"Yun Xiao, your performance on the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield is indeed impeccable, but deciding to come to Impermanence Island with just a few people was clearly a mistake!"

There was a flash of strange light in Wei Duzheng's eyes. With his mind, he naturally knew that the deeds Yun Xiao accomplished on the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield could not be erased, and he didn't even think about erasing them.

But the last sentence was in fact a way to erase all the major achievements Yun Xiao had accomplished, because even if all the low-rank alien spirit armies were combined, they couldn't compare to one Sacred Heavenly Spirit.

These experts from major forces have traveled thousands of miles to this Impermanence Island, all for the purpose of completely killing that Sacred Heavenly Spirit. Now that the Sacred Heavenly Spirit has escaped, someone must bear the blame.

The scene where Lu Tianrun and Fu Lingxue were cowardly and afraid to die was witnessed by only a dozen people, strictly speaking. However, Yun Xiao's entry into Impermanence Island with a few companions was well-known by everyone.

By then, with empty words, they could embellish Yun Xiao's stubbornness and self-assertion, and not only would his great achievements on the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield be overshadowed, but when the alien spirits return, more people would blame Yun Xiao for his recklessness.

After all, most ordinary cultivators do not know Yun Xiao's urgent purpose for entering Impermanence Island. Wouldn't it be safer to wait for these heavenly rank experts to arrive from all major forces and enter Impermanence Island together?

Now, with the biggest alien spirit leader having fled and only a few truly knowledgeable about what happened on Impermanence Island, with the influence of these two major forces, some things may not be entirely impossible to achieve.

"Yun Xiao, if it weren't for your presumptuous decision, and you had waited for us to arrive before charging into Impermanence Island together, that Sacred Heavenly Spirit would not have escaped. So the greatest responsibility lies with you, or rather, with Lianyun Mountain!"

Wu Zhukong clearly understood Wei Duzheng's meaning, and his words were no longer just targeting Yun Xiao alone, but trying to portray the entire Meridian Refining Master Guild as a common enemy of the Tenglong Continent.

After all, Yun Xiao is nominally still a disciple of Lianyun Mountain; even the mighty Meridian Refining Master Association couldn't stand against the united cultivators of the entire Tenglong Continent.

Wu Zhukong was even thinking that if things escalated and everyone believed that the escape of the Sacred Heavenly Spirit today was Yun Xiao's fault, even Lianyun Mountain couldn't withstand such immense pressure.

If it comes to that, to prevent its lineage from being broken, Lianyun Mountain would probably have to cast Yun Xiao aside. Without the great tree of the Meridian Refining Master Association, wouldn't this young boy be at the mercy of others?

The major trends on the Tenglong Continent have always been controlled by the four top forces, and they are adept at guiding public opinion.

Now, with Wuyan Palace and Spirit Fighting Commerce joining forces to launch a campaign against Yun Xiao on the mainland, it's not particularly challenging.

"Wu Zhukong, Wei Duzheng, do you still remember that Yun Xiao is my Lianyun Mountain's disciple? Did you ask whether Lianyun Mountain agrees before throwing this dirty water?"

Qingmu Wu now regards Yun Xiao as a half-teacher, half-friend figure and has always been grateful to him, so at this moment, he certainly wanted to speak out and support him.

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao's companions couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that with the backing of the Meridian Refining Master Association, even Wuyan Palace and Spirit Fighting Commerce would have to consider their actions carefully, right?

"Heh heh, if Elder Lu were here, we might have to worry a bit, but alas, today, your Lianyun Mountain does not have the right to control the situation!"

However, just after Qingmu Wu's words fell, even when he brought up the significant background of Lianyun Mountain, Wei Duzheng coldly laughed, making many people's hearts tighten.

Speaking of which, the Spirit Fighting Commerce on the Tenglong Continent ranks after the Meridian Refining Master Association; hence, besides bearing hostility toward Demon Mountain, they have always been quite discontent with Lianyun Mountain.

Lu Yanji is certainly known as the top expert on the Teng Continent, the number one on the Heavenly List, but he is not on this Impermanence Island at the moment. Just these two heavily injured elders of Lianyun Mountain cannot stir up a great wave.

Hearing Wei Duzheng's cold laughter and sensing the exhausted aura of Qian Sanyuan, Qingmu Wu almost spat out old blood, even wondering if the earlier cowardice of Lu Tianrun and Fu Lingxue was a premeditated plan?

"Two old fellows, have you forgotten that Master Xue is still here?"

Just as Qingmu Wu was feeling depressed, thinking he might have to suffer in silence this time, a deep voice suddenly came, causing him and Qian Sanyuan to rejoice instantly.

For the speaker was none other than Xue Tianao, the Hall Master of Xuanyin Hall. The weight of his words was entirely different, and he was not injured, so his strength was definitely not below either Wu Zhukong or Wei Duzheng.

"Xue Tianao, today's matter, I advise you not to get involved, lest you invite trouble upon yourself!"

