Chapter 1217 What Wrong Did I Commit

As for the investigation, it’s ultimately up to the Great Elder to decide, especially since Nan Xiao has offended the Family Head?

But unexpectedly, before they even left the Immortal Sect, Nan Xiao entered the Immortal Sect. He had to take him down first before consulting with the Family Head for a solution—the blame of conspiring with Demon Cultivators, using the Dragon Team’s Fire Attribute cultivator to alleviate Cold Poison and exchanging it for the method to refine Blood-sucking Ghost, must be shouldered by Nan Xiao.

However, despite all his calculations, he never expected that Nan Xiao would have secretly reached Nascent Condensation. Consequently, he never anticipated that he wouldn’t be able to handle Nan Xiao now!

Nan Xiao dodged the Great Elder’s Dragon Claw with a quick move: "Why are you arresting me? What wrong did I commit?"

The Great Elder was astonished that his grab could miss?

He was at Golden Core Perfection, just needing a chance to reach Nascent Condensation, and yet he failed against a late-stage Golden Core like Nan Xiao?

Moreover, he was over three hundred years old, with abundant battle experience, while Nan Xiao was just over forty, still a brash kid in his eyes.

Actually, before Nan Xiao left the Immortal Sect, he had already reached Golden Core Peak, almost at Golden Core Perfection. But since Nan Xiao was always humble and never showed off, the Great Elder was unaware.

Now, Nan Xiao was a Nascent Soul True Monarch, which made the Great Elder even more perplexed.

The Great Elder assumed that Nan Xiao’s dodge was just a coincidence, so he launched another Dragon Claw at him.

While shouting harshly, "You dare ask why? It was clearly you who conspired with the Demon Cultivators, you dare falsely accuse Nan Gong, even attacked Nan Gong, harmed our kin, and even allowed the Dragon Chief to destroy Nan Gong’s Dantian.

According to the rules of the Nan Family, our kin must not harm each other. Your actions of framing family cultivators should be punished by abolishing your power and expelling you from the family!"

Nan Xiao finally understood.

The Great Elder actually claimed that he was the one conspiring with the Demon Cultivators;

The Great Elder actually claimed that he attacked Nan Gong and harmed the kin;

The Great Elder actually claimed he allowed the Dragon Chief to destroy Nan Gong’s Dantian, abolishing his power!

Although Nan Xiao had long known that Nan Yun’ao had secretly hurried back to the Immortal Sect family, and would surely reverse black and white to accuse him, possibly even laying a trap for him.

But he never expected he would reverse black and white to such an extent, blaming everything that Nan Gong did onto him.

Nan Xiao dodged the Great Elder’s Dragon Claw again, shouting: "Stop! I want to see the Supreme Elder!"

The Great Elder sneered: "You want to see the Supreme Elder, dream on. Usually, there’s the Supreme Elder to protect you, but this time, with what you’ve done, not even the Supreme Elder can save you.

Be honest, abolish your own Dantian, and go exchange yourself for Nan Gong. Otherwise, if I do it, you’ll suffer tenfold to a hundredfold the pain."

As he spoke, he reached out again.

By this time, he still thought Nan Xiao was at Golden Core Peak like himself, not realizing he was now attacking a Nascent Soul True Monarch, thus revealing his plans.

Nan Xiao sneered: "So you plan to convict me without allowing me to defend myself and make me take the fall for Nan Gong? Since when did the Nan Family become the domain of you few people?

Nan Gong conspired with Demon Cultivators, committing despicable acts that would anger both the gods and men. Once the alliance finds out, it might even implicate the Nan Family. Yet, you still want to force a confession from me to take the fall for Nan Gong?"
