"Young friend, do not be misled by these demonic people. As long as you are devoted to the righteous path, the righteous path will never let you down."
Qin Xuantian looked at Chi Yuan and said solemnly.
“Young friend, my Northern Cold Divine Palace has always believed in you. You must not be disappointed in the righteous path because of Nangong Ming and the others.”
“That’s right. My Heavenly Immortal Academy, along with our fellow Daoists from the Extreme Dao Heavenly Mansion and Starfall Pavilion who came out with us earlier, have all been on your side from the beginning. The reason we didn’t show ourselves earlier was to help you stop these demonic cultivators and prevent them from rescuing Ye Chen.”
“Young friend Fufeng, Nangong Mingchi and Tianhao do not represent the entire righteous path. We are the backbone of the righteous forces. With our support, we will never let you suffer any more grievances in the future!”
The holy lords of forces such as the Northern Cold Divine Palace appeared one after another to convey goodwill to Chi Yuan.
Chi Yuan could sense that these forces were genuinely on his side, and having mastered the "Former" secret technique, he vaguely felt that these forces would have some kind of deep interaction with him in the future.
There was also a feeling that these forces were all waiting for him.
"Senior Xuantian, the young master would never be bewitched by the demonic path! Please believe me, the young master has always been devoted to the righteous path!"
At this moment, You Rongqingyan stood up and spoke loudly to Qin Xuantian. She didn't care about what the other forces said, but she cared a lot about what Qin Xuantian said. She didn't want this leader of the righteous path to have any more doubts about Chi Yuan, so that Chi Yuan would be put in a passive position again.
"If you don't believe me, look at an experience I had with you, young master."
After saying that, You Rong Qingyan asked You Rong Mingxia, "Holy Ancestor Mingxia, please use the Soul Tracing and Memory Recall Technique to show me that memory scene."
"Qingyan, no, this will harm your soul!"
Chi Yuan's expression hardened, and he quickly stopped him.
You Rong Qingyan shook her head and gazed at Chi Yuan with deep affection, saying, "Young Master, you have helped me so much, I can never repay you. Please let me do what I can for you."
"But……"
"Young friend, it's alright. I'll help her recover her spirit afterward."
Qin Xuantian interrupted Chi Yuan in a gentle voice.
Chi Yuan didn't know what to say after hearing this.
Meanwhile, You Rong Qingyan released her divine soul, allowing You Rong Mingxia to use the Soul Tracing and Memory Recall Technique on her.
Soon, You Rong Mingxia brought up the memory scene that You Rong Qingyan wanted to show. It was the memory of Chi Yuan using the Nine Netherworld Fire to remove the Blood Prison Gu from her, then being controlled by Yao Yanhong's Nightmare Fallen God Curse, and then breaking free from control to destroy Yao Yanhong together.
Many people were initially confused by this memory, but after careful consideration, they began to admire Chi Yuan. He was truly a person who was devoted to the righteous path!
You Rongqingyan felt a sharp pain in her soul, as if it were being torn to pieces. Her face showed deep pain. Fortunately, Qin Xuantian intervened in time to heal her soul wounds, thus relieving her from the pain.
After catching her breath, You Rongqingyan smiled and shook her head at Chi Yuan to indicate that she was alright. Then she said firmly, "As everyone can see, back then, even though you knew I was Ye Chen's mother, you still chose to help me and remove my potentially fatal ailment. You did not harm me in the process because of your hatred for Ye Chen."
"Some people might say that the young master is lusting after my beauty and wants to take revenge on Ye Chen in another way, but if that's the case, how could he restrain his hatred and desires and stop himself from attacking me while under Yao Yanhong's curse?"
"You all assumed Ye Chen was on the right path after hearing just a few high-sounding words from him. But what about the young master's clear distinction between gratitude and resentment? Who is truly on the right path?!"
After You Rong Qingyan finished speaking, Qin Xuantian added, "The Nightmare Fallen God Curse used by this woman is the famous curse of the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor. It can amplify the hatred and desire deep in the heart of the person affected to an uncontrollable degree."
"And the fact that young friend Fufeng, despite being two major realms below this woman in cultivation, was able to restrain his hatred and desires and break free from the curse's control proves that he did not transfer his hatred for Ye Chen to You Rong Qingyan, nor did he harbor any ill intentions towards her. This is enough to show that his heart is set on the righteous path."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi, Wu Ban, and the other imperial princes all lowered their heads in shame, feeling utterly ashamed. Although they only suspected that Chi Yuan had been possessed by a demonic cultivator, they actually treated Chi Yuan as a demon, while believing that Ye Chen, as a descendant of a demonic cultivator, was a person with a heart for the righteous path.
Now, after reading about Chi Yuan's experience, they realized how wrong they had been. A person who hated his enemy to the bone did not transfer his hatred to the enemy's family members at all. Even though the enemy's family members were extremely beautiful, he did not have any lustful thoughts for revenge.
Even they themselves would find it difficult to achieve such a mindset, yet they regard such upright people as demons.
Even just now, they were still doubting whether Chi Yuan would be bewitched by the demonic people and join the demonic path. It's really laughable. How could they have the right to doubt someone who is so devoted to the righteous path?
Chi Yue was filled with shame and felt like she was going to die. Thinking about her righteous and lecturing face to Chi Yuan, she felt utterly ugly.
Only now did she realize that in Chi Yuan's eyes, she had always been a pathetic clown, and indeed she was a complete clown.
"Chi Yue, you will get your retribution... You will definitely get your retribution... You really don't deserve to live in this world..."
Chi Yue covered her face and wept bitterly. If she could travel back in time, she wouldn't change anything; she would kill herself to prevent it from happening.
However, there are no "ifs".
It's too late to regret it...
Chi Tianhao's face grew increasingly aged. Looking at Chi Yuan, his eyes were empty and lifeless. He had misunderstood Chi Yuan too deeply, and the deeper his misunderstanding, the lower the possibility of resolving it, even to the point of near nothingness. Whether he admitted it or not, the Tianchi Holy Land and the Chi family had completely lost Chi Yuan, and there was absolutely no possibility of making amends.
And all of this is the result of his own sins!
"Chi...Chi Yuan, if I were to exchange my death for your return to the Chi family, would you...be willing to agree?"
Chi Tianhao looked at Chi Yuan with hopeful eyes and asked in a hoarse voice.
However, Chi Yuan's expression remained cold, and he said, his words piercingly, "Even if you die ten thousand times, I will never return to the Chi family, because your Chi family is not worthy!"
Your Chi family is not worthy!
Upon hearing this, tears blurred Chi Tianhao's aged eyes; this time, the tears that flowed were tears of blood.
Chi Yuan is right, the Chi family is not worthy, and neither is he.
This cold-hearted family deserves their retribution.
They should have been punished more than 8,000 years ago.
Otherwise, how could a perfectly healthy person like Chi Shang have fallen into the demonic path?
