Being an elite warrior within the Xuan Yuan Mound totem clan, when had Xuan Yuan Ba ever wanted to find trouble with the Qin Clan? However, under such circumstances, Xuan Yuan Ba had to show some attitude.

Upon hearing the words of Qin Yunran, Xuan Yuan Ba revealed a faint smile and turned to look at Xue Chan of the Karakorum Immortal Clan.

Chief Xue Chan nodded. “Miao Yun, there is a saying of how you cannot only rely on verbal words. You say that Qin Wushuang has charged into your forbidden training ground, do you have any evidence?”

Since Miao Yun colluded with that Xin Tianchen, they had already made up an oral confession beforehand. She said with a neither hurried nor slow tone, “It's simple to find this evidence. As that Qin Wushuang has been in the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, certainly there would be remnants of his presence. When my Supreme Dao Fruit from my training ground went missing, the long vine that bore the fruit is still there. This is also evidence. As for human witnesses, many people had seen Qin Wushuang over there by the cave entrance, though he was disguised with a mask. However, according to the saying of how you cannot run from the long arm of the law, although Qin Wushuang disguised himself well, there were still some who recognized him. They can testify.”

“Who?” Chief Xue Chan asked lightly.

“Xin Wuji from the Heavenly Emperor Gate, Xin Wuwang and Yan Qiansui of the Heavenly Punishing Villa, and Lei Hong of the Sound of Thunder Sect all could testify. Conveniently, all these people were murdered by Qin Wushuang sequentially. However, before their death, they had all sent spiritual perception to each of their leaders. These powerhouses can all testify!”

After he had finished, Miao Yun turned to look at Xin Tianchen and the others.

Initially, Yan Qiansui and Lei Hong were all murdered by the divine beast of the Emei Daoist Sect. The same goes for Xin Wuwang. Xin Wuji had told this to Xin Tianchen.

However, Xin Tianchen had always had a hidden agenda for he never told the truth to the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect. Instead, he told them that Qin Wushuang had killed Yan Qiansui and Lei Hong.

These two houses had naturally trusted the Heavenly Emperor Gate and Xin Tianchen's words were reasonable and fair. Everyone knew about the grudges between the Qin Clan and these two powerhouses. When the fact was brought to them of how Qin Wushuang had killed Yan Qiansui and Lei Hong, it was impossible for them to have any doubts.

Therefore, per Xin Tianchen's information, Yan Guinan of the Heavenly Punishing Villa and Lei Ming of the Sound of Thunder Sect had taken his words completely. When had they ever hesitated when dealing with the Qin Clan?

Not to mention that Qin Wushuang was a suspect of murdering Yan Qiansui and Lei Hong, plus the new and old hatred accumulated from the battle at the Floating Snow House, it caused these two powerhouses to not be satisfied until Qin Wushuang was destroyed.

When Xuan Yuan Ba heard that the people to testify had also belonged to the powerhouses of the Xuan Yuan Mound, his heart could not but help to sink. The Xuan Yuan Clan never interferes with conflicts between sects.

However, there must be a proper limit in terms of conflict!

It had been alright if they were to fight internally. Now, outside their homeland, they had made a spectacle of themselves. Despite feeling discontent inwardly, before all of these people, Xuan Yuan Ba would not unleash his dissatisfaction. Instead, he shot a light glance at Xin Tianchen and the others.

“Xin Tianchen, Xin Wuji, the son of the Heavenly Emperor was also murdered by Qin Wushuang?”

Xin Tianchen said with an aggrieved tone, “Mr. Ba, indeed Xin Wuji was murdered by Qin Wushuang. Thinking of how our Wuji only stopped Qin Wushuang as he did not want him to humiliate the reputation of the Xuan Yuan Mound for his personal gains. He had not wanted it to influence the relationship between the Xuan Yuan Mound and the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Initially, he spoke only good words to persuade him to stop his pillaging, but who knew that this Qin Wushuang was so undisciplined and out of control? He has made a move against a colleague from the Xuan Yuan Mound?”

Through the decorated words from his mouth, Xin Wuji's disgraceful fail to gain the treasure for himself, had in fact, modelled Xin Wuji into a great and noble warrior that presided over fairness. At the same time, Qin Wushuang had become a lowly person who destroyed the general situation for his own personal gain.

