Luo Cheng, the Truth King, shocked everyone with his words.
On the viewing platform, everyone's facial expressions were quite fascinating.
If any one of the people in this room suddenly had an illegitimate child, no one would be surprised.
Such things are common among aristocratic families.
It's become commonplace.
However, Immortal Venerable Zheng Kaiyuan has always been a moral exemplar for all immortal cultivators.
Even his coldness towards his wife and daughters was interpreted by many as self-discipline and restraint, showing that he did not indulge in petty romantic relationships.
The sudden emergence of an illegitimate child, without any attempt to conceal it, has caused many people to feel intensely uncomfortable.
This is no small matter.
Fu Jiuzhou coughed deliberately, and Luo Cheng realized that he had misspoke.
As the person in charge of the Ministry of Justice, he must be particular about evidence, and this shocking revelation is not suitable to come out of his mouth.
Besides, there are outsiders here; we can't reveal the Immortal Venerable's secrets right now.
If the Immortal Venerable loses face, then the entire Immortal Venerable's Palace loses face.
To avoid embarrassment, he could only look around aimlessly.
Upon closer inspection, an even more absurd scene unfolded.
Ye Wan clung tightly to Su Hanjiang's waist, refusing to let go.
Although they are master and disciple, they are still different men and women.
This posture is indeed unsightly.
Absurd, utterly absurd!
But this was ultimately a matter for the demonic cultivators themselves, and it wasn't appropriate for him to interfere.
He had seen things that were even more absurd than the most ridiculous.
It's possible to remain calm.
This was all thanks to his eldest son.
Su Hanjiang said, "Let go."
Ye Wan said, "No, if I let go, it will be gone."
What kind of thing disappears as soon as you let go?
Ye Wan diverted everyone's attention, and Fu Jiuzhou was relieved.
But I also felt that I couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
What kind of behavior is this, hugging and cuddling?
Niu Mang doesn't care about love and romance; he only cares about winning and losing.
"Hey, is this over or not? Who won and who lost?"
Ji Kongmeng said, "That's simple. Can't the Fifth Elder see who's left on the stage? It's my master who won!"
Niu Mang: "This..."
Seeing the situation clearly, Fu Jiuzhou immediately said, "I admit defeat."
Just kidding, if we don't admit defeat now, are we supposed to fight again?
Anyone who disagrees, go and fight!
Anyway, he didn't want to fight again.
The Grand Elder of the Immortal Venerable's Mansion lost, but the future of the Immortal Venerable's Mansion stood the test of time.
This competition is cleverly designed; no matter which side wins, it won't look too bad.
Fu Jiuzhou thought about it more and more and felt that such a perfect idea could not possibly have come from Su Hanjiang.
It wasn't that he couldn't think of it, but that he disdained to do so.
When has he ever cared about anyone's feelings?
The immortal venerable one echoed him, so he must have known about this beforehand.
It was probably his idea.
I don't know what the Immortal Venerable used to bribe Su Hanjiang, that he would actually cooperate in this charade.
"In that case, the matter is finally settled."
The Fourth Elder spoke up, intending to cover up the fact that Ye Wan had injured the Seventh Elder Qiu Fan.
To prevent further complications.
Qiu Fan's injury was entirely his own doing.
It would be inappropriate to escalate this to a conflict between immortal cultivators and demonic cultivators.
The main reason was that he still had a lot of documents to review and didn't want to waste his time on some unworthy people.
But there are righteous people everywhere in the immortal cultivation world, and they are unwilling to swallow this injustice in silence.
Qiu Fan's subordinate, Qiu Ze, certainly wouldn't allow such a matter to be let off so easily.
Otherwise, Qiu Fan would become a laughing stock in the cultivation world.
"That sword spirit injured the Seventh Elder, are we just going to let it go like this?"
Second Elder Xilou Yue gave Qiu Ze a look that said he was an idiot: "So what are you going to do? Summon the sword spirit again and avenge Seventh Elder?"
Qiu Ze said urgently, "That's not what I meant!"
Xi Louyue said, "Then what do you mean? You can't beat the sword spirit, so you're planning to blame a little girl? If you're shameless, then fight her yourself."
"I……"
Roy Chiu immediately fell silent.
He couldn't beat the sword spirit, and he couldn't even beat Ye Wan.
The so-called "taking up a fight" means asking someone else to stand up for someone who is wronged.
Unfortunately, Qiu Fan was not well-liked and offended people everywhere he opened his mouth.
No one was willing to stand up for him.
It can't be moved.
Now that Xi Louyue has spoken, the elders in front of the hall cannot possibly make a decision for Qiu Fan.
Elder Luo Cheng held a special status, and a lowly servant like himself would never dare to order him around.
The Ninth Elder has always avoided trouble, and helping Qiu Fan stop the bleeding is already more than enough.
The Immortal Venerable didn't seem to intend to pursue the matter.
Qiu Fan suffered this sword strike for nothing.
Although Qiu Ze was resentful, he had no choice but to endure it for the time being.
Ever since he followed the Seventh Elder, the word "patience" had always been hanging over his head.
A gentleman takes his revenge, even after ten years.
One day, those who look down on the Seventh Elder will pay the price!
Seeing Qiu Ze's gritted teeth, Ji Kongmeng sneered, "Senior sister, someone wants to settle scores with you."
"Huh? Who is it? Who owes me money?"
When Ye Wan heard that someone was looking for her to settle scores, her attention was immediately drawn to them.
She's been eating out with her own money lately, and she's almost broke.
Ye Wan was confident that she had never owed anyone money, and any debts were settled on the spot.
Since someone is trying to settle accounts with her, it must be because that person owes her money.
She finally let go of Su Hanjiang and turned to see that Qiu Fan was still breathing.
Ye Wan asked in confusion, "What's wrong with this 'Praise Uncle'? Did he get struck by lightning for giving a half-hearted compliment?"
Qiu Fan lost most of his blood and was on the verge of death.
Now the culprit is asking him what happened.
