Black Owl kept a close eye on Da Niu out of the corner of his eye, and naturally he didn't miss the jealousy and greed in Da Niu's eyes.

His inward sneer intensified:

A mere outer disciple of the Azure Water Sect who has just established his foundation dares to set his sights on an inner disciple of the Cold Imperial Sect.

If this big shot isn't mentally unstable, then the Han Yu Sect is truly in such a sorry state that any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to step on it without even worrying about retaliation.

Although he was unwilling to return to Hanyu Sect and repeat the same mistakes, it did not mean that he had completely abandoned Hanyu Sect in his heart.

For him, Han Yuzong was the home that gave him birth, raised him, and nurtured him.

He can run away from home, but he cannot tolerate his home being trampled on!

"He stole the village's livestock, ate raw meat and drank blood, what else could he be but a demon?" Da Niu pointed righteously to a corner of the high platform.

Black Owl then noticed several dead animals placed in a corner of the platform, and upon closer inspection, there were a few blurry tooth marks on them.

Moreover, the teeth marks were indeed not those of an adult; their size seemed to match the twins' ages quite well.

But when they left the Great Zhao Plane, even the Ghost Face had two bundles of tinderboxes on him, not to mention the twins.

The twins grew up in Vulture Village, running all over the mountains since they were young and were skilled at hunting. They had even participated in the battle to defend Vulture Village and had the courage to kill enemies. They were not the kind of spoiled children who knew nothing.

How could they possibly steal other people's livestock and eat raw meat?

Looking at the bound child's innocent face, so much like Ji Fengming's, Black Owl felt a pang of heartache: "Did you see him eat raw meat and drink blood with your own eyes? Did you see him steal and kill these livestock?"

“Of course…” Da Niu’s eyes darted left and right, and he said with a stiff neck, “He is a demon. I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business, lest people see that you are in cahoots with the demon, and further damage the reputation of your Han Yu Sect.”

"Who saw it?" Black Owl turned his head and glanced at the group of bewildered villagers around him, his eyes cold and fixed on Da Niu.

To be precise, he was looking at the strangely familiar black leather rope around Da Niu's neck.

This leather rope was made from the tendons pulled from the body of a dragon-like creature that Shang Xiye and he had discovered by chance.

There are only a few of them, and only their close relatives have them.

The men among them mostly wore leather lanyards around their necks, as did the twins.

The reason why this big bull was in such a hurry to burn one of the twins was most likely because of the Nashi space under the leather rope.

He wants to monopolize the storage space of Xiao Fengxiao or Xiao Fenghua!

"You're the only one here who's swearing he's a demon, and you're probably the only one who 'saw' him eating raw meat and drinking blood. These villagers don't even know what a demon is." Black Owl approached Da Niu step by step, his aura and pressure gradually spreading outwards. "Even you couldn't have seen a demon with your own eyes. Otherwise, with your level of cultivation, you wouldn't even be enough to fill a demon's teeth, let alone survive!"

"I...I...I...I was on a mission with the sect's elders and senior brothers, so...so I..."

Da Niu felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, causing his knees and back to bend infinitely towards the ground.

He then realized with shock that the inner disciple of the Han Yu Sect in front of him was far more powerful than him, and he was no match for him.

But in front of the entire village, he was unwilling to deny it.