As Master Xue's words fell, a familiar voice also followed, which was that of Wei Duzheng, the Palace Master of Wuyan Palace. These two forces have always had their disagreements, and his words seemed to indicate a willingness to tear off the facade.

"That brat Yun Xiao has taken the secret treasure of our Wuyan Palace's ancestral land for himself. If he doesn't give an explanation today, our Wuyan Palace will never agree!"

Before Xue Tianao could respond, Wu Zhukong finally revealed his true intention, which might be the primary reason he was targeting Yun Xiao.

Back in Extreme Yin City, Wu Zhukong wanted to kill Yun Xiao because the latter possessed four Wuyan Cloth Fragments, which related to the secret treasure Wuyan Palace had sought for many years but failed to find.

However, Wu Zhukong did not expect that Yun Xiao, who gathered the four fragments, could quickly locate the place where the supreme treasure was hidden, which turned out to be the ancestral land of Wuyan Palace now turned into a large lake.

According to the report from Leng Buyan, who escaped back to the palace, Wu Zhukong first learned that from the trip to Yanji Lake, Yun Xiao was the biggest winner, as he possessed the four Wuyan Cloth Fragments, and the secret treasure of the Wuyan Palace's ancestral land must have been taken by him.

Wu Zhukong had always wanted to find an opportunity to reclaim the things belonging to Wuyan Palace from Yun Xiao, but after the turmoil at Yanji Lake, Yun Xiao has been holed up in Demons Mountain, leaving him at a loss.

Today, at this moment, is undoubtedly a perfect opportunity. Elder Lu Yanji of the Meridian Refining Master Guild did not come, Qingmu Wu and Qian Sanyuan are severely injured, and a single Xuanyin Hall is likely not a match for the combined forces of Wuyan Palace and the Spirit Fighting Commerce.

"Correct, Master Xue. You cannot interfere in today's matter, nor can you manage it. Yun Xiao killed many of our Spirit Fighting Commerce's special envoy protectors and destroyed our two branches. This grudge should also be settled today!"

After Wu Zhukong's words fell, Wei Duzheng indeed stepped out immediately, and his tone also carried a strong hint of threat.

Just like Wuyan Palace, although Spirit Fighting Commerce and Yun Xiao's enmity arose differently, an irreconcilable, life-or-death situation now stands between them.

Yun Xiao had the backing of the Meridian Refining Master Association, which also had Lu Yanji, hailed as the strongest on the continent. Wei Duzheng and Wu Zhukong clearly knew that if they missed today's opportunity, they might never get such a good chance again.

With that brat's cultivation talent, if he truly received a few more years, they feared even the top experts on the continent would not be a match for him.

Therefore, after unceremoniously pinning the blame on Yun Xiao, the fox tails of the Wuyan Palace Master and the Spirit Fighting Commerce's President were finally fully revealed.

For someone like Yun Xiao who has done great deeds for the human race, they might not dare to take action. However, now, with mud already thrown on him, even if people find out later that they killed Yun Xiao, it would be nothing more than a sigh.

"Tsk tsk, the thickness of those two old guys' skins is unparalleled in my life!"

Even though Yun Xiao had lived two lifetimes, he was still amazed by their performance. While he seemed relaxed here, Xue Tianao's face was grave to the extreme.

After all, the strength of Xue Tianao was on par with those two. At that time, if one person held him back, no one else could stand against another sovereign figure.

Moreover, the two strong experts of Lianyun Mountain and Lian Yuluo were severely injured, while Wuyan Palace and Spirit Fighting Commerce also had Lu Tianrun and Fu Lingxue, both with formidable combat strength. The situation was clear.

"Master Xue, no need to worry, there might still be strength to fight!"

Seeing Xue Tianao's worry, a cold light flashed in Yun Xiao's eyes as he turned his head and said to a certain lady, "Ying'er, pair up with Chi Yan Red Feather to hold off one of the old guys for a while, shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Hu Ying'er, who Yun Xiao asked, also looked somewhat grave. After all, even if she was the other personality of the Double Flower Pure Lotus Body, her cultivation was only at the peak of the Floating Life Realm.

Reaching the Heavenly Rank, the differences between each small realm are vast, not to mention the difference between such great ranks. Both of them were at the late stage of the Lingyun realm.

"Don't worry, even if I die, I'll still bite off a piece of his flesh!"

However, sensing the situation on the field, Hu Ying'er knew she must stand firm. Her words revealed a resolute intention unmistakable to everyone present.

"Rest assured, we won't let you die!"

Yun Xiao's face remained calm. Naturally, he understood the gap between Hu Ying'er, Wu Zhukong, and Wei Duzheng. However, with both Heavenly Rank individuals Red Feather and Chi Yan joining, enduring a few moves should be no problem.

No one noticed the trace of madness flashing in Yun Xiao's eyes. At this moment, the hatred in his heart towards Wu Zhukong and Wei Duzheng probably burned even fiercer than that for the Sacred Heavenly Spirit You River. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Yun Xiao considered himself blameless on behalf of humanity after entering the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield. Yet, those old guys still intend to kick him while he's down and kill him completely, leaving him no room for forgiveness.
