She hadn't expected that the forces in Qingzhou had become so indiscriminate, capable of distorting and misinterpreting events that occurred in front of hundreds of thousands of people.
"Heh, shameless?"
"I think it's you who are shameless!"
A smug glint flashed in You Buyu's eyes as he continued, "Elder He, Elder Xia of your Divine Sword Sect cut off my arm. Originally, the grievances were settled and the debts were settled. Since Xia Anyu is dead, I did not pursue the matter with you. But I did not expect that your Divine Sword Sect would be so shameless as to try to take credit for this matter. Are you not afraid of being exposed and becoming a laughing stock?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the envoys from various factions below echoed his words.
"That's right, the Divine Sword Sect is one of the four major sects, how can they be so shameless?"
"I wonder when this trend started. If the ancestors of the Divine Sword Sect saw this, I wonder if they would jump out of the underworld."
"Alas... people's hearts have changed. The descendants of the Divine Sword Sect have disgraced the prestige that their ancestors worked so hard to build up!"
Logically speaking, He Jiuhong was a mercenary sent by the Chifeng Mercenary Group to provide support.
They probably wouldn't feel anything hearing these people mocking the Divine Sword Sect.
However, after this period of communication with the people of the Divine Sword Sect...
Especially after witnessing Xia Anyu endure three attacks from the Mermaid Demon King to save everyone that day.
She and the Divine Sword Sect had already established a very deep bond.
So when these mocking words reached He Jiuhong's ears, they immediately ignited a surge of anger within her.
"Haha, hahaha!"
She laughed in anger, pointed at the crowd, and curled her lips into a disdainful smile.
"I thought that Qingzhou, as a remnant of the ancient Qingyu, should have the demeanor of a ruler of various regions in ancient times. But I never expected to see today that not a single descendant of the Qingyu is a man!"
Her clear voice echoed throughout the hall, instantly silencing the entire place.
"You're all you can do, currying favor with the powerful and abusing your authority. You're just here wagging your tongues and spouting nonsense!"
"I know that you all think that my Divine Sword Sect has no Nascent Soul cultivators, which is why you flatter the Xuan Tian Sect."
He Jiuhong was well aware of this.
The faction that testified for You Buyu was precisely because they were certain that their Divine Sword Sect currently had no Nascent Soul cultivator in charge.
"But I'm telling you, you're wrong, terribly wrong. Our Divine Sword Sect's Sect Master is someone you can't even imagine."
Upon hearing He Jiuhong's words, You Buyu's lips curled into a mocking smile: "Elder He, are you out of your mind? What nonsense are you spouting here?"
"Hahaha, he's supposed to be a late-stage Nascent Soul expert, yet he's spouting nonsense in public. The Divine Sword Sect is going to lose all face!"
"That's right, give us back the existence we can't afford to offend. Look at the three Nascent Soul stage experts on the head seat before you speak."
"That's right. If your Divine Sword Sect's sect leader is really as powerful as you boast, why hasn't he come out yet?"
Representatives from all sides began to ridicule.
If the sect leader of the Divine Sword Sect is really as powerful as he boasts.
He personally led his team here a long time ago.
However, He Jiuhong remained extremely confident despite the ridicule from the crowd.
"How could you short-sighted fools possibly understand the methods of my sect leader? My sect leader, Mr. Chen, is not only the sect leader of the Divine Sword Sect, but also the head of the Chen family in Yunzhou and the Supreme Elder of the Chifeng Mercenary Group!"
"Upon receiving news of the sea tribe's invasion, he personally dispatched troops from various parts of Yunzhou to gather reinforcements, intending to support Qingzhou."
"Such a righteous act is admired even by us cultivators of Yunzhou, yet you people of Qingzhou criticize him so harshly."
He Jiuhong shook her head as she spoke.
These are her true feelings.
News of the sea creatures' invasion has arrived.
The first thing all the factions in Yunzhou thought about was how to escape.
Besides Chen Tianwen, who would think of supporting Qingzhou, a place where no one knows the people?
Take, for example, their Chifeng Mercenary Group.
If it weren't for Chen Tianwen's sake...
How could he possibly travel hundreds of thousands of miles to the Divine Sword Sect just because Xiuzhu made an empty promise?
Seeing He Jiuhong recounting Chen Tianwen's deeds so seriously...
You Buyu and the representatives of the various forces below laughed even more heartily and unrestrainedly.
"Hahaha, I was wondering why you looked so unfamiliar. Turns out you're barbarians from Yunzhou."
"What do you mean by going to Yunzhou for help? I bet you're just running away to Yunzhou!"
"The people from the Divine Sword Sect are out of their minds, and these mercenaries from Yunzhou aren't much better. These two groups are quite a perfect match!"
Faced with the unbridled mockery from those below.
He Jiuhong calmed down instead, and said in a calm voice, "Alas, your stagnation has limited your vision. The unattainable god in your hearts is nothing but a chicken and a dog in front of Mr. Chen."
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of expressions you'll have when Mr. Chen arrives!"
After saying that, He Jiuhong laughed, looking at everyone as if she were looking at a group of despicable monkeys.
After hearing He Jiuhong's words, You Buyu...
Suddenly enraged, she roared, "You bastard! How dare you, a shrew, speak of a Nascent Soul cultivator!"
Every Nascent Soul cultivator stands at the top of a state's pyramid, a revered figure whom everyone looks up to.
No one dared to insult a Nascent Soul cultivator in public.
He Jiuhong not only insulted them, but also openly mocked them as "a chicken and a dog" in front of all the forces in Qingzhou and even in front of three Nascent Soul cultivators.
This behavior can't even be described as audacious; it's downright suicidal!
"How dare she mock a Nascent Soul cultivator in front of the three sect leaders? I think this shrew has a death wish."
"I think this woman has most likely lost her mind, otherwise why would she do something so stupid!"
"Being exposed in public, this woman must be terrified."
"The Divine Sword Sect has really lost face this time."
"Shameful! The Divine Sword Sect doesn't even have a single Nascent Soul cultivator right now. It's uncertain whether it will even exist in the future!"
Hearing the jeers of the crowd, He Jiuhong couldn't help but smile and shake her head: "You all think I've lost my mind to say such things, but little do you know, what I said is just the truth. It's just that your knowledge and views have limited your vision and you don't understand what I'm saying."
As He Jiuhong finished speaking, she turned to look at Song Yeyun, the sect master of Xuantian Sect, who was sitting in the head seat and shrouded in mysterious light.
She glanced again at You Buyu, who appeared angry but whose eyes were full of schadenfreude.
Finally, looking down at the bustling crowd, he said, "Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. Today's events will be remembered by my Divine Sword Sect, and one day we will surely settle accounts with you all!"
After saying that, He Jiuhong was about to leave.
Her words just now have almost severed ties with the major powers in Qingzhou, so there's no point in her staying here any longer.
However, just as she stepped down from the platform and prepared to leave the main hall...
"Insulting the three sect leaders, spouting nonsense in front of everyone, and still wanting to leave?"
