How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 172 - 0169: Six-Month Agreement

Chen Yu's heart seethed with silent resentment and extreme irritation.

Of course, he understood that it was Mei Changqing's hostility and jealousy towards him that led to the deliberate framing.

In fact.

Mei Changqing probably didn't know the truth, but he had guessed correctly and spoke with such seeming justification.

After all.

Simply based on "capability," Chen Yu could be considered a suspect.

The key issue was.

Whether Lv Tiezu would subjectively believe or be so easily "driven apart by wedge-driving."

If he were rational.

A person at Lv Tiezu's level, with his experience and insight, should not easily believe the enemy's words.

However.

Chen Yu realized that his thoughts were too naive and optimistic.

"Chen Yu!"

A chilling shout that shocked the soul echoed through the venue.

Lv Tiezu, with his silver hair flying, had a sharp and icy Sword Intent flash in his eyes, locking onto Chen Yu.

"Stop! Lv Tiezu!"

Yunyue Sect's Supreme Elder Gongyang, his face changing, cried out to stop him.

However.

Lv Tiezu's movement was too fast; his spiritual Sword Intent had already made its move towards Chen Yu.

Boom!

Chen Yu felt a dominating and void-like spiritual Sword Intent rushing towards him, akin to the broken sword he faced in the Ancient Moon Well, though slightly weaker.

Nevertheless.

This Sword Intent was purposeful, targeting Chen Yu more intensely, and the situation was very different from that day.

In an instant.

Chen Yu felt a sharp pain in his heart and mind, his complexion turned ghostly pale, his body shook, and he nearly vomited blood.

With a "crack."

The "Ice Heart Tears" amulet he wore on his chest shattered immediately.

It was unimaginable.

The power of this spiritual Sword Intent was so strong that it directly shattered the "Ice Heart Tears" protecting his spirit.

Although the Ice Heart Tears had already been cracked when it blocked a dagger that day.

Sigh~

Chen Yu steadied his body and blood, as a nameless rage erupted in his chest.

Had it not been for the Cloud Evil Fist reaching its peak, combined with the enhanced spiritual energy from consuming the Blood Soul Bud, making him slightly stronger than the average Qi Transformation Realm, this void Sword Intent could have cost him half his life.

"Eh!"

Lv Tiezu, however, was completely taken aback, letting out a sound of surprise.

His attack, a spiritual Sword Intent, was meant to intimidate Chen Yu; yet, it was resisted by him.

Lv Tiezu's reason for attacking was not only his suspicion towards Chen Yu but also the resentment and indignation in his heart.

He was displeased by Chen Yu's rising fortune in the Blood Burial Garden, especially when compared to the death of his own grandson.

"Lv Tiezu, why attack my disciple without any proof?"

An old and angry voice came from the red-faced elder next to Chen Yu.

It was Elder Mao!

A warmth filled Chen Yu's heart. He suppressed his anger, reminding himself that he absolutely must not act impulsively.

"No proof?"

Lv Tiezu's voice was a cold sneer, "The fact that this boy could withstand my ten percent Sword Intent and remain unharmed proves that he can resolve Santong's trump card."

Hearing this.

Chen Yu and Elder Mao almost exploded with fury.

Resisting ten percent of Sword Intent means that Chen Yu is the murderer?

"Lv Tiezu, is this alone sufficient to conclude that Chen Yu is the culprit? Isn't this a bit far-fetched?"

The Gongyang elder in a green robe said with a troubled face.

"Gongyang Mountain, decades ago you couldn't withstand ten moves from me; do you still plan to obstruct my pursuit of the murderer?"

Lv Tiezu transmitted a mocking tone.

Supreme Elder Gongyang's face immediately turned embarrassed, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Lv Tiezu's transmission was meant to save some face for him.

In terms of strength.

Lv Tiezu was unrivalled among the Three Sects; Yunyue Sect's Supreme Elder "Gongyang Mountain" had been his defeated foe, unable to withstand ten moves.

"I don't oppose your pursuit of the murderer, but you must present real evidence, convincing to all. Otherwise, how can I, a Supreme Elder... live with myself?"

