The moment Ying Changfeng took out the fragment, she was the only one who frowned slightly.
Her eyes flashed, and she immediately sent a message to Ying Changfeng: "We must force Tianqing Pavilion to be the first to reveal the origin of the fragment."
Ying Changfeng immediately did as he was told and said, "My Wanjian Sect is still unaware of the origin of this item. Tianqing Pavilion has business all over Dongzhou and is the best at appraising treasures. If Deputy Pavilion Master Yin can't tell me the whole story, I'm afraid it would be unacceptable."
Yin Tiannu's pretty face darkened slightly. Ying Changfeng had a very deep plan, and he actually used her as the first one to attack her.
She didn't know if anyone present recognized this thing. If she told a lie and was exposed, the situation of Tianqing Pavilion would be even worse.
But if you don't tell lies...
"Yin Tiannu, you are usually very talkative, why are you silent now?"
At the Guimu Valley banquet, Zhong Yongchang held a knife at his side and said in a cold tone, "Are you feeling guilty?"
Yin Tiannu's eyes turned and she smiled sweetly, "Zhong Zhenchuan, you are wronging me. I was just recalling the origin of this item.
At this point, she sighed softly, "So many years have passed. You can't keep putting the blame for Liu Huang destroying your magic weapon on me."
Zhong Yongchang smiled wryly, "Deputy Pavilion Master Yin has time to quibble. It seems he already knows the origin of this item?"
Yin Tiannu's smile faded, and he glanced around at the tables. Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, he could only speak the truth: "This thing should be a fragment of the Boundary Breaking Stone."
"What?!"
"Boundary Breaking Stone!"
"How is it possible..."
These words caused an uproar in the place, and noisy sounds gradually rose.
"Quiet!"
Zuo Jing shouted coldly, his cold eyes sweeping across the entire audience like a knife. Everyone fell silent instantly, and his aura was unmatched.
"Boundary Breaking Stones are rare, and few existed at the time. If I remember correctly, there is one in the Thousand Star Palace."
Zuo Jing's words were cold and harsh, and his spearhead was directed at Wei Lesheng.
Wei Lesheng scoffed, "Are you trying to stir up trouble among the five major sects with these words? If your eldest brother were here, he would definitely not deal with me in this way."
Zuo Jing's expression changed slightly, but he still forced himself to remain calm and bit back, "Wei Zhenchuan is avoiding the topic. Is he feeling guilty?"
Wei Lesheng's expression was calm, and he spoke without haste, "The Boundary-Breaking Stone is a secret treasure of our Thousand Star Palace, and it's intact. If you don't believe me, I can report this to Master and verify it."
Ying Changfeng was listening to the two people arguing from above, but he was completely confused.
Bai Miaoyin seemed to see this and immediately explained, "Master Ying, the Boundary Breaking Stone is the raw material for the top-grade storage ring, and it can also be used to pry open space.
More than a hundred years ago, Xiang Sheng sacrificed himself to seal the passage to the Underworld. Since then, the space of Dongzhou has been stable and we could have rest easy for hundreds of years. However, just a hundred years ago, we were attacked by the demons from the Underworld. This is a matter that is puzzling.
"Now that the Sect Master has produced this fragment of the Boundary-Breaking Stone, everything makes sense. There must have been a spy colluding with the Underworld to open the spatial passage, causing countless casualties and devastation to the people of our East Continent."
Bai Miaoyin's tone was already cold when she finished speaking, "Such a traitor must be cut into pieces to vent our hatred!"
Ying Changfeng suddenly understood and was overjoyed.
After displaying this item, the crisis of his Wanjian Sect was mostly resolved. Miss Si was really a master strategist and had foresight!
"Everyone, I feel that this matter cannot be concluded yet."
In the middle of the incense hall, a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard suddenly spoke up. Seeing so many people looking at him, he smiled humbly, cupped his fists, and introduced himself: "I am the deputy hall master of the incense hall, Nie Mingkang."
Duan Dao sat next to Nie Mingkang and snorted coldly, seeming to be extremely unhappy.
Nie Mingkang seemed not to have heard Broken Blade's snort as he continued, "I'm a casual cultivator, but I also know the principle of not showing off one's wealth. This Boundary Breaking Stone is publicly owned by the Thousand Star Palace, but secretly... who knows if there aren't at least one or two within each sect?"
Nie Mingkang paused, "To put it bluntly, the Wanjian Sect may seem small, but in fact, their ancestors also have powerful sword cultivators. Who can guarantee that this fragment wasn't staged by Sect Master Ying himself?"
As soon as these words came out, Ying Changfeng felt a chill in his heart, and his expression changed drastically. "Incense Hall, you are too narrow-minded! Just because my disciples killed the disciples who offered incense to your hall, you want to let my Wanjian Sect be doomed?!"
"Master Ying, don't worry."
Nie Mingkang seemed completely unaware of how outrageous his words were. He still maintained a humble and polite attitude and defended himself, "It's just an analogy. I just wanted to say that if we use the fragments of the Boundary Breaking Stone to identify spies, wouldn't the scope be too broad?
If I have said anything wrong, please forgive me, Master Ying."
