Dethrone me, I don't want the throne anymore, why are you so angry?

"Are you feeling wronged? Didn't you tell me that you gave your spot to Xu Wangchen?"

A shout sounded.

Voices of agreement suddenly rang out all around.

Originally, they came here to make trouble for Xu Wangchen because of Ye Xuan's words, and to vent their anger for not having a place, but now the result is like this.

As a result, he still looks like he is taking the blame.

Listening to the sounds around him, Ye Xuan's face turned red and he wanted to bury his head in the ground.

This shouldn't be the case. How could this happen? Why are all the accusations directed at me?

The development of the matter was somewhat beyond Ye Xuan's expectations. For a long time, Ye Xuan was unable to say a word.

The Jiuling Sect Master snorted upon seeing this, but did not pursue the matter any further. Instead, he looked at Ye Yu deeply and then said, "Wangchen, follow me."

After saying that, he took Ye Yu into the hall.

After the two left, Ye Xuan raised his head and looked coldly at the hall in front of him, with deep resentment in his eyes, "Xu Wangchen, just wait for me!"

Ye Yu followed the leader of the Jiuling Sect all the way to the entrance of Jianfeng.

"Wangchen, it seems like you and Ye Xuan don't get along very well?" The leader of the Jiuling Sect said lightly, but there was a bit more inquiry in his eyes when he looked at Ye Yu.

"The Sect Master has misunderstood." Ye Yu replied indifferently.

The leader of the Jiuling Sect looked back at Ye Yu and said nothing more. He took out a token and opened the seal in front of him.

A stone staircase leading upwards was revealed, and above the stone staircase was the sword peak.

Ye Yu did not hesitate and stepped forward. As soon as his feet touched the stone steps, Ye Yu frowned and looked back at the leader of the Jiuling Sect.

The leader of the Jiuling Sect had a calm expression, but with the perception of the peak soul of the Earth Realm, Ye Yu clearly noticed that the speed of the spiritual power circulating in the main body of the Jiuling Sect was gradually accelerating.

After looking at each other for a long time, Ye Yu grinned and then strode in.

Watching Ye Yu's figure gradually disappear before his eyes, the Jiuling Sect Master restored the seal and said to the person beside him: "Gu Yuan, do you know the consequences you will have to bear if this news is wrong? Even if you are the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Hall, I will not let you go."

In the corner next to him, Gu Yuan's figure emerged. He stepped forward, bowed to the Jiuling Sect Master, and said, "I assure you, Sect Master, that I saw Ye Yu walk into the Dan League Hall that day, but when he came out, he became Xu Wangchen."

"Moreover, this matter has been verified by Han Yi, one of the leaders of the Dan League."

After hearing this, the Nine Spirit Sect Master's eyes turned cold. "How dare you toy with my Nine Spirit Sword Sect? This matter must not be spread outside. Just think of Xu Wangchen as having died on Sword Peak. Do you understand?"

Not only did the Saint Zixiao sneak into the mighty Nine Spirit Sword Sect, he even obtained a heavenly-grade spiritual skill from the Nine Spirit Sword Sect's Sutra Library. If this news were to get out, the Nine Spirit Sword Sect would no longer be qualified to gain a foothold in Leizhou.

"Yes, Sect Master." Gu Yuan nodded, naturally knowing the pros and cons.

Then the Nine Spirit Sect Master waved his hand and said, "Go and call Ye Xuan. I'll take him to Sword Peak. As for Xu Wangchen, or Ye Yu, being able to become a sacrifice won't be a waste of all the training my Nine Spirit Sword Sect has put into him over this period of time."

After saying that, the leader of Jiuling Sect walked towards another place. The place that Ye Yu had entered before was not Jianfeng, but Jiuling Forbidden Land.

Inside the forbidden area, Ye Yu raised his head and looked at the dark stone steps in front of him that led to nowhere. He formed seals with his hands and a faint green light enveloped his body.

As soon as he stepped onto the stone steps, Ye Yu realized something was wrong. There was no sword energy in this so-called sword peak, and even the spiritual power of heaven and earth was in chaos. It did not look like a secret realm of a sect at all.

But at the same time, Ye Yu also clearly felt the unusual movement of the Xu Tian Ding, and it was clear that something inside was attracting it.

After taking a look around, Ye Yu flipped his palm and a glass sword appeared in his hand. He walked slowly towards the depths of the stone steps, step by step.

Ye Yu didn't know how long he walked until he smelled a faint smell of blood in the air. He stopped and saw a huge deep pit in front of him. At the bottom of the pit, there seemed to be a giant creature with a body of a hundred feet long crawling.

His whole body was bound with iron chains, and there were many bones scattered on the ground in front of him. The bones were crystal clear, and he must have been at least in the Nascent Soul stage when he was alive. It was obvious that many cultivators had died here.

Crash...

Suddenly, the sound of a chain being dragged was heard, and Ye Yu's whole body stiffened. The huge monster below slowly raised its head at this moment, and a pair of scarlet eyes stared at Ye Yu.

Ye Yu finally saw the whole picture of this thing, "Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast!"

Now Ye Yu finally knew where the fire in Gu Yuan's hand came from!

Roar!

Seeing Ye Yu, the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast suddenly let out a roar, and then pounced towards him with its huge claws, pulling on countless iron chains, and a loud sound like muffled thunder was heard in this deep valley.

Ye Yu's face changed, and he exerted force on his feet and instantly flew into the air. He slashed out with the glass sword in his hand, and countless sword energies burst out, directly facing the huge beast claw.

The sound of metal clashing was heard, and countless sparks lit up in the dark valley. The sword energy that Ye Yu slashed out only left streaks of fire on the body of the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast, but could not break its defense.

Seeing the giant claw approaching, Ye Yu used the Nine-Turn Dragon Step to barely avoid it, but his shoulder was still torn by the giant claw.

A sharp pain came, but Ye Yu had no mind to take care of the wound. He quickly prepared to deal with the second attack of the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast.

It was hard to imagine that just a slight scratch could cause such power. If Ye Yu's Phantom Dragon Wind and Thunder Body had not advanced further, it would have been torn in half by now.

Relying on the speed of the Nine-Turn Dragon Step, Ye Yu dodged the attacks of the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast several times. It was also while dodging that Ye Yu discovered something was wrong.

There is a scale on the forehead of this ice crystal dragon-scale beast that is obviously not right. It is more like a piece of green copper than a scale.

When he thought of this, Ye Yu's eyes suddenly widened. Thinking of the unusual movement of Xu Tian Ding, a hint of ecstasy gradually appeared in his eyes. This green copper piece was probably the same as the missing piece of Xu Tian Ding on the battlefield of Bai Chao that day.

Huh... After confirming it, Ye Yu let out a long sigh, watching the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast at the bottom of the pit slowly raise the Glazed Sword in his hand. The red spiritual energy around his body rose up, and his whole aura changed at this moment.

A figure holding a blood sword slowly gathered behind Ye Yu.

The Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast noticed Ye Yu's change, and kept making low growls of fear. Its entire body also crawled down, looking as if it was ready to attack.

But at this moment, there seemed to be a tremor in the dark valley, and the ice crystal dragon-scale beast quickly turned around, not caring about Ye Yu and directly put its head against a crack.

Ye Yu's eyes were also fixed on the crack at this moment.

Strands of blood and energy that were extremely familiar to Ye Yu continued to seep out from it.
