Although there is no conclusive evidence, all clues point to Lin Xiuyuan regarding Han Chenhua, who has been missing and has disappeared without a trace.

This shocked everyone even more, and the disbelief and astonishment in their eyes were gradually replaced by intense shock.

"Could it be that he really killed Senior Brother Han?"

"How is this possible? That's Senior Brother Han! The number one Foundation Establishment disciple on our main peak!!"

"Although this Senior Brother Lin is also a prodigy, his talent is more evident in the Dao of Talismans. The senior sister of the Spirit Vein, who is now recognized as the number one person in the Foundation Establishment stage of the Spirit Vein, was no match for Senior Brother Han in that competition many years ago. It was not easy for him to defeat the senior sister of the Spirit Vein, but it was by no means difficult either."

"His rise to power has been so short, and although his progress has been rapid, how could he possibly kill Senior Brother Han?"

"But... the clues clearly point to him!"

"If this is true... it's unbelievable! How extraordinary must he be?"

For a moment, everyone was extremely shocked. Although in their eyes it was something that was almost impossible to happen, there were now very obvious clues pointing to Lin Xiuyuan.

It seems that the impossible has become possible?

This is... way too exaggerated, isn't it?

The Yunmai disciple's expression darkened slightly after hearing Lin Xiuyuan's words. He said, "Senior Brother Lin, aren't you trying to cover this up? Senior Brother Han went to look for you, but there was no news of him at all. How can you fool us with just a few words? Tell me, what exactly did you do to Senior Brother Han!"

"Heh, that's indeed the case." Lin Xiuyuan chuckled, shrugged, and continued, "Junior brother, you'd better watch your words. There are consequences to speaking carelessly about these things. If you have evidence, feel free to present it! As you said, do you think you can pin a huge accusation on me based on just a few words?"

"you……"

Upon seeing this, the Yunmai disciple was at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Rong Fuzhen narrowed his eyes and said, "Junior Brother Lin, this isn't just a baseless accusation against you. The clues point to you. Senior Brother Han, as the leader of our Yunxiao Sect, has disappeared without a trace. We must find out the truth, otherwise it will be detrimental to our Yunxiao Sect's acquisition of benefits in the secret realm. This is a matter of great importance!"

"Furthermore, what does it mean to tell this junior brother to watch his words? Could there be any consequences? Or are you feeling a little guilty, Junior Brother Lin?"

Lin Xiuyuan turned his head to look, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and was about to say something.

Zhong Qian, who had been sitting not far away, stood up and looked at Rong Fuzhen. He smiled and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Junior Brother Lin didn't mean that. He made himself very clear just now. It's best not to make accusations like this without evidence. Otherwise, others might really think that Junior Brother Lin is so monstrous that he can suppress Senior Brother Han. Hehe."

"In short, there is no clear evidence, only some speculation. Do you all think you can take down Junior Brother Lin based on these speculations? If so, our base here may be coming to an end."

Zhong Qian had been speaking with a smile, but towards the end, his expression turned somewhat cold, and an inexplicable chilling aura emanated from him.

Several Lingxiao disciples in the crowd exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and then silently took a step forward.

In an instant, as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire tent seemed to suddenly fall into an extremely tense state.

The expressions on the faces around him varied, with a strange undercurrent of concentration making up the majority of them...

Before anyone could react, the coldness on Zhong Qian's face suddenly vanished, replaced by his previous cheerful expression, as if it had all been an act!

He continued, "Our argument will not lead to any results. Everything requires evidence. Even if we return to the sect, the elders cannot make a judgment based solely on this junior brother's guesses, right?"

"Right now, we have no evidence or proof, only some speculation. Continuing the discussion won't lead to any conclusions. Now that we've agreed on our next plan, we should prioritize that."

"We are in a secret realm, and we should prioritize the common interests of our sect!"

"You agree, Senior Brother Rong? And fellow disciples?"

Zhong Qian smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping around the room, passing over the junior brother from the Cloud Vein Sect, and finally settling on Rong Fuzhen.

Rong Fuzhen looked at Zhong Qian, who had a smiling face, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. He did not expect Zhong Qian's attitude to be so tough. This time, the disciples of the Yunmai lineage took the lead, accounting for 70 to 80% of the total number of people, and were in charge of this secret realm trip.

Originally, he thought he could use this to put pressure on Lin Xiuyuan and take the opportunity to capture him.

Although he didn't believe that Lin Xiuyuan had killed Han Chenhua, Lin Xiuyuan, despite being a prodigy, didn't have that ability. Having sparred with Han Chenhua for many years, he knew very well how terrifying Han Chenhua's strength was.

Looking across the vast Southern Continent, including the Northwest and the Nine Kingdoms, it is certainly among the top!

However, as someone born into the Han family's vassal state and standing on the same side, he naturally finds himself in direct opposition to Lin Xiuyuan, so how could he possibly let the opportunity to launch an attack pass him by?

But Zhong Qian's stance was unexpectedly resolute. If he persisted, things might not go as planned, and it could even lead to unpredictable consequences...

Although he was Zhong Qian's senior, it was only because he ranked higher than a few others on the main peak. In terms of seniority, Zhong Qian was far superior and held considerable prestige among the disciples. Moreover, Zhong Qian's foundation was unfathomable. In a one-on-one duel, Zhong Qian would at most have a slight advantage.

This made him wary and start to consider whether the matter was still worth pursuing.

At this moment.

Wang Jin, who had remained silent and observed the situation unfold, finally spoke up.

Although he was not as close to the Han family as Rong Fuzhen, he was still a disciple of Yunxiao Sect and should have waited for things to develop. However, if he continued to make trouble, the consequences would be unpredictable and would affect the common interests of the sect. Therefore, he had no choice but to speak up.

While making his stance clear, Wang Jin also gave Rong Fuzhen a way out, thus settling the matter. He said:

“Yes, what Junior Brother Zhong said makes a lot of sense. In such matters, there are different opinions from both sides. Without solid evidence, it is inappropriate to make unfounded accusations against Junior Brother Lin.”

"In this secret realm, all three parties have gathered, and the geniuses of all the major forces are present. Among them are many figures who are even more monstrous than Senior Brother Han. It is possible that Senior Brother Han encountered those demonic children of the demonic path. With Senior Brother Han's combat strength, he is probably unharmed and is currently recuperating somewhere."

"Of course, with Senior Brother Han's combat strength, even if he were surrounded, he wouldn't necessarily be in any danger. Perhaps he's just still vying for opportunities outside... I think it's the junior brothers who are worrying too much."

"Now that we have reached an agreement and are about to go into battle, I think we should put this matter aside for now. We might get news of Senior Brother Han in a few days. Even if we don't, we still need to return to the sect to resolve this matter, right?"

"For now, let's focus our attention on what's in front of us..."
