Chapter 623: Chapter 589: Unbridled and Distorting the Truth (Merged Chapter) 2

Master Cang Yu accompanied him, with two rows of Foundation Establishment Elders respectfully standing inside the palace.

At the same time, they swiftly prepared various fruits, spirit wine, and rare meats, placing them on a round wooden table in the center, intending to properly entertain this Grand Sect Master.

Yet Hua Baiyu paid no attention to these things and directly asked, “Where is the Red Hero who hunted the wolf tribe and caused the death of my disciple?”

His voice was cold and hard, and a chilling light flickered in his eyes, making the cultivators present feel a chill in their hearts.

The Great Elder, Zheng Jingming, stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, “To report to Master Hua, the Red Hero is not one of our sect. We do not know his whereabouts.”

“He’s not one of your sect, yet he’s been helping you deal with the demon clan constantly?”

“Although the Red Hero is just a loose cultivator, he is also a person of the Zhao Kingdom and thus does not wish to see his fellow countrymen suffer,” Zheng Jingming explained.

“Is that so?” Hua Baiyu neither confirmed nor denied and continued, “Then you should be able to contact him and have him come to see me quickly. I have something to ask him.”

Upon hearing this, the Great Elder’s heart skipped a beat, but he could only bite the bullet and continue, “To be honest, we cannot contact the Red Hero either.”

“Are you joking with me?” Hua Baiyu’s eyes suddenly turned cold, emitting an astonishing light, causing the temperature in the hall to drop significantly.

At the same time, an overwhelming pressure surged toward the Great Elder, making his face turn pale and body nearly collapse.

At the critical moment, the Supreme Elder, Master Cang Yu, stepped forward, standing in front of the Great Elder.

“Elder Zheng is not lying; we indeed cannot contact the Red Hero.

Master Hua, with your vast divine skills, you should be able to discern the truth of his words.”

As a Golden Core Master, it is no trouble at all to deduce the truth of a single statement from a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

“I cannot discern it,” Hua Baiyu shook his head and said.

“Master Hua, the Red Hero spends every day slaying demons, fighting for the people, risking his life, how could he be related to the death of your sect’s disciple?” At this point, another elder in the hall couldn’t help but speak up.

He looked around fifty years old, with dark skin and a long scar on his face, looking more like a gang leader than an elder of a fairy sect.

This was You’s master, He Xiang.

Seeing Hua Baiyu’s extreme rudeness and domineering behavior, He Xiang felt indignant and spoke up.

“I didn’t ask for your opinion. Do you have a say here?” Hua Baiyu waved his sleeve, and a large area of green light surged out.

It knocked He Xiang’s body flying, even breaking several stone pillars in the hall before it stopped.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

He Xiang’s clothes were tattered, his face was ashen, and he didn’t know how many of his bones were broken, lying on the ground spitting blood incessantly.

Seeing this, the other elders in the hall were furious, feeling that Hua Baiyu was too bullying.

As a guest of the Corpse-Driving Sect, to attack the host’s people so recklessly was simply disregarding the Corpse-Driving Sect.

But in this world, whoever has the bigger fist is the truth. Hua Baiyu not only possessed great strength but also had the top power, Taiyi Sect, as his backing.

No matter how arrogant, no one present had the ability to deal with him, and could only bear it silently.

“The Red Hero, such a person, acts with chivalry, frequently resisting the demon clan for the human race and is quite beloved by the people.

I have never heard of him being related to the death of your sect’s disciple. Does Master Hua have any evidence?” The Supreme Elder, Master Cang Yu, said warmly.

Although his tone was gentle, the meaning implied was similar to He Xiang’s, very firm, essentially unwilling to disclose the Red Hero’s whereabouts.

Furthermore, it questioned the fairness of Hua Baiyu’s actions.

“Hmm?” Hua Baiyu stared fixedly at Master Cang Yu.

But Master Cang Yu met his gaze fearlessly, his face showing a calmness, seeing through life and death.

“Hehe, I’m merely asking him to come over for questioning. What are you so nervous about?” Hua Baiyu suddenly chuckled lightly, “My Taiyi Sect as a leader of humanity, wouldn’t be unreasonable or make things difficult for a meritorious person.”

“Since you don’t know, then forget it.”

“Resisting the demon clan is indeed an extremely dangerous task. Otherwise, my disciple would not have sacrificed himself heroically.” Hua Baiyu chatted for a while, then shifted the topic back to his disciple Fu Weiyi, with his tone becoming somewhat somber.

But words like “sacrifice,” “heroic,” and “resist the demon clan” felt quite jarring to the elders present, all widening their eyes, thinking they had misheard.

“Alas, my disciple traveled thousands of miles to the Zhao Kingdom for trials, helped you kill demon clans, but ultimately died at the hands of the Wolf Demon.” Hua Baiyu reiterated again.

The people exchanged glances, unsure of what to say, with only the words “shameless” lingering in their minds.

When had Fu Weiyi ever helped the Corpse-Driving Sect resist the demon clan?

Not only did he not help, but he often ambushed the sect’s cultivators for the sake of refining some treasures.

This led to the fall of several cities, with countless civilians perishing, leaving no remains, making it not too much to say he was full of evil deeds.

Yet in Hua Baiyu’s mouth, Fu Weiyi had become a hero who died for defending the Zhao Kingdom against the demon clan.

It could be said to be turning black into white, the height of shamelessness.

“The contribution of Disciple Fu, we will always remember,” the Great Elder Zheng Jingming agreed, forcibly suppressing his disgust.

Just hoping that this Master Hua, after venting his emotions, would quickly leave the sect.

Yet in his ears, Hua Baiyu continued, “Although my disciple has sacrificed, he died resisting the demon clan, and it was a worthy death, not failing my teachings to him.

However, he carried with him some treasures of our sect, which fell into your Zhao Kingdom, and must be retrieved.
