punishment, even his uncle would be implicated.
The Dao Sect's outer sect was even a screening place. Only those who stood out in the outer sect and were outstanding could enter the inner sect. Those who were outstanding could be said to have aptitude, wealth, family background, or even martial strength. They could improve their cultivation by robbing others. In short, as long as they could grow, they could enter the inner sect.
However, the outer sect wasn't completely free of taboos. The Dao Sect supported competition among the outer sect disciples, but they didn't like people like Meng Xuanzhao who used underhanded means to eliminate or even kill other outer sect disciples. This was because it was an unfair competition that wasn't allowed by the Dao Sect. If Meng Xuanzhao had killed Liu Feng in a normal fight or even a brawl, the punishment he would receive would be very light. He might be confined for a year. However, if Meng Xuanzhao used underhanded means to kill Liu Feng, he might even be expelled from the sect.
If there was evidence to prove that his uncle had a hand in this matter, then even his uncle's position as an elder would be taken away!
"You … You're actually scheming against me? Give me the jade talisman! "
Meng Xuanzhao's expression was distorted. He suddenly roared in a low voice. His body lengthened, and his fingers turned into claws as he snatched the jade talisman on the table.
Fang Xing smiled coldly and shouted, "You still dare to snatch it by force?"
He immediately jumped up and slapped Meng Xuanzhao with lightning speed.
Meng Xuanzhao never expected Fang Xing to attack so quickly. Moreover, it was a little unexpected, so he didn't block it in time. He was actually slapped hard on his face and was sent flying.
Crack crack crack …
Meng Xuanzhao was directly hit into the Purple Bamboo Forest. He immediately crashed into a patch of Purple Bamboo. The entire space was swept by a strong wind and turned into a mess.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Meng Xuanzhao's followers were instantly shocked. They took out their flying swords and pointed them at Fang Xing from afar. However, they didn't slash at him directly.
Even the dark-faced man looked nervous as he looked at Fang Xing in disbelief.
Meng Xuanzhao's strength wasn't low. He was probably ranked in the entire Blue Cloud Sect's outer sect. However, he was actually sent flying by a slap from Fang Xing?
"Little dog, I'm going to kill you!"
Meng Xuanzhao's face was covered in blood. He was so angry that he almost went crazy. He almost couldn't believe that he was actually sent flying by this little bastard?
He had been pampered since he was young and had never suffered. When he was robbed by the Smoke Bandit previously, he felt so wronged that he almost cried. Today, he was sent flying by a slap from Fang Xing in front of so many people. This hatred was even heavier than when he was robbed. He struggled to jump up as if he was crazy and was about to charge at Fang Xing. However, the dark-faced man suddenly reached out and grabbed him.
"Junior Brother Fang, Senior Brother Meng was just joking and said something wrong. You better not be overbearing. It's better if you hand over the jade talisman!"
The dark-faced man turned around and said to Fang Xing in a deep voice. The jade talisman was related to Meng Xuanzhao's future, so they wouldn't sit idly by.
These words were a warning to Fang Xing that if he didn't hand over the jade talisman, they would attack together.
"Are you kidding me? A human life is at stake, and you call this a joke?"
Fang Xing sneered. He suddenly stood up and jumped onto the stone table. He shouted, "If you're capable, you can try snatching it from my hands!"
As he spoke, he clapped his palms together and circulated the Dragon Capturing Controlling Crane Technique. A formless gravitational force immediately appeared beside him, and a strong airflow whistled and rotated. Those who were standing nearby and pointing their flying swords at him were immediately blown away by this strong wind. The flying swords that were in the air actually broke away from their control. With a "hualala" sound, silver lights flickered, and the flying swords all flew toward Fang Xing.
Meanwhile, Fang Xing clasped his hands together and shouted. He caught all the flying swords in his arms and placed them on the stone table.
"Dragon Capturing Controlling Crane Technique?"
The dark-faced man and the yellow-clothed woman's expressions changed at the same time. They stood up and retreated to a distance of ten meters from Fang Xing.
Their expressions were somewhat hesitant as they looked at Fang Xing in disbelief.
Others might not recognize it, but they were very clear that the technique Fang Xing was using was the basic technique, the Dragon Capturing Controlling Crane Technique.
This technique was also known as the Art of Attraction. It could control the formless gravitational force and could be used for both offense and defense.
Although this technique was also prohibited from being spread into the outer sect, it wasn't as absolute as the Stone Essence Powder. Thus, any outer sect disciple with a little bit of relationship would secretly learn this technique. The dark-faced man, the yellow-clothed woman, and Meng Xuanzhao had all secretly learned this technique before. They even frequently sparred together. However, at this moment, when they saw the Dragon Capturing Technique that Fang Xing was displaying, it was actually much stronger than their own.
"In the outer sect, I've never seen anyone practice the Dragon Capturing Technique to such a level. You … what exactly is your cultivation?"
The yellow-clothed woman's expression suddenly changed as she asked in a deep voice.
Her knowledge could be considered extensive. She knew quite a few outer sect geniuses who practiced the Dragon Capturing Controlling Crane Technique. However, she had never seen anyone in the third layer of Spirit Formation Realm who was able to display such frightening power with the Dragon Capturing Controlling Crane Technique.
Fang Xing laughed, "You guys want to see my cultivation? Sure! "
With a shake of his body, a surge of spiritual pressure was immediately released.
At this moment, a violent pressure was released from his body. Like a wave, it spread in all directions. The disciples were immediately forced to take a step back.
"Fourth layer of Spirit Formation?"
"His cultivation is actually at the fourth layer of Spirit Formation … …"
"How is this possible … … at such a young age, he actually reached the fourth layer of Spirit Formation?"
Everyone's expression changed. It was hard for them to accept this fact.
In the current outer sect, no one had reached this level of cultivation, yet this brat managed to do it?
Damn it, between the third and fourth layer of Spirit Formation Realm, there was a huge gap. Everyone here was at the third or second layer of Spirit Formation Realm, who would be able to deal with him?
No wonder this brat dared to come alone. It turns out that he didn't put them in his eyes at all!
"What, someone dares to snatch the thing in my hands?"
Fang Xing stood on top of the stone table. He was a head taller than the people on the ground. His gaze swept across the crowd as he coldly asked.
Everyone was intimidated by his ferocious aura and immediately took a step back. What a joke, which third layer of Spirit Formation Realm dares to provoke a fourth layer expert?
"You … … you actually … … actually broke through to the fourth layer of Spirit Formation Realm, damn it! You still dare to say that you have nothing to do with the Bewitching Smoke Bandit? Let me ask you, where did you get the Stone Essence Powder to refine the Rank Breaking Dan? "
After a while, Meng Xuanzhao's voice was the first to ring. His face was filled with shock and anger, and his eyes shined.
He accurately discovered something fishy about Fang Xing breaking through to the fourth layer of Spirit Formation Realm!
Breaking through to the fourth layer of Spirit Formation Realm wasn't something that could be done just because one wanted to. To do so, one needed a Rank Breaking Dan. And to refine a Rank Breaking Dan, one needed the Stone Essence Powder!
If this brat had nothing to do with the Bewitching Smoke Bandit, then where did he get the Stone Essence Powder?
