Chapter 1994: Chapter 1859: Framed and Falsely Accused

The vast star sea, with countless stars.

However, finding a suitable star for retreat in this vast star sea is not easy.

Many stars are dead silent, without even air, let alone Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

For several days, Ye Fan traveled through the desolate star sea, searching for a star suitable for retreat.

After countless disappointments, he finally found an ideal place for retreat.

This was a shattered star fragment, but it did not turn into cosmic dust; instead, it remained intact, emanating strange fluctuations.

"This is an Ancient Star of Life that once birthed a Great Emperor!"

Ye Fan muttered to himself; he sensed a faint Emperor’s energy.

This feeling could not be wrong, even though only a fragment of the star remained, it still conveyed a sense of grandeur and vastness.

Eventually, they rushed into this strange place. Ye Fan immediately found a quiet spot, established a Dong Mansion, and began secluded cultivation.

Bai Yan wolf and the Golden Divine Dragon also entered retreat. Only the Peacock did not need retreat and served as a protector while keeping an eye on the dynamics of the Ancient Star Path.

While Ye Fan was in retreat, at a certain node on the Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path, the void cracked open, and a young man with blood-red hair rushed out of the void.

"So this is the Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path?"

The young man looked around coldly, then quickly disappeared along the Ancient Star Path.

No one knew that at this moment, a Demon Clan infiltrator had officially infiltrated the Ancient Star Path.

At the same time, similar incidents occurred elsewhere, with Tu Sihai and eight others successfully infiltrating the Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path.

A feast of slaughter was about to begin...

The Ancient Star Path, since ancient times, has been full of bloodshed, with all trialists who step on this path being competitors.

Those who stepped onto the Ancient Star Path first have gone far, building their supreme prestige with the blood and lives of countless opponents.

Among them, Ba Cangtian from the Xuanhuang Ancient Star Domain and the Martial Immortal from the Eternal Ancient Star Domain were hailed as the most promising young strong people to Prove Dao.

A group of powerful trialists gathered around them, shaking the entire Ancient Star Path, with heaven-defying fortune.

Not long after, the Ancient Star Path was shaken.

Several Human trialists were brutally killed on the path, their blood congealed, bodies cold!

Such things happen every moment on the entire Ancient Star Path and shouldn’t cause much of a stir.

However, their bodies still contained a strong Death Energy, undoubtedly the work of human-shaped creatures or Demon Clan infiltrators.

"The Ye-named is indeed a Demon Clan infiltrator!"

An ancient road law enforcer inspecting the bodies was shocked, finding a bright red "Ye" character on one of the bodies!

This was a blatant provocation, a provocation to the dignity of the Human Race!

"Issue my law enforcement order: All trialists will be generously rewarded for slaying the Ye-named Demon Clan infiltrator!"

The law enforcer issued the order with a livid face, and the entire Ancient Star Path was shaken.

Soon after, bad news spread again on the Ancient Star Path. More trialists were inexplicably killed, their bodies also containing strong Death Energy.

"We cannot let him continue his arrogance; we must send older strong people to overpower and kill him, or he will become a great menace!"

Some discerning individuals worried, knowing that whether Demon Clan or human-shaped creatures, they relied on Death Energy for cultivation. The more deaths, the more beneficial for their cultivation.

The Ancient Star Path, with daily killings, was ideal for their survival and cultivation.

At this rate, the balance would eventually shift and lead to a great disaster.

"This child must not be left alive!"

"For the human race and all beings, he must be exterminated as soon as possible!"

"As long as he remains alive, everyone is in danger, and the Ancient Star Path will never have peace again!"

Many trialists voiced strongly, demanding that older strong people take action, capture, or kill Ye Fan, to restore peace to the Ancient Star Path.

They had no prejudice against Ye Fan but were concerned for their safety.

While this talk spread across the Ancient Star Path, some of the instigators freely mingled among the crowd.

Tu Sihai, Qi Motian, and Luo Yifu took turns striking, killing the trialists of the Human and Demon Clans, and forged evidence, framing Ye Fan.

They learned that Ye Fan hadn’t been lost in the chaotic space currents, but instead returned to the Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path, which was simply unbelievable.

However, that was fine, using this opportunity to blame all crimes on Ye Fan.

They believed that in the long run, even if they did not act, Ye Fan would be unanimously ostracized by all the trialists.

If they could incite a self-sabotaging fight within the Human Clan and have others eliminate Ye Fan for them, it would be perfect.

They knew well not to act too frequently, or else if their identities were exposed, they would die without a doubt, let alone framing Ye Fan.

So, after striking swiftly a few times, they stopped immediately and blended into the crowd to gather information.

During this period, on the Ninth Segment of Starry Ancient Road, where Ye Fan had appeared, scouts spread out, and many ambitious trialists wanted to find Ye Fan and kill him with a single blow.

However, Ye Fan seemed to vanish as if into thin air, disappearing from the Ancient Star Path.

"Why would he do this? It doesn’t make sense!"

In the Tenth Ancient City, Li Yu’er muttered to herself.

In his view, even if Ye Fan was really a spy from the Demon Clan, there was no way he would expose his identity so blatantly.