Yan Guinan also said, “Initially, my Heavenly Punishing Villa did not want to step out. However, that Qin Wushuang was being an intolerable bully. Even if he does hold a grudge with my Heavenly Punishing Villa, wouldn't it be better to solve it at the Xuan Yuan Mound? At the treasured place of the Illusion Heavenly Lake, this Qin Wushuang has not card about the general situation and is truly vile. Mr. Ba, if this Qin Wushuang is not taken out, there will not be any fairness left in the heavenly law.”

Lei Ming also cried, “Thinking back, when we departed from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, the Heavenly Emperor had ordered again and again to forbid us to spoil each other. However, the Qin Clan did not respect this order, but rather murdered fellow colleagues: he needs to be punished by death!”

Xin Tianchen had secretly felt funny. Fortunately, he had not told them the truth. Or else, how could he have found such capable assistants?

As each person fed the situation a bit more, even if Qin Wushuang had a thousand mouths, how could he explain himself? Public clamor could obscure the actual truth: defamation destroys the man.

Xuan Yuan Ba was not a person without a brain. Upon hearing the words from these three powerhouses, he did not believe them profoundly. He also clearly knew the grudges between the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect with the Qin Clan.

That unpublicized form of hostility between the Qin and the Xin Clan was also not any secret.

No matter who was right or wrong, one could not just listen to the story of one side.

Chief Xue Chan said with a low voice, “Friend Xuan Yuan, these three are all people from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. I would think they would not be framing the Qin Clan, that also belongs to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, right?”

Xuan Yuan Ba was not being ambiguous. “It's not enough to take words from one party as evidence. We should find that Qin Wushuang. Since he is the one in question, we should allow him to make a statement for himself. What do you think?”

The leaders of the other three Forbidden Spiritual Zones nodded. “Yes, as we are bringing it to trial, we must hear what that Qin Wushuang has to say.”

“Yes, to catch a thief you must find the stolen goods. When both the thief and the stolen goods are found, it's easier to put together the crime.”

“That's right, Xuan Yuan friend, let's call that Qin Wushuang.”

Upon hearing the words from everyone, Xuan Yuan Ba said to Qin Yunran, “Yunran, call forth that Qin Wushuang.”

Qin Yunran sent his spiritual perception to Qin Wushuang. Not daring to neglect him, Qin Wushuang walked to the Jade Void Palace. As soon as he walked into the palace, Qin Wushuang had immediately sensed the boundless pressure from the gathering of the Supreme Dao elite warriors.

If Qin Wushuang had not undergone the spiritual light baptism, most likely he would lose himself under such circumstances. Under the attention of all eyes, Qin Wushuang had walked in.

The first one he saw was not the elite warriors of the five totem clans. It was not Second Chief Yuaran either, but that Female Celestial Miao Yun. This treacherous woman that had humiliated him at the Bowl Valley.

“That's him!” Female Celestial Miao Yun could not restrain from crying out.

“I am Qin Wushuang and it's my honor to meet all the elite warriors of the totem clan and all its seniors!” Qin Wushuang showed proper courtesy and was neither servile nor overbearing. While facing the pressure from Female Celestial Miao Yun's gaze, he was fearless and looked at her in the eye.

Qin Yunran said, “Wushuang, this Mr. Ba is the elite warrior of my Xuan Yuan totem clan. Don't worry, justice is in the will of the people. Someone is spouting to frame you, to accuse you. Although the Qin Clan is in a humbling position, we do carry some self-esteem.”

Qin Wushuang said, “I understand.”

When everyone saw that Qin Wushuang had acted with such calmness under this major scene, they felt somewhat surprised.

Xuan Yuan Ba looked at Qin Wushuang and did not press the pressure of a totem clan elite warrior. He asked without an overbearing tone, “Qin Wushuang, Female Celestial Miao Yun of the Emei Daoist Sect says you stole their Supreme Dao Fruit. That you charged into their forbidden training ground. Has this happened?”

Female Celestial Miao Yun said with a cold sneer, “Mr. Ba, if you ask this way, of course he will not admit it. Would you permit me to ask him a few questions?”

This Female Celestial Miao Yun was also unbridled for she dared to speak this way before the totem clan elite warrior of the Xuan Yuan Clan. Indeed, Xuan Yuan Ba was not feeling happy about this. He shot a glance at Chief Xue Chan, for clearly, he was questioning her on how the martial artists of the Illusion Heavenly Lake had no respect for their seniors.

