Leng Chen, being a true disciple, had no choice but to step forward and speak.
"I killed them; it has nothing to do with the two of them!"
The man in the Daoist couple said angrily.
His injuries have stabilized considerably, and now he has stepped forward resolutely to take full responsibility.
"It was my senior brother and I who killed them, so arrest us!"
The girl's eyes were resolute as she gripped the man's hand tightly, refusing to let go no matter how he tried to pry it away.
"You? You need to have that kind of strength too!"
Leng Chen sneered.
"With your combined strength, let alone Junior Brother Xu, even Junior Brother Liu, who is in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, wouldn't stand a chance against you two! Let alone kill you!"
Originally, Leng Chen had no intention of targeting Chen Tianwen, but after seeing the sword he had just used to stab the Nascent Soul stage evil spirit, a sense of crisis arose in his heart!
One Xia Anyu is enough for the Divine Sword Sect!
There's no need for another masked junior brother who can harm a Nascent Soul stage cultivator even if he's only at the Qi Refining stage!
"What are you standing there for! Take all three of them down!"
Leng Chen shouted hurriedly.
Several core disciples, their faces somewhat displeased, surrounded the three.
Although they needed to curry favor with Leng Chen, they were still core disciples. Normally, they wouldn't feel anything after being shouted at by Leng Chen, but in front of the most powerful senior sister, they suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
The girl and the man's faces were ashen.
"I'm so sorry, I've dragged you into this."
The man said dejectedly.
Chen Tianwen shook his head and looked at Xia Anyu with great interest.
Xia Anyu frowned and shouted, "Stop!"
Who gave them the audacity to take down Senior Jun Wu?!
This is a Void Refinement Grandmaster, an ancestor of the Divine Sword Sect who lived a second life.
Even if the sect leader himself came, he would have to be respectful and smile obsequiously!
Is there no senior figure among those who can capture you?
They really don't know how to spell the word "death"!
The core disciples immediately stopped.
The veins on Leng Chen's forehead throbbed. Why was Xia Anyu always going against him?!
If Xia Anyu knew what he was thinking, she would definitely curse him out. Was she going against him? She was saving him!
"Elder Xia, although you are an elder, you cannot abuse your power for personal gain. These three men conspired to kill two junior brothers. There are witnesses and physical evidence. Why can't they be arrested?!"
Leng Chen said sternly.
His eyes were filled with madness. If Xia Anyu hadn't been there, he would have killed the masked man long ago!
"Are the witnesses and physical evidence present?"
Xia Anyu snorted coldly, and with a light clench of her hand, a powerful spiritual force instantly surged forth, making the person standing next to her feel as if they were about to fly away.
The oppressive aura suddenly dissipated.
"Where are the witnesses?"
Xia Anyu narrowed her eyes, sweeping her gaze over the crowd with disdain. Her peach blossom eyes were filled with endless killing intent.
If these fools really dare to provoke Jun Wu, she wouldn't mind sending them on their way herself!
silence!
Utter silence!
Under her oppressive aura, the disciples' faces turned red, beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, and they had to use all their strength and grit their teeth to keep from kneeling.
"Leng Chen, where are the witnesses?"
Xia Anyu looked at Leng Chen with a cold gaze and a threatening voice.
Leng Chen finally lowered his head.
"It was a mistake on my part."
Leng Chen felt a wave of dejection wash over him, and a sudden sense of relief washed over him.
"Then why aren't you backing down?"
"Walk."
Leng Chen and several core disciples slunk away.
The girl and the man were dumbfounded.
"this……"
What's going on?
Xia Anyu's gaze swept over them.
"You can go now. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to Red Valley to find me."
"Yes, Elder Xia."
The two were overjoyed. Although they had many questions, they dared not ask any and quickly left.
After taking only a few steps, they faintly heard Xia Anyu speaking to the masked junior brother.
"Greetings..."
The two of them suddenly stumbled, their feet feeling unsteady.
They just called this person, whom Elder Xia had to pay respects to, "Junior Brother".
