Patriarch, what is wrong? Why do you look so pale?
Patriarch, please do not be angry just yet. Let us first root out that scum of the Ancient Clan!
No matter who it is, they must absolutely be severely punished without mercy.
Who exactly is it! Step forward and confess your crimes!
Look how furious the Patriarch is! Once we find this person, they must be expelled from the Ancient Clan and pay with their life!
As soon as these words were spoken.
The crowd of the Ancient Clan immediately began chanting together.
Expel them from the clan, pay with their life!
Expel them from the clan, pay with their life!
...
At this moment, Gu Yang seemed to age decades.
There was not a trace of color on his middle-aged face.
He felt that his life would not last until the next time he regained his youth.
This time, he would pay with his life.
He would shoulder all the sins for the Ancient Clan.
He looked up and took a deep look at the other eight people who knew the truth about this matter.
With just that one glance, the eight of them understood Gu Yang's intention.
That look was telling them.
After his death, someone needed to take his place and continue protecting the Ancient Clan.
Then, Gu Yang spoke in a hoarse voice:
This matter...
Just as he was about to take the blame for everything.
Ye Xing suddenly stepped forward and interrupted:
This matter has absolutely nothing to do with the Ancient Clan!
This is entirely a conspiracy by the Ye family to destroy the Ancient Clan's reputation.
His hoarse voice echoed throughout the venue.
Gu Yang was stunned.
The people of the Ancient Clan were also stunned.
As for the members of the Ye family, they were completely dumbfounded.
Ye Xing continued:
I am Ye Xing of the Ye family.
Everyone knows that the Ancient Clan has lived in the Kunlun Mountains all year round and has pure, simple customs.
How could they possibly do something so inhuman?
It is all a conspiracy by the Ye family to curry favor with the Flood Dragon and smear the Ancient Clan!
Hearing Ye Xing's words, the unaware members of the Ancient Clan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
I knew it! Our Ancient Clan could never do such a thing.
How could anyone from the Ancient Clan commit such a vicious act?
The Ye family deserves to die!
To attempt to ruin the innocence of the Ancient Clan, how despicable!
...
The Ancient Clan members were filled with righteous indignation.
Gu Yang was completely dumbfounded.
He knew that everything Ye Xing said was a lie.
However, he had absolutely no intention of refuting it.
A trace of relief even sprouted in his heart.
As cold sweat rolled down his brow.
Gu Yang finally realized.
That he, a dignified Peak Martial Sage, had unknowingly soaked his clothes in sweat.
Ye Xing's words sent a shiver straight down Ye Wujiang's spine.
He roared in panic:
Ye Xing! Are you crazy?
Do you know what you are saying?
Ye Xing's eyes were dark and ruthless.
He threw a glance at Ye Wujiang.
And thought to himself:
I do not know if I am crazy or not!
But you guys are about to go crazy!
Ye Wujiang could not help but charge toward Ye Xing.
At this moment, he wished he could slap Ye Xing to death.
Once this matter was pinned on the Ye family.
The entire Ye family would be finished.
Even if the Ancient Clan let them off and gave them a way out.
The Ye family would become public enemies.
Their fate would be even worse than that of human traffickers.
Who could tolerate a family that fed children to an evil dragon?
By then, their businesses in the overseas administrative regions would likely face absolute destruction.
Watching Ye Wujiang charge at him.
A flash of resentment passed over Ye Xing's face.
He shouted to the Ancient Clan members beside him:
Stop him quickly, he wants to silence the witness.
Hearing Ye Xing's words.
A group of Ancient Clan members immediately blocked his path.
How dare you try to commit murder right in front of us!
Thanks to this young brother stepping forward, the Ancient Clan was saved from being falsely accused.
Ye family, prepare to face the wrath of the Ancient Clan!
Patriarch, let us wipe out this vicious Ye family!
...
Seeing Ye Xing being protected by the Ancient Clan.