Supreme Elder Gongyang transmitted back with a bitter smile.

If Chen Yu were the murderer and there was conclusive evidence, he would not hesitate to hand him over.

After all, the Three Sects were part of the same camp, and they had agreed before entering the Blood Burial Garden not to kill each other.

And Chen Yu's talents were not a key focus for cultivation within Yunyue Sect.

The problem was.

Now that Chen Yu had made significant contributions, Lv Tiezu had no real evidence, which was hard to justify.

"Chen Yu! I ask you one last time, did you kill Santong? I heard from the disciples that at Yan Family Castle, there was a grudge between you and Santong, and you harbored resentment towards each other."

Lv Tiezu said sternly.

Hearing this.

Some elders at the scene suddenly realized.

It turns out.

Lv Tiezu's suspicion of Chen Yu's "capabilities" was also because of a grudge between him and Lv Santong.

"Lv Santong? I recall that the person who appeared at Yan Family Castle was the notoriously infamous Infinite Thief."

Chen Yu coldly laughed.

He understood that at this moment, it was crucial not to show weakness but to stand firm.

"That's right! The one who appeared then was the Infinite Thief?"

Fang Haofei, Xie Jing, and others came forward to testify immediately, voicing their support for Chen Yu.

"So, does Senior Lv admit that your grandson was the villainous Infinite Thief?"

Chen Yu retorted.

"Hahaha..."

A burst of laughter came from the crowd, especially the Bone Demon Palace side, which thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle.

"This boy seems to have great fortune among the Three Sects Camp; causing such discord would indeed be quite an entertaining play."

Master Fu said with a cold tone.

He greatly appreciated Mei Changqing's manipulation and stirring up trouble.

Guardian Shangguan had a cruel and cold expression, watching the drama play out.

" Junior Brother, don't bother with excuses! As long as you know in your heart what you did. Given that you have the power to kill Santong and you have a grudge against him, we can confirm you are the prime suspect!"

Lv Tiezu's expression turned cold as he shouted angrily.

In an instant,

A vast Sword Intent, accompanied by a large swath of orange brilliance, formed a swirling cloud of swords with a radius of twenty zhang, hovering above Chen Yu.

Under that Guiyuan Realm pressure and Sword Intent, everyone in the Yunyue Sect, including some of the Qi Transformation Realm elders, found it hard to breathe.

Boom!

Chen Yu's entire body's qi and blood condensed, and under the invisible Sword Intent's lock, he felt as though he was being crushed by a million-jin iron mountain.

Thinking of arguing back? Even the thought of resisting felt incredibly difficult.

At this moment,

This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.

From the Yunyue Sect side, only Supreme Elder Gongyang had the capability to resist Lv Tiezu's power.

But he remained silent.

Whoosh!

A gust of azure wind swiftly flashed by, placing itself in front of Chen Yu.

"Master..." Chen Yu's heart was shaken.

At this critical moment,

Only Elder Mao, regardless of the cost, stood in front of him.

"Senior Lv! My disciple's single denial is taken as an excuse, whereas the presence of related Qi on Mei Changqing's body, as tangible evidence, is enough to win your belief."

"Could it be that as the number one figure of the Three Sects Camp, you'd rather trust the words of an enemy?"

Elder Mao's gaze was piercing as he stared straight at Lv Tiezu.

As soon as these words came out, the whole place went deadly silent.

This statement was a direct hit to the crux of the matter!

Why should the words of an enemy be believed, while the explanations of one's own camp be dismissed as mere excuses?

"Who do you think you are!"

Lv Tiezu's face was domineering, near to losing his temper in embarassment as he watched his efforts to force a slip-up from Chen Yu being repeatedly foiled.

A flash of cold light in his eyes, he swung his hand.

Whiz!

From the huge orange cloud of sword brilliance above, a streak of sword light flew down like lightning, sweeping past Elder Mao.

Elder Mao's body erupted with a layer of dazzling blue glow, and with a "puff," he blocked the orange sword shadow's sweep.

Wow! Spit!

