The crime of colluding with the Demon Cult is indeed a serious one. Once it is proven, Yu Tianji will not only lose his position as the Immortal Lord, but he may even lose his life.

No wonder Yu Tianliu came so late, it turned out he was busy fabricating charges.

When the major sects heard this, they were immediately shocked and began to discuss the matter.

"Impossible." Wei Linguan said: "Tianji Jun personally defeated tens of thousands of demon cult troops, killing countless people, how could they be colluding with each other?"

"You all don't know that even within the Demon Cult, there are factional struggles." Ge Huai said: "Tianji Jun pulled one faction of the Demon Cult, and the one who came to die was another faction."

"How ridiculous! Why would Lord Tianji go to so much trouble to bring the Demon Cult to attack him?" another cultivator scolded.

"Think about it carefully, everyone. Why did the Demon Cult choose to attack Kunlun when Lord Tian Liu was away instead of earlier?" Ge Huai said, "The old Immortal Lord had always been in good health and spirits. Why did he suddenly die when the Demon Cult attacked? Who is the biggest winner of this battle?"

"You mean..."

"I don't dare to speculate rashly, so please understand it for yourselves." Ge Huai said.

As for which direction to understand it, it is clear as day.

Yu Tianliu's intention was clear - Yu Tianji must have colluded with the Demon Cult in secret to promote this war in order to seize the position of the Immortal Lord while his brother was away, and then murdered his father on the eve of the war and seized power in the chaos.

"This..." Everyone's face changed.

This way of seizing power is not without precedent. If Yu Tianji is ambitious and follows this route, it is not impossible.

"Find out on your own?" A cultivator behind Yu Tianji sneered, "After all this talk, it's still just speculation. If the Immortal Lord really did something wrong, why can't Immortal Ge produce any evidence?"

"Yes, where is the evidence?" everyone echoed.

Whether they supported Yu Tianji or suspected him, everyone turned their eyes to Ge Huai and asked him to produce evidence.

Li Yuebai clenched his hands.

"Host, why are you suddenly so nervous?" The system said, "Yu Tianji has not colluded with the Demon Cult. Is there anything we need to be afraid of?"

"Yu Tianliu is not a fool. He dares to send people to shout out the charges in front of all the major immortal sects. He must have prepared false evidence in advance." Li Yuebai said.

Sure enough, when Yu Tianliu heard the word "evidence", his expression immediately became serious.

He turned to face the various Immortal Lords and said sternly, "I dare not doubt my younger brother without authorization. I came here to question him because I have reliable evidence. Although the relationship between family members is precious, I have no choice but to put it aside in the face of justice. I have both witnesses and evidence, please take a look."

As soon as Yu Tianliu gave the order, several monks immediately obeyed and dragged a person up.

Although he is said to be a person, at first glance, it is hard to tell whether he is a human or a ghost. He is thin, with dark skin and scars all over his body. He is tightly chained from head to toe and cannot move. His face is sharp and thin, with strange features and a blue complexion. There are two pointed horns growing between his messy long hair, and there are several fangs in his mouth.

When the major sects saw this person, they immediately frowned and shouted, "Who is this? Judging from his appearance, he looks like a villain from the Demon Sect!"

"Not bad." Yu Tianliu nodded and said, "This person is the evil disciple of the Demon Cult."

Because the demon cults practice evil ways, their appearance will change, such as dark blue skin and fangs, so they are easy to identify.

"What is the purpose of Tian Liujun bringing the demon cult members forward?"

"This person is not an ordinary believer." Yu Tianliu said, "but someone who holds the secrets."

The monks under his command immediately raised their feet and kicked the detained cultist several times, scolding him, "Hurry up and tell me everything you know!"

The Demon Cult member had been captured by Yu Tianliu for some time and had long been trained to be quite obedient. He immediately lowered his head and said, "My name is Zhan Mi, and I am a subordinate of the Demon Cult's Left Protector..."

His voice was shrill and hoarse, making it very unpleasant to listen to.

"Left Protector?" Upon hearing this title, the expressions of the major immortal masters changed.

The one who led the Demon Cult's followers to invade Kunlun this time was the Demon Cult's Right Protector. The Left and Right Protectors in the Demon Cult had always been at odds with each other. This time the Right Protector was defeated by Kunlun and returned in defeat, with his prestige greatly reduced. I'm afraid he will be suppressed by the Left Protector in the Demon Cult.

"After interrogation, I got a piece of information - it was Lord Tianji and the Left Protector of the Demon Cult who colluded with each other to facilitate this war, and both of them benefited from it!" Ge Huai said.

"Is that true?"

"Please listen to the testimony before making your own judgment on the right and wrong," said Ge Huai.

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhan Mi. Zhan Mi secretly looked up at Yu Tianliu and said, "I am the attendant of the Left Protector and I am very appreciated. Although I am of low status and my words carry little weight, I am still considered a confidant..."

Someone present asked a few questions about the Left Protector of the Demon Cult, and Zhan Mi answered them fluently, showing that his identity was not false.

Zhan Mi said, "A few days ago, the Left Protector was discussing important matters with his close subordinates. I heard from him that he had received a handwritten letter from Tianji Jun, which mentioned cooperation matters... Tianji Jun said that he wanted to inherit the position of Kunlun Immortal Lord, but unfortunately his father is in poor health and his brother is quite powerful. If nothing unexpected happens, he will have no hope of succession."

This statement coincides with people's speculation.