Most likely, Ye Fan would hide himself and then strike unexpectedly to eliminate the geniuses of the Human Race.

Moreover, even if Ye Fan did act, the most logical target would be people like them, because they wouldn’t have significant defenses against him, making them easy prey.

Most importantly, they had already made a name for themselves and had become one of the few top-tier strong people on the starry path.

If Ye Fan was truly a spy for the Demon Clan, he would not kill those ordinary trial participants with no competitive ability, but should target the few who were most likely to prove their Dao.

But now, not only did he act, he also left obvious evidence. Isn’t he just asking for trouble?

"I want to return to the Ninth Ancient City and personally ask him why he did this."

Yue Haoyu, exuding a faint Holy Might, said calmly.

"I advise you not to go. He’s in a lot of trouble now. If he really is a spy from the Demon Clan, I’m afraid you might not fare well," Emperor’s Son Yue Chuan frowned.

"It’s no problem. I’m already a Saint at the Venerable Realm. Even if he tries to kill me, it won’t be easy. Even if I can’t defeat him, I can still protect myself." Yue Haoyu replied.

"As you wish. To be honest, I’m also curious whether Brother Ye Fan is really a spy from the Demon Clan."

Yue Chuan stopped persuading. He and Yue Haoyu had broken through almost simultaneously in an Ancient Arena, proving their Dao status and becoming Saints of the Venerable Realm.

Over the years, they endured brutal battles and several close calls.

Especially the battles with several Heavenly Pride from Jiang Sheng Star, which were truly fierce, with the Great Demon’s body being shattered several times.

However, the rewards were immense. Hovering between life and death allowed their strength to surge.

"I will hurry back as soon as possible. I entrust everything to you here!"

Yue Haoyu clasped his fists and then boarded the Divine Light Escape, disappearing without a trace.

They were confronting several strong people from Jiang Sheng Star, whose power was no less than that of the Emperor’s Son.

As Yue Haoyu hurried back to the Ninth Ancient City, both the Human Race and the Demon Clan dispatched some older generation strong people to cooperate with the Law Enforcers of the starry path, vowing to bring Ye Fan to justice.

Of course, if met with resistance, they were allowed to act decisively, killing immediately without the need to report.

For the safety of the starry path, for humanity, for all beings, they were prepared to go to any lengths.

The Xuan Realm was naturally also shaken. When some images returned to the Xuan Realm, many were shocked.

At first, many didn’t believe Ye Fan was a spy from the Demon Clan, as he had walked step by step from the Xuanwu Sect.

The most important thing was, with the Nine Heavens Profound Emperor Bloodline, it seemed impossible for him to be a spy from the Demon Clan.

Yet—

Once those bloody images returned, people fell silent.

The evidence was more compelling than rhetoric!

If Ye Fan wasn’t a spy from the Demon Clan, how could he so ruthlessly slaughter the Human Race’s trial participants, and that lingering Death Aura could not be faked.

"Absolutely impossible!"

Ling Family Ancestor’s eyes shot out two terrifying beams of light, smashing the fine purple jade table beside him with a palm, emitting a terrifying wave.

He absolutely refused to believe Ye Fan was a spy from the Demon Clan.

Ye Fan had his father’s bloodline flowing through him; how could he be a spy for the Demon Clan? There was certainly a conspiracy here, someone feared him and didn’t want him to grow.

"Seems I’ll need to tread the starry path myself."

Ling Yunzhi said coldly.

He would not allow anyone to mistreat Ye Fan. Though Ye Fan had not returned to the clan, his bloodline was immutable.

Immortal Academy Director Old Immortal and the Sloppy Elder of the Treasure Pavilion did not intervene, although they too did not believe Ye Fan was a spy, it was not their place to intervene directly.

Although they did not act, they closely monitored the development of events.

Often it is like this, a hero wrongfully dies, and only after the hero’s death do people realize the injustice and feel regretful.

However, by then, it is already too late.

Will Ye Fan be unjustly killed?

Of course not!

At this moment, he is in retreat, on a fragmented Star Fragment in the vast star sea, dedicated to his cultivation.

He was not simply practicing the Chaos Heavenly Skill, but cross-referencing it with the Nine Heavens Profound Skill.

Inheriting Life and Death Qi, this was his unique trait; neither purely cultivating the Xuan Skill of humans nor cultivating the Heavenly Technique of human-shaped creatures was the best choice.

"I want to create my own Xuan Skill!"

After a lengthy period of preparation, Ye Fan felt he now had the ability to innovate his own Xuan Skill, even if it was only a partial creation.

"Heavenly Dao is unpredictable, as are people’s fates, a single thought between life and death..."

"Heaven and Earth are impartial, treating all things as straw dogs. Saints are impartial, treating all people as straw dogs..."

"Chaos begets Dao, Dao begets One, One begets Two, Two begets Three, Three begets all things, all things embracing Yin while holding Yang..."

At this moment, in Ye Fan’s body, mysterious and grand chanting rang out. Using the Chaos Heavenly Skill and Nine Heavens Profound Skill, he began drafting his own Xuan Technique.