In fact, Chief Xue Chan said, “Xuan Yuan friend, the Emei Daoist Sect is the victim and Miao Yun is somewhat anxious, please excuse her. Miao Yun, go ahead and ask.”

Female Celestial Miao Yun nodded and said with a cold tone, “Qin Wushuang, you have been to the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, right?”

Qin Wushuang said lightly, “That's right, I have been there.”

“Humph! The Ten Thousand Flower Valley is the forbidden training ground for my Emei Daoist Sect. Without an invitation, you charged in recklessly. This is a major crime! You then killed Xin Wuji and the others to seize the Supreme Dao Fruit! I have not wronged you, have I?”

“Female Celestial Miao Yun, right? Before you ask me these questions, could I also ask you some? Initially when you charged into the Xuan Yuan Mound on your own and snatched away my people of the Xuan Yuan Mound, did you receive someone's invitation? You relied on your tyrannical strength and tortured me under the circumstance where there were no spectators. How come you did not repeat the same trick today? Using force to interrogate, isn't that your specialty?”

The complexion of Female Celestial Miao Yun went cold as she shouted, “Chopped logic!”

Qin Wushuang raised his eyebrow and continued, “Everyone, Female Celestial Miao Yun charged into my Xuan Yuan Mound and secretly attacked the martial artists of the Xuan Yuan Mound, this is going to be reasonable and fair? I just happened to pass by the Ten Thousand Flower Valley and this would be a grave crime? How could such bandit logic exist in the world? Female Celestial Miao Yun claims that the Ten Thousand Flower Valley is a forbidden zone; however, there were at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand martial artists that had entered the Ten Thousand Flower Valley on that day. How come I did not see any disciples of the Emei Daoist Sect stopping them? Since it's a forbidden ground, why would the Emei Daoist Sect set up a martial arts stage to look for a groom? Why would they allow their disciples to spread the information of the Supreme Dao Fruit deliberately, to lure those martial artists heading towards the cave of the divine beast? Female Celestial Miao Yun, today even if you hadn't come to find me, I must file a complaint against you before the elite warriors of the totem powerhouses. You and the Emei Daoist Sect used the Supreme Dao Fruit as bait to attract the martial artists to head over there and to become the next meal for the divine beast white tiger. You want to help him break through the Eighth Transformation Supreme Dao Stage and make a go for the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. For this matter, you thought it could be kept a secret. Yet you don't know that, there isn't a wall in the world which hasn't a crack! For all the things the Emei Daoist Sect has done, the heaven and earth knows. You know and I know!”

Initially, the Emei Daoist Sect's actions had been done without leaving a trace. In the eyes of the outside world, those martial artists went to steal the Supreme Dao Fruit when they heard about the information, but were later swallowed by the divine beast. The outside world would never think that the information of the Supreme Dao Fruit had been spread by the Emei Daoist Sect.

Therefore, Female Celestial Miao Yun did not carry this layer of worry. Now having been exposed by Qin Wushuang on site, she flew into a rage. “Qin Wushuang, you are making a false counter-charge that is as deep as three inches into the bone! My Emei Daoist Sect is innocent. You want to escape from your crimes and dare to accuse the innocent people of my sect? You should be punished by death!”

“Whether punished by death or not, the firmament have eyes. Female Celestial Miao Yun, the Emei Daoist Sect have hearts as malicious as snakes and scorpions, today I will take the lid off your painted skin! Do you have a disciple named Ruo Can? Do you have a disciple named Ruo Tong? When I was at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley that day, I accidentally heard the conversation between Ruo Can Fairy and her friend. If there is a word of lie, I am willing to take the punishment of the heavenly law. Miao Yun Fairy, would you dare to point the finger to the sky and vow at this Jade Void Palace? Was this not a setup by the Emei Daoist Sect to provide strong warriors for the divine white tiger to eat?”

Qin Wushuang's words were stern and just which rendered Female Celestial Miao Yun speechless.

She said while burning with a frenzy of rage, “Qin Wushuang, you are making a false counter-charge. Do you have the guts to let me search your bag and see whether that Supreme Dao Fruit is on you or not? Regardless the tens and thousands of words, when we find the evidence, everything will come into the clearing!”

Qin Wushuang said with a cold sneer, “Female Celestial Miao Yun, if you do not find any evidence, would you dare to admit that this was all set up by the Emei Daoist Sect?”

Through the battle of words, they did not yield an inch. As Qin Wushuang was fully aware of the challenging situation, of course he would pledge his life to fight for it.