"Lord Tianji also said that he knew that the Left Protector and the Right Protector were not on good terms... so he suggested that the Left Protector facilitate this battle and let the Right Protector lead people to attack Kunlun..." Zhan Mi went on to say a lot of details, but this was roughly the meaning.

"Mr. Tian Liu, although you have witnesses now, you have no evidence. What's more, you can't trust the words of the cult members..." Wei Linguan said.

"Of course there is evidence." Yu Tianliu sighed and said, "When I first saw it, I also felt unconvinced and didn't dare to doubt you, but it was written in black and white, so I had to believe it."

Zhan Mi took out a golden purse from his arms with trembling hands in iron cuffs, opened the purse, and inside was a handful of black ash.

"Is this the evidence that Tian Liujun mentioned?" Someone frowned and said, "What can a handful of black ash prove?"

"Although it is just a handful of black ash, the immortals all have the Daoist magic, so they must know the art of recovery." Ge Huai said: "As long as you activate the recovery art, you can restore the flying ash in a short time."

"In order to prove his identity and gain the trust of the Left Protector, Tianji wrote this letter himself and told the Left Protector to destroy it after reading it." Zhan Mi said, "After the Left Protector discussed it with his men, he threw the letter into the alchemy furnace, and it burned to ashes in a moment."

In this world of cultivating immortals, both the righteous and evil sects regard alchemy as an important matter, but the smelting methods are different. Li Yuebai has seen several alchemy furnaces of the Demon Sect, which are smaller in appearance than those of the immortal cultivation families.

"I had a premonition at the time that following the Left Protector might not end well, so I was cautious. After the Left Protector and his men left, I secretly took the ashes out of the alchemy furnace and hid them." Zhan Mi said.

"If that's the case, then the Left Protector was too careless." Wei Jingyao said with a smile, "He actually allowed a villain like you to do something behind his back."

"It's because I have always been loyal and I have a deep hatred for the Right Protector, so I will never join the Right Protector's side." Zhan Mi said, "Later, the Left Protector sent me to the Right Protector's camp to monitor the Right Protector... and promised to send someone to rescue me from danger when the Right Protector's army was defeated. Unexpectedly, this promise was not fulfilled at all. I was just a discarded pawn of the Left Protector! Therefore, after being captured by Tian Liujun, I made up my mind to tell the whole story."

"Since your Demon Cult army was defeated by Yu Tianji, why were they captured by Yu Tianliu?" someone asked puzzled.

"After Lord Tianji defeated us, he did not send anyone to pursue us. We took the opportunity to flee south, thinking we could escape. However, we were found by Lord Tianliu's men..." Zhan Mi said, "I have been carrying this piece of paper with the seal on it. When I was interrogated by Lord Tianliu, I had to take it out to save my life."

Yu Tianliu said nothing, his expression calm.

"Can we borrow the ashes for us to have a look?" Several immortal masters asked hesitantly.

"Of course." Yu Tianliu nodded and sent someone to present the golden bag filled with ashes.

The art of restoration is relatively advanced and difficult to learn, and there are only a few immortals present who know how to do it. They activated their mental skills and put in a lot of effort before they were able to restore the ashes into a piece of paper.

The letter was displayed in front of everyone, and the handwriting on it was clear. It was exactly as Zhan Mi said. It was a letter written by Yu Tianji to the Left Protector. There was even Yu Tianji's signature and seal at the end of the letter.

The magic power could not last long. After the immortals saw clearly, the letter turned back into a handful of ashes.

"People of decent character act uprightly and would never burn letters - it would be useless to burn them vertically, because decent magic can restore them." Ge Huai said: "The Demon Cult does not have such magic, so the Demon Cult's Left Protector neglected it."

"Is this letter...really written by you?" Li Yuebai asked Yu Tianji in a low voice.

"How is that possible?" Yu Tianji was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and refused to admit it.

"But the handwriting, signature, and seal all look very real." Li Yuebai had to admit it.

"That must have been forged by my brother." Yu Tianji whispered, "If my brother puts in a little more effort, he can forge it..."

"But in the eyes of all the great immortal masters, this is true, and the witnesses can justify themselves in every way." Li Yuebai sighed.

"Lord Tianji, look..." After listening to Zhan Mi's testimony and reading the letter, several immortal masters turned their gazes to Yu Tianji.

"Such testimony and evidence are not enough to convince the public." Li Yuebai said in a deep voice: "Letters are easy to forge."

"However, the testimonies of the cult members are reasonable in every aspect and can corroborate each other..." someone whispered.

"That still cannot prove that this letter came from Tianji Jun's hand." Li Yuebai said.

"The handwriting is the same, the seal is the same, do you still want to make excuses, Lord Tianji?" Ge Huai refused to give in.

"Forget it. There is no point in talking any more." Yu Tianliu said loudly, "I believe that the major immortal sects will make their own judgments. I do not want to get involved any more today. I will take my leave first. If you are willing to repent, you can come to me and confess your sins. If you are stubborn and keep making mistakes, I will come here tomorrow to make a final decision."

He waved his long sleeves, and with a clanging sound, he drew out his long sword, leaped forward, and flew away on the sword. The monks under him also followed him and flew away with their swords, and soon they disappeared into the horizon.

Although the person left, the ominous aura he left behind enveloped everyone. The monks from all the major sects began to whisper to each other and stared at Yu Tianji with suspicion.

"System, I'm afraid today's meeting cannot be held." Li Yuebai sighed.
