Yun Zheng raised an eyebrow and said with a half-smile, "Those who can control demonic energy are demonic cultivators. That's quite an interesting line of thinking. If your Grand Ancestors and the heads of those great families can also control demonic energy, then aren't they also demonic cultivators? Don't use your shallow understanding to try to define and slander me."
The other geniuses showed subtle embarrassment on their faces.
At this time, a genius from the Yuchi family's side branch sneered, "Yun Zheng, you are simply talking nonsense! Maybe you are a demon cultivator, and you want to deceive us under the guise of the Grand Ancestor?!"
As soon as the words fell, the whole audience fell into silence for a moment.
Feng Yuanqiao stepped forward and shouted angrily, "Yuchi Zuoyue, what are you barking about? Even though Yun Zheng killed your Second Young Master, you don't have to slander her like that! Her mother is my cousin, and her father is Yun Junyue, an orthodox human! Do you think everyone is as shameless and full of lies as you?!"
Yuchi Zuoyue's face turned red after being confronted by Feng Yuanqiao.
The other geniuses cast strange glances at him, like ants gnawing at his body.
Before Yun Zheng could fight back, Feng Yuanqiao took the initiative. She looked up and met Feng Yuanqiao's eyes that were seeking credit, and laughed in her heart, what a proud little cousin.
She secretly took note of Yuchi Zuoyue and would find a suitable opportunity to kill him later. Slandering her as a demon cultivator was no small matter. If the slander succeeded, not only would she be surrounded and killed by the crowd, but even her friends would be implicated.
Feng Xinglan and his companions stared at Yuchi Zuoyue with cold expressions. If Feng Yuanqiao had not taken the initiative, they would have already taken Yuchi Zuoyue down!
Nangong Qingqing looked around and said coldly: "You are all smart people. I hope that rumors will stop with the wise, and don't foolishly become a knife in the hands of others."
The faces of the geniuses were not looking good either. They stared at Yuchi Zuoyue intently, with murderous intent in their eyes.
He actually wanted to use them to kill people!
A Tianjiao immediately bowed and said, "We were deceived by carelessness. We are very sorry."
Yun Zheng nodded indifferently.
…
This little episode comes to an end for now.
Yun Zheng withdrew her gaze, raised her palm and blasted out a ball of magic energy that was extracted from the magic crystal towards the slightly raised point.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the demonic energy smashed through the wall, gradually breaking apart from the slightly raised point.
The Tianjiao were shocked: "!"
It turns out that only demonic energy can break down this wall! If Yun Zheng hadn't been here, they probably wouldn't have been able to find this key point!
The wall exploded and collapsed, gradually revealing the scene ahead.
It was a staircase built in the blood-red magic pool, long and winding, leading straight upwards, and should lead to... the second floor of the palace!
