Ao Lie muttered to himself. His hesitation immediately caused Sect Leader Cui's eyes to light up. From an angle that Ao Lie did not notice, Sect Leader Cui gave Yang Chen a very subtle look, indicating that he should strive for more understanding on this matter.
At the end of the day, the dragon puppet had always been in the hands of the Five Elements Sect. This was something that Sect Leader Cui could not deny no matter how much he wanted to. The crime of desecrating the Dragon Clan's corpse, especially the corpse of such a great expert, would definitely land firmly on the Five Elements Sect's head.
In order to obtain the Dragon Clan's understanding, Sect Leader Cui was willing to pay any price so that the Five Elements Sect's legacy would not be severed.
Don't judge the Dragon Clan based on the aura of Ao Lie and another expert. However, the Five Elements Sect would never doubt that the Dragon Clan had the power to destroy the Five Elements Sect. Everything else aside, just the fact that the Dragon Clan had directly seized control of the dragon puppet was enough to send the entire Five Elements Sect to hell.
The relationship between Yang Chen and the Dragon Clan had now become the Five Elements Sect's only lifeline. No matter what, Sect Leader Cui had to fight for it.
During the process of waiting these past few days, Sect Leader Cui had given Yang Chen enough hints. Now, it was time to see how much weight Yang Chen had in the eyes of the Dragon Clan's expert.
When Yang Chen had suggested that the Murong sisters should not be implicated, Ao Lie had pondered for a long time. To Sect Leader Cui, that period of silence was no less than waiting for the final verdict.
After waiting in silence, Ao Lie did not disappoint Sect Leader Cui. He finally nodded and said to Yang Chen, "For your sake, I will not pursue the matter of those five girls. However, the Dragon Clan's corpse cannot be left in your hands. "
This had been made very clear. When Sect Leader Cui heard this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. His heart that had been hanging in his throat also returned to his chest. If the Murong sisters were not pursued, then only the Zhao father and son were left. The Five Elements Sect could be considered to have indirectly avoided a calamity.
The father and son of the Zhao Clan were dead for sure. There was no doubt about that. Even if the Dragon Clan did not make a move, Sect Master Cui and the cultivators of the Five Elements Sect who had been deceived would tear him into pieces.
Not only the father and son of the Zhao Family, but also the trusted subordinates that they had cultivated in the Five Elements Sect for so many years were all implicated. As long as there was a slight proof that they had ill intentions towards the Five Elements Sect, they would immediately be assigned to the father and son of the Zhao Family, and they would never let them go. The internal strife of the Great Sect was definitely not more peaceful than the strife in the Imperial Palace.
These people who were implicated could not escape the fate of death. No one would think that pushing out the Zhao Family's father and son would quell the Dragon Clan's anger. These disciples who had already violated the sect's rules and committed the great crime of treason were to be given to the Dragon Clan as an explanation.
When Ao Lie's gaze turned to Sect Master Cui, he only briefly mentioned how the Five Elements Sect was going to deal with them. Without a second word, Sect Master Cui handed them over.
There were thousands of Five Elements Sect disciples of all cultivation bases. They were executed one by one in front of Yang Chen and Ao Lie. The ferocity and decisiveness of the punishment made the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall tremble with fear.
All the belongings of these executed disciples were not kept by the Five Elements Sect, and everything was handed over to Ao Lie as compensation. At the same time, the Five Elements Sect also offered a considerable amount of wealth as a token of appreciation for the Dragon Clan expert who had not shown up.
"It seems that you are very sincere!" Ao Lie was very satisfied with the way Sect Master Cui dealt with the matter. He gave a comment and finally said something that made Sect Master Cui feel completely at ease. "In that case, for the sake of Yang Chen, I will let this matter go."
When they heard this, all the senior officials of the Five Elements Sect who were present at the scene felt relieved, and their gazes towards Yang Chen were filled with endless gratitude.
The dignified Five Elements Sect, one of the Five Great Dao Sect, had probably never thought that they would personally take action one day and use the lives of their own disciples to ask for someone's forgiveness. However, this matter had happened to them just like that.
"Senior, this junior still has a presumptuous request. I hope that senior will allow it!" Seeing that everything was about to be written off, Yang Chen suddenly spoke.
When they heard that Yang Chen still had a presumptuous request, the hearts of the Five Elements Sect which had just been relieved became anxious again. Some people secretly blamed Yang Chen for being a busybody. What presumptuous request did he have at this time? Since he knew that it was a presumptuous request, why did he have to mention it?
Yang Chen did not shut up because of the criticism of the crowd. He did not have anything that he could not say to Ao Lie, so he directly said, "Senior, can you lend this Dragon Clan magic treasure to my wife for a period of time?"
The so-called Dragon Clan magic treasure naturally referred to the intermediate Golden Immortal dragon puppet which had almost caused the entire Five Elements Sect to fall into a desperate situation. After putting on a show with Ao Lie and Ao Lan for so long, Yang Chen was not willing to end up with nothing.
The moment this request was uttered, all the senior officials of the Five Elements Sect who were listening at the side almost fainted.
What kind of joke was this? That dragon puppet was originally refined from the corpse of the Dragon Clan. Previously, they had worked so hard and paid the price of thousands of lives and countless treasures before the Dragon Clan did not pursue the crime of desecrating the corpse of the Dragon Clan. How did Yang Chen want to die? At this critical moment, he actually brought up the old matter again. Was he not afraid that the Dragon Clan would directly attack him?
The moment Yang Chen finished speaking, Ao Lie immediately released an extremely sharp killing intent which directly enveloped Yang Chen. At the same time, the Dragon Clan expert who had been hiding in the dark and had never appeared also released endless killing intent.
The two killing intents were so ferocious that almost the entire area of the Five Elements Sect was enveloped in it. Countless disciples of the Five Elements Sect were swept by the two killing intents. They could not resist at all and directly fainted.
Only the experts of the Heaven Immortal level could maintain their consciousness. However, they could only maintain their consciousness. Not to mention counterattack, it was already an amazing expert to be able to stand steadily.
Sect Leader Cui and the other senior officials, who were in the center of the storm, were already filled with despair. The good situation had been ruined by a sentence from Yang Chen. At this moment, they already did not know how to evaluate Yang Chen's audacity. The only thing in their mind was how the Five Elements Sect could survive in this catastrophe.
On the contrary, Yang Chen acted like nothing had happened in the face of the undisguised killing intents of the two great experts. It was as if the two almost tangible killing intents were not directed at him at all. He took a sip of wine as if nothing had happened and quietly waited for Ao Lie's answer.
"How do you want to die?" Ao Lie's words sounded sinisterly. He did not hide his desire to attack at all. It was as if he would attack and tear Yang Chen into pieces at any moment.
