Rong Qingyan felt both heartache and gratitude. If it were someone else, they probably would have retaliated against Ye Chen by taking out their hatred on them.
However, Chi Yuan not only did not hate her because of her, but also helped her remove the Blood Prison Gu that was threatening her life, even though he knew she was Ye Chen's mother. Even when his mind was controlled by Yao Yanhong's Nightmare Fallen God Curse and his hatred was amplified, he did not obey Yao Yanhong's will and attack her.
Such a mindset—how many people in this so-called righteous world can match it?
It's ridiculous that Chi Yuan is also falsely accused of being involved with the demonic path. If Chi Yuan is a demon, then how many people in this world can be considered righteous?
A resolute glint flashed in You Rong Qingyan's eyes as she resolved to have You Rong Mingxia also use the Soul Tracing and Memory Recall Technique on her, to show the scene when Chi Yuan saved her, so that these hypocritical righteous experts could see who truly had their heart set on the righteous path!
"Sigh, Ye Chen really went too far back then."
"There is no doubt about this matter; Chi Yuan certainly had a reason to kill Ye Chen."
"Judging from this matter alone, it is undoubtedly a demonic act, but it is unknown whether it was a moment of confusion or whether he had already fallen into the demonic path at that time."
The five men, including Nangong Ming, had complicated expressions. It was no wonder that Chi Yuan hated Ye Chen; what he had done was truly inhuman. Anyone would find it hard to let go of this hatred.
At this moment, they believed about 70-80% of what Rong Xuanqing said, but considering the serious consequences this matter could bring to themselves and their own forces, they could only maintain their attitude of not shedding tears until they saw the coffin.
After a moment of silence, Yao Guang Saint Lord Tuoba Hong said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist You Rong, I admit that Ye Chen's evil deeds back then were indeed demonic acts, but that does not mean that he is a descendant of the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor."
"Yes, we need more convincing evidence."
The Primordial Saint Lord Qi Lin echoed this sentiment.
Rong Mingxia anticipated that the five would be stubborn, so she immediately changed the scene, this time showing Ye Chen meeting Pei Qingyun alone when he first joined the Shenxiao Sect.
In this scene, besides Pei Qingyun and Ye Chen, there is also the soul of an old man, who claims to be the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor!
As for Pei Qingyun's other identity, it was also revealed in this scene. He was a demonic venerable who came from the same sect as Ye Chen's parents. He came to the righteous realm in disguise to protect Ye Chen.
Without a doubt, Ye Chen had already embarked on the path of demonic cultivation before he persecuted Chi Yuan. All those things Ye Chen said before, such as being devoted to the righteous path, being a righteous person in life, and being a righteous soul in death, were just lies to deceive people!
Jiang Yi, Chi Yue, and the other imperial princes and princesses who had been completely fooled by Ye Chen were all filled with shame. None of them believed Chi Yuan, yet they readily believed Ye Chen's words and even pinned the label of demonic sect on Chi Yuan, forcing him to prove his innocence. They were truly unworthy of being righteous prodigies...
"I was so stupid, so very stupid..."
Chi Yue's eyes were filled with tears of regret. How could she have believed Ye Chen's nonsense and doubted her own people?
It turns out, Rong Qingxian wasn't wrong to scold her; she really was childish, truly had a pig's brain...
"How could I be so foolish?"
Chi Tianhao was filled with shame. Just because Ye Chen possessed the Divine Sun Body, and just to recruit Ye Chen, he had naively believed Ye Chen's words. In the end, Ye Chen was the real demonic villain!
The five people including Nangong Ming, as well as Yunlanshan Fenghuai who had previously believed in Ye Chen and doubted Chi Yuan, were also ashamed. Especially the former, who still stood on Ye Chen's side until now, how could they bear it?
Qi Lin, the Primordial Saint Lord, was stiff-faced. Although he felt utterly ashamed, he still continued to question in order to avoid the consequences: "I never imagined that we would all be deceived by this demonic child Ye Chen. We've lived such a long and wasted life. If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Rong exposing the truth, we still wouldn't have seen his true colors. We are truly sinners of the righteous path..."
“However, Fellow Daoist You Rong, since this divine soul is attached to Ye Chen’s body, why did we not notice it at all? I personally investigated him before to confirm whether he possessed the Divine Sun Body, but I did not find any other divine soul within him. Moreover, this divine soul did not appear when Ye Chen was killed. I wonder where this divine soul went? Could it have been imprisoned by the two of you?”
Upon hearing Qi Lin's questioning, Tuoba Hong, Qi Lin, Lu Daoya, and Li Wuwei also questioned the existence of the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor's soul body. Although the soul body claimed to be the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor, who knew if it was an imposter? They had to find it and search its soul to confirm.
"The Blood Demon Ancestor's soul has been destroyed, and my sister and I don't know who did it."
Rong Mingxia truthfully stated that she had searched Pei Qingyun's memories and found no images of the Blood Demon Ancestor being killed. She only knew the time when the Blood Demon Ancestor was killed, but who killed him remained a mystery, with only speculation that it was most likely Chi Yuan who did it.
They were wiped out?
Nangong Ming and the other four narrowed their eyes. If it really was the soul of the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor, how could it be so easily killed by others?
It should be noted that when the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor's divided soul was discovered before, it was only by mid-to-high-level Saints who managed to kill it. If it weren't for Rong Xuanqing and the other two taking action, who in this small Great Qian Kingdom could have destroyed the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor's divided soul?
“Fellow Daoist You Rong, this statement is probably hard to believe. In the past few thousand years, the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor’s divided soul has been destroyed many times after appearing in the world, but the ones who did it were all Saints of the middle level or above. This is recorded in the Righteous Path Law Enforcement Hall. If this soul body is really the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor’s divided soul, and it was not destroyed by the two of you, then who in this Great Qian Kingdom could destroy the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor’s divided soul?”
Yao Guang Shengzhu Tuoba Hong bluntly raised his doubts.
The other four also raised questions, and even began to doubt the existence of the divine soul that appeared in the picture. After all, memories can be faked, and the You Rong Clan is an expert in this area. Who can guarantee that You Rong Xuanqing and the other two did not tamper with Pei Qingyun's memories?
Not to mention Nangong Ming and his companion, even Yun Lanshan and Chi Tianhao felt something was amiss. After all, that was the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor. A person's reputation is legendary, and even a fragment of his soul is not something an ordinary person can deal with. The Da Gan Kingdom only had a few low-level Saints, so how could they kill the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor's fragment of soul?
"etc!"
Jiang Yi, standing next to Nangong Ming, suddenly remembered something and looked sharply at Chi Yuan: "I remember that before he killed Ye Chen, he said that he had destroyed the divine soul body in Ye Chen's body. Could it be the divided soul of the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor?"
These words immediately shocked everyone present.