Elder Mao's figure staggered back, spitting out a mouthful of blood, leaving a fresh red sword scar on his face.

"Lv Tiezu, don't go too far!"

Supreme Elder Gongyang finally couldn't hold back and shouted in shock.

"Hahaha..."

A laughter that shook the mountains and brimmed with indignation erupted from behind Elder Mao.

Whoosh!

Upon Chen Yu's body emerged a powerful spiritual evil might, and around him, blue-black serpentine Qi patterns manifested tangible Evil Qi.

"Junior! What are you laughing at..."

Lv Tiezu couldn't hide his surprise; under his immense pressure and Sword Intent lock, the young man managed to find his voice.

"Hahaha... The first person of the Three Sects is merely a bully who fears the hard and preys on the soft!"

Chen Yu mocked with a big laugh, throwing caution to the wind.

To him, Lv Tiezu was completely unreasonable; no matter how much he bore or explained, it all seemed futile.

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place went deadly silent again.

Lv Tiezu's face showed anger, with a tangible murderous intent in his eyes.

He raised one hand, ready to strike Chen Yu down.

"You have no evidence whatsoever, yet you wish to use force against me. An enemy disciple holds evidence of murder, and yet you turn a blind eye."

Chen Yu stood his ground, fearlessly confronting the first person of the Three Sects.

"I would like to ask everyone present, if this isn't bullying the weak and fearing the strong... then what is it!"

As Chen Yu laughed, his gaze swept across the crowd.

Before the sound of his words had faded, a sense of injustice had already risen in the hearts of some of the disciples present.

"There's no human or physical evidence, why suspect Junior Brother Chen!"

"Why not use force against Mei Changqing?"

Some disciples on the scene, having received favors from Chen Yu in the Blood Burial Garden, spoke out one after another.

Li Bingyue from the Water Moon Sect, including Fei Letian from the Iron Sword Sect, could no longer stand by and raised their objections.

"You..."

Under the multitude of questions, Lv Tiezu's eyes brimmed with rage and killing intent to the point of boiling over.

He raised a hand into mid-air, only to freeze there.

"Junior Master Lv!"

The bearded middle-aged man from the Iron Sword Sect couldn't help but send a telepathic reminder.

Under the public scrutiny,

If Lv Tiezu still used force against a junior like Chen Yu, his reputation in the sects of Chu Country would indeed be marred as that of someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Lv Santong was always domineering and acted alone.

But now, even the disciples of his own Iron Sword Sect were beginning to dissent.

"Very well, very well!"

Lv Tiezu laughed instead of getting angry, suddenly releasing his hand, and the swirling orange brilliance of the sword cloud above his head and the spiritual Sword Intent disappeared in an instant.

"Go!"

Lv Tiezu flicked a finger.

Whoosh!

An orange, transparent sword glyph flashed like lightning and descended upon Chen Yu.

Instantly,

A bean-sized orange Peach Wood Sword imprint appeared on the back of Chen Yu's ear, its light gradually fading away.

"Senior, what is the meaning of this?"

Chen Yu's expression changed dramatically, wondering what Lv Tiezu had done to him.

"Junior? This old man won't use force against you, so as to not lower my own status and become a laughingstock. Yet this spiritual sword imprint will linger on your body for half a year."

Lv Tiezu said with a cold laugh.

"Within half a year, you may not leave the territory of the Three Sects, or you shall be killed without mercy!"

"This old man will investigate this matter, and might even invite the 'Great Witch' of the Great Snow Mountain Tribe of the northern lands to perform the Divination Technique, using the information and clues we have to confirm the murderer."

Lv Tiezu laughed proudly, full of confidence.

And before Chen Yu could say anything, Supreme Elder Gongyang spoke up:

"Chen Yu, I have made an agreement with Lv Tiezu. If he cannot confirm you as the murderer within half a year, he naturally won't trouble you any further. And during this period, you must not leave the territory of the Three Sects."

"Disciple understands."

Chen Yu took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart.

This Supreme Elder of the Yunyue Sect obviously feared and yielded to Lv Tiezu, and would not consider the thoughts of someone as insignificant as himself, readily making this agreement.