Ye Wujiang was completely dumbfounded.
He knew that if he did not handle this well, the Ye family might meet their end right then and there.
Yet, he did not dare speak up and say that Gu Yang was the one who ordered him to do it.
He shouted:
He is talking nonsense!
Our Ye family is also innocent.
This... this... this was all done by Ye Long alone!
At this critical moment.
He once again wanted Ye Long to take the fall for the family, just like Ye Xing had done in the past.
Unfortunately, Ye Long was not Ye Xing.
He was not a coward who would just swallow his grievances for the sake of the greater good.
Ye Long roared on the spot:
You are speaking nonsense, you were the one who told me to do it!
You even said it was arranged by the Patriarch of the Ancient Clan!
Furthermore, when the Flood Dragon was feeding, it even said it was very satisfied with the Ancient Clan's offerings!
As soon as these words came out.
Ye Xing knew that the Ye family was absolutely doomed today.
No matter who came, they could not save the Ye family.
The outcome was self-evident.
Hearing Ye Long's words, Ye Wujiang's heart instantly ran cold.
This damn unfilial son, he actually does not know how to prioritize the big picture and protect the family!
At this moment, Gu Yang secretly wiped away his sweat.
Although he was a Peak Martial Sage, he had lived in the Kunlun Mountains for over three hundred years.
From childhood to adulthood, he had never experienced such a situation.
Moreover, he felt guilty in his heart, so he said nothing at this time.
However, the people of the Ancient Clan immediately could not hold back and made a move.
An old man was seen throwing a slap.
Get the hell out of the way!
Ye Wujiang, a Martial Supreme, was sent flying.
Following that, the old man instantly flashed in front of Ye Long.
He grabbed Ye Long by the neck.
And angrily said:
How bold! How dare you slander the Patriarch of the Ancient Clan!
I have known Brother Gu Yang since childhood, for over three hundred years.
I know Gu Yang's character like the back of my hand.
Even if Brother Gu Yang were to die, he would never do such a heartless thing!
Ye Long struggled in terror.
But in the hands of a Martial Sage, he did not have the slightest ability to resist.
Gu Yang heard the words of his old clansman brother.
He felt increasingly ashamed.
He also felt increasingly fearful.
He was afraid that his clansmen would find out that he was indeed the one who gave the order.
Just as the Ancient Clan fell into chaos.
Su Yan quietly appeared beside Feng Tengyun.
The two of them just stood there by the edge of the Wei Group Center Building.
Grandpa Feng, is there any useful intelligence?
Su Yan asked respectfully.
Feng Tengyun narrowed his eyes, staring fixedly at the resentful Ancient Clan members.
On his aged face, there was neither joy nor sorrow.
The Ancient Clan is very foolish, but very careful.
They almost never allow Ancient Clan members to leave the Holy Capital's perimeter.
Everything is handled by the Ye family on their behalf.
However, the Ancient Clan also has a fatal flaw.
Hearing Feng Tengyun's words.
Su Yan praised in her heart:
As expected of the former Dark Division Consul of the Martial Arts Guild.
If it were not for Grandpa Feng acting as an informant, my Heaven Swallowing Club would probably have been wiped out long ago.
Feng Tengyun's gaze turned toward those young people of the Ancient Clan.
At this moment, some children could still be seen playing games on their mobile phones.
He continued to speak without any fluctuation in his tone:
Their descendants simply cannot resist the temptations of this world.
The impact of the new world is a dimensional strike against these naive youths.
Coupled with their status as the world's number one noble family, their tendency to do whatever they want will be infinitely magnified.
That pure and simple Kunlun remnant clan can never go back to what it was.
Possessing immense power, yet lacking the matching mental maturity.
The decline of the Ancient Clan is a foregone conclusion.
It will be a very painful lesson.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
igrating to the cultivation world for two hundred years, I've managed to lie low and reach the Nascent Soul stage. Only now does my golden finger arrive? ...
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
